This a great design and if you press hard enough, you have a cool sandwich.  The problem is that you really have to press hard to get the design to show properly.  I had to push down with two hands and a lot of force to get through.  It was ridiculous.  Aside from it being cheap, I would not buy again.  I use a wonderbread sealer n decruster that works much better with minimal effort; it even seals it!

I really tried to like the product, inexpensive but not ideal.  A little bit of static in headphones from device.  The worst part was the little tiny opening that you have to use a needle-nose pliers to remove a tiny little connector to switch from mono to stereo.  Just that alone was worth a 1 star but I thought I'd be nice and give it 2.  Rolls, change that one thing and I could handle the little static because I'm sure that is fixable.

I really wanted to like this product. It has great luminance, gooseneck works fine, design looks quite nice. But the switch is a flush plastic button in a plastic shaft, button held up by a large spring, and you have to push it deeply to cause the lamp to switch on and off. A casual test of the switch caused it to lock up in the down position, and it took fifteen minutes of fiddling with it to get the button to raise back up. I also noticed that the plastic shaft the button fits into has very sharp edges that end up hurting your finger, if you aren't a well calloused bruiser. The power plug is a large rectangular plastic box that works OK in a wall socket, leaving room for another plug in the other socket, but it takes up too much horizontal space in a power strip. Otherwise, the plug is ok.

In summary, the quality of the switch told me that it would need replacement almost immediately, and I would rather spend my hard earned dollars on something that has some reliability. I shipped it back. Until they improve the switch, thumbs down on this product.

I had really wanted to like this product, but it is just too small for me. I work as a part time dog walk and I walk an average of five miles a day. This bag just doesn't work for me. The drawstring makes it difficult to retrieve treats, the bag itself doesn't hold a huge amount of treats and you can barely fit your keys and phone in here. I was also worried that the mesh side wouldn't keep my phone contained, and lo and behold it didn't. One of my dogs pulled really hard and it sent my phone flying to the sidewalk. Fortunately, my phone was in a protective case, so there wasn't any damage. I like the inner lining to keep the bag clean, but that's the only perk. If you don't mind the small size, this might work, but I'll be going back to my purse, which cost the same amount as this bag.

I really wanted to like this headset, it had many good things going for it but unfortunately some of the issues stopping me from loving it. I use them mainly for gym purposes, mostly for lifting weights, not cardio where i'm jumping up and down and occasionally in the car. I also have rev jams bluetooth headset as comparison. I have had several bluetooth headsets.

The good:
-They look nice
-The size is smaller
-Love the button orientation and the fact that they are not multipurpose buttons but rather each specific button for a specific purpose.
-Nice color choices
-They seem solid

The bad:
-they don't stay on my head, they tend to start sliding back or forward of my head. I think they just need to be more tighter that hug your head. This was a killer for me because even doing tasks as walking was not possible with these since they slide off. Now i had my friend try it and he didn't have the same issue so depends on the head, more thinner hair probably more chances of sliding off.
-sound quality is ok, it has decent base and clarity but overall my rev jams headset are more clearer and hug better.
-Connection problems, they keep dropping connection, tried to reset as well. Maybe just mine that does that.

I think with some tweaking these can be really good, i have had other bluetooth headset from them that was good and replaced them with this. The company is good, they seem to care about the products and how customers view their product. I have had good experience so far with them, i know everyone has different experiences with them and saw in some of the reviews people got some bad sets that the company was willing to replace.

The one, that I received, had bugs in it! When I opened it first I noticed a bunch of very small holes and then the bugs.
I saw other reviews about finding bugs too, but I thought that it only affected to one batch.
I really wanted to like this product. I wish they could fix that and improve their quality control. But to be honest I don't think I will try the product again because of such a bad experience finding bugs in a brand new product.
I'm a fan of some of their other products: Whey Protein and the Creatine.

Sadly, I wanted to love this. Unfortunately, to hold an iPad 2 or later, you must insert shims in the unit designed for the older iPad. They do fit tightly once installed, but I was afraid at one point that I might break the tabs that secure the shims. YOu have to push really hard. They work okay, but I don't like paying $40 for a bad, awkward session of assembly. Then the most frustrating thing was that you cannot change the iPad's orientation from landscape to portrait and back conveniently. You must unscrew a rather long screw, with a philips head screwdriver, that seats in a plastic part that will definitely strip sooner or later. Unfortunately, the iRig guitar interface software must be in landscape to set up, and then my charts are in a program that really needs to be in portrait orientation. So I'm stuck.

On top of that, a clip was supposed to be enclosed for mounting the iRig to the iPad bracket, but neither in this package, nor in the (equally disappointing) iKlip mini, did I find the fabled iRig clip. I will contact customer support, but all I read suggests they could care less.

I've already bought another iPad holder that allows me to change the orientation as necessary without partially disassembling the unit. Don't know what I'll do with this one.

I really wanted to love this.  The concept, the execution, and the delivery were all nearly perfect.  But I had application problems (similar to the previous generation glas.t screen protectors) of having the corners starting to peel after application.  I'm a perfectionist, and I was really satisfied with the way the the screen protector arrived.  It looks and feels beautiful and the packaging was functional and fit the product well.

Once I emailed them regarding my problems they took quite a long time to respond.  And once they did respond, they treated me poorly.  They seemed to infer it was a user error although this was a problem that plagued previous generations of glas.t screen protectors.  I'm not asking for my money back; I really would love the product if it stuck on properly, but I'm just asking for a replacement and they're just making me go through frustrating lengths to even try to get that.

I will update this when I get my replacement (if I do), but until then, I would not recommend this product until they either (1) fix their manufacturing problems, or (2) admit that there may be a problem with some of their protectors and offer a free-of-charge replacement.  It shouldn't be so difficult for consumers to request a replacement.

Update:  I got my replacement, and the problem with the replacement is worse than the original.  Originally, only one of the corners wouldn't stick to my phone, but on the replacement, two corners and a 1/4 of an edge wouldn't stick to my phone.  To add insult to injury, they email me to tell me that replacements are not covered by their warranty, so if my replacement didn't solve my problem then tough luck.

TLDR: I would be cautious with buying this product.  Their products might be great for others, but it's easily visible how they are trying to cut corners in customer service to maximize profits.

I wanted to love this product and I thought it was the answer to all my problems.  But it was too large to coil my Bose headsets, so then i used it to coil my USB cord and it managed to ruin the cord.  So I am at a net loss by adding the cost of this winder to the cost of a new Apple USB cord to the cost of an other cord winder.  If I could return it and get my money back I would then I would at least make back some of my capital loss.  Are you guys listening Recoil Manufacturing Group?

I really wanted to love this product.  It appeals to me visually, size-wise and performance wise.  Unfortunately the iPod dock never worked at all.  I had called the Yamaha service center and was sent in a black hole of Customer Support emails, reference numbers, serial numbers and various codes all to send me to a NYC based local service center that was out of business.

A documented record of an unfunctional $250.00 product should be enough to get Customer Service moving I would think.

There are just too many options these days for high performance audio that understands bluetooth and wireless functionality properly.  Furthermore at the very least responsive customer service will help almost any customer through a problem.

This unit is now a nicely designed ebay ad soon unfortunately.

I really wanted to like this product and overall it does what it's supposed to; however, if you don't have a need to brush oil a lot, it's more work than it's worth.  After you brush your food with the silicone brush (which is so much nicer than the old bristle type), you dip it back into the oil reservoir.  You end up carrying particles of your food back into the reservoir and essentially contaminating the oil there.  The brush doesn't touch the bottom of the jar also and it's a challenge to get the brush into the oil if there's only a small amount of oil left in the jar.  I've found it useful when brushing a large amount of food, but don't use it much unless I'm working with bigger quanities of food.  It's more work than it's worth for small amounts, and if you don't use it regularly, the oil will go stale.  I'm keeping it, but it has limited functionality for me.

I really really wanted to like this product, Stainless Steel with a beautiful finish and fit perfectly...unfortunately I can not.  The pin holding the band together was slightly to big for the holes it was supposed to fit into. This caused it to hold together initially but then come apart with the slightest amout of pressure. (happened on day two) This cause my brand new gear s2 classic to fall and hit the ground leaving a scratch in the rotating bezel.  Not only did the watch get scratched, the spring loaded pin shot out to who knows where and the spare pins it came with are too long as it looks like they were made for attaching the band to the watch not the band back to its self.  I would suggest not putting your expensive tech at the mercy of this faulty band.

Before I begin, I have to say i truly wanted to like this product.  However, I have to honestly say that the idea behind the product is awesome, but fails on a few different levels.  So lets begin with the positives of this product.
  Positives
1.  The size is not obtrusive and does not block any vision.
  2.  I guess you can call the idea behind the product a positive.  You place a metal disk on back of your phone and then it attaches to a magnetized ball that is on your dash mount.
  Unfortunately this is wear the positives end for me.
  Negatives.
  1.  Its not rocket science as I was easily able to figure out how to put it together, but some may require instructions.  This only came in a small plastic container, no label, no directions, etc...
  2.  The magnet disk that is supposed to go inside of the case.  I have an otterbox case and it wouldnt work inside of the case.  I had to place this disk on the back of the case.  (again not a huge negative, but i can see how that is annoying to some users).
  3.  Mounting of the unit on the dashboard.  You are supposedly pealing back the film and letting the adhesive attach to your dashboard.  The adhesive has as much "stickiness" as the back of a piece of tape does.  It wouldn't stick and i tried in on multiple different sources.  (However, one can find another adhesive to put on the base of this mount and attach it.  You shouldn't have to do that though).

  Im giving it two stars cause I can see how this works and the name of the product is exactly what you get.  In order for this product to be awesome, the company needs a stronger magnet disk for the iPhone.  The company needs a stronger adhesive sticky pad for the car mount.  This company should include instructions for people who are not handy.

  Disclaimer:  I received this product at a discount for a fair and honest review on amazon.com

I really wanted to love this product, I had a few friends who recommended it and so I figured it was a must have. After delivering my son I attempted to wear the belly bandit but it was too small, the size chart didn't work well for me. That wasn't the problem, the problem was that the product would ride up all day, it was bulky and it was not easy to hide under clothing. I figure this product would be perfect if you don't plan on leaving home for 6 weeks or plan on wearing big t-shirts.

I really wanted to like this product. My Up3 band function seems okay and it does a good job of recording steps and heart rate (when it hasn't fallen off). Syncing with the app is embarrasingly bad. The app does not sync at all most of the time and when it does, the data is incorrect. It doesn't allow for water tracking at the touch of the + on the home screen.  Multiple sections of the app do not save without multiple screen presses (or at all). If the software team is releasing Minimum Viable Products, they need to reset their standards.

I really wanted to like this product. Great price point, stylish, smaller and more compact plus easy set up and use. BUT as I did see in other customer reviews when I researched the product, the cold tap does not produce nice, ice cold water.  I did notice there was a temperature adjustment feature, so I was not too concerned. Then in the Owners Manual is a bold warning page 7 "This feature is meant to be used by a certified technician only. If this feature is used and issues occur with the unit, the warranty will be voided."  I immediately called customer service # listed for the manufacturer. They win the award for most clueless customer service.....ever.  When I asked about how to locate a "certified technician" or what kind of technician to hire, the answer was "I don't know you just have to look for one." When I asked if there was any way I could speak to their tech dept. to find out how to adjust the temperature, the answer was "We don't have one." So, due to lack of customer service and tech support, and the fact that I will have to locate a "certified technician" who can maybe adjust the water temperature without voiding my
warranty and pay a fee of who knows how much for this adjustment, I have decided to return this product.  I am a bit shocked that with all the reviews mentioning this cold water issue [or lack of cold water!] that the NewAir Company has not educated their customer service representatives in how to handle this issue or recommend methods to adjust.

I really wanted to like this product. I bought 2 of them and they were both defective. Customer service was excellent though.
