Review: Me agrado la atención y el servicio
Review: Product did not last a year after using only a handful of times - Ordered this product in November 2021. The gauge is not functioning properly and it has only been used a handful of times. It hasn't been a year since I purchased it and it has quit working properly. Customer service was no help and first tried to tell me the product was ordered in 2019. Once they realized the item was purchased last November they still refused to help stating " they only warranty products for 90 days".
