The Luke Warm Gel Dispenser,
December 7, 2003 M. J OBRIEN (Oak Point, TX United States) - See all my reviews
I purchased this yesterday. It states "Hot Gel", states that gel comes out as gel, has warnings about getting it too hot.I found that at the full setting the gel came out as luke warm foam. At low setting (tried this just in case the labels were backwards) the gel came out same temp as the can.A lot of trouble to get nothing but a can with a 120 vac cord attached.I had read a review a few years ago about the shaving cream product and that it was too hot. Well they more than made up for it here.DONT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS PRODUCT.

Better than previous reviews indicate,
November 19, 2005 W. Marx "Sybarite" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
I've been using my Hot Gel Machine for several weeks now, and find that it does a most acceptable job of heating the Gilette gel to a temperature that's plenty warm enough for me.
As a long-time user of the Conair Hot Lather machine, I wonder if my expectations were more in line with what Conair intended - while I appreciate the comments about the gel dispensed not being all that warm, I can also understand that, particularly with gel, it would be easy to have it be TOO hot, and cause burns.
At the very minimum, I'm very pleased with not having to put room-temperature gel on my face, and wait for it to morph into foam. Especially since my bathroom is not all that warm! *G*
If you're tired of cold gel, give this product a try - I'm enjoying it!

A luke warm reception to this gift,
December 27, 2003 R. Moroney "hackney" (Indiana) - See all my reviews
Received this item for Christmas and was looking forward to an
exciting experience on the 26th. It was not to be. I measured the temperature of the gel with a digital thermometer
as it exited the "Hot Gel Machine";94.5 degrees F on average, and that's on the highest setting.
Luke warm would be a generous description. I didn't bother
measuring any lower settings.I thought it would be warmer than skin temperature!
