lixion says "Safe product that give me a peace of mind!" about Seventh Generation Free & Clear Laundry Powder

lixion — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 23:41:09 GMT

Ever since I started using this brand, I've changed most of my other cleaning products to this brand, if not, will be some other brands as environmentally-friendly as this. This product makes me feel safe when I use it on all my family's clothes and feel safe even when I hang-dry my clothes indoor, as it does not use petroleum products. I've never buy another box of national brand of detergent since I started using 7th generation. I may not clean as effective since I only use cold water. So I compensate my washing a longer cycle in my front loading machine. It is actually quite easy to find in where I live, but just difficult to find it at bargain prices. I get them from Kroger or Wholefood. Publix also carry the liquid version now....

lixion says "small and easy to carry around" about Sony - T9 Digital Camera

The image quality is great, as in all sony that I have. I like it that it is small and easy to carry around and can take video as well. That way, I dont have to tote two applicances with me when we are sight seeing. The only thing I dont like about this camera is the special battery it uses. I used to have another sony which uses AA batteries and I'd loved the convenience of easily finding a battery replacement when we are in a rush. But now, we have to find the charger and charge it in advance. Well, I guess that the price to pay for having a compact camera....

lixion says "Good suction and quite easy to use" about Dyson Vacuum - Upright All Floors Bagless Cyclonic Vacuum

lixion — Tue, 11 Dec 2007 23:15:40 GMT

At first, I find this vacuum difficult to use, especially when try to detach and attach the hose back to the upright. Now that I've get used to it, it is alright but I still find it very inconvenient to do a fast vacuum as alot of places I would need to use the hose and attachments, and when I need to use them, I have to uncoil the whole length of electrical code or, even when I do not need to use the whole length of it. Then when I need to keep it, I'll have to coil them back which is a hassle as I sometimes just want to use the hose or attachment for a small job which I bring the vacuum cleaner right next to the job, so I didn't have to uncoil the cords. But using the hose means I cords will have to be messed up, which is quite frustrating. Other than that, if you push clean floors and carpets mostly, this vacuum is good. It sucks up most things and things that we can't see. After use, I'd see the canister full of powdery dust, which my previous vacuum cleaner is not able to pick up on,......

lixion says "Sturdy Designer decor, Contemporary furnishings at Great price!" about IKEA

lixion — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 17:42:03 GMT

IKEA furniture is known to be sturdy and durable. I like them because they look modern but without the price tag of designer furniture. Their products are all fairly priced as they are designed with minimal packaging and ready to be assembled, so they can pass the cost of shipping bulky furnitures to the customers, that is us. And we can save on the delivery charge that most furnitures from other major furniture stores would require, since we are able to transport the disassembled furniture home and assemble them ourselves.

IKEA also cater to the ways some of you prefer, pre-assembled furniture. They will assemble your furniture for you in the store and deliver it for you if you prefer it that way.

lixion says "You can't sleep without it!" about Simmons BeautyRest Pillowtop Mattress

lixion — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 17:11:04 GMT

We have been using this mattress for seven years and it has been as firm as the first day. The only problem is that, it is very heavy and difficult during a move. Yet we have moved 4 times with it, and we still like to keep it for as long as we can. It is plush with the pillow-top, yet firm for most people.

My husband have back problem so he thinks the bed is a little soft for him at times. So he will rotate on sleeping on the far left and the middle portion of the bed. I think he is getting too heavy for the springs. He is 170 pounds. I am small-framed and weighed only slightly less than 100 pounds....
