blueworld says "Compact and easy to use." about Brother FAX-575 Plain Paper Thermal Fax

blueworld — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:18:25 GMT

I purchased this plain paper fax machine because it was compact and cheap. It is great for a small office or any room where there is limited space. It uses a thermal transfer ribbon cartridge instead of an ink cartridge. Because it uses a ribbon cartridge, Brother is able to keep the manufacturing costs low. The ribbon cartridge is easy to replace and will print up to 150 pages.

Despite its small size, this fax machine has all the features of a larger machine. It comes with a 10 page auto document feeder. It has 512 KB of memory, so it can save faxes when it runs out of paper. It is also a copier so it can be used to make black-and-white copies. In addition, there is a built-in handset for making and receiving phone calls. It also has the ability to automatically dial stored numbers, and can scan a fax once and transmit it to multiple people.

This is a small, simple and reliable fax machine that is easy for anyone to setup and use.

ecd1974 says "Can't Even Make An Appointment" about Orkin

ecd1974 — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 17:20:41 GMT

I filled out their online form to set up an appointment for a termite inspection. Once I did that, I was shown that "An Orkin representative will contact you shortly". I never got a call so I called Orkin to find out why. I received a canned apology and was told my request would be forwarded to a local office and I'd be contacted by someone from that office. I never received a call and it is now 2 weeks later. When I am trying to get a contractor or anyone to do work for me, they are automatically fired in the initial stages if they can't return calls or do something when promised. This is indicative of the quality of work I'd receive (or lack of quality) if I hired them. Orkin cannot even make an appointment for me so I guess they do not need new business and must be doing well enough to blow off new customers.

sissbarb says "Works well for small shredding jobs." about ID Armor Shredder, ID-S60B

sissbarb — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:45:18 GMT

I have used this shredder for a little more than a year with no problems. That is the longest one has lasted for me. It will accept six sheets each time. That is enough for my home office use. I have been very careful to stay under the maximum capacity in using it; because feeding too many sheets has ruined the motors on several I've owned in the past. It does have a reverse function that is supposed to help with clearing jamming, but never having been forced to use it I can't report how well this works. I've found it of little help in clearing jamming on others I've had It was very inexpensive and has been a real bargain for me. However, it would not have the capacity for a large office that would find six sheets at a time too time consuming. Also it does not do cross shredding; so it would not provide the safety for some places that require high security functions. It can be used only to shred paper; so a company with lots of plastic materials that required disposal...

sissbarb says "Good for small office copying, printing, and faxing." about HP Officejet 6310 All-in-One

sissbarb — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:35:16 GMT

I have had it two years and like everything about it except for the fact that it is prone to frequent paper jam. If the paper is not placed in it absolutely right a jam occurs. Also you must be very sure to separate inserted sheets, so they don’t stick together causing a jam. When this happens, it is very hard to remove the offending paper without a danger of damaging the printer. Other wise it is very dependable and has given very good service, and I’ve learned through trial and error how to prevent them. The printing is clear in both black and color. It scans quickly and produces good, clear copies. Photo prints are very good also. The fax on it works well, has auto answering, and speed dial. It provides all the functions that are needed by my home office, and I use it several times everyday. It has not required service. I do wish that the ink cartridges were less expensive and lasted longer. However, this seems to be true of every printer I’ve ever owned, and I’ve not found a...

Lisa746 says "I can't work without it!!!!" about Post-it Pop-up Note Dispenser

Lisa746 — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 01:23:33 GMT

At first I hesitated to purchase this product, because the dispenser I wanted was kind of pricey, and the refills cost more than regular post-it pads. I found it on sale, and have never regretted the purchase. It has a top that is clear so you can interchange the decorative layer, or even use a photo. It is heavy enough to use as a paper weight. It is so incredibly handy having your post-it notes pop up for your next use. I love it. When it runs out I find myself searching and searching for something to write on.

Nean says "quick" about Office Snax Campbells Microwaveable Soup At Hand, Chicken Mini Noodle, 8 Per Box Food & Beverage

Nean — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:36:57 GMT

I like to take campbells soup. They are quick and easy to store. I think they should be made in a variet of more flavors and have a little more taste to them. they taste very bland. Do not get me wrong, I enjoy them. they are low in calories and fat. It is not a taste thatmy entire family would love. I think you should make more varieties. Campbells has been making great products for years. I gre up on Cambpells soup. I want it to be a long tradition for my family. Keep making great products.

megatans says "Avery filing labels offers a variety of options for filing needs" about Avery Filing Labels

megatans — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:44:12 GMT

Avery filing labels offers a variety of products for many different industries. They offer products ranging from generic white labels to preprinted labels for specific industries. They offer many different specialized products for the medical profession. In today's world there a so many companies providing only generic products that in turn cause more work for employees. Which also cost employers more man hours and wasted time.

Since avery offers specialized products for our industry, I presented them to our office products purchaser. I showed them how easy these products were to use and convinced them that we should make a purchase and give them a try.

We found that we saved both time and money using these products and it improved our ability to make sure everyone was following the same categories when filing. By doing this, we saved man hours in searching for files by different categories and searching for files in which other employees filed by first name rather than last...

GarfieldCollector says "this is one great little printer" about Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330

GarfieldCollector — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 17:01:43 GMT

I have this printer but in a different color, the base is black with the gray tone top area. The label is excellent without ever having a problem with it, how many products can you say that about? It is also both Mac & Windows compatible, that is the reason that I bought it so that no matter what computer I hooked it up to "it would just work". I don't have the time or interest in messing around with equipment to get it to work, this unit always prints quickly when needed and doesn't skip a beat!!!

The only drawback is that it is not that attractive looking, the Brother products do look much better in appearance but that is not a deciding factor for everything in life, usually practicality and functionality is much more important.

TheBard says "Another winner from Dymo!" about Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330

TheBard — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 16:08:14 GMT

Bottom-Line: Over all, my users are very pleased with the performance of the Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330; the label printer works, and works well.

Like the Dymo LabelWriter EL60 it replaces, the Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330 is a small printer shaped like a half circle with a semi clear window in the front to view labels as they are printer. On the front of the printer is a horizontal slot from which labels are "ejected" once printed. Front panel controls are limited to one: the advance label button, used in case the label become jammed, or the printer will not print, but you need to advance the label. Also on the front of the Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330 is a small oval yellow light indicating that the unit is powered on. On the back there is rocker switch for power, and two connections for serial and USB.

The primary differences between the Dymo LabelWriter Turbo 330 and Dymo LabelWriter EL60 is the dpi resolution (203 vs. 300); label printing speed (8 vs. 32 per minute); expanded...

TheBard says "Not a Bad Little Smudge-Free Label Printer" about Dymo LabelWriter EL60

TheBard — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 15:45:00 GMT

Bottom-Line: If you are looking for a low cost, low maintenance, reliable label printer with above average output, look no further then the Dymo LabelWriter EL60.

In our current office environment, most users do not have desktop printers; that is by design. They are connected instead to series of networked black & white and color printers. But that poses its own set of problems since a fair majority of people have a need to mail vendors on a fairly consistent basis, and prefer printed mailing labels to do so. Printing labels via the network printers is problematic for obvious reasons. My desktop is sans a local printer as well and I have a pressing need to print labels to attach to workstations, network printers, servers, and other items, so I needed a label printer as well. Enter the Dymo LabelWriter EL60.

The Dymo LabelWriter EL60 is a small printer shaped like a half circle with a semi clear window in the front to view labels as they are printer. On the front of the printer...

dmdifalco says "Royal Cross Cut Shreds Papers Beyond Recognition!" about Royal Vertical Feed Cross Cut Paper Shredder

dmdifalco — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 02:03:40 GMT

When my husband and I were shopping around for a good paper shredder, identity theft was the biggest subject on most news stations. We were drawn to Royals Cross-Cut because it shreds the papers in both directions leaving nothing readable or traceable. At the time, it was the most expensive shredder that we were looking at but felt that the safety features were well worth the extra investment. We've had ours for a number of years and it still works like new. What I also found to be a bonus feature is that you can shred up to 10 copies of standard 8 x 10 paper at one time. If you invest in an off brand or inexpensive model than you are going to end up paying more in the long run because the device will not last long. Also other brands only have the single direction cutters which don't destroy what you are putting into them so they defeat the purpose. At the time we purchased ours it was close to $100.00 and I honestly don't know what one runs now. As with every other appliance...I...

juststardust says "Sharpie Ultra-Fine marks permanently, takes up less space." about Sharpie ultra fine marker

juststardust — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 21:16:52 GMT

I tried the Sharpie Ultra-Fine marker a few years ago, when working on a filing cabinet organization project at work. I need something to permanently mark folder tabs, but a thin line to write with. Not only did it do the job, but it has become a favorite of mine for decorating book covers, writing in scrapbooks, and labeling photos, files, and even recipe cards. I've also found it to be very reliable, as in using it, I've left the lid off for as long as 15 minutes before, and worried that I'd let it dry out; but no, it keeps on writing like new. I've seen comments that it dries out if the user forgets to replace the cap after use... obviously, it may do this if it's altogether forgotten for, say, days or weeks, perhaps. But as I said, it's reliable for at least a quarter hour while capless and not being used. The assortment of available colors is also impressive - this makes using it on scrapbooking, or any craft or art project, ideal. Excellent product!

Kimber4231 says "ADP - Shakey Start" about ADP

Kimber4231 — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 15:27:18 GMT

We've been with ADP TotalSource for about 6 months. Our benefits experience was so bad, we were back into a corner when we receive a 48% health insurance increase. First of all there is a disconnect between what your told and what you actually get. Their pricing is HIGH, and contracts are very difficult to understand, you really don't know how to determine what you're paying for. We were told things during the sales presentation that were later found out to be untrue, even during the intial implemetation phase. It was among the poorest implementations I've been through. Numerous errors, tons of follow-up on our end, to the point my HR team was questioning 'why do we need them, there creating more work for us'. Our joke around the office that ADP TotalSource was actually ADP NoSource. As HR Director, I spend 80% of my time complaining to the higher-up about service issues and trying to convince my HR team that this was a good decesion, even though in my gut I felt I had made a mistake.

Sjperry1985 says "Wonderful, smooth, enhancing!" about Pilot G2 Pen

Sjperry1985 — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 15:13:27 GMT

Okay, it's hard to please me, I will admit that. I am picky about a lot of things, not to mention pens. I don't like pens that write to easy, don't like the big bulky ones or the small, tiny ones. I don't like a blue pen with black ink or vice versa. I know, it's silly, but it's me. I have great writing style and love to take pride in it. I create labels, memos, letters, and so on at work and get compliments all the time on my handwriting.

So, in looking for a good pen that compliments my ability, I across the Pilot G-2 pens. Oh my gosh, I LOVE THEM! I love them so much I usually run out of ink in 2 weeks. I know, a lot of writing, right! Well, I love the colors that the pens come in. The feel is great and they are affordable! I usually purchase mine in bulks since I use them so much! I love using the blue ones the most then black comes next. I love how the color of the pen and cushion match the ink! It is the best pen, EVER! It has such a smooth writing form that makes it easy to enhance...

redzane says "As in previous reviews, too bad one star is the lowest rating!" about ADP

redzane — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:51:00 GMT

I am a Dentist who has been using ADP for several years off and on. I do my payroll online and find that the only time things go awry is when they get involved. The latest issue arose when ADP tried to correct a mistake in my employees' 401k which they infact caused. I had called several times to correct the mistake and each time I was told the problem was corrected. Needless to say it wasn't. Finally the deductions were being made and the staff and I were all happy. That was until I got a letter from ADP saying that the deductions weren't being funded! After several hours of investigation, I found that what had happended is that due to a change in the management of the fund, we were now 'changing platforms'. It appears that one branch of ADP ceased the withdrawl of funds due to the change but the other branch never reinstated them. Well that was finally fixed and the sum was deducted from my bank and supposedly deposited in my employees 401k accounts. Turns out that...

LisaCarey says "Makes printing glossy photos picture perfect - almost " about Staples Photo Supreme Paper 4" X 6" High Gloss 100

LisaCarey — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 02:39:24 GMT

It's not always necessary to purchase name brand products to get good quality and Staples store brand photo paper Staples Photo Supreme Paper 4" X 6" High Gloss proves this to be true.

What I like about Staples Photo Supreme Paper 4" X 6" High Gloss:

just the right size especially for scrapbooking
the glossy tone is not too much and not too slick
works well with all types of inkjet printers
doesn't spread ink but dries quickly
quite often is buy one get one free in the store or add one for a .01
works for business prints, scrapbooking and photos for frames
100 sheets in a pack

What I don't like about Staples Photo Supreme Paper 4" X 6" High Gloss

this photo paper is meant to be glossy, but sometimes I don't want a glossy finish but I have 100 of these in a pack making me feel guilty if I use something else (course this isn't the products fault) but maybe a 50 pack for less is a better option for most people

Staples Photo Supreme Paper 4" X 6" High Gloss makes it easy...

TheBard says "A Single Roll Has Endless Possibilities" about 3M Scotch Magic Tape

TheBard — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 19:03:32 GMT

Bottom-Line: A roll of 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape is several tools in one lightweight package.

Transparent Tape, it is one of the household tools you never appreciate until you don't have it around, which is why we keep plenty of 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape in the home office.

Why 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape? Because we have tried the rest and found them lacking; 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape is the only take that adhere correctly to almost any surface I apply it to; the store branded transparent tape has been less than stellar in this most important arena.

When you say transparent tape the holidays and wrapping presents come most readily to mind, but 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape can be and is used for so much more. As a binding tool for children's project of all description the tape is invaluable. Need to clean pet hair off your favorite wool jacket in a pinch, reach for 3M Scotch Magic Transparent Tape. Need to mail a package; mend a sheet of paper,...

LisaCarey says "Gets my Christmas wrapping done like magic " about 3M Scotch Magic Tape

LisaCarey — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 16:12:36 GMT

"Sticky tape, sticky tape!" Dora the Explorer calls quickly for sticky tape to help her fix something for her friend Boots. That's me when it comes to 3M Scotch Magic Tape. There are very few things I purchase in "bulk" but this is one of them. Right around the holiday season when 3M Scotch Magic Tape comes out in multi packs of 3 (that is when I normally notice them) I have to buy one, if not two.

Where do I use 3M Scotch Magic Tape? I think a better question is where don't I use 3M Scotch Magic Tape? There is one on my desk, one on my husband's desk, one in the kitchen and one with the wrapping paper in my closet. That is unless one of the children got a hold of one of the rolls of this magic tape and decided to play out the sticky tape episode of Dora the Explorer. And even if she did 3M Scotch Magic Tape is inexpensive enough that I won't scream at the price when I go purchase more, but it is also thick enough and non damaging enough that I am able to quickly and...

Katrena says "Ross All-Purpose White Glue Works as Well as Name Brand" about Ross All-Purpose White Glue

Katrena — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 06:20:38 GMT

I decided to try Ross All-Purpose White Glue one day because I noticed they were running a sale. This glue is normally two for $1.00 at Dollar General near my house.

What I like about Ross All-Purpose White Glue:

It's inexpensive.
It's a handy size.
It dries clear.
It's advertised as non-toxic (but we didn't test this out!)
It dries pretty quickly.

How to Improve Ross All-Purpose White Glue:

As with any white school glue, this can dry out if the lid is left unscrewed. I would love to see some sort of top that somehow closes itself after a certain period of time of not being used. But that would probably really drive up the price, so I'll stick with the cheap version!
When it gets low, it takes a long time for the glue to get to the tip.

My Viewpoint:

I was pleasantly surprised to see that this glue works as well as the name brand and it normally sells for 50 cents each. It is a convenient size and does tend to dry quickly and clear. I'll give it a definite thumbs up!
