yupitsmabel says "canon rebel sx dslr is a great beginner camera" about Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS / 1000D Digital Camera with 18-55mm IS lens

yupitsmabel — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 02:01:00 GMT

The Canon EOS Rebel XS is the "little brother" of the Canon EOS Rebel XSi which means they are both almost the same camera, but the XSi has more to offer than the XS. Perhaps consider basing your buying decision on how serious you will be taking up digital SLR photography. If you firmly believe that you will take digital SLR photography very seriously in the long run and want a solid entry-level digital SLR camera, then the Canon XSi may be a better choice for you. If price is your main concern and you are only looking for Canon's bottom entry-level digital SLR model, then the current price of the Canon XS kit is quite worthy of a purchase consideration.

The auto focus is really quick. Th XS comes with "only" a 7 point auto focus system compared to the XSi 9 point, forgive me when I say there may be no need for another 2 points when the camera focusses so quick and so accurately. I have not gotten a soft image when shot with the auto focus operating. Now for those point and shoot cams...

yupitsmabel says "Small compact lean mean George foreman grill" about George Foreman GRP4 A Lean Mean Fat Grilling Machine

yupitsmabel — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 01:57:36 GMT

What I love about the George foreman lean mean grilling machine is the drip Tray removes grease and fat from cooking area for healthier eating and grease-draining capabilities that result in a better-cooked, healthier meal.

This is so easy to use. Just plus it in and wait a few min. then throw on steaks, burgers, chicken or whatever. Put a little seasonng on the food and close the lid.
It is very easy to clean- just wipe with a papertowel, food tastes great.
The first one of these I had (exact same model) lasted more than 5 years before the top section quit heating. The bottom still worked but it took longer to cook.

It does not clean with the wipe of a damp cloth; you really have use a sponge with soap. Little bits of food gets wedged between the bottom grill plate and its housing. The model w/the removable grill may be an enhancement. The only reason I haven't thrown it out is b/c is does grill rather well (and fast) and I've been able to clean well enough. But the crud builds with...

yupitsmabel says "Mr. Coffee 4-cup is perfect for families with 1 coffee drinker" about Mr. Coffee Mr. Coffee DRX5 4-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker

yupitsmabel — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 01:52:12 GMT

We all know that too much coffee is terrible for the body in several ways. So, instead of using the 12-cup coffee maker, we decided to go with a smaller one - to force me to drink less coffee. I love this product for a number of reasons.

Pros:
- Perfect size for a single coffee drinker.
- Timer is great. Every other 4-cup maker that I found were switch based without a timer setting. Timer settings are really helpful when you want to just get your coffee and go.
- Easy to clean. This product has a removeable filter cup for easy cleaning. Also, the auto-pause in brewing is helpful to both allow for quick removal and less spilling.

Cons:
- It takes a little longer to brew 4 cups with this maker as it does in a larger maker. This may simply be due to the size of the product.

It takes up little space and I also use it to boil water to make teas. Great for a college student and nifty enough to use. makes coffee just fine, but the weird thing is that the clock on the front loses about 1-2 minutes...

yupitsmabel says "The Dirt Devil bagless vacuum is small, compatible yet powerful" about Dirt Devil M110000 Bagless Upright Cyclonic Vacuum

yupitsmabel — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 01:46:57 GMT

The dirt devil vaccum is great for college students who are lazy and cannot be bothered to buy bags or really vacuum that much. It is easy to move around with a super long cord. It is small but it is extraordinarily powerful for it's size. It has quite a long life guarantee and I would definetly recommend it! It is really light to and maneuverable.

I know you have to replace filters for it, but i haven't had to do that yet! (three years). It's extremely cheap and you can buy it in target. It's probably the lowest priced vacuum since it's filters are quite expensive. Something I haven''t bought yet though.

Only con is that the filters do kind of get clogged down with hair a lot of the times and emptying out the tray is a hassle. Dirt, dust and hair flies everywhere if you're not careful. It sucks up both on hardwood floor and carpet though. It is very portable and compact so you can store it in the corner of your closet and whip it out whenever you need it. However, I would not...

yupitsmabel says "Stylish and slim" about Sony - T70 digital camera

yupitsmabel — Sat, 17 Nov 2007 02:25:53 GMT

Extremely easy to use, exicity new functions like "smile shutter". Clear, wide extra large touchscreen. Make a serious fashion statement with all the color choices.
A brief touch anywhere on screen zooms in on that part of the image for quick checking. Anti-blur function captures high definition images. enhanced functions for dynamic freeze-frame effects and "retro" mode recreates feel of an old-fashioned camera. Also, a paint function to draw on your pictures!
