skeptical at first - but wow

I've always chosen firm mattresses, preferring a floor to a pillow top. This mattress is amazing - i wake every morning with nary an ache or crick in the back. It's incredibly comfortable no matter which way I'm sleeping: back, side or stomach. Truly wonderful.

the mattress came compressed and rolled up, easy to transport to the bedroom by myself. Within a few minutes after opening the packaging, it had expanded - i gave it a few hours just to be sure it had a chance to fill out unencumbered. Love this thing.

Only thing: because it's foam, you can't really sit on the side of the bed like with a spring mattress (if you're getting dressed, for example).The edge will just sink down to accommodate your weight, rather than provide a stable sitting surface. But it's for sleeping - which it excels at - so if I need to change, i'll use my chair.

I was very skeptical when my boyfriend bought this book because I was already satisfied with our sex life and also was worried this book would be a platform for men to get an ego boost pretending to understand women. But I was shocked by how exponential the improvement was. I would really recommend this to anyonewho is open to learning- things went from good to incredible.

I have a unique set up and was very skeptical when I purchased the Airport Express.  Being primarly iTunes in nature and having a large library, plus the addition of a new surround system really pushed me over the edge to give this unit a try.

I am a PC user and software developer (making my living aligned with the evil empire with ASP.NET and c#).  I have thoroughly researched all reviews on this item.  I have delved into Apple products in the past and been very satisfied (iPhone 3G being the most recent).  So without further banter, here are my findings:

- My set up is FIOS (Fiber Optic) 30 Meg down/5 Meg up.  My primary data access point (router) is a Linksys N router.  I bought this unit late in 2007 and just recently did a firmware upgrade.

- I have four PC computers that run Windows XP SP2.  There are no Macs in my house but when my little ones need one for school, that is the first computer I am going to buy them.

Here is the installation I performed:

1) Hooked the Airport Express into my Linksys router via ethernet port as suggested in instructions.  Did not plug Airport Express in.

2) Installed Airport Express software on my most used laptop.

3) Plugged Airport Express in and opened the Airport Express software.  The software tried to locate the Express and could not find it after dozens of tries.  I then (Mac users, you can laugh now) decided to REBOOT my laptop considering most software installs require one on PC's.  After reboot I re-opened the Airport Express software.  It was located successfully.

4) Ran through the Airport Express wizard where I wanted to add to an existing network.  All steps are very straight forward.  When I got to the encryption key to enter for my secured wireless network, things began to break down.  My network was set to WEP 128 bit encryption and the Airport could only handle WEP with a 13 character key.  I then logged into my Linksys router settings and decided to use WPA2 Personal and reset the key (Express can handle three types of security).  I re-ran the wizard, entered the key and viola, my laptop connected to my Airport Express.

5) With my home receiver unit set up with the splitter wire I purchased at the Apple store, I opened iTunes.  There was a new control at the bottom of the app which says: "My Computer" or "The name of your Airport Express you entered during the Wizard".  I pointed my iTunes toward the Airport Express and held my breath (after turning up the volume very loudly on my new system).  Within seconds, my music was effortlessly streaming wirelessly to my home stereo as advertised.

I have had zero drops with my PC, Linksys and Apple set up.  I have played the music for at least 6 hours so far.  I am very pleased with the purchase.  Outside of a a Windows reboot and resetting of wireless security on my main data access point (Linksys) set up was very easy.

I have another Airport Express unwrapped waiting to see if all of my peripherals will allow for a wireless print server on my Dell all-in-one.  I'm not holding my breadth here as my Dell is very restrictive.  But if the Express holds serve here, I may buy a Mac computer that day.

I can't believe this light - especially for the price!

I purchased after reading about it in various online forums - and boy is it worth the price!

I ordered two just to see how they worked, fit, function, etc - and now I'm ordering more!

I put a AA battery in it and couldn't believe how bright the light is.

Took it outside after dark and illuminated my back building (100 yards from my home) without any problems - and saw details like I was using a small spotlight.  Illuminated my neighbors home...amazing.  Moved it from spot to flood and illuminated a LARGE area around me.

I put a little petroleum jelly on the threads to make it "more" waterproof - I don't think it's actually waterproof - more like water resistant - but that's now what I purchased it for - it's going to live in my backpack, one in a drawer by my bed, one in each car, etc.

Time to order more of them!

I was a bit skeptical but this just works every time.

I was very skeptical going into this book, but it has made a tremendous difference in my energy levels, digestive issues, sleep, etc.  And, although it is not a quick weight loss plan, I did lose 12 pounds over 6 months -- all while increasing my daily calories from 1200/day to 2300/day.  Whether you go "all in" like I did, or just implement a few of her tips, it is well worth reading.  Be forewarned, some of Kate's tips are shocking (at least to me) -- e.g., Kale is goitrogenic (thyroid inhibiting)  -- but I found them to be backed by solid research.

Was skeptical.

Will be purchasing a second for the guest bedroom.

Took some getting used to but this is so awesome I can't even believe it.

Wow! What an improvement! I almost can't believe how good this product is.

I have to admit, I was extremely skeptical about various aspects of these lights, but I figured I'd give them a try because they sounded like they'd be so cool!  I should preface this, my first review,  with that fact that I'm not exactly a spring bunny and "technology" isn't one of my strong suits. So, here it goes....WOW! Although I I did have a moment of trouble when I first plugged in the lights (I think that I must have done something wrong), my second attempt proved more than successful.  Even though it was bright daylight, the hue and brightness of the lights were fantastic! My next doubt,  the outdoor installation, was also removed.  The adhesive on the strip was excellent and stuck firmly onto the upper portion of an overhanging porch.  I had the entire set up and ready in a matter of minutes.  I tested the lights at that point and was again impressed by the colors, but worried a bit about how bright the lights would actually be at sundown.  Later that night and in the midst of our 4th of July party, I turned on the lights and immediately, a collective "oooooo" came from our party goers!  Their amazement then skyrocketed when I put the lights on the "music" mode and the lights changed color to the beats of the music we were playing!  I can't count the number of people who were so interested in the lights that they wanted more detailed information about them and specifics as to the name brand and and where I got them.

So, my overall impression? I LOVE THESE LIGHTS and am getting several more sets to light up the rest of my backyard!

I was kind of skeptical about this when I bought it, but after using it, I'm in love!!! Whoever invented this needs a major high five!

I didn't expect it to work but it does.  I am amazed.  Highly recommend.

I too was skeptical about this after reading the reviews. They are all over the place?! I think the set up frightened away those who hate tech; just follow the instructions. I have had flawless performance with a slow Internet averaging about ~2 Mbps. Sound feels the room with clean, clear sound with just the right amount do bass. I listen to a lot of guitar and it sound like their in the room with you. Its so nice to be able to use your iphone/ipad to pause and control volume! It's small footprint is just right. I don't know why the others have had trouble, but for me it's the cars meow. I was willing to give it a go as I got it at a nice discount. I recommend this product.

I am skeptical of devices that seem too good to be true, which is what I thought about this product. And it's pretty much why I left it sitting in my kitchen for a couple of months (and not trapping any mice at all, because I detest snap traps more than anything). I flat out didn't believe that this trap would be effective. Well, after getting very tired of hearing a couple of mice scurrying through the house over the past couple of days, I finally baited this trap and put it down where I knew mice were traveling in the kitchen. Lo and behold, last evening, when I got home from work, there were two mice in the trap! I promptly took them for a ride and released them. When I returned home, I cleaned the trap, baited it again and returned it to where it worked before. I am completely pleased with this trap, and recommend it to anyone who would prefer to avoid snap traps, glue traps or other methods of trapping mice.

I was skeptical at first but was won over by this product.  I originally bought the air purifier to help our family's allergies and sinus problems.  It was hard to believe that a product that has no filters, nothing to clean or wash off, could actually work.  My brother-in-law who has a severe allergy to dogs has never been able to spend more than an hour or two at our house.  Since we got our air purifier, he has been able to spend several hours at our house without any symptoms or discomfort.  I'm a believer!

Ok, I am a huge skeptic when it comes to TV products like this. I think they are for weak minded fools but....let me tell you....I am glad I purchased this. To start off with I am 43 years old. I weigh about 170 lbs. I am in decent physical shape. My right knee has been bothering me for about 3 months. It is a muscular/tendon/ligament problem (Not in my joint). I do not have problems walking or jogging, just getting up off my knees from squatting or kneeling. Now, with all that said, I have worn this thing for 4-5 days now and I can notice a positive difference. I don't know if it's all in my head or it is actually making a difference. I don't care. My knee is feeling better. Not completely healed, just a lot better.

I have also read some negative complaints about the fit. If you go to the 'Copper Fit' website there is a measuring guide. I have read that they run small in size and are tight. People....IT IS A COMPRESSION SLEEVE!!! It supposed to be tight!

This thing is only about $10. Why in the world wouldn't you try it....it's only $10!!!!!!

I have to admit that when I opened the box and saw this gadget, my first thought was it would be too complicated to set up and/or the sound was going to be a joke. I am happy to say that I was proved very wrong on both points. I have no idea how something this small can produce such great quality sound. Even when turned up to the maximum level, there is no distortion and it sounds crisp and clear and it is actually pretty loud. I am not saying that you can use it to provide the tunes for a party but I left it on my veranda, went inside to get a drink from the refrigerator and even with my iron storm door closed, I could hear it clearly. My son, who is a bit of a "sound snob" and has a Bose as well as several other high priced gadgets for music took one look at it and smirked. However, when he heard it a few days later, even he was amazed. As for setting it up, it took me less than a minute to have it paired and ready to go with my iPhone 6s plus (which is quite "choosy" about pairing). Though I love my tech stuff, I have relatively little patience for the setting up part which is partially due to the fact that most things come with a user manual the size of a small dictionary and the print is small enough that you need a magnifying glass to read it (I actually have a nice bluetooth headset that I gave up on). I was VERY impressed with the simplicity of the directions as they were simple, concise and easy to read as you can see in my photo. I thought that since I had done well with wings so far, I would ee if the camera feature worked and much to my amazement, it did! Really surprised me as I have had several other things that promised this feature would work with my iPhone, but so far not one of them actually has. As for phone calls, my daughter called me just as I started playing the first song with this and when I answered, it worked perfectly (she couldn't tell the difference from her end either). She later texted me and the alert was loud and clear. I know there are a ton of smart phones available but I really have no need for something that costs a small fortune and is complicated to set up. I have a small farm as well as a large breed dog rescue, so much of my time is spent outside working and I have no doubt that the screen would be shattered on a smartphone within a week. I have several bluetooth headsets and my phone is always in the back pocket of my jeans but when I get a call, it is a hassle to get them in/on my ears and answer the call. This is so much more practical for me as all I have to do is push one button and I can talk and work at the same time. The band is made of silicone and is tough yet comfortable and though the speaker part is a bit thick, it is very lightweight and doesn't feel at all awkward after you get used to it. I feel certain that it had to be made  that way to produce the quality/volume of sound that it emits. It charges up very quickly and stays charged at least 10-12 hours, depending on usage. I did receive this at a discount for an honest and unbiased review but I rarely write one this long or detailed unless I am super impressed with a product and this one is fantastic. Since I received this amazing little gadget, my bluetooth headsets have been left behind as I much prefer using this unless I am somewhere I need "privacy" to talk or listen to music.
