Do recent productions "fall apart"?

I use my 'bed buddy' nearly everyday, and when I'm really hurting, I'll keep reheating it in the microwave. I haven't tried freezing it yet as I have the reusable ice packs. I've had no trouble with the craftsmanship of the item. In fact, I'd say I use it a lot more than the average customer, and I'm very pleased with it.

I use mine 5 or 6 times a day and it still looks brand new! I purchased mine after seeing one in action that had been used for over six months day in and day out, inside and out. This is a well made product.

The plastic buckle on our most recent one (ordered in May 2013) partially melted and stretched our of shape so the strap tends to slip. Trying to get Carex to replace it. But we had no problem with another one and used it for years until a seam broke. Duck tape fixed that for a while. All in all, a good product.

I use mine multiple times a day every day. My only complaint is that eventually the velcro closure doesn't hold any more. They only have the velcro on one side and it should have the receiving velcro on the other side.

My husband hasn't used thile body wrap many times, but we haven't had a problem with it falling apart. I purchased the bed buddy for sinuses months back and that has held up quite nicely. I use that one very often.

We used our body wrap nightly for about 6 weeks and occasionally since then. There have been no problems of wear or tear to date.Our only advice when choosing a wrap, if you intend to lay in bed on your back....this style of wrap is not suitable. It's great on top of you...or if you're sitting on a sofa. And stays warm a loooong time.

I have not had any problem with any of the products I have ordered recently from Carex falling apart. I have been completely satisfied.

We've had ours for six months and it's remained intact. I believe it to be a quality product.

Kind of. I really haven't played it in sometime. I would search more on YouTube on it

I have a pair that I have used twice a day, 5 days a week, one hour at a time (for train commuting) for 6.5 years. After each use, I compress the telescoping parts and fold them up. Within the last month or two, I've just started to see some breakdown. The seam is coming apart on one side on the soft plastic that covers the foam on the part that cups the ear and touches the head. I'm still using it without discomfort. One of these months I'll get around to putting a piece of tape on it to stop the tear from spreading.

I don't know the answer to that question, but, I think their quality has diminished to the point where I no longer want to reorder it anymore. It shreds quickly and just falls apart.

No, they don't come apart like some of the cheaper brands. They will loose their shape if you pull really hard on them though. They work great as fun looms but not as regular rubber bands like for tying up a pony tail.

Material is not that good. Mine it is ripping and falling apart. I've repaired and repaired. Not good. I've had it since the end of dec. Binging of jan. And was late getting here on top of that.

Thanks a lot for your thoughtful reply.If only I would have known - I used to have a massive LP collection.Will just have to start a new one : )

Regarding question (1) : it does not degrade quality over time. Or with large files. Be certain to have anything to help cool down the hard drive, tho. If you mean degrading material quality, does not. I have one for over a 1.5 years and no problems whatsoever.On question (2), you cannot add commentary directly. But using a mixer (or a computer) and a microphone, you can. You may need some additional cabling, but it's totally possible. With the mixer solution, you can be certain about volume levels before post producing the videos.

I don't believe so. It's the same as a vinyl record, they're made up of tiny grooves and lands, once they're damaged, it's over. I would just by a new one. Sorry.

No, I found them on you tube. When opening it, sounds like everything thing is breaking apart. We just put duct tape around it instead of trying to glue it back together with a glue gun if you don't really care to much about the looks. Cable has been working fine so far.

No. This is actually the second set I've owned - the first was lost in my last move. They hold up beautifully.

This is true. It's an actual thing in product development called Planned Obsolescence. Watch "the Story of Stuff".

Terris: I've made a lot of recordings using sound forge all musical either from downloaded music or personal CD'S I ripped then burned they came out fine. When I recorded from casette tape to CD the quality was not very good I hope this helps you out

I personally wouldn't recommend buying them. I het a write error on every burning software I've used. I will spend more to get TDK or Verbatim.

No they are not, but with over a year of use I have had no issues with this coming apart or otherwise. I have a feeling this product, like cast iron, will last for at least a lifetime.

It can be once you get past the glitches. They have recently went FTP and have added season 2 story content I believe.

Yes. I listen to a lot of live recordings in which one song seamlessly continues into another. Even with mp3s I don't get an actual gap - more like a slight bump going from one into another.
