Yeh, but even just checking all the reviews is exhausting innit?!I know!!! The choices are overwhelming, I hate it! I picked the one with the most positive reviews, not that it's any guarantee.

I'm quite pleased with the app as well, very intuitive and it looks like it's simple to contact customer service should anything go wrong, but, nothing has gone wrong yet, so I can't comment on what their customer service is like... Fingers crossed I never have to find out!

How long is the power cord? I like the idea of the calling feature, because mine totally knows his name and comes running every time I call him.
I have sachets of dessicant, so sorted for that.
