I purchased my product a few months ago and haven’t had the time to write a review. So, to be brutally honest, this is a great product. The first time I had my skates sharpened, I had to drive a ways out of my way to get it done. Since my first sharpening, I won’t let anyone sharpen my skates without a Sparx. There is a noticeable difference and had no idea what I was missing. Now I can sharpen my skates at any time, any place. I also recommend the edge checker. I bought a pair of girls skates for my daughter and came with a free sharpening. I knew I was going to re-do it anyways so I let the kid sharpen the skates. When I went home and checked a few days later, I couldn’t believe how badly done they were. The Sparx machine fixed it so the blades were level and sharp in a matter of minutes. Anyways, I come from a family that plays hockey and the wife figure skates so I am going to be buying the figure skating adapter soon. My brother is a goalie, so I will be using the goalie risers for his skates too. Sparx has really cornered the market and I’m glad I invested my money in this product, and all their products so far. Thanks and I hope this was helpful if anyone is on the fence reading this review. You will not be disappointed.
