I have backed about 10 projects on KS which all held their promises except for one. The first 10 projects or so were all great, and can't complain about anything. But the last project I backed were "self heating gloves from Zondo/Astec and a creator named Rick Beardsell, and me and around 2000 other backers funded this guys project. When i got my gloves I tried them in the cold weather and they didn't work at all, in fact my hands were colder than with regular gloves. I commented on the project with my complain with A LOT of other backers, but Rick didn't answer appropriately, he sort of just avoiding to answer the specific problem. So I wrote to KS to complain and see if they could do anything. There was nothing they could/would do, so now I just sit back with many other backers with a pair of very expensive gloves that doesn't work at all. KS can be great and you can buy a lot a neat gadgets/things before they come in store, but be careful. Don't think that KS will do anything if you back a fraud :(
