My Moultrie game camera failed the second time it was used. It was still under warranty. I reported to Moultrie and received no response. I reminded them near (but before) the end of the warranty period and they apologized, explaining that they had mislaid my earlier request for help. I followed the instructions they provided and found that indeed the unit would need their repair, but when I contacted them, they refused to help because by this time, the warranty had elapsed. I am pursuing complaints through the State Attorneys General of Ohio and Alabama and am considering a claim in court. Upon looking for help I noticed other reviews by consumers that had warranty problems with Moultrie. Moultrie Gamespy 5 Megapixel Digital Game Camera

I order two of these cameras and got them 2 days before the estimated date give by Amazon. Eveything went nice and easy for my first time trying Amazon. I set the cameras up and two days later had some high quality pic's of some deer on my corn piles. I have had Wildview's brands in the past, they had a life span of 1 or 2 season at best depending on wet weather. These are set in an outer case and seem to be more water resistant, and is easier to check the operation by being able to remove it from the case and not the tree. I have shopped other websites and Gander Mountian and Dicks Sporting goods. You will not find a better product for under 125 dollars and with free shipping to boot. However, Just FYI. You do have to buy batteries and a memory card.

Camera quality is good. I do like the laser it has to show you where the camera is targeting. The drawback is it eats batteries fast, and it takes 6 C batteries. With all the other cameras usng six volt you can easly use the external plug in the side to use solar power. Problem with the Moltrie is it is a nine volt and you can't find a sosor power pannel for it. OH Moltrie will sell you one for a hundred bucks but that is more than the camera itself.hunting camera

I will never ,I repeat never buy another piece of equipment made by moultree again.The electronics on this camera is a (POS).I Had the moultree d-40 They last maybe a year if your lucky.So looking at the price this new camera was suppose to be better then the d-40 but when I opened up the box the camera wouldnt set correctly and would not work in any mode .I guess the old saying is true,you get what you pay for.Spend the extra money and get something better.

if the bird / animal is standing, this camera takes a great picture, nice and clear, good color. BUT!!! if the animal is walking, then at best I get a picture of the animals tail, but more often I get a picture of nothing at all. very disappointing at best.

I've only had the D50 in use for a couple of weeks but have been pleased with the results so far. I hung it on an apple tree on my property and got pix of deer, fox, and coyote. The temperatures have gone below zero but that hasn't effected the results. I did note that the Amazon write-up indicated it used C-cells, but it uses D-cells. It has a battery indicator and I'm still at 99% so feel that short battery life won't be an issue. For the price and for amateur use, it seems to fit the bill.

good ( not great )camera.if you are starting out or afraid some thug will take your junk this is the camera for you.an idiot can set it up and w/a memory card you can take your digital camera w/you-view the pics and erase the card w/out moving the camera.not the fastest gun in the west but if you aim it properly you won't be unhappy.remember what you paid--this is not a 300 $ camera. i have 4 of these.

'

I have two of these that I purchased last year for elk/deer season. I kid you not, I have over 3000 pics, day, night, doesnt matter. Great photo's of Deer, Elk, Bobcat, Coyote, etc. Even with all the shots, the batteries will last the season. The ease of use is great. You dont need a high end "famous name" camera to do the work. Go out and buy some stronger bungee cords. The pair that comes with it works, but over time and in the sun they tend to fail. Plus they are thin. I doesn't look like I can post any of the actual pics here. But trust me, you will like what you get. I even captures hikers and paintballers running by. I have them already set up for this year's elk season and found a nice spot that I didn't even realize that there were some big mule deer bucks!

I've only had the camera a few weeks and it's only been in operation 5 days and nights because of the foul weather. It's easy to set up and operate. It takes great pictures. I am impressed with the quality of the images taken in low light and with the flash. I'm also impressed by it's low energy consumption. After several hundred pictures, mostly at night, with temperatures in the low teens, the batteries still show 95%. Can't wait for the weather to change for the better so I can get it back out there. I have two older moultrie cameras that still work(even after bears have chewed on them), but I see myself replacing them with the Gamespy soon. The Moultrie Gamespy is a quality camera at a great price. - Moultrie - Hunting Camera - Trail Camera - Game Camera'

Lower Back

I have suffered from lower back problems after an injury in the U.S. Army 7 years ago. I have tried numerous back supports which did nothing more than wrap my entire waist very tight causing discomfort after extended wearing times. I was preparing to take the family on vacation and knowing that we would be walking and standing in lines for hours I thought I would give this belt a test and see how it compared to belts hundreds of dollars more....the end result? it passed with flying colors!! It is very comfortable to wear and can easily be adjusted in seconds, even while being worn under clothing. It provides superior support to your lower back especially around the 4th and 5th lumbar where my injury is located. Don't spend money on a similar belt that does the same thing, the Mueller Adjustable belt is fantastic and worth every penny! Mueller Adjustable Abdominal Back Support, Black, One Size

while I was searching products and reading reviews I saw none from women that did a lot of heavy lifting. Most reviews were from men that simply wanted better posture. I inquired with Mueller directly and found that they had several products for me. I lift about 5000 pounds per day and my back is always sore. I've even hurt it twice. I knew I needed something but didn't know what. I wore this brace today for the first time and did my work as usual. At the end of the day after I got home, I removed the brace and an amazing thing happened. My back wasn't sore at all!! I know this brace will save me a lot of pain and money in the future. Go with Mueller products. They are as wonderful as the company itself.

Unfortunately, I have 2 partially herniated disks in my back (L3, L4). A combination of age, football, and moving too many times left me in middle age in a tough spot. I have to be careful when lifting, shoveling snow, etc. This brace is perfect for me for a number of reasons: it provides good support while allowing you the freedom to move; it's well-made and should last a long time; it's not close to $100, like a lot of others are; it's really easy to adjust (this was a big factor for me) -- attach the large velcro fasteners, and cinch it to the desired final tightness with a one-handed adjustment strap that actuates the webbing that forms the rear of the unit between the supports on either side of the spinal column. Worth every penny -- should have bought this years ago. Highly recommended.

I bought this back support, as I have a blown disc in my spine (L5) and am sick of tweeking it. This brace is so comfy and supportive, I feel vulnerable without it. If you need to protect your lower spine, I say get this one for support.

My wife fell down some stairs and hurt her back while on vacation at a lake house. This brace made it possible for her to move and tolerate the car ride home. Particularly good if you need to crank it down tight. Very good support, easy to use, worth more than you pay for it.

much better than the other mueller sold here, which i had and seldom used...why? the other one fits snug alright, but after a half hour it needs loosening as the area swells...this one is easier to adjust and is far more comfortable...i can see wearing this one for hours at a stretch.

downside is this one uses shoelaces for the girdling and they can get tangled fairly easily if you're not careful when putting the brace on.

I purchased this product in April and used it for a month (worked great while it lasted). After stopping using it for 2 weeks (while on vacation), the elastic stopped working! It just does not stretch anymore and now it is too late to return or exchange the product!I would not recommend this to anyone. For that price the elastic should be of better quality!'

Angry Birds 5 Plush Red Bird With Sound - blueproton, board game

Visit Store Now !!

This is one of the smaller birds (about the size of a baseball) but it has quality plush and appliques - it looks suitably confused just like the chicken from the game! Of note, this one has the most details of the set - with a soft yellow plush underbelly and big appliques under the eyes.



To get the sound, you press the forehead (between the eyes and the crest) and it plays 3 different sounds from the game. The sounds come at random rather than a sequence, which is nice. One of the sounds is unique to that particular egg bombing bird.



They have a larger base so they sit still without rolling over despite being ball shaped. The noise maker is suitably padded and you can throw this around quite a bit without worrying it will break the sound box. This bird has been airborn quite often and hasn't stopped working a bit.



We have all of the sizes of the birds and this size is nice and compact - a bit firmer than the larger ones.



In all, it's expensive for the size but it is a quality piece. Angry Birds 5" Plush White Bird with Sound

i myself don't really see - what the whole hooplah is about these angry birds = but my son LOVED these. I got all the birds they had. The other kids at the party were extremely jealous. They all make a sound when you press a certain part of the bird. They came pretty fast. they were individually wrapped in a plastic bag. very satisfied with this seller. might be back to buy the pigs

The kids love Angry Birds and were so excited to get this toy. It made a noise when they squeezed it. They were throwing them and the first time either bird hit the ground, the sound stopped working. Very disappointed. - Blueproton - Plush Toys - Angry Birds Blue Bird - Board Game'

When Cars first came out on DVD, I was a little disappointed because there weren't very many extras on it. I didn't understand why Pixar would take one of their most popular films and give it such a mediocre treatment. Well.....now that I have the Blu-ray version of this film, I think I know why. They were saving it all for Cars debut on hi-def. This has to be the best looking picture I have seen yet on a hi-def title. I looks almost like the entire film is in 3-D!!! I managed to catch part of this movie on a hi-def cable channel and thought I would compare the two pictures. After a little fiddling, I managed to get both screens at the exact same frame, and was blown away at how much clearer the Blu-ray picture is. The Cine-Explore feature on this is the best special feature I've seen on a hi-def title. It is almost sensory overload at the amount of material that continuously pops up across the screen while the film is playing. This disc will be the one I will pop in to show my friends what Blu-ray is capable of doing. Every Blu-ray owner needs to get this title. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Cars (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo in Blu-ray Packaging)

When I saw this movie in the theaters I enjoyed watching it enough, but I kept thinking this was the worst Pixar film I have seen. Funny thing is the worst Pixar film is still A grade material compared to most other animated features released. And while Cars didn't wow me on the big screen the way The Incredibles or Monsters Inc (or a score of other Pixar films) the film grew on me in a big way when we got it home. You see my son (two years old at the time) loved to watch it. Being the inclusive dad that I am I would watch it with him. I got what Pixar was doing when I first saw Cars, but it didn't resonate with me until repeated viewings. Now, while it's still not my favorite Pixar movie, Cars made a believer out of me in what they were saying about this film.



You see Cars isn't just a cartoon about a world where cars are people. It's a tribute of the history of the automobile, a nod to NASCAR and its roots, and a love letter to Route 66. All of this done in a family-friendly and colorful animated universe. Any car nut with a broad spectrum interest in the automobile will find lots of different cars from different eras getting face time on this movie. NASCAR fans will love the racing sequences and level of detail dedicated to the sport. Those who remember the days before the Interstate system where there was as much fun travelling to your destination as there was being there will feel nostalgic for that time again. The movie hits on multiple levels, which is what makes it better than the sum of its parts.



Take that all away and you still have a fun cartoon. You have cars talking and acting like people for God's sake! The kids will eat that up! Cars are getting into crazy situations that are in their own way a slight play on human issues. There are plenty of little jokes on that vein that both the kids and parents can laugh over. There is even a joke or two with a double meaning the adults may get a kick out of. This is all classic Pixar and does much to fill in the little spaces between story development.



The story? Well like I said when I first saw it I got what they were saying, but wasn't impressed. It's essentially much like an episode of The Andy Griffith Show I remember seeing where somebody from the big city gets stuck in Mayberry, desparate to get out, only to end up loving the town and wanting more. Maybe it was because it was in a way the preachiest of the Pixar films telling us we should slow down our busy lives and go back to simpler times. Not that it's a bad message. Just not one that held onto on first viewing. Well after watching it several more times with my excited toddler the little details come into play that I either missed or ignored the first time around. The sleepy town that slowly comes to life the more their new visitor gives to it. The beautiful backdrops of painted deserts and canyons. There is character growth going on.



Cartoons live and die by their voice actors. While just about every animation company puts out movies that take advantage of celebrity power to gain an audience Pixar is one of the few who has consistently been able to get the best performances from them, and cars is no different. Every celebrity voice is pitch perfect and puts you in the view of the character more than the actor. Larry the Cable Guy as Mater the tow truck easily steals the show, but does it in such a way where you absolutely know it's Larry doing the voice, but you see Mater as a character in of itself rather than a cartoon Larry. Owen Wilson puts his best sly, but whiner-like demeanor for racing star McQueen that's his best. Some characters I still have trouble recognizing the transformation is so good. Tony Shalhoub (better known as Monk from the TV series) is absolutely unbelievable as tire shop owner Luigi. Better yet Michael Keaton as Chic Hicks barely sounds like Michael. Michael makes what is essentially the villain in the movie a very enjoyable and charismatic cut up. I can go on, but suffice it to say the "acting" is top notch.



Animation wise all I have to say is this is Pixar. They are just about the best in the business and what you see in this movie will impress even today. The race scenes are dynamically shot the same way you would see a big NASCAR race with gravel, debris, smoke and skid marks looking real. The level of detail is very impressive from the waxed shine on the cars to the minute dust.



This Blu-Ray release is pretty much identical to the previous release, but this time they include the DVD version as well. The differences between the Blu-Ray and DVD versions visually are striking, and that's admitting the DVD looks great. The Blu-Ray technically has two menus, but that's not a big deal. One of the menus has three options which are the movie, bonus cartoons and featurettes. Here's a breakdown (features on the DVD will have an * beside them):







Mater and the Ghost Light*: Like all Pixar releases Cars comes with both the animated short that was viewed before the movie in theaters plus a totally new short related to the movie itself. This is a story about Mater scaring the town with little tricks so he is told a story about the infamous Ghost Light, which he then appears to experience after left alone. Goofy funny with Mater kind of replaying a number of scenes from the movie in a different way.



One Man Band*: This is the short that was played before the movie in theaters. It's about two street musicians "dueling" for a little girl's coin. The musicians get more outrageous in their zeal for the money and things end up going crazy.



Mater in Bounding: Remember the Pixar short with the Jackalope and sheep? Well this is a quickie (non hi-def) short of Mater replacing the sheep bouncing all over the place. I think it's something the animators put together for fun and are sharing with us.



End Credits: Here you can see the animation end credits in full frame without the credits. Love the previous Pixar movie references.



Production Features include:



Two Full Length Commentaries: One is by Lasseter and the other with the production team (with pictures).



Inspiration for 'Cars'*: Documentary told by John Lasseter on the inspiration for Cars including a jaunt through Route 66 and seeing some race cars in action.



Documentary Shorts: There are seven little items here. "Radiator Springs," "Character Design," "Animation and Acting," "Real World Racing: Getting Geeky with the Details," "Hudson Hornet," "Graphics" and "Darrell Waltrip Museum Tour". This is the real meat of the extras. You get to see the real love for the source material and how much they put into making the movie as much a car-lovers movie as possible.



Cine-Explore: This is a way to see behind the scenes stuff while watching the movie. You can set it automatic or manually punch in the content. Much of the content comes from the other featurettes.



Deleted Scenes*: These are just sketches and storyboards that never went beyond pre-production. It's interesting to see how the script evolved, but don't expect extra cartoons.



Carfinder Game: It's dubbed as a very sophisticated BD game, but I call it incredibly tedious. The has three play modes. The primary mode is where you have to select a car from the bottom of your screen when it shows up in the movie. Next is the same concept, but this time the screen is frozen for an amount of time due to a massive amount of cars to rummage through. Third is like a bonus round where you get three images of the same car and you have to pick which one is accurate (with the other two having often the slightest differences in them).



The reward for going through the game (which you cannot get out of until you finish the movie with it) is a Showroom that has all the cars you found. You can click on the showroom and get a pretty neat profile of that car and it's personal history. I have to admit I really like getting this information as it broadens the story greatly. It's just a bear of a game to go through. This isn't a casual game to kill a little time. Be prepared to commit.



Cars is one of those movies that is very different from anything else out there, but then again you can say that for a good number of Pixar movies. It's a great movie for the car lover and those who enjoy remembering the 1950's driving experience where drive-ins and cruising mainstreet were how you treat a Friday night. Oh yeah... car racing fans will definitely get a kick out this film. If you aren't into any of that then you still should give this movie a try. It's VERY accessible to just everybody out there. - Automotive - Animation - Lightning Mcqueen - Disney'

I bought this raft to use on the Charles River in Boston, simply a new fun thing to do on summers. It's worked out great, i've used it dozens of times. Other reviews claim the oars break easily, but i still have the originals and they work fine. Maybe a little small, but it's ok. The 3 person boat is more like a 2 person boat, or a super over crowded 3 person one. I've gone out with my husband and our 55 lb dog, and there's no room to turn around in there with the three of us. It inflates and deflates super quick with a pump, so you can bring it right to the water edge fill it up and go, and later deflate it and vacuum out the air so it stores very small. I've loved it and do recommend it. Sevylor Colossus 3-Person Inflatable Boat

My wife bought this raft - I inflated it. We bought a pump; it filled up in no time. Took myself, the better half, and our young offspring on a float down a little river in Maine. Oars worked fine, and it was as comfy as if I was floating on air. Above water. Literally. Oars can be unscrewed and split into 2 at the mid point, good for storage. To deflate it, my advice is get a pair of vice grips to pinch the nozzles and spare your fingers the arthritis.

Every year I buy a new inflatable boat for my son who is now almost 11. Looks like this one is a keeper and the way it looks right now, we won't need a new one for next year. We live on a saltwater canal on Long Island. This boat arrived quickly and I was surprised at how sturdy the boat is. Also I didn't realize that it also came with oars (I am sure it was in the description but since I already have oars I didn't notice). It inflated quickly by using a foot pump. I like how large the holes are for inflating/deflating making it more convenient that those tiny holes in other boats. It has been a few weeks now and we haven't had to reinflate it. I like that pad thing in the middle of the boat. Not sure of it's purpose, but we use it to sit on while rowing.We like to use kayak oars but that is what we are used to. I have inflatable pillows from our old boat that we use to prop ourselves up on to get a better angle for rowing, but you can sit on that middle thing and it works great! My next door neighbor bought the same boat for her twin 5 year olds to row up and down the canal too! I like totie a rope on and attach to our dock so they can't go too far away. Absolutely recommend! - Inflatable Boats - Inflatable Boat - Raft - Sevylor'

The movie was kind of funny. Some parts of it were enjoyable. Christina Milian was hot. Nothing else good to say unfortunately. The story of the movie sucked, and got boring after about twenty minutes. The acting was only so-so and there was nothing really special about the movie. If it wasn't for the fact that this movie tried to split itlself between a serious flick and another comedy it may have been better. But when you mix the stupidity of most comedies with some serious aspects you get a sub-par film like this one. Be Cool (Widescreen Edition)

I, having seen the movie Get Shorty and having loved it, was excited about this movie. That was until I saw the lame previews. The Rock didn't look funny nor did Vince vaughn but I decided to give it a shot. I was right. It was a major letdown with some good laughs but the movie seemed boring, stupid, and just weird at times. The Rock playing a gay bodyguard wasn't funny, Vince Vaughn acting black wasn't funny, and the rest of the cast wasn't that good either. The movie has an all star cast with over 10 actors I'm very familiar with. That's weird but cool. But, it just wasn't funny. The plot is about Chili Palmer who leaves the Movie business for the Music business. He then finds a good prospect in a young singer. The movie has some good laughs but mostly nothing. If you want to laugh, watch get shorty and not this. Believe me, it's not funny.

The problem with this film is I read the book. I was disappointed simply because `Be Cool' is an obvious showcase for the musical talent. The overly long dance sequence with John Travolta and Uma Thurman is a prime example. Somewhere the bulk of the story was lost--and there are some very--very good characters appearing in the film that would've been more intersing if somebody would've said, "HEY, don't forget the book!" But being true to the original source is not Hollywood's strong suit. "Be Cool" provides some popular music, some known faces, but without John Travolta, the movie would never have been made.



A few laughs are provided. A couple ironic scenes show up, but there's too little to sustain a full-length feature. Basically, the project is a disservice to everyone involved. Some of the characters are so thin--face it--poor Christina Milian as Linda Moon, is reduced to being a voice that sways when she sings--a cliché. The Rock does the best he can but again, `He's a gay bodyguard;' he's the brunt of insulting jokes offered up by a Raji, his boss [Vince Vaughn], who, in the book, is far more sinister--but in the film he's an idiot.



Of course Chili is Chili. Travolta does a very nice job, and Chili's obviously the smartest guy in the room. Uma Thruman's performance is, well, not funny--not serious, not intense--not much-- at best, she made me shrug. I do like what Harvey Keitel did with Nick Carr, but there's just not enough, and all the negatives reflect completely on the director. Enough said there.



My advice, watch `Get Shorty'again, or read `Be Cool.'

You can tell within the first two minutes that Be Cool isn't going to come close to living up to 1995's Get Shorty, which actually embodied the titular sentiment of this limp sequel. Director Gray and screenwriter Paul Steinfeld waste no time in winking at us, joking about how lame sequels are, and stupid compromises made to get a PG-13 rating. But instead of getting us to laugh, it only shows how desperate they are to please.



The plot has Travolta's hustler-turned-movie-producer Chili Palmer getting out of movies and into music when he discovers a talented young singer (Milian), teaming up with Edie (Thurman), a record executive's widow. Chili is beset by a colorful cast of lowlifes: Cedric the Entertainer and the Rock make the most of their roles, but Vince Vaughn is unbelievably grating as the white-guy-who-thinks-he's-black.



While Get Shorty had no trouble selling Chili's love of movies, his love of music comes across as contrived, designed only to pimp the acts (Aerosmith, Black Eyed Peas) who've been paid to show up. Memorable lines from Get Shorty are recycled ad nauseam, and Travolta and Thurman dance and try to re-create Pulp Fiction's magic. There are one or two funny lines and enough stars to guarantee everyone at least a moment of pleasure. But a moment is all you're likely to get.

i've never viewed a film in my life that had so much on screen talent with no place to go. the magic that these actors have been known to make is invisable in this morass. don't waste your time even when it shows up on HBO or late night viewing. - Action - John Travolta - Comic Criminals - Uma Thurman'

I bought this to replace a chrome shower caddy that had rusted with years of use. My bathroom is white, so I chose this one. While I like the size of this (it holds way more than my last one), it has some room for improvement. Bottles fall out of the large top opening VERY easily. I understand they put it there so you would have easy access to the items, but it's honestly more annoying than anything. The bottom part is even worse. Soap just falls through the bottom "soap shelf"- don't even think about putting less than a full bar in there. It doesn't hold a razor well at all. It won't hang from it, and resting it on the bottom rack is precarious- it falls CONSTANTLY into my tub.



That said, I like the clean white look and the bottle space. Even with the suction cup not working for me, it still stays up easily. Not bad, but I'd keep looking for another, better caddy if I had to do it over again. Shower Caddy (White) (22"H x 11 1/8"W x 5 1/2"D)

We were limited in the size of shower caddy we can buy because of a soap dish that gets in the way of where it hangs. This one is decent for the size. Wish it was just a tad wider, but we can fit our products snugly in it. - Bath Shower Caddy - Shower Storage - Oxo - Shower Organization'

We got this table as a gift for our son two years ago when he was three. It is a wonderful table!



I'm impressed with how strong and sturdy it is. I frequently sit at the table with my son while we work on projects and feel perfectly comfortable putting my full weight (I'm not a small person) onto the chair. As a matter of fact, we routinely use the chair as a "step-stool" to get things off of his high shelves. The chairs set firmly on the floor -- I can't remember anyone ever falling over in one. It gets used on a regular basis and I haven't noticed any scratches or scuffs. (We have the Pecan finish.) It is also quite attractive with a classic simple design. My son especially likes the little shelf area under the table-top where he stores his markers and drawing paper. I like that it blends nicely with our other Craftsman style furniture and does not look cheap. I put the table together by myself with no problems and two years later have never had to tighten any of the bolts.



I would agree with some of the reviewers that this table is more to scale for a primary-school age child and not so much for a toddler. But personally I like the size. Although his feet didn't touch the floor while sitting in the chair when he was three, my son was still able to get on and off the chairs by himself and we won't need to replace it later because it is too small. In my opinion, it is the perfect "in between" size to grow with my son.



One suggestion I do have is to purchase some of those felt pads for the bottom of the chair and table legs. We have hardwood floors and the chairs get skidded around quite a bit and scratched the floor before I was able to put pads on them. Lipper International 534C Child's Rectangular Table and 2-Chair Set, Cherry

This is a great table and chairs set. It is solid wood, sturdy, and nice looking. It is also a good height for my 6 year old and will last probably until she is ten or so. It is tall enough that I am comfortable sitting at it with her to play games. Putting it together was fairly easy as long as you have muscles, because you have to screw the bolts in really tight and it is tough! My husband did it. The chairs are really easy to put together.



I would have given it 5 stars but for three things:

1. The screws stand out because they are metal and are not hidden at all.

2. The cubbies are a strange size - they don't really fit standard paper, we'll use the cubbies for bins of crayons, markers, etc.

3. Mine came with a small scratch on the tabletop - not bad enough to send back, but annoying.





We were not planning on ordering the extra chairs, but we've changed our minds - they will actually fit side by side on the long side. You could have 6 chairs fit around this table if you needed it. This will also be nice to use during dinners with family and friends for the kids table. The cherry finish is really pretty - you won't regret buying it.

The table is too tall for a 3-4 year old. I had to get out my saw and cut the table legs. I had a chair seat with a broken piece. I used wood glue and clamped it overnight to fix it. The chairs are not level. They rock back and forth. This purchase was not worth the price.

All I can say about Lipper International's customer service is "WOW!". Right after I put the table and chair set together, I noticed a crack along on of the table edges. I called the company directly this morning to see if there were any options other than going thru Amazon's return process (didn't want to have to take it all apart and attempt to fit it back in the box). I asked the representative who answered my call if there was any way I could just get a replacement table top, and she immediately said yes, took my name/address/phone, and promised a replacement would be sent out quickly. No hassle, no questions, no verifications. What a pleasure to have such a good experience with a company!



And as for the product itself -- it's well-made, sturdy, and attractive. My 3 yr old daughter loves it. It only took me about 30 mins. to put together the table and four chairs (ordered an extra set of chairs). If you order the extra set of chairs, be aware that all of the chairs will fit around the table, but you will not be able to push the chairs all the way under the table. Not a big deal to me, but some people may not like that.

This is a great looking table. We wanted something in a cherry color and there were not many options. It was relatively easy to put together and it is of good quality. Our only complaint is that it was very tall for our 1 1/2 year old (who was off the charts in height). It is better for preschool age kids who are tall. If you want something for a toddler, I'd be inclined to get a shorter table.

I think children need a table that is their size for games, puzzles, and art activities. At our home we still use the maple table and chair set that was given to my son in 1972 whenever the grandchildren visit so I wasn't willing to pass it on. I ordered this table and chairs set for my four year old twin grandsons. The price was extremely reasonable (we had seen similar sets in stores for over $200) It arrived in a timely manner and was relatively easy to assemble with the hex key provided and our power screwdriver to put the long screws into the table legs. I am a 66 year old grandmother and had no difficulty understanding the directions or assembling the chairs which came in 8 pieces each. There were screws with hex tops and wooden pegs. We added a drop of glue to each end of each wooden peg to strengthen the bond. (These are active boys!) The finish is good but not great; there was a slightly rough place on the top that I was disappointed to find. Aside from that, we were quite satisfied and the boys were thrilled to death. The openings, which were criticized in several reviews that I read, seem adequate to store boxes of crayons and markers, coloring books and drawing paper. They ate their breakfast and lunch on the table that day and enjoyed putting puzzles together and playing a game later in the day. My son and his family are looking forward to many years of use from this set. - Children Table - Kids Furniture - Table - Childrens Furniture'

One star is all it gets and not worth one star even. I was very disappointed in this Altus step board. The board had no support for even a low impact step routine. I didn't try a high impact routine due to the center of board not being rigid enough and I was too scared to try. Don't be fooled with this step board with claims of being a gym quality board because it is not in the least. Be warned of this board, I saw couple of bad reviews but I over rode the reviews and thought they were being too critical but I regret I wasted my time with this purchase and returned it immediately. THIS IS NOT A GYM QUALITY STEP BOARD, its more like a gym board after several years of use.This board is indorsed by Cathe Fredrick & has her CD included. I am very surprised at this because I consider her a pioneer step instructor. I am not sure if Amazon sent me used one which I don't think they would do such a thing but either way, this board sucked. Altus Athletic Altus Cardio Club Step with 4-Risers

I've added a new toy to my collection. :)



This is the step manufactured for fitness instructor Cathe Friedrich. The positive is the step platform is very sturdy and does not bend in when I use it with or without risers. It does have the "Cathe" logo on the side of the platform. The negative is that when using this step on a hard floor without any risers, it will slide and move alot when exercising to a step DVD. I guess the 4 round rubber placements under the platform are not good quality. With a pair of risers added, it slighty moves during exercise. I am positive this step stays put on a carpeted floor. MY solution to the problem with the sliding/moving on the hard floor was that I simply took out my yoga mat and placed my step and risers on top. That stopped the slipping and moving of the step.



This step package is targeted towards intermediate or advanced exercisers since the colorful box it came in states that by the title on the box. However, this step is also for beginners after minusing the workout DVD that comes with this step. Beginners can test and judge their own fitness level by trying it on the platform alone(4 inch level) or by adding 1 pair of risers to make it at 6 inches, then 8 inches adding the last pair.



The DVD that comes with the step is called "Low Max." The DVD is considered to be advanced according to the "Collage Video" website. For beginners, the DVD's I would recommend are Cathe's "Basic Step & Body Fusion" OR "Low Impact Step + Total Body Sculpting."

10-minute Clips of all these DVD's can be seen on Cathe's website OR Youtube. As many know, Cathe has MANY exercise DVD's.



Oh, and the box says the maximum weight is 350 lbs., not 300 like the description on Amazon says today. Even Cathe's website says this step is for 350 lbs. maximum.

I wasn't sure if i should order this because of the bad reviews but i think its great. It sets up easily nothing to snap,screw,or install. You just choose your height and your set to go! I give it four stars and not five because obviously for the money its not going to be perfect, but it is close enough! I love using it and am glad i purchased it.

I love this stepper. The color is complimentary in my living room. It is long enough lay down like a weight bench. There has been a bit of bubbling with the rubber top. The DVD gave various options and I worked up a sweat. My only issue is that the routine on the DVD was somewhat intricate and you need sufficient space to follow them all.

My husband and I were looking for some aerobics equipment. We've got a small apartment and a young toddler, so we needed something compact without moving parts that could pinch small fingers. After looking at different steps, we chose this one.



As far as cons go, the biggest one is that the black foam isn't applied evenly. This isn't a huge deal by any means, but to the discerning eye, it is noticable. This also means that there's a few tiny little air pockets under there. I understand it's probably a bit difficult to evenly apply a large piece of thin foam, but when it's done wrong, it does make for a minor cosmetic issue.



Another con is the DVD. Watching it gives some good ideas for different steps to try, but following allong, especially at the beginner level, is difficult, just because they go fast without a ton of explanation. The music also reminds me of cheesy 80's workout videos. I'm not into routines and am more interested in just stepping, so I nixed the DVD, found some videos of different techniques on YouTube, and just step to some of my favorite songs instead. So if you could take or leave the DVD, I would say this is a minor con. If you are really interested in having a DVD, Cathe Friedrich does have some videos on YouTube that will allow you to check out her style before buying. It's great for some, but probably not everyone's style.



Another small con -- I use it on carpet, so though I do feel stable, it doesn't always feel 100% solid as if I were using it one a harder surface. No biggie, I still feel safe, and it doesn't wobble or anything like that. This might bug some people, though, so I thought I'd throw it out there.



Now for the pros -- it is very fun, as well as easy to put together. It is also a great size for my needs -- enough stepping surface to try a variety of steps, but it doesn't feel like it clutters my small living room. I also like the color. Though I don't have a ton of grey and black in my apartment, it doesn't clash with my decor quite like the teal and purple ones would. It's also rated fo higher weights than some of the others, so if that's a concern, this one is likely a good choice.



Also, when I'm not using it, my young daughter loves to use it to stack her blocks, line up her stuffed animals, roll toy cars across, crawl on, or do whetever. She thinks it's her special table. Though I know this is not a toy, it is nice knowing that it is safe to have with little ones around.'

When I opened these desk sets, I was pleasantly surprised! They were packed well and beautiful. As I unwrapped them, some of the pieces started to fall apart, one after another!! It really shocked me because, for the most part, they were pretty high quality. My guy had some really good glue, so started to rebuild the broken ones. I am now using all the pieces on my two desks. I will be tossing out the desk pad though. It is cheaply made and curls up on the edges. Majestic Goods Nine Piece Burgundy Oak Wood Desk Set

You know the old adage about getting what you pay for? Well this proves it. It really does have a very nice appearance and I have received many compliments on many of the pieces.



As many others have reported, the letter tray was broken. Apparently it was caused by either poor packaging, poor glue, or both. No problem fixing it with a little gorilla glue and a couple of clamps, but annoying none the less. The other issue is with the desk pad. It began to curl on the edges within a week. I'm just going to find a replacement and throw this one away.



Even with the problems, it is still a nice looking and functional desk set for a really good price. Just order a bottle of glue at the same time you order this.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend, who recent'y has a new office and needed desk supplies. The product looks great, but a few pieces fell apart in shipping and I had to glue them back together. Of course, unless you're a professional, you can never glue it back perfectly, but it took so long to ship, and was so close to Christmas that I didn't want to send it back.

3 items came apart at the corners straight out of the box. We had to buy wood glue and clamps to put them back together. One of the pieces splintered and wouldn't glue back together correctly. I bought this as a gift for my husband for getting a promotion that came with his own office. When he opened the box the trays literally started falling apart. I was so embarrassed and could do nothing, but apologize over and over again. He told me that he could fix it and not to worry. I was a little more disappointed than he was because this was a gift, and I was very proud of him for the big promotion.

I have just received the second shipment of this item since the first shipment contained several damaged pieces. The second shipment was almost no better. Very poor quality. Broken and scratched pieces. Very disappointed.

The desk sets were beautiful and look better than in the photo. I was somewhat disappointed in the way the product was packaged for shipment because some of the sets were cracked/broken. However, once the problem was fixed we received the rest of our order.'

Ihome Clock Radio - ihome clock radio, ipod dock

Visit Store Now !!

I have searched hard to find the "perfect" iPod alarm clock. For me, the iHome iP9 comes closer than anything else I found, but it does have some very annoying flaws.



In my opinion, the best features are:



* The alarm can be set to wake to a random song on an "iHome" playlist on your iPod. Only Sanyo seems to have a product with a similar feature, but I think theirs looks REALLY ugly.



* The backlight dimmer has 7 levels of brightness and can even be turned off.



* You can adjust the snooze time from 1 to 29 minutes in 1-minute increments.



* The alarm volume (for radio and iPod) gradually increases for "gentle" waking.



* The sound quality is quite good for such a small unit.



The things that annoy me about the unit are:



* The alarm set buttons are located directly behind the snooze bar, and hitting one of these buttons resets the alarm when the alarm is sounding. While the snooze bar is very big and has a bump that you can feel with your fingers, I fear that I will accidentally turn off my alarm one morning when just trying to snooze for a few more minutes.



* There is a beep when setting the alarm. While this offers audio confirmation of your alarm setting actions, it can be annoying if you are trying to set the alarm when your significant other is sleeping.



* The dial controls are cool in theory/aesthetic but are not so great in practice. It can be more time-consuming to use these to set the alarm time and other settings when compared to conventional buttons and a system where one sets the hour and minute independently. Also, the dials are mechanical (unlike an iPod) and lack an indent or other means for providing traction. So, your finger can slip, making them not so easy to turn. For this, I found a simple work-around: I stuck on each dial a small, round, self-adhesive, clear plastic bumper (something you can find in any hardware store). This makes it much easier to turn the dials, but it does not get around the fact that dials are not always the best interface.



* Personally, I find only the dimmest and off settings for the backlight to be of any use. Perhaps, the other backlight settings would be needed if the unit is placed in direct sunlight. However, I find them too bright, and it is very slightly annoying that I need to press the dimmer button to cycle through the 6 other "on" settings each time I turn the backlight off. While definitely better than some competing units whose backlight is always way too bright (e.g. the Sony ICF-CD3iP), even the dimmest setting can be rather bright in a totally dark room.



For me, the positive outweighs the negative when evaluating this unit as an iPod alarm clock. While not my primary usage (and paling in comparison to a dedicated home stereo), I found the sound on this unit to be surprisingly good when using the unit as an iPod speaker system for casual listening in a small room. iHome iP9 Speaker Dock with Clock Radio for iPod and iPhone (Black)

I had been reading about the IP99 for months but was unwilling to pay well over $120 for it. When I happened across the new IP9 for $79.99 in a local warehouse that starts with "Cost" and ends with "co", I thought I would give it a try.



The sound is slightly improved over my older IH5 and IH6 radios -- which is to say excellent for the money -- and so far I haven't heard the slightest GSM buzz. The iP9's 3D effect is richer than the Sony ICF-C1iPMK2's "Mega Xpand" feature. The overall sound of the iP9 is slightly warmer than that of the Sony but otherwise comparable. The Eq option is a big plus.



The one advantage the Sony has is that it supports an iPhone from the back via and adustable block. That somewhat negates the need for a dock insert. This is a nice convenience for people with an iPhone shell that is small enough to fit in a universal dock as you may not have to remove the shell to dock the iPhone securely. You NEED an insert on the iP9 as you would on any device with a universal dock on top and nothing substantial behind the dock. Fortunately, the iPhone insert iHome includes seems to work as well as an iPhone 3G Universal Dock Insert from Apple... and it's black! The iHome website currently states that the IP9 does not ship with an iPhone 3G insert but perhaps iHome wised-up.



The dual alarms work in a similar manner to the Sony. The 2-5-7 day setting is a plus. I have not used the snooze feature though it is supposed to be configurable. Our dogs do not allow us to snooze, in case you were wondering. At night, one big advantage for the iP9 is that the dimmer allows you to turn off the backlighting entirely. As anyone with a Sony will tell you, their dimmest setting is way too bright. The iHome's numbers are also a little larger.



I have read about some quality problems with the IP99 and am hoping that the IP9 is as solid as the IH5 and IH6 clocks I have had for a few years without any problems. The iP9 seems to be built more solidly than the Sony, particularly with respect the buttons. The dials take a little getting used to, but if you're tying to adjust the volume in a dark room they are much easier to adjust than the tiny Sony volume buttons, which have an annoyingly loud click. I also give the iP9's remote an edge because it includes a few more functions.



In summary, the iHome iP9 is a solid performer with an excellent attention to detail that puts it ahead of the Sony ICF-C1iPMK2, despite its more iPhone shell-friendly design.

First of all, THIS IS THE ONE TO BUY IF YOU HAVE AN iPHONE, because the other model just doesn't have sufficient shielding to work with the iPhone. You will have constant buzzing and interference due to the iPhone constantly polling.



Now to the review. The product comes nicely packaged and protected, and with good instructions. Set up is simple, even setting the time, which is just a selection of a time zone if needed. Mine came perfectly timed (it has a battery backup for it's internal clock) and so I just selected my time zone and I was done. Most of the setting are intuitive, except perhaps turning off the alarms if you don't want them to ring the next day... But, read the instructions (I had to finally turn to them as I couldn't work it out... and you know, turning to instructions is the last thing any man wants to do!:-)))))



In function the unit deliver acceptable sound for what is basically a clock radio. And being able to access all your favorite music on the iPod or iPhone, with a remote control no less, is great. Even the alarm works well, with a gradually increasing volume (and irritation... exactly what is required to pierce my slumbering brain...). And being able to wake to radio, MP3, or buzzer is great. The dual alarms can be set for 5 or 7 day setting, so that if you don't have to get up quite so early on the weekend, you can...



FM & AM reception are acceptable, and the tuner has pretty good lock and definition (stays on station, and doesn't pick up much "bleed through" of stations that are close to each other on the dial...). Finding a place to hang/hide the antenna cables can be challenging...



Answering the phone while in the cradle works fine, but isn't the greatest sound.



So, great sound, great time keeping, great access to favorite tunes, great that it charges the phone whilst in the cradle, and it looks good too. So why do I say "almost" does everything? Well, the one think I would change would be to fit a small light sensor, and have it maintain one illumination setting for day and one for night (illumination level of my choice of course). It does have plenty of graduations of light intensity, but it seems I am forever adjusting the illumination, from the bright setting for day, and one of the night... Setting them once as a preference and having it automatically set to that selection as needed would be wonderful...



Anyway, it's a nice solution to keeping your iPhone by the bed, and charging it without cables everywhere. And it does it all whilst looking good, and performing other tasks... Pretty good value if you ask me...

Weighted Gloves - exercise, gloves

I bought these weighted gloves for a class that I take at my gym called Stike! It is a combo kickboxing cardio class that uses the gloves and a 6 lb. bar. Each week I would go and find that the gloves there were still wet with sweat from the previous class 3 days before. I found these gloves and took the chance that they would feel the same in the class as the ones the gym provided. The order came so fast that I was able to use them this Sunday and they are great. They are made with a pliable fabric that allows them to fit well on your hands and wrists and to be adjusted to size. Additionally, they didn't slip or move during the boxing actions. I also use them when I run to add weight and intensity to my motions, I even jab while I walk to keep my heart rate up. The cost of the gloves was very appealing as well, a small investment to keep me on track with my weight loss and training. These are also better then traditional wrist weights in that they distribute the weight across the back of your hand, not just on your wrist. Shipping was a little bit high, considering they came from a sub-vendor, but they were delivered quickly and are well worth the cost. j/fit Weighted Cardio Gloves (1lb Each)

I purchased these gloves on Oct 5, 2009. I am a 6 ft tall and a woman. It is hard to find weighted workout gloves that are not too tight on my hands. I was previously using the beachbody gloves for my turbo jam workouts and p90x kenpo. I like these gloves because they are a full pound each, they are quite comfortable on my hands. I think a man should be able to comfortably wear these where a petite woman might find them too loose. I am less than pleased with the fact that after two months the stitching on one of the gloves is coming apart.

I bought these gloves about a year ago to do my Turbo Jam workouts. I have about average size hands for a woman (size 7.5 glove)but they ripped around the thumb and between the fingers after the first few months. During my workouts I can hear the filling hitting the floor. I repaired them once, but they tore again and I need to replace them. Other styles have reinforcements around the thumb hole which I'm hoping will add to the longevity. Spend a few more bucks and buy a better pair.

I used these gloves for the first time in a no-contact kickboxing class. The gloves ripped/frayed right by the thumb hole. Don't let the cheap price for these gloves lure you in - their quality is equally cheap!

I use these for the P90X Kenpo workouts and they are excellent. I am a big guy at 6' 4" and 215 pounds so they add a fair level of added resistance to the Kenpo workout without making me feel like I need to remove them in order to complete the workout. They have made a great workout even better.

Fit just fine but once i started throwing punches the gloves moved side to side; did not fit snugly enough. And after an hour of workout, the gloves were totally soaked with sweat. And the bands around the fingers do not feel comfortable due to the glove sliding back and forth during the workout.

There were no other 1-lb. workout gloves on this site that came up at the time I did a search for women's gloves (at least none around $20 or less), so I didn't really have much of a choice, unless I wanted to spend much more (I see now that there's one from Gill Athletics for $23, but there's not much info in the description, including size). Most of the gloves in my search results didn't specify if they were for women (ie: came in smaller sizes), or they came with other equipment or a DVD I didn't want. The description of this product said "One size fits most," which I found out really means women's med-large. If you have small hands, these gloves will be a bit loose. If the velcro at the wrists were only an inch longer, I'd be able to tighten them for a more comfortable fit. I can still use them though, and the fit is my only concern so far.

Item arrived quickly and came exactly as pictured however I was disappointed in the fit. Meaning it did not fit well for those w/small hands/wrists even with the velcro closure. It kept slipping down and I had to use my fingers to hold the gloves back which is a bit cumbersome while doing turbokick moves. - Exercise - Cardio - Gloves - P90x'
