@Lourditas, my daughter took from 3 to 4 years.Now it has a bomb with a constructed continuous meter.You just have to watch the skin more because it is much more sensitive, but it took it without problems (Freestyle).
It cost 60 euros every 15 days or so .....
He was expensive, but served to know his curve (he had many ups and downs).
All the best
