La Crosse Technology WS-7014CH-IT Wireless Weather StationReviewsLacrosse tec has a great product this is second one for me easy to set works in seconds .... New alkaline batteries, main unit operated and read from remote sensor for about 5 days, then noticed the display was 'garbled', not all segments of the led images would lite up for any of the features, date/time/temp/forecast. Removed batteries for 1 hours and re-installed new (different) batteries.. no change. No response from mfr for 72 hours, so I am returning for refund via Amazon since I've only had the unit for a little over one week. I'm not up to dealing with something that has issues like this right out of the box. Obviously you can look out the window and see whats going on outside. Yet with our new wireless weather station we are able to verify the temperature inside and out. It tells the Humidity and best of all the weather forecast will indicate the trends of the weather approaching. Information point, does not work with older LaCrosse outdoor units but works with its (included) own. Working with older units is handy if you have already deployed older units and just want to piggy-back another indoor unit on them. The time & Weather station is very accurate and sleek looking. Would recommend it to a friend. Average Rating:![]() |

Aspiring meteorologists and will be thrilled with this La Crosse Technology wireless weather station. Ideal for darkrooms, greenhouses, or other environments that require a consistent temperature reading, the WS-7014CH records indoor temperature, humidity, and remote temperature as measured by the included TX29U-IT remote sensor... |

JanSport Classic SuperBreak BackpackReviewsThe shipping was on time & the quality of JanSport never seems to fail me! I'm finally ready for school. I bought this backpack for my daughter for kindergarten. I was concerned it might be too big for her because she is petite and only five. However, the adjustable straps make it fit her perfectly. I really like that the bag itself is very lightweight but can hold lots of stuff. She should be able to use it for many many years to come. Love the bag!It is everything I hoped for and as advertised. Received it promptly too! This backpack is cute, but it is not really a good purchase. I have washed it a few times, and now the inside of the fabric has started to peel away. Also, it doesn't hold any shape, so it kind of hangs down instead of staying up on your back. The fabric is thin and the quality is so-so. If I had to do it over again, I would buy something with some shape to it with more padding and machine wash capability. This would be more suitable for a day at the beach than for carrying books. This was a great purchase! It was as if I had bought it at the store brand new, but for half the price! I recommend it to anyone who wants a new backpack, but doesn't want to pay a lot for it. Average Rating:![]() |

Magna Cart Personal Hand TruckReviewsGood product but the bottom panel should have been little bit longer. If it is long enough, it will be much easier to load different shapes of stuff. speaking of the placement of the wheels, which I agree with wholeheartedly, that they're set too far back and so there's no good feel for picking up and lowering the load - rather than being balanced you're putting a lot of effort into picking up and lowering the load smoothly... But even with that caveat, it works very well especially for the price. Great value for such a little truck, and incredibly portable. I purchased this for one end - to move my small wine fridge in my basement. It's full of about 40 bottles of juice and I didn't want to go emptying it out to relocate it. Worked great, collapses very small, extends well, and was surprisingly sturdy, which was my fear, that it would be a little flimsy. But it wasn't. I like this! Very easy to maneuver and holds some large packages! I got it within a few days of ordering and this one sure is much better than the old luggage cart with stretch straps that would always get dirty because they have to be put down on the ground while getting the items onto the cart before securing. The magna cart is SO much better - total piece of cake - just pull up on the handle and with your foot pull down the platform and it folds up just as easily. It's so slender that the storage of this is really compact too. I'm glad I got this. I have a very bad back and it's made it so much easier hauling things around. I have extreme back problems. Can't lift anything. This hand cart is perfect for me. I put it on the cart use my bungie cord to secure it and move the item. Only thing they need to include the bungie cords. ...at least, not very much over that height if you're not interested in contorting yourself into at least slightly uncomfortable positions in order to use this dolly. That's exactly my height, and I'm just able to pull this cart without having to slouch slightly; although, it seems that part of the problem is that the cart, whether you're pushing or pulling it, seems to have a tendency to want to upright itself. Beyond that, it's a perfectly serviceable cart if you don't demand too much of it. Just today, I used it to cart a 55 pound air conditioner from the pick-up point 8 blocks away, and then up 3 flights of stairs, and it came through just fine. So yeah, be on the short side, and don't be afraid to bully it slightly to keep it in position. It's not great, but it's good enough. Average Rating:![]() |

Master Lock 4683Q TSA-Approved Nickel Keyed Alike Luggage/Baggage Lock, 4-PackReviewsI recently travelled out of the country and wanted to leave my suitcases locked in my hotel rooms with valuables. I guess they serve as a visual deterrent only, but for real security they are worthless. I locked the one of the keys in the suitcase at one point and easily popped it open with the back of a spoon. For real security I will look elsewhere next time. Poorly made little locks, and one of the four did not work. I'd go elsewhere. These worked great. They were nice and heavier than I thought. I will be ordering these again if I need more or loose the keys. Revised 04/12/2010 Initial impressions were not good but now that I've traveled with the locks I rate them "okay" with three stars (up from 1). The locks survived a trip to China and back. The locking mechanism(s) are still rough and flimsy feeling but they did not pop open (as expected) with general airport handling. Adequate with a reasonable price point for 4 locks. ================================================================================= Just bought these for a trip overseas and 1 of the four arrived DOA. The first thing I did was to test the locks by pulling on the shackle and the first lock popped right open. I tried to secure the loop giving it the benefit of a doubt but, no, it refused to lock. I then tried to use the key to see if that would set the shackle into the body but the key wouldn't turn at all. The other locks seem to work as expected but I doubt their longevity. At this point I'm going to use them since I leave soon but I don't expect them to survive the trip one-way much less there and back. As far as I'm concerned these aren't much better than a toy padlock one could get from a gumball machine and Master Lock owes me a refund. TSA will have no worries with these locks -- one stink-eyed look and they'll pop right open. Bought these for a 2/2010 trip to Mazatlan, Mexico. They worked great. On the return at the Mazatlan airport you are required to open ALL bags, even bags to be checked in. Some had trouble opening combanation locks as some felt pressured by airport security to open their locks. Others had several keys for different locks. I just needed my one key to unlock the 3 locks I was using. No pressure! Had no problems with any of the locks but only needed to use 3. Best deal for the price. Average Rating:![]() |

Master Lock 4684T TSA-Accepted Lock in Neon Green, Orange, Pink, or Purple, 2-PackReviewsManufacturers have now mastered the art of web photography. The photos are accurate. The problem is the locks are badly made. When I set the combination, in order to use the lock, one worked, and the other hung up and is now unusable. The mechanism is badly made & imprecise: it set a combination before I finished, and now won't open/close. I'm hardly all thumbs: I don't generally have a problem like this. Why not just send it back to Amazon? Amazon does a good job, & I'm sure they'd help out. But at their price, it's not worth the effort. I wasn't looking for a huge bargain, just some locks that would function, and to avoid a special trip through traffic to the store. I hope reviews like this help discipline the manufacturers to get the innards of their products up to the level of their beautiful photos. The instructions on setting the codes were confusing and I ordered 2 in purple but received one in pink and one in orange. Someone on one of the locks, I managed to change the lock to something unknown and now it is useless. I got the locks - I was disappointed I didn't get to choose the color, but I was sent pink ones, which was fine. However, only one of them worked! Despite what seemed like fairly clear instructions on how to set the combination, only one of them actually works with the combination I set. The other one won't lock at all! I leave tomorrow for Australia, and have two suitcases, and am disappointed that I am now going to have to run out and buy another lock, as I don't have the time to order a replacement for these. I received these locks and tried to program them following the instructions enclosed. One lock worked fine; the other did not. I never did get it to work as I could not program it and could not reset it as per the instructions. The locks themselves are very small and the numbers are a bit difficult to read - must use reading glasses if you need them. I returned them for a refund - will try another brand next time. Haven't actually tried out the locks yet (trip isn't until fall) but I ordered these early so I could have them ready. The shipping was SUPER fast and free which was awesome. And the price you couldn't really argue with (2 for $12 I think). Great deal overall, but I was hoping to have smaller locks so they didn't scream "PARANOID TOURIST" all over my suitcase. The body of the lock itself is 1.5" square and mine are neon orange, wish I could've picked a color but at the same time I don't think anyone will confuse my luggage for theirs now :) another security measure I suppose.

Taylor #8120 Digital Luggage ScaleReviewsI owned the Lewis & Clark Luggage Scale ($24.99 when I bought it) and it was hard to use & was not accurate. I sent it back after I got hit with an Overweight fee at the airport. I got this Taylor one for $12.99 and has been spot on compared to the Airport scale in WPB. This is a small, lightweight item and a great value ! I believe that if you intend on traveling - you buy this product, a small price top pay vs Overweight fees from the Airline....believe me ! i had to end up buying Lewis N. Clark Blanzza Digital Luggage Scale which was worth every penny It is a good tool for traveling, thanks god that some one came with this idea, because is nightmare be in another country and don't know how many (lbs) you ave in your bags. This is easy to carry and ease to use it. Seemed to be pretty accurate, but couldn't get it to work for the return trip with a bag full of souvenirs. Requires a clean, smooth lift; not always easy with a heavy bag. My husband and I love this handy Taylor Luggage scale. Glad it's available for Amazon Prime. We bought one for my parents and they love it too! Comes in handy before we leave the house... and especially as we pack up for the return home flight. Very accurate, compact, light weight - slips into the small suit case pocket. My husband and I have shifted contents between our 2 suitcases to help distribute the luggage weight. Those fancy hotel bath goodies can be heavy -- so, occasionally have to be left behind. If we shop too much on vacation, we always have the option of shipping our purchases back via snail mail. It's good to avoid a costly surprise at check-in when the airline scale flags a suitcase as "over weight." Flying without luggage is expensive enough! Average Rating:![]() |

Marpac Sound Conditioner SleepMate 580A Sound MachineReviewsWe purchased this for our baby who is now 7 months old. We give it a perfect 5 out of 5 because it is a great sound machine/white noise maker. It is running nearly all day because we put it on for him to sleep for his naps and through the night. It has worked flawlessly. Our neighbor has three small boys and their play area is right outside our sons window. They can make quite a racket, but he sleeps right through it. If you are looking for a way to either soothe yourself to sleep or block out noise, buy this sound machine. It has proved helpful not only to use for our infant, but also for us on trips to family, relatives or even hotels. The white noise has soothed us all to sleep! I have no cons to offer. We even are going to purchase another one for our room! This is the 2nd Marpac 580A I have purchased in the last 3 years and have been very pleased with it. The previous machine I purchase stopped working after 2 1/2 years due to a power surge so I bought this new one. Would recommend to anybody that doesn't like sleeping in silence. The proof is in our purchases...five years ago when my first son was born we purchased this soundmaker. When my second arrived two years later, it was a no brainer that we would purchase another. These soundmakers provide just enough white noise that it covers up extra sounds (barking dogs, siblings playing, etc.). My fourth child is due in July, so we're getting ready to purchase our third. The first one was purchased five years ago and is still going strong. We are very pleased with this product as you can tell by our loyalty. I recommend this product with no hesitation. I purchased this item for a friend's birthday who has had difficulty sleeping. I asked her a couple of weeks later how it was working out. She reported back to me that she loves its simplicity and sturdy construction. It's white noise tone is adjustable, and she is sleeping much better now. the sound quality is perfect white noise but beware. It is super loud. And twisting the side for volume control does not really do much. it reminded me of being in an airplane the noise was so loud. Average Rating:![]() |

CPR Leather Cleaner and ConditionerReviewsI used this product on a Botkier handbag (nude pink color) in the hope that this can take away some stains at the bottom and soften the leather a bit. It didn't function at all. On top of that, this white milky product left the treated area darker than the original leather color. I gave it three days before writing this review, so far the color mismatch still shows. My bag is totally ruined. I would not recommend using this product on any soft leather handbags. Leather CPR cleaner and conditioner is wonderful!!! We have 2 large dogs that love napping on our couch, and I wipe it down with this product about every 2 weeks and the leather still looks new! I wipe it on with a sponge and it dries very quickly with no residue or weird smell like some products. It keeps our leather furniture soft, clean and in excellent condition. As soon as I wipe the couch cushions down with it they look brand new all over again... Terrible product. Doesn't clean nor change the way the leather looks. Waste of money. used it on an old leather jacket and gloves that were molded up and they now look and feel great! Worth the price. I had a nice leather jacket given to me as a gift 9 years ago. I neglected to care for this jacket like I should of. Finally after years of neglect, I was looking down at the jacket as I buttoned it up, and realized that it was pretty thrashed and worn. After some searching online, I started looking for leather conditioner. The reviews for this product helped me choose this for the product to try. I spent an hour using it on my leather jacket, and it almost seems like new. It definitely feels like it did when I first got it. The shine is back, the smooth texture is back, and it doesn't seem nearly as worn as it once was. This product was amazing and I highly recommend it for using on leather jackets.

Case Logic Compact Portable Hard Drive Case (Black)Reviewswith it being a hard case and a having a spare pocket for the usb cable, it's everthing i was hoping for. offers great protection. External hard drives can be so delicate and it's important to my peace of mind to spend a little bit more to protect it even if it spends its entire life in a desk drawer and rarely travels (we'll see!). This case is good durable quality which is not too soft at all and I trust it with my data. The magenta is a chill color...something to be said for adding a dash of personality to a pretty standard thing. Fits the Toshiba 320GB HDDR320E04XW nicely with no complaints. All my drive needs is one little USB cord so it fits snug in case's mesh pocket. Happy stuff. I have two Toshiba Portable USB 2.0 2.5" hard drives (measurements provided below), and was looking for something to keep them free from dust and protect them from damage. This particular case serves exactly that purpose. The drive is held in place by a small elastic band that goes across the center of the one side of the case, and the other side has a mesh/elastic combination pocket that is sufficient for holding flash drives or additional cables. It is durable enough to withstand normal usage, but if you are planning on carrying your hard drive in your luggage or somewhere that it is likely to take more of a beating or have heavy items sit on top of it, this case may not be what you are looking for. The only reason I even mention this in my review is that some of the other reviewers are obviously looking for a product to do something that this product was clearly not manufactured or intended to do. This is NOT a hard shell plastic case, nor does it contain hard plastic inside the fabric. It is however hard ENOUGH to protect the drive from the elements and occasional small drops or bumps. I have used these cases for 6 months, and have not had a single problem with either of them. Total measured internal useable dimensions of case for drive storage = 5-15/16" Length X 3-5/8" Width X 7/8" or 1" thick. Just to give an example, my Toshiba drives measure 4-15/16" L X 3-1/8" W X 5/8" thick and sitting in the case, it still allows an additional 1" lengthwise and 1/2" width and approximately 1/4" more for thickness for a larger drive. Hope this helps those of you with a drive and a tape measure wondering if this will work for you. Happy shopping! This case securely protects the external hard drive when carrying it, and has no snags or protuberances that catch on luggage or inside one's backpack. This product is very good. My external drive fits very good in it. Price is very good too. I am completely satisfied with it!! I would recommend the seller and the product. Average Rating:![]() |

Case Logic GPSP-2 Professional GPS Case for 4.3-Inch Flatscreen GPS NavigatorsReviewsThis case was a little too tight for my 4.3" Garmin 1390T GPS and power cord. It also has no padding to absorb the shock of a fall. It wasn't worth the trouble and expense of returning; so I gave it to my wife. She puts her smaller square GPS, in a padded pouch, inside this case and still has room for the power cord. Between this case and her pouch her GPS is well protected and she doesn't have to fish the power cord out of her bag. I ordered the Lowepro 4.3" Navi Shield GPS case for a few dollars more and I'm very pleased. It has a built-in padded pouch, room for my power cord and a thicker exterior shell to protect my 1390T GPS. There's a case for everyone. I'm giving this only 3 stars because Amazon promoted it, as a package deal, for use with the 1390T and I don't think it is an adequate case to protect that GPS. bought this to house my 4.3 g.p.s. and protect it...it does its job well, but it does take up considerable space in the center glove box. This little case is great I do not have to worry about dropping, placing things on top of it, because the screen is protected, and it even fits in my little purse, Good, inexpensive case for 4.3 inch screen GPS units. This case is a little large for my Garmin Nuvi 255W, but it still does a good job of protecting the screen. If the fit had been a little more snug, I would have rated it 5 stars. The case itself is solid enough and protects the GPS unit since I did drop mine once already. Only complaint I have is the zipper hangs up sometimes. I bought it for the Garmin 265WT model (which replaced a 750W model)to carry in when flying to new locations in N. American/Canada. The main unit fits very well into the case however Garmin's new cable is much thicker and does not fit into the case along with the main unit and completely close it. This is not Case Logic's fault so I gave it 4 stars. If they used a better zipper like a YKK the zipper would probably cost as much as what we are paying for the case.Case Logic GPSP-2 Professional GPS Case for 4.3-Inch Flatscreen GPS Navigators Average Rating:![]() |
