This is significantly more money than the old powdered version, is it a significantly better product?

I found it in the big box stores for less than $6, it seems to be VERY overpriced from Amazon (which happens occasionally with certain products). It really does work incredibly well though. It took care of rust, hard water, and other stains in my toilets and even a badly soapscummed sink. Make sure to treat it with care since it is hydrochloric acid based though, and rinse everything thoroughly after use. It's pretty amazing stuff though.

I never used the powdered version. We had a lot of rust and calcification build - up in the bottom of the bowl. No other cleaner touched it. Kaboom Bowl blaster is the only thing that cleared away everything! We were able to get it cheaper by buying it in bulk.

I think it works better than powder - no paste-like residue. It's more like the consistency of sugar than flour

the powder works faster i was told it goes right in your blood streem while it takes longer for the pills to work ,also you should watch and make sure when you buy it that it has a lot number to avoid scams. i bought pills they are not working as good as the powder.

I would not say its a remarkabe difference but yes, I do think this stuff is abit better than the regular. I found that the odor now takes longer to be noticable and its not so strong. Good price also.

with out a doubt non compared with the type that the unit came with, i had to use the sticky goop you buy after 2 uses. i know the original is more money but not only does it last the best it seems work better, i can feel more current with them, i have the Prospera Electronic Pulse Massager. i use an CD to stick them on while not in use. I can not answer the all day , i never have had to leave on all day.

yes it is. But i don't like this product at all. Only used it once, and it doesn't look smooth on the face at all, even on top of a nice layer of foundation. I changed to bear mineral loose powder, much better. You can find it on amazon too.

Don't bother with the cheap ones. I tried some and they were crappy. You had to put powder in them and it went everywhere and they did not work at all. That is kinda high on the price. I've gotten them at Family Dollar for less, but they do work really well.

My understanding is that this is just a newer more improved version that primarily focuses on hair health/growth. Having used both, I honestly did not see much difference between the two.

the two main buttons on top (left and right click) of the old version have a matte finish that feels very high quality, almost metallic like a media-blasted aluminum. The new ones are shiny plastic and feel MUCH cheaper. Yes they may both function the same, and are both incredibly durable (I travel with mine and drop them constantly), but I'd pay double for the old version over the new. It just FEELS so much nicer to me.

No I don't think it is because they've moved water closer to one of the primary ingredients, it doesn't smell the same and it doesn't feel as luxurious, but it still works well. As you probably know the founder, Jim Markham, sold to L'Oreal in 2007 and now has a new, fifth entry into the market, a product line called ColorProof ... was terribly expensive in only select salons, but it now looks like it is becoming available on Amazon at more reasonable prices. It's supposedly the next generation sulfate-fee, salt free surfactant to gently cleanse hair w/o stripping color. As I run out of my current supply of pureology (still a good deal), I plan to give it a shot to see for myself.

I have used the (real BareMinerals) product for years and I don't think this is the same thing. The packaging is identical but the product is not. The color of this product is more chalky and it has way better coverage. It feels and acts to me like the BareMinerals blemish powder in bisque and that's what I've been using it for.

this one needs to be refrigerated after opening where the powder form you can just mix into water whenever.Personally this one tastes way better than the powder form, i ended up mixing all sorts of water flavoring with the powder one to choke it down....(i might have been adding too much powder and too little water not sure) I believe you get approx the same amount from both but I am not certain. From my personal experience with Isagenix cleanse products.... the liquid is the way to go!

Yes, I believe so! I am no expert, but I don't see any inconsistency in the powder... I am new to it.

It has definitely been refined and improved. It also has over twice the power potential. FYI, your escape batteries are replaceable. They are $49 each.

I have not had good experience with the refillable product. It seems that best results come when using an espresso fine grind, but not powder. Then you need to pack the capsule with your finger, otherwise the water runs through too quickly and the coffee does not brew. Then there is the mess from the process. Bottom line for me was the cost savings were not worth the work, clean-up, and diminished quality.

I just recently got a MyPurMist inhaler, and I think the quality is much better. Understand I've had it less than a month, so I don't have personal data But when I compare the two side by side, the quality of the MyPurMist is better. It is also more comfortable to use in that the steam is finer *and* it is easier to watch TV or do something else while steaming. (The Mabis must sit on a flat surface and you must be at a rather awkward angle when using it). Here is one difference: you have to use very pure water when using the MyPurMist and nothing else must be added. However, it is very effective. I was also amazed the first time I used it at how much steam I got for a very small amount of water. So, yes it is expensive, but I think it is worth it. The Mabis plastic breaking down within a year worries me, because yellow plastic means you are breathing in impurities from the plastic. P.S. This is the review I wrote on the Mabis before I knew about the MyPurMist: http://www.amazon.com/review/RA9N960WWYCRF/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000AYYK5M&linkCode=&nodeID=&tag= I gave it 4 stars because I didn't know there was anything better at the time. I'd probably give it 3 stars now. It is better than nothing, and if you are on a really tight budget and have sinus problems, then by all means get it. But if you can afford it, I'd recommend the MyPurMist.

I imagine it is the same product from what I have been able to figure out . The difference probably is that you can only buy it through a veterinary office and you pay a premium price .. It means the vet examines the animal writes a prescription for the powder then turns around and sells it to you as it is prescription only in his office . It is a win win for him !! Now you know the powder works and next time you can buy it from amazon at a much lower cost to you and no need to go back to the vet if your pet has a reoccurrence of the same symptoms .
