How to read a review here
  • We own it

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

  • Owner reports and docs

    The maker's own documentation and the live listing, plus what owners report in forums, comment threads and independent tests, counted.

  • Documentation only

    The docs and the listing, where the owner evidence was too thin to count. Rare, and we name it rather than dress it up.

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