This product arrived warped due to being very poorly packed. It was in a very flimsy cardboard box with one of those plastic pillows beside it, basically not doing anything. Being out of round, it doesn't work very well. We can't really get it back into shape. It's such junk, though, that we're just going to eat the $20 rather than spending more money on return shipping so we can get another one.

My advice would be to avoid anything from this company given their history of poor packing and ... Read More
