__label__1 Keralyt Gel at 3 percent not effective on foot corns: Kerlyt Gel at a higher percentage might be very effective on corns, but at 3 percent it did nothing to give me relief from my corns. They claim keralyt gel can also be used for helping with symptoms of psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. The ingredient salicylic acid at 16 percent bought over the counter is far more effective for my problem. |
__label__1 awful!!!: Got the belt three days late and it broke the first timw we turned the vacuum on. It was extremely disappointing |
__label__1 cheaply made: I bought this product and both belts broke w/in 3 vacuums.I love Eureka vacuums but not these belts with this particular vacuum.The problem was this rug started unraveling, a strand wrapped around roller, thus breaking the belt very quickly."extended life" my ass. |
__label__1 Replacement Belt: Terrible product. Both belts in the package lasted less than a minute.Eureka 61120b Extended Life Replacement Belt Style "U" |
__label__1 Still breaks frequently: I bought three belts to replace the broken one in my Eureka vacuum. The first one lasted two hours, and the second one two weeks. I'm on the third of three now -- if it breaks, I might just replace the vacuum with one that's of higher quality. That said, the belts haven't impressed me. |
__label__1 I did not expect to receive a product like this. Especially if purchased from Amazon.: They sent me a belt that is already at the end of its shelf life. It snapped and broke the second day my wife used the vacuum cleaner. I was'nt pleased with the product. I only got about an hour and a half of use on this product. |
__label__1 great fit didnt hold up: I am in afghanistan and work on heavy equipment.I bought these gloves because of the reviews and the fact that the mechanics gloves we were provided just dont hold up.Well the gloves lasted 3 days then the finger seam blew out just like the mechanics gloves do.The fit is great and feel like they are brok in as soon as you wear them.Wish i can find a pair that lives up to the hype.good thing they will be a tax write off. |
__label__1 Handle plating is peeling: I've used the faucet for 6 months. Same issue as another review - the chrome plating on the handle is peeling off. I'll post a followup if Danze addresses the issue. |
__label__1 Danze Faucet: 1 star.... I renovated my bathroom in April 2009-down to the stud. I used the Danze faucet ($$$$) and unfortunately the handle is already peeling Sept '10. I must say, my previous bathroom faucet was 15+ years old and held up better than this product. Very disappointed. I will post further details once I get in contact with CS. |
__label__1 peeling finish: Same as the other reviews. We bought this in 2010, and in less than a year the finish is peeling off of one of the faucets. |
__label__1 finish peels!: We bought the entire Danze Parma collection for our gutted bathroom in winter 2008. Three body sprays, hand held shower, two faucets etc.By summer 2009 the finish was peeling off of all but two fixtures. I took photo's and emailed them to Danze along with product numbers and place of purchase.They replaced all of the fixtures, but once again they are peeling!! I used "scubbing bubbles" on the first ones, which I thought was benign enough. On the replacements I used diluted white vinegar (per Danze instruction)and still they peel. I have taken more photo's but have not had the time to send them in, but will now. We are remodeling another bath and although we love the look of the fixtures, we won't use Danze again. They are warranted for life but who wants to constantly be changing the fixtures?! My husband wants to replace everything but that would involve ripping out the tile, so that's not happening. |
__label__1 Don't be confused: Please don't be confused as to what this item is. I bought it believing that it is a full sun screen to keep the interior of my car cool. It is not!! It is just the strip that goes on the exterior of the windshield. I am not a happy customer!! |
__label__1 misrepresentation: I would not buy this product I would stay away from the company.This item will not stay , stick or adhere to the windshield.It falls from the sun and if you drive with window open it will fall into your face and block your view.I understood that I purchased a windshield decal however this isjust a 'static cling' product.I would rate this item 0 [no] star if I could. |
__label__2 Any questions? The answers are here!: This CD of mostly originals by Deanna Witkowski is quite spectacular in most respects. The overall sound of the album is excellent, and the ensembles are tight, with ambitious arrangements and complicated time/feel changes that are navigated smoothly. Most of the cuts are sophisticated and satisfying. The opposite of background music, or "smooth jazz", this is an intelligent CD that needs your attention to be fully appreciated!Deanna's light, airy vocals are a perfect fit for the hip, changing grooves on the first track, which also features passionate solos in a tune slightly reminiscent of Urszula Dudziak's work. Deanna's piano work is astounding overall - she plays with mastery, whimsy, humor and finesse - sounding a bit like Bill Evans on BLAME IT ON MY YOUTH, and swinging solidly on I'M ALL SMILES. The latter song reveals her vocal limitations, however - the only reason for 4 stars, and not 5! |
__label__1 Disappointing: Had high hopes for this one, was looking for some specific advice on employers and fields outside academia who would hire Ph. D.'s. Found mainly warmed-over What Color Is Your Parachute ignore-the-job-market-realities pap, old-hat interview and resume stuff, and other ideas geared toward helping lifelong academics understand a few basic things about the business world (in which I spent almost 20 years). $35 later I still don't have even a good general picture of my nonacademic prospects after completing the Ph. D. next year, but see no better source out there. Guess that's what I get for choosing a five-year-old out of print book; afraid I see the reason why. |
__label__2 Perfect for MA types: I read the reviews and realized that I purchased the book to help graduate students that I was mentoring. The book is absolutely perfect for MA students and for some PhD types who are contemplating what to do outside of academia.It's an easy read and better than most other career minded books that are geared more so for business students. I've had good responses from students who I've either loaned my copy to or who have purchased the book themselves. |
__label__2 a beginner say: i had a 347GB which i think is quite similar the construction with the 343 except few structures. i am not giving the comments on the practicality in terms of photography because i am still new in it, i would like to commend on the construction of the trilpod. the near-all metal contruction is good in sense that it can stand the test of in case there is any failure, but it is unlikely because it is so strong. |
__label__1 broke after 2 weeks: I purchased this tripod based on editorial reviews such as: http://www.imaging-resource.com/ACCS/VEL/VEL.HTM, right before embarking on a 10 week x-country roadtrip.2 weeks into the trip, the clamp that allows extension in one of the legs broke, making it impossible to extend and lock the leg.It turns out the the inside pieces are cheap plastic!Please note that I was a bit rough with it (undoing the clamps and flipping upside down to let the legs collapse), but given that this was designed for outdoor, 'roughing it' expeditions, it should really not have broken so easily.I will say that the size and weight are fantastic.The inner components should definately be stronger!!! |
__label__2 JUST THE RIGHT SIZE: Velbon's MAXi 343E tripod is the perfect size for traveling. It easily fits into my carry on bag along with my camera gear. Although it is too light-weight to support heavier gear, it is ideal for my digital camera work. I also love the swivel head that does away with the old arm-mount design. I can set up in a snap. Just level and shoot. It has solved my need to "travel light" and recommend it to others with similar needs. |
__label__2 Excellent Light Weight Tripod: I've had and used this Tripod for nearly 2 years now and absolutely love it. It is the perfect size to fit in my carry on luggage for long trips and nice and light weight for backpacking. I've had absolutely no problems with it and use it quite frequently. |
__label__1 Occasional use and it broke! Don't waste your time or money!: I agree with someone below who said, "the clamp that allows extension in one of the legs broke, making it impossible to extend and lock the leg. It turns out the the inside pieces are cheap plastic!"I owned mine for less than a year, with maybe once a week use, and it busted the same way for me. Never again. I guess people buy Bogen for a reason, and that's the direction I'm going.The 343 does come with a lifetime warranty, so I'm enforcing the warranty coverage and will sell it on eBay once its returned to me from service. |
__label__1 Nice concept, poor quality: I bought the Velbon 343E when it first came out a couple of years ago. It was not long before the leg mechanism broke (internally). I had a very hard time getting the Velbon address to mail it back to for warranty work. I finally found the address after contacting the VP of Marketing at Velbon and mailed it back.After receiving the repaired unit it worked again for a few weeks and then broke again. It has been sitting in my drawer since. I am going to return it one more time.My advice: It's a great concept, but is of no value if it breaks this easily. I would avoid this product. |
__label__2 Greatest Zeppelin Transcriptions I've ever owned.: I originally bought this boxed set in 1992 for $85.00, and it was worth every penny. The lead guitar parts are almost all there, the tunings are accurate, and the tablature is complete and accurate. I lost my original set to an irate ex-girlfriend in 1999, and I have spend 7-years searching for a set of the now out-of-print books (2002-2009): that is how highly I think of them. I recently found a used set for approximately the same price I paid for my original set, and I jumped on them. I cannot recommend this set high enough. |
__label__1 Not two PAIRS in the "Pack of 2": I just got off a very frustrating call with Amazon Customer Service. I was surprised when I received these that there was only one pair of insoles in my order, despite the very prominent "Pack of 2" on the product page. After a lot of back and forth I was informed that "Pack of 2" refers to the fact that there are two insoles in the package, not two PAIRS. When I asked why all insole (or shoe, for that matter) listings don't state "Pack of 2" in their description the reply was "I don't know.". As far as the insoles go, they are fine, but definitely not worth $13 for a single pair. I'd go with the Pedtag washable ones instead. |
__label__2 Great sock substitute!: I've used these off and on for years and just found them on Amazon's website. These are used in place of socks. I really like them. You cut them to size. The instructions say to handwash but I've put mine in the washing machine and let them air dry. The terrycloth feels good and keeps your shoes from smelling. I highly recommend these. |
__label__1 Not great quality: The product is a very thin sheet of(maybe 1/8')foam with terry on one side. It comes with a cardboard guide with the cutouts of the different shoe sizes on it, you cut out the size you want and trace it onto the foam and cut it to fit your shoe. The foam is so thin however, that it shifts and bunches in your shoe throughout normal wear. Also the terry was not very absorbent which is why I bought the insolen in the first place. Would not recommend. |
__label__1 Pack of 2 misleading!: Misleading (pack of two) More precise labeling would be 1 pair. Pack of 2 sounds like 2 pairs.Insoles must be cut to size. This also should be on the outside label. |
__label__1 Only came with a single insole not two...: How in the world should one use a single insole? Even though it says pack of two (which I assumed meant at the very least an insole for each foot but the best two pairs) it came with one single insole. I guess if you don't mind getting stuff with no quality control that you can't use then this would be a good purchase. |
__label__1 2 pack vs. 2 insoles: I'm disappointed with this product because of the way it is advertised-BEWARE: although it clearly states 2-Pack, only 1 pack of two insoles come with each order. I think the advertising is deceptive as I, along with other people who ordered this product expected to receive 2 sets of insoles. Amazon should really consider changing what is stated in the ad. Not cool. |
__label__2 If lyric is important for you, you'll love this!: This is a wonderful album. The first half of it reminds me of John Denver... I suspect Reinhard Mey was influenced by American country music. Then the latter half of the album reminds me of Yves Duteil: thoughtful, well-written lyric with orthodoxically nice music... If words are important to you, or if you like John Denver or Yves Duteil, (or Die Prinzen, actually) you'll love this! |
__label__2 living meditation: This was a gift for someone else. Seemed to be a very good item based on reviews. Recipient seemed to be pleased. |
__label__1 progressive relaxation technique: This is progressive relaxation done in a hurried manner, not giving the subject enough time to experience "relaxation". I listened for "advice" on clearing the mind. There was none. For me to meditate, I had a very difficult time clearing away random thoughts. It is that way for many who attempt meditation and is a hurdle to be overcome. This is purely a progressive relaxation exercise done poorly, twice, top down with focus on breathing and bottom up with focus on light and then combining the two. This is a clumsy attempt to induce a hypnotic state. |
__label__2 Current, creative, thorough: A comprehensive resource guide to the many variables of nonprofit fundraising campaigns and events. Well-researched; well-written. Especially helpful was the resource section, which provided actual templates and word-for-word scripts -- very applicable. |
__label__2 Thought Provoking and Biased: Overall a good book but made me question historical accuracies. The book says that scicence oppressed certain scientific discoveries which I thought were oppressed by certain established religions of history. Good book and worth a read, especially if you like science history. |
__label__1 Malicious Anti-Science Screed: This book should be read out loud at parties, it's side-splittingly hilarious. Every insane idea anyone ever had that proves all science is fake unless it's mentioned in the Bible is blended into a fine sauce of insanity, inanity, and absolute certainty that children nurtured on such belief will never get into any decent university (but Bob Jones U will take them) and will never qualify for any employment much above sewer management, bean picking, or church janitor. A complete hoot! |
__label__2 Keeping control while teaching kids to be more responsible: Roni Jay's Family Matters: Parenting Tips From The Business World is a serious, highly practical-minded guide and advisory for parents from a business point of view - a perspective well worth investigating, for when it comes to building cooperations and teamwork, negotiating, and managing interpersonal relations, both families and businesses have a lot in common. Packed with tips, tricks, and techniques for keeping control while teaching kids to be more responsible, Family Matters is wonderfully illustrated with Peaco Todd's lively cartoons and an excellent supplementary resource for personal reading lists and community parenting reference collections. |
__label__1 a bit outdated...but then again IS old...: i am actually doing a report on rap and selected this book expecting some insight...i was surprised. it seems like some of this was even just put here to take up space; i was dissapointed, expecting something better from costello. a point of view not needed in most situations. of course, ten years ago it might have been close to adequate--now it seems totally inadequate to use in my report. |
__label__2 A Must Read Learning Application: Team at Work focuses on practical, innovative techniques for developing the interpersonal and technical skills of workteams. The 7 Keys to Success were invaluable in our journey from a traditional structure to a team-based organization. Even today, our teams revisit Teams at Work, thus maintaining the strong foundation Suzanne Zoglio helped us to achieve. An excellent read and learning application! |
__label__2 practical, insightful primer on team dynamics: As a former HR Director for a Fortune 200 firm, I found Dr. Zoglio's work practical, insightful and extremely helpful for OD specialists as well as line mgrs seeking to optimize productivity and contribution from the many teams they are entrusted w/ in todays work environment. The processes and guidelines offered in this piece reflect an in-depth understanding of and experience with the complex dynamics of matrixed team environments so prevalent in todays business environment. I recommend it highly ! |
__label__1 "Where's the beef?" Too simplistic.: I suppose if you don't know anything about teams this could be useful introductory reading. The book provides very general ideas neatly formated into 7-keys, all cutely starting with the letter "C". Each time I got to an area that might provide some guidance on "how to" for a topic, however the author left a little icon in the margin advertising her other Training Program. It felt like this book was a marketing tool for her other book. |
__label__1 GFR LIGHT: Like the other reviewer stated, this might be worse than 'All the Girls....' LP. If you are new to this band, first get the original live LP Grank Funk Live...pure high energy hard rock...Punk, garage and metal all rolled into one. Then get The 'Red Album' and thier first "On Time'. Those are the studio versions that make up most of the live LP mentioned above. 'Closer to Home' is their finest studio moment. After that, well they start losing their focus. 'E Pluribus Funk is OK and has a classic...'Lonelness' & 'Foot Stompin' Music'. Survial is musically different, but still interesting and has a couple of covers that are cool. After that, well it gets pretty thin. Phoenix & Shinin' On are marginally ok, Mark Don & Mel is a great comp package, then they really hit the top 40 suck path with We're an American Band. The Lp is ok, but it is so comerical and top 40 that looking back at their hard rock days, it got pretty depressing for old GFR fans. After that they should have called it off. |
__label__1 oh come on!!!!!!: I thought that "All the girls" was the worst GFR cd untill I heard this. It is soooo bad, come on guys, it sucks. Frank Zappa should be turning in his grave over this one. Take away everything that made GFR different, add some sub par FZ smoozy songwriting, smother in cheese and sit back to audience apathy. Yup, this really must have killed GFR stone dead, if you like this nothing can save you. |
__label__2 Amazing Swan Song: How is it that a band is on the way out and yet creates its best record before folding up its tent??? I can't explain it, but this disc is easily the best of GFR MK2. I consider the GFR MK 1 to be the power trio years up to the E Pluribus Funk record. They then become more of a pop band and achieve hitmaker status. The pairing of them with Frank Zappa was inspired. The songs are stellar, the playing tight and focused. If you are a fan of either the trio years or the AM radio ones, pick this up and give yourself a treat!!! |
__label__1 Grand Funk Sings, Dogs Bark: This album was clearly the motivation for the last minute of Guns & Roses "November Rain".Frank Zappa appears on this release playing a guitar solo, a reviewer here claimed it was Zappa's best, perhaps they missed the other 74 CDs Zappa released with guitar that was far superior to the solo here.Not even Zappa could save this album of howling and screams that made my dog bark in pain... there's a reason the band dissolved after this debacle and it's made clear when you listen why that happened. |
__label__2 big don brewer is my favorite drummer.: big don brewer is my favorite drummer and one of my top 5 singers, along with mark. i like the way they start out "pass it around". you can hear big don in the background making a sound of exhileration before he does the drum intro, and then right before he starts singing, you can hear him sock the sock symbol and triple tap the snare and then crash the symbol to introduce the lyrics: "i wish i had a place to stay..." then there's "release your love" which is one of grand funk's all time greatest rock n roll songs. grand funk is the american band. i've seen them live twice. need to make it thrice. grand funk railroad rocks me completely out. and after all these years i realize that i am, was and always will be, READY!! are you? |
__label__1 Not so great....:(: Not so great PC casino game. I wanted something fun to play, but the graphics are not that great. |
__label__2 Incredibly beautiful: This is moving music; if you can play "Amazing Grace" without tearing up, you're a better man than me. |
__label__2 Great book: I just stumbled across my copy of The Pocket Guide to Military Aircraft. I purchased my copy Feb 1987 for $7.50 while stationed in England. I now have a pretty nice collection of aviation related books, but this one stands out as one of my favorites. Best $7.50 I think I ever spent. This book was first printed in 1986. I carried this book with me during Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm, and one more deployment in 1994. After that,the info started to become dated, and the book was no longer current, but, it's still a fun to read. |
__label__1 Fair to Poor: A friend recommended this book to me. The best thing about the book is that it is short. Frankly, I did not find it all that inspirational, and thought the characters were fairly boring. I don't think that I could recommend to others. |
__label__1 Less Than 1 Star: I'm not sure what standards or criteria the prior reviewers used for their critique, but this book was just dreadful. I didn't find anything redeeming about it, and hope that others will spend their money more wisely than my mother did. |
__label__2 Good Product: I would really recommend this product to everybody. It has a good perfomance and besides that it has nvidia chipset and fopr the price it really worth. So it you can buy it, i can sure you won't be dissapointed. |
__label__2 funny as sin: i love this guys work. only one problem: sometimes you'll come across duplicate panels if you get all of his work as i have. |
__label__2 Duh.: What can you say? This guy never gets old. My 13 year old loves the Far Side and the rest of us can't resist reliving our favorites. |
__label__2 You gotta love the cat-eyed glasses women of Gary Larson!: The Far-Side cartoons of the brilliantly whacky Gary Larson have entertained our family for years. One of my favorites is the cat sitting below the tree with the huge nest full of baby birds with the cat thinking..."what to do, what to do?" If you ever find yourself in this quandary...pick up the closest Far-Side book and you will be hilariously captivated for hou |
__label__2 Great funny fanatic is Gary Larson: Gary Larson is the funniest drawer I have ever seen. I got the desk 2001 calendar and got hooked on the comics right away. I now own Far side galleries 4 & 5. I am looking forward to buying more books. Buy this book if you enjoy insane yet funny sophisticated comics. Jake S. |
__label__2 I AM A LARSEN JUNKIE!!! I NEED MORE!!!: Larsen is the world's greatest cartoonist. Too bad he retired. I have envelopes filled with his cartoons clipped out of the newspaper (10+ years ago!) that I still can't bear to throw away. So I suppose this book was a good idea. It will take up less space than several bulging envelopes.For younger people who can't remember his cartoons in the paper every day, you need to hurry up and start collecting his books so you can always be within arm's length of a smile or a laugh.Also, I love the story about the "Jane Goodall Cartoon"--George Stancliffe |
__label__2 it's perfect: This book is really funny. Gary Larson has really outdone himself this time! One I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. Then when I finally did, I was halfway through the book! Everyday I read a comic to refresh my humor in the morning. Ha-ha |
__label__2 brilliant: Gary Larson is by far the most genius, the most innovative cartoonest ever to hit the world. This gallery has a forward by Robin Williams and tons of Larson's best work. You can't not love his sense of humor (and definitely check out the Prehistory of the Far Side). |
__label__1 MOST TOXIC INK I EVER ENCOUNTERED IN PRINTED MATERIAL: About one minute of exposure to the inside print ink (could be paper too, but was probably the ink) gave me a migraine within a couple of minutes, that lasted more than a 24-hour day.I am severely chemically sensitive to multiple varieties of chemicals (mostly man-made synthetics), but was never exposed to ink this toxic, not in newsprint, laser copy, or anything printed.It is printed in China, but so are a lot of innocuous books I've read. i.e. Maybe I just got a batch wreaking of shipping container fumigant or some other contaminant in unsealed boxes. - who knows? Like everything else, there is good Chinese and bad Chinese products, but who knows what's in the bad stuff. The country is teaming with toxic waste.Plant-based ink doesn't bother me, but even petro-based ink never gave me a migraine this severe, lasting this long. |
__label__2 includes cunieform characters...: Love this book for it's inclusion of the actual cunieform characters and some reference to location. As a grammar, it is extremely difficult to follow as far as the language itself, but makes an attempt at getting the horse in the harness, great for comparing to other lexicons that include cunieform characters. |
__label__2 The Skier's Edge: This is a great book for the seasoned skier wanting to understand more on how the body-skis-works together on snow when applying different movements, pressure and so on. Good insights comparing racing techniques to recreational skiing. As a ski instructor I can use this book as a reference guide. |
__label__2 Best David Lamotte Album: I have a bunch of Lamotte and this is my very favourite. Every song is different and holds such meaning. It is lyrical, even ethereal, and yet so current. This album is an absolute must for all fans. And it has "Shadows"! 'Nuff said. |
__label__2 Album of beautiful rarities: If you think that opera singers shouldn't dabble in a world of popular songs,listen to this:expensively produced,well orchestrated and beautifully sang,with lots of never-heard songs and verses.Since the first moment I heard Dawn Upshaw in a friend's house (it was her "I Wish It So",which I have to had right now that moment,almost stealed it) I loved her style and this album was again another discovery.I'm not easy to please musicaly,but cannot find a single flaw on this album.Duke Vernon was a composer overshadowed by Gershwins,Porter,Rodgers and Hart and other celebrities of his time,remebered only for his beautuful "April in Paris" and "Autumn in New York".I knew that Dawn is a magnificent singer,but she gave us a wonderful gift with this album:the whole new generation of listeners are discovering music of this half-obscure,moody and impressionistic russian guy. |
__label__2 Don't Wait Until It's Too Late: This book is very informative and current. It is an eye-opening read, a must for every christian. Don't wait until it's too late to make a the right decision about eternity. Be informed. This book will help you to understand the events that are being orchestrated to usher in the one world government that the bible predicts. It is happening while America "is mesmerized by silly TV sitcoms, unending sports programs, materialism, and the Internet."America is in a position, through President Clinton's Executive Orders to be given away to the United Nations. This will end life as we know it and put an end to the freedom that we have enjoyed.Buy this book, read it, share it and be ready! |
__label__2 Ain't that the truth: Speaking as someone with two children (ages 11 and 13, going on 20 and 37 respectively), I think this book nails the experience. From the goo children emit to the sulks they pitch at you, this one will make you laugh about it -- even if you can't change the facts of life. |
__label__2 fun book, great gift: Purchased this book for my brother as he and his wife were preparing for their first child. Humorous book with truthful undertones. I made a daddy diaper belt for him as illustrated on the front cover and stuck the book inside one of the tool belt pouches. It made for a great gift. |
__label__1 No toy equals one star: I first purchased this book over a year ago ... and before I know it all of Tulsa is talking about how much I like babies. I deeply resent the invasion of my privacy. It is well known that I do not care for babies or "Daddy books" and only purchased my copy as an insulting gag gift for a friend of mine who has since decided against adoption. What's worse, unlike "Baby" Fulghum's other books, this one did not even come with one of those free toys. Total rip. |
__label__2 Yo Gabba Gabba Clubhouse: My 2 year old daughter absolutely loves this Yo Gabba Gabba dvd. It keeps her entertained and dancing for hours. I highly recommend this dvd for any Yo Gabba Gabba lover!!! |
__label__1 If you are a Deaf parent do not buy this DVD not closed caption: I bought this dvd for my son however the dvd that i recieved was not closed caption despite the fact it was clearly label as closed captions.very disappointment in Viacom and Nickelodeon and the closed caption provider for not doing the job rightyo gabba gabba is one of my son's favorite brand. |
__label__2 I like it, but I liked the oldest videos better.: The songs on this video are a little more hyper than the old videos (not my favorite, so that's why I rated 4 out of 5), but of course my daughter likes it, so I can't complain. They changed the costume's anatomy, therefore now they can dance better, so you will see better dancing routines on this video. We love Yo Gabba Gabba, and we collect all the dvds. |
__label__2 yo gabba gabba: has definately served its purpose in keeping my granddaughter happy and content while i would do little chores inbetween play time, although i have it memorized also.... |
__label__2 Great Movie: My nieces love Yo Gabba Gabba, so this dvd was a instant buy. You may have not heard of Yo Gabba Gabba before but its never to late to start.Good one to add to a children's movie collection. |
__label__1 If i could give a zero i would: my 2 year old is absolutely in love with Yo Gabba Gabba! Purchased this dvd for him, and he was sooo excited! Went to put it in the dvd player, and realized it was cracked... Wouldn't even work. Never had the chance to watch it. Such a rip off. I was so disappointed in this purchase. |
__label__2 Excellent WWII reference book.: If you are a WWII History buff, you will love this book. One of the best references on that topic that we have found. My lady and myself have studied many books and videos on WWII and this is one of the best.Hard to find but worth the hunt. |
__label__2 A Realistic Outlook: This is a great product. I am a very athletic woman, and go to the gym about 5 times a week, for 30 or 45 minutes to do cardio. I address my problem cellulite areas (butt, thinghs) by working them out and then applying the cream post shower. After using it for a month, I have noticed a big difference. My dimples are melting away, and while they are not completely gone, I will continue to use the cream (I didn't see any patches), since at the very least it makes my skin soft. Although hey, soft skin means it is more elastic which means cellulite is going away, so there ya go. I would and do recommend this to anyone, but remember you need to actually leave your couch and put forth more effort than rubbing in lotion and hoping for a miracle. |
__label__1 Terrible Rash: I was using the product twice a day for 5 days, and on the 5th day had bad itching on both my thighs where I had been applying the gel. On both legs I had gotten huge bumps like large bug bites. They appeared in clusters, one leg had about 10 bumps and the other 4. I usually do not react this way to new products. This is just my experience to it and my skins reaction, but I had never seen anything like it! I stopped using product and they are slowly going away. |
__label__1 Doesn't really work.....: I am on my second tube of the gel, and this is my 4th week of use. I use it twice a day on most days, sometimes just once a day. It has made my skin very very soft....like silk...but the appearance of reduced cellulite is very minimal. I can hardly see a difference, if any. |
__label__1 It didn't work for me :(: I used two bottles of Nivea over a two month period. I can't see any improvement at all. I was really hoping it would help. It smells good though! |
__label__1 Crappy Product. Does NOT Work!: This product is junk just like all the other cellulite creams on the market. It does NOT work. Save your money. I am slim and have minimal cellulite. I exercise and eat right and the product did not make one once of difference in my cellulite. The patches are a joke too and you only get a few in a box and they are supposed to be used regularly with the gel over several weeks. You'd be out of alot of money fooling with this. There is no cure for cellulite. If there were, all of the rich and famous people who have money for expensive cosmetic treatments would not have it! |
__label__1 Completely useless!: I purchased this three weeks ago and began using it as instructed. I chose the 2 times per day route. I find myself looking no different as well as having zits on my backside and my legs. I know that the gel is causing them because they show up within 30 minutes of application. I've gone a few days without using it, and when I start up again, I get more zits (after having them go away when I stop using the product). I rarely ever get zits on my backside. I'm pretty sure this crap is actually clogging my pores instead of doing me any good. Waste of time and money. |
__label__2 It really makes a difference!: I also saw this on the Tyra Banks show, I waited a little while to check out the reviews on this then decided to just give it a try. I am a fairly overweight woman but I have been eating healthy, drinking lots of water and exercising no less than 3 times a week. I passed on the patches till I gave the cream a try. Well I tried to use it twice a day once in the morning and once at night...and most of the time I did. I have noticed about a 50% reduction in the cellulites appearance and firmer skin. This is no miracle worker but It really helps. I just finished my 1st bottle and I'm getting more and this time I'm gonna try the patches too. I say for $10.00 it's worth a try. |
__label__1 NO DIFFERENCE AFTER 1 MONTH: This product is like all the others. It simply DOES NOTHING. I am 5'9" and a size 2, but unfortnately have cellulite on my upper thighs and butt. I guess it is just heredity. I work out 3 times a week doing Pilates and feel great but can't get rid of the cellulite. So if this stuff is going to work, it's going to work for me, right? I rushed to the store after the Tyra Banks show and purchased the cream only. Thought the patches looked like too much work and cream said it would work, so since I have only a little cellulite, gave the cream a try. I intentionally did one leg and butt cheek only so I could clearly see if there was any difference. Difference was ZERO! No effect, complete waste of money. Tyra must be getting paid to push it. I'm going to call the company and ask for my money back. |
__label__1 Does nothing at all: Thank God I only paid 10 bucks for this cream. I don't have a lot of cellulite so I thought for sure I would see the results. Besides, I work out every day.Well, I have to say I saw nothing. I believe it's a psychological thing - you'll only see something if you WANT to see something. |
__label__1 doesn't work: bunch of crap,such a complete waste of money.I bought a few bottles of this stuff,what a joke,just exercise the damn cellulite away,lol. |
__label__2 Nice scent....applied easily.: I bought this gel to use along with the patches, since I wasn't pleased with the patches I'm using the gel on it's own. I don't know if there has been any difference in my cellulite, but then, I'm not following the exercise part of the program which I'm sure would help on it's own, without the gel. Even if there's no remarkable change on it's own, the gel has a nice scent and dries smooth on my skin. |
__label__1 Does NOT work!: Total waste of money. I have used this product twice a day for a month and I see ZERO difference in the appearance of cellulite. I really wanted it to work but it did NOT work at all! I think the good reviews on this product must be fake. I am better off just using cheap lotion instead. Do not waste your money on this. |
__label__1 Work my A................: after seeing the show on Tyra Banks, ran out and bought one at cvs. used up a whole tube already and still, nada.total waste of $15. |
__label__1 The powerful scent had me giving up before I could give it a chance to work.: I ordered this product based on the glowing reviews that I saw on Amazon as well as a few other sites. Excited to have some help for bikini season, I tried it before bed on the day that it arrived. I didn't use a lot either since it was the first time using it. This stuff has a very powerful floral scent. I'm allergic to scents like lavender and lilac. The scent gave me a headache within a few minutes and my boyfriend asked what the awful smell was even though I was on the other side of the room. I wasn't about to tell him that I was trying out new cellulite cream, so I just told him I was trying new lotion out and I vowed to never use it again. Usually, I'll stick with a product with a bad smell if it works, but the smell of the lotion was too much for me to try it again. |
__label__1 thomas and friends on site with thomas: This was a total disappointment, the case was orginal, however the disc inside of it was a homemade disc, not the orginal one, my grandson is disappointed because he recognizes what he wants to watch by the picture on the disc not a plain one |
__label__2 Very Comprehensive: This truly is a very complete book on sausage making. Much of it is devoted to the craft of sausage making and is often geared to the professional level. A couple of areas that I didn't care for was the use of products only available from his mail order business. While an experienced sausage make can probably figure out readily available brands to substitute, new sausage makers may feel they have to order these ingredients from him. It sometimes feels that the purpose of the book is to promote his business. The other issue is the poor editing of the book. There are many typos that I found irritating. This is a good reference book for someone who already has the basics down. Someone new to the process may be a overwhelmed at the extra info that just isn't needed for the average person to make good sausage. |
__label__2 Very Detailed Book On Sausage Making: I am just getting started in sausage making and was looking for a guide for making sausage at home. After reading all the reviews here, I purchased this book. It is a fairly large volume and includes a lot of detail on equipment, meat selection, meat handling, spices, recipes and techniques. There are many recipes for most of the types of sausages that readers would be interested in. The batch sizes are pretty large for the home sausage maker but can be scaled. There is a lot of detail on smoking and smoking equipment. The reason that I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is that in my opinion, it is a bit too detailed for the average home sausage maker. Much of the book deals with details that a meat processor may need to know but not needed for the average home sausage maker that is only going to process a couple of pounds of meat at a time. That being said, the recipes are straightforward and should be easy enough for anyone to follow. |
__label__1 not for the home sausage maker: This book would be fine if your goal was to make tons of sausage. The home sausage maker would not generally have the tools, the equipment or be able to find the cuts of meat that are used in the book. If your goal is to make 10-25lbs of sausage at a time and to know all the laws dealing with meat processing then you may find this book helpful |
__label__2 Handy guide for a small-scale butcher or more: Being a meat technologist and having spent twenty years in the meat seasoning business I bought this book for curiosity and to enlarge my library of professional cookbooks. I couldn't have made a better choice. The Kutases (originally Latvian?) have a very practical approach in their book. Anyone who plans to set up a butchershop can benefit from their handy hints. On the other hand even the seasoning suggestions for a variety of sausages seem useful. |
__label__2 Sausage Bible: Has it all. Very good for deer hunter beginner sausage maker. Well worth the cost. Beats wasting a bunch of time and meat. Buy it. |
__label__2 This is exactly what I wanted: As an expanding novice sausage maker I find this book to be excellent. I started with with Grandma's hand grinder/stuffer and have upgraded over the years due to ease and volume. I am greatly looking forward to putting these recipes to the test and on the table. This book explains everything I knew, thought I knew, wished I knew or didn't know I didn't know about sausage making. Highly reccomended and enjoyed. |
__label__2 Great book: This is a great book. lots of information and tips for sausage making. I am very happy with it. and recommend it to anyone looking to make sausage. |
__label__2 Best sausage book, period: Very informative on smoking meat, making sausage, meat cures (and why they are needed), lots of info on casings, great recipes. I hunt a lot, take 3 or 4 deer a year and make 20-30 lbs of sausage. This book is excellent. Recommendation; don't b a cheap sausage stuffer or cheap grinder, you'll just end up buying better ones. The Sausage Maker stuffers are excellent quality (I have the 5# one) and Cabela's commercial grinders can't be beat; just watch for sales. I use the smallest, 1/2 horsepower, and can grind a whole deer without any trouble. |
__label__2 The Bible of sausages: I read about this book prior to getting it. It is EVERYTHING you need to make sausages and other preserved meats such as hams. It leads you step by step through the processes from simple to very complex. It also explains WHY you are doing each step. It's written by a master sausage maker who has now passed. Evidently family has taken over the responsibility of updating the book as it is very relevant. I have tried other books that are outdated and refer to chemicals and equipment that no longer exist.This is the BOOK YOU NEED. You will find that for some of the more complex meats, you need very precise control of temperature and humidity so you'll have to avoid those but there are PLENTY of recipes to use and experiment with. It's a great book. |
__label__2 The Sausage Bible: This is the ONLY and most thorough sausage making reference you will ever need. I bought 2.... One for my book shelf and one to keep in my sausage making storage boxes. |
__label__2 a true must have: if you are at all thinking of getting into sausage making or curing meats, you really owe it to yourself to have this as your main referance. very easy to unstand and you will learn the true craft of that is sausage making and curing |
