Updates bug me too, but on mine they usually just restart the stick and apps come back after a reboot. The remote is lousy so I rely on the phone app for typing. Makes an old TV usable, nothing more.
Worked fine for about 9–12 months then steam got weak and a small leak showed up. Tried to source seals and support was slow, parts are annoying to find. It cleaned well until then but I just replaced it instead of fiddling with repairs.
Roughly 45 minutes for me too, enough for a small car and a couple bikes but not a big patio run. Filling from a bucket is a bit fiddly and it won’t shift crusted mud without soaking and a brush.
Thanks, that matches what I saw. I think it’s mostly masking not actually removing paint, so I’ll just reapply the spots that bug me and consider proper polish later if it bothers me more.
