What are the differences between this and the Stanmore? Is this worth the extra 200-ish?

Stanmore is smaller, less wattage and therefore less power/loudness and the Stanmore is Bluetooth whereas the Hanwell is wired....love the Hanwell but cannot compare to the Stanmore because I do not have it. I intentionally opted for the Hanwell for more power and for the limited anniversary edition - besides great sound , the Hanwell is beautiful if you like retro

The Stanmore has an optical, as well as RCA, and the Hanwell only offers the 3.5mm input...

Hey James, That's a good question. There are a few differences between the Stanmore and the Hanwell and they are both great products. The Hanwell has a lot more sound w/o losing sound quality, however, it does not offer Bluetooth connectivity to your MP3, Apple or smartphone products. The question is what's important to you and how much sound do you really want? If Bluetooth connectivity is the single most important factor, than Stanmore is the one for you. If you are listening to music on a small scale like an office or home than the Stanmore is sufficient. The Hanwell is more suitable for listening to musing on a large scale like a cookout in a park, pool party or extra-large indoor room. Both of these products are a great buy and you can't go wrong. This may help you make your decision easier. You can listen to the Stanmore in your local Best Buy to see if that is adequate sound. By the way I own both of them but if I had only one choice, I would choose the Hanwell. I hope this information was helpful. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

I haven't heard the Standmore but would assume it has less of everything. If you don't play rock loud then it probably isn't worth it. Two downsides, one is no Bluetooth and two, no handle to carry it. I don't get the handle omission. I use a high end Audioquest pin to pin cable because the supplied is crap. Better sound quality than Bluetooth so not missing much.

It is well worth the extra$$ The Stanmore is our inside rocker and the Hanwell is for our out building and with the bottom woofer and extra umpf the thing just rocks as hard as a Midwest storm! Comes with Marshall history too and my little son and I got a kick out of the funny owner's manual. Well worth the expense!

Well, you are in luck...I own one of each. I purchased the Stanmore first and ran it for 10+ hours a day for better than a week to break it in. It sounded fantastic. I put my iPod in Jazz mode for best response. I bought the Hanwell after as I am going to put one at our cabin. The Hanwell has better bass and the vocals sound better. The bluetooth on the Stanmore has poor range... If I had to choose just one to keep of the two, it would be the Hanwell. If I want bluetooth, with better range I might add, I just plug in my bluetooth receiver from Belkin.Hope that helps...

Hanwell is a bit larger than the Stanmore and puts out more sound. I compared the two side by side and was happy to purchase the hanwell for the extra money. The Stanmore however does have built in Bluetooth with is a cool feature but from my experience it's better to plug in anyway to avoid disconnection and for best sound quality. If you are looking for pure sound with lots of power, go with Hanwell. If you are looking for something that is a bit easier to carry around with you, Stanmore is still loud enough for most. I just like to blast my music and shake the neighborhood.

The more expensive one is enhanced and the newest version . The 199.00 is the older model.

Although I have both, I prefer the 102 is it is smaller, its blade is thinner and narrower which in my mind makes it a more useful and versatile knife. The 119 is a cool knife also but it is very large and stout. I do love the brown handle versus the black, it is worth the extra cost in my view.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

The Elite is supposed to be 2X more powerful than the regular model. The Elite is the only one I've used so I really can't compare the two.

I prefer the more powerful ones like the 9280. I bought my daughter one also. It is well worth the money..

Hanwell model is heavier, more powerful and more expensive but it's worth the higher price. It sounds really good, the only problem is that it has no handle to pick it up. You'd have to lift the whole thing when moving it from one location to another.

Great question!I can't say for sure, as I have only owned the Berkey Light. However, I have found no shortcomings with the Light, and my guess is that the only major difference would be appearance and weight. The stainless model is nice and shiny, but it's heavier, and probably doesn't work any better than my plastic model. I have experienced none of the issues mentioned by the other poster (weakness and breakage) with my own Berkey Light. Also, with the Light, you can see the water level, which is a BIG plus.Robert

It doesn't look like there is any difference. I'd save the money and go with the less expensive ones.

I did not compare to the model you are asking about. I recommend going to the Best Buy website and using their compare feature to see what the difference is. Could be motor size? Weight? Width of sweeper? Type of roller. The Nimble has a self-cleaning feature on the roller that is lovely. Good luck!

To be honest, I can't necessarily say that it's better or not. The Remington appears more diverse with the multitude of lengths it can trim, the TRYM is good enough. Can you really tell the difference between a 1.5 & 2mm shave, or a 5 and a 6? I can't, the difference in shave lengths is negligible at best. The TRYM is aesthetically pleasing and feels good in hand. The charge base feels cheap and seems low quality but it works fine. The main drawback is that there is no storage for the attachments. Overall it's a very good piece of equipment for the price. And while numerous customers including myself have had issues with the TRYM working properly, their customer service is second to none and will gladly rectify any gripe, no questions asked. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry that i can't offer you a comparison. I like how this bissell cleans, i like all the add-on tools, and the heavy duty sturdiness. It's heavy, practically needs its own garage, and is bulky. We think it's worth the effort. Other reviewers who like it helped me select this model, and we don't regret the purchase especially at the reasonable price. Good luck to you!

To be honest you will not lose many features at all and the 325 watt has easily gone through the toughest of bread doughs. Below is a link to the comparison chart if that helps you decide. It really comes down to if you think the extra $100+ dollars is worth it.http://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node;=2673141011

I am not very savvy to the differences, so my choice was made based on the influence of people that do cleaning. Basically they said that the canister tends to have more sucction and that the upright model tends to break more often/easier. So far mine is doing well, but I confess my usage is minimum as I live alone.

Descriptions are the same. Go with the less expensive one. Difference in price is significant.

The Hanwell is the largest and most powerful of the three. They are all great speakers. The Hanwell is not a blue tooth speaker like the Stanmore, which was ok with me. If I understand correctly you loose some quality through a BT connection Vs a hard line.

I researched both before I purchased mine and determined that there wasn't a significant difference. I'm currently happy with this (but I guess I wouldn't know if something large enough to be damaging has occurred since I installed it). The specs and ratings looked functionally similar, however the more expensive one has a lifetime limited vs 10 year warranty and the $25k equipment coverage.
