There are a great number of edge sanders available from a number of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~440790322820 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 20:25:15 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_440790322820?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_423064931972?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - My wife and I seem to be on an ongoing quest to find a vacuum that works well for more than the first couple of years. We've tried a good number of styles and brands, looking for something that works equally well on carpet and bare floors. We have two... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~423064931972 Sat, 22 Mar 2008 04:56:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_423064931972?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_406498872964?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - I've owned an X31 since 1991. Back then they were less expensive, but still a considerable purchase. I had a garage shop that needed to accommodate at least one car, so the idea of a mobile, multipurpose machine appealed to me. It still does after all... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~406498872964 Sat, 27 Oct 2007 02:06:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_406498872964?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_299661037188?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - I've owned this steamer for over a year now, and have used it regularly (3-4 times per week). I travel a great deal, and need to remove the folds and wrinkles that packing leaves in my clothes. I don't like a hard-pressed look, however, so this steamer... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~299661037188 Sun, 31 Dec 2006 14:30:05 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_299661037188?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_213140672132?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - I'm normally not a fan of horror movies, but at the urging of my daughter I saw "Saw." By the end of the movie, I had become enthusiastic about it. The reason for my enthusiasm? It was certainly not the acting, even though it features stars such as... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~213140672132 Tue, 6 Dec 2005 10:30:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_213140672132?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_176358395524?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - I've just finished watching this movie for perhaps the 10th time. I must tell you that it's rare for me to watch any film twice, but if I see a true, valuable story in the film I'll watch it again and again. As a quick insight into my tastes in modern... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~176358395524 Sat, 12 Mar 2005 00:33:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_176358395524?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_176254717572?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - The design of the Senseo is what originally caught my eye - the simple, curved form instantly appealed to me. I began investigating the device (including an immediate visit to epinions) and found it was reportedly fast, simple, durable, and effective... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~176254717572 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 02:37:46 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_176254717572?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_176248884868?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - This nailer is the new version of Porta-Nails 401. The single most important new feature is that unit now has changeable "shoes," which means it can be used for face nailing and blind nailing. This is a great feature, and makes this tool much more... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~176248884868 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 00:57:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_176248884868?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_176247574148?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - This unit has been replaced by Porta-nails with the 402 and 402P units, which perform essentially the same but have the additional feature of an interchangeable shoe. As I mention in my review below, this is a feature that makes the nailer much more... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~176247574148 Fri, 11 Mar 2005 00:26:51 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_176247574148?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_176203533956?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - For over two decades now, the standard equipment for sleep comfort in the backcountry has been the venerable Therm-a-Rest pad – an relatively thin, lightly inflatable pad that contains open-cell foam inside to provide additional comfort and warmth. These... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~176203533956 Thu, 10 Mar 2005 16:17:29 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_176203533956?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_166058495620?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - The Smartdisk Firelite is the best option out there for a portable, external hard drive. The originator of small external hard drives was a company called VST, and they created the first FireWire drives for the Mac platform (back in 1997 or so)... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~166058495620 Sun, 19 Dec 2004 17:38:35 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_166058495620?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_142680493700?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - This is a well-built tool that works fine for limited uses. It is not cheap, but is designed and built relatively well. It performs better than any similar tool that I'm aware of. By "limited uses," I mean that it will not replace a regular shop... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~142680493700 Sat, 5 Jun 2004 17:21:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_142680493700?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_124662222468?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - This review is for the MX-700 model, which is essentially the same as the MX-500, but allows you to use your computer to set up the controls, and then download them to the remote. Since epinions doesn't have an entry (yet?) for the MX-700, and since much... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~124662222468 Mon, 5 Jan 2004 04:04:17 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_124662222468?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_52507741828?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - If you're looking for a high-quality, quiet, efficiently designed treadmill for walking or running, the True is a good choice. If you are looking for a fully interactive heart-controlled treadmill, be forewarned...you should purchase the CI model (top of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~52507741828 Thu, 1 Jan 2004 18:42:21 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_52507741828?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_123650084484?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - After buying an HDTV, it didn't take long to be lured into upgrading our (non-progressive) Onkyo DVD player. After reading reviews, I had decided on a lower-priced Denon model, but the ability to play SACD (Super Audio CD) disks made me go for this model... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~123650084484 Wed, 31 Dec 2003 03:02:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_123650084484?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_121442832004?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bgnoz - Like many folks today, I've been eying plasma screen TVs for a couple of years, watching as the prices fall and planning to buy one eventually. But the more I read about the plasma technology, the less enthusiastic I became.
