IPhone 3G used's review (Flameless Battery Tealights) 『~If you like burning candles, but are afraid of accidentally burning the house down, buy these candles. ~If you hate throwing half burned down candles away, buy these candles. ~If you want to light a path to the bathroom when there's a power outage, buy these candles.』
(not restaurant quality) 『These are OK, but definitely not the same quality that I have seen in restaurants. The flickering and color isn't as realistic. And of the first three I tried, one failed (broken switch) and the other two work but are very different brightnesses.
They all had CR2032 batteries pre-inserted, so this adds to the value.』
(pretty good but incosistent color...) 『I bought 48 of these (4 packs of 12) and was a little surprised to find that the color of the "flame" differs greatly even in the same box of 12. Some are very light yellow almost white (which look the most realistic) while others were very orangy (looked faked) but they do flicker very gently like a real candle...definitly need frosted votives holders...I would have bought the fake candles that come with the holders if I had known - now I have to buy separate holders.』
(Great candles! Great Company) 『I really love these candles it looks cool with alot of them lit at once.
I didn't receive my original order so i wrote them an email. They contacted me the nest morning and reshipped my order. I had it in hand the next day!
A++ Would recommend!!』
(Fantastic) 『These are the thing to buy if you light devotional candles for any altar - be it Christian or Buddhist (we have both in our house)
They have the stlye, look and warm image of votive candles without the smoke or worry about fire.
』 『Note on candle quality: Know what you're buying. Not all LED candles flicker (like those sold in closeout stores and dollar stores.) If having a realistic candle effect is important, make sure you buy "flickering" candles such as these. When you need to replace the CR2032 batteries, avoid spending $9 per battery in your local hardware or convenience store. We sell Lithium CR2032 replacement button batteries for $2.99 / five pack (that's less than 60 cents per battery.) Search on Amazon for B000RJODBQ』

Calphalon
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Love It!!) 『Hey, it's Calphalon - there's nothing better. I have used Calphalon for more than 10 years, and it cooks better than anything else. The Calphalon Commercial seems thicker and stronger than other Calphalon. While few things stick to any Calphalon, even fewer things stick to Calphalon Commercial. I don't expect to use this 12-quart stockpot every day or even every week, but when I have a lot of people to feed, it will be worth its weight in gold.』
(de-anodized on 3rd batch of sauce....HOWEVER) 『I am a very happy owner of way too many pieces of Calphalon, hard anodized and stainless. This pot has a good weight (not too heavy), small enough base to fit on a standard burner and still get a pan on the burner in front, if needed. The 3rd batch of home grown tomato sauce took about a 4" circle of anodizing off on the bottom.
Spoke with customer service at Calphalon, and as it happed SO quickly, they are sending a post paid return. AND, since this is discontinued...it will be replaced with a 12 qt. contemporary stainless (can you spell dishwasher?) So, folks, at the amazing Friday price - for a little inconvenience I'll have a great stock pot for next season!
Other cooks have not reported this outcome, so I do think it's a bad batch from China, but they absolutely stand by their warranty.
So, yes, buyer beware - -but, if you're paying attention here....there's no way to lose. These are great products at a fabulous Amazon price.』
(Only Calphalon One is made in US according to their customer service) 『I was interested in these pieces at these prices but I do not want to products made in China when I can avoide it and so I called the 800 number for Calphalon and was told that only the "One" lines are made in Ohio. Everything else they make is produced overseas, including the copper pots and the cast iron.
』
(Glad I got it!) 『First, the only two negatives: 1) It does seem to scratch more easily than my Circulon Hard-Anodized Non-Stick Hi-Low System pots -- a casual encounter with a faucet will disclose a fine, thin streak of aluminum; 2) I used the pot two or three times before obtaining Calphalon's Dormond cleaner and wound up with black-on-black watermark type stains on the inside of the bottom and the inside of the lid. Subsequently, a half-dozen scrubbings with Dormond removed all the stains.
Now, the good part. I wanted a 12 qt stock pot and I like using this one. It seems to distribute heat well. The cover handle works well for me and never seems to get to warm for my bare hand. The side handles feel sturdy, well positioned, and enable me to heft the pot without strain. Even full, I feel I have good, adequate control when moving it about. The lid fits simply and well.
I favor it, now, over my clad, triple-ply 8 qt. stainless steel stockpot.
Lastly, I had occasion to telephone Calphalon customer service. My call was answered swiftly and the service was delivered pleasantly -- something increasingly rare these days. 』
(Just Love It) 『We have purchased one of these pans some time ago on the Friday Sale pages. The price was great and it works like you would expect a product from Calphalon would work. We use it so much and like it so well, that we have purchased one of these pans for our daughter to celebrate her divorce.』 『The best stocks are simmered slowly over steady, low heat. Calphalon's 12-qt. Stock Pot is crafted of heavy-gauge aluminum to cook ingredients evenly, at just the right temperature. Stick-resistant surface won't react with most foods. Includes flat, anodized lid.』 『Calphalon Commercial hard-anodized pans are made for the more serious cook who is looking for kitchenware built to last a lifetime. This large-size, 12-quart stockpot is good for soup, stews, and pasta, and its heavy-gauge aluminum construction also stands up to deep frying. The looped handles are easy to grip and stay cooler than you might expect, thanks to V-shaped splits where they meet the pan, but it's still a good idea to keep hot pads nearby. The nonporous and nonreactive hard-anodized surface resists sticking and doesn't affect the flavor or color of food. It's also tough enough to handle stainless-steel utensils and vigorous whisking. Unlike pans with plastic or wood handles, the extremely sturdy all-metal construction provides you the flexibility to take the pan to the oven or broiler. But do remember to hand wash your Calphalon pans--dishwasher detergents are bad for the finish and their use voids the lifetime warranty. --Dale Steinke』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Love it !!!) 『I was attracted to this by the price. I was hesitant about it being "Remanufactured". But after looking at other reviews I decided to purchase it.This was to be a gift for my wife. We received the blue one, it looks brand new! The only hiccup was priming the pump. The instructions say to use the included primer bulb to blow air into it, but we kept getting the check tank light. I was taught to prime a liquid pump with liquid. We primed it with water, and it took right off. It cleaned our kitchen linoleum wonderfully! The water out of the dirty tank was black! And the vacuum filter was completely full of dry debris that I didn't even see on the floor! It had no problems negotiating the multiple angles of our kitchen walls, and as it ran over a floor register it hung up, but went into a free me mode and continued on! Cleaning it afterward was a breeze, and most of the replaceable parts have the part# on or near them. The noise level is what I would expect out of a vaccuum/motorized device. I am very pleased with this purchase. Looks like she will be getting a carpet version for Christmas.』
(Great Deal and Works Great) 『I had a initial problem with the battery not completing the cycle and Irobot suggested the battery would need to be cycled a few times in order to get it to full capacity. Amamzon shipped me a new one, a whole new Scooba, and it works great. I have used it many time already in order to test it during the 90 day warranty and it has past the test thus far. I can highly recommend this product and Amazon to back this product.
This product performs as advertised. The unit I received was in like-new condition. It is my second Scooba (first one still works but needs a new battery; the battery failed after the charger was left unplugged for several days. Batteries are expensive and confusing to purchase online because there are several versions).
The remanufactured Scooba would not operate until I primed the pump several times (per included instructions); it then thoroughly cleaned a vinyl floor, leaving it slightly wet in spots.
Either the Clorox cleaning liquid or vinegar work well in the Scooba.
The Scooba can get stuck in the toe space under kitchen cabinets if there is not enough clearance.
I remove the brush and filters (easy to do) after using the Scooba, rinse, and allow to dry before reinstalling them.』
(My new little buddy) 『I love my Scooba. He's a tenacious little guy. Sure, he has a fairly short battery life and is slightly high maintenance, always needing to be "cleaned out thoroughly." Once, he got a little stubborn and just moved around in circles. Turns out I didn't clean him well enough and a sensor was covered in gook. Easy fix though. In all, our Scooba has become a part of my family. My daughter has named him "Bongo." He keeps my hardwood floors clean and tidy while I run around the rest of the house like a chicken with my head cut off. I know every few weeks I may need to give the floor an extra scrubbing by hand, but for maintenance, my little Bongo is perfect.』
(Great concept, parts need improvement) 『It will relieve you of some of the housework (doesn't do corners), so great concept and minimal cost to run the cleaner. The body parts last about a year and company has poor customer service. So the old reliable mop stays until I see a new and improved version with sturdier parts, or the price on this drops significantly.』 『

The Happiest Baby, Inc.
Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (INCREDIBLE!!!!) 『A friend had recommended this video before our baby had arrived. We watched it and it looked unbelievable. We have been using Dr. Karp's techniques for 3 weeks now with a newborn, and they really work. We refer to him as the "Baby Whisperer." I would recommend this DVD (or his book) to anyone!』
(Life Saver) 『Every new parent should have this. We had no idea how to stop our new baby from screaming. I wish we'd had this on our first night home from the hospital instead of waiting until day 6. Although some of these tips are similar to things our moms and grandmas did, Dr. Karp has perfected the techniques and explained what to do, step by step. I'm buying this for every new parent I know from now on.』
(A MUST HAVE) 『It works!!! It is truly a very good book and DVD, the book having more info than the DVD.It has allowed my daughter to sleep through the night using the techniques, some are forgotten things, like swaddling, and some are new twist on the old ways that worked then and work nOW. One friend had been swaddling but she was always "tied " to her baby, rocking him...the day she got a swing(3 weeks ago) she is still rejoicing and celebrating the freedom to watch her son swing to CD while swaddled and sleeping happily as she fINALLY can make meals and clean house for more than 5minutes at a time and both babies are happier and perkier...they are getting more deep sleep and so is MOM !!!』
(I would recommend this to a friend....) 『The tips on this DVD do work! With a new baby, I don't have time to read the book, so I was happy when my friend told me about this DVD. My baby doesn't have colic, but she does get fussy, like most babies do and she is our first. We already had a series of things to do when fussy time hits, but now we have 5 more tricks. Anything helps when you are trying to make your little angel happy!』
(BEWARE if your child has "loose" hip or dysplasia) 『OUr daughter was diagnosed with "loose" hips at birth. We were told swaddling was okay as long as it wasn't tight. THIS was VERY BAD advice and may have meant her issue did not go away.
IF your child has a suspicious first exam and/or was born breech and has risk factors for dysplasia, don't do it and go to an orthopedic pediatric specialist pronto. HOpefully someone will avoid the heartbreak of seeing their child in casts, braces, and harnesses.
Quote from PEDIATRICS
For infants who are already at increased risk for DDH because of family history or breech delivery, hip ultrasound screening should be performed as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics clinical practice guidelines11; if dysplasia is found, swaddling should be avoided. If the screening ultrasound findings are normal, then swaddling can be safely allowed. For all infants who are swaddled, monitoring of the swaddling technique to ensure that their hips are allowed to flex and abduct in a safe position for hip development may lessen the risk of DDH.』 『Do you learn better by watching rather than reading? Here is a chance to see how to transport your baby from screaming into serenity...in minutes. Watch as, step-by-step, Dr. Karp teaches new parent how to switch on their baby's powerful calming reflex. English and Spanish In "The Happiest Baby" Dr. Karp reveals a treasure sought by new parents for centuries... the "calming reflex" (the automatic "off-switch? for any baby?s crying). No wonder thousands of Los Angeles parents, from working moms to superstars like Madonna and Michelle Pfeiffer have turned to Dr. Karp to learn his secrets for making babies happy. Elisabeth Bing author and co-founder of Lamaze International "The Happiest Baby on the Block is fun, fascinating and convincing. I highly recommend it to all new parents." (Running time - 38 minutes.) The DVD also contains 3 bonus chapters: 1) Dr. Karp answers 25 questions from parents about calming babies and helping them sleep. 2) A Spanish dubbed audio track of the entire 38 minute teaching video. 3) Three tracks of calming white-noise sound that is an extraordinary mix of womb sounds and a newly designed pulsation that babies love (even though it sounds a little odd to the ears of an adult) Each track can be played individually, played in sequence or repeated for hours to gently guide your baby into a deep level of relaxation. This video is designed in NTSC not PAL or SECAM. It is meant for use in most countries in the Western Hemisphere as well as Japan, South Korea, Greenland, Guam, Samoa, and the Philippines.』

Stunning cameo talent and rhythm that strikes deep. Don't need a drop of Celtic blood to really enjoy this DVD. Boy'o, these feet were movin'! 』
(Celtic Thunder) 『Having seen them perform on PBS; I just had to have the DVD to continue to watch and enjoy and share with my friends.』
(Celtic Thunder) 『Celtic Thunder is absoulutely THE BEST concert we have ever seen. We have viewed it at least 10 times with our friends. We are always sorry when it ends, and wish it would go on and on. Our friends all loved it too and most have ordered a copy for themselves.』
(Rating for Celtic Thunder) 『Saw the show on PBS, immediately ordered the video. These guys are amazing! Wonderful voices, variety of styles, charismatic, fun, soulful. I highly recommend this dvd.』 『For Celtic Thunder, Sharon Browne has teamed up with Grammy-nominated Irish songwriting and composing veteran Phil Coulter to produce a show that includes an eclectic mix of songs ranging from the traditional "Mountains of Mourne" and "Come By the Hills" to international hits such as "Brothers in Arms" and "Desperado," as well as original compositions by Coulter, who has written hits for Elvis Presley ("My Boy") and the Bay City Rollers, and performed with Van Morrison, Tom Jones, and the Rolling Stones. The ensemble numbers in Celtic Thunder reflect the power of the vocalists, who range in age from 14 to 40, and feature songs that celebrate a common Celtic heritage.』
IPhone 3G used's review (A DVD release please for this Classic!) 『Disney is so obsessed with Hannah Montana and High School Musical, they're forgetting about us "Boomers" who grew up on "The Wonderful World of Disney". A Halloween classic like "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" should not be cast aside. I want to show it to my grandchildren and it's nowhere to be found! This classic version narrated by Bing Crosby never goes out of style. PLEASE BRING IT BACK! 』
(A Great Halloween Tape) 『This is my favorite video, I love it! I watch it over and over- not just at Halloween. A lot of the narration is quoted from the book. I love everything about it: the story, the characters, the animation... It's a great video for people of all ages.』
(Beware the Headless Horseman!) 『This classic cartoon features the voice of Bing Crosby in Washington Irving's tale of the schoolmaster who loved the fair Katrina, but also believed in spooks! Children over age 7 will love to be scared by this funny Halloween tale...but keep the lights on! 5 stars!』
(Sing it again Bing) 『"The Old Crooner" himself, Bing Crosby, narrates and sings this cartoon classic based on Washington Irving's All Hallow's Eve tale. Extremely exomorphic educator Ichabod Crane is competing against Brom Bones ( an ancestor to Gaston in Beauty and the Beast?) for Katrina, the wealthy farmer's daughter. So is it Brom or the Legendary Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow pursuing Ichabod through the perilous forest?
Disney set the high standard in animation. Here, the initial and moonlit views of Old Baltus van Tassel's farm and the woods are reminiscent of Van Gogh's Starry Night. This is a must-have Disney Classic.』
(Very Good!!!) 『Usually I don't care for Disney Flicks but this one I fell in love with! Even though educational it was very funny! The whole family loved it! It is espeacially good during the season of fall! I would recommend it to anyone!!!』

I am still waiting for a full refund for the item&shipping fee that I was billed for merchandise that I did not received.』
(snow white and the seven dwarfs) 『i bought this dvd from a seller on amazon and this seller was quick in mailing this dvd and it was like brand new.i would order from this buyer again』 『One of the brightest nuggets from Disney's golden age, this 1937 film is almost dizzying in its meticulous construction of an enchanted world, with scores of major and minor characters (including fauna and fowl), each with a distinct identity. When you watch Snow White's intricate, graceful movements of fingers, arms, and head all in one shot, it is not the technical brilliance of Disney's artists that leaps out at you, but the very spirit of her engaging, girl-woman character. When the wicked queen's poisoned apple turns from killer green to rose red, the effect of knowing something so beautiful can be so terrible is absolutely elemental, so pure it forces one to surrender to the horror of it. Based on the Grimm fairy tale, Snow White is probably the best family film ever to deal, in mythic terms, with the psychological foundation for growing up. It's a crowning achievement and should not be missed.--Tom Keogh』
