IPhone 3G used's review (Do Not Buy) 『The filter screen assembly will and does break. There is no way to get a replacement under warranty, because NO ONE can find the place to send it back to. The company hides themselves well. It's not a Bodum which as stated before, uses a metal screen assembly. Why do engineers use plastic on the most stressful parts that 'will' break. Morons.
Again,』
(Small but good) 『The picture makes this press look larger than it is. It is pretty small, when they say six cups, they mean 6 actual cups in liquid measure, not 6 giant caffeine frenzy cups, which most coffee drinkers think of as a cup. Of course, this was an oversight I made, they aren't being untruthful about the 6 cups. Other than that, the frother is fun to use and works well. Coffee still tastes great, plus you get to feel sophisticated when pouring it out of your press.』
(nice set) 『I bought this set for the frother since it costs just about the same to get it as to get the set. The frother works well and the press is a good size for two of us. The only drawback is that there is no marking on the press to indicate how many cups. It's still a good buy and the seller is quick with delivery.』
(I was pleased) 『I received this product quickly and I am pretty happy with it. I just got back from traveling abroad and was unable to bring back we me the french press i bought there....will have to get next time when I return...and it is a bit nicer than this one. I got spoiled by my German one. I would say that it does a pretty good job though and the frother is pretty nice too. For someone who has never had a French Press you will love it.』
(bon appetite!) 『this is the best coffee press!
IT IS HUGE and unbreakable! I highly recommend this coffee press!! It is like a half the price of other brands. But double the size!! (Plus you get the frother as a bonus!)
Ahhh nothing like a Real cup of cafe in the morning. Cheers to that!』 『The Bonjour Hugo Cappucino Set is a 6 cup French Press combined with an automatic milk frother for the ideal gift to any coffee loving recipient. The French Press carafe is made of unbreakable polycarbonate. It features a comfort handle and rubberized base along with a patented filtering lid to reduce sediment in your coffee. The battery powered automatic frother produces rich, creamy froths for cappucinos, lattes or mochas.』 『Now you can make your own cappuccino or latte without an expensive espresso maker. This set includes a six-cup French press, which many aficionados swear makes the best tasting coffee, along with a battery-powered turbo frother that whips milk into foamy froth. Bonjour's Hugo carafe is made of unbreakable polycarbonate, and comes with a removable, rubberized base, comfort-grip handle, and plastic frame. The patented filter in the lid reduces fine sediment sometimes found in the bottom of a cup of coffee made by the French press method. The stainless-steel plunger, lid, frame, and carafe are dishwasher-safe; with the metal parts removed, the Hugo is microwave-safe.
The Hugo six-cup carafe makes about 24 ounces of coffee, which is more like three cups for most coffee drinkers. Sleek and contemporary, the hand-held frother features a white handle with black cap that unscrews for battery replacement, and a stainless-steel wand and coil. Heating milk before frothing can help increase the foam. Batteries are not included, and the frother wand should be washed by hand.--Ann Bieri

IPhone 3G used's review (Good value) 『Nice quality for price. I was expecting a darker color but I like this one.』
(Soft and attractive towels) 『Towels arrived quickly. Fair price for soft product. Towels must be washed a couple of times before use to avoid drying yourself into a full fuzz body suit.』
(6-pc Towel Set - Good but not great) 『Don't get me wrong. It's certainly a nice set of towels for the money. I got a small handful of lint in the first wash, which you will want to do before you can expect any reasonable absorbency out of these towels. I was also disappointed to find about a 12-inch piece of thread that had separated from the border of one of the bath towels, which I had to cut with scissors. There was also a bit more pilling of the terry cloth than I expected. But I would still consider these above average towels due to their size and thickness. I would really prefer to rate the item at 3 1/2 stars, but that's not an option.
UPDATE - I have to return the towels for replacement or refund. The edging on one of the bath towels started to disintegrate after only the second washing! And the pilling is more pronounced with the terry cloth becoming more uneven. I would NOT recommend these towels.』
(nice soft towels) 『they do tend to form little fuzz balls, but I've only washed them a couple of times. They are very soft and absorbant, my only dislike is that the design is only on one end of the towel, so you must pay attention to that when hanging them, just a nuisance. I would purchase them again however!』
(Towel Set) 『I was very pleased with the quality of the towel set. The bath towels are large, fluffy, and soft.』

(If I could pick just one DVD for my daughters, this would be it) 『My daughter now talks about being a police officer and pretends to direct traffic. She practices running races like Atalanta and my toddler asks me to show her the babies and she sings "free to be" all day long.
These stories and songs influenced me, opened the world to me, and they do the same for my young daughters. I remembered every word from my own childhood and sharing this with my daughters is emotional, special, and worthwhile.
Anyone who says female empowerment is no longer necessary is (1) not female; and (2) doesn't have daughters.
I credit these lessons with my sense of social justice and I hope my daughters develop this as well.』
(Quality of DVD is horrible) 『Like many before me, I watched this as a kid in school for several years and was surprised to see a DVD release. The DVD has versions of songs not on the CD (a young Michael Jackson for example).
BUT
The DVD quality is pretty bad. It looks like someone put a video camera on a tripod and pointed it at the wall showing the old film on a screen (complete with things blocking the view) - I'm serious. They didn't remaster it or even do a quality transfer.
This may be the only version you will see on DVD so holding off may not be wise if you have no other copy. I pulled a copy from Showtime a LONG Time ago and it's MUCH MUCH MUCH better than the DVD. How sad...』
(Free to Be...DVD) 『Great DVD. Just as good as I remebered it as a child. My children love it. It is definitely a '70's piece, but the topics ring clear today too. Lots of music and many differnt stories make up this DVD. Every child's collection should have it.』
(Dated? you've got to be kidding!) 『Buy this DVD. Just do it. Lessons like equality, self realization, bullies and gender stereotypes are more needed in today's 'modern' life than ever. So what if the technology is out of touch when the message isn't!
What is a 2 year old going to know of technology anyway? Mine loves good old sesame street over the fancier fare availble; and, believe me, I've tried to get him into more modern stuff so I can bear to sit through it.
We complain that they spend hours in front of the TV and on Nintendo DS. They're just kids in the end and is it them or us succumbing to advertising or the cool gadets out there? Before they get too jaded try out 'Free to be...' on them.
Remember: We've read where parents said the DVD was too dated but I did not read where their kids said 'hey mom this DVD is soooo 1970's I just can't watch it'.』 『LikeSchoolhouse Rock, Marlo Thomas's 1970s children's TV show,Free to Be… You and Memet with immediate success and became a treasured piece of entertainment over the years. Based on her award-winning album of songs, skits, and comedy,Free to Beexplores the infinite possibilities of childhood. Fans know most of the skits in the 45-minute show verbatim, and it's easy to see why right from the beginning with an infectious title track followed by a puppet sketch featuring Thomas and Mel Brooks as newborns. Top talent appears on both sides of the camera, including Alan Alda who directs and performs a cartoon about a boy who wants a doll. However, the presentation does show its age at times: a teenage Michael Jackson singing (with Roberta Flack) on how he's not going to change when he grows up.

I was right!! I didn't expect the DVD to be able to match the electric passion felt at a live concert but I was pleasantly surprised, and dare I say "electrified!" by the masterful way in which this show conveys all the magic of seeing Chayanne in person. The only thing missing is the smell!
This concert celebrates Chayanne's 30-year career as an entertainer and he delivers each song with the skills and passion of an experienced performer who loves what he does. Chayanne enthusiastically uses his experience to connect with his audience in a way that is almost mystical. He is playful, sincere, achingly sweet and divinely wicked. His music and dancing will draw you in but it is his charisma that will hold you captive for a two full hours that goes by in blink.
This DVD will leave the seasoned fans newly enchanted while seducing new fans into a wonderfully energizing Latin experience; everyone gets off this ride and heads to the back of the line so they can go again and again and again! 』
(Outstanding) 『Absolutely wonderful a treat especially for those who have never been to a Chay concert. Fantastic performance by a incrediable multitalented artist. Always leaves you wanting more.』
(Espectacular!) 『Ya era hora que sacara a la venta un concierto, y que concierto! Incluye canciones recientes de su ultimo disco, y obviamente las inolvidables. Si lo compran van a pasar un rato chevere cantando y coreando sus canciones. Ademas dandose un taco de ojo con este guapeton!』
(AN UNIQUE LIFETIME EXPERIENCE-The First Chayanne Live Show Recorded) 『This guy is amazing.After selling 20million records came with an impressive change, the album SINCERO-2003, USA Grammy 2004 award nominee, plenty of beautiful ballads, crazy rythms an a magical superb catchy cumbia turns into steady-rock written by one of the best spaniard young songwriters of nowadays, Juan Mogica(the guy, now living between NYC, Madrid and Miami-I've searching his live-is a sort of crazy Nomad guy that has been written many of the greatest pop songs of the lately 10 years for the best latin artists and himself), and the album had an state-of-the-art production by Luis Ochoa, Rene Toledo(The producer of the best Julio Iglesias albums)and a couple of guys of his 90's era.After that amazing album that have sold more than one million records, Chayanne release a couple of personal and interesting as himself albums with great success.But now, this is a real musical revolution, maybe more for the latin audience, but I think that an artist that wait 30 years to release his first Live Cd-DVD looking for the perfection or is God or is too close.Only Peter Gabriel has that kind of artistic contemplation.
Chayanne is a very smart guy.And it's an unique artist.One between a million.I have bought and enjoy a lot of live albums and Dvd shows, but this is an unique one in a lifetime experience.
Recorded at River Plate, Argentina, land of rock and the latin country with more musical cultural level, and an audience mad because the impressive show than more than 60.000 people in HD quality with all his hits you can't doubt about it!!
ONCE IN A LIFETIME,CHAYANNE IS THE BEST.AN UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. Mozart did, Beethoven did, Peter Gabriel did(And twice)AND CHAYANNE HAS DONE SOMETHING IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME IN THE LATIN MARKET:

IPhone 3G used's review (Not just a "chick" movie.) 『I was dragged to this movie as a young boy. What young man wants to see a movie with a singing prince and a love story? It didn't take long for me to enjoy the story of male bonding by singing and drinking in the beer garden soon to be followed by a sword fight. I can almost imagine myself serenading the beautiful and sexy barmaid (Ann Bylthe), especially with the flawless voice from GOD(Mario Lanza) lip-synced to near perfection by the prince(Edmund Purdom). All this plus an arrogant jerk is shown the error of his ways. Oh yeah, and the love story is classic. With 20-20 hindsight it's obvious that losing Lanza,the actor, was a stroke of luck.』
(A Real Fan) 『I don't know how many times I have watched my video of this film, but I enjoy watching every time!!! It is the one video I Treasure. I love all the songs. When will it be put on DVD????』
(Like a fairytale) 『I'd had this video for years and can't tell you how many times I watched. It's like watching a beautiful fairytale. The setting, the costumes, the music are all beautiful. The entire cast superb. The only disappointing thing about this movie is that Mario Lanza did not get to perform the part of the prince even though he had recorded all the songs for the movie--it's his voice you hear--and the screenplay was written especially for him. But because he had a problem controlling his weight, the studio replaced him with Edmund Purdom, whom I think did a superb job overall--you can not tell he's not the one really singing. I love Ann Blyth as the leading lady--so lovely and so is her voice. All the songs are beautiful, and Mario's voice is out of this world. I gave my video to Anthony Kearns(one of the Irish Tenors) at one of his concerts and told him they should do a remake of this movie using him as the prince (of course they would have to deal with the Irish accent). As it turns out, Anthony now sings two of the songs from this movie. I recently got another video of this movie from Amazon.com and can once again watch it over and over. 』
(A Beautiful Musical but Sad Love Story !!) 『I finally got the opportunity to purchase this movie, and it is the singing of Mario Lanza that blows me away . My favorites are "Beloved" , "Serenade" and "Summertime in Heidelberg", and "Deep in My Hear, Dear" , everytime I hear Mario sang those songs to Kathie , my heart just melts. Edmund Purdom does make a very handsome prince and very good lip synching too. Must of been a very tough job for him. Ann Blyth was perfect in her role as the barmaid, and what a lovely soprano voice she has!! Edmund and Ann make a great couple and they had very good chemistry working together, no wonder they did a movie together again the following year "The King's Thief" . A must watch for musical lover's fan. 5 stars for singing and acting !!!!』
(Good Movie) 『The music, the romance, and of course, Mario Lanza's voice are what we romantics look for every time. Ann Blyth has always been a delightful actress to watch and Edmund Purdom does the handsome Prince so well. Heidelberg is always the old-fashioned setting to complete the fantasy. I watch this movie alone or with my favorite person. The solo that Mario Lanza sings "I'll Walk With God" has been a true inspiration during many sad moments for me.』

(An Oldie but Goodie! Cher with Keli Roberts; the Best Workout EVER!) 『An Oldie but Goodie! I've worn out two VHS tapes over the years! Great workout, the best! I have at least 50 exercise DVDs and videos. This is the best of all! Can't find another to come close. Does anyone know if this will ever be released on DVD? I still put it in the old VHS player from time to time but would love to own it on DVD.It's the most awesome program, Cher and Keli Roberts make it fun. Keli is a super instructor. The step program is fabulous and fun; the abdominal workout is fantastic and the standing leg routine is something else. You will sweat your butt off but you'll be in the best shape of your life. This one rocks!』
(Cherfitness: New Attitude) 『The best. Have loved the music and the attitude for over ten years. But now I no longer have a VHS format. Please. Need the DVD!』
(TIMELESS and FANTASTIC (When will there be a DVD Version?)) 『This is my favorite workout videos. We need the DVD version!!! I can't wait until it comes out!』
(Best Step Workout Ever!!!) 『I've used this video for more than 15 years now (God, I feel so old!) and this destroys anything else out there! First of all, it's fun! You actually enjoy working out (no small feat, let me tell you). The instructor is in great shape, explains all of the steps, and doesn't do the annoying "Smile! Enjoy yourself" routine that so many do. Cher's jokes are a bit lame and the music is old even for the time in which it had been made, but you really feel as if you are a part of the group (which consist of pretty but not annoyingly centrefold type girls like on Bodyshaping). You can make the steps more challenging by adding arm movements or by popping (note to those who are heavy or have poor knees: Don't pop. It destroys the knees. I have very minor knee problems and I avoid popping like the plague). I only do the step workout on this video since I perform my squats with weights and do my abs seperately, but as a step workout, this is the best! You sweat a ton (a great sign that you actually did something), it's over relatively quickly (40 min. for the step portion), and you've honestly enjoyed yourself. Could you ask for more? My only complaint: Producers of this video, please, please, please release it on dvd! My video is on its last leg!』
IPhone 3G used's review (Haven't received my merchandise) 『I ordered my DVD several weeks ago and am still waiting for it. The estimated time of arrival indicated November 3 at the latest. I also contacted the vendor, but have not received any reply. I am very unhappy at this point.』
(Great Service) 『Great customer service and shipping was quick product in great condition. Love the movie. thanks.』
(pinocchio) 『disney movies are always good.But in my opinon only the old classics like pinocchio,mouse detective etc. are truly worth watching.Not the junk they have put out in the last 20 yrs.』
(This was a fake) 『Don't believe the item was authentic. Then when I contacted the vendor to return I never got a response. This was a gift and not only was I embarrassed I lost my money. This will make me hesitant to order from another vendor.』
(Nothing like a little wooden boy) 『For the past two years I've searched the stores looking for a copy of Pinoccio, and never found one. why didn't I just go to Amazon in the first place and I would have had the movie years ago. I wanted my grandchildren to hear the story of Pinocchio and learn the lesson of what happens when you tell a fib. My nose is small to this day, thanks to the lesson I learned from Walt Disney and his wonderful wood boy. 』 『This Disney masterpiece from 1940 will hold up forever precisely because it doesn't restrain or temper the most elemental emotions and themes germane to its story. Based on the Collodi tale about a wooden puppet who wants to become a real boy,Pinocchiois among the most magical, mythical, and frightening films to come from the studio in its long history. A number of scenes make permanent impressions on young minds (just ask Steven Spielberg, who quoted the film more than once inClose Encounters of the Third Kind), and the songs ("When You Wish upon a Star") can't be beat.--Tom Keogh』 『Count the number of truly classic animated films and the list would begin with Walt Disney's PINOCCHIO. C. Collodi's brilliant story of a little puppet who dreams of being a real boy unfolds as a shining example of vivid, rich, detailed Disney animation at its finest! An unforgettable cast of characters includes the spry Jiminy Cricket; kindly old Geppetto; the sneaky J. Worthington Foulfellow; a terrifying whale named Monstro; and, of course, the little puppet made of wood, Pinocchio. Coupled with the haunting theme song "When You Wish Upon A Star," you have a timeless, unparalleled film adventure for anyone who has a dream in their heart.』
