adidas Men's Kanadia Trail 2 Trail Running Shoe Review.

 "Great shoes" 2009-10-27
By Adam Oliff

Fit is a tad tighter than some other Adidas, still great running shoes. Tight heel cup if thats what you like.

By Luis Alvarado (Venezuela)

Very nice shoes, I'm wearing it right now, very cool, and if you go faster it refreshes your feet. Good price for the quality

 "confortable" 2009-11-07
By Gomez Luis

good relation price/ quality, lightweight, feet are always ventilated, i tested them in a 10 kilometer race, no ulcers or erosion.. excellent shoes!!!

 "Great Shoe!" 2010-04-24
By Army Biker (Colorado Springs, CO)

Probably one of the best shoes i've owned. Runs a half size small but if you need to, run to a shoe store and try a pair on then order online; cheaper. Very light, looks great, but be careful when it's wet, I slipped some when I walked into a store after a storm. Highly recommended though!

Speedo Women's Vanquisher Swim Goggle Review.

 "great pair of goggles" 2006-07-10
By Anonymous24 (los angeles, ca)

these goggles are great. i'm an average swimmer who swims about twice a week. i had a pair of tyr goggles which used to slip off my head slightly and water would get in them if i didn't put it on right. with these, everytime i wear them, water never gets in, they never slip off, AND i don't have to spit in them to make sure it doesn't fog up. they fit comfortably and feel great.

 "Superior brand, excellent price." 2005-08-13
By K. Meyer

A high quality competition goggle with fun colors. The eye pieces are tinted to reduce glare from sun and reflection from the water which is a nice feature. The Speedo Vanquisher goggles are the best competition style goggles I've found.

 "Best goggles on the market" 2006-02-25
By MLee (Phil.PA)

These are the 5th pair and I keep coming back for more. I have three swimmers in the family and they all use vanquishers. Nothing to complain of other than people keep taking them from me at the pool.

 "I LOVE vanquishers!!!" 2007-02-06
By Sarah Barski (Cleveland, OH USA)

When I needed a new pair of goggles, my friends from swim team recommended that I get Speedo Vanquishers. I assumed that they knew what they were talking about, since the majority of them had been on swim team for years, and WOW did they!!! I LOVE my vanquishers. They let in no water, they don't fall off when I dive in, and I never have to worry about the straps breaking. Now, I won't use any other kind.

 "Excellent goggles" 2006-03-26
By Josh (New Jersey, USA)

These goggles are very good and fit well, over time the gasket near the nose may wear down and leak. There are different sized nosepieces included. The anti fog coating lasts for a while as long as you do not clear the lenses with your fingers. They are very similar to the GCG goggles, which have a foam gasket instead of the rubber on the vanquishers

Coupler Attachment - InStep & Schwinn Bike Trailers Review.

 "Don't buy this here....." 2008-09-02
By April T. Henley (Wayne, MI USA)

We have a bike trailer that uses this and it is great, easy to hook the trailer on and off. We are ordering a second for our other bike. Instep had been out of stock for a while and they have them again. I am glad I never thought to look here because it is $8.99 on the InStep website and for me in Michigan it is only $4 shipping. That's $12.99 total which is less than the price of the item only here on Amazon. Had I bought this here I would have paid almost $20 for the item plus shipping.

 "Complete package including washer, pin, and hitch." 2010-06-08
By iowaryder

This part is identical to the hitch couplings that come with the InStep trailers other than it is a gloss black instead of a more matte black finish. One thing not mentioned in the product description is that this incudes not only the coupler and pin (as pictured) but also the special "washer" that mounts behind the hitch to keep it horizontal.



Often a concern or issue with the cheaper trailers is if they will properly mount to more "high end" bikes. The garden variety mass market retailer bikes (i.e. the cheaper ones) usually have a horizontal dropout for the rear axle where the more expensive bikes will have a vertical dropout for the axle. The hitches are designed with mass market retailer bikes (horizontal dropouts) in mind.



These hitches will work on either. With vertical dropouts rather than following the directions provided, you must instead position the tab that sticks off the back of the washer so that it will rest against the bottom of the frame instead of within the dropout as they are designed.



My wife an I each have one of these hitches on our Raleigh Route 4.0 hybrids (that have a vertical dropouts) and they work just fine. The hitches are also completely compatible with "quick release" style hubs.

 "Easy and quick to install" 2009-04-16
By Derek

I bought this so we could pull our child trailer with both mine or my wive's bike. Takes only a small adjustable wrench to install. The lock pin U-clip is very firm. Best part of this setup is the child trailer will not tip over if you dump your bike.

 "got just what I was after" 2009-06-09
By Christine Reynolds

We needed a coupler attachment for our bike trailer and went straight to the manufacturer. They (of course) were out so I went to amazon and got exactly what we needed and for a cheaper price. It came to us within a week and works great.

 "A must have" 2008-10-29
By Jeremy W (Concord, NC)

I bought this extra Coupler so both my wife and I could attach our Schwinn Bike Trailer to either bike. As far as I'm concerned, this is a must have. The coupler system makes it so easy to hook up a trailer to a bike and based on how much I have already used it I feel confident that it is a high-quality and reliable system.

Schwinn Aluminum Frame Pump

Schwinn Aluminum Frame Pump Review.

 "Great little pump" 2009-09-09
By AcornMan (Denver, CO)

I have used this pump on Schrader and Presta valves and it worked brilliantly on both. I was able to get good air pressure into the new tubes and complete my rides as if nothing had gone wrong.



A couple of the pump's features are particularly nice. First, I like how it not only snaps into the holder that attaches to the frame but also has a velcro strap to hold it securely in place. No worries about it ever falling off no matter how bumpy your ride, and I can leave it on while my bike is on my car rack. Second, while pumping there's a lever to hold the nozzle firmly over the tube stem so it doesn't leak or slip off. In short, this pump did exactly what it was supposed to do, and you certainly can't beat the price.

 "Works well for my comfort/hybrid bike" 2009-10-06
By Ashok Krishnamurthy (Cincinnati, OH USA)

I needed a basic portable pump for my Giant Sedona hybrid and bought this pump based on its reviews and the attractive price. It works well - ie. frame mounts well and satisfies the pressure needs for my comfort/hybrid bike tires (they don't need more than 100psi max that this one provides).





 "Schwinn Mini Pump" 2009-01-05
By M. Turchin (NY, NY)

I bought the Schwinn mini pump from Kmart today, and I can say that I am very happy with my purchase. It was very easy to install on my bike where the water bottle would mount if I had one. It hangs off to the side so that you can even still mount a bottle holder there (but is small enough that it doesn't get in the way), and comes with extra long screws so that you wont come up short on installation even if you have extra accessories. The pump is easy to use, and has 2 slots for the 2 different types of air nozzles (which came in handy b/c my bike has both nozzle types: Presta in the front and Schrader in the back). It's sturdy, and looks/feels well made. It's new, so it hasn't had a chance to break, yet. But if anything goes wrong I'll be sure to post another review

 "Perfect frame pump for a perfect price." 2009-09-03
By Manuel J. Varela (Clearwater, FL)

This quality Schwinn made, frame mounted bike pump is half of the price of other pumps and is just as great or better. The Velcro strap keeps the pump in place while riding and the fold out handle makes tire inflation a little bit easier.

 "nice pump for on the road" 2009-12-04
By I. Durham

This pump does the job. Fits on the frame nicely and is easy to install. You could probably use it as your main pump, although I think most people will be happier with a standard floor pump. I have only used mine a few times, when I need air away from my home and don't have my main pump handy. Each time I've had to use it though, it's worked well and it's still in great shape. A good value, I think-- especially when you're out of air a need it!

NALGENE Tritan Wide Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle

NALGENE Tritan Wide Mouth BPA-Free Water Bottle Review.

 "Great water bottle for everyday use, just like it's called" 2008-09-07
By Amazonreviewer (USA)

I've been using this a few weeks so far, and it seems very sturdy. I attach it to my bag with a carabiner and have seen no signs of breakage while hiking with the bottle. I love that the bottle doesn't leak, and it's a BPA-free product (good for me, good for the environment). Plus, I have not noticed any unusual smell/taste while drinking from the bottle (unlike most reusable plastic bottles), but I have not tried hot beverages in it yet. The wide-mouth IS very convenient for ice cubes and cleaning. Highly recommended!

 "LOVE 'em!" 2008-08-06
By Julie Berry (Rio Rancho, NM USA)

I love my Nalgene! I have never put hot liquids in mine, but I love that it's easy to put lots of ice in it, and with the little sipper accessory you can buy it's fantastic b/c the 'ice dam' never breaks & you can drink it while you're driving and not worry about getting wet. I've had mine for 2 years now & still using the same 1! I have a spare, just incase this one breaks or gets lost. I find them VERY sturdy b/c I've droped mine a bunch of times & it's never cracked. It's fallen off the top of the car, out of the car, my 4 year old has dropped it. I think it's virtually indestructable. My sister has the Sigg bottle & it's dented in several areas (whatcha expect from alumunm?) Anyway I like my Nalgene better than her Sigg, and mine was less than 1/2 the price of hers!

 "Essential Backpacking Gear" 2007-09-27
By M. Keatts (Los Angeles, CA USA)

This bottle is an essential part of my backpacking gear. It's virtually indestructible and doesn't leak. I use it to mix my pancake batter - add the mix, water and shake. I then just pour the batter in the pan right from the bottle. Also, my Katadyn Hiker Water Microfilter is made to connect directly to the wide-mouth bottle opening so it filters and pumps directly in to the bottle. Great product!

 "Great nalgene bottle" 2008-12-06
By swirls503 (New Jersey)

This nalgene bottle is great. I wanted one that was BPA free. It's everything that the product description was. Durable, easy to clean, does not absorb odors. I use it every day.

 "The incredible, unbreakable, unmistakable umm... bottle" 2010-05-16
By Robert M. Hanna Jr.

You can't go wrong with this. When I was in college, my roommate and I decided to test the structural integrity of a Nalgene. We were, for reasons which I cannot fully reconstruct, irritated at the structural perfection of the thing. Didn't matter what one did to it, it would not break. We were tired of having our flaws and inadequacies sneered at by this inanimate plastic thing, so perfect at it's job, so faithful, so unpossessed of anything even approaching a flaw. Nothing, we reasoned, has any business being perfect. So, we chucked my full Nalgene out of a third-floor window. It landed on concrete with a terrific SMACK!, which startled the hell out of this annoying girl who just happened to be standing close by, and bounced about five feet in the air before coming to rest, entirely unscathed. People seemed shocked, but we were not even a bit surprised. This thing is so solid, it's really kind of incredible. Like Chase Utley, the Godfather, the Hope diamond, Abbey Road, the chicken nugget, I cannot imagine an improvement. It's just so... perfect. If you're not totally thrilled with one of these, I don't know what to tell you. It's just that good.

McDavid Waist Trimmer (Black, One Size)

McDavid Waist Trimmer (Black, One Size) Review.

 "The best one available" 2008-06-18
By Culbertsun Incsoleil Tan (Suwanee, GA)

I have tried a number of different waist belts and this is by far the best one I have ever had. Several of the ones I have had before wore out quickly and number of them were not wide enough to cover the entire mid-section. This one is by far the strudiest and best one I have ever had over the past 10 years. I am ordering several more just in case the next time I need one I can not find this brand. Whatever you do - don't buy the belt by GoFit. It wears out in less than a month.

 "Unbelievable!" 2009-08-12
By M.LOLz (CA)

I was skeptical about this product to be honest. I've learned that when it comes to my body, to change something requires Dedication and Discipline. I had fat stored in my stomach area (even though I'm skinny 6"3 and 200lb). I used this product for 2 weeks.



I did not change my routine and I never made abdominals and had poor cardio performance. I mainly did chest, bicep, back and other main muscles. During every exercise I felt the heat i was generating in my stomach area.



I had to readjust the Trimmer 3 to 4 times in a 2 hour period because of the water I was losing.



In just 2 weeks my stomach fat was greatly reduced and my waist looks way better. My Body fat is more or less the same 18% +/-1%.



I highly recommend it!

 "So far 5 Stars" 2009-08-06
By Mr. Allnut (United States)

I did not buy this belt with huge expectations of loosing inches. Exercise and diet does that. I really wanted it because I have a condition called diatasis recti. Not serious, but it has resulted in a herniated belly button and looks terrible if I am exercising. I needed a tight, tough belt to hold everything together.



I have had this belt on all day now while working. The first belt I bought was the Bally Slimmer Belt With Zippers. I thought the zippers would make for a tight fitting belt versus the Velcro.



The Bally belt fell apart the first day. This is one is strong and sturdy. The Velcro system is fine.

 "Excellent trimmer" 2009-07-31
By R. GOLDENBERG (Bayside NY)

This is the third waist trimmer I've used and by far the best. The width is perfect and the velcro is tight...never comes loose. Gives me good support and makes me sweat!

 "Good product" 2009-07-30
By Segun O (Fresno, CA USA)

I bought this item few weeks ago and I have used it during my daily exercise routines, and i have to confess I find the product very helpful. With it I have been able to burn off some of the excess fats in my mid section area, and I have no doubt it will play a large role in helping me meeting my weight target for the year.





Polar F6 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Pink Coral)

Polar F6 Women's Heart Rate Monitor Watch (Pink Coral) Review.

 "*I Have a Geek Toy, I Have a Geek Toy*" 2006-08-08
By WordGirl

Easy to set up, accurate, user friendly. Just took it for a test drive this morning. Shipping was fast and friendly. Nice user manual. Very explanatory.



Put in your vitals, adjust the strap around your chest and put the pedal to the metal.



I burned 511 calories -- 45% from fat. For 49:51 minutes of work, I spent 14:46 minutes in the 144-160 beats per minute range; with my heart rate topping out at 178 (93% of my maximum for the "moderate training zone"). My average heart rate was 151 for the duration (79% of my maximum). The alarm cued me when to step it up and also when to back it down so I could keep on a better training track.



Apparently, I've been working too hard in the past. Because just as the HRM was yelling at me to back down, I was thinking, "Geez, touchy thingie! I can go way harder and higher than this!" But if it improves my stamina, all the better.



I would recommend reviewing the product manual and setting up your customizations the night before if you are an early morning exerciser. Setup and familiarization with the product/material takes about an hour.

 "Can't Workout Without It." 2007-11-29
By milohyellow (OKC, OK)

I can't exercise without this thing. I've had it for over a year now and the batteries have not died yet. It tracks all calorie expenditure and heart rate activity. It not only gives you your high and low heart rates during an exercise, but the average you were at for the duration as well. Before I got this HRM, I didn't realize how off I was on my exercises. I wasn't exerting myself enough. This thing tracks where you are at no matter how you feel and tells you if you need to increase or decrease your intensity. I haven't had a problem with it and I've dropped it several times on accident. It's waterproof so you can soap it up and wash your sweat off of it. I love this thing! Can't say enough about it.

 "Good for the Heart!" 2006-11-02
By H. Murphy (Seal Beach, CA)

I use this to run and also at the gym. The Polar transmitter belt works with most treadmills, ellipticals, stair steppers and bikes at the gym so that is really nice to have your heart rate displayed on their screens. I like to be able to set target zones for my heart and it beeps once I've reached that. Helps me to know where I am and how hard I'm pushing myself. The color of the band is not my favorite pink shade and it's not as feminine of a shape as I would like (Nike makes one that looks better, but it doens't work w/ gym equip), but to me the look isn't what's important. It displays the calories burned, avg heart rate, max heart rate, and time of exercise and the end of your workout. Very handy for the workouts!

 "Polar F6 excercise motivator" 2010-08-23
By SB

The Polar F6 Heart Rate Monitor is a fun little gadget to help you get motivated to work out. You can track how many calories are burned, and check that you're in your fat burning heart rate zone while you work out.



WIth regards to fit, my wrist is 5 3/4 inches in circumference and this watch fits perfectly. The watch can be adjusted as small as 4 1/4 inches to as big as 7 1/2 inches. The spacing between the adjustment holes is about 1/4 inches apart and there are 19 holes, so there is a wide range of adjustment options. The face is about 2 inches tall and 1 1/2 inches wide.



The stock transmitter is just fine, it came in medium. It slips right under the band of my work out bra and stays there during cycling, running, and Tae Bo. I haven't had a problem with it slipping while I work out, and I work out pretty hard (average 450 calories per workout) and have been working out with it for about 7 weeks now.



The only downside is that the program Polar uses to download your workout information to your computer is not Mac compatible for the F6. So if you have a Mac, make sure to check that the Polar you are purchasing is Mac compatible, as Polar has made some of its newer Heart Rate Monitors Mac compatible.



I would order from this seller again. I ordered my product around midnight on a Saturday and got my F6 the following Monday! Quick!

 "Makes Me Work Harder!" 2008-02-09
By Thora Hanson (Atlanta, GA USA)

This watch is making the difference in me working out alittle and working out alot. Not only does it give you your heart rate, after putting in your settings of weight, age, resting heart rate plus others, it keeps up with you max and min rate and the % of your max heart rate. It lets you know if you reached your target rate and warns you when you go over or under your target range by beeping, and gives you your average rate also. I think this is the OWNZONE feature.



You can upload your workouts to the polar website and keep a log of how many workouts you have done during a week or month, calories you burn and even the different types of exercises you have done. It motivates me to able to see if I have burned the amount of calories I need to in a week. I also know which exercise gives me the better workout, be it rowing, circuit training, walking, cycling or even hoop dancing.



I have also found a website, podfitness.com, that will mix your music with the voice of your choosen fitness trainer that will design a cardio workout for you to use with this monitor. You download the recording to your computer and mp3 player and it paces you thru your workout where ever you choose to workout. It's great!



I'm really glad that I got this particular model. It will surely help me to reach my goals of losing weight and improving my cholesterol levels. If you are looking for something to give you a push to exercise, and you are independent like me, this may be the thing for you.

Intex Pillow Rest Twin Airbed with Built-in Electric Pump

Intex Pillow Rest Twin Airbed with Built-in Electric Pump Review.

 "Decent quality, cheap air bed. That's the key, folks an AIR bed." 2008-10-24
By Joseph M. Siegler (Garland, TX USA)

My wife and I were in need of an air bed. I had surgery on my leg this week, and it was decided that I'd have our regular bed to myself for a few weeks. So we needed a place for my wife to sleep, as several weeks on the sofa isn't a great idea. So I set out looking for an air bed. We didn't know one brand from another, so it came down to reviews and price.



There seemed to be two sticking points with people. First, did the thing come with a pump, and how did it feel? Price too to a lesser extent. I did notice that some beds do not come with a pump, and you're looking at an additional $25 on average for a decent sized pump. We were looking for something decent, I didn't want the cheapest one imaginable, but I wasn't looking to break the bank either.



So I happened upon this one. After reading the reviews, I decided to take the plunge. My wife has slept on it for a couple of nights, and has said it is OK. I think that's what most people here who are ragging on it aren't taking into account. THIS IS AN AIR BED. If you buy this (or any other one) expecting it to feel the same as your regular box spring and mattress, then you're missing the point. Air beds aren't meant to be the same. My wife says it's comfortable enough, but she wouldn't want to sleep on it long term. Which is the point of these. Short term bed. It feels great. It has kind of a water bed feel to it (especially if you don't fill it to max capacity).



The air pump is built into the unit, you basically open a hatch, take out the plug, put it in the wall, and go. You run the pump by deciding whether or not you are going to inflate or deflate it (it sucks air out too). It filled the whole thing in about 2-3 minutes. It's somewhat loud, but not excessively loud, so if you're in a place where quiet is an issue, this might be a concern, but I imagine any pump would be that way.



Some reviews talk about leakage or punctures. Sure, it's got the potential for punctures, but what air bed does not? The package comes with a puncture repair for a few minor leaks, but we have had it inflated for a week now, and have not yet had to refill it.



It's good quality, it's cheap, and has a pump. We give it five stars, as my wife can sleep on it, and it does the job. Recommended!

 "Great for extra Guests" 2006-03-09
By Sheila Gaylord (Adel, Georgia USA)

Our Guest room overflowed and we needed an extra bed. This was GREAT. Inflates fast and easy and is very comfortable. Stores away like a small suitcase. Twin sheets fit well. Very happy with the product and it will get a lot of use.

 "Outstanding Purchase!" 2007-01-14
By Karen D. Judy

I had this airbed shipped to my mother's house over the holidays for out-of-state family to sleep on. Everyone commented how really comfortable and convenient it was. It only takes minutes to inflate and deflate..the built-in pump works great. I was so happy that it didn't lose air after two weeks of use. After the New Year, it easily fit in the carrying case that comes with the mattress and packed it away in the closet for the next time!

 "EXCELLENT" 2006-03-13
By J. Gonzales (Kew Gardens New York)

I must say, I have only once in the past tried an air mattress, during a sleep over, at a friends. By far this was a much better experience. I slept like a baby, also it was very conviently packaged (for travel purposes) which was an added plus.



I defitnely reccomend it. I generally suffer from back problems, and my back did not hurt me at all during my 12 days vacationing.



It was great.

 "comfortable kids bed" 2007-08-23
By J. Martin (New York)

My grandson loved sleeping on this blow up bed, he said it was so comfortable. It's a great idea if you need xtra guest beds, because it deflates and stores so easily. It takes about 3 or 4 minutes to inflate.

I would recommend this product highly.

Wenzel Insta-Bed Queen Raised Sure Grip Bottom with Built-in Pump Review.

 "No-nonsense air mattress w/ thoughtful features" 2008-01-19
By W. E. Chase (San Diego)

This bed is a step above the Aerobed. Unlike my previous 2 aerobeds, this mattress doesn't leak. None at all over an 8 day period of guests. Not even a slow leak. None! Pump is quick and the power deflate is a real time and space saver. Flocking on the mattress is also warmer than a cold plastic top. Can't believe how much less in price this was over the aerobeds-- a no-brainer!!!

 "Air bed." 2008-01-14
By rAma (Dayton, OH)

Found this to be an excellent bed, pros are longer air retention (I sleep at least 5 days before needing to turn on the pump), uniform pressure distribution. I normally do not have any back problems and this bed did not introduce any new ones after about a couple of months of regular usage. Our guests loved it, the only con I can see is that the pump is so slow - takes a minimum of 4 minutes to fill the bed from flat and takes similar time to deflate. That is negligible compared with the pros, we recommend this product to anyone that is interested in an Air bed.

 "Absolutely incredible" 2008-01-02
By Sharyn Criswell (Atlanta, Ga.)

We wanted to get an air mattress for guests we were expecting. We have purchased them before and they were very disappointing. They were either uncomfortable or they wouldn't hold air for very long. Any amount of movement when lying on them, didn't help.

We decided to try Amazon.com. After reviewing the different air mattresses that they showed and discribed, we read the reviews that were given on those products. We decided on the Wenzel Insta-bed and we feel we absolutely made the right choice. It was easy to set up and take down. It's very very comfortable. Our guests enjoyed it so much, they wanted to pack it up and take it home with them. They said they were as comfortable as they are in their bed at home and slept great!

We are very pleased with our purchase and we recommend this product to everyone!

Thank you!!!!!!!

 "Whew! What a relief!" 2008-09-21
By Randi R. Creighton (Tuscaloosa, AL, USA)

My daughter and I were moving and sold all our furniture before leaving. Our plan was to find a bed for each of us we could use indefinately... or until we were able to get our 'perfect bedroom suite'. These beds have been great and we have been sleeping on them for a month now. We have a 65 lb dog that runs and jumps on them and we've had absolutely NO problems with leaking or tearing. We got the matress cover recommended at purchase which helps protect it, I'm sure. We also got king size sheets w/ deep pockets for the queen size air bed because the fitted sheet stays on perfect in the larger size. Fantastic! and the built in pump works great for inflating or deflating. Absolutely love this bed!

 "Better than expected" 2008-03-11
By D. Loux (NC)

I read reviews before making this purchase. I wanted to get it because it met all the things I wanted, and was willing to put up with slow inflation and deflation to get them. Well, I don't know why someone thinks it is slow unless they have only a couple of minutes to accomplish the task. We find the inflation/deflation times acceptable. It is a comfortable bed and looks good. We have not yet used it for guests but laying on it feels very nice. We got it for overflow situations so it will be used only on those occasions and I think it will be perfect. Our family has lots of arthritis and the height makes it quite good for getting into and out of bed.

Intex 110-120 Volt AC Quick-Fill High Output Electric Pump Review.

 "Super quick & easy to use" 2008-09-02
By Mama of Two (Sunnyvale, CA)

I ordered this along with a jump-o-lene for my kids, it inflated the entire (massive) thing in a matter of minutes and was so easy to use I didn't even have to look at the manual! You just plug it into the wall and stick one of the air nozzles right into the air plug. It came with 4 different sizes I believe, worked great very happy with my purchase! The best part is you can use the same pump to deflate!

 "Excellent value for the price" 2009-11-11
By Peter Ungar (New Rochelle NY United States)

A well designed product for blowing up air mattresses, baby pools and such. This type of pump produces high volume at low pressure; for pumping tires a different type of pump is needed. The noise level is 85 db at 2 ft, noisier than a vacuum cleaner (about 75 db) tolerable for short periods but one might as well use earplugs if one has them.

 "Does the job at the right price!" 2008-07-23

I needed an electric pump to inflate a kiddie pool and this did the job in about 15 minutes (there were several compartments to inflate). Unlike other electric pumps that required 24 hours to charge, this one worked right out of the box. Just plug it in and attach the right hose/nozzle for your job and it goes to it.



No frills on this model though. No car adapter (but you can always get that separately) and there's no way that this thing can run unless it's near an outlet (but you can always attach an extension cord). But it does a great job at its low price.

Great air pump. Filled up 120 inch pool in less then five mins. Worth the price and i didnt turn blue from blowing it up myself.

 "Wow, has this air pump come in handy! Didn't realize how much I needed one...." 2010-01-12

Had no idea how much we needed an air pump like this till we actually had one to use! We have used this for the kids jump-o-lene 71.5" x 40" Jump o Lene Jump n Gym, for rafts and other pool toys, for inflatable mattresses when company visits. Never had one before, and we purchased it specifically for the Jump n Gym, but once we had it, we were shocked at how many times it came in handy!



What's great about it is that it has several different sized nozzles, so you can use it for so many things! Oh, and the fact that you can also use it to deflate stuff really makes life a lot easier! It's super-fast, and I can't believe we went so long without it. Now that I've gotten used to just grabbing the pump when we need something inflated or deflated, I can't imagine not having one.



We highly recommend this air pump. It has been reliable, durable, and very very convenient. By the way, it's not heavy and doesn't take up much space, so you can easily take it with you if you need to. Super-duper recommend it! ;)

Ray-Ban RB2132 New Wayfarer Sunglasses Review.

 "A Classic, But a Note on Fit:" 2008-06-30
By Adam B.

If your considering buying the Wayfarer by Ray-Ban, you already know it as a cultural staple, worn by everyone from Dylan to The Blues Brothers. But, as cool as the shades are, be careful when it comes to fit. The "New" Wayfarer is substantially smaller then the old style, as well as being a tad more modern, not dominating the face as the old kind do.



The "New" style also comes in two sizes, 52mm and 55mm. I received the 52 only to find them to be a bit too small (I am an average size male), once I returned them for the 55 I was more then satisfied. So in conclusion I would recommend the new style Wayfarer to those wanting the signature look of the style, but with perhaps a bit less obtrusive frame. 55mm is average size, while 52mm would be for females or even some children.

 "Classic look and great fit" 2007-12-28
By RWS (Berkeley, CA)

This is one thing I have in common with Jack Nicholson ... a love for the way the Ray-Ban Wayfarer's look and fit. I first found an old used pair of Wayfarers at a garage sale for 25 cents back in the late 70's. They fit so well and the price was right. I loved them. Later I learned that John F. Kennedy, Bob Dylan (on his first tour in England), and Jack Nicholson wore this model.



I lost them in the 90's and couldn't find a current model that were quite the same. It seemed all the models at that time were bigger and rounder, so I didn't replace them. Then the "New Wayfarer" model came out and although they call it new, it reminds me of the old pair I had ... size, look, fit. So I bought a pair and am love'n them again. I use them for sailing, driving, hiking, rafting, travel, etc.



These sunglasses actually block the wind better than some biking sunglasses I bought. I also prefer the non-polarized green lens to the polarized lens that came in those same biking sunglasses. When I ride into the shadows, the polarized lens blocked out too much light and it was hard to see the pavement. The green lens let's in more light allowing me to see better in shadows, yet without being too bright in sunny spots.



The 55mm New Wayfarer in classic tortoise (color 902) with the green lens is my cup of tea, although Dylan wore the black color. They stay on so well I don't need a strap to keep them on during vigorous movement. And your eyelashes don't hit the lenses when you blink.



Great gear!

 "My take on fit of these great glasses" 2009-06-26
By Ahaa

I am glad I bought the New Wayfarer glasses, wonderful and a better design then the old ones.

I am too a average size guy and I bought the small frame (52) and I am glad I did. For me the fit is perfect and I would not want them any bigger.

FOR THE WOMEN WHO DON'T WANT TO WEAR THOSE DOOFUSY-LOOKING GIANT SUNGLASSES!!! after owning several wayfarer fakes, i know get it: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. these are awesome. i'm a chick with a pretty narrow face, so i ordered the smallest frame, tortoise shell with green lenses. now i just feel cool. all my friends going around with those gawdawful nicole richie bug eyes look so stupid -- i could never get into that look.

now i want them in every color, LOL!!

 "Best Wayfarers since B&L made them" 2008-04-06
By Ian G. Tichell (BUFFALO)

When the Italians bought the RayBan line, they pimped up the Wayfarer with all a bunch of bells, whistles and fashion points that went against the grain of this basic, classic style. With the "new" Wayfarer, they figured it out and brought back the beautiful, functional design that was the trademark of the original. This throw-back is a joy to wear, looks great, and is the best option for those who want that classic look that B&L Wayfarers gave.

Titleist Pro V1 Golf Balls (One Dozen) Review.

 "Still the best ball ever made" 2009-12-04
By M. Littman

I am a 2 handicap, and I have tried the Callaway HX balls, Bridgestones, Nike One Platinum and the ProV1 is still the best ball out there. The cover is soft enough to be able to spin the ball, but still stands up to wear and tear. I usually use 2 balls per round max. It's actually a little longer off the tee than last year's model too.

By Windy writes (Chicago)

I know several avid golfers who swear by the ProV1 golf ball and I've read that it's the ball most touring professionals. I was buying them as a gift, and I checked around and could not find them priced lower than at Amazon.

By Cassandra A. Wagaman (MD USA)

they have a lot of bite "easy to put spin on" if that is what you like and controllable

 "Gift Balls - the best" 2010-09-05
By Jamie Damato (Chicago, IL)

As a non golfer, I rely on my golfing friends to tell me what they want for various golf-related gifts. And these seem to be the clear winner. And I'm sure if I ever pick up the game, these are the balls I'll choose.
