From watching reviews on the web or actually handling it over the weekend it is clear to me it is made to withstand some serious use. Seit ich sie ausgepackt habe, habe ich sie jeden Tag getragen. Still came out perfect! I dropped the case numerous times and it has not fallen out once. If a windows laptop is so portable and still more powerful, it price would be above CAD$1200. I wear a size 8 and ordered an 8 and they fit perfectly. Charging is fast and I use them several hours a day and only charge every two to three days. This bench arrived and my husband put it together for me. But they’re under $50. Score!
