    Reviewed in Australia on November 10, 2023
    Came home to pools of glue coming from the box. Top and come off and plastic bag had filled with glue and had emptied into box
    Now I am being asked to return the box - which is completely sodden and return the glue -that has gone everywhere and taken an hour to clean up.

    I am SO DISAPPOINTED
    I CANT FOND A WAY TO COMMUNICATE I can’t return box and product - cause I had to throw everything out

    And so cant return by the date that is being demanded -so will be charged twice
