Good balance between price and quality.

Ive installed multiple shocks in everything from sedans to complete long arm conevrsions in off-road jeeps. Reviews for shocks are difficult since almost every new shock will be better than the shock it will be replacing.  I would summarize these as a good middle of the road shock.  Decent price, and seems to provide a reasonable quality ride. It came with all hardware necessary to install and fitment was excellent.  Installation went very smoothly in my F150.  I would recommend if you are looking for a decent quality replacement shock.  I would not categorize these as an upgrade.

Good quality considering the price.  Would buy again.  Recommended.

Good value- good balance between control and comfort.  This is my second set on a non-modified 3/4 ton diesel used as a daily commuter and occasional moderate to light towing.  Previous set were good for over 75k miles.  Manufacturer suggests changing at about 50k miles. This is probably preferred since deterioration is gradual and there is no visable change to the shock.  When I removed the old ones, one front and one rear had slow recoil.

Decent build quality and good looks earn these glasses 4 stars. The quality is not out of this world, but good enough and just about right for this price range.

We could do without the multi-coloring, which is subjectively gaudy and unnecessary.  The cross contamination selling point seems more marketing fad than viable concern.  But for twenty bucks or less, this knife set seems a solid bargain.  The individual sheathing is a very nice touch, and being plastic it should hold up well.  The non-stick coating makes the blades easier to clean and slightly less prone to vegetables, like potatoes, sticking to the sides as you cut.  But it's not quite as effective as grooved blades in terms of the latter.

Some have criticized the blades for being dull and/or unbalanced.  Expectedly, they're not as razor sharp as a single $100 chefs knife might be, much less an $800 blade.  But any knife is going to dull with use and need re-sharpening.  The sharper the blade, usually the softer the steel, and accordingly the faster it'll dull.  I'd label these "expectedly" sharp, considering their mass produced nature.  As such, the steel in them is likely slightly harder so, while it can't be honed quite as fine, it's also less susceptible to rust and won't dull as quickly for the average consumer who may not be into near constant blade upkeep.  Don't expect hand-crafted folded steel from the Orient.  No exotic Smithing of yesteryear was incorporated into the production.  No doubt the very latest modern manufacturing has to offer was used, like every other mass produced item, to maximize cost efficiency over quality, relative to the demands and needs of the majority market doesn't use a kitchen knife professionally or is willing to sacrifice 20% performance for 80% cost savings.  These are easily as sharp as kitchen knives we've used costing 4-5x as much, just more affordably mass manufactured.

The balance thing, somebody will need to explain to me.  They're not throwing knives, so I don't quite comprehend that vein of criticism.  And I say that as someone who's studied knife throwing enough to know how to throw a knife be it balanced or unbalanced.  Not to imply I'm any good at it, just that I've studied the dynamics and mechanics of throwing enough to equate familiarity.  If anything, I'd presume a kitchen knife ideally would have more weight in the blade than the handle, which these do.  Please correct me, if I'm mistaken - always good to learn something.

The only real criticisms I have is that the wavy bread knife, while it can be sharpened, doesn't actually cut bread as well as other serrated designs that can't be sharpened (and never seem to need to be sharpened, for cutting bread anyway).  And it'd be nice if at least the two largest knives had dimples cut into the sides to better prevent what you're slicing from sticking to the blade.  Neither of which should increase the price of the set to implement.

5 star price + 3 star quality = 4 star overall

To be honest, my opinion may be skewed as these were replacements for some Klipsch earphones that I had lost. I didn't want to spend a lot so when I saw these Altec Lansings on sale and with decent reviews I got a pair.  Based on a few weeks of use, I'm glad I made this purchase. The sound quality is pretty good.  The sensitivity isn't the same as the replaced Klipschs (or even a previous set of Ultimate Ears, presumably on which this set is based) so I need to raise the volume to get the same sound output.  They aren't as "transparent" as some of the higher end, multi-armature earphones, but they stack up well against the mid-range competition. In my opinion, if you're looking for heavy bass, these aren't the earphones for you.  But for a pretty balanced sound, they do well.  Also, while some have complained about the cloth cord, I find it durable as well as flexible. True, it may telegraph noise more than, say, a thin rubber chord, but I generally wear them without much movement so that's not a big problem for me.

A few months ago a writer at Huffington Post disassembled a pair of $140 Beats, and what he found was a lot of heavy zinc castings and a pair of inexpensive 40mm drivers of the sort that sell in quantity for under a buck each. If you were to disassemble these Panasonics, you'd find a lot of lightweight plastic and a pair pair of almost identical slightly smaller (30mm) drivers. These 'phones may not have the heavy, overemphasized bass of the Beats, but they do have a very natural, extended, bass and a clear uncolored sound.

I've been listening to a variety of music on my iPad with them on as I type; they're very comfortable, thanks in large part to the light weight. There's enough adjustability to fit any head. I wear a size 7-7/8 hat, and I only had to extend the headband a little more than half way for a good fit. Obviously at under twenty bucks you don't expect them to be as good as 'phones costing several hundred dollars, but for listening to a portable music source like a tablet or smartphone these may be all the headphones you'll ever need. (And at Amazon's price, you can buy at least six sets for the price of one set of Beats.)

These worked for my move. They were a little thin and I did have to patch a couple of tears with tape. Overall I think they were a good balance between price and durability, especially for something I'm only going to use once and throw out.

they look good, close up you can tell they are not perfect as they have blemishes and a little unevenness, but for the price you can't do better.  the balancing was not to bad either.

Nice ear buds for the money.  Build quality is good and they fit my ears well.  I added foam covers which make these more comfortable and provide a more secure fit.  To me, the sound quality is the first consideration while price is also a consideration.

Pros:
Crisp clean sound.  Reasonable upper bass response, clean midrange for good vocals, extended highs.  Good dynamic range, high efficiency.  Can improve sound of MP3 recordings that lack 'sparkle.'

Cons:
Somewhat overly bright which may lead to fatigue especially at higher listening levels, slight coloration in the mid-treble range, not much lower bass response.

For the money and comparing these to other--even more expensive--earbuds, while not perfect, these represent a good overall value.

I bought two of these, one to keep in good health and the other to abuse to see how much abuse it could take. I usually don't buy cheap knives as most of them are, as one might expect, cheaply made. This is not one of those knives.

It is surprisingly well balanced, and fits my hand very well (though I have somewhat large hands, smaller users might disagree). The coating on the blade is, I suppose, nice. I plan to remove the coating in order to use the blade as a reflector if needed. The blade appears to be full tang (extending completely through the handle) with a small pin hammered through the pommel (butt end) to keep it fixed. After throwing it into trees and onto concrete it withstood surprisingly well, and the blade has remained as fixed as it was out of the box. The only real damage seems to be 0.2 - 0.5 millimeter gouges in the bevel of the blade after repeatedly dropping it/tossing it onto concrete stairs. With a tanto-style cast it will be extremely difficult to bend the tip of the blade, and even harder to break it, which is always a notable plus when I'm purchasing a blade. The grip itself seems to be a type of rubber, and may get a little slick when wet.

The sheath, on the other hand, is very poorly made. The blade barely fits into the nylon sheath, which is seemingly made for a thinner, longer knife. When inserted fully, there is a one inch gap between the blade tip and the sheath, which will in time make the sheath tip curl up. The snaps on the securing straps were hanging off of the straps themselves, making it difficult to open if wet or when loss of motor functions is present. The belt loop has a rigid cover on the inside to prevent wearing of the fabric, but in my tests it really only served to get caught on branches and small limbs when moving through tight spaces.

I would recommend this blade though, if possible, I would craft a new sheath myself or have one custom made by a leather worker.

For the price, this is a quality set of cutlery. The assortment of knives will cover any situation. They are sharp and well balanced. Whether used for cutting meat, dicing onions and veggies, or slicing bread the results are extremely good and and virtually effortless.
It is best to wash these knives in warm, soapy water to keep them new looking and sharp. Dishwasher usage will dull knives.
My only complaint is that the knife block isn't designed to accommodate specific knives in specific places. The indentations/cutouts are not calibrated by size. Seems odd to me that a fairly expensive set of knives should have any equally nice block.
For the price, this is still quite a bargain.

Nice item.  Quality appears to be higher than representative of cost.

Overall, I'd say this is a decent value, mostly based on price.  For the price, you can't really argue about quality here.  At ~$2/pair, these socks are a steal.  That being said, they are relatively thin and if your feet are at the top end of the size 10-13 range (like mine), you will notice the socks are a bit transparent in the "high stress" areas of the heal and toe.  They are certainly fashionable and look as pictured, with a variety of color mix patterns (all attractive).

Great value for a good quality product.  That doesn't happen often.

Nothing fancy about these, but they have good balance, and a good price.
