Oreck Genuine Hypo-Allergenic Celoc Filter Bags Huge Package of 8 These Are Original Oreck Bags, Not Generic Like the Others

Cheap Oreck Genuine Hypo-Allergenic Celoc Filter Bags Huge Package of 8 These Are Original Oreck Bags, Not Generic Like the Others Review

I purchased these bags and received generic bags. I contacted the seller and, citing a shipping error, they sent the correct Oreck bags. I originally rated the seller with 1 star. But they responded to my email and sent the correct product so quickly that I should have rated them with 5 stars. I’ll buy from them again. The way I see it, mistakes can happen. What separates a good seller from bad is whether or not I receive what I ordered at the agreed upon price. This seller delivered!

Cheap Disposable Chopsticks, pack of 40 pair #820900 Review

Product intended for use in a classroom teaching Asian cultures and languages. Unfortunately, product did not arrive in time for said lesson. Great price, great product, but didn’t get the chance to use them with the students. That was unfortunate for them. Shipping time took over a MONTH.

Breville JE95XL Two-Speed Juice Fountain Plus

Cheap Breville JE95XL Two-Speed Juice Fountain Plus Review

This is my new favorite machine. This is my first juicer, so I don’t have much to compare it to. However, I did extensive research and this is the one that seemed to best fit my needs. It juices perfectly, even softer items (pulp is not as dry) and clean-up is a breeze. It literally takes my three minutes to wash everything shiny clean by hand. Best of all I love that I can serve my family fresh and healthy fruit and vegetable juices.

American Baby Company Organic Waterproof Quilted Crib and Toddler Pad

Cheap American Baby Company Organic Waterproof Quilted Crib and Toddler Pad Review

I was concerned about my original pad that I purchased when you do the massive buy everything at Babies R Us when you have your first. Over time, it just seemed so flimsy and gross after so many washings. But THIS IS AWESOME- well worth the money. I have some very plush sheets (like those uber soft travel pillows) that I got from One Step Ahead (get them they’re awesome too)… and now with this cover, the bed is super soft and really I think just what I wanted. Great buy- worth the money.

Tinkerbell Fairies Flitterific Twin Sheet Set

Cheap Tinkerbell Fairies Flitterific Twin Sheet Set Review

Likes stated in the other review, Tinkerbell only appears on the pillowcase. I was expecting that though, as it seems to be the norm on character sheets (our Dora sheets are the same way). But, they match the comforter really well. And, most important my daughter loves them. Perfect set to complete her new room decor.

Rca Rc59I Clock Radio with Ipod Dock

Cheap Rca Rc59I Clock Radio with Ipod Dock Review

Does what we want, doesn’t take up much space. Has good sound.
We had to remove the little black part so our Nano would fit.
You need to insert a flat screwdriver in the small slot on the back side of the part
and lift it out. Otherwise the Nano wouldn’t connect.
It has big enough numbers to see when you’re still half asleep.

Evenflo Summit Pressure Mounted Metal Gate

June 24, 2010

Cheap Evenflo Summit Pressure Mounted Metal Gate Review

This gate was difficult to install. OK, part of the reason could be because I cut off the zip tie holding the gate closed before I had the gate completely installed. The instructions tell you not to cut it off until everything is installed…I thought I had it installed to my liking, but later decided to shift it a bit. Once you cut off the zip tie it’s very difficult to install. This means if you later want to install it on a different doorway, because the zip tie has already been cut off, it’ll be difficult to install – definitely a two person job.

Once we were able to get it properly installed it worked great. This gate is VERY sturdy (note: we did NOT use the extension…some gates become less sturdy once you use the extension). It’s very easy to open with just one hand. Some people mentioned they had trouble opening the gate. There are two tricks: 1) make sure the tension on each of the screws is properly adjusted – the indicator dot will be completely green when the tension is adjusted correctly; 2) to open the gate, pinch the two buttons with your fingers while using the heel of your hand to push down on the end of the handle that’s on the OPPOSITE side from the two buttons (don’t try to push down on the handle where the buttons are – it won’t work). Once you learn how to open the gate, it’s easy!

Imusa Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, 8-Inch

May 5, 2010

Cheap Imusa Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, 8-Inch Review

I love this tortilla press! It does all of the work for you. I use a gallon sized plastic storage bag, cut it around all edges to get two halves. Place one on the bottom of the press, place ball of tortilla dough on top, place the other half of the bag on top of that, close the top of the press, press down, and there you have your flattened tortilla ready to cook. It is that simple. When I say you “press down” you don’t have to press and press to flatten it. The weight of the press is all you need. Clean up is so easy because I covered the press with the plastic so the dough does not stick to the press. I also tried wax paper and plastic wrap but the tortilla stuck to it, So definitely go with the plastic storage bags. I will never buy corn tortillas again. With this press, there is no excuse not to make your own and they taste so much better, in my opinion.

Fancy Feast Gourmet Cat Food, Flaked Fish & Shrimp Feast, 3-Ounce Cans (Pack of 24)

May 4, 2010

Cheap Fancy Feast Gourmet Cat Food, Flaked Fish & Shrimp Feast, 3-Ounce Cans (Pack of 24) Review

Flaked Fish and Shrimp most likely has the best ingredients in Fancy brand. As another review pointed out, it’s 15% more protein. Not only that, if you look at the ingredients list, you can see “Ocean Fish, Fish Broth, Shrimp” at the top of the list. The rule is that higher percentage component in the food goes first. Having ocean fish and shrimp is great, as opposed to “liver or meat-by-product”. In fact, there is no meat-by-product in the list.

Of course, it’s also that my cat likes to eat this. Therefore, I subscribe to this on Amazon as my cat’s regular meal.
