Sofia expressed her disappointment with Amazon’s solution, replying:
“I already did it and the only solution they gave me was a refund of the money and return of the air fryer, which I have to bear the cost of shipping because I am in Colombia, not the United States… so that solution does not work for me.”
Ya lo hice y la única solución que me dieron fue reembolso del dinero y devolución de la airfryer el cual el costo del envío me toca asumirlo a mí porque estoy en Colombia no en Estados Unidos … así que esa solución no me sirve
