I bought a SECOND one a month later
by johns1947New Member
Pros: I would give it 5 stars for 'value'.
Cons: No auto-power switch, no 10 foot straight cord.
The wife got a ticket in April. I haven't had a ticket in years. They're putting in red light cameras and this motivated me to do some research. In an effort to raise additional money, many municipalities are reverting to 'other forms of tax'. I bought ...

Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM for NIKON AF
When wide matters
by seacow
Pros:
Cons:
When I first got a digital SLR, my brother gave me some great advice. He told me to wait a few months before buying any new lenses. At the time, I had a Sigma 28-90 and a Nikkor 35-135. Those should be enough for a while. Eventually, I’d figure ...

Sanus Large Universal Flat-Panel Mount - PLA50B-01
Add some style to any room in your house!
by rgathright
Pros: Wide mounting frame ensures solid stud anchoring.
Cons: Seemingly high cost
Tucked in the corner of my eleven year old house is a lonely 12’x16’ room which acts as my office. The walls were plain white and the carpet was a tightly woven, white, stainmaster that has seen better days. I wanted to turn the room into ...

Gumball Frame
Gumball Machine Frame....Great Novelty Item!
by hvarmit
Pros:

hangs on the wall and takes up little room; holds 13 oz of gumballs


Cons: it is entirely of plastic, if that is a "con"
I've always wanted a gumball machine, but I have no idea what I'd do with it. I chew gumballs on occasion, and the "Old Tyme" gumball machines were such a novelty and I thought since I had a child, I could always use her as an excuse to buy one. I ...

LG CHOCOLATE VX8500 Cellular Phone
The LG Chocolate is a Girl's Best Friend
by raquelp2New Member
Pros:

Attractive design, long lasting, easy to use


Cons:

Screen can get dirty/scratched


I am not going to lie to you, the ONLY reason I picked the LG VX8500 Chocolate phone in the first place was simply because I liked the way it looked-I did no research on it, I didn't know anything about what it's capabilities were, I simply thought it ...

Pros:
Cons:
The phone for my land line wouldn’t be a big deal except that cell phones don’t like to work in my house. I do spend a lot of time in my room either watching television or writing reviews. On the rare occasions where I need to buy a phone, ...

Not enough people know the greatness of this product!

Sony BRAVIA KDL-52W3000 52 in. LCD TV
Sony's Next Venture Into LCD... Bravia 1080 52" A NO-SPIN REVIEW
by nick1326
Pros: Crisp, bright and perfectly sized! 52" of excellent Video priced well and cheapening

Cons: Lacks settings flexiblity to make it look great on ALL sources. Terrible Sound

I'm going to do my absolute best to keep this review fair and balanced- not be a tyrade by an upset consumer, nor an over-flowery Ra-Ra hype-story... Sony's current Bravia LCD panel is a noticable improvement over prior generations, but still has a ways ...

Sakar 57690 Digital Camera
Is It Really 4 Mega Pixels? I don't Think So.
by sixhotpeppers
Pros: Low price, decent packaging, software, video function, and instruction manual.
Cons: Terrible pictures, not worth it!!!
I recently purchased this Sakar 57690 Digital Camera from Wal-Mart for $40. I feel it was not worth it. My 8 year old son wanted a digital camera for his birthday and this seemed to be the best deal for a digital camera that offered at least 4 mega ...

Energizer Rechargeable AA NiMH Batteries (NH15BP-8) Battery
Great rechargeable, long lasting battery
by edellks
Pros: Very affordable NiMH battery with lots of capacity. They're not slightly oversized like some competitiors.
Cons: These aren't the low-discharge type.
I have about 25 of these batteries, and they are all holding up very well. Some are 6 months old, some are 2 years old. They have always been used in automatic chargers, and even Energizer's 15-minute fast charger when I'm in the car going between a ...

Pros: Very user freindly. It is also a very inexpensive spotting scope.
Cons: The lenght is rediculous and makes carrying the unit very awekward and annoying.
I got this Bushnell Spotting scope as a gift a couple of years ago. My one and only use for it is pre-season scouting for deer and elk ( although it could be used for a lot of other things). I love using this scope, everything I need to do from zoom to ...

LG Shine KE970 Cellular Phone

Pros: Sleek stylish and durable. The best phone I have ever had.
Cons: tiny keypad, and smudges on the screen.
I, for one, am sick of cheap plastic being molded over some computer chip and being passed off as a cell phone. I love living an active lifestyle, so I am hard on phones. My older phone broke while I was rock climbing, though not unusual for a large fall ...
