Aggregate ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a notable share are one- or two-star. With no supplied written feedback, the reasons for either positive or negative ratings are unknown. Treat the ratings as a limited indication of customer experience, not evidence that the pressure sensor, timers or claimed battery runtime performed as stated.
