Good, but quality is not as they were before

I bought these exact socks about a year ago, and they became my favorite socks in my drawer. I decided to retire the rest of my other socks and replace them with more of these socks, but unfortunately the new batch of Under Armour socks were not exactly the same as the ones I've been using. The material seemed thinner - when I put an older sock on one foot and a new sock on the other, I could slightly see my toes through the new socks, yet the ones a year old were thick enough to prevent this. Also, the older socks fit perfectly - the newer socks feel tighter and leave compression marks on my skin, even though I bought the same size as last time.

I bought some of these to replace some that I bought about a year ago that were wearing thin.  These are not nearly as smooth as the original ones.

But the quality has changed. I have been wearing these slippers for last 15-20 years so I can tell the difference. They do not last as long as before. The picture is misleading - the inside sole does not have the stitching and it's less comfortable.

I just put the new ones in a short time ago. They felt a little lower quality compared to the ones that were in there when I bought it but as long as they work, they will be fine.

They're not as heavy-weight as my old set - the quality isn't as good as it used to be.  Bring our products back to America and get out of China!

I purchased this set  a year and a half ago on a big sale. They cook pretty well and evenly, but if you think you are buying the quality of 30 years ago you are in for a disappointment. I was excited to buy them because my mother has hers for 30 years and they are still shiny and clean and sturdy. We have a large family with home cooked meals every night so they are heavily used. I've had mine for a year and a half and they look old and spotty. The handle of the 3 quart saucepan comes loose after every use. I'm quite disappointed of the decline in quality.

Very nice, but not as nice as they used to be. Fit was a bit smaller than before as well.

I bought these years ago, and they worked like a charm.  Eventually, however, they just stop working -- apparently because they short out.
So I got a four pack of them this last time.  And they are simply not made as well as they used to be.  They now break after one or two kills....
Which is really a drag, because this used to be a great product.  But no more.

I have been wearing these socks for years now, but my last few orders have been disappointing. The socks fit just as well and stay in place as they always did, but I have noticed that they are of poorer quality these days. I start seeing holes in the socks where my toes are after a day or two of walking in them. I will be searching for more durable alternatives.

Good phone but not as well made as they used to be.  Build quality is not as good as they had in the past.

These jeans are not your father's Levi's.  The fit is still good, in my opinion, but the quality has taken a cliff dive.  I have purchased 6 pairs of these in the last 2 years.  All 6 pairs have had one or two belt loops break.  I've shown this in the pictures but it's hard to see.  It's hard to wear a tucked in shirt when you have 2 torn belt loops in the back, not to mention the way your belt rides up because there were only 5 belt loops to start with.  The material is definitely not as heavy duty as it used to be.  I felt I had to give a star each for fit and comfort, but the quality of these relative to what it used to be is atrocious.

I purchased my first 25 in 2012. The bands were very sturdy and i am still using them. I bought another 25 in 2014 and there is marked difference in quality, specifically the white ones. They seem much more flimsy (too easy to stretch and they seem thinner in width).

Well I purchased a third package in 2015 assuming they would be at least the 2014 quality but was sorely disappointed. All colors of the bands are now very flimsy compared to the original bands.

I am disappointed because these bands have been great for so many things besides for cooking.

I ordered these a couple of years back, originally, then ordered just a year ago. The quality has gone down. The briefs are all wearing out in the same place --- along the waistband. the briefs have all started to separate at the waistband at the back, developing small holes/tears. I expect that after several years, but the pairs I ordered just a year ago are also tearing.
  I like the material and fit, but am disappointed in the quality. It seems the briefs do not have the heavy cotton the earlier models had, and are thinner. Not sure if I would order again.

The last time I bought a pair of these headphones was back in 2012. That pair has lasted me the last 4 years, until the 3.5mm too finally gave out and broke.

One thing I can say is that these 2016-model Flats are noticeably lower quality than my 2012 model ones. The band is made from a cheaper plastic, and the speakers seem to have a slightly higher mid-range than my last pair - which is a welcome change.

Overall, after these headphones have properly been broken-in, they should be perfect, but there are some definite signs of JVC cutting costs. Still incredible headphones for the price, and highly recommended.

I've been using mx400s for about 7 years and have gone through 2 pairs.  This is my third.

I'd still be on the first pair if I hadn't left them at an office I was visiting.  The headphones have excellent quality in terms of sound.

In terms of build quality, I would guess that they are now made with a thinner gage wire than in the past.  I can't prove this, but they are definitely not the same construction of the pair I bought even two years ago.  The new set comes with a straight connector while my two previous sets came with a right angle connector.  I prefer the right angle connector to prevent kinking of the wire in my pocket.  The plastic also seems thinner; they are much closer to the thickness of white iPod buds... But here's hoping they aren't as flimsy as those.  I'd also note that the set I purchased did not come with the carrying case even though it is listed otherwise.

I'd still buy these in the future as the sound, construction and price still add up.  But they aren't the same buds that drew me to repurchasing the brand and model originally.  And that's really too bad since the originals were built like tanks, sounded great and would last a lifetime if cared for in the carrying case.

I have white ones like these that I absolutely love, it seems these are now made differently-the bottoms aren't as thick as they used to be. I love the look though.

Not as good as they used to be not long ago - maybe because they were out of date upon arrival?
