As Expected

This works very well. I've been using it for over a week now and haven't had any problems with it. I only used two large heads. As another reviewer said, I couldn't unplug it either, but that didn't limit my use of other devices.

Pros
  • Crafting and Sewing
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging

Works as expected

Works well. But it's not much different from a cheap plastic bottle, and the slurry needs to be the right consistency or it clogs easily. As for the difficulty in removing the metal part, I only had a problem with it the first time, and I twisted it with pliers (the direction is conveniently indicated on the packaging). It is now fairly easy to disassemble the applicator for cleaning.

Pros
  • Porcelain and ceramic tools
Cons
  • No automatic

I can't unscrew the metal connector

The metal connector needs to twist and unscrew. I couldn't remove it, and neither could three other people I asked to help with my pottery class. It hurts a bit, but I can soak up the color gel (or cleaning water) with it. I haven't used it much, but other than not spoofing like it should, it works great for trail-trailing so far.

Pros
  • Force
Cons
  • The cable is shorter than other picks
