Toast-for a price

Sat, 27 Oct 2001 18:19:06 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - Ok, what was I thinking buying a $300 toaster??? I asked myself that question as I was driving to the store to buy it, as I was staring at the store display, as I was handing my credit card to the cashier, as I was driving home, and as I was unpacking...

Sharper Image Online Store: Sharp, but not as sharp as it could be

Sat, 1 Sep 2001 02:25:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I recently had a chance to experience both the Sharper Image Online Store and Online Auction. Both were fairly pleasant experiences, but could have been better.

I was in the market for one of those Ionic Breeze machines and went to the online...

Larkfield Auto Ctr: One fine auto shop

Fri, 31 Aug 2001 00:29:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I've used Larkfield Auto for several years now off and on. These guys are the nicest, most caring people I've ever seen in the auto business. When I walk in with a problem they treat me like I'm an old friend and promptly see to my needs.

Beach Camera Online Store: Very nice store

Thu, 30 Aug 2001 21:37:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - About a half a year ago I needed a new APS camera and went online to search for a good deal. I already knew which model I wanted so all that was left was to find a good deal.

After using several online pricing sites, I noticed that Beach...

Another epic!

Mon, 11 Jun 2001 01:42:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I've played all the games in the Myst series and I've got to say that this is the best of them all. The original Myst was a jaw dropper and brought a new dimension to puzzle type games. Riven was larger and more complex, but was too complicated in...

Going on a long vacation?

Sun, 10 Jun 2001 20:29:24 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - My wife and I got a matching pair of these for a 10 day trip from a Samsonite Outlet store. We paid just $225 for both of them. What a deal! Not only was it a deal, but we got some great suitcases.

The 700 series Silhouette 6 line of...

Toast surprise Updated 10-21-01

Sun, 10 Jun 2001 13:12:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I've had this toaster for about 3-4 years and have been pretty pleased with it overall. But now that it's older, I'm starting to see some shortcomings that when I look back, were there all the time.

I don't know how many years to expect a...

Sony SAT-T60 DIRECTV Receiver with TiVo Service: I've died and gone to heaven (updated 9-7-01)

Tue, 22 May 2001 00:58:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I've had Directv for at least 4 or 5 years. When I dropped cable and switched to satellite I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I got more channels, better picture and sound, and I got it all for less $. I didn't think it could get any better.....

Rice, Rice and more Rice!

Thu, 29 Mar 2001 21:46:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I don't know about you, but I never could cook rice to my satisfaction. It would always end up over/under cooked, burned, or just plain gross. Was it me? Was it the rice? My cooking method? Ugh. Then I got my first rice cooker. It was one of the...

Very nice for the price

Mon, 6 Nov 2000 23:04:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - I bought this shredder after my Royal Orca 3500 died big time. The Orca was a pretty decent shredder when it wasn't jamming. I think I paid about $55 for it on sale. It was the cheapest crosscut shredder that looked like it was built to last. When it...

THE Best Gin

Fri, 3 Nov 2000 01:29:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author elucas - Of all the gins I've had, this is the one that sticks out. Its taste is truly unique. While lower end gins tend to be harsh going down, Bombay Sapphire is incredibly smooth. High end gins while smooth, lack the flavor that Bombay Sapphire has. When...
