0	KATELAND	I think the title of this documentry, TRAPPED IN AN ELEVATOR could be abit misleading. "ELEVATORS" would be more of an appropriate title for it. This is more of a study on elevators. How they looked when first invented. The purpose they serve all over the world. The workings of them. What makes them go UP and DOWN. The mechanical side of it all. How they were able to build skyscrapers, showing that elevators made it all possible. You were shown a video of a person trapped in an elevator. But the quality of the video was so poor, you were unable to make anything from it. Iv given this DVD just 2 stars. Because i grew very tired of watching Elevators.	negative
1	The exact right part	Needed to rehang a shelving unit and needed replacement anchors. Have not done the work yet, but the product is an exact match.	positive
1	Fast paced story	I bought this book yesterday afternoon, and finished it yesterday evening! I really enjoyed the evloving of these two characters, and overall it was deeply moving. Recommended!	positive
0	Nice design, obnoxious cooling fan	This unit is a nice size and well-designed. But the cooling fan is amazingly loud. Loud enough to hear in a moving car. Loud enough that if I saw someone about to pull this out of their bag on the plane, I would offer my seat to someone else. It seems the designers realized this, and added a variable fan speed control to the design. So the unit goes from loud when it is idle to obnoxious when it is under load. What really frustrated me is that I called Targus and asked specifically if this unit has a fan. They said "no". They even double-checked. Grumble...	negative
0	works, but incredibly annoying whine	Pro: Works as advertised.Con: This device makes a constant, loud, high-pitched whine, because it uses a tiny cooling fan that must be spun at high RPM to be effective. While in use, it sounds as if you have a mosquito inside your ear. Road noise at highway speeds and a loud radio are not enough to mask the noise.	negative
0	Falsified Information	This book is filled with falsified information regarding Armenian history and Armenian origins. Armenians have resided in modern land of Armenia and ancient Armenia, which covered the land from all of Turkey to Azerbaijan, for thousands of years! Armenians now are the original Armenians from thousands of years earlier. We even have our unique blood, traditions, culture, music, and foods that NO OTHER RACE on this planet, HAS or HAD in the past. Overall, this book states things I find on Turkish or Azerbaijani propaganda websites .... Congratulations for attempting to teach other races INFORMATION that is not only false, but dangerous as it affects people's judgments of modern day Armenians and our plead for the recognition of the Armenian Genocide. DISGRACE!	negative
0	Pathetic	The sheer volume of intellectual dishonesty within the pages of this book is unbelievable. The author should be ashamed of himself for falsifying factual information. It is similar to proving that the world is flat despite all the contrary evidence.For any comments or questions please email Helmut Fien, PhD or Vahan Setyan, MS., PhD at [email protected], with subject heading - Historicity.	negative
1	Simple and handy	Perfect for picture framing, for me it is easier than using pliers. Also check for the PushMate to go along with it.	positive
1	A pleasant surprise....	I will agree with several of the other reviews - this book is not what you 'expect' it to be - but a very good book nonetheless. When I saw the word "companion", I assumed the book would read more as a study guide. I assumed it would read more like a dictionary of people, places, and things, etc.This book is more like a walk through Tolkein's head. Have you ever wondered "Where did the word 'Hobbit' come from?" "How did Tolkein come up with the names of his characters?" "How did he build their personalities?"I found it interesting that Tolkein felt his characters more or less "already existed in another realm and he needed to learn more about them as oppposed to him actually developing them."I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I found it very interesting to learn how such a wonderful story actually came to be... and I thoroughly enjoyed the illustrations.	positive
1	Entertaining read	I liked this a lot better than most of the reviewers here. The only thing I would change would be the title. There didn't seem to be much, if any, actual terraforming going on, but only periodic waiting to see what transformations of life nature had performed on its own.I also wondered about the computer chips that ran the moon base and how they could keep on running through the millennia. But that's just nitpicking. The story itself was entertaining throughout and the characters (including the ones who finally refused to risk themselves) plausible enough to keep me wondering what would happen next. I also appreciated Tor's $7 price for the Kindle edition.	positive
0	Entertaining but nothing new	This is a fairly entertaining book. However the plot is very similar to the plot in Stephen Baxter's "Space". The basis for the plot is, however, so much more solid in Baxter's book.The ending of the book is very abrupt. It seems like Williamson runs out of ideas, and hurrily tries to gather his stuff and leave.	negative
0	A great idea gone so wrong	What a waste of time this was. The start is good, but around page 80 I realized it was going nowhere. It's basically a bunch of unrelated random short stories; you could read the first chapter and the last one or jump from one to another without much trouble. Williamson tries to tell a story of cosmic proportions but fails mainly due to a group of very stupid and shallow characters.I've read some people's thoughts about this novel and believe me, this is NOT hard science fiction. Is just mediocre science fiction. The idea is good if not original, but the result is so, so bad.And Pepe's spanish (that is, Williamson's spanish) is not only ridiculous but insulting.Do not waste your time or your money in this. I'm sure Williamson has a lot of other, GOOD novels from where to choose.	negative
0	A Disappointment from a Grand Master	This book is really four novelettes retrofitted around "The Ultimate Earth," a novelette which (inexplicably) won all sorts of awards. Like a lot of "novels" that are jury-rigged around extended short stories, this one has all the weaknesses and few of the strengths that other such novels have. (The best novel of this kind is Fred Pohl's Years of the City, a clear masterpiece.) I found the only good section of this book to be the first. It sets up a remarkable premise and sets about unfolding it rather well. But by the time the book ends, you really don't know who is who and the far future earth seems more like modern-day Africa. Not a single imaginative trope in sight.This would be an excellent first book, however. Unfortunately, it isn't. The five star ratings this book has received clearly are given to the man and not the work. This isn't a good place to start with one's reading of Jack Williamson.	negative
0	30 tricks & tips	Thumb is to hard. For a large tip, it does not fit on my thumb. Tip is to thick. Look elsewhere for a better thumb tip. I had one years ago and had a lot fun with it. This one is nothing like the old tip I used then. Silk is not a good quality. Did not review the dvd. NO stars for this product but magic trick is a lot of fun.	negative
0	p.o.s.	I have had two of these phones. One got hit while in my pocket, which cracked the lcd display making the phone totally useless. The second phone, I have to push the battery into the phone to get service. It drops 90 percent of my calls, and takes at least four tries to send a text or picture message. Spend your money somewhere else.	negative
1	Evaluation	It is very helpfull in order to grow up in the knowledge of Jesus Christ our savior and Lord. It shows why we need him and why God is all sufficient to meet the deepest need of our soul and to give sens to our life. Everyone may be concerned and can profit from this lecture.	positive
0	didn't help me	This just didn't work for me - I think the main reason is there is too much to it. There are several dvd's, but they just didn't really help me. I still feel the same as I did before reviewing these dvd's and trying to follow his advice.	negative
0	The jury is still out on this one!	This is good material, but not as user friendly if you are buying it solo and using it in an organized group. Also, The very first lesson, I was disappointed about 1 comment he made in the DVD, when talikg about pornopraphy. It was only referred to as a problem for men and this is not true any more, women struggle with this too and it should not be swept under the rug!	negative
0	Dangerous Instruction Flaw!	So I read the instructions 5 times. It says to connect the fused red wire to the ground side of the fan and another red wire straight from the batter to the hot side of the fan. This is dangerous advice! If the fan shorts it will draw as much power as the red battery wire can take until it melts and might cause a fire. MAKE SURE YOU ADD A SUITABLE SIZE FUSE ON THE RED WIRE TO THE BATTERY (and the fuse should be close to the battery). Most fans are almost 10 amp so go with a 15 amp fuse. Also, that red wire with the fuse on it from the controller should be Black. I really think who ever the engineer was who designed this should be working at McDonalds instead.Otherwise, just like others I too had one of the wires pop out of their connection (black lead from the sensor).	negative
0	BEWARE! Not as Advertised!	These clubs are actually square. Don't let the picture fool you. I ordered this set, thinking it would be a good, NORMAL bag of clubs, but I was deeply mistaken.If you are expecting clubs that don't look ridiculous, get yourself a Callaway or something.	negative
0	Slow and damaged here too!	Shipping was very slow, and it arrived in a plain brown box (suspicious) and the item was covered with brown grease (disgusting), and there were no instructions (unsafe). I too think I got a returned item, and it's going back. Would I order again from Cosmetic Solutions? No.	negative
0	Slow Shipping and Damaged Goods	I would not recommend this company! It took the product 3weeks to get here and when it did, the product looked used and rusted out. No instructions and no original box. I sent it back immediately. So Good luck if you try to order anything from this company.	negative
0	Ear Syringe	Found this to be of poor quality and leaks from the back causing water to ever wear but were you want	negative
1	RECOMMEND SELLER TO ANYONE WITH CABLE NEEDS!	As always, Cables To Go exceeds my expectation with cables that are not only high quality, but durable! I purchased this particular S Video splitter so that I could record gameplay from my xbox and see what I am doing at the same time. This is a must if you want to record montages! (If you are using S Video, then this is the cable for you, if you are using AV in-puts, then get AV splitters. Cables To Go sells them too!)	positive
1	Women's Keen Amsterdam	The service from the seller was great, very timely. The shoes are very cute. There is elastic under the band, which is a bit tight for high arches like mine. But it has stretched a bit and the shoes are becoming quite comfortable. There is great support in the sole and they look very cute for being so sturdy and comfy. I definitely recommend these shoes.	positive
1	Nice Collection	Nice Collection to have if you like to watch the Family Guy, will keep you laughing.	positive
0	Never got it!	The item never came and the seller never answered any of my emails. Freakin' Disaster.	negative
1	RECOMMEND!	This is a very good product to purchase for the Family Guy fans. The extras in the box aren't of the best of quality...but the DVD's are all great and the carrying case isn't bad either. I would recommend this product.	positive
1	The perfect gift for a Family Guy Fan	It was just a coincidence that we came across this when it went on sale but boy, was it worth it. I got it for them as a birthday gift and they loved it. It was just more than just the movies; it came with little novelties that were amusing and just added to the whole liking of the package. I enjoy watching it too but I know they are happy that they own all the volumes out currently	positive
1	greart for any family guy fan	this item has a lot of great quality items, great dvds and is perfect for any fan, any gender, of any age!	positive
1	this gift made a family guy fan super freakin happy!	While I myself am not the biggest fan, this collection did not disappoint. It has fully lived up to the tongue in cheek, vulgar yet hilarious tradition of the Family Guy Series. My boyfriend was ecstatic. Thank you for such a great gift idea!!!Family Guy - Freakin' Party Pack	positive
1	Super Series with tons of irreverent laughs BUT...	-Season One (Volume 1)-Season Two (Volume 1)-Season Three (Volume 2)-Season Four Part 1(Volume 3)-Season Four Part 2(Volume 4)-Season Five Part 1(Volume 5)*You do not get Season Five Part 2(Volume 6)This is the DUMBEST METHOD OF LABELING VOLUMES that I've ever encountered!The only thing that could make it worse is to label them- Season THREE and a SEVEN EIGHTHS, PART 17-Z, VOLUME 236.13.9.!GEEZ, they could have used STARDATES EASIER THAN THIS MESS.Ultimately, this collection may be the way to go since you should be reasonably assured MOST of the series is here.	positive
0	Great concept. Flawed execution.	Like the title says... "Great concept. Flawed execution."The ping-pong paddles, poker chips, etc. all in one box is a hard deal to argue with. Unfortunately, for all of the bells and whistles, one thing is missing: the actual rest of the series.For now, the best bet is "Family Guy - The Complete Collection (Stewie Head Packaging) - (Amazon.com Exclusive)", though a truly ultimate uber boxset is still forthcoming.This box is a novelty. Nothing more. And at the current price tag, it's a very expensive novelty. Personally, I'm waiting until it's done correctly before I buy.	negative
1	Family guy	Amazing order, haven't stopped watching yet . Great gift and unique order. Package was exactly what I wanted To buy my family	positive
1	Fantastic Party Pak!	I received this great pack as a gift. I love the Family Guy series, so this was a hit on the mark. The other contents are nice, but not necessary. I would have loved just the DVD set just the way it is. This is a complete set of DVD's up until the date this was released. This is a late, late review, as I thought I had left one all ready, but didn't. If you know someone, or yourself loves this show, this is a great gift pack to purchase.	positive
1	When you need a laugh!	Okay so Family Guy may not be for everyone, but I found this histarical. When down time became available and I wanted to forget about challenges at work these did the trick. Never used the extra goodies included.	positive
1	Freakin' Sweet in every sense of the words	I love Family Guy. Straight and to the point. This box set is so funny. And I was able to get in on the deal for half price so I wouldn't pass it up. The DVD case is perfect. Now I can sell all the other box sets I have for the other seasons and the movie. I am a card player so I think the cards and chips and pretty funny. The ping pong table net and balls I don't think I will use for ping pong. I think the net is staying in the box and I just found a few new balls for beer pong. =) Find the cheapest price on it and get it. under 65 bux will do.	positive
0	Bad cds	I bought this product for my sister's boyfriend cause he loves family guy so much, but my surprise was when he told me that two of the cd's didn't work....was a total dissapoinment!!	negative
1	Funny	I have had this for a month now. Still laughing everyday. If you can't handle the humor go shoot yourself. This is funny I don't care who you are. If you aren't laughing you may need to seek help to find out how to laugh. Thanks for all the laughs "Family Guy"	positive
1	Perfect for Family Guy Fans	I love "Family Guy" and have been wanting to backtrack and buy all the seasons, but wanted to wait until I found an awesome deal. I bought this as an Amazon Deal of Day ($150 value for $60)... I'm pretty sure I heard angels in the background when I saw this.Upon receiving the order, I was a little disappointed to find the casing cracked, but not a major concern since I buy it for the casing. The only major problem when purchasing this party pack is, after Season 3, the discs are not labeled by season, only volume. This will be a little confusing when updating my "Family Guy" library.The added ping pong paddles/ balls/ net and playing cards are an added bonus to this Freakin' Party Pack!	positive
1	Sweet!	I got this for a friend who flipped out! He watched all of the episodes within a week. He loves it! Highly recommended!	positive
1	Learning Business Statistics With Microsoft Excel 2000	This is great book that I have ever read. It helps me to solve a lot of problems in my MBA courses.	positive
0	Bird foood	Hated it - bird refused to eat it, tried slowly introducing, tried only - to starve her into eating it., tried feeding her from my lips etc., still didn't work - switched over to Fruit blend product - which she loves.	negative
0	Caused wing flapping in 1 of 3 eclectus within a week	I was told by my vet that fruit and veggies should be treats. That 100% pellets would be ideal. She is an avian vet so I went from 30% pellets to 95%. The stool was firmer but within 6 days my male was twitching his wings every few sec. It started on day 4 or so but I thought I was imagining it. After going back to a mixed fresh diet the twitching stopped completely. It only took a couple days! I didnt see any odd behavior when they were fed lots of fresh things. They aren't on any medication either.	negative
1	Great for a full size Macaw.	I use this for a Blue & Gold Macaw. Using this smaller Parrot size he makes much less mess with much less waste. He loves the stuff.	positive
1	Good CD	This CD is good for the nursery rhymes, but the tunes are a little lacking. Volumes 1 & 2 are much better at playing longer tunes for each rhyme. The tunes on this CD are fun though, even if they are short. I especially like the rhymes on this CD, even if the songs are short. However, there is one song where the lyrics mention "cut off his head", and another mentions the little old woman in a shoe who "whipped her children, and sent them to bed"....which shocked me a little, as we've fostered a fairly policitally correct and padded environment for our children to grow up in. If you can get past that, this CD really is pretty fun, and I'd bet your child would like it too!	positive
1	Humor and good music - How could ya go wrong?	Joe gives us enjoyable tunes that are easy and fun to listen to over and over in this debut solo album. And just an f.y.i. those long red nails on the cover are my sisters! :) We sure do miss you Joe!!	positive
0	Worthless	This is a collection of black and white drawings most seem to be mosaics others are paintings or stained glass. The reader doesn't get any feeling for shading or texture. This might make a good coloring book for grade schoolers but if you are looking examples to inspire you, get an encyclopedia.	negative
0	Difficult book of design.	This is an extremely difficult book of design. All the designs are in solid black lines with the means for arriving at the pattern in broken lines. You would have to be a math genious to follow the path and go blind in the process.	negative
0	Great While it lasted	Worked ok, Not as large of a frequency range for the noise cancelling as some others. After a week I dropped it from about 4 feet and the noise cancelling stopped working on one side. Should have been able to withstand the fall	negative
0	Non-noise-cancelling with all the disadvantages	The "noise-cancellation" consist of a slight addition of white noise. The sound quality was decent, but irrelevant, since the whole point is cancellation. I'll just wait until I can afford the BOSE QuietComfort 2	negative
1	Baby-boomer looking for decent headphones	I recently purchased these headphone and I am quite satisfied with the product. I contemplated purchasing the more expensive Bose headphone but could not bring myself to pay the $300.00 retail. When I received the Panasonic RP-HC70's, I wore them for 7 hours and found them to be quite comfortable. The noise reduction does not completely eliminate outside noise but for the price and comfort, you can not go wrong. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for good sound quality at a reasonable price.	positive
1	Great Value for the Money	I purchased these headphones after seeing them on sale at Amazon. The industry standard for noise-cancelling headphones are made by Bose. However, these are a great value if you do not want to spend that kind of money.As with some of the prior reviewers, I would emphasize that this does not block out all noise. It is great for low-frequency, constant noise such as that of airplane engines, buses, and other sources. You will still hear background sound, just at a much reduced level.The ear-pieces are padded and comfortable, but could be a little larger. There is an audible hiss when the noise cancelling is turned on. However, it is more than compensated for by the reduction in noise. The unit operates on 1 AAA battery.Also, just a side note, you do not have to have the headphones plugged into a source for the noise cancelling to work.	positive
0	Waste of $$$$$!	Problem with these is simple....The ear pads do not cover your ears completely so ambient noise is let in! Especially on an airplane!!! Even with the volume cranked all the way up, I could not hear the dialogue on my DVD! Worthless! Flimsy too! Different noise cancelling settings a waste! Save your money...Get the Maxell HP-NCII headphones instead..About the same price & do a much better job!	negative
0	Not much of a headphone or noise canceling	These would best be described as slight noise reduction not canceling. I tried it at home where my pc fan is quite loud and I could barely tell the different. At work it barely effected the drone of the leave blowers that run for 30 minutes. It effects voices not at all. The headphone have little base with reduction on. These headphones provide practically no isolation from your environment. I'm returning them and looking for something that is effective. I rated 2 stars becasue they are not complete junk.	negative
0	Ahhhhhhhh	Not even big enough for my head,no high end on frequency.Gave them to relative and bought SONY	negative
1	Did Their Job	I'm a teenager, and like any other I ride a bus in the morning. To try and start my day off ok I like to listen to my cd player or portable radio. But the people on my bus like to start their day off by talking. Although the converstaions were still there, my music seemed to override them. These headphones drastically made my day better.	positive
0	No up to scratch	Sorry to disgree with the other reviewers, but I found the performance of these headphones well below par. I bought them for my wife before we flew to Germany, and I have tried them out on a number of flights since. I have found myself switching the noise cancelling on and off a number of times to check if it is actually doing anything.I also found that wearing the headphones for any longer than 1 hour makes my ears hurt because of the pressure on them.In comparison, I also have the a set of Targus headphones, and these are brilliant. When I switch on the noise cancelling, I have to turn the audio on the in-flight entertainment down to it's lowest level, otherwise it is too loud now that all the background sound is removed.Regards,Brett	negative
0	Hate the hiss	These headphones work, but . . . there is a definite drop in volume when the cancellation feature is on, plus an annoying hiss (like tape hiss) that can get in the way of enjoying what you're listening to. I guess for the price they're okay, but if you're any kind of audiophile you'll want to go elsewhere.	negative
0	uncomfortable and not very effective	The main problem is they fit ON the ears instead of over them. First problem is that this makes them tiring and irritating to wear for more than a short time and, second, the lack of an over-ear cuff doesn't let them cut out much ambient noise as plenty still comes thru the configuration of the ear (and I don't have large ears).	negative
0	music quality reduction headphones	The main problem with these headphones is the noticeable reduction in music quality as soon as you turn the noise-cancellation on... It's like the noise-cancelling cancels the music sound as well, and that was not acceptable to me. The bass and the mid-lower range is less audible, to a point where an entire portion of the music disappears. Not to mention there's a significant volume drop and the music suddenly seems "far", very strange feeling...Other factors that made me return the headphones:- hiss: so lound that it becomes clearly part of the music/radio dialogs. Horrible...- not enough noise reduction- The battery holder has a max/mid noise cancellation switch.: that's a joke!!! It has absolutely no discernable function. totally ridiculous!Summary: avoid these headphones!	negative
0	Piece of garbage	These headphones don't do what they are supposed to, cancel external noise. On top if it adds it own hiss. In other words, you are better off using a regular pair of headphones (or one of the noise blocking earbuds) than these "noise-cancelling" ones. I bought mine about three years back, had thrown them into my basement because they did not work, but just rediscovered them after moving to a new place. I'm astonished this model is still selling. Don't buy it; I'm about to try the Sony MDR-NC6.	negative
1	Beautiful and Functional	My sister loved this feeder, I got it for her birthday. It is so pretty I will have to order one for myself.	positive
0	drip drip drip	this feeder leaked from the get go..and i tried everything i could to stop it! i would not buy this expensive product!	negative
0	Leaks attracts bees	I really love the look of this hummingbird feeder, and the hummingbirds were definitely drawn in too. The only problem is that it leaked. The design problem that caused the leaks is the 2 piece base. The copper metal cover sits on top of the plastic basin and the glass bottle screws into the plastic base, compressing the metal top down against the plastic base. The seam between the 2 parts seemed to leak the most when it was hot out, and once it did, bees were all over it. I know bees can be a problem with many hummingbird feeders, but the problem was much worse since the leaking would cause sugar to coat the surface of the base. I wish I could find a way to keep the bees away because I love the looks of this feeder, but there's no simple way to keep it from leaking.	negative
1	attractive addition to the garden	this is a pretty hummingbird feeder, and a step up from the usual red plastic feeders sold in every big box store. It makes a nice addition to the garden, but I gave it 4 stars instead of five because it holds too much, and it can be difficult to clean the inside of the glass.	positive
0	hummingbird feeder	I purchased this feeder because I thought it was so beautiful. I am still disappointed, and using it, but no longer in the front yard over my porch, because it will not hang straight and drips continually. I now hang it behind my house over grass. It also leaks from around the connection where the bottle and feed openings are. Very disappointed in its design.	negative
0	Leaks	I bought two of these strictly because they were glass and not plastic. They both had a slow leak. Sticky sugar water always attracts ants - so I constantly had to take the hose and spray down the sticky mess below the feeder. Also, I agree w another poster - the birds are not attracted to these, I had to tie red ribbon to it to "flag them down". In the end, I went back to the cheaper, non-leaking, bright red plastic feeders and all was better - much.	negative
0	Broke on the first fill	I was very pleased with the appearance and size of this feeder and liked that it didn't have any plastic on it. When I was filling it for the first time, I was a little frustrated at the size of the opening, as it was too small to fill without spilling (unless you used a funnel). The real problem came right as it was becoming full, though. I was holding it by the neck, and I guess the neck was too weak to hold the weight of so much water. The glass cracked and the neck broke right off. I was so disappointed!My advice is to not buy this one. If you do decide to buy it, make sure that you support the bottom (actually the top, but it will be upside down) of the glass while filling it rather than simply holding it by the neck.	negative
0	cheap	I was very disappointed in this feeder. It looked so pretty in the picture, but the feeder in reality looks cheap.	negative
0	Looks cheap in person	This item is much cheaper looking in person, not a copper finish like I mistakenly assumed, but a shiny metallic rosy gold and the metalwork bends with a slight touch. What a disappointment, as this was to be a gift, but I will shop at a big box hardware store to find a similar but higher quality item. This looks like a dollar store purchase, way overpriced! This is the first time I have been disappointed by an Amazon purchase.	negative
0	nice while it lasted	This feeder was great the first year, but the screw in connection cracked and leaked after one season	negative
0	It only lasted one season...	I bought this product last year for the Hummingbirds and it worked great at first but with in months it began to rust out and now the glass has broken off where it screws into the dispenser. Looks great for display but not the best feeder - have thrown it away since it is not repairable.	negative
1	Very nice but has one flaw	This is a wonderful feeder. A little large, so just don't fill it all the way and you won't have to waste so much nectar (as you will most likely have to dump it before all of it is gone). The one flaw is that the bottom is in two pieces and they are hard to align when screwing it on. You have to watch carefully so it won't be crooked when you are done. That is what makes it leak. It usually takes me a couple times adjusting before it is right. Other than that, it is beautiful and my hummers love it!	positive
0	Beautiful but flawed	This was my first feeder. I bought it based on looks and the overall good ratings. I had two birds visiting it in no time. Unfortunately I don't have a garden to attract more so they didn't go through the nectar very fast, and I had to toss 2/3. This feeder has a narrow opening making it challenging to clean. First time I went to clean it, I discovered a crack in the neck, that wasn't there the first time I filled it up. I wont be putting this back up for fear that the bottom half is going to break off completely.	negative
0	Too big	I think this looks so much nicer in the picture than in real life. I bought this to give as a gift but will keep instead. It is really large and therefore takes away from the design. The copper coloring is overwhelming. I had bought because of value and free shipping, but would not recommend.	negative
0	Poorly designed, impossible to clean properly	I purchased this hummingbird feeder solely based on the aesthetic value: I thought it looked very pretty.I have had several feeders in the past. But this one beats them all in terms of inconvenience. This feeder is extremely difficult to clean properly: because of its tear-drop shape, you have to find a trick so it doesn't fall in the sink while you're rinsing it. The only method I found was to put it into the garbage disposal...Then the challenge is to find a bottle brush that will reach the end of the bottle...Then you have to shape the brush so that it will clean the sides...When you've managed to do all this, you still have to screw it back properly: again, not easy: somehow the thread isn't well manufactured. So that sometimes when you put it back on, it leaks everywhere...I'm through with this feeder, however pretty it looks, I'm on the market for another design.Seriously, this product leads to a lot of frustration!	negative
0	ugly and impossible to clean	The product arrived looking like it had been manufactured by a three year old. The vine wrap was clumped near the base and uneven, barely holding the glass globe. Figuring the hummingbirds wouldn't care how it looked, I took it apart and cleaned it, only to find the opening is so small I couldn't get a bottle brush in it. I rinsed it and set it out to air dry, but it took three days, since no air could get in. A bird feeder which can't be cleaned will only breed mold and eventually poisen the very birds I wanted to feed. I'm returning it, or if that's not allowed, I'll throw it away.	negative
1	Nice Look	It's a nice look but it doesn't attract a ton of hummingbirds. Last year was my first year using it so I'm hopeful that the word will get out and the feeder will have a lot more activity this year.I do want to mention that it comes apart easily for cleaning, but when you put it back together make sure that the plastic bottom "snaps" back into the metal feeder part or you will get leakage.	positive
0	Pretty but too large!	Here's the thing - hummingbirds are very territorial. When one is at the feeder, it'll get mad if any others try to feed at the same time. So the problem with this feeder is not really a problem with the feeder, it's a problem with what's being fed! Because they're so temperamental, generally only one bird feeds at a time. So the nectar lasts forever. And if you read the directions on most nectars, they should be drunk within a week, two at most. Which just doesn't happen with this feeder.I've also noticed the base leak if the nectar is left in too long. :(One other thing - I think there is not enough true red on this feeder to really attract the birds. I have a much smaller one that only has a red plastic base, and they go GAGA over it!! It's a pretty garden piece though. So, form over function...? Up to you. I wouldn't recommend it though.	negative
0	Don't buy this one.	My husband gave this to me as a present and I was so disappointed. After been outside for about 6 weeks, I saw no hummers and it just rusted. I don't think the hummers can see it since it is not red. Unless you have a lot of hummers already that are established, then I would not get this one. I would get the Perky Pet Oasis since I had that one up for less than and hour and I started seeing little hummers.	negative
1	Looks Great and the Birds Love It!	I'm very pleased with the artistic look of the hummingbird feeder. It is even more beautiful in person! It has been holding up well to the freezing temperatures (I was worried about that), wind, rain, and everything that our winter has thrown at it, and the birds keep coming (we live in Western Washington)! The only complaint I have is that it does not hang perfectly straight - it is a little off-balance. I bent the top hanging hook a bit to adjust it and it seems better. All told, I would buy it again simply because it looks so good!	positive
0	Tight fit for the iPod	This would be probably be best for a mini. It was just too tight for the color screen iPod. After working hard to squeeze it in, I had to pull it back out to make any selections on the iPod. It looks good and fits well but it's just not 'user-friendly'.	negative
1	Works great...minor issue	This is a great belt that is super comfortable and fits a variety of things (I've put my Blackberry, iPhone, iPod and even my new Droid in it at various times. My only issue was that on one of my main runs last year one of the plastic pieces broke off so it wouldn't stay tight...I just tied it in a knot and have kept using it (I have run a few hundred miles with this thing). I also like that it has an extra little zipper pocket on the back for keys, pills, or whatever.	positive
1	Works Great	Best I've found on Amazon. I tried the Tune Belt (link below), and my phone rocketed out of the holder on my valuted snow pile landing.Tune Belt Sport Belt for iPhone and More (Fits iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, 2G & 1G; Blackberry Bold, Curve, Storm & Tour; Nokia N97; Palm Pre and many more)The only design flaw with this on is that the plastic window makes it somewhat difficult to insert and remove the phone. I personally keep the payload in the small of my back and have no need for a viewing window, so I say take it out altogether.--Scott	positive
1	Just what I needed	This product works perfectly for vacations or long runs. I can fit several items (phone, keys, money, etc.) into the pouch without it feeling bulky or heavy. I've even used it in a half-marathon to hold my gels and supplements. It worked great!	positive
0	has mineral oil	Don't understand why mineral must be in most hair care products when there are so many different oils that are healthier. Had to give it away to some one that didn't mind having it.	negative
0	DISAPPOINTTED PACKAGE	I DID'NT EVEN GET TO USE IT BECAUSE OF THE PACKAGE FROM THE COMPANY IT CAME FROM THE OIL WAS SPILL ALL IN THE BAG	negative
0	Too much slack and ugly too	I wasn't hoping for perfection, but I'm disappointed in this bumper. Our rectangular table is 136 inches, and there is way too much slack for this bumper to do much good. If our 10-month-old pulls on it to pull up, it easily stretches a good 3-4 inches away from the table edge. It doesn't do it's job protecting her and she's actually bumped her head on the table when cruising on the table and plopping back down. Any contact with the bumper and it just sags such that it no longer covers the edge. The corners are awkward, too. They are just fabric covered pads, and they tend to stick out from the bumper visibly. Overall, the pad is pretty ugly. The light grey color sticks out like a sore thumb against our wood table. I was hoping to avoid having to use the kind of bumper that you have to stick on, but I'll be ordering some of those now.	negative
1	It stretches!!!!	I purchased this a few months ago and based off the other reviews I ordered the small hoping it would fit my larger coffee table...it didn't. It did fit the smaller coffee table but now that my son has pulled himself up using this it has stretched out...A LOT. I am now constantly pulling it back up so it covers edges of table. I also have to watch for my son's fingers getting stuck between bumper and table. Definitely by smaller than you think since it will stretch. I must say that I love the fact there is no tape to ruin furniture and my son has quickly learned to pull himself up by grabbing this bumper.	positive
0	wont fit all!	got the medium as my table is 150 inches, it was so big it sagged and didn't cover any edges, returned ordered the small, and it wont come close to fitting the table, so the product is being sent back again, neither will fit our pretty average sized coffee table	negative
0	Size DOES matter	This product seemed Ideal! Says fits measurements between bla bla bla to bla bla bla....well I bought the Medium first as my table measurements were within those measurements, it was WAY to big. So i tried the small and it was way to small! There was no way to make either of them work. This Would be a great thing if they actually fit. I did read some of the other reviews, I guess if your table is the magic size it works great.	negative
0	bumper too big or too small	My table is about 141 inches around. The small sized bumper was too small, and the medium is too big. We're using the big one and it kind of hangs onto the table.	negative
0	Read this for help with the size!!!	I was extremely annoyed to find NO information on this website about the dimensions of this bumper. I took a guess and ordered the small for our square wooden 40" x 40" table. It didn't come close to fitting and now apparently I have to pay to ship it back to Amazon. I have now ordered the medium, which will probably be too large and I'll have to pay to ship that one back as well. This website is lacking some vital product information that would be helpful to consumers. Very disappointing experience.	negative
1	Saves my daughters head!	I have a ten month old who is pulling up on everything especially the wrought iron coffee table. I purchased the Small Table Edge Bumper and it works great. It provides plenty of cushion to protect her head when she loses her balance. It's even good for my 3 year old son who can get rowdy at times and has been known to hurt himself on the table. My table is 142 in. and the small fits perfect. Hope this helps others in making their decision.	positive
1	ugly and big, but it works	We use this to keep kids from hitting the corner on a table with somewhat sharp edges. It's a little bigger than we needed, so it looks lumpy, but it works and no one has sliced their heads open on the sharp corners!	positive
0	Samll Expandable table adge Bumber	Bumber is soft, but it is too bulky and brings more attention to the tables than needed. Easy to pull down.	negative
0	Useless	About 2 minutes after we put this bumper on the coffee table, my 9-month-old son pulled up on it, easily pulled the bumper away from the edge, lost his balance (because he was holding the stretchy bumper instead of the table), and smacked his chin hard on the sharp edge of the table. Needless to say we are returning this useless product.	negative
1	Sewed to Fit	My coffee table was too small for this product, but it was the smallest we could find. I just cut it and sewed it to fit and it works wonders. I wouldn't be without it!	positive
1	Simple yet Difficult	I bought it for a slightly odd shaped table. It took some effort, but I finally got it to fit. So far, it has not been tested, thank goodness.	positive

KATELAND

I think the title of this documentry, TRAPPED IN AN ELEVATOR could be abit misleading. "ELEVATORS" would be more of an appropriate title for it. This is more of a study on elevators. How they looked when first invented. The purpose they serve all over the world. The workings of them. What makes them go UP and DOWN. The mechanical side of it all. How they were able to build skyscrapers, showing that elevators made it all possible. You were shown a video of a person trapped in an elevator. But the quality of the video was so poor, you were unable to make anything from it. Iv given this DVD just 2 stars. Because i grew very tired of watching Elevators.

Nice design, obnoxious cooling fan

This unit is a nice size and well-designed. But the cooling fan is amazingly loud. Loud enough to hear in a moving car. Loud enough that if I saw someone about to pull this out of their bag on the plane, I would offer my seat to someone else. It seems the designers realized this, and added a variable fan speed control to the design. So the unit goes from loud when it is idle to obnoxious when it is under load. What really frustrated me is that I called Targus and asked specifically if this unit has a fan. They said "no". They even double-checked. Grumble...

works, but incredibly annoying whine

Pro: Works as advertised.Con: This device makes a constant, loud, high-pitched whine, because it uses a tiny cooling fan that must be spun at high RPM to be effective. While in use, it sounds as if you have a mosquito inside your ear. Road noise at highway speeds and a loud radio are not enough to mask the noise.

Falsified Information

This book is filled with falsified information regarding Armenian history and Armenian origins. Armenians have resided in modern land of Armenia and ancient Armenia, which covered the land from all of Turkey to Azerbaijan, for thousands of years! Armenians now are the original Armenians from thousands of years earlier. We even have our unique blood, traditions, culture, music, and foods that NO OTHER RACE on this planet, HAS or HAD in the past. Overall, this book states things I find on Turkish or Azerbaijani propaganda websites .... Congratulations for attempting to teach other races INFORMATION that is not only false, but dangerous as it affects people's judgments of modern day Armenians and our plead for the recognition of the Armenian Genocide. DISGRACE!

A pleasant surprise....

I will agree with several of the other reviews - this book is not what you 'expect' it to be - but a very good book nonetheless. When I saw the word "companion", I assumed the book would read more as a study guide. I assumed it would read more like a dictionary of people, places, and things, etc.This book is more like a walk through Tolkein's head. Have you ever wondered "Where did the word 'Hobbit' come from?" "How did Tolkein come up with the names of his characters?" "How did he build their personalities?"I found it interesting that Tolkein felt his characters more or less "already existed in another realm and he needed to learn more about them as oppposed to him actually developing them."I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I found it very interesting to learn how such a wonderful story actually came to be... and I thoroughly enjoyed the illustrations.

Entertaining read

I liked this a lot better than most of the reviewers here. The only thing I would change would be the title. There didn't seem to be much, if any, actual terraforming going on, but only periodic waiting to see what transformations of life nature had performed on its own.I also wondered about the computer chips that ran the moon base and how they could keep on running through the millennia. But that's just nitpicking. The story itself was entertaining throughout and the characters (including the ones who finally refused to risk themselves) plausible enough to keep me wondering what would happen next. I also appreciated Tor's $7 price for the Kindle edition.

Entertaining but nothing new

This is a fairly entertaining book. However the plot is very similar to the plot in Stephen Baxter's "Space". The basis for the plot is, however, so much more solid in Baxter's book.The ending of the book is very abrupt. It seems like Williamson runs out of ideas, and hurrily tries to gather his stuff and leave.

A great idea gone so wrong

What a waste of time this was. The start is good, but around page 80 I realized it was going nowhere. It's basically a bunch of unrelated random short stories; you could read the first chapter and the last one or jump from one to another without much trouble. Williamson tries to tell a story of cosmic proportions but fails mainly due to a group of very stupid and shallow characters.I've read some people's thoughts about this novel and believe me, this is NOT hard science fiction. Is just mediocre science fiction. The idea is good if not original, but the result is so, so bad.And Pepe's spanish (that is, Williamson's spanish) is not only ridiculous but insulting.Do not waste your time or your money in this. I'm sure Williamson has a lot of other, GOOD novels from where to choose.

A Disappointment from a Grand Master

This book is really four novelettes retrofitted around "The Ultimate Earth," a novelette which (inexplicably) won all sorts of awards. Like a lot of "novels" that are jury-rigged around extended short stories, this one has all the weaknesses and few of the strengths that other such novels have. (The best novel of this kind is Fred Pohl's Years of the City, a clear masterpiece.) I found the only good section of this book to be the first. It sets up a remarkable premise and sets about unfolding it rather well. But by the time the book ends, you really don't know who is who and the far future earth seems more like modern-day Africa. Not a single imaginative trope in sight.This would be an excellent first book, however. Unfortunately, it isn't. The five star ratings this book has received clearly are given to the man and not the work. This isn't a good place to start with one's reading of Jack Williamson.

Dangerous Instruction Flaw!

So I read the instructions 5 times. It says to connect the fused red wire to the ground side of the fan and another red wire straight from the batter to the hot side of the fan. This is dangerous advice! If the fan shorts it will draw as much power as the red battery wire can take until it melts and might cause a fire. MAKE SURE YOU ADD A SUITABLE SIZE FUSE ON THE RED WIRE TO THE BATTERY (and the fuse should be close to the battery). Most fans are almost 10 amp so go with a 15 amp fuse. Also, that red wire with the fuse on it from the controller should be Black. I really think who ever the engineer was who designed this should be working at McDonalds instead.Otherwise, just like others I too had one of the wires pop out of their connection (black lead from the sensor).

Like the title says... "Great concept. Flawed execution."The ping-pong paddles, poker chips, etc. all in one box is a hard deal to argue with. Unfortunately, for all of the bells and whistles, one thing is missing: the actual rest of the series.For now, the best bet is "Family Guy - The Complete Collection (Stewie Head Packaging) - (Amazon.com Exclusive)", though a truly ultimate uber boxset is still forthcoming.This box is a novelty. Nothing more. And at the current price tag, it's a very expensive novelty. Personally, I'm waiting until it's done correctly before I buy.

Now I can sell all the other box sets I have for the other seasons and the movie. I am a card player so I think the cards and chips and pretty funny. The ping pong table net and balls I don't think I will use for ping pong.

Perfect for Family Guy Fans

I love "Family Guy" and have been wanting to backtrack and buy all the seasons, but wanted to wait until I found an awesome deal. I bought this as an Amazon Deal of Day ($150 value for $60)... I'm pretty sure I heard angels in the background when I saw this.Upon receiving the order, I was a little disappointed to find the casing cracked, but not a major concern since I buy it for the casing. The only major problem when purchasing this party pack is, after Season 3, the discs are not labeled by season, only volume. This will be a little confusing when updating my "Family Guy" library.The added ping pong paddles/ balls/ net and playing cards are an added bonus to this Freakin' Party Pack!

Caused wing flapping in 1 of 3 eclectus within a week

I was told by my vet that fruit and veggies should be treats. That 100% pellets would be ideal. She is an avian vet so I went from 30% pellets to 95%. The stool was firmer but within 6 days my male was twitching his wings every few sec. It started on day 4 or so but I thought I was imagining it. After going back to a mixed fresh diet the twitching stopped completely. It only took a couple days! I didnt see any odd behavior when they were fed lots of fresh things.

Good CD

This CD is good for the nursery rhymes, but the tunes are a little lacking. Volumes 1 & 2 are much better at playing longer tunes for each rhyme. The tunes on this CD are fun though, even if they are short. I especially like the rhymes on this CD, even if the songs are short. However, there is one song where the lyrics mention "cut off his head", and another mentions the little old woman in a shoe who "whipped her children, and sent them to bed"....which shocked me a little, as we've fostered a fairly policitally correct and padded environment for our children to grow up in. If you can get past that, this CD really is pretty fun, and I'd bet your child would like it too!

Non-noise-cancelling with all the disadvantages

The "noise-cancellation" consist of a slight addition of white noise. The sound quality was decent, but irrelevant, since the whole point is cancellation. I'll just wait until I can afford the BOSE QuietComfort 2

Baby-boomer looking for decent headphones

I recently purchased these headphone and I am quite satisfied with the product. I contemplated purchasing the more expensive Bose headphone but could not bring myself to pay the $300.00 retail. When I received the Panasonic RP-HC70's, I wore them for 7 hours and found them to be quite comfortable. The noise reduction does not completely eliminate outside noise but for the price and comfort, you can not go wrong. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for good sound quality at a reasonable price.

Great Value for the Money

I purchased these headphones after seeing them on sale at Amazon. The industry standard for noise-cancelling headphones are made by Bose. However, these are a great value if you do not want to spend that kind of money.As with some of the prior reviewers, I would emphasize that this does not block out all noise. It is great for low-frequency, constant noise such as that of airplane engines, buses, and other sources. You will still hear background sound, just at a much reduced level.The ear-pieces are padded and comfortable, but could be a little larger. There is an audible hiss when the noise cancelling is turned on. However, it is more than compensated for by the reduction in noise. The unit operates on 1 AAA battery.Also, just a side note, you do not have to have the headphones plugged into a source for the noise cancelling to work.

positive

Waste of $$$$$!

Problem with these is simple....The ear pads do not cover your ears completely so ambient noise is let in! Especially on an airplane!!! Even with the volume cranked all the way up, I could not hear the dialogue on my DVD! Worthless! Flimsy too! Different noise cancelling settings a waste! Save your money...Get the Maxell HP-NCII headphones instead..About the same price & do a much better job!

Not much of a headphone or noise canceling

These would best be described as slight noise reduction not canceling. I tried it at home where my pc fan is quite loud and I could barely tell the different. At work it barely effected the drone of the leave blowers that run for 30 minutes. It effects voices not at all. The headphone have little base with reduction on. These headphones provide practically no isolation from your environment. I'm returning them and looking for something that is effective. I rated 2 stars becasue they are not complete junk.

I bought them for my wife before we flew to Germany, and I have tried them out on a number of flights since. I have found myself switching the noise cancelling on and off a number of times to check if it is actually doing anything.I also found that wearing the headphones for any longer than 1 hour makes my ears hurt because of the pressure on them.In comparison, I also have the a set of Targus headphones, and these are brilliant. When I switch on the noise cancelling, I have to turn the audio on the in-flight entertainment down to it's lowest level, otherwise it is too loud now that all the background sound is removed.Regards,Brett

Hate the hiss

These headphones work, but . . . there is a definite drop in volume when the cancellation feature is on, plus an annoying hiss (like tape hiss) that can get in the way of enjoying what you're listening to. I guess for the price they're okay, but if you're any kind of audiophile you'll want to go elsewhere.

uncomfortable and not very effective

The main problem is they fit ON the ears instead of over them. First problem is that this makes them tiring and irritating to wear for more than a short time and, second, the lack of an over-ear cuff doesn't let them cut out much ambient noise as plenty still comes thru the configuration of the ear (and I don't have large ears).

music quality reduction headphones

The main problem with these headphones is the noticeable reduction in music quality as soon as you turn the noise-cancellation on... It's like the noise-cancelling cancels the music sound as well, and that was not acceptable to me. The bass and the mid-lower range is less audible, to a point where an entire portion of the music disappears. Not to mention there's a significant volume drop and the music suddenly seems "far", very strange feeling...Other factors that made me return the headphones:- hiss: so lound that it becomes clearly part of the music/radio dialogs. Horrible...- not enough noise reduction- The battery holder has a max/mid noise cancellation switch.: that's a joke!!! It has absolutely no discernable function. totally ridiculous!Summary: avoid these headphones!

Piece of garbage

These headphones don't do what they are supposed to, cancel external noise. On top if it adds it own hiss. In other words, you are better off using a regular pair of headphones (or one of the noise blocking earbuds) than these "noise-cancelling" ones. I bought mine about three years back, had thrown them into my basement because they did not work, but just rediscovered them after moving to a new place. I'm astonished this model is still selling. Don't buy it; I'm about to try the Sony MDR-NC6.

Leaks attracts bees

I really love the look of this hummingbird feeder, and the hummingbirds were definitely drawn in too. The only problem is that it leaked. The design problem that caused the leaks is the 2 piece base. The copper metal cover sits on top of the plastic basin and the glass bottle screws into the plastic base, compressing the metal top down against the plastic base. The seam between the 2 parts seemed to leak the most when it was hot out, and once it did, bees were all over it. I know bees can be a problem with many hummingbird feeders, but the problem was much worse since the leaking would cause sugar to coat the surface of the base. I wish I could find a way to keep the bees away because I love the looks of this feeder, but there's no simple way to keep it from leaking.

attractive addition to the garden

this is a pretty hummingbird feeder, and a step up from the usual red plastic feeders sold in every big box store. It makes a nice addition to the garden, but I gave it 4 stars instead of five because it holds too much, and it can be difficult to clean the inside of the glass.

hummingbird feeder

I purchased this feeder because I thought it was so beautiful. I am still disappointed, and using it, but no longer in the front yard over my porch, because it will not hang straight and drips continually. I now hang it behind my house over grass. It also leaks from around the connection where the bottle and feed openings are. Very disappointed in its design.

Leaks

I bought two of these strictly because they were glass and not plastic. They both had a slow leak. Sticky sugar water always attracts ants - so I constantly had to take the hose and spray down the sticky mess below the feeder. Also, I agree w another poster - the birds are not attracted to these, I had to tie red ribbon to it to "flag them down". In the end, I went back to the cheaper, non-leaking, bright red plastic feeders and all was better - much.

Broke on the first fill

I was very pleased with the appearance and size of this feeder and liked that it didn't have any plastic on it. When I was filling it for the first time, I was a little frustrated at the size of the opening, as it was too small to fill without spilling (unless you used a funnel). The real problem came right as it was becoming full, though. I was holding it by the neck, and I guess the neck was too weak to hold the weight of so much water. The glass cracked and the neck broke right off. I was so disappointed!My advice is to not buy this one. If you do decide to buy it, make sure that you support the bottom (actually the top, but it will be upside down) of the glass while filling it rather than simply holding it by the neck.

I was very disappointed in this feeder. It looked so pretty in the picture, but the feeder in reality looks cheap.

Looks cheap in person

This item is much cheaper looking in person, not a copper finish like I mistakenly assumed, but a shiny metallic rosy gold and the metalwork bends with a slight touch. What a disappointment, as this was to be a gift, but I will shop at a big box hardware store to find a similar but higher quality item. This looks like a dollar store purchase, way overpriced! This is the first time I have been disappointed by an Amazon purchase.

It only lasted one season...

I bought this product last year for the Hummingbirds and it worked great at first but with in months it began to rust out and now the glass has broken off where it screws into the dispenser. Looks great for display but not the best feeder - have thrown it away since it is not repairable.

Very nice but has one flaw

This is a wonderful feeder. A little large, so just don't fill it all the way and you won't have to waste so much nectar (as you will most likely have to dump it before all of it is gone). The one flaw is that the bottom is in two pieces and they are hard to align when screwing it on. You have to watch carefully so it won't be crooked when you are done. That is what makes it leak. It usually takes me a couple times adjusting before it is right. Other than that, it is beautiful and my hummers love it!

Beautiful but flawed

This was my first feeder. I bought it based on looks and the overall good ratings. I had two birds visiting it in no time. Unfortunately I don't have a garden to attract more so they didn't go through the nectar very fast, and I had to toss 2/3. This feeder has a narrow opening making it challenging to clean. First time I went to clean it, I discovered a crack in the neck, that wasn't there the first time I filled it up. I wont be putting this back up for fear that the bottom half is going to break off completely.

Too big

I think this looks so much nicer in the picture than in real life. I bought this to give as a gift but will keep instead. It is really large and therefore takes away from the design. The copper coloring is overwhelming. I had bought because of value and free shipping, but would not recommend.

Poorly designed, impossible to clean properly

I purchased this hummingbird feeder solely based on the aesthetic value: I thought it looked very pretty.I have had several feeders in the past. But this one beats them all in terms of inconvenience. This feeder is extremely difficult to clean properly: because of its tear-drop shape, you have to find a trick so it doesn't fall in the sink while you're rinsing it. The only method I found was to put it into the garbage disposal...Then the challenge is to find a bottle brush that will reach the end of the bottle...Then you have to shape the brush so that it will clean the sides...When you've managed to do all this, you still have to screw it back properly: again, not easy: somehow the thread isn't well manufactured. So that sometimes when you put it back on, it leaks everywhere...I'm through with this feeder, however pretty it looks, I'm on the market for another design.Seriously, this product leads to a lot of frustration!

ugly and impossible to clean

The product arrived looking like it had been manufactured by a three year old. The vine wrap was clumped near the base and uneven, barely holding the glass globe. Figuring the hummingbirds wouldn't care how it looked, I took it apart and cleaned it, only to find the opening is so small I couldn't get a bottle brush in it. I rinsed it and set it out to air dry, but it took three days, since no air could get in. A bird feeder which can't be cleaned will only breed mold and eventually poisen the very birds I wanted to feed. I'm returning it, or if that's not allowed, I'll throw it away.

Nice Look

It's a nice look but it doesn't attract a ton of hummingbirds. Last year was my first year using it so I'm hopeful that the word will get out and the feeder will have a lot more activity this year.I do want to mention that it comes apart easily for cleaning, but when you put it back together make sure that the plastic bottom "snaps" back into the metal feeder part or you will get leakage.

Pretty but too large!

Here's the thing - hummingbirds are very territorial. When one is at the feeder, it'll get mad if any others try to feed at the same time. So the problem with this feeder is not really a problem with the feeder, it's a problem with what's being fed! Because they're so temperamental, generally only one bird feeds at a time. So the nectar lasts forever. And if you read the directions on most nectars, they should be drunk within a week, two at most. Which just doesn't happen with this feeder.I've also noticed the base leak if the nectar is left in too long. :(One other thing - I think there is not enough true red on this feeder to really attract the birds. I have a much smaller one that only has a red plastic base, and they go GAGA over it!! It's a pretty garden piece though. So, form over function...? Up to you. I wouldn't recommend it though.

Don't buy this one.

My husband gave this to me as a present and I was so disappointed. After been outside for about 6 weeks, I saw no hummers and it just rusted. I don't think the hummers can see it since it is not red. Unless you have a lot of hummers already that are established, then I would not get this one. I would get the Perky Pet Oasis since I had that one up for less than and hour and I started seeing little hummers.

Looks Great and the Birds Love It!

I'm very pleased with the artistic look of the hummingbird feeder. It is even more beautiful in person! It has been holding up well to the freezing temperatures (I was worried about that), wind, rain, and everything that our winter has thrown at it, and the birds keep coming (we live in Western Washington)! The only complaint I have is that it does not hang perfectly straight - it is a little off-balance. I bent the top hanging hook a bit to adjust it and it seems better. All told, I would buy it again simply because it looks so good!

Tight fit for the iPod

This would be probably be best for a mini. It was just too tight for the color screen iPod. After working hard to squeeze it in, I had to pull it back out to make any selections on the iPod. It looks good and fits well but it's just not 'user-friendly'.

Works great...minor issue

This is a great belt that is super comfortable and fits a variety of things (I've put my Blackberry, iPhone, iPod and even my new Droid in it at various times. My only issue was that on one of my main runs last year one of the plastic pieces broke off so it wouldn't stay tight...I just tied it in a knot and have kept using it (I have run a few hundred miles with this thing). I also like that it has an extra little zipper pocket on the back for keys, pills, or whatever.

Works Great

Best I've found on Amazon. I tried the Tune Belt (link below), and my phone rocketed out of the holder on my valuted snow pile landing.Tune Belt Sport Belt for iPhone and More (Fits iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, 2G & 1G; Blackberry Bold, Curve, Storm & Tour; Nokia N97; Palm Pre and many more)The only design flaw with this on is that the plastic window makes it somewhat difficult to insert and remove the phone. I personally keep the payload in the small of my back and have no need for a viewing window, so I say take it out altogether.--Scott

Too much slack and ugly too

I wasn't hoping for perfection, but I'm disappointed in this bumper. Our rectangular table is 136 inches, and there is way too much slack for this bumper to do much good. If our 10-month-old pulls on it to pull up, it easily stretches a good 3-4 inches away from the table edge. It doesn't do it's job protecting her and she's actually bumped her head on the table when cruising on the table and plopping back down. Any contact with the bumper and it just sags such that it no longer covers the edge. The corners are awkward, too. They are just fabric covered pads, and they tend to stick out from the bumper visibly. Overall, the pad is pretty ugly. The light grey color sticks out like a sore thumb against our wood table. I was hoping to avoid having to use the kind of bumper that you have to stick on, but I'll be ordering some of those now.

It stretches!!!!

I purchased this a few months ago and based off the other reviews I ordered the small hoping it would fit my larger coffee table...it didn't. It did fit the smaller coffee table but now that my son has pulled himself up using this it has stretched out...A LOT. I am now constantly pulling it back up so it covers edges of table. I also have to watch for my son's fingers getting stuck between bumper and table. Definitely by smaller than you think since it will stretch. I must say that I love the fact there is no tape to ruin furniture and my son has quickly learned to pull himself up by grabbing this bumper.

wont fit all!

Size DOES matter

This product seemed Ideal! Says fits measurements between bla bla bla to bla bla bla....well I bought the Medium first as my table measurements were within those measurements, it was WAY to big. So i tried the small and it was way to small! There was no way to make either of them work. This Would be a great thing if they actually fit. I did read some of the other reviews, I guess if your table is the magic size it works great.

My table is about 141 inches around. The small sized bumper was too small, and the medium is too big. We're using the big one and it kind of hangs onto the table.

Read this for help with the size!!!

I was extremely annoyed to find NO information on this website about the dimensions of this bumper. I took a guess and ordered the small for our square wooden 40" x 40" table. It didn't come close to fitting and now apparently I have to pay to ship it back to Amazon. I have now ordered the medium, which will probably be too large and I'll have to pay to ship that one back as well. This website is lacking some vital product information that would be helpful to consumers. Very disappointing experience.

Saves my daughters head!

I have a ten month old who is pulling up on everything especially the wrought iron coffee table. I purchased the Small Table Edge Bumper and it works great. It provides plenty of cushion to protect her head when she loses her balance. It's even good for my 3 year old son who can get rowdy at times and has been known to hurt himself on the table. My table is 142 in. and the small fits perfect. Hope this helps others in making their decision.

We use this to keep kids from hitting the corner on a table with somewhat sharp edges. It's a little bigger than we needed, so it looks lumpy, but it works and no one has sliced their heads open on the sharp corners!

About 2 minutes after we put this bumper on the coffee table, my 9-month-old son pulled up on it, easily pulled the bumper away from the edge, lost his balance (because he was holding the stretchy bumper instead of the table), and smacked his chin hard on the sharp edge of the table. Needless to say we are returning this useless product.
