    Use the older hilco frame warmer at work daily.

    heats up in about 20 seconds. Never any problems, the one in the lab stays on all day sometimes.

    dont really care for the newer ones though, they take twice as long to heat up, and don't get as hot either.

    I would also suggest to get one of each, a salt pan, and a hot air blower, at different times both will perform better then the other, big thick zyl frame, probably the salt pan, end of a small zyl temple hot air might work better, rhinestones, another example of where the hot air might be better
