I was very excited to find a heat knife for what I thought was a reasonable price. It got really hot which was good but you have pay close attention to not melt things by accident. I loved it until it stopped working after 5 uses. I turned pluged it in the other day for it just to never heat up, I pushed the cord in some which I had to start doing after use 3 but nothing ever came of it.I really did love it until it stopped working.
