| Excellent lens that produces great quality images. It is a bit on the heavy side, but well worth the extra weight. I have used it for over a year and the improved quality of my images is really amazing. If you serious about producing excellent images this is the lens for you. |

| This knife was a Christmas gift that I used in preparing our Christmas dinner. I am the cook in my faimly and prepare dinner at least 5 nights a week, and feel that this knife will make dinner preparation much more quick and easy. I have always been impressed with products from OXO, and this knife seems to be another great product. The knife has an immensely comfortable handle. It is weighted nicely and seems to be a great knife for daily perperation. It 8" blade cuts well and seems to be durable. I am pleased with this knife and look forward to easier dinner preparation. |

| This is a 1000 watt generator, not a 1200 watt. It's maximum wattage is stated instead of the actual running wattage. No one else that I have seen advertises the maximum wattage. I would not have purchased if I had known. I contacted Amazon about this and never received an answer from them. Im disappointed in my purchase. |

| The can opener replaced a Swing Away Can Opener we had for many years. The design was improved over our last one, however; while it hadslot to install a magnet the new opener was delivered without a magnet. .The magnet is supposed to hold the can top after the can is opened.Jack Bleich |

| I searched the reviews and was glad to see someone put into words exactly what I was thinking the whole time I read this book. The whole story read like a Plum imitation from dinner at the parents house to the mysterious stranger/perfect man! I don't know how Ms. Avocato gets away with publishing a book that she hardly had to write! |

| This lantern is sturdy built. It a thicker plastic outside, than the one I had. I believe the battery is what gives it more weight. It is not real heavy and I can still lift it with no problem. It is just different than the one I had, and takes getting use to it. I have not had to actually use it for a power outage as of yet, but have turned it on to see how it does, and it works good. I like the looks of it, and am glad I chose this one. I believe it to be a good lantern and would recommend it.It qualified for the super saver shipping at Amazon, so shipping was free. I like those type of deals.I believe this lantern is going to last a long time. |

| Pictures are only fair, and too small. Cumbersome system for moving through the slides. I couldn't get the videos to work at all!!The book atlas from this company is actually a bit better amd more comprehensive.I would only get this for it's portability, but would recommend McNally (atlas in book form) as the best atlas out there at the moment.It is also much more useful as a reference to look at during procedures. Hopefully McNally will make a CD ROM, or the people from Jefferson University will produce something. |

| I had purchased two of these Smack and Yack cars for my grandson. While wrapping them the night before I planned to give the gift, I discovered that they did not make noise as advertised. If I had looked at them earlier, I would have returned them for a refund. It's no fun to have grandchildren that are disappointed! |

| When I started this book I thought it had great potential but not too far into it I just lost interest and did not care about the characters. The only reason I finished it was I kept hoping for some great 'thing' to happen to pick the story up but it just never came to light. Near the end an additional character comes into play but by then who cares? You can't develop a character in 25 pages and make us care about the person. Terrible book and terrible ending. |

| Disappointed. Cheated. Angry. Thats how I felt when I finally heard Jay-Z and R. Kelly's second "Best of Both Worlds" CD. Jay's rhymes was the worst I've heard him do in a LONG time, R. Kelly basically outsung the whole CD. It was sad, on top of that, it was just wayyy to commercial. It seemed like they put zero to little effort into it, and Jay even admitted that. I went to the Madison Square concert the night R. Kelly walked off stage, and it was one of the best concerts I've been to ever. I felt like I witnessed history, only because it showed how one performer (R. Kelly) really proved that he was at the bottom of his game, while the other (Jay-Z) pulled out his aces and performed a hit show, thanks to Mary J, Ja, and Busta! The CD is horrible though, get the Black Album instead, or wait and get Nas' "Streets Disciple". |

| Watch out for these third party G4/iBook power adapters. I don't know of anyway to tell how well the connector is made. The tip section of the two part inner plug of the adapter CAME OFF inside my iBook! My iBook will no longer charge. The power jack on my iBook is ruined. For most iBook users this would mean that their whole iBook is ruined, because you would not want to pay the labor to fix it. Fortunaly I am comfortable with tearing iBooks into a million pieces and repairing them. I'm now buying a used power plug receptical with board part off of ebay ($10), and I will tear the iBook into a million pieces and spend four or five hours of my time to repair this. |

| Hoped to dust off the college French with this audio set, but it's not very good. Exercises are brief and very fast-paced not to mention extremely boring. The audio quality is not so great either. The exercise booklet that accompanies the CD set is small and flimsy - it resembles a users guide for a low-end appliance! Stick with the book only version for grammar exercises and look elsewhere for audio review and practice. |

| This game rules. It's a lot of fun. I'm so bad at it I can't even beat the game on easy and i still love it. Skirmishs are awesome. There are so many different strategies to use, you'll probaly never figure out all of them. And the expansion packs make it even better(I suggest aftermath, which you can get with the regular game in the arsenal package, But I hear counterstrike is decent also.) I also haer that it is cool to play on the internet, but i've never got that mode to work. The only domnside is you can't play skirmishs. But at this point, I wouldent buy. You will probaly start to play, Love it, Play it alot, Get the new one in october, and throw out the old one. This is a great game, But i suggest you wait for the new one. |

| Beware! Once you've selected the "shade" of how you want the toast, and depress the lever, the only way you can get it to stop earlier is to unplug it!! I hate that aspect. I keep my bread in the freezer, so it takes longer to toast. The first time I used it, I set it for too dark. The toast started burning. I tried pushing up on the lever like you would to most toasters, but nada! I had to unplug it to make it stop. Very poor design. Other than that, I like it. It's not only wide enough for bagels, but long enough for Branola or Orowheat bread, which not alltoasters are. I plug this into a surge surpressor now, so if it needs to come out early, I trip the surpressor, and the toast pops up. |

| I got the Kazoo MP3 Player as a gift, and I have to say, this is one of the smallest and lightest MP3 Players you'll get youir hands on, as of now. The sound quality of this player is great, and you can adjust the sound to your preferences by using the graphic equaliser presets. The 32 MB version can store upto 8 songs at 128 kbps, which is a bit low, but it can be upgraded using a mmc card. The cons are that it finishes batteries rather quickly, and no ID3 tag support. But the advantages overweight the disadvantages, and overall, I would recommend this player for people who need a very compact, lightweight MP3 player which they can take along with them whereever they go! |

| I read Weiner's "In Her Shoes" several months ago and enjoyed the book so looked for "Good in Bed". I have to say that this book was wonderful. I laughed and cried; I was tied to the characters; I couldn't put it down. There wasn't anything that was to implausible to be real. This was a truly well written book - a must read! |

| Hamsun is a minor writer. His best work, HUNGER, is beholden completely to the Dostoevsky of CRIME AND PUNISHMENT. As disciple, Hamsun succeeded. And then PAN. PAN is perhaps the worst "serious" piece of literature I have ever read. It is without humor and almost without humanity--except there are humans among us who are as baldly emotive and badly pulled off as PAN. The plot is this: a thinly sketched Hero pines unsuccessfully for a thinly sketched but plainly unattractive woman. The tone is consistently over-wrought. Oh, the emotion!!! It sickens. If you loved this book and wear braces, I am not surprised. I would have looooooooved this book at age thirteen, when common sense was a foreign country and all I had was my ardor and my acne. I hate this book, and I will go to any lengths to destroy it. |

| This film portrays large scale drug dealers as guerilla marketing experts. It's long on make-up and period costume and short on cool dialogue or good acting. Hispanic actors portray Columbians using exaggerated accents and they appear more middle eastern than latin american. Good cameos by Ray Liotta and Pee-Wee Herman. The film is based on one convict's memoir, and it presents an interesting point or two, but everything in this film has been covered before, in better films. |

| I purchased this CD to add to my collection of atrocious performances. I first heard it on my car radio, without knowing who the performers were. My immediate reaction was that Correa was playing with borrowed hands. Since I never got past his playing, I never drew a conclusion about Bobby McFerrin's performance. |

| Compared to traditional toggle or Molly bolts, the Snaptoggle is a magnitude of improvement. It essentially puts a 1/4x20 threaded hole in the wall--as simple as that. Very nicely, the threaded hole is neat in appearance when you remove the shelf or other object, and unlike toggle bolts, the threaded hole stays there.The weightbearing capacity is dependent on the wall material--drywall will naturally have less weightbearing capacity than concrete block--but the design of the Snaptoggle will give you more weightbearing capacity than any other fastener.The speed and ease of inserting the Snaptoggle is miles ahead of toggle and Molly bolts. It's nearly error-free (about the only mistake you can make is to work too hard at it).It also integrates well with the use of screws when you'd ideally prefer to screw into studs but at some locations a stud isn't at the ideal point.Snaptoggles have a permanent place in my toolbox. |

| I was greatly disappointed with this product because what I read about it and what I saw were two different things. I didn't find the presentation amusing, insightful, informative or inspiring. I had to dig to find any thing remotely useful as the presentation had no clear organization. The presenter also frequently asks the audience questions like, "Is this true!" " or "Am I right!". Notice, they don't sound like questions, more like commands. I am sure there are much better products out there. I am grateful Amazon refunded my money because this video is not cheap: $90.00. |

It was so nice to see it all. I was so impressed with these movies that I bought books by Elizabeth Gaskell to read. She's now one of my favorite authors. |

| I doubt these guys are the saviors of rock and roll. However, the Strokes have been a breath of fresh air amid the TRL Britney/50 Cent/Justin music. Yes, it's all been done before...but if you are going to copy the style of a former band, why NOT sound like the Ramones, VU or the Clash? It's fun, it's energetic, and it beats the hell out of 98% of the crap you hear on the radio. So just enjoy it! It's a good CD. |

| New viewers during this season must be thinking "what's all the fuss"? Season 3 is definitely not as good as season 1 and 2 were. We saw some glimpses of melodrama toward the end of season 2 but season 3 gets worse. Lack of acting ability starts to appear especially on behalf of Izzy (while mourning Denny) and George (while mouring his loss). And if I see Meredith sigh and frown one more time I will scream! I'm sticking with it because I heard it gets better. Let's hope so. Meredith's 'drowning' is ridiculous. The kind of thing you'd see on All My Children NOT Grey's Anatomy. |

The cliff hanger left at the end of the last book is ended here in Violets are blue, but it contrived and very very disappointing. I feel cheated. It seems the book was pushed out to hit the Christmas book buying season. I'll be very leary about buying another James Patterson novel. |

| Bought this model when my older Emerson shaver (and an even older Wahl) were no longer "cutting it". Since I wear a close crop (high and tight - almost bald), I figured I would save some money and time cutting my hair doing it at home. I have done it on my own a few times but the wife does a better job using them on my head than I can.I use the lowest blade guide available (green 1/4") and it is perfect. Blades are sharp and accurate. Also plan on using it for my whole body for summer, I can definitely be mistaken for a gorilla at times. So far I have been satified with this shaver. It comes with other guides and a comb, but I use the lowest setting and will use no attachment for my body (cuts extremely close to skin).Overall a good value and saving time and money from visiting the barber is a side benefit too! |

| It's truly amazing to look at this "film" now and marvel that it's one of the top grossing motion pictures of all time. Basically, it's a marvel of marketing. Emmerich and Devlin have "borrowed" ideas from really great films and clumsily placed them in their movie. They even swipe the ending of their previous effort, STARGATE (which appeared prior to that in ALIENS and the obscure MOONTRAP). And when they're not lifting other filmmakers' ideas, they're putting in some of the most illogical concepts seen (ie, an alien computer can instantly download a program from an Apple). |

| I had heard mixed reviews on this & the video store girl didn't like it, but me (I'm 46), loved it! I agree: you should be mature enough to understand movies & life in general. One should realize the songs are not from 100 yrs ago, but from the 50s or later. So much energy! So much imagination! Almost too much energy in the beginning, but stay with it. It has 3 acts & the final one will blow your mind. Terrific, terrific cast with Nicole especially great. If she doesn't win the Academy award, I can't Imagine, who will! Stunning from beginning to end! Took two yrs to film! If there's a better movie from '01, I'd love to see it!! Run, don't walk, to rent or buy this masterpiece. |

| I have one of these. Have had it for about 2 years. Recently it has cracked in the center from top to bottom. I have contacted the company and they stated that since it is past the 18 month warranty period, they could not help, however did recommend I replace it and then mentioned of a sale on the item right now. I am going to contact the consumer reports group and email the photo so they may review this item.Overall it "was" alright. It takes the chill off of a room. It did not raise temperature significantly. I don't think in my case of 2 year life it was worth the money spent.Also it seemed to produce less heat as time went on. |

| This book really opened up the world of ADO programming for me. It was concise, but not simple. It really explained the benefits of using ADO. It was insightful, but not too complicated. Not for beginner programmers, though. The format took a little getting used to, but if you read it carefully, this won't be a problem. The CD has code samples, so that is a huge time saver - you wont have to copy the code by hand. |

| I ordered at the end of 2011 and it arrived with a bad connector. After cutting the shell apart and soldering in one wire in the pryed open terminal and insulating the wires with heat-shrink performance in the telephone was restored to new --- for about six months. After that the battery pack didn't last any longer than the other two phones which had their original batteries for several years and before I had it in there for a full year it died comletely.Internal construction (cut the plastic cover) is good, so all I can determine is the battery cells must be of poor quality. That and the effort necessary to "rework" the connector cost the review a star.There are lots of reviews better than mine, but I wonder how long they waited before evaluating the product and what the reviews would be a year after puchase(?). Just to compare though, I bought two cell phone batteries years ago from a different vendor and they are still going strong... . Your milage may vary. |

| I got interested in John Bellairs books after I read a reader review of a Harry Potter book which talked about these books as even better than HP -- and you know, he was right! These are really well-written books. I've read about 6 Bellairs books with my kids (ages 10 and 11) and this was by far the scariest. This one seemed to have more: more humor, more fright, more heart, as well as the usual excellent character development. (oh yeah, my kids really enjoyed the book too.) The scary scenes are really vivid, but ideal for my boys' age group. They just love this stuff. |

| Kathi Kemper, MD, does a poor job of presenting holistic therapies for childhood ailments.There is too much emphasis on conventional care and much of the holistic therapies are discouraged or not even mentioned.For example, in the chapter on ear infections she devotes nearly 3 full pages to medications and even recommends prophylactic antibiotics. In contrast food allergies, which are one of the most common causes of ear infections, are addressed in only 2 1/2 paragraphs...most of which discourages altering a child's diet.It would be more wise to choose a book on this subject whose author's practice is based on complimentary and alternative medicines, such as a chiropractor or naturopath, rather than a medical doctor whose practice is based on drugs and surgery.Marc Tinsley, DC, Chiropractic Physician |

| This is not a machine to buy if you're trying to outfit a muffler shop. Obviously.If you're looking for a welder to be able to MIG weld damn near anything *on occasion*, it's perfect. It runs on household current, so there's no special 220V or three-phase electrical runs to bother with. If you don't mind the mess, you can just use it as-is with the flux-core wire. If you care about your weld quality (and aren't working outside) hooking up a bottle of shielding gas will take care of that. Of course, you have to deal with that locally - you can't ship bottled gas. |

| Theres little need to give a synopsis of the story, as that has already been done in almost every other review shown here. I don't know why the director chose to use painted cityscapes, rather than actually make the movie on location. The artificial backdrop in front of which the characters parade make the movie seem dull and lifeless and I found myself watching the film with a certain amount of detachment, not really feeling involved wih the people or their lives. If you want to watch an exciting film about the French Revolution, buy A Tale of Two Cities instead. |

| There are many fine novels; this isn't. It's a true story of an amazing fighter who overcomes adversity more than any human can imagine. The protaganist proves the 'American Dream' as he morphs from a war-torn displaced person into a business magnate, while retaining the charm and charisma of a righteous, gregarious friend we'd all be honored to know and cherish. We grow with him from childhood, through the war years and into establishing himself in the new world with all the humor and tears he shares.I looked forward to reading each chapter as much as one might follow a soap opera or great television series.

| If you or someone you know is dealing with Aspergers or just autism - understanding, bullying, suicide - this should be required viewing! A fairly edgy and dark movie, it shows just what we autistics must endure from people - the stress, failure in communication - and where it can push us. It also shows how you can be creative in finding the way out. This movie brings me to deep tears recalling many of my horrible past experiences but lights a fire under me that forces me to go on and win in the end. I can't say enough! Buy it! Watch it!

| Originally banned by the Iranian government for its potentially explosive material, Letters in the Wind is a stirring depiction of life in the belly of the Iranian Army for two young grunt recruits. The friendship between the two soldiers Taghi and Faramarz paces the film with sharp humor and insight. Shot almost like a documentary with very little added effects,this is a sparse and searing portrayal of the Islamic Republic. |

| It does not have a single word related to the steel industry, like pre-engineered steel buildings, and words we use every day, like solid I-Beam construction, PBR panels, purlins, Z-girts, purlins, and many others translate into Spanish,so it was o no use to me. |

| If you're ever feeling for an easy, light read that is filled with action and suspense, this is the one. This book shows us that today, in a world ruled by corruption and hate, there still is someone great to look up to, Captain America. The way he is presented in the novel makes him look like a God. I would definaltely recommend this book to anyone looking for a fast-paced, new-aged fairytale. |

| I thought this was a good book with a many plot changes and many twists. The end surprised me, which does not happen often. While this was a sequel to an earlier James Grippando book, I barely remember the first one, which I'm sure put me at a slight disadvantage in terms of personality traits of the characters. I read the Pardon, and remember Theo and others, but that story was not fresh in my memory and therefore the details were not coming back to me as quickly as they should have when I read this one.So, with that in mind, read the Pardon first, (or read it again) and then read this - I wish I had. |

| We wanted this switch so we could alternate between PS3 optical and HD box optical depending on what we were watching. We were excited to get the product until we realized that...it...doesn't....work. It is very faulty and we have to have our optical cables at a certain angle and not completely plugged in to get even a 'wee bit' of sound. We know it is not the cable because we tested it with other devices. It is definitely this guy unfortunately.I would suggest researching another option. I will be looking to return this guy. |

| This dated paperback is one of the finest texts on cryptozoology I've ever had the pleasure to read -- sadly, most of the dozen or so books on the subject are drivel that may as well have been regurgitated from the tabloids. Not so with this one. A number of "mystery creatures" are discussed at length and in detail. Sasquatch-type creatures make up about a third of the content, and the remainder covers such difficult to classify oddities as "Mothman" (and similar winged entities), the "Jersey Devil", and "Phantom Cats & Dogs" (which includes seance manifestations as well as the myriad types of black panther-type entities encountered throughout North America. Loren Coleman co-wrote this gem with Jerome Clark -- I've read several books by both individual authors, and this is probably the best of them all. There is an abundance of useful information to be found "between the lines" -- make the connections yourself. Check this one out! |

| I ordered with Expedited shipping and received product in 3 days. It does not state that in the product description that product comes with both car adaptor and wall charger, but it does, so need to buy a separate car charger unless you want two of them.It has excellent battery life. It will hold charge 8 to 9 hours with no problems during continuous use. I have used it extensively for driving, snowboard backcountry, and hiking backcountry with met expectations every time. I have yet to use the Marine GPS functions.I am sure a person could find short comings with each of the individual GPS functions (driving, hiking, and marine) when compared to single purpose GPS device; but for someone looking for a shotgun approach to their GPS needs, this unit did it for me. |

| What a mind-bending piece of eye candy! Aside from the fact that our heroine dies very gracefully, despite the fact she has tuberculosis- a particularly nasty disease indeed, the modern soundtrack had the annoying habit of yanking the audience out of the story back into the present. With that in mind, it was extremely difficult to "suspend disbelief." I wanted to like it, but it was just a garbage movie. |

| This album is a perfect example of all that is wrong with the music world. Simpson oversings horribly and eliminates any doubts regarding her lack of musical skill. No subtlety whatsoever. But it doesn't matter because the record company is selling an artist rather than art. If this disaster was not sung by a person who represents a classic sex object it would never be marketed because it wouldn't sell. For proof just look at the album cover. A come hither look for a Christmas album? What a joke. |

| These dolls are great overall...I bought them for the Loving Family Townhouse that I bought used for my daughter, and they go very nicely with it. However, they are extremely over-priced! You can buy them for $5-$6 per 2-pack of the figures (mom and toddler; grandma and brother; dad and sister) at any national toy retailer/discount store. At most, they should cost $20, not $50, especially since they're still widely available (the shelves were full when I bought all three 2-packs this week!). |

| I had ordered 2 of these to add to a DJ setup and I do realize that they are cheap and all, but when I went to test them, one sounds great and the second one sounds like trash! It sounds like the woofer has "popped" and will need replaced. |

| Just take a look at the cover. The book is full of photos like that one. Photos that I look at and think "wow". The author explains how he took the photos, concentrating on where he measured the light.For my taste he concentrates too much on external meters, though. Personally I do not have one and do not intend to carry even more equipment around with me... |
