This is the first review I have ever written on amazon...been buying things here for years and years.  Never been so inspired to let others know what TRASH a product is until now.  Don't buy this book.  The editing and proofing committee who worked on this book is a joke.  As a resource guide for TEACHERS... it should be a lot better.  I am upset I wasted my money.  The format is horrible and the practice test at the end has so many confusing questions.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Avoid this product!
This product requires a ridiculously long process of entering a serial number and "registration code"
Problem is - what U received on the box does not work!

After U fail for the 15th time the program re-directs U 2 a website where U will be asked to re-pay 4 what U already bought!

If U don't register the program - it turns off after 15 days! Even if U bought it!
Forget about building a website - think "mindless legal litigation"!

Whoever locked this software needs a boot up their ass!
Now I have to start all over again finding Software that is not locked!

WRONG COLOR, NO HELP, WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!

I was excited after reading some of the reviews. Ordered the book. What a waste of time and monies. My mother, who also does jewelry, looked through it first. She saw one pair of earrings she would make. Then, reading the instructions....using vhs tape...who in the world. I looked through it last night. Very disappointed. I want my money back!

Awful product, poor instructions - advises to download generic drivers which did not work (and take about 1hr to install heaps of bloated crap on your system), downloaded drivers from manufacturers website and got it working once out of four attempts. Google searches and forums suggest multiple restarts, reinstall - this isn't 1998, things should work 100% every time rather than require this kind of trial and error garbage. Don't buy this junk and add to the bottom line of companies that push crappy products out. Expensive considering it doesn't work, and will only waste your valuable time.

If I could give this a zero rating, I would.  Let me summarize:

1.  Upon opening the box, I found tiny fibers all over everything.  At first, I thought it was fiberglass, so instead of spreading it all over my son's room, I set the box aside until I could find out for sure.  After a bit of research, it seems to be "unspun polystyrene" - which is all over everything in the box because the styrofoam packaging is the cheapest that money can buy (and in China, that's cheap).  So, allow yourself an extra 30 minutes to vacuum (and then wipe with a damp cloth) as much of this crap off of every single piece of this garbage furniture as you can - because you can incidentally inhale these fibers, and it's not fun.

2.  When wiping the shiny fibers off of all the pieces of the "cabinet", my damp paper towels were also wiping off what seemed to be black ink, paint, or some other manner of filth off of most of the 9 larger pieces of this product.  I'm glad I wiped them down, so this nasty stuff didn't stain my clothes, or worse, end up on my son or his stuff.  Allow yourself another 10 minutes to wipe all of the pieces down with a damp cloth or paper towel to get all of the crud off of them before "construction".

3.  Seven of the 12 pieces of this trashy thing were badly scratched up.  The product description reads, "non-toxic painted finish", but whatever the finish is, it arrived looking like I bought it from a resale shop - not new from Amazon.

4.  The construction on this thing is all done by hand - your hand.  So, have a screwdriver (both the tool and the alcoholic beverage) handy, as well as a second person to help hold these wads of debris together (because the included dowels are a worse fit than Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football's broadcast team - I know, I'm reaching now).  Screwing on the two cardboard/pressboard backing pieces will also require a blessing from the pope to NOT split the "manufactured wood product" or otherwise damage your (likely) already damaged wood-like cabinet thing.

5.  The notion that you can fasten this to a wall is novel, the inclosed hardware for doing so is a formality.  Get a cheap furniture strap elsewhere if you feel you really need to.  Honestly, I'd be more worried about this heap of rubble simply falling apart if my son climbs on it, not it falling over on him.

6.  The idea that the list price is $148.65 on this thing is a complete fabrication - it has to be.  I don't know how anyone with an ounce of knowledge of how supply & demand works could even suggest that this is worth half that price.  To have paid over $80 for this makes me feel stupid and gullible.  If I had a chance to see this pile of litter before buying, and had to guess the cost, I would have said "no more than $25.00" and meant it.  I will NEVER buy another product from RiverRidge - and I'll be blogging about it, with the hope that any parent who thinks about buying their garbage, looks elsewhere.  Go ahead, try to find River Ridge Kids online.  They don't want to be found, because they know why you're looking for them.

Do NOT waste your money (and time)!  Some other folks who gave this product a high rating said things like it wasn't really meant for TVs and that it was really meant more as a polish or sorts.  Sorry, but the label disagrees ... and lies at the same time.  On the front of the label, it clearly states, "Safely Cleans All Electronics ... Laptops, TVs, Monitors, & Phones."  Keyword is "Cleans."  On the back, it says things like, "... dries quickly while leaving a clean, clear surface;" and they show a picture of a big screen, modern TV with "Streak-free" and "Removes dust ..." written right above it.  A whole bunch of keywords there.

So ... with all that said, I couldn't believe the horrible job it did when I used it on my big screen TV.  Not just bad ... horrible.  Each attempt left large wet spots all over the screen that simply dried in place.  The second time I tried (in order to now clean the mess this Weiman product made), I repeated it but waited a little for the wipe to dry up just a little to see if it would remove or clear the wet spots, but it just made smears.  A microfiber cloth didn't help much.  I began to think that in order to remove some dust buildup, I now made my TV unwatchable and began working on how to repair the mess this product made.  Fortunately, because I'm a really good pack rat (or a bad one according to my wife), I happened to have the old Monster brand blue bottle of screen cleaner in a box in the garage.  With another clean microfiber towel, the Monster cleaner did the trick, although even that took two wipes in order to clean up the Weiman mess.  NOW the television looks perfectly clean and clear.

Obviously, just because they say it on the label, it doesn't really mean much.  I'm giving it a "1" because Amazon's ratings won't go to zero.  This brand's products are off limits to my family from here on regardless of the purpose involved.  Can't be trusted to do the good job it claims.

How this insult to film-making, writing, story-telling, ever saw distribution is beyond me! It is sick, abusive, crude, disgusting, demented and offensive, and that's when it isn't boring beyond belief! The cruelty to animals was over the top, and too realistic to be faked (and there's no disclaimer that animals weren't harmed on screen, because it's cheaper to torture and kill a real animal than to hire CG or special effects). The credits are another sick joke, all the government money and facilities that went into making this crap, only goes to show how creatively tax money can be wasted. The big joke in this movie is on you, (and yes, it's on me) by getting suckering into wasting time watching it. Learned a valuable lesson, though: read the Amazon reviews BEFORE clicking the mouse! If I had, I wouldn't be writing this review, and I wouldn't have had an evening spoiled. I only hope my review, and other one-star reviews, save you from wasting your time.

I recently purchased this item at our local warehouse store.  What a dissappointment.  Followed directions..let steam heat up for 12 minutes and took it into the bathroom to clean soap residue off the shower and clean shower tracks etc. in the standing shower.  There was lots of steam but nothing was cleaned, and I mean NOTHING! Finally, sprayed it with my bathroom cleaner and wiped the grime off.  Moved to the stove in the kitchen (has a ceramic cook top) blasted the steam.....again NOTHING was cleaned.  Took out the oven rack to see if it would remove some light grime on it.  NOTHING!  Took it outside to see if it would clean some bird poop off the siding.....again NOTHING. I tried 2 days in a row to get this thing to clean anything, reread the directions and the only result is clouds of steam with no cleaning power.  What a total waste of time, effort and money.  Unless there is some trick to this that I am missing and someone can inform me of what that might be, DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT!

I can not believe how disgusted I am with this product. The box was in great condition when we received it but when we went to put it together the vacuum was actually dirty and looked very worn down. It looked like some one had used it previously and I had bought it new! This thing was so beat up looking it's disgusting! Such a waste of money. Thank you for ruining this gift!

I hated that I even had to give this book 1 star!

I currently practice palo, santeria and espiritismo (and will eventually be practicing voodoo) and this book was nothing but a bunch of garbage. First of all, all the author did was rant and rave throughout the whole book. And the section about the prostitute using "voodoo" to get more money out of her clients was not only ridiculous, as a woman I was deeply offended. Another thing about this book that disturbed me (besides the fact that it had NOTHING to do with voodoo WHATSOEVER) was that they mentioned certain things about Santeria-things that NO ONE should take lightly or play with. I am sure that this goes for any religion-forces of nature are not to be played with. Eleggua ain't no joke!!! I was so angry that I had bought this book, luckily the store I bought it from gave me my money back the next day. (And they haven't ordered any additional copies of it either). S. Jason Black is irresponsible, and is trying to make a quick buck. And believe me, Eleggua will make sure that he gets his. Please do not put any more money in Mr. Black's pockets by buying this book!

Absolutely Horrible product. I had trouble transferring my material from my Tree Maker 2005. Once it accepted some of the files but not all. It is difficult to usa and constantky wants me to subscribe to Ancestry which I HATE because of the difficulty in navigation.  I really would like a refund since it is a waste of money for me. I love the 2005 version but my new computer is not compatable with it so I am totally frustrated with the mess this 2011 version has made of my many hours and days and months of research.

Sorry to be so negative but I HATE Tree Maker 2011 and I HATE Ancestry.com as well.<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Family-Tree-Maker-2011-Deluxe/dp/B0041DTNI2/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Family Tree Maker 2011 Deluxe</a>

Seriously not worth a penny. An utter and complete waste of resources and your time. My son even said it looked "janky."  I retuned it immediately and felt the pang of discontent one gets from knowing all the time wasted, from all the lives of the unfortunate souls who partook in the packing, delivery and return of this sorry excuse for a cheap plastic toy.

Other than that, it was horrible.

Why Amazon sells this, I have no idea.

Wasted a lot of money for this stuff was not cheap!  I have a Hottub and a Swimspa both one year old and I know its filthy.  This product did not do a single thing!  I saw a small patch of brown foam about 18 inches by 18 inches and I could clean. that out with my net.  VERY DISAPPOINTED FOR IT CLAIMS TO DO SO MUCH MORE!  I feel ripped off t5o tell you the truth!

After a year and a half I can say that this product is absolutely horrible.  I can also say that the predecessor to this product was also horrible.  I was so excited about the idea of having a wireless hard drive that I was willing to give it a second shot, but never again.

My problems are vast, but essentially both products have been essentially useless.  Not only that, the products are clunky, non-intuitive, and time consuming.  All together, I have spend over 50 hours trying to get the drives to work appropriately, only to finally realize that it is not worth it.

I do not rate my purchases on amazon often, but I have been so disgusted by this product that I feel like I must warn other potential buyers.
