Product Reviews
Pros
It is quicker than hand foiling but I'm picky about it being even on both sides and it is NOT so back to doing it by hand
Cons
Wasted too much foil trying to get it even on both sides. Wing nut does not tighten to spot needed so it happens.
Other Thoughts
Wish my glastar foiler didn't burn in my house fire!! Looking for used one as it worked perfect!

Pros
Reduced spray, large work area, easy to assemble, nice storage tray.
Cons
Not sure how to empty water tray when full. Looks like it could be impossible to lift off without spilling.
Other Thoughts
So far all seems good, I’m hoping the bits last as long as my older bits, but some reviews suggest that may not be the case.
Pros
Lights up really nice and stays firmly in place
Cons
When taking off warning stickers a thin coating on the shield got a hole in it. Not sure if the coating is meant to be temporary or not as directions never mention it.
Other Thoughts
Could be a bit bigger to reduce debris

Some of the leaves are very fragile.
