gr8full says "So far we like it" about Toshiba Toshiba L455-S5975

gr8full — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 05:26:13 GMT

We bought this laptop. A Toshiba L-455-S5975 about a month ago. So far so good. There are some things we don't like. The volume knob turns and turns, doesn't stop. The speakers sound is really bad and it only has a 2 1/2 hour battery life. So far it is working well. We love that on anything we have connected to it, that we don't need to load software. It does it for you. Its a little heavy but that's ok. The only other thing is we wish that the headphone, memory card reader and volume knob was on the side. When you have it in your lap these get in your way if you have something plugged into one of them. We have a wireless headphone but don't use it much with this because the plug is in the front. Other than that we are happy with it so far.

We wrote a lot of cons on this but for the price its ok. For $350 we can live with the cons.

gr8full says "Had one month and it stopped working" about Logitech V220 Optical Wireless Notebook Mouse

gr8full — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 05:00:50 GMT

I bought this no more than a month ago. It was working fine. I turned my computer off, came back about a hour later, turn on the laptop and the mouse will not work. I pressed reset, put a new battery in and nothing. The light on top comes on for a little bit but thats it. I really liked it but don't think I want another one. Will be taking this back tomorrow.

Did not care for these at all. Tried once and did not last. So I went back to what I know that works well.

gr8full says "Nice Christian book and movie" about Love Finds a Home

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:24:09 GMT

If your looking for something that doesn't have killing, cuse words and things like that in it, this is it. We just watch the series they made from here books on tv and it was great not to have all that in it.

gr8full says "Does what I want it to do" about Nintendo Wii Fit

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:15:42 GMT

We like it and use it. I am not able to play games that have very much movement because of vertigo so this works well for me.

gr8full says "Pretty happy with service" about Dish network

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:12:00 GMT

We are pretty happy with the service. There has been times lately though it has skipped a lot on programs we recorded with the DVR. I like that we can record 100 hours of shows. We just received a smart card in the mail to update it and it wasn't hard to do. We do lose the signal at times but right now we are having bad storms going through and we haven't lost the signal yet. So we are very happy with that.

gr8full says "We love this phone" about GE - 2.4 GHz Model 21028GE3-A

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 14:05:16 GMT

We have own this phone since it came out. Which was many years ago. We love it. In fact when the batteries started going out. I found a phone set that had the same batteries and we bought it. The new phones are still in the box. What we love the most about this phone is the Do Not Disturband the speaker phone. We hope that it keeps working. I have tried other phones and always take them back. Usually the speaker is not clear like this one. The do not disturb is great for when you want to sleep late on weekends or watching TV. People can still leave their message, you don't hear it or the ringing of the phone.

gr8full says "Cleans well" about Whirlpool DU84O0WGQ2 Dishwasher

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:49:46 GMT

Works well. Cleans dishes great, even when I overload it. The only thing I have noticed is its a little noisy.

gr8full says "Works ok" about Whirlpool EXT20PKXTN00

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:43:55 GMT

It cools and freezes well. Its starting to make some very weird sounds. At night you hear a big knock or bang come from it. It seems that the compressor is running a lot to me. The freezer with the ice dispenser is a to small for me.

gr8full says "Nice Vacum" about Dirt Devil Extreme Quick Vac Vacuum

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:33:25 GMT

I like it but it does have some disadvantages. The hose for the attachments on it is to short. It doesn't steer well and is pretty noisy.

gr8full says "Nice Washer" about Frigidaire Heavy Duty Washer

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:24:17 GMT

This washer does what it says. The only thing I don't care for is the safety latch on the door. It locks down and you can not open it until it completely stops.

gr8full says "Works well" about Kenmore 80 Series Washing Machine

gr8full — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 13:17:25 GMT

Works well. Even though it says Super Capacity Plus, if you put to many jeans or anything heavy in it a one time, it will not dry them. Don't put to many heavy clothes in it at one time and it dries just fine.

gr8full says "Its working well so far" about Brother FAX-575 Plain Paper Thermal Fax

gr8full — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 15:30:56 GMT

Brother FAX-575 Plain Paper Thermal Fax. Every now and then we needed to fax something. We came across this one and bought it. The so called fax that came with the printer, with the computer, does not work well and is a pain to use. So we decided to get a fax machine. Price wise it was ok but I think for just faxing the price could be lower. Yes, it does copy and has a phone but not many people use a corded phone any more. So far every fax has gone through. We haven't used it enough to be in need of buying the print cartridge, which is pretty high. For 25 more we could buy the machine again. So we will not be using this to make copies much. We don't use it a lot so we unhook it from the phone line when not in use.

gr8full says "working well so far model BFM588DQ-81 " about Health O Meter BFM588DQ-81 Bathroom Scale

gr8full — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 14:54:29 GMT

My roommate and I use this. We bought this about two months or so ago. We like that you can save entries but there are not enough. With the way electronics are today, they need to have it to where we can put more entries in it. You can have up to 4 people saving their info. You put in age, height, date and etc. They only thing I did notice when I put the info in was that the buttons would catch on the edge. I had to use my fingernail to pop it back out each time. We figure the others would be the same so we didn't take it back. So far it is working well.

Calculates body fat and hydration %, Displays weight and change in weight for up to 4 users, One-button SAVE function stores up to 19 entries per user, Accurately measures weight up to 375 lbs in 0.2 lb increments, FDA approved BIA (bioelectrical impedance analysis) measures body fat by passing tiny electrical impulses through the body.

gr8full says "works well, could be smaller" about StunMaster Stun Baton 800,000 volts - StunMaster Stun Baton 800,000 volts

gr8full — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:06:08 GMT

I recently bought a Stun master Stun Baton 800,000 volts from them. The first one I received did look like it had been used before. With scratches on it and a worn spot on the holster. So I emailed them and they responded fast. It was a weekend and they are closed on weekends. They wrote me back and said they would send another one out to me and apologized a lot. They even called to apologized and to say the other was mailed by UPS.

The only thing I don't like is they are made in china and they do look cheap. The second one we got looks the same, except for the holster it was ok. As long as it works well, I guess it will have to do. Although I would rather have something made in the USA. I also wish it was a little smaller, slender wise.

It does work because I accidentally had my hand the other day about an inch behind the metal part of the baton, on the plastic part and got a good jolt. I will not do that again. Just keep your hand back on the main part (hand grip). Hopefully, I will never...

gr8full says "have 2, one giving trouble" about Acer AL1916W Monitor

gr8full — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 16:07:44 GMT

We bought 2 of these a while back because they had a great deal on them. One is already giving us trouble. The button to turn it on has already stopped working for us. If you keep working with it you can eventually get it to come on. After 5 to 10 minutes and about the time you are ready to throw it in the trash. We don't use these that much so for it to do this already isn't right. I don't think I could recommend this to someone because of this. We are hoping this one doesn't start to give us problems with that.

Also on the bad one, the plug to hook it to power is in a bad place. It pushes sideways on the connector on the back of the monitor. Thats what I thought we would have trouble with first. The one we use now is a little different. They apparently changed that and have it where its not that way any more. I hope they also put a better on/off button in this one

gr8full says "Works well" about Benadryl Allergy Medicine

We use this when we get a rash, when we get bit by something or get a bee sting. It works pretty well....
