So I ordered this set after reading all the rave reviews. To my great surprise, I received welding rods. Both ends of the large poles have a flat raised patch that easily snags on the delicate lace items they are designed for. The numbers correspond perfectly to the type of welding wire, you can even see them! The sturdy storage tube is made of thick cardboard, like a mailbox or a tube in which a poster arrives.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging

I use the product for my lace scarves and…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
