New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener?


Anyone tried one of these here yet, and your impressions/review, please?

I think I would look to do it with the optional sleeve/heat system myself.

I looked at the website about a week ago, decided to hold off until they come out with the promised 7" adapter and the pouch, then I'll probaby bite (even though I'd guess that out of several thousand records in my collection, I'd only have occasion to use it on maybe a hundred or two at most, and of those I could probably count on both hands the few that are actually unplayable as-is).
somewhere in the archives here there is a discussion of how to flatten warped LP's using your oven and 2 pieces of glass. I bought 2 granite tiles at Home Depot (the shiny finished ones, and follow that procedure: heat oven to 200deg, place LP between 2 (room temp) tiles, turn oven off, set the tiles w/LP in the oven and leave it there for several hrs. Remove and test . . .

I've done 2 LP's and had perfect results. Cost me $12 I think for the tiles.
I've always been too chickensh*t to try that with a valued record...
. . . so was I, but I had one record with the edge so warped I couldn't play the first 2 tracks. It was possible to find a replacement, but would have cost. I tried a less valued record first, and then the one I really wanted to fix. There's no evidence anything was ever done to it (ie the warp, or the fix) .
Zaikesman,

Mfr says the pouch will be available mid September and they will offer bundled pricing.
