Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ok, so, I was hesitant about purchasing this because of all of the negative reviews ... but, I found that the negative reviewing people are using it incorrectly. To be fair, though, it does not say ANYWHERE within the directions on how to use this embosser correctly. So, upon using it, you MUST NOT leave the plastic cap protector on it OR IT MAY MELT. There is a screw on the clear cap (yes, with the sticker) that must be unscrewed and the clear plastic cap twisted off BEFORE using. IF you leave it on, it will be a fire hazard. I don't know why it's screwed on except to make you aware that the tip is hot so you need to use caution with it - and, to avoid touching it to other surfaces. I hope this helps as the embossing tool is a handy little tool that really does a nice job turning my embossing powder in to nice accents on my paper!
