Question: Pretty good adventure novel set in pre-revolutionary war America

The Language of the Bear is a pretty good adventure novel set in pre-revolutionary war America. Lieutenant Hugh Pyke, newly arrived in the colonies is sent on an assassination mission together with a young susquehannock warrior, Wolf Tongue that is supposed to be his guide. While traveling to accomplish their mission, they meet european colonists and various native-american tribes such as the Lenape (the Delaware) who naturally think highly of William Penn (the novel is set during his son, Thomas Penn's lifetime) but not so highly of the colonists they have to deal with now. The colonists are not portrayed in a favorable light by the authors across the book but maybe this will change in future books. Most seem disillusioned with the british crown and have an individualistic attitude where they mostly fend for themselves.

There is no great moral conflict across the book. The villain, Azariah Bennett (although a charismatic and persuasive man) is ruthless. He has been wronged in the past and he would stop at nothing from claiming what he sees as his rightful inheritance and place. What drives the book is the interaction (that evolves into a friendship) between the two main characters: Wolf Tongue and Hugh Pyke. Hugh Pyke has some scruples about assassinating Azariah at first but they go away after seeing the man in action.

I am looking forward to reading the future books in the series to see how the story shapes up. The authors gave us a glimpse of the tensions that are brewing between the French, English, and the different native-american nations. There's also a glimpse of that colonel from Virginia, Washington given by the alcoholic surgeon and I am curious if he will find his way into the story. Thomas Penn is also briefly mentioned in the book. The authors hint that he will have a greater role across the book series as Thornwood (the man Hugh Pyke duels at the beginning of the book) is his man.

I ordered these speakers and was shocked when I received them because the box was huge.  A few complaints; the bass is huge, over a foot long and wide and deep and heavy.  When I received my speakers I was disappointed because one of them was 'tweeting' already on the first day.  This problem was resolved however because Amazon sent another set to me and I picked out the good speaker to replace the bad one at no charge.  Amazon has good costumer service which makes these situations good, but I recommend testing your equipment thoroughly before you get too long into using it, you can be sure to receive good equipment eventually.  The bass sound does take some time to get used to, it is a little overpowering at first (especially if you are used to small desktop speakers) but I do appreciate the sound quality, especially with movies, it is very close to surround sound and the bass helps you experience the movie even more.  So in the end, these speakers worked out well for me and I am glad I bought them.

Question: Pretty,, cheap in price

Pretty,, cheap in price, but seem ok to wear and not be "tacky"... Have yet to wear, in fact, I forgot about them.. thanks... Pattie

I hate to admit that I bought this phone system.

I bought it because the features looked great.  An expandable system with one base unit.

But I was really bummed when I got it home.

You can't hear anyone when they call, and I am not so sure they can hear you.  I had it turned up all the way and I was constantly asking people to repeat themselves.

The answering machine is unusable, you can understand about 10% of what is said on a good day.

The earpiece is very uncomfortable and as someone mentioned the menu to use your stored numbers is very clunky.

I almost lost the packaging for these phones and was quite upset that I would have paid that much money for something that was worthless.

It's too bad one star is as low as the scale goes.

I would definitely not recommend this equipment.

I hope Motorola's cell phones are better than this one.

Question: ... on any products unless it really needs it for good or bad

I am not one to write a review on any products unless it really needs it for good or bad. Unfortunately this review was just bad. This is the second one I have purchased and the first one I thought it was just a flaw. After the second purchased it lasted 2 months and the fan crapped out. I do not know if this is a defect but I thought I advise the consumers about the issues I faced with the Smoking Gun.

This rear derailleur is awesome, I was tempted to buy this from Amazon but bought it from a local bike store instead. while it would've been cheaper to buy online to me it was worth the extra money to spend in store. Not only is this an awesome replacement just the quality of it is amazing! I have never been so happy. I love the shorter cage and love the mechanisms. My only wish is they would make the cogs metal not plastic, They look awesome but plastic really? Well I guess I suppose metal on metal wouldn't sound that great, but still.

Question: Well-written, insightful, informative, and thought-provoking

After reading John Farrell's recent book on Richard Nixon which was terrific, I decided to read his book on Tip O'Neill.  This book was equally as well-written, insightful, informative, and thought-provoking.  Not only is this book a look at one of the most colorful political figures during my lifetime, but it also proved to be a history of the Democratic Party since the New Deal.  Although Tip O'Neill is best remembered for stressing that politics is local, he had instincts to make amazing transformations during his years in national public service in order to survive in Washington DC while in Congress.  I highly recommend this book, especially to anyone interested in politics.

Independent of the truth of anything in this book, have confidence that it's polished and fascinating.

Ghaemi asserts that "mental health ...does not ensure good leadership; in fact, it often entails the reverse."  He's not the first to believe this.  He quotes Martin Luther King saying "Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted."

Those who read this book with an open mind will find it brings remarkable insights, mixed with a hefty dose of facile and convenient conclusory arguments.  His footnotes support but don't rigorously prove his ideas.  The whole point, though, is not that he can be proved right or wrong but that the rest of us can usefully be provoked to think.

I spent some significant time in the 1990s examining voice synthesis and the question of using voice tone to express personality.  Ghaemi's writing evokes deep empathy from me for the time in the trenches it takes develop his ideas.  Many readers may take a while to get used to Ghaemi's discussions of hyperthymic, dysthymic and cyclothymic personalities.  But some will grasp quickly enough the idea that some people are often hyper, others are often sullen and some switch back and forth.  Ghaemi pushes this to infer we're looking at people who are not quite maniacs, depressed, or bipolar, and that these wild traits make the best leaders in stressful times.

Anyone with an open mind will find A First Rate Madness maddeningly stimulating.  I don't see people's personalty traits as rigid straightjackets, so "in my heart I know" Ghaemi pushes his concept too hard.  He too, understands this with excellent insights, explaining that "Mental illness isn't like being pregnant - you are or you aren't - it's more like hypertension ...gradations of abnormality".  And "there is something of this 'other' in all of us."

It's impossible to read this book and agree with everything in it.  It's hard to read this book and not be persuaded with the plausibility of most of it.  "A First Rate Madness" makes a first-rate discussion book that will make strong opinions fly.

Question: Got it for a one time use at a color ...

Got it for a one time use at a color run. it served its purpose well and was discarded after the race.

I've had mine about 2 months now and love the Chromebook experience. I watch video on Netflix and other sites, write e-mails, and check FaceBook etc. For those purposes, it can't be beat. If I run out of time in the middle of a movie or tv program I'm watching on line, I simply shut the lid, and hours later when I open it back up, it's right where I left it. My old Toshiba laptop crashed when it ran out of juice while I was using it, so Windows couldn't shut down properly!  I'll be perfectly happy if I never have to deal with Windows again. I don't need 10,11, or 12 tabs open like some apparently do. The screen is better than the one on my TV, and the sound is also far better than my old laptop. I agree that it can be somewhat sluggish, but for 95 per cent of the time, I have no problem. Definitely worth the money

I am a prismacolor fan, and they are my favorite brand of artist quality pencils. The wax core allows for many layers and mixing of the colors by using burnishing. The white and some of the lighter colors do break easily, so carefully sharpen these so as to not break their soft core. Also, do not put these in them microwave to melt the core back as others recommend, there is foil in the labels and they will spark!

Question: Is the company out of business?

What is the problem with this business? I like the system and need filter replacements. But both the system and filters are not available through Amazon. When I tried to order them through the company website, the website crashed after I submit my order. I emailed the company and the email bounced! I can't find any information online about the company. Very sad, because the system keeps the smell down better than any other litter box system that we have tried.

Definitely not as funny as the first one. Kind of painful to watch.

Question: Wouldn't recommend, but it's not the worst

White and gold, a queen must have her knights, nipple colors of every color, clothing descriptions that read like a BabySitters' Club book... yeah, I'd hate to see this acted out on screen. .::Shudders::.

I first read these novels as a teenager and thought they were thrilling.  Then I read them again as an adult and found it less titillating than I recalled.  I'm not impressed with this series, but it's a good bookshelf filler, and it does help pass the time waiting in the doctors office.

A good book on the horrifying story of Japanese atrocities in China in which they experimented with live subjects on chemical/biological warfare weapons.  How the head of Unit 731 escaped punishment because of the U.S. desire for his information is discussed..

True to her writing style, Nora Roberts takes you into each character in depth, as well as into their relationships and ties with related characters.  I love her novelas and trilogies because all of the characters are so richly described and all connected.

Question: Go to HSN...don't pay these outrageous prices!

HSN sells them...$15 for 40 quart size and $15 for 30 gallon size. You have to pay $5 S&H but sure beats this $45 for 9 bags! Can't believe these product version of scalpers!

Bought this game for a "staycation" with my hubby, and it was a much bigger success than I expected!  It was actually suggested as a date night idea in Laura Corn's book, 101 Nights of Grreat Romance.

When it arrived, I was a little worried that it would be too cheesy because the cover of the game looks like something from an 80s soap opera.  That said, the game was hilarious and fun.  The game board is very simple.  There are four types of cards.  You start by writing down a secret wish, and then roll the dice and pick a card each time you move.  The "winner" gets their wish granted!

The cards seem to be four different types of activities: (1) telling your partner what you like about them (2) telling your partner a particular fantasy or wish you have (3) touching your partner in a non-sexual, affectionate way (like a neck massage) and (4) more romantic/direct contact.

PROS:
+ We liked the cheesiness of the game, as there were moments where we were trying to figure out what the card was asking us to do and could not stop laughing. Examples include staring sensually into your partner's eyes or asking your partner to close their eyes, so that they can smell a romantic smell.

+ Some of the suggestions were really sweet and I enjoyed them more than I thought (such as slow-dancing in the living room).

+ The game took about an hour or so and provided a great way to have a conversation and spend some quality time with my hubby.

+ My hubby actually had a ton of fun with the game too!

CONS:
- As the game is not very complicated, it's mostly a conversation tool rather than a "game."  There's no real strategy to it and you could probably get the same effect by shuffling the cards and picking from there. --> That said, the added structure of the gameboard and pieces does make playing the game feel more like an "event" or "date."

NEUTRAL:
* Unlike other games offered by the manufacturer, this is a game that you can only play with two people.  There are only two game pieces and some of the questions would be awkward with others!

Works great !! I like it because it has a 4 inch pipe not like the others that have the 3.5 pipes. Can't beat the price and it arrived on time

I received this today.  This lamp is not the same as the original, is of inferior quality, does not easily lock into place and the metal arm doesn't appear to have any spring like the original Sony lamp.  When I inserted the new lamp it would not snap into place and the plastic "hook" literally broke into pieces.  I am returning it and buying the real deal from Sony.

Question: Returning it - Not working

I bought this from Magnolia Home Theater at their recommendation for use with our new Denon receiver.

Getting the cheaper, non-wireless dock instead. Hopefully, it will work.

Perfect. It does just what it's supposed to. I bought one for me and for my son. It stays out of the way and does exactly what it should. Very reliable with long battery life.

Question: An Unexpected Favorite!

When I bought this album, I thought all the songs were going to be like "Get 'Em Outta Here." But this album actually has songs that are so much better! Don't get me wrong, I love that song, but my absolute favorite is "In Spite of it All," a song that I have played probably a thousand times. It's the music itself, combined with the lyrics that makes this such a mind numbingly outstanding album! I didn't even know they had put out another one until I saw Swirl available! I couldn't believe that after "Get "Em Outta Here" Sprung Monkey didn't release another song! Every song on this CD is unbelievable, and has turned into one of my alltime favorites. They are incredibly talented, and this is definitely a CD to blast at home or in the car! I hardly give five stars for a CD, simply because most of the time the CD has too many songs I skip over, but this one has made the cut. Get it if you do not have it!

really enjoyed it and learned much about Jefferson which was previously "foggy" for me!

Question: still a nice pair of jogging shorts

a little to skimpy for the gym, but ironically jogging outside... not embarrassing at all.  still a nice pair of jogging shorts.  I cut the brief out of mine because well it's actually bigger than the shorts themselves.  Given that I always wear a jockstrap anyway, I didn't need the brief inside.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The mystery, the suspense, and the sexual tension. All made for a wonderful read.  I couldn't put this book down. I enjoyed the style of this author's writhing, very well written.
Yes I would recommend this book as a very good read

Question: A 3-ring binder with a professional look

This year I restarted my small business and wanted to have a professional look. I was impressed by this 3-ring binder. It has an interior pocket on the inside of each cover. The three rings close tightly so papers do not fall out. I like the 1-1/2 inch size because it is easy to manage. Sometimes the 1 inch size is too small and the 2 inch is too large. The burgundy cover looks like leather and the gold corner protectors are a nice touch.  Integrity Resources is a great seller. They are courteous and really want to make sure you are satisfied with your purchase. I included photos of the inside pockets, the 3-ring mechanism and the front cover. I received this item at a discount for an honest and unbiased review.

UPDATE: I added two photos of a document inside a sheet protector and a tab divider. You can see they do not stick out beyond the binder.

Husband wanted a simple thin case and this is it.  Nice and slim but keeps ipad safe.

Bought this phone case for myself as a birthday present, but it was right away stolen by my 12 year old. So ended up buying a second one. There are setting for the light, so you can dim the light.  Absolutely love it, come with a charger. Wonderful for selfies in the dark, great when you forgot the leave the light on at the front door, when you are digging through your Way-to-big purse and need light.

Question: The only thing I can see why he would like it is it seems to be sturdy plastic

Gosh... This thing... My husband is a painter and felt he needed this for his car to organize his tools. He requested it as a Christmas gift, and it is under the tree for him. I do have to say, for the money I do not see the worth. It's just a big piece of plastic, the drawers are virtually empty. The only thing I can see why he would like it is it seems to be sturdy plastic, and the drawers have a push-lock system, so they won't fly open why driving. That's about it...

These lights came in a little ahead of schedule and they work very, VERY well.  However, they are spaced pretty close together, making it a bit of a challenge to arrange them properly on a tree.  They'd work much better in a straight line along the eaves of a roof, for instance.  I still like them, though, and will probably buy more in the future.

Question: Convenient for the Traveller

Good reading. Somewhat "high level"for the average reader.

I don't normally write reviews, but I was pretty excited to find a quality duvet at a reasonable price. I read the Amazon reviews and was pretty sure I knew what would arrive in the mail. Upon receiving the duvet, I noticed that the fabric was pilling. I assumed that if I washed it, the fabric would be okay, so I let that slide. Then I realized the zipper (why is there a zipper and not buttons?!) was stuck in such a way, that the duvet couldn't be closed, or fixed. Believe me, we tried. Also the fabric is pretty thin and feels flimsy, not crisp. And definitely not hotel quality. Buyer beware.

Question: Wow! Jam packed with information.

This book was a quick and easy read.  I learned so much about what I can do to prepare myself for getting pregnant.  I didn't realize just how important that time could be.  This book answered questions about ovulation and hormone levels that I have never really understood or worried about.  I feel like maybe there is hope now that I know how to get pregnant fast! At least I am more educated about it. We have a place to start and a path to get us to that final destination of getting pregnant

Question: Amazing times we live in.

This book has no big secrets about what happened behind closed doors. What it does offer is the insight from a very holy and devote man. I chose to read this book to understand what is happening in our beloved church. Pope Francis is challenging us to live our lives like Jesus, and I was interested how one man can wake up so many people. Very easy read and fast!

I purchased this sharpener specifically to sharpen several ceramic knives and it was one of the few that had a slot designated for ceramic. I read the directions carefully and after sliding my ceramic knife several times through the slot my knife it no longer has a smooth edge, the sharpener wore off the original edge on the knife and now it is too dull that it is hard to slice through a tomato. I cut fruits and vegetables everyday because we don't eat meat and I wanted my knives to be super sharp, this sharpener was a bad idea and I'm worried to use it on any of my other knives. It made my expensive ceramic knife that originally could cut a tomato with no pressure nearly worthless to use.

Question: Fantastic coming-of-age tale, less fantastic apocalyptic tale

I sort of loved this. I also get why some other people did not. It's not science fiction, it's barely speculative fiction, and it's not even all that apocalyptic, for a story set *during the apocalypse.* So for readers expecting those things (and why wouldn't they, since that's how it's being marketed?), I understand their disappointment. That being said, I experienced this as a beautifully ordinary coming-of-age tale made all the more poignant and heartbreaking by extraordinary circumstances.

"Beautifully ordinary" might sound odd, but I feel like the main character's ordinariness is intentional. Julia's such an exceptionally typical American tween that pretty much anyone can relate to her and her experiences. Her daily struggles - training bras, hopeless crushes, parents fighting - are the same ones I faced as an 11-year-old 23 years ago. I think a lot of us would like to remember our younger selves as a lot more intriguing then we really were (thanks in part to all the extraordinary young adults we encounter in literature these days), but if I'm being completely honest with myself, I was in no way kickass-post-apocalyptic-warrior material. Rather, the vast majority of things I actually remember from that age are along the lines of "the first time my mom let me shave my legs" and "that day that boy sat next to me on the bus." It's not exactly exciting, but it's true. And these things were just as important to me as saving the world might be to the characters I know and love and read today. And that, I think, is what I loved about this story. The "age of miracles" refers not to the whole end of the world thing, but to *middle school* (and that's not a theory - it's straight from the book). It doesn't matter that the planet is literally falling apart around her - the things that matter to Julia are the same things that matter to almost all (modern, Western) prepubescent girls: changing bodies, shifting friendships, your parents not getting you, the first flutters of sexual attraction, and so on. And the author captures those things incredibly well (Julia's horrifying training bra escapades could have been plucked from my own memory, as much as I hate to admit it).

As for the apocalyptic backdrop, it's mostly just that - a backdrop - but I liked the parallels between the planet's transformation and Julia's (they're both going through their most formative years, experiencing things that will define what/who they become and change the trajectory - HA! - of their lives). I also think the whole end of the world thing renders Julia's beautifully ordinary (which other people might just call "boring") coming-of-age tale a bit more extraordinary, and crushing, and real. When someone important to her drifts out of her life, she literally might never see or hear from that person again (since we've reached the point in this apocalyptic event where communication systems have failed). [Actually, if you think about it, this rings true in our world, too. There are people who were important to me in, say, sixth grade who I will never lay eyes on again. But thanks to things like Facebook, I have access to everything from the TV shows they watch to photos of their kids. And this sort of thing gives us a false sense of connectedness, I think...although that's a treatise for another day.] For all Julia knows, the people who have disappeared from her life could be dead. Which, of course, adds a whole new level of suckiness to being this age. But it's magical, too, as the title suggests, and I was happy to walk in Julia's beautifully ordinary shoes, if but for a moment.

I absolutely loved this book.  Amy is very authentic and as I read her book, I really came to know her and share her experiences that she describes.  She is a leader in a very important and evolving movement - honoring birth and death as profoundly sacred.  The book does a beautiful job of integrating the sharing of personal transformational experiences and educational insights.  And yes, it is the sacred breath that holds us in this circle of birth and death.  The weaving of writing about the life of a yoga & meditation teacher, a birth doula and hospital chaplain creates a profound and beautiful tapestry.

Question: Works great for Girl Scout patches

My wife loves these things. Makes putting bages on much easier.

This is a great calendar if you are new to scrapbooking and/or a child.  Provides cute stickers and easy directions.  Fun little kit.  Purchase it at the end of the year to use at the beginning of the next year, instead of mid-year like I did.

Question: STAY AWAY FROM THIS EXPENSIVE JUNK

Complete disappointment. Horrible to put together. Very counter-intuitive. I even cut myself with the sharp edges. I cannot return the item since I missed the return window by 5 days. It does not fit the cables properly in addition to the above. I have good dexterity and coordination being a robotic surgeon, but I must admit defeat when quality is poor. Amazon should be more selective with some of its products and maintain quality assurance not only on their customer (as they are over-zealous in that department), but also on their sellers, even when they are the sellers!

I didn't know how many of these seeds would germinate, so I planted 20 of them because my family really likes snow peas.  Now we are hip-deep in snow peas!  I will definitely buy these again, but will plant fewer of them next season, because they all germinate and produce like crazy.

Question: Perfect little picture.

This is beautiful.  It is small.  Perfect little picture that I can take with me when I go to chemotherapy.  I can stand it up on the table.  It is on my end table now and it gives me comfort.  It has a magnet on the back.  You could put it on your refrigerator.  Very nice little box it came in.  I am thrilled with this little picture.

The legs on these pants are so wide. I wasn't looking for bell bottom scrub pants so I returned them. Fit was otherwise ok.

Question: Love it. Could never go back to 60hz

Love it. It's my first gaming monitor and I could never go back. Use it at 120hz with a 1070. Mostly play Overwatch. Looks amazing.

When I first opened the box, I was a bit skeptical, as it looked kind of flimsy and cheap. I ordered this with several different kinds of tree guards, to try them all. I followed the directions, poked some hols for air circulation, and then poked three holes on each end so that I can put in zip ties. Overall, pretty easy to use, just needed a pair of scissors to poke the holes with, and had to provide my own zip ties. I put these on last November, and so far, it has managed through the winds, the snow, and the rain. Nothing has broken off, and when I check on the tree, there is no evidence of animal destruction, or pest infestation (it is not buried into the ground, I left it loose on the tree). So far it serves its purpose, and I like the fact that it's solid to use on an almond tree rather than painting the almond tree. I will post on update if anything changes.

Question: Great for Dog Walkers or Hot Yogis!

This is a fantastic hat for a dog walker in the Chicago Winter, or coming out of a Bikram Hot Yoga Class! Yes, it looks dorky, but no one knows it is you, so who cares? The best thing about it, is the breathing mesh - it doesn't get wet - and the nose is covered. I love this thing and can't believe I've lived in Chicago without it.

Excellent book made up of short anecdotes about the main character's childhood on Mango Street. This was the second time I've read this book, but I'm so glad I picked it up again. I think it captures the point-of-view of the young girl very well, and I noticed that her concerns become more mature throughout the book, as she grows into the awkward teenage years. I think most anyone will probably be able to relate to her on some level or another. Cisneros' prose style is very easy and pleasing to read.

Question: I'm in love with this shoe!

I absolutely love these shoes! I received so many compliments. They are super comfy. The image doesn't give this shoe justice. Beautiful in person!

The recorder itself is not a bad product but you have to be aware that Olympus cut corners in this recorder to sell it cheaper than the WS-82x series:

Pros: well built (feels sturdy - at least compared to the ws-821 I had); cheaper than other olympus models with stereo recording;
Cons: Bigger and boxier design; it takes 2 AAA batteries instead of 1; no backlight

I would have kept it but the lack of backlight was a deal breaker for me. Some recordings I do in low light environments

Question: Don't waste your money!!!

**This review is about the product only. The seller was just fine.

The product I received was defective. Started setting it up Christmas Day, got the tub inflated and found a small sentence in the lacking for detail instruction booklet that said it was not rated for the cold temperatures we were experiencing this past winter. So, we deflated it and put it away. Take it out in April when temps rose. The tub was not holding air. Called Intex and received a replacement tub. Tried setting it up again, get the tub and cover filled with air, the tub filled with water. Go to turn it on and the filter wasn't working. Called Intex. Tried a few tricks they told me about. While working with them the tub and cover start to lose air. So, now I have a tub, a cover and a filter that do not work. That's the entire product right there. So, Intex now wants me to pay to have the tub, cover and filter shipped back to them. It's their policy for the 2nd replacement. I tried to explain that I don't believe the policy should apply in this instance since we have yet to actually use the product and this is due to quality assurance on their end. I was getting no where with them. Shipping is going to be over a hundred dollars. Needless to say, my opinion, for what it's worth, is to not waste your money on this product or anything from this company. Find a company with better customer service and policies.

Honestly, I try to avoid cleaning at all cost. With this stick vac I almost get excited when I see a dust bunny running around. Went for this on as compared to the 9.6V models that can be easily found in Bestbuy or Target due to complaints about battery life. With the 12V model I can sweep the entire house on a single battery charge. Does an excellent job on our hardwood floors. The brush isn't really strong enough to pick up stuff from the carpet. I still gave it 5 stars because it works perfect for what I bought it for ... hardwood floors. Didnt really expect it to work on carpet; would be unrealistic to expect a stick vac to replace a plug-in standard upright. Would buy this again in a heartbeat and will even give you a demonstration if you come over ;-)

Question: Good material + Bad writing style = A dull book

- It has 16 pages of photos of the victims, the killer, the crime scenes and  the policemen involved.

- The story sounds interesting at first. A beautiful, 18-year-old girl disappeared with her car. The investigator found the car 14 years later buried 8 feet deep in the ground! They also found that the killer had killed at least 6 women in total. However the writing style makes it a dull book.

I received this for an honest review.. I have to say that this book took me on emotional roller coaster one that I wasn't sure if I ever wanted to get off this roller coaster. I really enjoyed this story. This is the first book I have read by Skylar and I have to say I really enjoyed and cant wait to read more

The author presents us with a dual POV which I love the best!!!!

Question: to me if it were slightly looser it would have been more comfortable and casual looking

I wished it came in a slightly bigger size, although it fit, to me if it were slightly looser it would have been more comfortable and casual looking. But the material was great, soft and slightly stretchy.

Although the first unit never arrived, TopSee made good on my order and replaced it.  The unit is great to use for lectures and those doctor visits where one needs to remember what was said.  BUT, be sure to inform the other person that you want to record the conversation.

Easy to use, especially if you bring audio into a freeware type program like Audacity to clean up background noise.

Great way to store lots of fruits (strawberries, pineapple chunks, blueberries, etc.) for breakfast and salads.
Saves lots of time.

I purchased this book because I needed to increase my knowledge in fetal monitoring, being a perinatal nurse I felt knowing more the merrier, therefore by buying this  fetal monitoring book I was able to read at my own pace. The printing was legible and the book well put together and easy to follow during review. I learnt quite a lot and was impressed with my increased knowledge, it was straight to the facts and in an understanding way, the chapters well put together and easy to follow, it was informative with what I needed. I recommended it to some of my peers and my Educator purchased one to assist her in teaching the students, what a great book for the perinatal areas and for everyone to purchase who works in the perinatal areas.

Question: Lots of dead pixels after only 300hrs

These things claim great bulb life, And that may be true. But it doesn't look like I'm going to find out first hand. The rate at which these (white) dead pixels are multiplying... It's going to be like I'm watching Star Wars all the time within a week.

I enjoyed the free Book of Mark from the Truth and Life App on my phone.  My six year old heard it playing one day and was fascinated! She asked for it so often that I ordered this full set for a road trip. The whole (five kid) family listened for two hours, quietly. (Well, except for occasionally wanting to know how the disciples still didn't get the loaves and fish thing.) There is something about the performance that all my children really love, and they beg for the "Jesus stories" to be played at bedtime and in the car.  They are discovering for themselves the similarities in the synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke), and I can't wait for the rest of the new testament to be brought to life for them.  I have heard all the stories together, but it is enlightening to hear an entire Gospel from start to finish.  Highly, highly recommended.  (Note: We also homeschool, and this is easier than assigning a reading, and more readily accepted.)

Bought this to upsize some size 6 rings, but they don't fit on it. Seems like the smallest size you could put on it would be 6.5.

Question: Great product with so many uses

<input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/A1DoVz9QQFS.mp4" class="video-url"><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61FQ7HCzi6S.png" class="video-slate-img-url"> I really like these keychain lights! This is my third one, I have two others in green and orange that I put on the collars of my small dogs for when I let them out at night so I can see where they are. The clip is fairly easy to clip onto keys, rings, backpacks etc. I bought this one for my keys to throw in my purse when I am walking home from class at night, just so I don't have to scramble for them outside in the cold. I never leave it on very long but it produces a very nice bright pink glow. It does however, appear that only one side works. So I ordered another and was going to return the first one, but I guess they all do that and I just never realized it before. I think its very useful, convent, and inexpensive. I don't know why you wouldn't buy this product, as you can find so many great uses for it.
To turn it on and off you have to give it a little force (this could be just because mine is still new and I haven't broken it in yet). I also noticed that if you click it once then wait a while then click it again, it will turn off. But if you click it twice relatively quickly it will go from one (first click) to blinking (second click) then shut off on the third click. I find this to be a very great feature! Because if I want it on stay on mode then go to turn it off a little later, I don't want to have to click it twice to turn it off. Quality engineering right there! (I tried to show this in my video)

Very nice, but a little small and the hooks will fall off the rod if one is not gentle when pushing the curtain back.

Question: Not the Same Bra as Before

I have been buying this model of bra for at least 3 years. I noticed that the bras I received are made differently than the last two times I purchased this model bra. My other bras had more stiffness in the cups. As a result, out of the 7 bras I bought recently, all of them developed grooves in the cups within a matter of days. This means that when I put on the bras it looks like my nipples are sticking out through the bra. I can state from prior experience that this model of bra has always developed these grooves after a year of wearing, but NEVER this soon. And to add insult to injury, the strap broke on one of the bras after wearing it once! Again, I had owned these bras for about a week. I want to stress that I store my bras exactly like they are stored in the drawers at Victoria's Secret. I cannot return the bras because they were worn, and am very unhappy. I recommended these bras to people in the past, but I would not recommend this current model to anyone.

Super comfy on little ears. Though it doesn't seem any different in the noise department as any other headphones can get very loud.

I genuinely enjoyed this easy read. It was straight to the point & very interesting to learn about both feminine & masculine energy strengths we all possess & how to balance them out- that's where the magic happens. Awesome topic that I think could go into more depth perhaps in a second book. It's been fun trying to think of what energy strengths family & friends have. And BRAVO to Mimi for pursuing her dream to write about this idea. It's very inspiring & admirable. love + light

Question: Overall not too bad. Couple of questionable cards

Bought a few octillery in one purchase. Overall not too bad. Couple of questionable cards. One definitely wasn't near mint with a carved in scratch down the holo.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

 At first I really enjoyed this book but towards the end I found the characters relationship grating on my nerves. It's too high school lovey dovey "oh the world will end if I don't have a life of my own." I feel this presents a bad example for young girls. While I more than anyone appreciate going out of your way to be with the person you love, I found the situation in this story absolutely grating on my nerves. The main character was expected to move hundreds of miles away from her family while the boyfriend never once seemed to consider moving to her home country or the two of them moving somewhere altogether more mutual. The entire choosing to attend a college based on the choice of her loved one's choice just really irked me. Not to mention, I would assume in order to be accepted into an English program at Oxford would require some degree of examples of writing which William would not be able to fake on his own. As the story progressed I grew to dislike William as a character because he seems weak yet over protective.

Now all of that aside, the author's writing style took some getting used to. Some of the writing is very short, blunt and to the point (think see spot run.) Once the author broke past this in the beginning the story felt more natural and the style was much improved. However, her transitions, I feel need a lot of work. Throughout the story you expect a chapter break where there is none. Additionally, there are some pretty obvious parallels with this both and Twilight, with a bit of a Harry Potter want to be feel. While sometimes that's a good thing, in this case it was not.

Despite all of this I did enjoy the story and I feel the author has some very interesting ideas to work with. Her writing, however, just needs a little polished. I am looking forward to reading more in this series even with the flaws mentioned.

Question: Confused, but Still Worth Reading.

Please Look After Mom is a translated book from Korea. I wanted to like this book SOO MUCH, have tried to read it multiple times. It took listening to the audio for me to finish it out. I love Korea. Love the country, the people, the language, the food. I did not love this book. It was a bestseller in Korea, then came to America and won some prizes. But man, it just wasn't for me and that makes me sad.

The book is sectioned into four parts, all narrated by different members of 'mom's' family. Mom has gone missing while at a subway station in Seoul. The characters tell their tales of themselves, their relationships with their mother, and learn none of them really knew her like they thought they did. Sounds great in theory.

My biggest problem with this book was totally the make of it- the majority of it is written in the 2nd person. I could not grasp the 2nd person-ness of this. Especially listening to the audio, the 4 parts are narrated by 4 different people but still say "You saw your mother". It just doesn't make sense for me for all 4 different characters to be telling me what I'm doing in different voices. If I'm the 2nd person, then why are there different voices? Because I'm 4 different people? 2nd person just is a tough barrier for me.

I also feel like if I could have read this in Korean, it would have resonated much more for me. The beauty of the langauge- even the word mom. Saying 'mom' so many times sounded whiny to me. If had been the Korean  pronounced 'oma', with it's vowey-ness and flow it probably would have sounded prettier, and had more delicacy and care for the mother. Saying 'mom' just sounded harsh. I'm in the weird in the middle, knowing some Korean words, but definitely couldn't read a book in Korean. I wished a lot of the Korean stuff was in Korean- places, subway stations, sections of the city, foods, holidays and their traditions. Those were all lost in the English translation and meant a lot less to me because of it. Changing  or 'Chuseok' to a 'a harvest festival' totally plays down the holiday. I get it-most American readers won't understand Chuseok, but I do, and I felt like I was having to figure out what their translations meant to get the real Koreanness of it.

I get why this was so popular- it's familial themes. The revealing of the mom's characteristics unfold the true relationships between the family members. I appreciated what author  was going for, but the context that I read it was not supportive to me enjoying it. The shifting perspectives and 2nd person made it difficult for me to sit through even on audio- and considering this is less than 300 pages- it felt a lot longer. If I ever learn Korean well enough to read a book in it I'd want to try this book again. But until then, doesn't give me hope for other Korean translated works. My three stars is very forgiving, I probably rated it higher just because I wanted to like it more, and the Korea subject makes me nostalgic

Fantastic taste and 100% healthy ingredients - apple, spinach, onion, quinoa, coconut nectar and psyllium husk
I am super happy to have found these wraps
Thanks for making them!

Question: Doesn't fulfill its purpose

I read reviews on this item before purchasing it but didn't quite understand. The metal is solid-check. It holds lots of cards - check. Heavy, feels good in your hands - check. Looks good and makes a good impression - check. Stays shut and protects your business cards - NO. The problem isn't a defective unit. The problem is the design.

I expected that the lid work something like a zippo lighter. After all, the similarities in appearance are too many to discuss. The lid instead, is held "closed" through friction. If you look very carefully at the picture on Amazon, you'll see to the side opposite the hing a metal tooth coming out of the case. That tooth is ever so slightly angled so that the lid fits over it and then pulls against it. One might think of it as a sort of doorstop? Anyways, initially, the lid stays closed. However, the design always assumed that the solid hinge show absolutely no wear at all. In less than a month, the lid began to open. I'm not sure if the metal tooth became ever so slightly bent or if the hinge lost some shape.

It didn't bother me too much, as the cards within would "catch" the lid, so the cards have never spilled out. However, what does happen is that the corners of my business cards become dented.

The purpose of this product is first and foremost to protect business cards. It does not fulfill this purpose. If you don't need a business card holder, but, need something shiny and heavy to carry around in your pocket, then this item is perfect!

This book is very interesting.  I feel like I am right there, witnessing everything.  It is historical fiction, at a time when those living in Europe, had to turn in their radios, live without electricity, water, and food.  Walking on the beach was not safe either.  This book will open your eyes to a very dark time in history.

Question: Quirky, dark, very interesting movie

If you want a predicatble, up-beat movie, as some reviewers apparently wanted, then this movie is not for you.  Donnie Darko is off-beat, quirky, and very dark.  The acting is superb.  Those who are patient will find that there is a payoff at the end.

The movie uses principles of quantum physics to show how one action performed by one person can have significant consequences later on.  I watched the original DVD release a few years ago and was very impressed.  I recently watched the Director's Cut and found myself thinking that the original was slightly better.  The director's cut adds 20 minutes to the original movie.  I highly watching reccomend either version.

This case was a bit smaller than i thought it would be. It fit my phone perfectly but the thickness of the leather was not what i expected. I will still use it or I may give it as a gift.

Question: Better to have and not need.

So far so good, we haven't had to use this service agreement. It gives me peace of mind knowing I have it.

Question: Didn't work for my cat

I like that this product is more natural than many commercial products out there with a bunch of toxic chemicals. However, this product didn't work on my kitten at all. In fact, he bit it so much and then it ended up on the floor! I think an easier solution would be a natural diffusing calming scent, such as lavender oil. Therefore, I am going to put my natural lavender oil in a diffuser and see how that works for him.

Hmmm.... works pretty well. I am sort of concerned about the Palm oil.... When you use it the thickness of the greasy quality takes a minute to clean off... Not sure if I want that kind of sticky greasy stuff on my insides....

Question: Easy and Cheap Fix for anyone with audio feedback with microphones.

I built a computer for gaming and often use headphones. When I tried using my microphone on my headset people would think I'm playing in a helicopter or using an old timer movie projector. I was getting feedback due to parts in my computer being too close together. I wasn't about to try to dismantle what was built and find it a new home, so a friend suggested this. This was an easy and cheap solution and now people don't have to say GET TO THE CHOPPA every time I say something.

Though I would not say it is the best of Perez-Reverte's books (and I think he possibly is incapable of a bad one, though I'm not a huge fan of the Captain Alatriste series) it is very good and maybe great. I think some of his works are classics and worthy of 5 stars, but, I would give this one 4 (though I give many books I really enjoyed just three if there is nothing special about them). He does not just write action adventures but brilliant historical fiction (even if it takes place in the present), each one threaded with an endless stream of arcane knowledge. Really, what an interesting guy. I have a few qualms with this book so that I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars - and I probably would on another day give it that 5. Mostly, I thought the mysterious female character too commonplace or stereotypical for APR. And, his repeated use of the word "bare" with respect to her, perhaps to point out her animal nature, was lacking in any subtlety. BUT, this was a wonderful book otherwise. You really cannot go wrong with this author on any level - intelligence, action, suspense, etc.  Foremost among his books I rate The Seville Communion, The Fencing Master, The Flanders Panel, The Nautical Chart and The Queen of the South, followed by this one. And some people love the Alatriste series, of which I've read two and perhaps will read the rest.  I am reading his newest, The Siege at the time of this review. Other than Steven Pressfield, I know of no living author who combines intelligent historical fiction with action so well.

Question: It broke within hours of normal use!

My son got it for Christmas and it broke almost immediately!  It was an internal problem.  The light still goes on but the motor doesn't run.  How sad for a $20 toy that was probably made for pennies in some sweatshop overseas.  Luckily we will be able to return it.

Yet another accessory from Summit that enhances your hunting experience.  Very easy to install and has great support for my Slug gun.

Question: Great Toy for a 4 year old cowboy!!

I got this for my 4 year old grandson and he absolutely loves it!

When I first plugged this in, using the cable that came with my phone, nothing happened. I know the cable is a good one, but for some reason it failed to even power up this charging pad. I tried using the included cable, and it worked like a charm.

If it is powered, the small LED will light up green. If it is charging, it will flash between green and blue. Manual says it should stay blue, I'm not sure if this indicates a problem with my setup or if it is working as designed.

Labeling on the back of the charging pad states : Input 5V 2A, Output 5V 1A. Convenience comes at some efficiency loss. It also states that it is made in China, if you care about that.

Included is the charging pad and a microUSB cable about 3.3 ft (1m) long. The charging pad itself is about 1/4" thick and 3 1/2" in diameter. It has rubber feet at the bottom that provides good grip. The included USB cable plugs in nicely and the plug is thin enough not to interfere with either the pad and table, or the pad and the device you're charging. Some documentation is included, but shouldn't be necessary. Interestingly, it is in English, German and Japanese.

Not bad for the cost. They did cause pain in the mid foot arch until I replaced the factory shoelaces with expendable shoelaces. They are quite comfortable now.

Question: Amazingly beautiful...and annoying!

I'm a total Star Wars nerd...I even like the prequel movies (though I have to plug my ears during much of Jar Jar's dialog).  Anyway, I think this may be one of the most graphically polished games on the system.  It's just a shame that much of the game play is cheap and annoying.  Every time I learn a new power, I'm immediately introduced to enemies that are magically immune to it.  Congratulations...you just learned the Force Push...now here's a tall black storm trooper that you can't use it on because he's three feet taller than the others (never mind the fact that I was just pulling Tie Fighters out of the air with the force).  Hey!  I just learned to shoot lightning out of my fingers!  Time to introduce the magical electro-storm troopers that are engulfed in electricity and invulnerable.  Clever huh?  Also, far too often I'm trying to target one of the 20 enemies attacking me cheaply and the game mistakenly thinks I'm trying to stack crates with the force during the battle so it targets some random piece of debris instead and I end up wasting my lightning on it.  The enemies time their attacks so that when you get knocked down (every few seconds) they hit you again as you're standing up.  If you die at the end of a battle, you get to start it all over again!  Hooray!  I've seen the same two quick time event AT-ST animations a hundred times due to replaying the cheap battles over and over.  But...the game is pretty and it's Star Wars so I'm still playing it.

Perfect scale for my needs and for the price! Display options include pounds-ounces, grams, fluid ounces (although I have to assume this is for water only since there is no way to change it for other fluids). Easy to switch units and to tare (zero) scale.

Question: Great fit and wash great!

The material and size are all that I expected.  They wash well too!  The stitched pocket is a little irritating.  I think the pocket should have been deeper if it's going to be there to cover the end of the pillow.  Otherwise they are fantastic.

I have repeatedly found Vadim Gluzman to be one of the most underrated violinists around today. Here he plays two breathtaking interpretations of the Korngold and Dvarionas violin concertos as well as the miniature "By the Lake" by Dvarionas. Personally, I am not a big fan of Korngold's cinematic musical languauge which is the only reason why I cannot give this CD five stars, Gluzman's interpretation is more than satisfactory. The Dvarionas concerto is absolutely astounding. This is the first time I have heard this piece, and it is a shame that it is not better known. It's fusion of folk melodies with late Romantic and 20th century harmonies is beautifully reminiscent of the Sibelius concerto. Gluzman's technical mastery is on full display in the outer movements, as is his capacity for emotional passages in the tender Andante.

Question: Review of black fleece pants

These were much too large for me.  I mistakenly measured  my waist and inseam.  I have order a smaller size, and am due to get smaller size this week.

This is one of my preferred beginner methods to use with my own students. Instead of falling prey to the hackneyed "Polly-wally-doodles" and other expired copyright public works, Mark has taken the time to write his own exercises that are both musical and instructional. Standard notation reading is taught alongside tablature and the sections are broken up nicely so that students are exposed to both frequently. The moveable chord forms at the end of the book are also a convenient reference for intermediate students, not just beginners.

Question: Great Beginners Easel

Well designed and crafted.  You have to use the wing nuts to make sure to tighten the screws to be able to actually leave the case open in order to use it as an easel.  Lots of storage room, with removable pieces inside to make two or three of the compartments larger.  Hardware that is used is of higher quality. This also includes a large plastic pallet for mixing colors.  Much larger than I expected, but my daughter was very excited.

We bought this for our 9 month old twins and they play with it constantly.  They have other Baby Einstein toys so they are familiar with the classical music.  Great toy for my sanity (pleasant sounds and has volume control and can be turned off).  It teaches numbers in english, french and spanish 1-5.  They enjoy spinning the top spinner as well.  It is compact so we take it with us to other's houses.

Question: Good fix for Whirlpool Cabrio UL problem

Suspension kit ended bp working great ... finally have a washing machine the finishes the spin cycle and doesn't get UL errors.  First, here is how to tell if your rods need replacing:  Push  down in the center of the tub several times and let go.  If the tub bounes a bit, then the rods need replacing.  With the new rods installed, you get a dampening affect, and no bounce at all.  Also, it is much easier to change the rods with a helper, and also I used the suggestion to use the old rods to hook on to the top of the new rods  when pulling them up to connect the plastic ball.  Makes it much easier.  Finally, watch a Youtube video on changing the suspension rods ...

This book was so good.  Its funny.  There is a lot of laugh out loud moments.  Gary and Helly are neighbors in Alaska.  Helly cant stand Gary since the day he moved in with his helicopter and noise.  They have a hilarious feud going on while fighting heir attraction to each other.  Theres a secret that's revealed (didnt expect it) but love prevailed.  Loved all of the characters.  Loved her three brothers, hope their stories will be told.

Question: ... have read by Stephie Wells and I am so glad I discovered her stories

This is now the second book that I have read by Stephie Wells and I am so glad I discovered her stories. This is definitely a story of strength, heartache, hurt, hardship and betrayal but mostly the determined and loyal love for family that in spite of all the money in the world is priceless. This was an enjoyable yet difficult, emotional read on many levels.

We see the resilience , courage and bravery of Gianna LeBron's character to provide for herself and her three young children, traits that are very admirable. Jase Lane is her "best friend" and only wants what is best for her and her family and is a strong figure in her life. He is determined to help her in any way despite her wanting to make it all on her own. They say sometimes we find our strengths in our weaknesses and Gianni was a perfect example of this. The means to survive was Gianni's primary goal and through friendships, family and love she was on a quest to conquer this in spite of the many hardships she faced. Sometimes we are forced to do things that we never thought we would do just to endure the challenges and falls that life presents to us. It is how we rise from this that is relevant.

I would definitely recommend this read as it will make you step back and realize what is truly important in life, the love, guidance and protection of your family and loved ones always.

I should preface this by saying that I am an avid reader of mm romance. I prefer the 2 alpha males trope because I want to read an mm romance; not a mf romance with extra rods and shafts. Shadows Seduction for all that it seemed to try not to  seemed to fall into the latter category. It also probably didn't help that I read it right after reading the last IAD novel and I had pretty much had it with the fated mate theme. In fact it seemed very similar to Sweet Ruin  one fated mated doing the happy happy joy joy, cannot wait to start our life together dance and the other resisting to the point of tediousness for three quarters of the story.

In Shadows Seduction, The Death Demon Caspian was particularly annoying in his resistance. First it was Im straight. No interest in males and it was explained that he hailed from a demonarchy that was particularly homophobic. Then when he wrapped his horns around his attraction to the vampire and Dacian prince Mirceo it became but I want pups so I cant settle for you. Then when it was pointed out that there were ways around the whole having pups thing and they could still sire little demons and vampires to have the whole family experience  then it became but you're a vampire slut and youll never be faithful and my mate will be MINE and MINE ALONE and you won't be able to keep your fangs in your mouth and your shaft in your pants. And at this point I just wanted Mirceo to tell Cas to go shaft himself, fated mate or not.

Cas was portrayed as the dominant, older, more manly male and the Prince was slightly effeminate, more capricious. There was plenty of purple-y prose over the top sex scenes that played up the whole virgin angle:
C: don't be nervous
M: Wouldnt any blushing virgin be
C: but first I need to get my treasured mate ready. Im going to take care of you Mirceo. Tonight and always. Do you trust me not to hurt you?
M: I do. I trust you in this. I trust you in everything. I always have.
Me: Oh just gag me with a spoon.

Then action/adventure followed by misunderstandings, assumptions of the a$$-you-me variety and much angst (or presumably angst if I cared  which I totally didnt). Shadows Seduction was the first Dacian book I read despite my OCD raging at the gap in my IAD reading history. It seemed to sort of recap the first book Shadows Claim and gave me absolutely no inclination to dive down that rabbit hole. It also set up the next Dacian book  and it seems like Cas and Mirceo will play significant roles in that story, but again  all set.

Question: Add a nice touch of indoor/outdoor bday decor

Creases are so noticeable, saying that is very nice I was able to use it for outdoor/indoor dcor for my 3 year old bday party, I like the way it turned out. I got compliments on dcor. if you don't mind dealing with the creases them you will not go wrong with this one. you can use it on one big empty wall or separated as I did it (for the presents on chimney area).

I was not sure what to expect from these headphones, but wow.
Its nice and clear sounding,  I lessen to rock/pop and some r&b/rap
so bass is awesome and don't interfere with the music lows.

They only pair with one device at a time so you have to keep pairing them with any other devices.
one way i get around this is i have them connected to my usport which is the universal Bluetooth adapter from jaybird,
works great.  switch from iPod to psvita flawlessly.  Just cant use side buttons of headphones except to mute. but meh, whatever.

5stars for sound,quality built and all around great headphones.

Question: ready for the next book in the series

This time, the sequel's equal and in some ways, even better. Another YA-teen full length novel about real life and virtual life, and the interesting ways those supposedly separate entities can overlap. I read this sequel before the first novel (Assured Destruction), but it doesn't matter. Both can stand alone and both are excellent.

Understand, I hate books written in present tense. If I find I've accidentally downloaded one, it's deleted. I just don't like them. This book had me wrapped up in the first Kindle screen, and I found myself fascinated before I even realized the author had importuned me with his challenging grammatical structure. By the time I clicked to the second screen, I knew I'd relaxed into the web of a good author. He could have written the book in pidgin English and I'd still have finished it.

16-year-old Janus helps her mother (crippled with MS) run their family business, Assured Destruction. Customers bring in their old computers and other electronic gear for recycling, and the hard drives are shredded. Janus still has her ring network, Shadownet, and she still lives portions of her life through her various virtual identities. But now she's also lending her considerable skills to the local police department, helping to crack computer crimes, or at least that's the idea. With Janus, things don't always work according to plan, but that's good entertainment.

I read it in two sittings. Five stars. Write fast, Mr. Stewart.

I purchased this product for my Blackberry Curve 8320. Great protection! Tad bit loose. I shimmed it using a small folded piece of paper. Although it comes with a hard clear pastic screen protector, it would have been nice to have included a static stick-on screen protector.

Question: Not worth the money and not Kohler Starter - Starter is dead after 1 year of minimal use.

The good - was shipped quickly and assembly was easy.
The BAD - this is NOT a Genuine Kohler part Starter - purchased June 2014 and just died today September 2015 - when removed from the tractor today it basically fell apart.  The mower was used very minimally since replacing the starter since we live in the Northeast.
The original Kohler starter lasted 7 years.  Huge difference!  Will be purchases a REAL Kohler Starter for about $115 verses this after market option for $79.  For a few more dollars I will also get a 2 year warranty.

Its good filtering wise. However, its very fragile, most probably would break after first fall.

Question: It works as advertised, no need to spend more.

I put it on a Mr. Longarm 23 ft. extension pole I got from Lowe's and killed some wasp nests that were 25 feet off the ground. The can is positioned to shoot straight up so put it 5 ft. below the nest and you'll be fine. Those people who say it doesn't work or slides down have not removed the tab on the spray can before they lifted it up. Once removed it shoots with very little pressure. The thing is very rigid and plastic so I don't know about it's durability but should certainly work for 6-10 cans just be careful with inserting the cans and adjusting for can length.

I bought it, but this product is not quality. The markings on the coil spring are very difficult to read, there is no threading on the spring shafts for the threaded and knurled grips to grab purchase, and unless you jam the grips to the highest setting...they do not safely stay put. I will be pitching theses in the dust bin and getting the Kings of Crush grip trainers instead. I guess the old axiom is true - but cheap...buy twice.  Buy quality...buy once. Lesson learned.
