" ... Lasted just enough time (35 days) to not get my money back (30 day return policy). ... "
" ... Glad I could return it, unsatisfied for sure ... "
" ... It wasn't working so Amazon sent me a replacement. ... Both of the ones they sent me did not work. ... "
" ... Wasted almost $15. ... "
" ... Buyer beware - though they did refund my purchase in it's entirety. ... "
" ... returning this piece, pronto ... "
" ... Ok, I don't usually write reviews even for products I return but this particular item was just so bad it needed to be shared with other potential buyers. ... Even though you can return it in 30 days (which is great and usually warrants a second star for ease of return), but it just isn't worth your time to even try and that is why it receives a 1 star from me. ... "
" ... I have already printed my return label and will send this back tomorrow. ... "
