Bad marks for Huggies Little swimmers? I disagree!

Tue, 2 Jan 2001 06:46:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - As the Mom of four children I can say with experience that Huggies little swimmers do, do, the job.<br>

With my eldest daughter there were no little swimmers, and therefore we never went swimming with her until she was fully potty...

What to Expect and Do on the VICTORY

Mon, 1 Jan 2001 21:12:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - The Carnival Victory

As seasoned cruisers we try to get onboard a ship every year at Thanksgiving, to avoid the hassle of cooking and all that. This year we waited a long time and the only ship we could get on was the NEW Carnival Victory...

I've had the time of my life...

Mon, 1 Jan 2001 06:16:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - I’ve had the time of my life at Grand Lido Braco!

A seasoned cruiser I decided to try a land vacation in July to get away from it all, and eliminate the stress of clock watching in ports of call while on cruises.

I had no idea...

Coffee & Hi Tech at 6:00AM

Sun, 31 Dec 2000 19:06:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - Well if you are familiar with any of my other product reviews you know already that I LOVE coffee! In my household we drink between 2 and 4 pots a day. The coffee must taste rich and not bitter. I am quite picky about the taste and also the way I...

Leaky and Inneffective after 6 months

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 16:22:53 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - We bought the Pur Plus Faucet Mount Water filter after a news article advised that some dumping area waste may have leached into the wells supplying the drinking water to our area.

It was a bit strange to have the filter mounted to the side...

How do you get 12 cups with an 8 cup reservoir?

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 15:58:42 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - How do you get 12 cups of coffee when you only have an 8 to 9 cup water reservoir? I can not understand how the Hamilton Beach Company can even call this a 12 cup coffee maker. Is it because the Carafe can hold 12 cups? Unfortunately the blue,...

Brethren - MAKE IT A MOVIE!

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 15:09:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - John Grisham's The Brethren is a good read.

I just finished reading the Brethren last night. And while I had the plot figured out by page 89, it was still a fun to read page turner. In this book he took a touch of the client, sprinkled it with the...

DATEK MIXED EMOTIONS

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 14:43:42 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - DATEK On-Line has some good points and some very bad points.

The high notes are the streaming quotes in real time, just like my high priced broker has on his desk at Dean Witter. This is a service I believe brokers pay big bucks for a...

Rugrats should be called RugBRATS

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 14:07:33 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - While I realize that I am going against the majority here, I have to say that as a Mom I find Rugrats to have NO REDEEMING VALUE at all. While everyone likes little Chuckie, including me, his good qualities are overshadowed by the quite often evil...

Elation on the Mexican Riveria

Tue, 29 Feb 2000 17:14:27 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - Taking the Carnival Elation over New Years week was a decision my husband and I made to get away from it all, including the children, for a breather. I do regret that we didn't choose a different cruise line geared more for those traveling without...

Aruba Is A GREAT VACATION!

Tue, 29 Feb 2000 17:02:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - Aruba is one of the most unique islands in the Caribbean. What makes it so unique is it is truly a DESERT island. Cactus grows out of rock 20 feet or more in the air, seemingly with no dirt at all. The trees and other vegetation on Aruba all lean...

Royal Caribbean A Royal Treatment

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 16:20:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - Royal Caribbean is by far one of the best cruises afloat. The decor is elegant, not gaudy, the staff are all reliable and entertaining, and they really make you feel like you can forget about your cares and relax.

I understand that they do...

S/S Norway A relic

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 15:50:57 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - We took the S/S (Steamship) Norway over Thanksgiving. Again we were plagued by a unseasonable hurricane (this time it was Lenny-see my review of the CCL Fascination for Hurricane George) which had destroyed the pier at St. Maarten, one of our scheduled...

Carnival Fascination A Good Value

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 14:03:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Leahwes - Carnival Cruise Line's Fascination is a very good value at about $600-$700 Per person, If you are paying more than that (not counting air) I would recommend you go with a five star cruise line. The Fascination has a great itinerary, starting at San...
