worth the investment for sure [SEP] i love getting my nails done and i especially love getting gel manicures my problem with going to the salon is actually finding the time to go this cool device has been such a nice investment it works exactly how the salon gel dryers work it s easy to set up and directions are simple as well the amazon link to the product has some good suggestions not the types of polishes to use so i appreciate that i ve done or at home manicures so far and i m very impressed this is such a great investment especially if you re like me and have a hard time finding the time to get to the salon totally recommend
