Cheaply made.  Serration on jaws made action "notchy" - not smooth when cutting.

Real cheap construction on the 228 buttons. Because the buttons were sticking, I sent this back. Compared to my two ten year old Sportlines, it appears the company is not keeping the quality. I'll maybe try another Sportline model or try the Accusplits.

Not as good as older model but cheap. Bought to replace ten plus year old model, and this is not the same. Non stick surface is not holding up and it tends to have hot spots that create uneven cooking.

Not like the older ones... This does not feel as solid as the old ones, and seems slightly smaller.

Not like the old ones, and not really balanced when full of water.  it is a cheap plastic, Gone are the good old days of quality.

I've owned four Hoover WindTunnel vacuums in a row, and loved all but this one. This is noticeably cheaper than the previous three. Reviewers who praise the suction of this vacuum must be new to the WindTunnel series. It may be better than other vacuums, but its probably 30% less suction than earlier models. I will probably give this away to Goodwill and buy something else.

Pros: Manual valve to switch from floor to wand may appeal to some. For others, its probably a con.

Cons: Less suction than earlier models. Pivoting dusting tool does not stay on, has wide coverage and therefore limited suction.
Power cord is thinner with less insulation, partner damaged it during first 15 minutes of use. Suction during floor vacuuming (bare wood or carpet) is limited. Wand suction is adequate, but uninspiring. Vacuum cleaner is heavier than previous models and has no convenient way to carry it up and down stairs. No automatic power cord retraction that previous models had. Shorter vacuum hose won't reach as far. Dim and useless headlight. Bracket that holds pivoting dusting tool is unusable (does not hold the dusting tool firmly - dusting tool falls out just by normal tilting of the handle to vacuum a carpet)

Over the past ~1.5 years I've purchased 7 of these Karter Scientific 208U2 test tube racks from the same seller.  The first 6 were exactly as illustrated in the listing photo.  The one I just received turns out to be a new version of this rack.  Unfortunately, this new version is smaller and shorter overall, and 17% lighter in weight.  The rack's shelves are thinner, shorter, and narrower with their end cross-bracing removed and the spacing between the holes decreased.  Structural integrity has been sacrificed; the rack is now incredibly flimsy and to add insult to injury I paid $0.27 more for this degraded version.

I've owned about 5 Rival 300's in the past 8 years (I replace frequently). I bought the 310 and was greatly disappointed by it's quality. It's a cheaply made version of the 300 with a new sensor. I had 2 MAJOR issues that made me return this mouse. 1) Pressing firmly on the left mouse button created an awkward crunching sensation that felt like the button extended further than where it was supposed to end. This wasn't me slamming the button, it was just a firm press to shoot in a FPS asap. 2) The right side grip is set too low to the surface area and is cheaply glued on. After about 40 gaming hours of use, the right side grip started to clip/drag on my mousepad when recentering my mouse on the pad. If the mouse was tilted at any small degree while recentering it would clip. I pulled it off easily and it was glued on with like 5 little dabs spread out - no wonder it came off and started clipping so easily. Absolutely unacceptable for any FPS player with low sens that has to pick their mouse up frequently and with accuracy. Overall and cheaply made rework of the 300 with poor design. Come on SteelSeries! Loyal consumer and quickly losing faith in your quality of brand.

I like iGaging from the past but this is the cheapest model I have found. The piston is very loose and doesn't appear to be very repeatable. The only positive is the data cable connector but that's it. I returned this for a better model.

Built with much lower quality than the previous model it replaced. Still works fine just cheaper design than older one. Don't think this one will last as long.

This is my third Sony MP3 walkman. I love them, they are simple and sound quality is top notch.

Unfortunately, the design seems to be devolving with this new model. I owned the model from 2 years ago (NWZ-S745) and it was smaller and more stylish than this one. The case was very thin, made of metal and had nice sharp edges. This new design has reverted back to being made entirely of plastic and has increased in size. It feels cheap.

The plastic that protects the screen (it used ot be glass) is very easy to scratch. After only a week of sliding in and out of pockets, my player already has permanent marks.

The previous version of this was better made, but the new one is garbage.

This model of the 1810 8 port version, the version 2 model, has been drastically reduced in case quality.  I have been in IT for almost two decades, much of it with HP switching technology.  I have ALWAYS relied on HP to deliver a quality product in a well built case.  This model, while working properly, is very cheaply built.  We use many 8 port switches in conference rooms and other areas where we need a few more ports than are wired to the room.

The previous model was built with a metal case, proper logos, and exuded all of that HP quality that I have come to expect from HP.  This new models case is so cheap it feels like a $5 item from the China bin.  The HP name has been eliminated from case with the exception of one sticker on the front panel and the information sticker on the bottom of the unit.  The push button to cycle through speed, duplex and activity of the front LEDs for each port has been eliminated.  I actually used this feature quite a bit to determine sync problems with laptops of visiting executives.  Shame on HP for eliminating it and shame on me not noticing it before buying several of this model.

Make no mistake friends, this is no longer even a small business quality item.  It is now firmly in the consumer/home, throw away market.  It deserves no place in a corporate environment, if it will be seen by anyone.  It will tell everyone who looks at it that it is a cheap product.  I have always paid a little more for HP items because of their quality build.  It is sad to see such cost cutting in what was once an assumed quality when you bough "HP".

I had the predecessor to this unit which was much sturdier but still broke.  This unit isn't as well made, but I just won't put a heavy duty hose in it.  The guide that brings the hose in actually doesn't do anything.  My older version had a screw operation that would guide the hose left to right.  The older one was more expensive though.

The older model was better.  Belt clip does not stay and it falls off waist.  The one with the sewn belt loops is much better.  For the price of this, i don't feel bad throwing out.

For years, I used and loved an older KitchenAid stand mixer.  When I recently moved, this KSM25 was one of my first purchases for my kitchen, but I have been very disappointed in this particular model.  I've been using this model for 3 months now.  The bowl cantilevers from the arm of the mixer instead of sitting on its bottom, and you must constantly be on guard to prevent it from tipping over.  The bowl capacity seems to be somewhat smaller than previous models (I could not find a volume measurement, but recipes that I used to make easily now seem to overflow.)  This model is OK, but not great.
