Other customer she helped they ask questions same thing she said she really didn't know, but yet she didn't seek advice from any of the other workers. So if you're new to this stuff have questions and the sales person cannot answer them strongly suggest that you ask them to go get the information or get a different sales person. Other than that, I would recommend this business.
