nice computer, bad screen, weak battery
I really like this computer, except for the screen, like the other guy said, it is awsome in performance, but the screen is not so good. seems to dim and brighten randomly. contrast is terrible. and the battery does not last long at all, youre lucky to get 2 hours out of it.

Off Topic: whats the deal with the windows live messenger just popping up whenever it wants? it does come preinstalled on this computer, and it will drive you nuts. I finally had to just uninstall it.

Fast, but screen leaves something to be desired
Bought this for my wife, who needed a laptop for portability. She plays a lot of games, particularly WoW and casual games, so I wanted something with a dedicated graphics card and a strong processor. Having an i7 CPU and 6 GB of RAM, the laptop offers plenty of performance headroom, no problems there.

PROS: Fast CPU, lots of RAM, hard drive big & fast, nice keyboard with automatic backlighting, decent build quality.

CONS: LCD far too milky with poor contrast. Simply a par screen, suitable for a laptop at the lower end of the spectrum, not at the near-premium level. Merely adequate, which is surprising for Sony.

poor shipping
I ordered staples the packaging was poor. The staples were out of there boxes.
some were broke. this is not the first time this happened. The only reason i
ordered them again was the price waas unbeatable and i needed them fastB & C Eagle 97/25 1-Inch 20 Gauge 3/16-Inch Crown Staple for S3297-LHF (5,000 per Box)

no packaging research
The little box of staples was inserted in a bigger box for shipping and after miles of travel the little opened scattering 5000 staples throughout the bigger box making them useless. The most frustrating was the attempt at contacting the shipping to get them resent. After wasting an hour I gave up.

Terrible shipping
The box the staples were in was very flimsy and all the staples fell out. They were loose in the delivery box and all broken up. So many of them will not fit into the gun properly, therefore a waste. I cannot believe Amazon does not do an easy correction to this problem by just wrapping the box with some packaging tape.

NOT WORTH THE SAVINGS
I bought three boxes of these staples thinking it would be a great savings.
After spending half my time pulling out staples that crushed instead on going in the flooring I have decided they are not worth the savings.
These China made staples are undersized to begin with and will not penetrate hard wood flooring like the stanley bostich staples. I will never make the mistake of buying cheap off brand staples again.
I would advise anyone considering purchasing the staples to go back and buy the bostich.

Still haven't learned
Amazon has ignored all these reviews and still poorly package these staples. The staples are in a flimsy cardboard box that was thrown in a padded envelope. The box totally disintegrated and the staples broke apart. If you have time to mess with them, than this is a great deal.

Works great!
I bought this item without too much checking around. In comparison with iRobot's battery, it is a significant savings. I put in into a 510 model and it works immediately. I did not even have to charge it (it is kind of pre-charged). I ran the 510 for about 45 minutes and the light turned to orange, indicating maybe 50% power left in the battery.

It took longer to charge it up fully, when compared to the original iRobot battery when it was new(maybe it is due to the fact that this was the first time I charged the batter.) It seems to last longer than the original battery, maybe that is why it takes longer to charge.

The replacement was easy, four small phillip screws, and battery comes out easily. It took me about 10 minutes to change the battery. (But it took a long longer to clean up the 510.)

Highly recommended.

Fantastic
Great battery for the money. Works better and lasts longer than my original Roomba battery ever did. I even ran my old Roomba that I had purchased this battery for against a newly purchased Roomba with a factory battery. My old Roomba with this replacement battery ran 3x longer than the brand new one!

iRobot battery
My iRobot (Roby) would only clean for a few minutes and then need recharging so I ordered a new iRobot R3 500 series APS battery. I had hesitated for quite awhile because I was leary of ordering a battery online. Who knew if it would actually fit or even improve performance if it did fit. I should not have hesitated, because once the battery came and was charged, Roby now performs as well as he did when he was new. The battery took about 5 days longer to arrive than the vendor said (I think because they sent it by USPS rather than UPS)but it fit and it works. Both Roby and I are happy and running at full speed.

Not iRobot battery; doesn't work.
The battery UltraSonic sent was clearly not an iRobot battery. It worked for a day and then refused to charge, even after troubleshooting. This is a perfect example of "you get what you pay for" - I'll be returning this and shelling out the full amount for a REAL iRobot battery.

The battery's in good condition and works very well with my iRobot.
I am living in Singapore. Initially I'm worried about the battery doesn't fit my iRobot and it will be very troublesome to return the goods. However, the battery arrived in good condition and works very well with my iRobot. Thank you so much for the respective Seller and Amazon.

Yellow Aruba Hammock
Very disappointed with this hammock....it was skimpy and did not have any hanging material. I want my money back. How am I supposed to return it if I have to pay for shipping. Its a ripoff

Loved it!
Me and my husband purchased this hammock as a Christmas present for his parents, and apparently everyone was happy with the purchase. The colors were bright and actually nicer looking than the picture online. The product seems to be of good quality at a good price. It's definitely a good value item and we recommend it. Just one thing in the picture (could be deceiving), the pillow shown is not included.

Hammock for One
Bought this hammock for my husband for X-Mas and found out why it is so cheap. He is the only one that fits in it (185 lbs). So if you think you are getting a bargain for 2, don't bother.

great hammock, good price!
The hammock is perfect for 1 person to fit comfortably. This is the second hammock I've bought (same kind) and the first is still in great shape (a blue one). I would definitely recommend this hammock for the price!

Love it
This is the second purchase I have made of this hammock. Earlier in the summer, I purchased the blue to hang outside, and now I bought the yellow which compliments my newly recovered patio furniture. It is comfortable and looks great.

Air filter
It's a good investment if you suffer from allergies. It cleans the air well and is not to noisy.

Honeywell 50250 Pure HEPA Round Air Purifier
The Honeywell 50250 did a more than satisfactory job of cleaning air in our downstairs apartment of cigarette smoke and residues. We are very satisfied.

Strong, Low Maintenance Costs, Loud
We have a couple dogs, one who sheds 365 days a year, and a bunch of rescued cats.

These things do a pretty good job, it's amazing how much dust and fur is on the pre-filter when I change it. This thing really pumps the air. The pre-filters are relatively inexpensive.

The trade-off is noise, even on Low. It actually provides nice white noise for sleeping, and is good for times when you are not home, but when you are home and awake, trying to have a conversation, or watch TV, this filter is too loud. Would be nice if it had an "Ultra Low" setting.

It works
Have had this for about six months. It definitely works. How do I know this? Because since I have used it I have not needed to reguarly purchase kleenex boxes for the first time in probably a decade. I have serious allergies and typically go through a kleenex box in a week or two due to dust, etc. Now I only get kleenex when I have a cold. The only reason I game it four starts is because it's loud but its worth it...

VERY PLEASED WITH HONEYWELL 50250 AIR PURIFIER
After much research, including using Consumer Report recommendations, the air purifier with
the best reviews was the Honeywell 50250. I have used the purifier for almost 3 months, it
was very easy to set up from the box, the filter is the type that you clean and re-use, and
has a charcoal pre-filter! My wife and I both love it! The dust in our house has been reduced
drastically! We do not have allergies so I cannot say it has reduced the allergins but the
house does smell very fresh. I am VERY pleased with the unit and would recommend it to anyone
looking for a unit that works well and does not cost an arm and a leg to operate and maintain.

My Son LOVES his MX500
This is by far the best product that I have purchased in years. It is made very well and my son enjoys it every day.

Awesome
Great bike. Well put together. Battery seems strong. Definitely fast. However, I bought it for my 6yo. It's a little too big for him. He can ride it real slow now, but I should have bought the next size down. My 11yo loves it. It will just be a year or two before the 6yo can get full enjoyment from the bike.

Great bike!
We purchased two of these for our boys ages 9 1/2 and 8. Assembly was not difficult - my husband left them in the internal packing to install the front wheel and handle bar so that the bike was stable and in an upright position. They are very well made and have some weight to them - definitely NOT cheap construction! The boys LOVE their bikes - they ride them every day. I would highly recommend this as a transition between bicycles/electric scooters and gas powered bikes/4-wheelers.

Just a quick thought for any parent concerned about the inevitable crashes: Both of our boys crashed within the first week; one was a moving collision with the Razor go-cart, and the injuries were no worse than with bicycles - road rash on knees and elbows (and NO injuries to our child on the go-cart). Minor scratches and a bent foot peg were the only damages on the bike. They ALWAYS wear helmets while riding - no exceptions.

Awesome Christmas Gift!
We purchased the MX500 last Christmas for our 7 year old son and it was a hit! 1 year later, still runs like new with the exception of the rear wheel which we recently replaced due to a cracked axle. Not an unreasonable repair considering how hard my son is on the bike,the rear wheel assembly is inexpensive and easy to swap out! If your considering the MX 500 for your son or daughter this Christmas do it, the bike will not dissapoint! Caution, all the neighbor kids will want to ride it too....

Good Bike. Should have bought the mx650 for 50 more
Delivered in two days for the best price on the internet. Cant beat Amazon. Took about 30 minutes to finish assembly. Its mostly put together - just handlebars front wheel and a number plate. Goes for a long time on a charge. My 10 year old is having a blast on it in our very large backyard. So far its been durable after a few weeks of beatings...

The one thing i would say is that it could use a little more oomph off the line. I didnt realize the mx650 is the exact same size but with 30 percent more power for 50 bucks extra. they market it to 16 year olds. A 10 year old is just fine IMO. I think a 16 year old would want a bigger gas powered bike IMO.

B&D Firestorm Battery
This battery was exactly what I needed. I looked around the i-net and found Amazon had the best price.

Review
The battery seems to be as good as it gets today. Battery technology needs improving. The battery last about one year. That seems adequate.

NOT LABELED FIRE STORM AS SHOWN
I AM NOT SURE IF I RECEIVED THE FIRE STORM OR NOT. I CERTAINLY ORDERED THAT BRAND NAME. I RETAINED THE CARD THAT WAS ATTACHED TO THE BATTERIES....THEY HAVE A DESIGNATION OF HPB18. THERE ARE NO WORDS NOR DESIGNATIONS OF FIRE STORM ON THE BRAND VARIETY PACKING SLIP. THUS I WANT TO KNOW JUST EXACTLY WHAT I RECEIVED????

HERB WELDON,

Cannot be charged
There is no problem with shipping. However, the battery itself simply cannot be charged. and it is too much trouble to return as it came in with the plastic wrap. Too bad!

FireStorm 18 Volt NiCad Battery
Received the replacement battery for my 18 Volt B&D drill. Seems to charge fast and has plenty of power.

All Around vac bags
These work great in my Shop Vac All Around vacuum. I have not had any of the bags tear and they hold the dust in pretty well.

Good bags
They're vacuum bags. I can't say I've found a vacuum bag that is really bad or anything, but I suppose if it didn't fit nicely in the vacuum or something, maybe I'd rate it lower. These fit nicely in the vacuum models that are made to use them.

They could possibly be a little bigger since, without a bag, the vacuum actually has quite a lot more space in which it could store stuff you're sucking up. I don't think I'll count that against the bag, though. The bag makes it nice and easy to clean, though, so it's preferable to use the bag.

Note that if you suck up anything damp in these you'll want to throw them out rather than let them sit in the closet. We cleaned out our dryer and there was a bit of slightly damp lint we sucked up. Stuck the Shop Vac in the closet and a couple months later it was sort of a moldy nightmare. Not a fault of the bags, just an FYI for users. They're unlined paper bags, so on damp materials your mileage may vary.

Did some on-line comparison shopping and best value
What's to say: we have the vac, need bags and want the best value (since we use a lot of them). Here they are, so we bought 6 packs this time and will be back for more.

Vac bags
Great cost effective deal and the bags I need to clean my pellet stove in the winter.

shop vac bags
Theses are just what I need. I use the small shop vac to clean my pellet stove and I have to have the bags due to the fine ash. These work perfect.
