My wife and I get one of these every year for her sister to add to her collection. They seem to be nice collectibles. I can't give it a full 5 star rating due to the box having some minor dents and bends. For a collector this might mean something and for others the case is just more packaging. I give it a 4.5 over all because it was a good deal and about $5-$10 cheaper that any store we checked for this year's doll.

We ordered this bike and it was delivered on time and the box was in decent shape. The problem is that the tires specified for this bike (2.35) are too large to clear the brake's U-bracket and the tire rubs against the bracket on the rear tire. Given the small amount of clearance between the rear tire and the rear U-bracket for the brake this tire it too big. We took the bike to a bicycle mechanic and he said the brakes worked fine and the tire was "true" but that the tire was too big/wide for the bike/gears. Our friend has the 2013 which came with 2.25 tires and they barely clear the brake bracket. We called Kink BMX (US) and they are going to send us a brake with a larger clearance that we will have to install ourselves. Friendly customer service but could have been avoided if they had assembled the bike with a more appropriate tire size.

A friend who's head of maintenance for several rental properties turned me on to this, and I found it simply amazing. Unlike other "orange" products that look good for maybe a day and then fade away, this dries to a hard, shiny finish that keeps looking great indefinitely. I shared it with a contractor friend who specializes in kitchen and bathroom remodels, and now he's sold on it too. Instead of demolishing and tossing his customers' old wooden cabinets, he gives them new life and donates them to charity (e.g. Habitat for Humanity). For just a little elbow grease and a few bucks, they're saved from the scrap heap.

I have purchased 8 of these... and 7 of them arrived so badly disturbed/shaken that I had to tear open the protective film, reset the tray, and pour the damp rid product back on top...otherwise it wouldn't work properly. Some of of us remember how it used to be; you poured the product on top of the tray, it would capture/dribble moisture down through its holes into the trap container below, pour out liquid, repeat. Now, they these arrive pre-packaged, I guess to make it safer? with a paper like film on top. Well, that is all fine and good, except for the shipping process. I don't know how the 1 out of the 8 made it intact, but the rest were so bad that I worried that it the mixing of the top/bottom reagents would ruin the process. One tub was crushed so badly that product was pouring onto other things in my box... it was a real mess. These big tubs not only have a huge amount of damp rid product on top of the plastic tray... but some sort of absorbant material in the 'catch' tub below...I guess that is to prevent overspilling? Sketchy if you ask me. These WILL MIX during shipment, the tray will become unseated, and the whole thing could become compromised. (Mine did 7/8 times). I am watching mine closely... all 8... because with this freakish hot/humid weather my house needs help. I will update if the tub spills over like other reviewers noted.

I love all the IT products. My skin does too, my coworkers said I have been looking refreshed lately. Really its just the IT cosmetic line.

Recently forced to upgrade from Windows XP (a system that worked perfectly, by the way, if anyone at Mircosoft is listening). It's more 'refined' visually', but that also makes it more difficult to see. I'm still learning to cope with what I assume was intended to be a 'refined' overall appearance, which translates to more difficult to see for those who have vision limitations. I find myself searching to find the tools I'm used to using hidden in new places and finding that something as simple as 'undo' and redo' are now 'Ctrl Z' and 'Ctrl Y'. (Good luck figuring that out and remembering the 'secret' combinations.) My personal computer is used for word processing only and is not connected to the internet. Attempting to install software under these circumstances is challenging. The software states the program will only operate for 29 days unless you register online, or by phone. Attempts to get someone to call me back from Mircosoft (after setting up an account) failed. When connecting my computer to the internet (temporarily) to register, no information boxes showed up for me to register. I ended up having to take computer to an office supply/computer store and paying to have them install. Very irritating. That said, the software itself does what it was designed to do, although I find it does not cover all my needs and I have been slowly researching additional software to rebuild my system. In my opinion, it feels like consumers are being held hostage with all these forced upgrades and 'improvements', and we are paying a ransom each time ... when what we originally invested in worked.

I LOVE this case. It is perfect for eliminating a wallet. I really like how this case holds 3 cards. I get so much attention when I travel about how cool my case is by holding my cards. You never will leave home without your wallet with this case. It is fantastic!
