Kindle Reading Light - book light, reading light

Visit Store Now !!

Just received the Kandle and it is a neat, compact design. I already own a Mighty Bright and an M-Edge light, for comparison below.



Pros:

- Very lightweight (partly because of the button batteries).

- Compact, stores nicely.

- Great for a bare Kindle - fits perfectly on the top edge and provides adequate illumination for the screen.



Cons:

- Substantial falloff of light on the bottom half of the Kindle. Sufficient for reading, but a noticeable difference in intensity and could be a strain on old or tired eyes; really noticeable when clipped to a cover.

- Won't work (very well) on a Kindle with a cover that uses straps. I have several M-Edge covers currently, and all are too thick to attach the clip with any stability over cover and Kindle together. Clipping on the folded back puts it too far away to adequately illuminate even the top half of the screen, and clipping it on the Kindle directly between the cover and Kindle stretches the straps and risks damaging the rear skin if your Kindle has one. It does work on Kindle covers with the Amazon-type covers with just the metal spine clips (and no straps), but I avoid those because of potential damage to the Kindle frame (and you should too). Have an Oberon cover coming*, so could be better suited to this design - we shall see; I expect any cover thick enough to protect the Kindle would be too thick to use this light.

- Don't have one, so this is a guess, but based on the K2 results I would think would be marginally (if that ) adequate for a DX - just too much difference in light at the bottom of the screen.



Neutral: Battery life currently unknown, but the button 2032 batteries are more expensive than AAAs and are not rechargeable



For neat, light weight, trim design and compactness, I give the Kandle a thumbs-up. For practical use and good screen illumination on covered Kindles (which I suspect is the majority), the Mighty Bright and M-Edge e-Luminator lights are superior Kindle lights, although not as cool looking!



*Addendum: The light DOES fit on the top (1/4") edge of the Oberon cover over the Kindle, so it is usable, but light falloff on the lower half of the screen is significant. Much less illumination that even the M-Edge light, which is just adequate. Great design, marginal functionality. Kandle by Ozeri LED Book Light for the Amazon Kindle (1st and latest generation), and other eBook readers - in Black

I would've gone with the white Kandle, but I had a Black Kindle cover/skin so I chose this one. Overall, the Kandle is perfect! It feels sturdy enough to just throw it in my pack or put it in my pocket without worrying about it breaking. The 2 LED's provide enough illumation to light up the whole screen without bothering people around you yet at teh same time, lighting up the screen enough for you to be able to easily read. Now, I've read some people complaining about how the light isnt bright enough, or that the light isnt spread out well. In my opinion, those people probably are tryiing very hard to find something to complain about. I found the Kandle to be bright enough; when you're about to read at night, let your eyes adjust to the dark setting, and you'll find the Kandle to provide enough light for you to be able to read everything easily. I've purchased about four other booklights previous to this, and this is my favorite without a doubt.

I Love this Light! I love how it is so small and portable! I travel alot and this is the most practical light for the Kindle I've seen or used- its small, lightweight, portable, durable, and it gets the job done. I'd recommend this for anyone who loves to read at night.

I received this as a present, but after using for a few nights, I loved it! So I bought one for my wife. Now she takes it everywhere she goes. We both agree that the Kandle is a fantastic light that fixes alot of the headaches experienced from other book lights. Overall, the Kandle seems to be a A+ in terms of build quality and design. The clamp is not to tight but not to loose so it fits snugly on the Kindle. It also has nice pads so that it won't scratch. The light is sufficient enough for most situations. I did read a few reviews saying how its not bright enough but my wife and I found the lighting to be perfect. If it was any brighter, it would be like shining a flashlight at people around you while you're reading. I also love the fact that this does not glare, and even if it does it can be easily adjusted. This is a very well-thought product that does what it is supposed to do. I'd recommend this to ANYONE who has a Kindle.

The kandle is downright awesome! I've went through about 5 book lights looking for the perfect light for my kindle, but none of them seemed to be the perfect one. or at least until I bought the Kandle. Other book lights had bad qualities that really out-weighed the benefits, such as hotspots, glare, heavy, portable.... but the Kandle had all the perfect qualities i was looking for and I am glad to say that my exhaustive search is over for the best book light. - Book Light - Reading Light - Kandle - Kindle Reading Light'

This is actually a pretty decent case, especially for the price. Adds minimal bulk and snaps on & off easily. All cameras, ports, kickstand, etc. function perfectly. Power button is a little bit harder to depress, but I suppose this would be the same for any case. Also, as you can see from the photo, the little rubber circle on the back of the phone is not accessible with this case. Not sure what that's for anyway. (Thankfully) I've not yet dropped the phone so I can't tell you how well it holds up in that respect. Will be sure update if this case lets me down! BLACK For HTC ThunderBolt Rubberized Hard Case Cover

Now that I've owned this case for a couple weeks:

- The rubberized coating on top of the hardened black case is flecking off from light usage (pulling it out of my pocket and putting it back in my pocket).

- The case is noticeably thicker than other cases I have bought.



My thoughts: If you are using this for a short term purpose, it is absolutely worth the cheap price. In fact, it could be worth the price to just buy a couple of these and cycle through them. However, I am staying away from buying this case again and moving on to something that I don't have to take the time to replace on a regular basis.

For the price you can't beat this case. It covers the phone well, fits snugly and can be popped on and off with ease. It leaves the little rubber circle under the kickstand uncovered, which differs from the product photos above, which is a good thing (I think? not sure what that is any way). All buttons are easy to press and all ports/camera are uncovered. Overall a good product for the money

In a nutshell: this case works, but inelegantly. It's rubberized hard plastic, covers all edges and corners, and recesses the camera so it can avoid scratches. It also allows use of the kickstand - handy. Unfortunately, the rubber "chips" or wears off at edges quickly, but that's cosmetic, and you're buying this to protect your phone, right? Unfortunately, this case has some major flaws.



1) It's virtually impossible to get off once you snap it on; there is a small slot on one side, but it actually took so much force that it bent my fingernail. Using a penny also works, but still requires force, and snapped off one of the corner notch/slots. This is very bad if you need to switch batteries, or pull a battery to get out of a hardware lock.



2) It compromises the phone's heat dissipation. I don't overclock my phones, but even normal usage makes it heat up to scary temps (may be around 50C). This will definitely shorten battery life and lifespan of the phone.



3) It becomes very difficult to pull down the notification bar because the top edge of the case prevents your finger from making full contact with the bar to drag it down. You can smoosh your finger in, or use your fingertip (instead of the pad), but it's very annoying.



I do feel like my phone is very safe in it though, which is the primary purpose. My contract expires in November, so I don't plan on using my Tbolt for long, otherwise I would avoid it for the heat issues. And as a note, it makes the Thunderbolt even more bulky; I don't mind, I have big hands. If you don't avoid, it would be hard to hold and be able to reach all the screen with your thumb.

Produce received looks nothing like the case pictured. The finish on the case is terrible. The case is basically just a white case that someone spray painted black. I tried multiple times and was unable to get the case to completely close on the phone. When I went to remove the case to clean my phone the tabs on the case broke so it is now worthless. It is definitely worth the extra money to get the Seidio Innocase.



Seidio Innocase II Surface Case for HTC ThunderBolt (Black)

If you want to keep your TB safe, this is your only choice. It's solid, works easily, and it's effective. I've dropped it twice with nary a scratch, dent, or blip on the screen. The swivel belt clip is ideal (even though I swore I'd never be a pocket-protector-style phone geek. Don't think twice, it's alright.

After about a week of waiting, I finally got an email statiung they didn't have the color I wanted and would I accept a clear one as a substitute while I waited. I did, although I wondered how they could have a clear rubberized case. Well, that's because it is plastic. It no more protects the phone than the outer cover, in fact, the one time I did drop the phone from a mere 12 inches to the table, the plastic broke off into three pieces. It is not rubberized.

I was happily surprised with this case. Being that it was so cheap I was taking a gamble and half expected it to fall apart right away. It seems relatively sturdy and snaps on effortlessly. Its a little hard to snap off but I see that as a good thing so if I were to drop it, it wouldnt come off. However, I don't believe it would be all that much protection from a high drop seeing as its just a thin layer of soft touch plastic. It doesn't add noticeable weight or thickness and also looks nice making my Thunderbolt all black. The front side also adds a small ridge around the edges so you don't have to worry about setting your phone face-down and scratching it. All of the buttons are useable and not effected by the case. The material feels nice and adds grip. I defiantly recommend this case considering the price if you are looking for a mildly protective case thats simple and attractive. I aslo highly suggest not wasting your money on a more expensive case that looks like its drop resistant because very few are. - Htc Thunderbolt'

I was skeptical I admit



I moved out of my house into a much smaller townhouse and I had to give up my Klipsche 2 series 5.1 system.....I HATED giving up surround sound. I have been bouncing back forth between this one and the CT350 model. I was scared that this wouldn't be as loud as I would like it........wow was I wrong. The room I have it in is only 11 X 15 (system on short side) and this thing is fantastic. It has a max volume of 50 and I find 24 to be more than enough. Is it true 5.1....no... but it has great surround effects and very full sound.....you will feel like the action is going around you which is what we all want anyway isn't it?



I tested it with Avatar Blu Ray..... Lord of the Rings ROTK Disc 2 DVD......Invictus ON Demand (for the accents.....hard on TV speakers).....was blown away each time



I turned up the center to +5 to bring out the dialog a little more and set the sub at +2



I also mounted the speaker ABOVE the TV which I feel really helps to bring out the surround effects because they don't get lost down near the ground around the furniture



It is a little slow switching inputs but that is to be expected......the remote will only control Sony products....so if you have non Sony stuff invest in a Harmony remote



If you are planning this for a really large room and you are going to be sitting 17 or more feet away maybe you should consider the 400W 350 model..... but for a normal room you will be thrilled by this unit.



I couldnt be more happy with this purchase Sony HT-CT150 3D Sound Bar System

i was really skeptical about going with a sound bar at first, but all of those thoughts were out the window as soon as the system got broken in (about 1 or 2 day period to fully break in the system). coming from the traditional 5.1 systems (have had systems ranging from home theater in a box-type of setups to bose lifestyle 5.1's to martin logan set ups), i was really surprised at how well this 1 speaker set up simulated "surround sound". i found myself looking over my shoulder every now and then, while watching movies, because i was hearing things from alot of different places, other than just in front of me. the CT150 was supposed to be a temporary set up for me, but after about a month of use, i'm really considering sticking to soundbars. the simplicity and ergonomics just cannot be compared to by big, traditional 5.1 systems.



as for sound quality, the vocals are nice and crisp. i know the CT100 had a vocal problem, but i can hear everything crystal clear on my CT150 (center channel set at +5). i have my CT150 in a very open living room (about 20x35), so i have my subwoofer level set at +5 (settings go from -6 to +6). the bass levels would be comparable to my bose lifestyle 25 system, with the CT150 having a slight bass advantage. all in all, a great little package. i really couldn't think of a better, more ergonomic set up for a smaller living room or bedroom. i might just stick with soundbars from now on and just upgrade to bigger/better soundbar set ups.

Background: I am an audio enthusiast with 3 small children. My previous audio system, run by 3 Carver stereo amps, is in boxes in the basement, as I did not want little hands breaking things or blowing up pieces. The old system had more spent in Monster Cable wiring then this system cost. Life changes and the wife did not want speakers and wires everywhere so I made a compromise.



Current Setup:

Sony Bravia TV (2006)

Sony HTCT150

Sony Digital Media Port TDM-iP10

Sony PS3 - Original 60gig

Nintendo Wii

Leap Frog - Zippity



At the time of this review I have owned the HTCT150 for just over 2 weeks and have been quite impressed with the results. The main reason I got the system is for movies and TV watching and being able to hear and control the sound. The output range is good and it does a nice job with lows and high end. I liked that the system could be passive as the PS3 is our main DVD player and entertainment source, i.e. Netflix streaming. I have the PS3 hooked up via HDMI. HDMI up to the TV and from the TV I have both optical out and RCA. The TV will not do ARC (audio return channels) though HDMI and the TV will not convert analog audio (Wii and Zippity) to optical. I let the TV handle the analog audio, RCA switching and have the RCA's go into SA-CD/CD, seems on the HTCT150 the TV RCAs will only work without optical in hooked up.



I have both an older 80gig iPod video and the iPhone 3G that I have hooked to the system using the Digital Media Port TDM-iP10. I use the video iPod for audio only and have full control over it using the remote for the HTCT150. I did a brief test with the iPhone by putting it in iPod mode, it worked as an audio source and had control of it with the remote. I did try to display pictures and it would not pass images or work as a video source. It seems the TDM-iP10 is audio only but you do get control with the HTCT150 remote.



One of the big reasons for my purchase was for nighttime watching and dynamic compression. The system has 2 layers of compression you can use to keep the sound even and not wake the kid. Woke the oldest already before turning on the compression. The system has NIGHT MODE, this is compression in the digital amp of the HTCT150 and limits all sources. Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) only works in Dolby Digital, but that covers the TV and PS3 and has 3 levels, None, Standard, Max. With turning both NIGHT MODE and Audio DRC on I can watch TV or movies and hear no volume difference between show and commercial or dialogue and explosions, this is important for us Mom's and Dad's.



Audiophile Time: I have played with the system with the LPCM and BluRay audio out and have been able to hear a difference. As they say " you are only as good as your source" . Dolby Digital bit rate out is around 960Kbs and Dolby True is around 7Mbs. By going into the Video Setup of the PS3 (go figure) and changing the audio output from bitstream to LPCM you can get the better sound. Bitstream outputs the encoding on the DVD/BluRay, LPCM has the PS3 do your decoding.



Overall impressions: The audio performance for a system under $300 is very impressive I feel. The surround effect is very weak, however if you have a good 5.1 or 7.1 mix as source there is a more open feel to the audio. I just have not felt like it has replaced a true 5.1 system. It completely has met the "Wife Acceptance" Factor that we all know is very important. I am very happy with this system and I am not afraid that little hands will destroy it and if they do, oh well it wasn't that expensive.'

Size on the label is "0 to 6 months," but should be 6 to 9 months in my opinion. No newborn could possibly wear this, it is just way too big. I ordered it for our 2 month old to wear on Halloween and was shocked when the giant outfit arrived. It is very cute though and the packaging would make it a great gift for an older baby. Very disappointed to have to send it back.

I just purchased this outfit for my granddaughter. At the moment she is wearing preemie size. She is starting to hit a growth spurt. This is a grow into outfit. It is adorable.

Dell Laptop Battery - battery, laptop battery

Visit Store Now !!

I own a Dell E1505 laptop computer. The original battery did not last very long and since I have been using my laptop as a portable 'desktop' computer. Recently I decided to purchase a new batter as my travel frequency has gone up. I normally purchase items from Amazon with good to excellent feedback. So I was comparing the 9-cell battery by Tavas with the one by New Trent and I ended up purchased the one from Tavas as it had a better rating (7200mAh vs 6600mAh) and is slightly cheaper because I had to pay tax if I ordered the one by New Trent.



The battery arrived and immediately I put the battery to test. Boom it was not working. The computer BIOS complained that it does not recognize the battery. But when I booted into Windows I can see the battery meter displayed about 52% charge and I can read the battery ID (don't remember the exact ID No.) and such but apparently the battery is not charging. I removed the power cord and the computer was still on so the battery was actually supplying power to the laptop. When I plug the power cord back, the little power cord icon was showing that the battery was charging but after a few minutes the charging icon disappeared so again the battery was sitting idle.



I called Dell technical support and was advised to only buy Dell battery. Finally they told me that the issue can be fixed by flashing (the BIOS) but I have to purchase a one time support which would cost me $59.95 because my laptop is out of warranty support. So I decide to return the battery since Amazon offers a easy return process.



I then reorder the 9-cell battery by New Trent. It took only three to four days for the battery to arrive and again I immediately plugged in the battery for a test. The BIOS did not even notice that there was a new battery. Every thing just worked as my original battery. I booted into Windows and found that the battery was charging normally. This battery, when fully charged, gives me about 4 to 5 hours run time with my laptop set for Maximum Battery (as opposed to Maximum Performance). So far I am very happy with this battery but I only own it for less then two days. BTW, the battery is rated at 7200mAH even though the ad on Amazon says the battery is rated at 6600mAH. New Trent 11.10V,7200mAh, 9 cells, Li-Ion, Replacement Laptop Battery For Dell Inspiron 1501, Inspiron 6400, Inspiron E1505, Latitude 131L, Vostro 1000 Brand New

Received this battery a couple days ago and have been impressed since. My old battery for my Dell I6400 would last about 40 minutes before it would so graciously turn off with no warning. I saw this as the sign to get a new battery. I was pleasantly surprised to find this New Trent battery for under $40 on Amazon. My first replacement battery for this Dell cost over $100 and didn't even last 1 year before the above mentioned symptoms.



My Dell computer recognized this battery without a problem and I am getting between 3 and 4 hours of battery life now. I would definitely recommend this product after only having it for a few days now.

With the original battery in my Dell Inspiron 1501 worn out -- only about 10 minutes of runtime before it would require recharge, and with the computer giving me constant messages that the battery needs to be replaced, I went to Dell to buy a replacement. I was shocked to find that a new Dell battery would cost nearly $150! While uncertain about buying an "aftermarket" battery, I researched quite a bit, looking at various batteries, and after reading a number of excellent reviews for New Trent products, I decided to purchase one. The battery arrived promptly, I installed it today, and my Dell immediately recognized the battery and began charging it. Given that I have just received the battery, I am not yet sure what the full run time will be -- as I have not yet discharged it. However, after some of the bad experiences I learned of during my research with folks who bough other brands of batteries from other companies, I am very pleased with the New Trent product. And, you can't beat the price -- less than 1/3 the cost of a new Dell battery! Finally, I also checked out New Trent's website, and spoke with the company on the phone with some questions, and they were incredibly helpful and kind, and really stood behind their product. I do not hesitate at all to recommend this company, and I will absolutely return to New Trent the next time I need a laptop battery.

I have had this battery for several weeks now. The price was low and that made me a little worried but since it was ordered from Amazon I knew they would make it right if there was any problem. It holds several hours of charge and I couldn't be more pleased! I will definitely re-order this battery when I need one.

This is the fourth battery I've had to buy for my Dell Inspiron E1505. I seem to go through battery's fast. That is until I read what others had to say about Dell batteries being less than adequate. As I searched for another replacement I came across this one on Amazon and chose it because of positive reviews and the more than reasonable price. It arrived quickly and upon looking it over I found it to be a well assembled product, that plus the quality packaging set me up to the fact that this is a excellent product. I'm sure I wont be disappointed and so far I haven't been. - Dell Inspiron - Laptop Battery - E1505 - Battery'

duracell - alkaline batteries, duracell

These batteries are a very good choice for an inexpensive alkaline. Heavy duty batteries are not cost effective because although cheaper, they have a very short run time. To get the best bang for your buck, go for alkalines like these.



The "Procell" designation is basically Duracell's way of marking these batteries as ones intended for industrial applications. They make them as a separate line so they won't directly compete with their consumer lines.



My experience is that these batteries do not last quite as long as the top consumer lines from Duracell and Energizer. However, they are within 10-20% (depending on the application), and are considerably cheaper. So, they are much more cost effective.



Unless you are using them in an application where it is difficult to change the batteries, I recommend going with these instead of spending more. DURACELL C12 PROCELL Professional Alkaline Battery

I've been using Duracell Procells (sizes AAA, AA, C, and 9V) in pretty much every small, battery powered device I own for about a year now. In that time, I've noticed absolutely no difference between them and standard Duracell Coppertops or Energizers. Wii controllers, LED flashlights, Maglights, wireless mice, digital cameras, etc... there's been no change in the battery life of any of them. In my opinion, they're just as good in every way and an absolute steal for the price.

I purchased these batteries to power my 2-year old sons toy car track that he plays with constantly.



The first set of these batteries were installed 2 weeks ago and haven't seen his toy even as much as slow down. In comparison to the no-name brand that came with it that lasted 2 days and the cheapo's I picked up from Menards that lasted a week, these lasting 2 weeks is an eternity....and still going strong!



I'm very pleased with these batteries. 5 stars!

Ordered 3 boxes to go with my Cables Unlimited Audio Wireless Indoor/Outdoor 4 Speaker system same day purchase on Amazon. All showed up on the same day-only just a couple days of ordering. The speaker system requires 6 eaches per speaker so 24 total or two boxes required. Loved the price/no tax/free shipping and promptness as well the as the professional grade of the batteries. It made everything so convenient and right to my door service. Thanks Amazon, would defintely recommend this product/service!

It was time to get the battery candles in my windows for fall so I headed out to the dollar store for my c cells as usual. Well none to be had and was told when we do get them they are not 2 per pack. Last year they were 3 per pack and the year before 4 per pack. So I went to other discount stores only to find the best deal to be 2 for $3.50. I am sorry but that is just to much for my budget and 11 windows. So as always Amazon came through. These are Super copper tops! I figure they will last as long if not longer than the regular ones at the store costing $3.50 for 2. Super heavy duty ones usually carry me till Spring so I'm not worried these will provide less. Great value and the Prime Shipping was great as usual.

.....and all the batteries tested out at 1.63v.



Time will tell how long they're good for when used; mAh. For now, it's safe to write that they spec'd out when voltage checked and they're, when compared to retail units at big box stores, with Amazon Prime two-day shipping to your front door, an excellent price. - Duracell - Alkaline Batteries'

Patio Furniture Sets

Visit Store Now !!

I have this set for a couple of weeks now and have to say that I really like it. It looks great and is pretty comfortable. The cushions are included and seem to be quite weather resistant. They are a little hard, but I think that after using them for a while, they will break in a litte.

What I like about it as well, is that it has little metal feet - this gives the set a nice and sleek look!



When my order arrived, the table and one cushion was missing. I contacted the seller and they were great - they sent everything to me right away with UPS.



I can really recommend this set - and getting it at almost 50% off, makes it a great deal, too. Genuine Ohana Outdoor Patio Wicker Furniture 7pcs All Weather Gorgeous Couch Set

We did a lot of searching before purchasing this set and just love it! It came very quickly and is very good quality. The set is very sturdy and the cushions don't seem to move around when sitting down/standing up. We have a rug underneath our set, so the pieces don't move around either (not sure if they would without the rug). The cushions are a bit hard, but I think they will soften with use/time/warmer weather. I'd recommend this set.

I purchased two sets from Ohana Depot, this one with the 7pcs and another set. The sectional pieces are very well sized and look smaller than you'd think. Make sure to measure your space to insure you have enough room. These sectionals are very modern/contemporary and are slightly lower to the ground that most outdoor patio furniture.



The pieces aren't heavy, but they aren't lightweight either. I was able to handle each piece by myself without much hassle. The pieces are very well packaged, however 25% of the boxes can significant cuts or damage to the outside during shipment. One box had a giant 6" whole with a piece of wood sticking out (there is no wood in the product)... I think it was the palette itself that got damaged. Fortunately, the section piece in question suffered no damage.



The pieces are your typical metal tubing with the plastic/synthetic rattan material that you see from most outdoor furniture to make them durable. There is a very slight incline to the backs of the pieces, but not that noticeable. If you're looking for something with a decent incline, this might not be the set for you. I am ok with them as I find myself laying down on them anyway and all my guests have enjoyed sitting on them. The backs are pretty low (as is typical with contemporary furniture), so it doesn't provide much back support. From the picture the rattan may look brown. It's not. It's very dark black/espresso colored.



The pieces are well made, the welds are hefty and I don't anticipate any problems. I did see some small cuts (not tears) on several pieces that look like they were done before shipping, but they are small and not noticeable.



The cushions are firm, but comfortable. They do have a strange smell to them.. chemically, could be a weatherproofing spray. The material is a lot more beige/khaki colored than the picture shows, but it's a nice color. I find the cushions moving around on their own a lot, and not staying in place. This could be addressed by the manufacturer with some fasteners. For the customer, I think I will try some industrial Velcro.



Connecting the pieces together not as easy as you would think (there's a U-shaped clip you attach to the bottom of the frames)



I am really happy with my purchase and would buy more of these again. For the price, this set can't be beat. I've been looking around at similar sets and have seen comparable sets for 2x-3x what I paid for.



Summary:

Pros:

+Well made

+Lightweight

+Easy to move

+Firm but comfortable

+Easy to assemble (practically no assembly)



Cons:

I don't really have many against the set...

- Cushions don't stay in place well



I'll offer these and general against the manufacturer:

- They don't sell individual pieces, so if you want a particular item, say a corner, you need to get a set that includes the corner

- They don't sell covers. Their website says their furniture doesn't need it and is more or less weatherproof.

I shopped for months before deciding on this Ohana Depot set. It was shipped promptly and arrived with all pieces undamaged. We love this furniture! it is lightweight which makes it easy to move around and change the setting. The cushions are beautiful with a lovely taupe material. They are firm but very comfortable. I am so pleased!

I really am happy with the look and feel of the patio set. The cushions are fairly soft, just need to be broken in to soften them up more. The only downside is that the seatbacks are fairly low making the back rest of the seats a little uncomfortable, especially for taller people. And, if its really windy the pillows tend to get carried away by the wind. But great looking set for the price and number of pieces.

this sectional fits our needs very well. it ha a low profile so it does not seem bulky but it seats multiple people comfortably. make sure to provide your current phone number when ordering this item as the company will call you prior to delivery.'
