    Mine is over 3 years old now. I like it so much I bought three more to put away when they were on various half-price sales here in Australia in case Oliso ever stopped selling them here.

    The Olisos are sold in Australia and we use the same voltage as the UK (240v). However, it would probably be too expensive to import one.

    I don't think I will be purchasing any more classes than the 60+ I already own. I'm not very optimistic about the future of Craftsy/Bluprint.

    Thanks for letting me know, Cari.

    Have you fitted yours correctly?
