Want to love this product but...

It works just fine except that it won't auto play the last song that I was playing before turning off the car. Connected right away with wife's iPhone 4S. No issues with bluetooth, sound is crystal clear.

I bought this product in the hopes that it will auto play the last song but apparently it doesn't.

If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know.

Yes, I will recommend this product to anyone as it reduces the distractions while driving.

I want to love this product but..... the cheese grater cracked the first time I used it. For the price I should have known what I was getting, it's a great deal, but it's cheap plastic. I will still keep it though because the egg separator is nice when I make white cakes. the egg whites fall right into the cup so it is less awkward than the kind you hold like a spoon and wiggle around doing the dangerous dance of 'will I break the yolk or drop it in the bowl?'. But again, I had to go spend more money and buy another cheese grater, so, 3 stars.

I want to love these. I really, really do. And maybe after I go buy a glass water bottle to use, I just might, but as of right now I'm not horribly impressed. I have tried a few different types of water bottles, and replaced the rubber washers, and tried different directions to insert the terracotta part, and the direction of the hole on the plastic insert and they just don't work all that great.

They work great for about 2 days, but once the water level in the bottle gets below the 2/3rds mark, it starts letting out way to much water and the next thing I know I have super wet counters.

I am going to keep trying, if I find a solution to this problem I will be sure to re-review.

I am so disappointed! In theory this is great. However, I still have it a go despite the reviews from other readers. Mine fits on the dressing bottles, but the to will not thread on. I have tried over and over (and even instituted hubby's help) and still it won't go on. I am using it on a plastic bottle, so that can't be the issue. I couple of times, I thought I finally had it on, and then upon squeezing, dressing came out of the sides of the item and all don the sides of the bottle. Tis product does not work. I was thinking of purchasing the version where you put the dressing right in their bottle (so there is no threading on a top needed) but I will need to closely read those reviews first. Hopefully they plan on working on this item as it is a great idea. It's just not quite there yet. And based on everyone else's feedback, I'm not the only one struggling here. It appears there are several issues. Too bad!

let me say first that i really really LIKE this product and wanted to LOVE it...but theres 2 issues that are deal breakers for me and caused me to return it.

Deal Breaker 1 = if you want to use the ipad handheld/without propping it up on the stand, then you need to set the case aside. The ipad will not lock into the case when lying flat (the ipad doesn't really lock into it at all regardless). It doesn't even rest evenly in the case laying flat, it kind of rocks around on the curved back.  This is a major issue for me - as i really wanted an all-in-one case.

Deal Breaker 2 (which i could overlook if #1 was resolved) -- when you have the ipad in storage mode (ie., the screen is laying flat) -- the ipad does not feel like its held in securely. Aside from the fact that back of the ipad is exposed,  If feel that if i put the ipad in my handbag in this case that the pad would fall out.  You would need to put this into an additional travel case or ipad sleeve of some sort.

Based on my issues above, i really don't even consider this an IPad CASE, its more of an IPad stand.  If i was reviewing this solely based on quality & versatlility as a stand, then i'd give it 5 stars, but as someone who travels often and is using the ipad out of the house, im giving it 3.

That being said, this is a really great product to use as a stand around the house or laying in bed.  There are multiple viewing/typing angles and the ipad does seem secure when propped up (i even walked around the house with it and it didn't feel like it would fall out).  Its also a nice looking and well made product -- it matches the ipad almost perfectly, is lightweight, and sturdy.

If Zagg comes out with a version to solve the issues above then i would definitely buy this product again.

I was really wanting to love this product ... and I sorta did.  The issue I have with it is the length of the inseam.  It ends right below my knees.  All the fabric did was rub my knees making it very unpleasant.  If they offered a shorter version of this, it would be a stellar product.

I really wanted to love this! It worked out okay for a while. Some nights my little guy was able to pull them off his hands. Other nights he just used the textured side to rub his face. But then there was this one time, the very last time they were on his hands, when they scratched his face!!! Its gotta be the Velcro. Its just frustrating because the whole reason to use this product in the first place is to keep baby from scratching himself! Oh well. Otherwise, its very pretty. And soft. Too bad.

I want to love this product, I really really do! But they don't give sizes!

I would like to give this product 5 stars, but there are issues that must be addressed before I can do so.
Positive: The product works as advertised. The product looks modern and sleek. It's easy to set up and the app is fairly easy to use. The price was good at Costco but not good on ARLO.com.
Negative: I could not get my backyard camera to trigger when I was testing it. I tried over and over again. I was going to pull the camera down and remount it elsewhere, until I discovered that the alarm would not trigger for motion, UNTIL I CLOSED THE APP. That seems goofy to me and I would have been really pissed off if I had to tear it down and remount it, just to find that the original spot was perfect.
The batteries said they were at 95% after just two days of usage. I set the video to reduce battery drain, but it still seemed to drain quickly.
Arlo provides conflicting information about rechargeable batteries. It states clearly in the owners manual that customers should only use "NON-rechargeable batteries".... HOWEVER.... Arlo is selling rechargeable batteries for this product on their website.  Question: We should never use them, but you'll still sell them to us?  Really?  Is this like the tobacco companies?
The streaming image during camera placement lagged for several seconds which was annoying. Every time I moved the camera, I had to wait 20 seconds or more for it to catch up with the image on my phone. That greatly lengthened the set-up process.
The sensitivity picked up every car that drove by, so I had to reduce it. Arlo needs to have the functionality to set up "zones" on the screen to specify the scanning area so that it can be customized. Not everybody has a perfect little square landscape to cover.
Lastly.... the price of an additional camera is nearly as much as the entire 2-camera kit that I bought? What kind of a rip off is that? C'mon Arlo.. you already got my business, don't price gouge me now.

I so wanted to love this product. It is well made but not perfect or practical to use. I began to load it with 5 cards as it stated, it does hold the cards tight but the cards bow. Over time my cards will surely  crack as it bends your cards-- Not a good thing!  Not worth the price. For me the money side is the only side I would use. I feel the company needs to go back to the drawing board and come up with a way that the cards will not bend.

Conceptually, I love this product--not so great in its execution though.  I love the 24-7 mode simulating the various times of day. Its weakest link is the remote control. I ordered two of these over a three-week period, and the remote control (or the receiver) just quits working--with no manual controls on the unit itself you're stuck in whatever mode you last set it for. The other problem is that there is nothing protecting the LEDs from moisture from the tank...and the manufacturer won't honor the warranty if they determine the damage was caused by water. Most other manufacturers at least cover the lighting chamber with a plastic membrane.

Coralife makes a similar unit that costs roughly the same. It appears that they use an RF transmitter and receiver that seems to function reliably. They have also covered the lighting chamber.  Hopefully the folks a Finnex will read some of these reviews and make some simple changes to improve their product.

I wanted to love this product since it's so hard to find a deodorant that I can actually use. The fragrances are very pleasant and it rolls in smoothly. I didn't stink for many hours after application (I think about 8 hrs was the life for me which is really good). But I still react to this one as well. I know I'm sensitive to both aluminum and baking soda, and I thought this would be safe, but I'm guessing potassium alum is the same as aluminum for me, just not as strong a reaction. Likely it's good for someone not as sensitive as myself.

I really want to love these... I am on a sugar free diet, and love all the water enhancers I have purchased, as well as the plain stevia drops.  I just have not yet developed a taste for stevia in hot beverages!  You can definitely taste the raspberry and chocolate, but I get the "aftertaste" on my tongue when I try to use in my coffee :(.

The idea of this product is a good one, but it has some fallbacks.  After about 20 hours using this product (not straight of course) I had a few grievances with it. For one thing, I wish it would have come with 2 of every thumb stick enhancer (I realize it isn't called that but I cannot think of the proper name at the moment) but unfortunately it does not. In no way is this lack of two identical enhancers false advertising but it is simply a wish for future products.  As for the skin for the controller itself, it could be improved.  To me it feels as if it makes my hands sweat easier than usual. as for the texture, it is rather peculiar.  It is studded but one way or another I wouldn't recommend it over something that a more name brand would release.  If it was more of a rigid texture that was constantly weaving with itself, it would be fantastic. Also one thing to know if you are as OCD as I can be at times is that the back fixture will not lay flat without something like tape holding it down.  Aside from that generally I feel like this is a product that does its job, just in a very poor manor.

I want to love this.  The size and thought that went into making this special for car use of devices connected to it is terrific.  My only con is the sound quality having a buzz in it that appears to come from the power adapter. I purchased another device from another company that did not have the sound issue, but had an annoying strobe light on it and on board battery which confuses bt devices that I want to connect only when the car is on.  I wish this unit was better grounded or maybe a better grounded usb cable on the device.

Edit 4/2015: I added a device to remove the buzz by isolating the ground.  This goes between the audio out from the Mpow and audio in of my head unit.  Works great now.  The should be built in ot packaged with this product.

I love the idea behind this product, and upon first examination it feels sturdy and well-made. However, having used these for only about a month (I have two cats), I have already encountered two incidents where urine seems to have leaked through the bottom of the box. The sections of the box walls that are indented, where the indentations begin and those inside edges meet the bottom of the box, seem to be the most vulnerable areas. Inside the box, these areas form small, "sharper" corners that I believe aren't strong enough to withstand contact with cat urine (and they are not as strong as the "normal" corners of the box, which have a smoother surface and more gradual curvature). For anybody who's curious, I'm using SmartCat grass-based clumping litter, and yes: I do scoop the box very regularly. I shudder to think what might happen if I used this box with non-clumping litter!

It seems wrong to advertise these so confidently as a product that "won't leak", because it certainly seems that they can and do leak. For now, I've had to line the area underneath and around the box with paper grocery bags to try to catch future leaks before they get to the carpet, but I think I'll need to buy a waterproof litter mat to go underneath the box if I really want to protect my carpet.

Other than that, the concept is great, and disposing of my first one was very easy - no deep-cleaning, just put it in a garbage bag and throw it away. It fits into a standard kitchen-sized garbage bag. I'll probably continue using these (with a mat underneath) because the maintenance is so easy. Cleaning a flat litter mat occasionally seems far preferable to deep-cleaning a plastic box.

One nice thing about this product is that since it's disposable, you can just stop using it when it's due to be discarded if it's not the right fit for you (no need to find a new home for the item in the same way that you might for a plastic box). The price is great, too. I just wish these were actually leak-proof.

Well.  I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with this product.  When I add the water, as directed, it is immediately soaked up by the potato flakes.  Afterward, microwaving is tricky.  I've toyed with the idea of removing the flakes, microwaving the water, and adding flakes back in.  But, that's not the way this is supposed to work.  I don't know.  I'd really love to love this product, but I just cannot.  Rated 1 star based on the fact that preparation instructions are flawed... or something.
