    Top notch supreme build and performs as great as it looks.
    This is worth the price. You get what you pay for. Some things you can get away being cheap on, these items aren’t those things. You can start out cheaper but not frugal cheap. This doesn’t everything it says it does. It’s heavy letting you know it’s built to last for years.
