Best Value in Miele S7 Vacuums

Tue, 6 Oct 2009 00:48:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - Our trusty all-metal Royal Supreme has served us for 19 years, and while it still works, we have grown tired of the loud noise and inconvenient transition to using hose accessories. But we have benefitted greatly from the larger investment we'd...

Tax Software from Hell

Mon, 28 Mar 2005 06:32:20 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - I use Tax Cut for only 1 reason - TurboTax does not support Form 1065 - Business Partnerships. Before the business, I was a satisfied TurboTax user. My partner and I are contemplating restructuring the business because doing taxes for a partnership is...

Not worth the Sony name

Wed, 2 Mar 2005 02:48:38 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - Lousy shielding for a so-called kitchen appliance means you'll listen to a loud hum with your radio or CD tunes. Not even a grounded chassis via 3-prong plug! Inexcusable for a kitchen unit! Fussy CD deck means that only "perfectly clean" CD's will...

Not really a Multi-Function

Tue, 12 Nov 2002 06:35:35 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - Like others who have reviewed this unit, I have experienced over 2 years of frustration trying to get a working scanner. As a printer, this unit is great (tho overly large). My wife loves the copier functions - it makes clean, clear copies. Like all...

Good Intentions, Poor Execution

Thu, 26 Sep 2002 14:40:17 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - This review pertains to installing the G55 on Windows 2000. I cannot comment if it works any better on other platforms, but unless your into living in computer purgatory, I do not recommend this unit on Windows 2000.

I bought this unit mid...

Cannondale Lefty DLR: Gotta Love that Lefty

Wed, 14 Aug 2002 05:20:09 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - I'm not a Mountain Bike racer, I'm a weekend warrior who weighs 220 lbs and likes to ride fast on a cool downhill singletrack trail.

I was shopping for a new full suspension bike when my LBS said that I just had to try the 2002 Cannondale...

Oreck Rinse-A-Matic

Wed, 27 Mar 2002 17:44:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - I recently purchased the new Oreck "Rinse-A-Matic" Steemer at my local Oreck shop.

This is Oreck's newest version of the Steemer, released in February 2002.

I'd looked at Hoover, Eureka and Bissell machines, but could not get that...

You have to work hard to bank with Wells Fargo

Sat, 9 Feb 2002 08:44:57 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - In 1999, Wells Fargo was the only bank offering online banking with Quicken in Wash. State, and SeaFirst/BofA was WAYYY behind the times, so I switched. It took over 8 weeks of struggling to get a linked checking and savings account opened and ready to...

Roger Jobs Motors Inc: Almost, not quite

Fri, 30 Nov 2001 06:20:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - Our car got totalled by a careless Trash truck driver, so we were thrust into the car market unexpectedly. We wanted to replace it with a new VW Passat wagon, but we liked only one of the color combinations offered. We were looking everywhere in...

Motorola V60c: A true "go anywhere" communicator

Tue, 2 Oct 2001 14:37:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bentbaz - I've been a Nokia / AT&T user for years, but got tired of constant dropped calls. When I saw a friend's V60c, I had to get one. Now I can depend on my cell phone...and I do!

Battery Life: Unlike the Nokia's, you must re-charge this every...
