How to read a review here
  • Checked hands on

    We own it and use it. The numbers, the wear and the annoyances are ours.

  • Spec sheet only

    We read the listing, the manual and the maker's own docs, and say so in the first paragraph rather than the small print.

Every page also names who should skip it. If the answer is that yours is fine, that is the review.
