Good idea (shriveling), but they need to oiled monthly to not hang up.

The idea is good, but they often hang up and won't swivel.  You need to keep light weight oil in them every month or so, so plan on that.

I'm a contractor who makes frequent use of hearing protection. My first set of these failed to maintain contact at the jack but by maneuvering the cord I found a spot where contact was good for another 6 months then it became useless for sound. I really enjoyed the idea of music/podcasts during work where your mind could drift a bit so I bought another hoping the defect had been fixed but after a few months use the same has happened as this jacks defective too. I tried several patch cords and added a few months use with one but now that fails as well. So, a good idea but poorly executed if performance over the long haul is any measure at all.

Like the MyPurMist itself, this is a good idea in search of a better design and/or a more reasonable price. The oil packets are hard to puncture and hard to know when you have punctured it and they don't last quite as long as you'd hope given the price. The pad itself is cumbersome to attach to the MyPurMist and comes unattached easily.

With that said, it does work reasonably well and the oil helps clear my sinuses significantly faster than just steam. Also, it's easy enough to reuse the pad by adding your own peppermint oil when the included oil runs out, which is not the manufacturer's intent but does help to justify the cost.

Great idea to keep it out of the way but still have easy access.  One problem - it puts the Hi Lift jack itself PERFECTLY in line with the windshield washer spray jets!  Really, guys?  Oh well, I don't leave the jack on my hood all the time anyway, and the mounts themselves are out of the way.

Burrowing creatures are a pain. A massively irritating, stubborn pain. To get rid of them, 1) you must remove their incentives, and 2) discourage them from coming back. Without addressing all facets in the ecosystem related to burrowers, you're not going to get rid of them.

Take these sonic spike things. I give them 3 stars. They technically do exactly what they promise. They buzz, and vibrate, repeatedly, endlessly, reliably, regardless of weather. They seem to be durable and easy on batteries. After 90 days, they're out there, just a-buzzin' away. Great.

But here's the problem with the product: they promise too much. They say, without any disclaimers that within 14 days, they will drive off burrowers. This is fantasy. This product is an irritant; when combined with other measures, it can discourage pests from entering your yard. It does nothing to address the issue of why burrowers might be attracted to your yard in the first place.

Burrowers come into your yard looking for food: burrowing insects and tasty roots. If you have a yard full of grubs and plants burrowers like, then doing what this product suggests (justs popping them in the ground, doing nothing else, and expecting a miracle), you have done nothing more than ring a dinner bell. The vibrations these spikes put out will drive off some burrowers, but will actually attract some. And if they find food, it's a feeding frenzy. After this frenzy consumes everything in your yard, then the burrowers will leave .... and leave your yard in tattered shreds, you in the middle of it, wondering why you wasted $$$ on these stupid spikes.

This product, to be effective, has to be part of a comprehensive lawn maintenance program. Liberal application of castor oil, to keep tasy roots from being too tasty, and proper use of pesticides to keep your lawn grub free.

If you *really want to be rid of burrowers drive rebar 6' feet deep every 2" along the property line. That'll show'em.

This product has a lot of potential.  It vacuums very well when it has an open space to operate.  It cleans exceptionally well on hardwood floors and fairly well on carpeting.  The main reason why I purchased the vacuum is for the schedule feature.  Unfortunately the vacuum consistently gets stuck in the same areas of my home (Dining room chairs, under the edge of two sofas and a recliner).  Because of this I would not purchase again.  When I am home, I spend too much time babysitting it.  It spends half of its battery charge navigating around six dining room chairs (size and shape of the vacuum is a problem).  I had hoped that there would be some form of learning process (especially for large items like sofas, but this has not been the case.  The vacuum will try over and over and over again until eventually it becomes stuck.  Placing magnets down throughout my home on a daily basis is not a desirable solution.

Recommended areas for improvement:
1. Improve filter:  Filter requires cleaning after each use even if bin is not full.  50% of the dust/debris goes into the bin and the remainder is packed densely against the filter.
2. Vent exhaust should angle upwards: The exhaust fan blows parallel to the floor.  This causes dust and other items to be blown around the room and in some cases where the floor has already been vacuumed.
3. Room mapping should include some form of smart mapping:  (i.e.: Stuck 5 x in this area.  Bumped into an item in the same location.  DONT CONTINUE TO TRY 10 more times until stuck!).  If furniture arrangement changes, there could be a reset button so that mapping/learning can be cleared.
4. Return to base for charging: Several times the vacuum will run out of juice and does not make it back to the base for recharging.
5. Room mapping/learning feature:

Need to keep it in a handy location.  It's a great idea since we no longer have a land line.

I love the idea, but they are hard to grip, especially when they are in the cradle. They are discontinued anyway, so if you are lucky enough to find one you probably already know you want it. They do look good

This headphones worked well for a while. My only complaint was that the power button was difficult to get to without taking them off your ears and, even then, it was small and in an awkward location to push. After several months, however, they will not power down at all and are thus unusable. I've e-mailed JBL.

The idea of being able to spray olive oil on fish or a dry pan is a good one, but after serious use, my mistos start to leak and sputter to the point where they just haven't been worth the effort.  I now prefer using a bbq brush or other method of getting my olive oil where it needs to go.

Blue Lounge Cable Drop 6-pack - is like many other products, a Great Idea, but Poor engineering, so I'm assigning a 3.8 Star Rating, even though it will show up as 4 Stars, becasue I know how to squeeze more life from these products.
Since we live in the middle of the Pacific, we always have to either fabricate our own items, Or, take an item and Modify it, and is what I did with these cable drops, since my past expereince with any item that sports a mounting adhesive option, just don't work for the long-haul. including the 'suction-cup' hangers.

USES - For mounting 3 to 8 mm USB, ROUND, charging/sync cables, Earphone cables and larger 7.5 mm single cables.
with USB iPod/Iphone I can mount 2 to 3 easily. I bought these for strictly for Modification.

How-To-Mount on Wood & Metal Suggestions - - Disclaimer: any modification may cancel the terms of a warranty.

1. Tools - small drill set + Bosch Lithium Driver + an array of different sized, brass picture hanging wood screws (phillips head).
2. To mount on Wood (Permanently) - I drilled a 1/32 hole about a 3/8 inches down from the top collar opening of cable drop. Then used a 1/8 inch brass, flathead WOOD screw to mount on a 24 x 2 x 0.5 inch board strip, already on the wall next to my desk.
Note - I did NOT remove the adhessive protective cover, just drilled through it.

3. To mount on Metal surface - first, locate a Magnet that is about the same size as the adhesive back, ~ 1 inch, I got mine from some of the old beer bottle plastic/metal openers, from Wally-World, and the magnets are EZ to remove.
Then, take the adhesive backing OFF and stick to one side of the Magnet. I placed a Book on top for a few minutes.
Now, you can stick cable drop on any Metal surface, and hang your cables.

4. Recommended Adhesive - If you decide just to use the cable drop as is, without any modifications, but they are starting to lose the adhesive sticking ability; Then, I recommend getting a 1 fl.oz tube of either, 3M or Loctite Vinyl/Plastic Flexible Adhesive, as it has worked well for me, I'm sure that other reviewers may have other recommendations too.

Thanks for stopping by ...

The concept is good, but in today's market it is not effective unless you live in a depressed area.
I signed up for the service for 4 months, was not worth the time and money..

The Subject is effective, the paper work offered is not strong enough to close a deal.

The idea is a good one.  There are monthly pages for six months.  And weekly pages for six months.  But there are only four months worth of daily pages.  How is that the right idea?  Ugh.  Disappointed.

This is a good Idea, but in real life. It does not fit on most auto awnings. (better off with the slide in velcro wraps) Theses tracks have to be taken off every time you roll up awning. so if a storm comes up or you think the wind is getting up. time to disassemble. Like I said a much better alternative I have found is the velcro strips. You can use 3 - 4 and they hold the rope up. They also roll up in the awning without damage. and the rope lights come down with ease if needed in time of storm.

This is a perfect example of keep em coming back for more because this sprayer will fail in a few years and the next model will be worse. NOBODY makes any thing to really last. Corp. profits would suffer and when 82% of the wealth is in the hands of 7% of the people that is the way it is going to be. Get used to it,UNLESS! you want a life time hammock then check out [...] this is where you can get your moneys worth

I do think these wear out a bit faster than I really like.  Most people don't use them right and they really don't last anyway, but even if you do correctly lightly press at an angle as you are supposed to do, a few months is usually the most they last with regular use.

There's also the new method that people have started using which will pass being tested by these.  I believe they should make some that can both test the material of the bill and test for the chemicals being used now to make bills that pass these.  Unfortunately, with this new method these can become largely useless.

This could of been a great mobile Echo after they made it so you didn't have to "tap" it to listen. Instead it still remains intentionally crippled. You can't use drop in from it, make calls, include it in groups, or plenty of other features that make it a crippled Echo. I can understand that there may be some regulatory hurdles for allowing a portable device to have access to certain features or battery concerns, but the Tap knows when it is charging on the base. There is no reason that any feature available on the echo should be restricted from being added to the Tap.
