Disappointing results - not the magic bullet I'd hoped for

My husband did some laundry wearing a pair of brown suede clogs, and got bleach spots all over his shoes, which turned the brown suede into what looked like splashes of vomit (not kidding). I ordered the dark brown spray hoping it would be opaque enough to just wipe out the previous shade of brown and overlay a new one, but the spray is more transparent than opaque and the once vomit-colored spots now look like splashes of diarrhea. Sorry to be so graphic but I was disappointed with the results and the suede clogs still look bad, just a different shade of bad.

ADVICE: buy this if you have a uniform color of suede you want to darken, but don't expect miracles. It's okay, but I won't be buying this again.

Not convinced this stuff does anything special.
I started running alternative solutions through my SpotBot that cost a fraction of the price with similar results.
The SpotBot itself doesn't work nearly as well as I hoped, so this rating is partially based on my feelings towards to system as a whole.  How can the 2X Pet Stain solution be a great product when the machine I run it through isn't exceptional.  I feel like they attempted to set up a subscription based system by convincing you to not use other solutions in the SpotBot.

I would recommend trying other small amounts of other cleaners (carpet safe) and comparing the results.  Most likely, both will leave your carpet remaining slightly yellow and you slightly disappointed.

Bissell would need to send me free product and some help on how to actually make it removes spots to get me back on the Bissell hype.  Until then, I'll put my tail between my legs and run my machine 20x on the same spot to try and wash it clean.

After trying several antennas including 2 mohu leaf models and a few others, and getting ok but not great results, decided to give this a shot based on positive reviews and its supposed 125 mile range. Ended up reselling this locally at a loss because of its disappointing performance.

Followed all the instructions and I am pretty disappointed as it was no different (if not worse) than the indoor antennas I've tried. As far as build quality, it feels fairly cheap. However, I think the antenna would work great for some people. I think it is heavily based on your location and installation location (hilly, big buildings, trees, attic vs roof, etc.) and not so much on the antenna. In my opinion, if a cheaper antenna isn't doing it for you, this one probably won't do a whole lot better.

I was really disappointed in the product, especially after reading all the positive reviews. We are a multi-cat household and I was hopeful this would be a more cost-effective alternative to some of the other more costly clumping litters. I was not satisfied with how little it controlled the urine odors and it seems like there are other litters that clump more tightly than this one.  Overall, it's better than some litters but not as good as the Arm and Hammer I'd switched from.  Overall, disappointed and won't be purchasing again.

This didn't seem nearly as "pearly" as I remember it being in the past; it seemed like it was a lot more of the filler powder. I have always used Ultra Super Pearl and charged extra for my use of it; it's expensive if you're trying to do a large quantity of pearl border for a wedding cake.  So I was especially frustrated that my pearls didn't look nearly as good this time and felt like my product wasn't as good.  Maybe I got a bad batch, or maybe the formula has changed, but I have always used this brand and this time, it was not up to my standards and I was not proud of the effect.  I guess I will have to research other luster dust brands now :( hate when I come to depend on something and it doesn't work as well as it once did.

I have experimented with countless powders in all price ranges, and I'd say this is mediocre. About 2 hours after applying, my face is shiny and oily again, whether I use this over moisturizer, sunscreen, concealer, foundation, or any combination thereof. This defeats the purpose of a setting powder for me.

This looks white in the compact but is translucent on the skin once blended with a powder brush. The included puff can cause it to clump up on the face, but the brush picks up enough powder to distribute it evenly and blend. It's not chalky, and you can pick some up out of the compact just by brushing your finger across the powder, which are two qualities that put this ahead of some setting powders. For the price, though, there are similar options at the drugstore.

I have oily, reactive adult skin that is very prone to irritation and breakouts. I believe this worsened some existing small pimples and may have clogged pores on my nose and cheeks, but it didn't cause a horrible reaction or result in unmanageable acne breakouts as some powders have. The ingredients are minimal, which is a good thing for acne prone skin. In the end, the fact that did nothing to help combat shine, along with the fact that I believe it may have worsened clogged pores, caused me to return it.

I wanted to like this product. Adobe is a brand that I trust, and I enjoy their software. However, unfortunately, the stylus doesn't live up to the quality and usefulness I've come to expect from Adobe products. Most people when buying this probably have high hopes that it will approach the performance of the industry standard leader, Wacom. Wacom makes great pen-based inputs, but the last time I checked Wacom hadn't had great success with iPad inputs. I was hoping that Adobe would have conquered that challenge. It hasn't.

In brief, this stylus is lacking the range of sensitivity that one can achieve with recent generations of Wacom pens in their Cintiq line or their other drawing tablets. I found this pen less effective with softer strokes, especially when coming out of a mark. The learning curve to master this tool seems quite high, as it requires an extremely precise touch. Lag issues add to the difficulty of application.

Adobe has produced a lot of software that has served me well, and I won't give up on them - but after my experiences with this stylus, I'd be cautious of being an "early adopter" for similar units in the future.

I was disappointed in this attachment for several reasons, some of which are my own fault for not thinking through.  I bought it because I wanted to mill my own flour, and the Kenwood grain mill attachment doesn't seem to be available in the US.  I figured that I would simply mill in batches until I got enough flour for a bread recipe.  After all, "grinding" and "milling" are part of the company's description of the product.  Because of the limitations inherent in the chopper/mill, however, it's not practical for that use and others.

The max capacity is about 3/4 cups, but I found that for best milling or even pur&eacute;eing other types of food is really 1/2 cup.  The motor on the Kenwood is extremely powerful -- you use it at maximum speed -- which means two things:  the contents heat up via friction blending, and the attachment cannot be run for longer than 2 minutes total without overheating.  For grinding wheat berries, I found that it took about 45 seconds per batch (more on that later) and that the contents were quite warm.  I could do two batches, for a total of a 1 to 1.5 cups, and then had to let everything cool for about 20 minutes before starting up again.  Softer foods would obviously take a lot less time.  Coffee beans and hard spices would probably be about the same as wheat berries.

Moisture content and type of ingredients play a role in how well this processes.  Like any blender, it can get stuff at the top that might not fall down toward the blade for even pur&eacute;eing or milling.  With wheat berries, it gave a coarse flour with finer grind at the bottom, near the blades, and coarser impacted at the top.  I imagine it would be the same with coffee beans, although they don't need to be as fine as flour.  But because the Kenwood motor channels all of its energy into a tiny cup, you should get good results with moist ingredients as long as you don't overfill.  (If you are making baby food, please be careful with the heat if you run it longer than 20 seconds.)

The glass jars are thick and heavy-duty, and the lids fit well.  I do love that Kenwood includes a total of four jars.  Connecting the attachment to the top of my Cooking Chef takes a little fit of finesse.  You use the four-prong gear at the back of the machine (the one farthest from the bowl), and you have to rotate and push down until you find the fit.  Once it gives when pushing down, you keep pushing downward and twist it into place.

When this mini chopper is used in certain situations, it works well, primarily because of the build quality and the sheer power of Kenwood mixers.  Its small capacity, the heat it generates, and the limited run time of two minutes makes it impractical for serial milling.

After seeing the infomercials for this line umpteen times, they finally convinced me to try it. Thankfully, I limited my experimentation to one product because I am definitely not impressed. I used about half of the bottle before giving up on it. It did absolutely nothing. In fact, about a week after going back to a similarly priced, lifting and firming product that I've previously used, my husband noticed. My husband of many years noticed an improvement when I stopped using this product! I should have tossed it sooner!

Bottom Line: It's an overpriced and ineffective product. The infomercial worked. The product didn't.

Really disappointed in this product. I wanted to find something that was portable and non-dairy. (Starbucks charges an additional .60 or more for soymilk!) Unfortunately, this product wasn't it. I couldn't even detect any difference at all, so I kept adding more and more to try to taste some creaminess. Alas, when I did, it just didn't taste very good at all. I splurged on giving this a try as it's on the pricey side too. The struggle is real; the search goes on. : (

After being disappointed by the photos I took with this, I wound up making my own out of a crate, 2 pieces of white tagboard and some duct tape. That took me 10 minutes after I found a tutorial on Pinterest. Those photos turned out way better!

Honestly, I think my expectations were just too high for this purchase, but the best I can say of this is "meh."

It's really small. If you're photographing earrings, you should be fine, but anything else (a shirt, a bottle of shampoo, etc.) will fill too much of the space to allow for "white space" in your photo. It wound up being pretty much unusable for me.

Also, the wrinkles in the fabric were a problem, and I wasn't interested in damaging my iron by trying to use it on this nylon material.

I ordered the "Meguiar's G17216 Ultimate Compound - 15.2 oz" recently from Amazon. I guess I had high expectation after reading lot of reviews and watching videos of pros but the product was blah. I followed the exact instructions of how to clean/apply/rub etc. but didn't get any improvement on the appearance on my black car. I then tried on my blue van and still not much improvement of various aspects of color embellishments.
I am guessing the Meguiar's Automobile related products qualities have degraded over time. It doesn't merit the price premium over other similar products on the market and I feel Meguiar's products are somewhat "over-rated".
So, I am going to go against the herd (haven't been brain-washed yet) and give it a  "thumbs down".

Even after adjusting, I still had problem with consistency, and was not impressed with the performance of this product. I REALLY wanted to like this product. I think it has some basic design flaws though. I understand the concept and the cause of their problems. The first problem is they have to TRY to accommodate a LOT of different guns, ammo, and firing distances that create greatly differing amounts of force when the bullet strikes the plate. Too much force, and it not only rebounds and swings back to it's original side, but also can beat the target to death. Too little force and the plate does not move enough to swing all the way around. They also have to have some way to force the target to stay on one side or the other once it moves past the center so it will always be visible and not just hang up around back. I think they did a good job of trying to resolve all these problems. The spring tension is adjustable to some degree. I think their biggest problem comes from a lack of lubrication, and the fact that any target other than #1 and #5 from the top, have to move the targets above them up slightly when they swing from side to side. They only have one weight-dividing support that is located between targets #4 and #5. That support means if you shoot the target at the bottom of the stack (#4 or #8) it has to move the 3 above it up slightly as it pivot around. I believe if they added 2 more supports between #2/3 and #5/6 so each target only has to move one additional target, it would work better. However, for the price point, I doubt we will see this happen. Personally, I think I will just use the cutouts to make a plate rack, and simply have them fall over. I MAY take it apart and tinker with lubrication, or even cut and weld in some additional supports myself. If I do, I will update my review and let you know how it went. However, since most people have no way of doing those things, I have to rate it according to how my out-of-the-box experience has gone, which is not good. If you buy this, make sure you read the directions, and buys some good red and black exterior metal paint to touch up the plates after each use. The stickers are worthless after the first hit, so don't waste your time with them. Just clean the plates and hit them with a light coat after each use to keep it from rusting between uses. You WILL get a lot of lead-splatter all over this target. You don't have to paint over that, just the spots where the paint has been removed. In my experience, they have a THICK paint on them, and one good strike removes a large chip.

I definitely was disappointed by the iRobot Baava 380t.  I wouldn't of minded the hefty price tag if it worked as expected.  However, it really didn't work well at all and I returned it.  It's a fantastic concept, but I think there's a ton of improvement that needs to be done to this product, both technology and quality-wise.

It dented 2 pieces of my furniture, as it would constantly bump into the legs of my couches.  It should have better padding/bumpers on it, to help avoid such damage.

Also - it would go over the same areas way too many times.  Plus, I found this unit was really not great with my home's large and open layout.  In my home, there aren't a lot of walls for the unit to bounce off of to learn boundaries, so I would have to set it at least 4 or 5 times to get it to almost clean my first floor.  Aside from having to recharge it more than I'd like, it also took an extremely long time for the floor to be at a point that I considered clean.  Granted, I didn't have to do the labor of cleaning the floors, but it would miss a lot of spots and once I realized that it was causing damage, that was the last straw.

Disappointing product full of promise but lacking results. I really wanted to like this trap, but it simply didn't work for me. Tried several combinations of bait per the other reviews (dog food, peanut butter, chicken feed, etc.) and was unable to lure the intelligent and bold rats in my backyard into this trap. I watched the rats from my kitchen window in the mornings and evenings as they literally ran circles around the big blue box. I did manage to electrocute a large slug, and the LED stopped working after a week--leaving me doubtful as to whether the trap was armed or even functional. Not recommended.

Maybe I just don't know how to match the correct amount of ground coffee beans or grind them the right size or press them in firmly enough, but it just was not producing the results that I wanted. The idea of saving money was great, but I just couldn't get the damn thing to work for me. I had small coffee grounds in my espresso, the taste was horrible and definitely not anywhere close to the original packets. But again, there are just way too many variables to make this work right. If you are a coffee bean pro and know your beans and are careful to measure and experiment with various techniques, go for it. If you just wanted to save money, but don't really have the skill set to make this work, save your money on this product and spend it on more Nespresso capsules!

My hair is rather thick, wavy (frizzy) and cut into a chin length bob.  I had it red, but have been highlighting and stripping it back to blond..  This product didn't work for me the way I'd hoped, BUT, I can see how my negatives might be a good thing for other hair types.

First of all, it made my hair feel crackly and not soft.  My hair is already thick and unruly so this was not a plus.  For people with fine hair, this may be great.

Secondly, I had trouble getting my hair to curl.  I just didn't like the way it behaved with the InStyler that I use.  It felt like it would be easier to straighten my hair with this product instead of curling it.

Lastly, I didn't notice any difference in brassiness control.  Maybe my hair is still too dark to notice much, and maybe it is cumulative.

What I did like -

The container. Dispensing is easily controlled and does not continue to bubble out like some mousses I've used.
The scent.  Not overwhelming, just nice and clean.
The texture of the mousse.  It was easy to distribute through my hair.

Conclusion -  I cannot recommend for my hair type, but I think this would work for  finer textured, straight hair.
