Great product, but could use a few minor tweaks

I purchased a pair of the heavy-duty StabilIcers to take with me to Stockholm, Sweden, for the winter. I'm overweight, and have a knee problem that limits my stability quite severely on ice and slick surfaces. I have, in the past, used stretched-rubber oversoles with carbide tipped spikes (available for ~150 SKr in most Stockholm shoe shops). These have worked poorly; tough to get on and off while standing (basically, you really need to take off your shoes!), and tended to slip out of position on shoes.

The Stabilicers work like a charm! I feel fully confident striding around town, crossing ice / slushy snow with ease.  They are much easier to put on and retain; it helps to have a bench to  hike a leg up on, but it's not strictly necessary.  They stay in position fairly well, and feel like an extension of my feet.  As I've only been using them for a week, I have no verdict yet on the lifetime of the screws underneath. I suspect, however, if you use them as I do (mixed snow / ice / slushy streets and sidewalks) you will wear the screws down within a few months.  Rest assured, replacing the cleats is a trivial process, and their replacement cost is fairly minor.

The drawbacks:

These things are NOT quiet.  Locals (especially Swedes!) who know how to walk on ice and snow and don't have knee problems, will stare at you like you are a freak. Even the old people. Just grin and bear it.

These things do not fold up. The rubber is fairly rigid, and you really can't bend them in two to stuff them in a pocket when you go into a store. I usually carry a plastic bag in a pocket to shove them into when I go into and out of a store. Or stick them in my backpack.

These things cannot be worn indoors, at all. They will instantly put divots into linoleum (oops).

Improvements:

The only improvements I could suggest would be:

1) The toe strap; it only sinches across the foot. It would be nice if the piece that runs along the foot, from the front to the toe band, could also be cinched down and tightned. Since the StabilIcers are designed to fit multiple shoe sizes, this would be a really good feature.

2) The toe strap. Perhaps make it a bifurcated piece of fabric, instead of a single strip. More like a bicycle toe clip? It would make it easier to get them on and off.

Overall, these are a wonderful device that I'm getting a lot of use out of. They make it so that I can spend time in the outdoors during the rare days of sun during the Swedish winter. If you have knee problems, get yourself a pair of these!

This a great keyboard/protector, very useful and I am glad I purchased, and the price if fair for such a sturdy product.
I only give 4 stars fro three reasons:
The Bluetooth connectivity is not automatic, you have to go to settings every time you turn it on. (This should be remediated on the next version.)
If you use if for another language - NOTE: since the keyboard is not iOS - the layout is that of the other language, so 20% of they keys don't match up to the US English keyboard. (This, too, should be fixed.)
It is hard to take ictures with the keyboard dangling, so you have to be careful.
Having said this, it is a worthwhile purchase (I would buy it again or as a gift).
It is a stable platform watching Netflix and WiFi cable TV in bed, too!

I bought this product from Amazon after wearing out my first one, which I had received as a gift and used virtually every day for several years.  Both have been great for my purposes, which includes packing for ready use a screwdriver, among other items, in the open compartment.  The correctable problem I've had is the tendency for the screwdriver to make a hole and push through the bottom of the product pocket.

I fashioned a simple fix for this problem by cutting a suitable rectangular segment of flexible PVC from a coffee can lid, folding it in half, and slipping this into the open pocket to create a more impenetrable barrier for sharp items like the screwdriver and a carpenter's pencil.  No more issue with holes, and the modified product is now a five-star one for me.  Nite Ize might want to consider improving the product with this modification; but, as it is, the modification is simple enough for any user to make on his/her own.

I love this product and would give it 4.5 stars if possible. The main way I use this is to connect it to my smartphone through Bluetooth an listen to online music services.

It has one design flaw: the entire unit is matte black and on the top are six buttons with symbols for forward, back, etc.  The symbols, however, are very difficult to discern unless you hold the unit in a certain light. It shouldn't be so hard to see these.

Recommendation: 1. improve the buttons; 2. I would have been willing to pay a little extra if there were a remote to mute it and turn volume up and down without using the buttons on the unit itself.

I've used it for about two weeks and the sound is great and it connects easily to nearby Bluetooth devices. I would buy it again.

Very good job.

Pretty good product, the sound quality is awesome, stable connection bet ween device, awesome docking system. I'm happy with it.
But there is a couple of things that need improvement:
- slow boot of the system
- infrared remote range is not great at all you have to face the speaker. Even if this
- remote control button difficult to read
- no color effect or settings for the light.

LG engineers can do much better.

I'm very satisfied with this product, but I feel that there are some cons that I should list out that I wish I had known prior to making the purchase. I'll start with the pros first:
-One of my biggest fears was that it wasn't going to be as sturdy as advertised, but It is actually doing a pretty swell job of holding up my gaming console (ps3) and occasionally my laptop.
-I love that it looks really sleek and clean, adds a good look to any set up.
-You are able to adjust the level of the shelves and add more if you wish.

Now on to the cons:
-You are technically supposed to be able to 'hide' the electrical cords/hdmi cables/ etc. behind the center bar, but it's really inconvenient if you don't have wires that are long enough to go straight through the center bar, there are these dividers on both sides that you can't just have it come out short.
-The shelves do sway left and right which gives it the illusion that it's really unsafe and about to collapse. Also if you wiggle the shelves itself slightly you're able to lower it without first loosening the screw...that also took points off for sure

Overall though this was a good purchase that I was glad to make. Would recommend this to others.

This is a well-made product that performs as advertised, but there are a few things buyers should be aware of:

1) Because of the embedded privacy protection elements (referred to as "privacy louvers" in the product description), the screen protector does block some of the light coming from your phone. Thus, it will make the screen appear a little darker. However, I boosted the screen brightness a little bit, and that compensated for the protector just fine.

2) Again because of the privacy elements, the screen protector makes the iPhone screen appear a bit grainy. This is only noticeable up close, and is evenly distributed, so it is not annoying. I just want to make it clear that the image is effected somewhat.

3) Installation is easy, but it is tough to get the protector on without trying a few times, and dust tends to accumulate during the installation. This is easily fixed by lightly dabbing the dust on the adhesive side with a bit of scotch tape or masking tape. It quickly removes the dust without messing up the adhesive surface if you are careful.

Overall, I'd definitely recommend this product as long as you are aware that the screen will look slightly different (darker and a bit grainier). Considering the added privacy protection (which works very well), I think the tradeoff is worth it. I doubt there exists a privacy screen like this without those tradeoffs, so if you want to prevent others from sharing your screen, then this is the way to go!

Great product, neat design, I just wish that the part that mounts to the CD slot was a bit smaller. The phone sticks out further than I would have liked. I also had to use it upside down because the bottom bulge interfered with my volume knob (2012 Nissan Rogue). No big deal though, as it works just as well upside down. I'd like to see the same product in a more compact design to get the phone closer to the dash.

Overall I love the design, easy to use, and can pop it in and out with one hand. Using the CD slot is a great idea, and I actually was looking for something specifically for that mounting location, and was hoping something like this product existed.

Very nice fit and finish of the overall product.  Feels like a well constructed product with a quality rubberized plastic finish.

I love this earring rack! The only suggestions that I have is that 1) the bottom should be a tray instead of open - that would allow you to have a place for you extra backs, single earrings, etc. 2) the rows have some uneven number of wholes(not too big a deal cause I do have a few "single" earrings and 3) the wholes are a bit large for when you have very tiny earrings - they fall through the whole. That all said, I would buy another one but I would LOVE another one with the modifications I suggested :)

Close to 5 stars, but just a bit of room for improvement in a few areas.
First up, all of the screws and other parts come in a single bag.  After working on putting this TV stand together I found myself wishing that Sauder had done like one of their competitors had for a stand I bought for another area a few years ago.  That particular manufacturer put all of the screws and small parts into a pack that comes separated by part type so you can easily identify screw "J" or screw "K" because they were pre-separated.  That keeps people like me from using the wrong screw when can't quite tell which screw is which.  While you should be able to tell which screw is which, you might mix them up and use the wrong one and then be left possibly unable to use another wrong screw to complete the build.
Second, I like the sliding door but couldn't tell by looking at the original pictures here at the A - Z store that the door slides.  Once I figured that out I was much more interested in purchasing this stand.  That said, I find myself a little disappointed that the side with the shelves isn't a little wider.  I'd like just a little more room on that side, even if I lost a bit on the drawer side.  Likely impossible to get what I want there though as if I did get it it would likely mean the sliding door would still block the shelves when slid over to the smaller drawer side.
The drawers hold a fair amount of content but it may take you a few tries to align the sliders so the drawers all stack up without hitting each other.  I didn't knock the score down for that, but would warn other purchasers to factor in some tinkering/adjustment time to get things aligned.
The holes on the back of the shelf side don't line up that well with the shelves.  I used a utility knife to cut out more of the back cardboard material to make the holes bigger so I could get the cables for my gaming consoles out and up or down as necessary.
I like the size of this stand a lot. I was previously using a microwave cart from many years ago as my TV stand.  This stand is slightly shorter, and wider.  I wanted the extra width as it basically was almost exactly the size of the space I had available.  I was also concerned about the height and this worked out to be a little shorter than that old stand was, even after doing another mod to this stand -- the other main area of possible improvement from my point of view -- as I added caster wheels to make it easier to move this stand.
Moving this stand, once built is not that easy as it is made of MDF and is rather heavy.  Even with the drawer bottoms and back being thinner material, the rest of the main pieces are thicker MDF and once it is all assembled it is best handled by two rather than one person.  With the wheels that I added (which I found a four pack of at a local site for a major home hardware depot chain) moving this stand is much easier.  Actually I went with installing a total of 6 wheels.  Each wheel was rated for 50 pounds, by combining 6 the rating for the set of wheels would come up to about 300 pounds.  The wheels I used were small so they didn't add much height to the stand, though again, thankfully this stand wasn't too tall for the space I wanted to use it, even once I added wheels.
Oh, one more preference comment from me - I wish the door was a different color, or perhaps had used the same wood grain as the rest of the stand.  Related - I did see other reviewers and comments suggesting this stand is darker than shown in the pictures.  I didn't notice it as being that much darker, but either way I think it looks pretty nice for what it is.
Instructions for assembly, except for the issue of making sure what screws are which, were easy enough to follow.  Assembly time for me was about 2 to 3 hours, plus the time to add the wheels.  Tools needed: Philips screwdriver and Hammer to nail the back cover on.  Utility knife (later) to expand the size of the pre-scored holes/punch-outs for the cables.

A great product with needed improvements making it better than original product

I'm giving this five stars, despite some minor weaknesses, because this is an awesome product for the price.  It's easy to set, cute, and works great.  Almost from day one, our daughter has stayed in bed until it turned green, and then proudly carried it out of her room to show us.

The two flaws we've found:
1)  It tends to get reset if dropped - time, wake time, etc all get zeroed out.
2)  It would be nice to have an "ok to wake/green light" nap timer separate from the morning one.

Great product, wish you made it for the iPad/iPad Mini

Works great, missing a star because I had too Make Improvements... Other wise it's Great

Great products, although if I had any gripes it'd be -

- Why can't I change the colors? Or even get a fading effect?
- Keyboard is a bit dim, in particular.

The dock itself is great with a few minor quibbles:

1. The arm is rather short, which is a small problem in my car since the windshield has a very steep angle and the dash is textured, meaning I can't use the adhesive mount. I resolved the issue by mounting it high on the windshield and turning it so the screen is landscape allowing me to slide my phone in and out easily.
2. The cord is not terribly long (about 3'), so if your power outlet is low on the dash or below it you will have limited reach for placing the dock.
3. As many other reviewers have already stated, you cannot have a case on the phone when using this dock; it covers over half of the phone with a tight fit, so it's either case at all or having to remove before docking.

If those issues aren't a big problem for you, this is a great dock: auto enables the Car app upon docking, which has great features and is almost completely customizable.

I'd give this 4.5 stars if possible. It's a great product, perfect for HTPCs, but it has a few minor frustrations that come with it.

First of all, the Pros:

I have four HTPCs in my house, all running Windows Media Center and Plex. I had been using a cheap USB infrared sensor, which I programed into a Harmony remote on every HTPC. They worked great for a long time, but recently some of them stopped functioning properly. Two machines are Windows 7, and still work as usual and as expected. Two others run Windows 8. Both of those stopped accepting play, pause, stop, etc. They would only accept directional inputs, enter, and back. Nothing I would do would fix it permanently. FLIRC, however, runs perfectly because it appears to the computer as a keyboard, not a remote.

And the Cons/frustrations:

First of all, there is software available to program it for Windows, Mac, and Linux. I first tried to program it on my Mac, but because it shows up as a keyboard, OS X wants you to press various buttons to detect what kind of keyboard it is. Since it doesn't actually have any keys, there's no way past this little annoyance. Perhaps the product support forums have a remedy, but the point of this was ease of use, not digging through online forums to find work-arounds.

Second, there are preconfigured keyboards built into the software, from a simple directional pad (up, down, left, right, select/enter, and back), a full keyboard, and program layouts for XBMC, Amazon Fire TV, and Windows Media Center. I bought this for WMC, and went straight to that program layout. It didn't work out so well for me, the remote buttons didn't work as expected when I tried them out. HOWEVER, if you just search for Windows Media Center keyboard shortcuts, and program it with the full keyboard, it works fantastically. It can emulate any key or key combination (shift, ctrl, alt, windows + key) - it's unfortunate that this did require a little digging online for a work-around.

Overall, I'm glad I bought this, and am looking forward to receiving a second one for the other HTPC that's misbehaving. I would recommend this product as the best option for controlling an HTPC with a standard remote control.
