After reading the reviews I thought the quality would be amazing. WRONG. Almost half the bag was shriveled, and those ones did not taste pleasant. I was really disappointed with the quality. I have had amazing cashews and I know that they should taste like.

My expectations may have been too high, but I can't say exactly what they were, just I'm a bit disappointed with the quality.  I think they would break very easily.

I was so excited about this purchase because the pictures looked beautiful and it got great reviews. It arrived earlier than expected and was packaged excellently. However, once I opened the box, it all went downhill from there. The very first piece I took out was the leg and the trim was falling off. While disappointed, I thought "I'll just have the company ship me a replacement." Then I took the next piece out...same problem and the third piece, again had a problem. After that, I packaged it back up and sent it back. With such cheap quality, there is no way I was keeping it!

Dear buyers, I have made the honest mistake of the benefit of the doubt. I read all the reviews and they were somewhat in polar ends so I thought, hey why not! Here are enough reasons:

This dress is absolutely beautiful and adorable...in the photo.

If this dress were half like the photo, I wouldn't complain as much. But obviously it is NOT. In reality, it is dull, eye popping, and very stare holding, all negatively. As mentioned in other 1 star reviews, the quality is poor, it itches me even for several minutes after i took it off, seams are shredded, the color is a dull purple that had lost its life. Few reviews claimed that the dress came out smaller than expected. I am an XS (0-1) and I ordered a Small. It didn't come out smaller. This is a Medium dress. I look like a tiny doll dressed in giant rags!

I contacted the seller in hopes that I could return and get a full refund. Due to unworthy shipping cost, I settled for a 20% refund. The seller suggested that I make the best use of this dress by giving it to someone I know or donating it. I am NOT giving this rag to anyone. I thought about making a skirt out of it but the itch irks me. So for now and for a long time from now, it will just hang around in my closet.

Overall, disappointed. Quality and workmanship is incredible, but unfortunately just wasn't crazy over this one.

Well I bought this item several months ago, and thought I would love it according to other reviews I read.  I'm just now getting around to trying it out.  Very disappointed.  Maybe it's just something I'm not doing right.  Too late to return it, so I may try to use it again sometime.

First and fore most this backpack is amazing. I love the compartments, the flexibility of changing parts and changing parts. Fair WARNING!!! Check the stitching on it before you put your $1300 laptop in it, along with work clothes, because the weight of it may cause holes. I am very disappointed with the quality in this one. I am hoping that this bag is just defective.
I don't know how to get a hold of customer service for this product. So I am hoping that someone here can help me find them and give eithet a call or email. Im sure they will replace it. I will update when I can. I would give it five stars but one of the waist traps fell off while I was walking. I didn't notice it was gone til the next day and so far a $15 dollar backpack can hold up stronger than this one.

I am puzzled by the great reviews.  The highs and mid-range are crisp and clear, however, the bass is almost non-existent.  They lack a deep and rich sound.  They are very comfortable and do block out ambient noise.  Their sound quality is equivalent to the ear buds that come with new iPhones.  What a disappointment.

Follow-up:  Symphonized contacted me regarding the poor quality headphones.  They stated that I probably received a defective pair and then sent me a replacement.  I was not optimistic but agreed to give them another try.  Wow - what a difference.  Yes, my original ones were defective.  Now I understand why there are great reviews.  I'm sure if I spent 10x the amount of money, I may be able to get a better sounding headphone, but for this price, the quality is amazing.  You can't go wrong - and if you have a problem, the company provides excellent customer service.

The quality is not what I expected for something that was marked down from over $100. If I had paid what the original price was said to be I would have been very upset.

I love Keens, my whole family loves Keens.  Between the four of us, we have 10 pairs.  I ordered these hiking boots to replace another pair of Keens hiking boots that served me well through innumerable hikes all of the U.S.  from Denali in Alaska to Death Valley, the Everglades and Acadia.  I do a lot of hiking.  After about 10 plus years with my other Keens, the front ever so slightly started to come off.  Not the Keens' fault.  Two or three times, I dared put them in the washer because they were just too muddy or otherwise gross to wear and every time I washed them,they came out looking great; ready  for the next adventure.  So, I ordered the Shastas because they looked like the ones I bought years ago.  I was wrong or the quality has gone down considerably over the years.  From the minute i held the box, I suspected something was off.  The box was way too light.  My other Keens have some girth.  I opened the box and out came these Keens that looked anemic and to the touch, appeared very low quality.  I tried them on and not only did my toes push the tip(I ordered a half size up thinking of the room I would need with heavy hiking socks),  it felt like there was  zero arch support. They had such little support and quality that I thought I would  feel the slightest pebble on a hike.  So, instead of joining me for some fabulous hikes on the West Coast, they had to go back into their dark box and return from whence they came.  Very disappointing.

I've paid $50.00 before and gotten equipment that's 5 to 10 times as good as this. They say buyer beware. This junk isn't even close to the price I paid. I admit, I should have done my homework better. I hope this saves you from making the same mistake. I bought a Creative Inspire T6100 about 10 years ago, which is a 5.1 similar in size, and I was thoroughly satisfied in every category. Unfortunately I lost some of the speakers in a move. It was very good equipment with a  heavy duty sub woofer. Nothing bad about in my opinion. I hoped staying with a brand I knew and loved was a good idea. I was very badly mistaken. I paid about $55.00 for the 5.1 and I believe $42.00 for this one. I would have gladly paid more for quality comparable to the first unit. I'm not returning it but It's going to my back up computer. I'm really surprised at all the good reviews. Maybe people's quality expectations have lowered.

I was surprised at the quality of these necklaces. I plan to buy different sizes. I literally bought several similar ones at a local jewelry store and paid 10 times as much. (I was in a hurry as it was Christmas) I'm not a jeweler so maybe the quality is 10 times better but as a lay person, I can't tell the difference. And get this- the jeweler had to EVERY SINGLE one back b/c they were so tangled you couldn't get them straightened out ! I was NOT a happy camper.

I was hoping it would look and feel like quality, but it does not. :(  I should have looked more closely at the photos, my bad.

There are certain things that I expect quality wise when making a purchase.  If the item is priced on the higher end of the scale then I expect the quality of said item to be higher than the norm.

I was excited to get the chance to review these boxes but was sadly very disappointed.

Do they serve their purpose?  Yes, they do.  They store things and they can hold stuff.  The lids and boxes work great and are well supported.  The boxes are strong and can support the weight of my 2 year old standing on them.

How are they appearance wise?  From afar they look nice.  The fabric is a nice color and has a tweed like texture.  The boxes can nest inside of each other when not in use.

How is the quality?  Just terrible.  When I inspected the boxes up close I noticed several flaws in construction.

The first problem I encountered was when I opened the smallest box.  The inner cardboard liner of the box just feel right off.  I could see several spots around the outside of the cardboard that were bent.  I have two options.  I can either glue the liner back on myself or I can replace it every time I open the lid for the life span of the boxes.  You should NEVER have to repair an item that is purchased new.

Near the corners of the outsides of the boxes and lids are gaps in the materials.  There are bubbles and open spaces where the cloth should be flush.  There are loose threads everywhere and crooked seams.

One of my boxes has a deep gash in the material on one side.

This quality of this item is seriously lacking.  Someone in quality control is not doing their job or they just do not care to pay attention to detail.  Please see my photos if you don't believe me.

I would not waste your money on this item.  I purchased it at a discount and if I had paid full price there would be zero chance of me keeping the item.

I take my reviewer responsibilities very seriously and you can trust that the above opinions and statements are all true based on the item that I received.

With all of the things you'd expect to get in a good quality shoe I would have loved to have given them a better review. My review has specifically to do with the quality of the boots. I expected these boots, well taken care of, to last for a long time. I figured the soles would be the first to go. Unfortunately, these boots were a big let down. In shortly over 1 year the inside padding of both boots began peeling up. Now the right boot, despite my attempts to "go easy" on them, has a large enough gauge in it that I can't wear them anymore. I feel that I am rather gentle on these boots. I don't work on a construction site or anything. I basically just walk in these boots. Approximately 12K steps per work day. (Thank you smart phone) I got terrible blisters on my foot when I tried to give it a go even with the innerds wearing away. I expected more from the Timberland name.

Quality is great - Size is not what I expected - Definitely one of those things that need to be tried out before being bought

After the great reviews - I thought the quality must be good.  But like others have said, they sound tinny.  Messed with the equalizer settings and still can't find an acceptable sound.  Also have others have said, you can't work out on these.  If the cord bounces on your body at all, there is horrible feedback into the sound stream.  On the bright side, the case is nice.  But I would not purchase again.
