80W UV Nail Lamp, Canvalite Nail UV Lamp Professional LED Nail Lamp Auto-Sensing Nail Machine for Gel Polish with 4 Timer Setting 10/30/60/99S

In a few short words.... A-MA-ZING!! This seems to be a high quality gel light. I've only had it for a few days, but I've used it a few times already. So far, the quality is just like the recent salons I've visited. What I like the most is the curing consistency. I bought a gel light on Amazon a few years ago, and it didn't seem to work. I've learned to read the gel instructions more CAREFULLY. Some gel manufacture instructions will tell you that you need to cure longer than normal. One gel builder, IBD, says to cure for 2-3 minutes. Most polish gels only require 30 seconds per coat. Either way, this lamp was able to cure both. I'm very satisfied that I can achieve salon results on MY TIME at home. I'm very picky about how much nail 'filing' I need. My nails grow better when they are not filed too much....I digress. Anyway, this is a great buy. How long will it continue to work? Not sure, but if it doesn't last at least a year; I'll report back. If I use it once every 3-6 weeks; that's only 8-17 times per year. It better last. :-)On a side note, I'd say definitely practice your at home polishing technique in order to achieve neatly polished nails like the salon pros. Binge watch how-to-polish-your-own-nails on YouTube, and practice with regular nail polish. Practice makes progress. I never thought I could get even neat coats, but I didn't give up. Gel is even more temperamental, since it doesn't dry....at all...until it hits the light. So if you are moving your hands before curing, the gel could run and become uneven. Practice practice.Just my two cents. Happy polishing! :-)

Okay so yes it sparks a little but it has never been dangerous, nor should you worry about it too much. When cheap products are used, that often happens. BUT LET ME TELL YOU, I purchased this before COVID and i'm glad I did because I perfected doing my own nails since all the salons were closed. I am going on almost 3 years of having this $18 nail uv lamp and it is just now starting to not work, and that is partly my fault. When wrapping the cord, I would bunch the ends and it eventually wore down the hard plastic pieces that hold the wiring in place. I have gotten hundreds of uses out of this thing and I couldn't have been more pleased with it. Just now writing a review because I am purchasing another one! If I was to weigh all the pros and cons, I would still get it.

It took me a couple tries... lol. The best advise I can give it to use VERY thin coats of polish and use the brighter light feature. One thing I did not know is that each coat will still be tacky to the touch, even after you bake it, until the you apply and bake the top coat. I know that is probably a "duh" for most of you, but for those like me who didn't know- now you do.There's a learning curve (for me) that made my second attempt more flawless (I have a new appreciation for the salon I've been going to for years; those who can do this well are true artists!)

I’ve had mine over a year. I mainly started using it for my toenails because I like the dipping powder for my hand nails. But today I did my nails with DND gel polish and I used it. I can put both hands inside if I carefully put one hand over the other. I do store it in the box when immediately after I use it and its for personal use and I can go a month with the polish on my toes. We’ll see how long before I need to redo my nails.

I did a lot of research before purchasing this item. I was hoping not to need such a high wattage lamp. I am glad I picked this one.So far, I have used the Gellen brand nail polishes. The curing time is about 120 seconds plus per coat at double setting. I am still playing around to see if less curing time works.The lamp is light weight and easy to use.It does not remember previous curing time setting as stated. You have to push button each time.There is not light on top to indicate that 80 watts is on. You can tell by the brightness in the lamp as to weather you have the double brightness on or not on.I did purchase the UV gloves. Before I would do my nails a couple times a year, so I was not concerned with exposure. Now that I have it at home, i know I will use more often.

My package arrived on time and was un-damaged. I have had no issues and the instructions were easy to understand and follow. When used correctly, this is a great UV Lamp for Gel Polishes that require curing. I have dropped it, and my 2-year-old has thrown it around and it still survived, so this light seems durable too. The top and bottom disconnect so you can easily clean it if necessary. It is big enough to fit your hand or foot inside comfortably. 10/10 Recommend. Don't waste your money on an expensive light, get this one and save some money.

I have been wanting this machine for a while now and have been on the search for the right one. The UV power is very nice you can feel the heat on your nails when you are curing. I love the 3 different settings as far as time, but I always use the 60 second setting. It comes with many tools that are very helpful and I couldn’t get over how light weight this was and so easy to assemble. Looks just like the picture, and works great! Keeps nails long lasting.

I love this lamp. It cures everything from gel polish, to polygel, to hard gel and more. Fast, light weight and works perfect. I love that the bottom is attached with magnets so I can use it to dry my test swatches on my silicone mat or put over my foot without worry of touching my polish to inside the lamp. It also has a low heat setting for hard gel so you don't burn yourself.
