My daughter has this KitchenAid Mixer.  She needed to make a large batch of cookies and I was going to help her.  I have always had the hand mixer type in my kitchen and I was anxious to try her new mixer.  I must say I was hooked after I saw it.  It's a beautiful color of blue and something I would leave out on my countertop instead of hiding it in a cabinet.  The ...

Most people knew basically one type of web browser when I was growing up: Microsoft's Internet Explorer. I used it for years until about 2 years ago when I finally switched to Firefox. Firefox, the current version being 3.5.3, has several advantages over Microsoft's IE. It is generally regarded as being more stable, meaning it does not crash as often or have as many exploits. One of...

I must say I really enjoy this television series. It is really a very sweet show that my kids and I both love. I was really excited to see the series come to DVD. This volume has a few of the episodes including "I like my hair completely the way it is". There are a few bonus features as well including an interview with the author of the book series, a mix and match game, outtakes, and...

This is a great carseat from Eddie Bauer. The carseat has three levels for the straps to fit into, so the carseat grows with your child. The carseat also has armrest which are a comfort item for the child. It also has head rest, so that way if your child falls asleep while driving then they have somwhere to rest their head on. The carseat is a dark gray, so any stains or spills that are spilled...

I have owned this antenna for about 16 years. It has been anchored on the side of my house for years and has survived assorted bad weather and the elements for all these years. I have used it as the main stay antenna for my ham radio station. It was designed for operation on the 10,12,15,17 and 20 meter ham radio bands. Its claim to fame over the years was that when the beam type antenna's ...

I was looking for a nice, sophisticated scent that was good for both at work and at night.  Chanel N. 5 fit the bill.The scent itself is very strong.  So strong, that I don't really see the point in splurging on the Eau de Parfum (EDP), which costs a lot more, and is a lot more concentrated.  I think the diffused version (Eau de Toilette, or EDT) is a lot more appropriat...

I love perfume sets like this one. Estee Lauder is a rather expensive brand for me to buy, so I would think twice - no, ten times - before buying a full-size bottle of their perfume. This set of five mini-bottles gives me a perfect chance to try five different Estee Lauder fragrances. It is not cheap, either, but I get five instead of one, and if I don't like either one of them, it is ...

I got to try this elliptical trainer at a gym, although it is designed for home use, as I was told. Precor EFX 5.21i has 6 pre-programmed workouts to choose from, where the machine will change speed and resistance for you as you exercise. You can also do that manually. There are 20 resistance levels, so if you are a beginner you can start at the easiest one and then work your way up. You ca...

You get a lot for your money when you buy this luggage set: for only around $50, you have three larger rolling bags and two smaller ones. The large bags have retractable handles as well as regular suitcase-like handles on the side, so you can both pull and carry them. Each bag has lots of additional zipped compartments / pockets. The set is made of polyester. It works best for flying: the la...

Finally we got the right car seat for our baby, the Tribute 5 from Evenflo is more than we was expecting from a $59.39 car seat. Now that our baby weights more than 20 lbs, he needs some extra space.  The most important aspect that we were looking in a car seat was safety but also comfort. A car seat under $100, safe and comfortable, we were just asking for too much right. The Tr...

The Logitech X-350 5.1 Surround Sound System is a great affordale complement for any home entertainment system.The speakers are small compared to more expensive Home Thrater systems, but they still pack a punch.  The base of the satellite speakers can be rotated between stand and wall mount, and the ...

My mom owns her own business and she owns a Kodak ESP-5 EasyShare All-in-One Printer, she love the printer so much that she decided to get another one, she even gotten me, and I have to say that I was real impress on the quality of this printer. Also this printer has a 3 inch LCD color screen, plus memory, and USB slots so you can print, crop, and view your picture with no computer need. The Ko...

 I bought this blender for my brother this last Christmas. He had mentioned to me that he had a blender, but it leaked and he was so annoyed by trying to fix it with a new gasket that somehow did not solve the problem. He has had this blender since the 70s! It was a Hamilton Beach blender with that awful gold color popular in that era along with the avocado green. He loves the de...

      I received my RCA stereo as a birthday gift! It has a 5 cd player and has excellent sound. It is silver in color and has really good speakers!My observation is that , the sound is just as good or better then many more exspensive brands. I have enjoyed this stereo and usualy listen to the cd's.  It really looks very nice and I like it because it is not too...

It is one hundred and fifty nine pages of enjoyment. It adds more laughter...

The Bad: The Control system (You have to aim and stay where you are in order to shoot), slow movement (it gets really frustrating when you're trying to run away from zombies). The Good: Brilliant graphics (detailed and artistic designs made it look almost real), you can play in co-op mode (having the ability to have human player or players around enhances the fun and excitement, but only if...

We were in need of a new phone for our family room upstairs and laundry room downstairs.  The one's we had were ancient and the sound quality was not the best anymore.  We looked around for a multi unit cordless set but found that most of the hand units were too small and felt like I had a cell phone in my hand.   We wanted something more solid and could tuck in between our e...

Cakewalk Music Creator 5 is great for quick music recording and editing. It's a GarageBand-like audio editing software. It's alot like GarageBand in the sense that it is simple, and everything is simple, but at the same time it is very complicated to change the effects on the audio. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYBODY WHO IS INEXPERIENCED IN EDITING OR RECORDING!!!!!!!!! The price for this produ...

So I've had the KODAK ESP 5 AiO for about four months now, and I've had to replace the ink cartridges (both color and black) about 3 times.  Sure, they're about $15 dollars each and $21-$24 for both, but doesn't it seem pretty strange that I've had to replace my ink so often?I have my theories:1. I am printing far more than I ever did on my old printer.  I usually ...
