Review (4/5): Lightweight portable but comes with flaws
Only used it for a day and it works okay. I don't have experience using other uv lamps so i can't do a comparison. The gel top coat doesn't seem to solidify completely after trying to cure it for 60s followed by another 60s (it is dry to the touch though) and I did 2 thin coats and cured them separately. I got dents on my nails after poking them using moderate force... Used the lamp again but it won't harden any further.
I used a bright orange red regular nail polish after the base coat and let it dry for about 40min and then went on to apply the top coat. I assume it's mainly the problem of the color coat not being gel so I think I should continue to test it with other gel polishes. So far I give it 4 stars instead of 3 just because it saved a lot of time compared to my regular nail polish routine.
Major cons due to the lightweight collapsible design:
1. The legs are kinda flimsy
2. It's not closed on 3 sides so uv light gets everywhere from all 4 sides. I'd wear sunscreen/sunglasses while using this.
