Can't make a snowman out of  SLUSH!

Mama mia!  I cannot believe one single soul( considering the number of people it takes to get a book into print and on the market)  in the Jan Karon corner (including Jan herself!) did not have the honesty to say, "This isn't worth the paper it's written on."
Did the publisher actually think the fans of Jan Karon would accept such a...a...book? story? whatever? just because her name was on the cover??????
I thought after the disappointing  WEDDING STORY (everyone is entitled to a "mistake" in judgement now and then) Karon's next tale would be on the caliber of BACK HOME IN MITFORD.  This only goes to prove that even a  good author and a very distinguished publishing house does not equal a good book.
Shame, shame on all those involved in the biggest sham this holiday season!  Surely many of their Christmas "stockings" will be full of coal this year.  Coal and slush!
Terry, a very disappointed reader

The unit freezes up in the intake area vents and above the catch tank and does not work properly.  Perhaps you just cannot use these in the winter?  That's why I bought it however- to remove moisture from my trailer in the winter. Disappointing as Seattle Weather does not really get that cold- In fact temps were above freezing the past 10 days and the unit still froze up.

Reindeer is so cute! Buyer Beware! Believe the negative comments on here! My reindeer never worked at all! Also, you don't have access to the battery port. It is totally sewn in the reindeer. My daughter was a little disappointed but couldn't part with it to be returned! Will not buy a Beverly Hills stuffed animal again!

This device does not create a slushy as easily as it claims. You have to put it in the freezer.

Pain in the BUTT to replace, but did the job.  Snow thrower is throwing snow again!

The reason for the pain is the design of the paddle is so that you need to hold it and force it around to the right curve, AND put a torx head bolt through a hole with no room for a wrench....all at the same time.  You need like 6 hands to do this quickly...and you get to do it 4 times!

I was so disappointed that this contraption turned out to be too flimsy and wobbly (all plastic) to actually use.  The videos show this contraption doing a great job clearing snow, but the one I received was impossible to use effectively.  Since it was past time to return it for a refund, I ended up taking the thing to Goodwill to get rid of it....What a disappointment!

The music box on the snow globe doesn't work.  We just opened it for Christmas morning.  It's the only thing my 3 year old asked Santa for and he specifically wanted a musical one so We are really disappointed.  Now to figure out how to get a replacement.

Do not buy these for snow play or snowboarding! I purchased these for a snowboard trip. I was under the impression the pants would not absorb and go through. They are not water repellent nor water resistant. My son was wet after snow play! It was in powder too (mammoth)! No icy wet snow! Poor quality. Nobody wants to deal with a child in cold wet clothes on the slopes or playing in he snow! I had to go to a local shop to buy some buttons which were awesome!!!

Not good for snow  and ice in the Chicagoland area! It doesn't allow for precipitation to pass through so it all just remains on top and weighs down the trampoline!

I am astonished that people are giving this thing good reviews.  We got it a few years ago and nobody who has tried the thing was at all pleased.  IT just throws snow in front of you and you have to keep moving the snow out of the way.  It's hard to push and in general is pretty worthless.  I could not recommend it to anyone.  Yes, I hate it.  It's a total waste of money.

I've had an ice cream maker for years and when it needed replacing I purchased the Deni 5101. All seems well until the ice cream starts to thicken (about 6 minutes into it) on the bottom, it stops the paddle from moving and then the canister just stops turning. Maybe the motor is not powerful enough to keep the canister turning to make the ice cream. All I can do with the "slush" is put it in the fridge to
thicken & harden it somewhat. What a disappointment!!
I wasn't smart enough to save the invoice so therefore I can't return it.

Instruction on the back is so small I could not read it. In any case there is no direction on how much water to use. I used 2 oz of water, waited about a minute, and it made about 1/4cup of wet substance that looks like wet snow. I bought this for party favors. I regret not buying Insta-snow and scooping it out for favors instead.

The boots seem rugged enough, appear water proof/resistant, well made, and will likely hold up reasonably well.  Unfortunately, they fail in the one area they really need to perform if they're going to be called a "Snow Boot" .. even with a liner sock and a wool sock, my feet got icey in temperatures that were only just a few degrees below freezing.  A "Snow Boot" should, at the very least, be able to keep ones feet from getting uncomfortably cold for a little while.  I could tell my feet were not going to stay warm within just 10 to 15 minutes of being out in the cold.  I think the biggest problem is that the soles are not insulated enough .. the sides and top of my feet actually felt OK.  The cold, however, almost immediately sucked the heat from the bottom of my feet.  One would think that boot designers would be familiar enough with real-world conditions to know that the soles need even more insulation than the rest of the boot, not less!  If a boot performs no better in the cold than a pair of mid-weight hikers, it has no right claiming a "snow boot" status.

Poorly made product, only three of the snowflakes are actually useable.
