Never received. No response from customer service
Never received my product. It’s been 2 months and paid for 10 day shipping. Never received a response both when I requested the tracking number, and when I inquired about not receiving my order. They only choose to show their positive reviews. Fraud. Trust pilot has many other similar reviews to mine.
