" The Body Scout is the kind of wild, inventive adventure that i'd been searching for. It scratched a special itch: sly and smart, weird and wonderful, all in one package. A little bit Philip K. Dick, and I detect hints of Julio Cortazar too. Lincoln Michel is a wildly talented author and this novel is something special indeed."-- Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling

    The quality, condition, value, and appearance of this electric water hot pot is excellent. I've been using it for a while and have had zero complaints or issues with it. The packaging that it arrived in was excellent and the shipping was fast. I highly recommend this seller and would purchase from them again.
