He had one malfunction, the "solenoid" he said, got sticky, he bought another one and swapped out the "solenoid" and has been using it everyday since, he sent me a video of it in use at 180F. I HATE chinesium, been trying very hard not to use chinese plumbing in my RO upgrades the last few years, but dang, SL wants $800 for theirs.
