Precise and Cool Design

The mouse is extremely accurate and has very smooth motion. The design looks awesome with the blue LED lights that turn on once you plug the mouse into your computer. Playing StarCraft with this mouse is great.

Obviously the big selling point of this set is the ability to measure liquids precisely from a bird's eye view. Having spent a good portion of my kitchen life hunched over waiting for liquids to settle and level so I could see how much was in the cup, this is a much appreciated concept. And without a doubt the sloping, graduated markings give a more accurate measurement, especially with small quantities.

The sharply pointed pouring spouts are a HUGE plus. I have come to despise my Pyrex measuring cups because of the wide spouts and rolled edges. With the Oxo cups you can pour with great precision, so even pouring into narrow openings is no problem.

I also like the fact that they nest, although it's not the sleekest arrangement I've seen.

On the down side, the interior contouring inhibits mixing inside the cups. So if, for instance, you want to grab a small whisk to mix up a vinaigrette, it's a much clunkier operation than it would be in a cup with a smooth, evenly rounded interior.

Also, the fact that you can't microwave them with wild abandon (as you can Pyrex) makes them less than perfect. Still, they are a top notch addition to a cook's tool chest, and I recommend them without hesitation.

Looks cool, works well--it's everything I wanted.

Okay, first of all: The design for this thing is just awesome. It looks really cool and people will think you're James Bond when you show them your little folding mouse. But there are two sides to this story:

The pros:
It looks freaking cool
The battery lasts a LONG time (I got about four months out of it without turning it off once)
The touch scroll works and feels great
The Blue Track technology will let this thing work anything from my desk to my couch to my glass coffee table
It's absolutely perfect for travel. Incredibly thin when unfolded and it's pretty lightweight. Also:
It seems very durable
It connects easily and almost instantly, even with the first use

The cons:
No bluetooth. This, in the end, was the reason I switched to a different mouse. I bought a Macbook and they only have 2 usb ports.
The clicking is a little hard- as in, if your finger isn't all the way towards the end of the mouse, you have to use some pressure
It doesn't move well compared to other mice-but we'll get to that more in a minute:

The in-between:
The moving thing... it bugged me at first, as did the clicking pressure thing. After a while though, I started kind of wrapping my thumb underneath of the mouse to sort of pinch and slightly lift it as I moved. I got pretty comfortable with this and in the end it actually seemed more accurate than a conventional mouse. I was able to move the mouse very slightly and precisely rather than drag it like a conventional mouse. I do graphic design and that aspect came in handy for my work. I also got used to the click very quickly.

All in all, I really loved this mouse. If they come out with a version that has bluetooth I'll be making the switch back to it.

While doing some casual shopping, I ran across this Skagen in a watch shop. Out of an entire shop full of watches, this one immediately caught my attention. It has an attractive face, which includes a day dial, date dial, and 24-hour dial. These are laid out in a fairly unique and interesting style. Rather than three same sized/colored dials, each one is slightly different. Though such a difference can clash with certain designs, this particular Skagen design looks fantastic. The material also works very well. For this particular watch, the classic titanium design not only looks fantastic, but the mesh-titanium band is great. Not only is it light, but it maintains a cool temperature and allows the wrist to breathe. Compounded with the color of the titanium watch, the entire face and band is eye-catching! I have received many compliments and closer-looks while wearing this watch.

The band adjusts easily enough, but it can be a little difficult on occasion to unlock it to adjust. Adjusting on the fly could be quite difficult unless there is a small tool available to unlock the adjusting mechanism. Also, the 24-hour dial is not something necessary or tremendously helpful for those who are able to easily adjust 12-hour to 24-hour time. The only other minor issue with the watch is how noticeable the face glows in the dark. Going with the minimalistic design, the hour-markers and arms are extremely thin and can be difficult to see for people with less than excellent vision. Further, there is no discernible difference between each hour marker, so if the watch is off the wrist it can be difficult to tell what time it really is without holding the watch. On the wrist, it works well enough, though.

For the price, Skagen has produced an excellent watch. It is affordable, sleek, and eye-catching. It is extremely comfortable to wear, and will be on the wrist almost immediately after taking it out of the box. This particular watch can be worn while dressed up, or dressed down and looks and works great in any situation.

High quality,  and very attractive and efficient design.

I had a couple of digital scales before but this is by far my favorite. Really slim and slick design too. Beautiful, functional and precise. Love it.

I wanted a Bulova Precisionist watch immediately the first time I saw one.  Yes, they are too big and too heavy, but they are undeniably one of the coolest and most beautiful watches made, and they feel great on the wrist! I never got a Bulova Accutron when they came out, and always wanted one. (Yes, I am old.).  The Accutrons carried the tuning fork logo to denote their distinguishing high precision and the smoothly sweeping second hand, and were far more accurate than the mechanical watches of the day.  The Precisionist has this logo prominently displayed on the setting stem, the band and on the face of the watch.  Like the Accutron, it has the smoothly moving second hand, and improves accuracy to about 10 seconds per year, depth sealing to 300 meters and a stop watch function that reads to 1/1000th of a second.  The version I selected is the black model stainless steel model with rose gold hands and dial features, The hands and dial are luminous for reading in darkness. See the attached link.

When I saw the Precisionist I was hooked.  I do not wear any jewelry except a watch, so I have a number of them, each very special in some way or other.  That this watch is precision made is an understatement.  It is much stronger in its construction, even down to the pins that hold the removable links in the band. Parts fit is exquisite. There is also a snap out band extension that increases the band size if you want to place it over a jacket sleeve, and then snap it back to fit your wrist.  I have only seen this feature on dive watches. Operation of the Precisionist is easy, and convenient to use, but since the display of time and timer functions is by mechanical display only, to reading the stopwatch requires reading a series of hands to get to the 1/1000 second:  Hour, minute, second, 1/10 second, 1/100 second and 1/1000 second and add them up.  There is a lap feature timer feature as well.  To be sure, if you are going to use your watch for timing races all the time, get a cheap LCD watch, but if you want a stunningly beautiful, exquisitely made watch that is unique in every respect, get the Precisionist.

Why the 4 stars instead of 5?  The watch gets 5 by itself, but to get the $350 price instead of Bulova's $895 price, the watch comes with a 2 year Amazon warranty instead of the 3 year Bulova warranty.  I preferred the savings over the extra year of warranty.  Also, this model carries the tuning fork logo on the face of the watch, and recent changes by Bulova for the newer models have deleted it on the face.  This may be a feature that makes the watch more valuable in the future.  I bought this watch without a request for a review of any kind.

I got this mouse because my hand and wrist hurt. My doctor told me it was likely the way my hand is situated on my mouse all day. This design is very cool.  It's like shaking hands with your mouse. It keeps my wrist and hand in a much more natural position. And as a mouse, it has great functionality.  I really like it.

These stands are worth every penny.  Beautiful minimal design and super functional, absolutly a universal stand (at least on the two bikes in my garage).  Built rock solid with a thick powder coat.

The only disappointment; they are a little lacking in precision.  The front stand connection between the head-lift portion and forklift portion do not appear to be the same dimension and required some manhandling to fit them together.  When the bikes are lifted off the ground I can see a slight torsion from this poor fitment where the two components do not appear to be aligned.  This does not affect stability or usability (so far).  It is the perfectionist in me seeing this fault, I doubt most people would notice.

Another fitment note, one of the four wheels fits so tight on the shaft it won't move.  I have a feeling I will be able to break that in.

Braun makes great design, clean looking pieces. I first saw this in the gift shop of a museum. So when it came up in a Lightning Deal, I grabbed one. Most watches these days with Quartz movements tell time accurately. This watch is no exception. If you want a nice modern artish looking timepiece you can't go wrong with this Braun design. Flat crystal. Straight sides. Plain strap.

Fits in whether you're going plain or fancy.

I much prefer this over my leather strap. It feels so good to the touch and the design is unique and understated--which is a plus if you're into subtlety. The locking mechanism is one of those "so simple it's brilliant" designs. It accomodates my archtop very well without scratching the finish at all while keeping a very firm hold.

However, keep in mind that your guitar will need two strap buttons for this strap to be of any use.

This is a very good quality watch of an elegant design. It is really very accurate, mine loses one second per day, which is amazing. The hands are highlighted by a top quality luminiscent layer, as well as the indices. The only thing I'd change is the glass: I'm not very fond of acrylic glass, I prefer mineral or sapphire. I'd willingly pay more for a watch like this, if it only had a mineral lens.

Some of the other comments here talk about the brightness of the display and the complexity of the buttons and functionality. The display is rather unique, in poor lighting it does seem a bit faint in intensity but backlight helps and all in all it is very crisp and clean to read, and like the other reviewers the display while worth mentioning was certainly not a dealbreaker for me. Functionality took a little getting used to, but I would say that of any new device. It is a very cool styled watch and the heart rate functionality is stellar. This is the third hear rate monitor watch I have purchased and I have no regrets. Beautifully packaged, and the perfect balance of function and cool design. If you are looking for a heart rate monitor watch for around $100, I seriously think you will be very happy with this one. I know I am. And I'm a self professed 'fussy buyer' ;) - Mark

I love this mouse.  It is relatively small and lightweight which makes it great for traveling.  Also the usb connector and battery fit into a nice closed compartment.  The connector is small enough to leave it in place while on the go and has the bonus of working for multiple devices (a really nice feature for using with other devices like a wireless key board!).  The battery has an extremely long life - even when you are forgetful like me and forget to power it to off.  The design and contours are wonderful making it comfortable to hold.  The movements are very precise and it works over a long distance.  The whimsical design is a pleasant bonus for this high-performing wireless mouse.

It's genius, the design, and concept of it.
