Visor was detached upon arrival.
And sinceusing it as a key ring I have lost the visor
The service has been awful
Many weeks waiting for my items to arrive
No communication from the company to me
I have emailed and left an enquiry through the website but no reply at all
I have had more communication from the company since my delivery arrived, (asking for a review)
The product is ok but the service is so bad
Reading the other reviews many people have found this to be the case

Kim S.4/5Verified
I bought this for my partner as a gift for Christmas and they loved it, so far the quality has been great. They have it on thier keys and as most keys do they take a beating sometimes and this buddy has held up wonderfully. Shipping was good even to Australia! For a small owned business they are extremely communicative and that's something I really appreciate.
