Mine called to be soaked in water for 5 minutes before use. As a reference you can mostly use oil on a stone at any time, but once you use oil on a stone you cant go back to just using water.
I have some good knives, some good stones and a couple of Lasky systems (controlled angle). I've tested this kit on both fancy steel German and Japanese knives and on a $5 stainless kitchen aid and I was able to slice paper afterwards with all of them.
Stones are like running shoes. You can get pretty fit and fast on $10 shoes if you have good technique and practice. You will not win races by buying $200 shoes and being a couch potato.
These cheap stones do work, if you have good technique and practice. Expensive stones won't make you a good sharpener if you don't put the effort to learn how to use them. If you want fool-proof results, I would suggest a controlled-angle system ($50-500) but for me, stones are way more fun!
