Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Never actually used the product, but within 10 seconds of getting the product the tightening cord on the cover came out of its fastener. Not difficult, but not as easy to undo the probe once its extended. The top part has this lock, to keep the proble extended, but when pushing to unlock, it makes all sorts of squeaky noises.
