Black Dress Suit
I ordered this one size up because it is sized in juniors. I was very skeptical because of the price tag and ordering a brand I've never heard of. This dress is PERFECT. I'm 5'3 and it hits just below my knees. Perfect for a job interview I'm going to. The material is great and doesn't smother you, but it does show off your figure, in a good way. The neckline in the back is just as high as the front. Zippers down to the butt, so you can step into it. Very highly recommended! XOXO Juniors Solid Belted Peplum Dress, Black, 5/6
I was nervous about this dress, too -- polyster, and a juniors dress? But most dresses with a style this classy run about $80-100, so I had to try.
I'm 5'5" and a trim 120 lb, and wear a 0 in most clothing stores (Banana Republic, Express, etc.), but I was wise and ordered a 5/6 in this dress. It's perfect for a summer work dress -- cap sleeves, hits right above/at my knee, and I love the peplum detail.
I was right about the fabric -- it's pretty cheap and you have to be careful not to set the iron too hot. But it's black, and I don't think anyone will really notice unless they are touchy-feely.
I've been wearing it for 2 hours and have already gotten several compliments! Go for it and pair it with your favorite colored pumps.
Update later in day: the belt broke by 10 pm! I didn't do anything strenuous, it wasn't buckled tight..just...fell off, broken! Be prepared to provide your own belt.
This is a very cute dress. You would pay much more to find this style at a department store. I am 5'5" 130 lbs and typically wear a size 6. I bought a size 7/8 and it fits nicely. Very happy with this purchase!
This dress comes with a belt. When I ordered mine, it came with a broken belt. I reported this, but no action was taken. I did not even get a response. The dress is useless without the belt. I tried to fix the belt on my mine, but it is so flimsy, am still looking for one which looks the same and can go with this dress. Not worth the buy.
I was very concerned about this dress as someone has previously stated as well, considering it says Juniors in the name. I have a VERY curvy shape and wear a 14 in regular women's sizes. The dress is perfect and definitely suit's the body of a fuller figured woman. I thought the dress would be made out of a stiff material but it's just enough spandex in it to where it hugs my curves comfortably and is very flattering. I love this dress! My only concern now is the warehouse smell it has. Ugh! But that's a minor issue compared to the money, time, and effort I saved by buying this dress online from Amazon.
This dress fit me like it was made for me. I waited til the last minute to see about getting myself a dress for my daughter's wedding. The dress arrived 2 days before the wedding and if it didn't fit there was no recovery. IT FIT PERFECTLY! Thank You!!!'

This ring looks great at the picture, but unfortunately in real life it's a little different. At the picture it looks like there's more yellow gold and just a quarter or third of ring is white gold. The ring I've got has quarter of yellow gold and the rest is white gold. Other than that it is excellent ring for such price and it still looks great. Quite fast shipping and good packaging. 14k Two-Tone Diamond Heart Ring (1/10 cttw, H-I Color, I2 Clarity), Size 7
I bought this ring for my girlfriend on our 3 year anniversary and it was a hit! She loves it and hasn't taken it off. The two-tone is beautiful and symbolic. I noticed a few reviews mentioned that the ring was small, but it really isn't too bad at all. It's perfect (size & all) for the occasion (anniversary/promise ring)! All together, this was a Good buy... I recommend it.
The ring came in as pictured, lovely quality. I am completely satisfied with this ring, and I have had no problems. Even shipping happened faster than I expected. Overall this has been the one of the best buys I've made, an excellent deal on such a lovely piece of jewelry.
This ring is perfect! I bought it for my girlfriend as a promise ring for our anniversary and eversince then, she hasn't mistreated it. She loves it and always wears it. All I got to say is that this ring will make your lover very happy!
I asked my boyfriend to purchase this item for me last Christmas. He did, and I still never ever take it off. It is beautiful and I love it. Mine is exactly like the picture, was exactly what I wanted, and I have zero complaints. Love it.
This ring is awesome! It is a little small, but it doesn't need to be big
(especially for this price) and it is beautiful nonetheless. I bought it for my girlfriend and gave it to her as a promise ring on Valentine's Day, and she loves it and never takes it off!
The recipient of this ring has had this for over a year now and it is still in great condition. It is a beautiful ring, however, be aware that it may be a little smaller in person that it appears online. The diamonds are pretty small. But it was just right for our occasion. She wears it on her middle finger because I must have ordered a size too large to fit the ring finger it was intended for. Read a lot of reviews to decide on this one and glad I did.
My girlfriend loved it, however the picture that is given makes the ring seem way larger. In reality it is a very slim and skinny ring as in the width of the band. Love how the color just merges into each other though. Very smooth, shiny, etc. Its cheap compared to its quality and looks.'

This is a beautifully constructed wallet, seams are great, easy to put in the purse, attaches easily to cart handle and has plenty of room for coupons. I'm only disappointed in the dividers, which, though they are as described of high quality and nicely cut, are the wrong size for this organizer. Pretty much 1" too short in height and 1/2" too short in width so the labels are hard to read once the coupons are in there and the ends of the coupons wind up slipping around the sides of the cards. The picture shows the dividers up at the level of the top of the wallet, but they actually sit 1 full inch below. Double Deluxe Purse Size Coupon Organizer Wallet #59
This is the 3rd item I've purchased from this seller- all the items are great, but I think I finally found the right size for me! I do get multiples, so the regular purse size got too small quickly. And I don't like the bulkiness of the box (and the attention it brings cause I like to have them in the stores with me)- so this is just right! I use the front pocket area for FOOD, the middle smaller pocket for restaurants and back pocket for NON-FOOD
This is the first coupon organizer that I have really liked. It is double the size of the others, which I need, and better made too. There wasn't enough dividers for me, so I used four small envelopes that fit perfectly in the back of the organizer for store coupons, reward dollars, rain checks and the like. There is a divider in the middle of the organizer that you can put your store cards, or special coupons that you want to use soon. I highly recommend this coupon organizer.
I love this coupon organizer. It works great for all my coupons. I dont really like how it straps to the shopping carts. I keep it in my purse all the time and pull it out when i need it. I had to order another package of dividers and i also put my own labels on them.
I bought three of these double deluxe purse size coupon organizer wallets. One for my mother, one for me, and one for a co-worker of mine. My co-worker attended a guest speaker lecture from a woman who was featured on TLC's "Extreme Couponing". After my co-worker told me this story, I ordered this from Amazon, and thought it would make part of a nice birthday present for her. I printed coupons from the Internet, clipped coupons from the Sunday circulars from brands that I know she likes, and put the 60 plus coupons in the wallet I bought her. She absolutely loved that I took the time to do that for and she loved the wallet. The following are this wallet's best features: 1.) the design - 4bestbargains offer these coupon wallets in various designs - some feminine and some unisex so that men as well could use 2.) the velcro strap - you can put this securely on the grocery cart handle as pictured on this page 3.) the file dividers - there are 24 of them 4.) the sticker labels - there are 24 printed shopping category labels, with eight additional blank sticker labels if you don't like or use some of the categories already printed 5.) the inside pouch - you can put your I.D., credit, debit cards, and cash in this pouch 6.) the front compartment - you can put more items here such as your checkbook or grocery list. In the end, my mother, co-worker, and I are very pleased with these double deluxe purse size coupon organizer wallets from 4bestbargains. We are not extreme couponers, but it's nice to use some coupons to save money, and this is a nice and classy way of organizing your coupons. The size of this wallet is perfect, and is light to carry when you go shopping. Overall, I think this is a great product, and would make a useful gift for a lot of people!
For the cost the organizers were poor quality. the patterns did not line up. the center strap was not in the center. and one already began to fall apart. Contacted the company 2+ weeks ago regarding. THey said they'd send new ones out. Yet have not received them. Very unsatisfied with the quality and the service.
I am disappointed with this product for the cost. I purchased two holders for 4.99 at Bed, Bath and Body that were the same size. I thought this was larger , but it really isn't . I am going to see if I can return the product. I also found a makeup case at Drug Mart that will hold tons of coupons in fashion - for 5.99
This was actually a very nice coupon holder and i was very excited to get it...I am returning it because I need one that is longer so the reason is not due to quality of the item.....Unfortunatley I'm giving it a bad review because I've emailed the seller 3 times to get return/refund instructions but they have not responded...I understand that things come up and people are busy but it has been OVER A MONTH!! - Organization Accessories'

RAM Mounting Systems RAP-299-2-AP8U Flexible Arm Mount for the Apple iPad (Black)
This us a great product! It won't fall off the glass or break your vent when you hit a bump since it mounts in a sturdy cup holder at the most stable point in a car.
This product exceeds my expectations in adjustability of the gooseneck and overall quality. This is a very sturdy product that should last for years. It wasn't obvious before I received the product but there are two points to attach the gooseneck to the iPad holder which is a great idea because it allows for some more adjustment in relation to the gear shift and my other cup holder. Given the location of my cup holders, a standard shift would be a little inconvenient but since my car is an automatic so there is no problem.
It will work with an iPad 1 or an iPad 2 after the attachment of two small bumpers that compensates for the thinner iPad 2. You can't go back to the thicker iPad 1 after you install the bumpers. RAM Mounting Systems RAP-299-2-AP8U Flexible Arm Mount for the Apple iPad (Black)
I have been searching for a good cup-holder based iPad mount for over six months, and I stumbled across this one last week. I have Amazon Prime and got it overnighted for$4 bucks. I installed this in my Mini Cooper, which if you have been in one, you know that the cupholders are poorly placed, as well as being small. This mount worked even in the cupholders in the Mini, and so I tried it in a few others cars. It works perfectly. It holds the iPad very securely, and does not take up a bunch of space that you need to see (i.e. - windshield space).
Great purchase
I use this iPad mount in my truck. It fits perfectly in my cup holder. The wire stem is stiff but adjustable. There is a little vibration while driving, but it is completely within tolerable limits. I can now use my Navigation app or Google Maps while on the road. I also stream music to my truck radio and can check emails when at stoplights. Very nice product.
I've only had this iPad car cup holder stand for a couple of days, but I'm already in love with it. I'm in the car a lot for work and fun. My iPad goes with me everywhere and I use it daily for business and personal tasks. This holder solves a big problem I had. I hated just sitting the iPad in the car because it would often slide off the seat or someone had to hold it. With this cup holder stand the iPad is safe and secure and USEABLE! Its great when you want to use your iPad as a GPS (better than a TomTom), easily control the music you're listening to, check emails WHILE PARKED or letting your passenger(s) watch a movie while on the road.
The construction is very nice and appears it should last a long time. It seems to fit well in many different cup holder sizes.
I have mine in my 2007 Ford Edge SEL+ and it has a large and a small cup holder and works in either one (see photo above).
Pros:
1.) Much needed accessory for any one who uses their iPad in the car.
2.) Works with iPad1 and iPad2 (I have an iPad2 and didn't even need to use the bumpers provided for converting it for iPad2 usage).
3.) Has 2 different places you can attached the adjustable stand (center or left side). I used the left side to help keep it from obstructing my A/C and radio controls.
4.) Very sturdy build that should last long time.
5.) Bottom is open so you can still use the charing port while mounted.
6.) Has a flexible arm so you can position the mount at an angle you want.
7.) Unlike bolt mounted stands, this stand is highly portable and can be removed or moved to another car in seconds.
Cons:
1.) May promote using the iPad while driving (not a good thing - I would not buy this for teens or careless drivers).
2.) The iPad cannot be in a case or even a slim cover. I have to take my back cover and smart cover off whenever I put this in the holder. Not a big deal.
3.) The arm does wiggle some with road conditions. This is unavoidable and I have not found it to be a big deal
4.) How well this works will also highly depend on where your cup holders are located. While they are perfect in my Ford Edge, it does not work well in my Infinity FX35 - due to poor cup holder design.
5.) May promote your iPad getting stolen if you get lazy and leave it in the holder when you get out of your car - makes your iPad highly visible to potential thieves.
So far this is my favorite iPad accessory. I highly recommend it for yourself or as a GREAT gift for an iPad owner in your life.
They need a list of popular auto model where mount would not fit. The bottom of my Odyssey cupholder is narrower than the top which make mount a bit wobbly. Fits well in 4Runner though. They should also include assembly manual, although it is easy enough to figure out.
The mount seems well made and I don't have any doubt regarding the quality of the product. It seems solid and the part that clips the iPad in place holds it very securely. The issue are the fit of the portion that goes in the cup holder and the length of the arm. I have an Audi TT and it doesn't fit in the cup holders at all. I will probably attempt to cut the fins on the side and see if I can get it in there. However, the other obstacle is the length of the arm that the iPad mounts to. It just doesn't seem like it would allow enough space between the driver and the iPad.
I carry my iPad with me in my personal vehicle as well is my work vehicle. The reason I chose this holder was that it seemed simple to mount and would work in both of these vehicles. I was concerned about sturdiness but decided to give it a try. Turned out to be very sturdy. There is some vibration while moving but very little and certainly does not affect the performance of the iPad. If I travel with my iPad I can now bring this holder and use it in a rental car. - Gps - Ipod Touch - Bad-elf - Ipad Mount'

Kitchen - kitchen, egg cooker
I confess I am an egg poaching addict. Among the egg poachers I have tried and experimented with are the pan, cups and lid style, microwaveable units, and those products that utilize the use of 10-inch and 12-inch frying pans. I even tried a funky style where one had to use a knife blade or spoon handle to lift the egg tray to and from the pan; it worked though. Each of these products gave me good poached eggs - to a point. All were lacking in finished product desirability or method of operation. Some gave eggs that were on the thin side. Others popped out eggs a bit uncooked or overcooked or one of each, especially the microwaveable units. The best styles I used were the pan, cups and lid combos. And the best of these styles for the price, in my opinion, is this Prime Pacific 4 cup Egg Poacher. Following the instructions, with some heat and time adjustments, will get you nice looking, delicious poached eggs almost every every. (After all, sometimes chefs make errors you know.) The amount of water called for in the instructions is a bit much in my opinion; I reduce it to half and get the same results. I must confess I only make two eggs at a time, so the amount of water called for could take into consideration that four eggs are being made.
Stoves vary in performance, considering heat sources and settings. I use a gas stove, and I bring the water to a boil in the pan using the highest setting. Then I turn the heat to medium high and place the egg tray with its egg filled cups in the pan using the convenient center knob holder on the tray. Over the tray I place the see-through lid. From this point I time 5-6 minutes, after which the eggs are done on the soft side; a longer time will make them hard boiled and good for salads. (Yes! No more shelling eggs for salads - poach them instead.) You don't need to use butter or cooking spray in the cups for the eggs to drop out nicely with a nudge of a small rubber spatula, because the cups have a non-stick coating. But I put a dab of butter in the cups anyway. (Old habits are hard to break.) Your timing might be different from mine, taking your stove's performance into consideration.
The Prime Pacific 4 Cup Egg Poacher pan is deep, and this is a plus when your need a small pan for making gravies or sauteing. The product is well constructed ready to give years of good service. I spent a lot of money on egg poachers, and this one is the best of the bunch that came into my kitchen. The other egg poachers I had are now gone to friends and relatives. I am keeping this one for good. I am addicted to it. Prime Pacific 4 Cup Egg Poacher
This was a great buy for the price and works wonderful. My husband had been wanting me to make him poached eggs and so I decided to buy and egg poacher but did not want to spend alot of money. This one works liked I spent alot of money on it. Everyone should try it.
This egg poacher works very well. I'm suprised by how fast it poaches eggs. I wish the egg cups weren't as deep as they are but that is a small issue. Some of the non-stick coating was scratched in the lower pot section and underneath the cup insert but the coating was not scratched in the cups themselves where it would have been an issue. When using, all of the little picking handles on each cup must be as close to or touching the tray insert handle or the clear cover will not fit properly. Aside from those little issues, it does its job and does it well.
We really like this poacher. After having tried several in the past few years we finally found one which exceeded our expectations. The poaching cups are deep and that is one feature we really like plus getting the eggs out is a cinch. All in all a very good buy and a very good cost.
I love poached eggs and always had one of those aluminum ones no matter what eggs would stick a little but this one is the greatest it cooks perfect eggs don't sick and easy to clean so if you like poached eggs like i do then you need this
We have used this poacher several times now. It is excellent. It is made of heavier and sturdier metal and glass than I expected for the price. Two small issues. First, while each of the four egg cups has a little handle on it they are very hot to touch and it is hard to get the egg out with the sunny side up. Second, even with the no stick surface and spraying the cup with vegetable oil in advance you still have to run a thin PLASTIC blade carefully around the edge to get the egg to release. Use a plastic "knife" like they give away at fast food places. But all in all it is the best poacher we have found. Four out of five stars.
I bought this poacher for a gift for a dear friend of mine and she absolutely loves it! She told me she uses it all the time and her grandkids visit and always ask for poached eggs. The poacher washes up so fast and it works just great!
Have used this only 4 times (in 2 weeks) but love it. I use a little non-stick spray in the egg cup and the eggs come out very nicely. Do have to reduce heat or water does splash out around the edges of the lid at full boil. - Egg Poachers - Egg Cookers - Kitchen - Egg Cooker'

Zac Brown Band - rock, mp3
This song has a wonderful sound quality. I love listening to this song. It is just some good southern music. It always puts me in a good mood when I am down and I love to listen to the patriotic part. It makes me proud to serve and it always gives me a reminder of all the good things we have, "like a little bit of chicken fried"...
This is a song that all country fans must have. Chicken Fried
If your looking for a song to play at a family barbeque or just something to play hanging out around a campfire in the middle of the woods, this song's for you. It's certain this song is going to be a classic years down the road.
Take for example the following lines from the song-
"And its funny how it`s the simple things in life that mean the most
Not where you live or what you drive or the price tag on your clothes
There`s no dollar sign on a piece of mind this I`ve come to know"
i bought this song and the other one and i dont know where it is in my computer so i bought it again on zune i would buy other things from y like videos but i lost those songs . so please contact me on this mater thank u dave - Mp3 - Mp3 Download - Zac Brown Band - Rock'

Corded Rotary Tools - rotary tool, hobby tool
I bought this Dremel. I used it. Then, I promptly returned it. I instead went with Proxxon 38481 IB/E Professional Rotary Tool.
The Proxxon is far superior in almost every way. If you look at the spec sheets, you might think the Dremel would have the advantage. After all, the Dremel boasts a 175 watt motor and continuous variable speeds from 5,000-35,000 RPM whereas the Proxxon only has a 100 Watt motor and continuous variable speeds from 5,000-20,000 RPM.
However, the Dremel is loud and whiny. [Noise is the manifestation of vibration.] The Proxxon is quiet and smooth, with virtually no vibration. Further, the Proxxon delivers consistent torque. The Dremel buckles a bit under heavy loads. It isn't consistent.
The Proxxon uses triple reinforced steel collets to minimize play. The Dremel uses a keyless chuck. [If you prefer a keyless chuck, Proxxon offers an attachment for roughly $10.]
The Proxxon is ergonomically designed and there is no question how you are supposed to hold it. Further, the instruction manual shows the correct position. The Dremel is awkward and hard to hold.
The Proxxon is made of diecast alumnium, fiberglass and rubber and is manufactured in Germany. It weighs over a pound. I don't know where Dremel is made, but it feels cheap.
As for accessories... Dremel comes with far more accessories, but Dremel accessories are not overly expensive. Further, the majority of accessories are cheap and unnecessary. Buy the right accessory for the right job and you'll be fine. No real need for 85 different kinds of sanding wheels [just my opinion]
I couldn't imagine anyone trying both and actually preferring Dremel. I don't see how that is possible. Dremel 4000-2/30 120-Volt Variable Speed Rotary Tool Kit
I was very excited for the release of this product and bought it the day it hit the shelf. If you worked with the 400xp like I did, this is definitely a power surge machine, like going from a ford taurus to a ford mustang. After about a week of using it though, the machine was already not operating as new. The on and off switch was not clicking the same, and the machine "extremely" overheated when challenged with a difficult task. I had to put it down for about 20 mins it was so hot.
IN CONCLUSION: Too powerful for light use and day to day jobs. Flimsy parts (switch, and screw), and a very awkward holding position. When you pick up the machine you almost have to try to figure out what;s the right way to hold it.
I purchased this Dremel for a small project and as an "upgrade" from my previous Dremel which is out on loan and still working just fine after 8-9 years. I was using this new unit for at most one minute and the motor completely died. At first I figured the circuit blew, but was surprised to realize that the tool itself quit after how reliable my older model has been. I'm returning this tool to the store and will just wait to get my old one back.
My knock-off rotary tool died, so I decided to get a real Dremel. After a couple of light-use projects, the 4000 just stopped. Since I purchased it from a big-box store and lost the receipt, I lost the will to even mess with a getting it repaired. The brushes were clean and no burning motor smell was detected, so I'm guessing the fancy rpm dial pooped out. The good news is that the no-frills Dremel 300 my good wife just bought me fits in the 4000's case.
I"ve been using dremel tools for years and love them. The 4000 is light weight comfortable and easy to use. On off switch and speed controles are in great locations. With the choice of attachments drilling, sanding, cutting and so many more! The uses for this cool tool are endless. The dremel 4000 makes my projects fun and easy. The 4000 maked all the repairs I've put off so easy to complete. I've been looking for more things to fix.
This unit is really great, just like my friend told me. This unit will improve
my electric guitar building business for some fine detailed work that I have not been able to do till now. Thanks to the Dremel 4000,Flex-Shaft,Work Station
and the attachments !!!
I've been using Dremel tools for years and love them. I got a 2nd drill just to have one set up and ready to go with the flexshaft extension on it. I recently got the router type TRIO. Haven't used it much yet... it looks sturdy. I suspect I will get something reciprocal in the near future. I always loved to do everything by hand, but I'm getting older now and like saving the time & energy.
Outstanding! I use at least one Dremel tool in my shop each day. Each new attachment and new tool are an upgrade to old reliables with the Dremel name, I hope to try out the new Multi-Max cordless soon. - Corded Rotary Tools - Hobby Tool - Rotary Tool - Crafting'

Outdoor Speakers - awesome speakers, speakers
These are great speakers. My husband put them up over the weekend and wow what spectacular sound. It was packaged well and came with all the mounting necessities. We love listening to 50's jazz and the crispness of the cymbals and the brushes on the snare give you chills. Never again will we go back to large bulky speakers. These are on the wall and out of the way. The seller got them to us quickly and we want to thank you Amazon for being there yet again. Sincerely, The Escondio Macs Yamaha NS-AW150W 2-Way Outdoor Speakers (Pair, White)
After doing a ton of research on outdoor speakers, I finally settled on these Yamahas, mainly because the price was so ridiculously low ($59.95 for the pair, including mounting hardware) that I felt I couldn't go wrong, especially since my next choice (Polk) would have cost me nearly twice as much.
I mounted these babies on the back wall of my house, about four feet apart, just under the eave, so that they pointed out at the deck. Although the mounting brackets are included, Yamaha does NOT include any screws to secure these brackets to the wall. I ended up using some 2-1/2 inch long wood screws...but your application may differ depending on how or with what your house is sided.
Yamaha also does NOT include speaker cable. I used some cheap 12-gauge stuff from Best Buy but 14 or 16-gauge lamp cord (also known as zip cord) from any hardware store will work just as well. Seeing as the speakers will be outside, I don't recommend the usual cheap, thin speaker cable that you normally see. Use the heavy stuff.
I hooked the Yamahas up to a Marantz 2240B receiver from the '70s and good God almighty, the sound is absolutely fantastic! Bass, you ask? The bass was so powerful, I had to turn the loudness control OFF! It seems that the location of the speakers up by the eave serves to reinforce the bass quite well, thank you.
Midrange comes through great. Both male and female vocals, as well as rock band stuff, is crystal clear. Nice highs as well. This system sounded so good that we ended up sitting outside until well after dark.
For something to sound as good as these speakers do, for as little money as I had to shell out, is absolutely fantastic. Highly recommended.
I read the excellent reviews for these speakers and was skeptical. However, the price was right so there wasn't much risk. So . . . I bought a pair. The reviews were spot on. They sound is terrific, the price was unbeatable, and look is very acceptable (even to my Interior Designer wife). Unless you are an audio perfectionist, you'll never get a better price/performance value.
When I first pulled these out of the box, I was disapointed at how light in weight the speakers were. Lets face it, small magnets, small sound. Instead of drilling holes in the wall I bought wall tracking at Home Depot that allows you to run wire thru it, concealing the wire & sticks to the wall. Drilled a small hole in the corner of the window and ran the wires outside(16 gauge speaker wire). Hung them at 10ft, spread about 15ft apart. The receiver in the house had to be placed on the "2 Channel" setting (stereo only) for them to work (did not work on Multiple Channel Setting). When I fired them up I WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE SOUND. Excellent quality for the price. Tweeters are crisp, bass is just strong enough. The tracking from home Depot was just barely good enough to keep the wife from barking. You will be very pleased with these speakers.
these speakers look exactly as they appear in the photos. They have a clean, simple stylish design. They sound as good as we can expect for a speaker of the size enclosure. Maybe they sound even better than average. Mounting was as easy as 2 screws (not supplied) in the supplied brackets. There are several mounting options. The only negative is that the mounting brackets are 2 direction hinges and not swivel. No big deal, I knew that when I purchased.
I purchased this item several weeks ago for my deck. Easy to mount and sounds clear. Since then there has been heavy rain storms. Even after the speakers were soaked from all the rain, I pumped the music to them expecting them to sizzle and WOW! I heard music! The music that came out sounded great! Just like new. Great Speakers and can withstand the test of my loud outdoor parties.
i purchased this item over 1 yr ago and now i can review them correctly i set them up on our porch up under the eves i wired them with "monster wire" less distortion than other wires based on past exp.
they produce a great sound throught the whole front yard when i am out there its clean crisp and very clear they have held up very well look and act as new i would highly reccomend thease to anyone
and also the system i have them on is a high powered yamaha component system with amplifier and lots of extras i only mention this to say they work very well even in a "high powered" system unlike many others that can not take the watts from the amp..
These are excellent speakers for the price. I have purchased Niles Audio & Boston Acoustics for considerably more and these have a similar build quality with good sound. Yamaha includes plenty of extras in the box for horizontal, vertical or tabletop mounting. Great speakers - highly recommend and will purchase again.
Most of the reviews say the same thing, but I figured I'd say it again. Speakers sound great for the price, right out of the box and I'm going directly from my receiver with 50 feet of outdoor speaker wire from Radio Shack to the speakers out on my deck...the only thing missing is a little more bass...but overall, you can't beat 'em. - Awesome Speakers - Speakers - Yamaha - White'

This is such an adorable necklace! My husband bought this for one of my anniversary gifts and I'm so happy with it! It's super sparkly and the perfect size. It's very dainty, but large enough to see the shape from a distance. Very pleased! Sterling Silver White and Treated Black Diamond Cat Pendant with 18" Chain
This is a very cute pendant...especially for Halloween....but the pendant looks a bit different in the picture...in the picture it looks like there are many more black diamonds than what there are...and the chain looks alot sturdier than what it is....but nice for the price....
When I opened the package I was so pleased with the black cat pendant. It is of good quality and has some weight
to it. It looks very nice when worn and I enjoy having people notice my new kitty addition. If you collect cat jewelry
you will not be disappointed, it is a keeper.
I love the cat pendant, and I've gotten quite a few comments on it. However, the chain was not so great. I really liked the look of it, but it broke after just a few wearings, and I had to put the pendant on another chain I had. I did contact the seller about the problem with the chain, but I never received a response.
I just adopted a black cat 1 1/2 yrs old and saw this necklace with another consumer and had to have. Google Queen that I am found it on Amazon and soooooo much cheaper! This pendant is beautiful and received a lot of compliments. A beautiful piece. I am very happy to find this on Amazon and delivery was very quick.
My boyfriend bought this for me, and I absolutely love it! It's the perfect size, the diamonds are small but there's lots of them are they are very shiny. The chain is perfect, not very thin or flimsy, good length.
A perfect gift for someone who loves cats!
Necklace is fantastic! looks great! only complaint would be the clasp moves around ( as the chain moves on your neck like most chains) but the clasp can sometimes get stuck behind the cats head and its difficult to get out. But other than that its great! - Netaya - Cat Lovers - Black Diamond'

I ordered the black/red heel and it arrived with no red sole. The picture that is posted it not accurate because they no longer make red soles. In addition, my shoes had a warning label that says their matierals contain lead that can cause birth defects/reproductive harm. I never read this anywhere before I bought them. I hope Amazon pays for me to ship this back. The Highest Heel Women's Hottie Stiletto,Black Patent,8 M US
I ordered these shoes for the same reason most of us probably did, "The Red Sole", but when I got them they came with no red sole. At first I was very dissapointed and hadn't even try them on before I decided to return them, but I figure I see how they look on anyways. And to my surprise they look so amazing, and my legs look fabulous. They're pretty comfy, and go grea with just about everything. ALthough I still wish it came with a red sole because that would jus make them perfecion, I'll go ahead and keep them because they are beautful looking shoes.
****ATTENTION***
THEY NO LONGER MAKE THEM WITH THE RED SOLE.
This is a surprisingly well made shoe considering the price. I was searching for a replica for the Louboutin Pigalle and discovered this shoe.
Although a very attractive shoe and well made, the heel is just to high to walk in let alone comfortably and I am not a stiletto amateur in the least. They are also rather tight on my foot especially in the toe area there's no room and they don't come in half sizes. I wear a size 6 and 6 1/2 depending whether or not a shoe is true to size (for reference).
I tried to get used to them and break them in, but after about 10 minutes it was unbearable, my feet were sore.
Anyway, in summary great shoe, well made considering the price tag, very attractive, looks sexy, but impossible to actually wear. Maybe fine for just playing around taking pictures and sitting looking cute but, not for actual wear in my opinion. Unfortunately, such a lovely shoe, I have to send them back.'
