Very poorly manufactured .. leaks alot, and they dont tell you that if it leaks over the charging area which it most likely will, since its got no protection against it with the poor quality product,and defect model, you'll be leaking majority of the cartridge and going through the pods over and over.. to their defense, they get ya with the fine print..tells u in tiny fine print in the instructions to hold it upright or it will leak, and that if it leaks into the blah blah you're in for another Pod.. if I knew this was such a pain in the ass to carry in my pocket or bag I would have never bought it.. it got all over everything and was a complete waste of money the model s NOT mastered let alone ready to sell..my cartridges started leaking upon opening , and the pod is completely useless and very inconvenient to have with you unless you want to carry it like a drink upright all the time, its more an pain than pleasure .. spare yourselves the headaches..
