Pros
The screw is secure and safe, I have a 4.5"x3.5" double thick fused project on mine with no fear of it falling off like clips always give me.
The bases themselves have a piece that comes out to press flat against the back of the glass to help provide support and keep the shade from turning if bumped.
The on/offrocker is convenient and marked and the white base is a true white, not grey or almond looking.
Cons
It takes incandescent type bulbs so it sticks out a bit far from the wall, not an issue with mine, but I suppose it could be for some folks
Other Thoughts
I love night lights, they're the perfect way to show off both the lit and unlit versions of things!

Pros
The nice thing about dicro slide is that un-like etching or removing dicro coating from glass to make shapes stand out, there is no dicro wasted.
I've regularly used shaped punches (like hole punches) to make fun shapes or patterns and then used the left over bits from around the punched out shapes to make confetti Some of the negative space shapes are more fun than the punched ones ;) Best part is being able to combine multi colors of dicro in one project.
Other Bonuses: It's easier to carry with me between home and shop, I can put it on any color glass I want (on white frequently works well)
Cons
The dicro can sometimes come off the film, I've had it both left on the paper, and come off in the water. If the slide is older or even stored imperfectly, this is much more common.
Some colors are more sensitive to over-firing/re-firing than others and while some colors are just as brilliant as regular coated glass dicro, others seem to be less intense, and more see thru. Slide often doesn't work well capped to start with, so I've tried tack firing it on, then capping to do my full fuse but sometimes the image distorts doing that.
Other Thoughts
I wish the squares were longer, I get they use small samples so you can see the color, but I like using it as edging,and this makes for more cutting and piecing.
Pros
easy to cut premarked pieces with minimal to no chips; easy to set up and clean; super portable
Cons
would like to see a longer saw arm, if possible
Other Thoughts
I found cutting pieces with the saw v/s the typical glass cutter to be more precise, less waste and practically eliminated the use of the grinder because the pieces look as if they were ground down after sawing. This is a time saver for me.
Pros
So simple and easy.
Cons
Should of bought one sooner!
Other Thoughts
I cut lots of small pieces for jewelry making and this is a real time saver
