My bag fell off randomly after wearing it for just 30 days. I only have nine left in the box. I don't think I'm going to make it. Should I go with a different brand?

I have read some of your other messages and it seems you're a funny guy. With this one, try a welder.

Uhh. What was the question?
What is the issue? Crayons... draw me a picture.
30 days wear time? 1 appliance. Did you just wake up from a coma?
