Great First Impression

Though I haven't used this product as of yet, I can already tell that this cot (and Teton's sleeping pad) will completely change my camping experience.  Even without the pad it is comfortable, and with it, it almost feels just like a bed.  Like the other reviews state, this thing is only for car camping, not backpacking (which I also do a lot of).  I'm one of those people who love to camp, but sleep like crap.  Up until this point I have been using the APLS Mountaineering air pad and they have done well for backpacking.  I've tried air mattresses but they are not really meant for the outdoors.  Just think of all of the crap you track into the tent on a single camping trip, rocks, twigs, dirt, sand, etc.  Eventually these things will make small holes in the air mattress and you will end up on the ground before 2 AM.  You don't have to worry about that with a cot.

Though the cot is comfortable, it could be a bit tighter.  I have an actual Army cot that, when put together, is as tight as a drum.  The Teton cot has a bit of noticeable sag, but it's not like your sleeping in a hammock or anything.  I bought two of these with the matching sleeping pads and one of the cots was delivered with a small manufactures defect in the canvas.  However, three days later I had a replacement.

I'll try and remember to update this review after I use it this Spring.

I plugged it into USB port on my fedora Linux desktop and it recognized it right away.  And I used cheese application to test out the camera.  My first impressions are very good.  Very clear video even with low night light in the room.  Video during motion is also very clear.  As others mentioned there is fish eye effect.  I will play with it more and update the review at a later time.

I can think of tons of applications for this camera if one is tech savvy enough to play with it to integrate with Linux powered devices like Raspberry-Pi etc.

This is a day 1 review so I can't share any information beyond my first impression but, wow, what a great first impression it is!  We have a young puppy who struggled initially with house training so 3 weeks ago I rented a professional carpet cleaner from the pet store and did all of my carpets.  The puppy then went in to be "fixed", reacted badly to the pain killers and left little surprises around the house so I used a home carpet cleaner that I borrowed to shampoo everything again.  Decided to make this purchase when just feeling like neither had really gotten the carpets as clean as I would have liked.  This arrived today and I did one room.  While not as dramatic as the ads show, there was a notable difference in the color of the carpet as I cleaned it and the water I dumped was filthy.  That's after cleaning them twice in the past 3 weeks!  I'm not crazy about the one way cleaning but do understand why it's necessary and will just get used to that.  Didn't notice anything else that was a con to this.  If I find anything of concern later, I'll update this post.

Just arrived, delayed one day due to weather, but impressed with our first trial run.  We have two dogs and live in a rural area, so our carpet takes a real beating.  First pass in just our hallway yielded some impressive results, more than we'd ever gotten with our combination canister vac. This is our first venture in to the "bagless" style, the futuristic look of all of them reminds me of the TV show, "The Jetsons", from years ago.  I'm not necessarily into all the snazzy high-tech look of these, some are pretty weird looking and I doubt that has a lot to do with performance, but there's no choice from any of the manufacturers, if a person wants this style of machine.  Reasonably priced, seems a good buy for the money------so far.  Consumer Reports gave it a high rating and that was what drove us to this brand and model.

It's a little heavier than we expected, takes more effort to move it around but since we're "mature" the extra exercise will do us good.

I know, you shouldn't buy a football for the looks, but I cannot deny it, this ball sure looks nice! Very good first impression.
And of course, it feels very comfortable in your hand. I haven't played it long enough to judge the endurance.

The ball arrives a bit under-inflated, but that's just my personal opinion, not a big issue. Some people might like it that way.

Looking forward to some quality father-son time.

I haven't taken many pictures yet, but first impression is GOOD. I took SHARP pictures that look TERRIFIC even when you zoom in, even better than my last camera.
You should know it does NOT weigh 4 pounds as Amazon states; it is actually about a pound and a half. It's bigger and heavier than typical point-and-shoots (due largely to the big lens) and the case you have for your existing point-and-shoot will not fit, but the camera is light enough around the neck to satisfy most people.
Surprisingly, the manual is pretty good! It gives you some idea what different modes and features are really useful for, and, when it references another topic covered elsewhere in the manual, it gives the page number so you can look it up.
I also appreciate the ability to make fine adjustments quickly before you lose your shot; animals don't pose for long and without this feature, you would lose a lot of shots toggling through to different modes, or worse, switching to all-manual mode. It's like having limited manual flexibility in the different fixed scene modes -- the best of both worlds, so to speak, for anyone except a really experienced photographer who needs no help.
My complaints so far are relatively minor:
(1) The zoom is manual, a dial on the lens, rather than the motorized type you are probably used to. It's not as convenient to reach. If I could change one thing, that would be it.
(2) The menu buttons are small. Why? There is plenty of empty space around them.
(3) When you take a picture, it doesn't stay on the LCD screen long enough to get a good look at it.
(4) The swivel rotatable screen works nicely, but is a bit small.
(5) No lithium battery option, only the rechargeable pack (although it seems to last long enough with extensive LCD use). It seems to me regular lithiums lasted longer in my old camera than this battery pack does, but I DO LIKE the charger that is included with the camera. It is VERY small and plugs straight into an outlet. It will fit in any camera case so you can take it along with your spare battery and SD card and always have it on hand.
I will update later when I have more experience with this apparently superb product.

First impressions are good. Everything arrived as promised. Never had microfiber sheets before so the jury is still out. So far so good.

Really great first try. I don't consider myself a critic so take this for what its worth. Its wide open from the start and finishes strong as well. I hear some of the complaints some of the other reviewers are going on about (editing) but, they don't destroy the flow of the story.

First impression  Very Good.  The tips are ground flush, there is a slight burr.  The edges meet square for their entire length.

First impressions were reasonable for the product. The first pumps are sort of hard, but after about 50 pumps it eases up a bit. The scope is also off so it needs to be sighted in. I did it in about 20 shots to where I was getting quarter groupings. Overall it is a great product.

First Impressions:
1. setup of this is fairly easy.  For the most part if you follow the directions you will be ok.
2. some neat little models are already include in memory
3. Software is on included SD card
4. Printer is quiet and surprisingly light weight.

A couple of cons :
The instructions will refer to something called build tape, both the instructions and the online videos will lead you to believe this is some sort of blue colored film.  It is not.  In fact you will need to take the 2 dremel signs that look a bit like mouse pads, this is you tape.  I spent 30 minutes looking for the blue stuff before i figured this out.

Also build times are pretty long.  This is not so much a con as a fact of life for 3d printing but be willing to allow some projects 3-4 hours to build if they are large.

Lastly, technically according to the instructions you are supposed to re-level the build platform every time you remove it, which is basically after every job is complete.  The included leveling card helps but it is kind of tedious.

Overall I have had this thing up and running for about 3-4 hours now, and I really do enjoy it.  I have already printed 2 objects.  There are size limitations but if you import a project that is too big, the include software will let you scale it down to fit.

Day 2-
Some other things of note.  Some of your projects will need to be peeled off the platform with a fair amount of force. Don't be afraid to put some muscle into it, this plastic is pretty tough stuff.  I printed out the tree frog and was afraid the small toes would break off, but they did not.  There is a scraper included to help you remove your project, but so far for the two things I have printed, it has not been very useful.

Regarding the two printed project, it's really impressive the amount of detail that gets printed.  Especially on the tree frog model.

Day 3 and 4
The software that comes on the included SD card is out of date and does not seem to be able to auto update, so you will want to download the latest from the website.
Also as all of this is very new there seems to also be a lack of documentation for the idea builder software so it is not immediately obvious what all the features of the software due.  I expect this to updated soon though.

I printed pretty much non-stop all weekend long.  Models that took 1 hour to models that took 6 or 7 hours.  Only a few times did I have any issues.  I would suggest dremel include some primer documentation that includes when to use the "build with support" option, and how to remove the model afterwards.  I figured it out trial and error.  I had one instance of the model come loose from the build tape and move but a reprint of the same model, did not repeat the slippage and it printed fine 2nd time around.

The more stuff I print (I recommend thingiverse.com)the more I really love this printer.

First impressions are impressive.  Have not used them much in the field so take this review for what its worth.  I have used cheaper monocular range finders and honestly I cant see using them again.  Why carry both?  The setup is a breeze.  Not sure about the ballistic drop readouts yet because I cant believe there will be a setting that will match my loads as accurately as I would like them.  You can match your ballistics from your handloads if you work backwards into them using the provided data in the manual.  You simply shoot at different range targets with not elevation corrections and measure your drop, compare the drop and use the corresponding setting.  I will be writing another review once I play with that.  The quality of the binos feel and appear to be 1st rate.  The readout looks nice and there are adjustments for both your left and right eye so you can fine tune your sight picture.  There are nice features that allow the range finder to ignore brush and other obstacles between you and your target.  the read out will display the furthest background while using this mode.  The opposite is also available if you are ranging a small target and keep picking up the more dominate background.  Overall I cant wait to put some miles on this unit and give a better field tested review.  If looking for something at this price point I would not hesitate to make this purchase.

I haven't had a chance to use this jump-starter yet, but my initial impression of the unit is favorable. It looks nice, appears to be constructed well and ships with decent documentation (and a nice warranty.) I do like the fact the company send an email a few times a year reminding the customer to charge it. Will be sure to update this review if/when it's ever put to use.

Nice first impression. I expected the turtle to be bigger but it's nice and small for my liking. Size 7 is true fit. Will update with any changes.

Overall seems really nice so far. Opened today and was able to assemble in about 15 minutes. Gave 4 stars only because heating doesn't seem to work well and the knob system for ease of reclining is annoying. Though it is very well priced for look and feel. Hopefully it holds up overtime. Controls and vibrate work very well. Was shipped and packaged well and delivery was on time. Overall great experience so far.
