I would recommend this to a friendShort lived
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately this only lasted for 4 times of use, and then started electrical sparking and I had to return it for a refund. Maybe I got unlucky this time, but I would consider the same make/model again.
