Only 12 ratings on amazon.com, too few to call. In our score this is 1.75 of 2 points. How we score
- On capillus.com, 4 reviews like the short 6-minute daily session and call the cap easy to use. capillus.com
- On capillus.com, the most repeated complaint is fit: 5 reviews say the cap is too big, loose or hard to keep balanced on the head. capillus.com
“The only negative is that it is so big and hard to keep on my head. I have to hold it on so it is impossible to do anything else while I wear it.”
“Hats a bit big but unit seems to be working as directed.”
“Biggest issue is the battery - it will barely go 4 sessions of 6 minutesi. Mostly, I have to charge it after 3 session. Terribly annoying.”
“However, from day one, though noticed issues turning the system on, sometimes that on and off button doesn't engage the unit to turn on which I get nervous about.”
“I am pleased with the quick delivery and quality of the product, charger, etc.”
“My customer service experience has been absolutely 100% satisfactory”
