Yes there is demand for the product, but that leads to the question whether or not that demand is to a very limited specific consumer or reaches beyond to the masses.
To me a couple of thousand units a year (1 to 3 million a year) does not a large company make.
I envisioned Brownie selling hundreds of thousand of these units to families with backyard pools, individuals with lake and river access, beach and lake resorts, and businesses that have to make repairs under water.
For that you need mass production and a reasonable every day consumer price.
It was disappointing to me to see that a kick starter purchaser putting off receiving their second unit because the company can not keep up with production.
Let's go back a minute, do we really know if there is DEMAND if a hundred people want a unit and they are only producing 5 a day. which would mean a 20 day delay for the last group of buyers to receive their Nemo, Is that demand?
There were only 300 kick start buyers, and how long did the last one have to wait before they got their Nemo after the initial production started?
It is a great product with the potential of a huge market, I just hope they don't remain a mom and pop operation.
