No Problems | I have owned this TV fo 6 Months now. It worked perfectly from day one with no problems. It has a superb picture even in SDTV mode. I don't understand all the problems the other reviewers report. Sometimes reading the instruction book really helps. | No Problems I have owned this TV fo 6 Months now.

Rock and ROLL | This book is awesome. I have used the methods described with fantastic success. In over twenty sessions at the tables I lost my table stake only once and that was because I deviated from my game plan. I usually double and even triple my table stake of $300.00. A great days income for an hour of fun. Use these methods and improve your game. | Rock and ROLL This book is awesome. I have used the methods described with fantastic success.

Intense wordplay and sparse beats | This group seems to have released very little material, which is a shame, because they certainly had the talent for more. Densely packed verses and simple, snappy drum beats make this an album which lives up to its sci-fi namecheck. You get the feeling, as in the movie "Alien," that you can't shake something that's just around the corner. Darkness preoccupies the writers as they spin tales of paranoia and tension. Is it really that kind of world, and if so, is it always going to be that way? Hear for yourself. | Intense wordplay and sparse beats This group seems to have released very little material, which is a shame, because they certainly had the talent for more.

It does tend to have a little more static interference than just using it on battery power, but not all the time and not enough to make it annoying. | Great, but some static interference Product does everything it says.

A Disappointment | My five year old son has been wanting this toy for months. He was so excited when he received it for his birthday. But to both our disappointments, the toy became a nightmare. Certain pieces fall off with a simple touch plus it's constantly falling over. Additionally, we couldn't find a car that worked well with it. Some were too light and some were too heavy. In both cases we had a hard time getting the cars to launch up the ramp. Basically, you're forced to purchase the cars that go with it separately. They are not included. After a couple of frustrating days of trying to play with it, my five year old son suggested we get rid of it. | A Disappointment My five year old son has been wanting this toy for months.

peice of crap | my five year old begged for this toy and i resisted until two days before christmas and gave in because he kept telling everyone it was the only thing he wanted. It is poorly made and keeps falling apart. The cars have to be pushed along the track and do not go automatically on their own. The slime is sticky and what do you do with it after. He got two minutes of enjoyment and now it will go in the back of the closet never to be played with again. | peice of crap my five year old begged for this toy and i resisted until two days before christmas and gave in because he kept telling everyone it was the only thing he wanted.

Hate this toy!! AVOID SLIMCANO | Every year I say I am not buying any hotwheels items, even though my son always askes for them. First it was The Fireball, it sucked, then Octoblast, it sucked, last year we got TRex which was slightly better, and then this year the worst- SLIMCANO. This toy falls apart as soon as you touch it,I put the whole thing together and my son starts to play with it and it starts falling apart, the "slim" is SOOOOOO messy,it ended up all over my carpet and house. As another reviewer wrote you have to clean this up every time you use it, what a pain!(By the way we did not put it away the last time we played with it, and the slim is all dried up) I love Matchbox products, this year we got The Rocket Park and it is a great toy, sturdy, durable, and hardly any assembly.

TOTAL JUNK - DON'T BUY! | Don't be swayed by your kids' exposure to the heavy marketing push for this toy. It's made of such flimsy plastic that there's no way it could stand up to any child's touch. It even falls apart when an adult tries to use it. You'd might as well tear your money in little strips (which would be sturdier). Run from Slimecano as fast as you can! | TOTAL JUNK - DON'T BUY!

JUNK-CANO! | We set up Slimecano on Christmas morning, and are ready to write to Mattel. They really "slimed" out on the fabrication of this thing. It is so poorly made, there is not one car that has made it around the track yet. The tracks bend like licorice, like there is some shortage of decent plastic in the world or something, the cars can't even get to the top of the track with their provided launcher, and the slime is on everything! You are supposed to wipe this down after each use.. hmmm.. how long is that going to take with all the crevices and parts on this thing? I want my MONEY BACK!!! This toy is worth about 9.99 in my opinion, not the 40- I paid for it! My son is so mad at this toy, the tracks keep falling apart he is just disgusted at this point. Definitely next week's garage sale giveaway...They really failed making this one... | JUNK-CANO! We set up Slimecano on Christmas morning, and are ready to write to Mattel.

A piece of junk-don't waste your money! | My 5 year old son was so excited to receive this as a Christmas gift but we were extremely disappointed once it was assembled. The track pieces do not SNAP hard together so they are constantly separating. The crane falls off, the volcano head is too difficult for a child to put back together, the whole toy tips over very easily. The slime is alright as long as you are closely supervising the whole time if you aren't then be ready for a mess! This toy has been made so chep that it should be selling for only $10. I can't believe that we paid almost $40 for it! We pack the toy away because it was falling apart so much. My son just took it back out (3 months later) to try it again and was even more disappointed than before!

You Can't Pull Up and the Balls Don't Blast | I bought this toy for my 9month old son. He is excellent at standing and has been pulling himself up and "cruising" for a month now. This toy couldn't support his weight at all. He is about 22lbs now. As soon as he reached to pull himself up, it toppled over. I found that the front of the box doesn't say what the toy "really" does. It doesn't allow your child to pull up and the balls definitely don't "blast" out of it. It also takes awhile to assemble. I definitely don't think this toy is worth buying, especially at the price they're charging. Don't waste your time assembling it, if you aren't sure about keeping it. It's impossible to take apart and return. | You Can't Pull Up and the Balls Don't Blast I bought this toy for my 9month old son.

Not as great as most reviews said. . . | I read most of the reviews on this particular toy which made me purchase it for my 8 month old (I normally find these review to be right on) but when I recieved this toy and put it together I was not impressed! I think the idea is a good one but it just doesn't work!! The balls get stuck on the bottom turn and when I finally push them through they all come out of the same spot! So much for the surprise of which side they will come out of. I called the 800 # as soon as I noticed that it just didn't work & they basically had no helpful advice. They said I may have got a defective one (I'd say!) I even took it apart and put it together again to make sure it was done correct. It looks exactly like the picture on the box but it just doesn't work. I will be returning it to the store! | Not as great as most reviews said. . .

Not Recommended | Unstable, flimsy and improperly weighted are words that I would use to describe this product. We returned this item less than 24hrs after buying and assembling it. Our 7-month old, who's been standing with assistance for several months, was easily able to tip the Ball Blast over despite weighing only about 20lbs. The music and sound effects are fun and will surely put a smile on any child's face but the flimsy construction of the lower, yellow ramps are not conducive to bearing a young one's weight. The balls are a nice size for small hands and the adjustable volume control is a good feature. But the product does not live up to expectations and the quality is well below that of other Fisher-Price toys we own. Do think twice about buying this product as an aid to help you child pull up to a standing position. It's great when your baby is standing but the product's imbalance can lead to leaning and tipping over when used as intended. | Not Recommended Unstable, flimsy and improperly weighted are words that I would use to describe this product.

THIS TOY IS FUN FOR THE KIDS!! | My twin 12 month old babies just received this for their first birthday and absolutely love it!! The music is very upbeat and motivates my babies to dance and the expression on their faces when interacting with it is priceless.My children are not yet walking but are able to pull themselves up very confidently. I would like to say that parents should realize that although this toy IS called "Pull Up" Ball Blast, common sense tells us that it is not intended to have the weight and stability of a piece of furniture like a couch. Once your child is able to confidently pull to a stand up position using their legs, they will be fine. As always, supervision is the key keeping in mind children's development rates vary. Some children will be fine playing with it at 9 mos. and some maybe a little later.For those who were disappointed in the toy and didn't follow the manufacturers age guidelines, shame on you!! | THIS TOY IS FUN FOR THE KIDS!!

Better for cats than babies! | We bought this for our 9 month old granddaughter because some other parents had recommended it highly. Unfortunately, we are somewhat disappointed in it. As other reviewers have noted, it was a pain to put together, and it still doesn't seem to fit together quite right. (Maybe this is why the balls always seem to come out the same opening instead of all four.) Also, as other reviewers have noted, it is not very stable; we haven't had a real mishap since it's on carpet, but it's definitely not really designed for pulling-up babies. She likes the goofy sounds it plays, but she hasn't figured out how to put the balls into the openings yet. Also, better than half the time when I put the balls through, no music, sounds or lights are triggered. I discovered that you have to really push the ball against the triggering mechanism to make it play. In short, the cats have more fun chasing the balls around the house than the baby does playing with this toy!! | Better for cats than babies!

TERRIBLE! | My husband and I really don't like this toy. First of all it is not very sturdy - my 8 month old easily tips it as she tries to pull up to standing. And it slides across the floor as she tries to pull up on it. Worst of all it is designed poorly as the the balls get stuck in the track as they spiral down - very annoying. It's too bad as this toy has potential. My daughter loves to stand and play and likes the silly music the toy plays. But now she only plays with the balls the toy came with. | TERRIBLE!

Get's my babies attention, but isn't safe at all. | My 10 month old gets a kick out of all of the noise this toy makes. I don't think the toy is appropriate for children who are not able to stand up without holding on to something for support. I always have to keep one hand on the toy to make sure it doesn't tip over. The entire toy is very unstable. I also think it is also difficult for a child to grasp what to do to the ball once it spins off the middle of the toy. My friend has a 22 month old son who didn't even understand that the ball needs to be pushed down so it would go down the looping slide. I like that my daughter gets excited when the toys makes noises, but I don't like that I have to supervise her play time with it 100%. When I go out of the room, the toy comes with me to prevent injury to my daughter. I'm really suprised the toy hasn't been pulled from the market. | Get's my babies attention, but isn't safe at all.

Great for "pulling up" | As soon as my granddaugher began crawling, she also began to pull herself up on the furniture. I was looking for something w/out sharp edges and fairly stable that she could pull up on and not tip over very easily and discovered the Standup Ball Blaster. It works perfectly for this purpose and she loves it. Whenever she spots it, she gets a huge grin on her face and makes a beeline toward it. It holds her attention longer than any other toy so far. | Great for "pulling up" As soon as my granddaugher began crawling, she also began to pull herself up on the furniture.

Proof that Brits can't rap | Some of the lyrics are funny and occasionally clever and I like the British slang, but the delivery, oh my god. No flow, no rhythm, the dude just talks in an incredibly annoying, whiny voice. And the backing tracks? The beats are less entertaining than listening to a dryer loaded with shoes. I'm afraid that Mike Skinner's rythmic sense doesn't lend itself very well to rap/hip hop. Almost all of the backing tracks are stiff and mechanical with no groove or syncopation. As with another reviewer, my initial reaction was to laugh out loud at the general awfulness of this steaming pile, but then I remembered I paid money for said pile and that killed some of the humor. This truly sucks in such novel and humorous ways that I'll give it two stars rather than one. It's just not my cuppa teenage chav crap. | Proof that Brits can't rap Some of the lyrics are funny and occasionally clever and I like the British slang, but the delivery, oh my god.

Weak | After listening to this album it seems Mike Skinner is resting on his laurels. The laurels of a great first album that had a great reception in the UK and abroad.This doesn't sound like an album that is out to prove the musical skill of the streets. This is punch the clock/satisfy the contract. It may be that as an American I'm not in touch with the current trendy sound in the UK which if this album won so much acclaim, must be stripped down simplified audio with spoken word lyrics. Not the lyrical style that was an anomaly over original beats that was truly the Original Pirate Material.I think the idea of telling a story sequentially track by track over an album is a good and original idea, but maybe the first priority should have been making good music. | Weak After listening to this album it seems Mike Skinner is resting on his laurels.

Being able to buy it online is great! | {'label': '5 stars', 'score': 0.5603562593460083} | Perfect | 0.560356 |
Ridiculously expensive | I love this coffee and have been drinking it for many years. While it is getting impossible to find at stores around where I live, I would never dream of spending this kind of money for 6 cans. My Lord, the most expensive place sells this for $4.02 a can. Why would you spend twice that amount here?? Crazy!! If you all have lots of disposable income, I can send you a list of some good causes that need your money more than these sellers who are ripping you off. | Ridiculously expensive I love this coffee and have been drinking it for many years.

Quite a Disappointment | I bought this item after searching for quite some time to find a copy of the original off-Broadway cast album. While anticipating that this version would differ from the album I really wanted, I was rather dismayed to find that it is in all respects quite inferior. In my mind, the main problem lies with the choice of Diane Langton for the female lead. Her voice, while pleasant enough, is a poor substitute for Gretchen Cryer's. Add to that some questionable directorial choices (the a capella version of "Lonely Lady") and you have a less-than-mediocre product. | Quite a Disappointment I bought this item after searching for quite some time to find a copy of the original off-Broadway cast album.

Older version | This is an older version of the power supply. While it is totally compatable, the cable coming from the transfomer to the plug is a smaller gauge wire. I needed a replacement quickly and this served the purpose. | Older version This is an older version of the power supply.

Used with 1st gen BP200 (made in 2002) | This is much better built than the adapter that came with my BP200. I was able to fix the original adapter though, so I plan on using the new one outside of my house. The new version doesn't get as warm as the old one after several hours of use. Using thicker wire helps with that.I found it at a great price, so I opted for the expedited delivery to get the thing on my hands quickly. | Used with 1st gen BP200 (made in 2002) This is much better built than the adapter that came with my BP200.

Worst of three Glacier hike books | This one seemed like the friendliest and easiest to use, but it ended up being the most inaccurate, the worst organized, and the most incomplete. For example, one famous trail was described as "easy" and "7.5 miles round trip." In fact, it was 15 miles round trip; and describing 15 miles in any terrain, much less an alpine one, as 'easy' is a curious choice, and one I found myself grumbling about several times around miles 11 and 12.Erik Molvar's book proved to be far more trustworthy. | Worst of three Glacier hike books This one seemed like the friendliest and easiest to use, but it ended up being the most inaccurate, the worst organized, and the most incomplete.

Glacier Day Hikes - Two Thumbs Up! | This book was right on the money as far as how to find the trail head, the length and difficulty of a trail and estimated time on the trail. It describes not only the destination, but what you'll experience along the way. The photos are great, but don't do justice to actually being there. | Glacier Day Hikes - Two Thumbs Up!

Simple way to describe feelings to a little one. | My 5 and 3 year old love this book therefore I love it also. It is very simple with great artwork. I would recommend it to someone who is trying to teach a little one how to use words for emotions. My girls also like trying to make the faces. | Simple way to describe feelings to a little one.
