Does anyone have any experience with this? It would save me a lot of money but I also don't want to flush it down the toilet.

I would not buy anything electronic from Amazon used or new. You never know what you are getting (Real thing? Counterfeit? Working? Quality repair parts? Undisclosed customer return? Sold by Amazon or third party? Who knows — they mix stock at the warehouse).

Most manufacturers sell their own refurbs on their own website and they come with a warranty.
