Epinions Recent Reviews for eskualdun

Neat idea, but for the price, poorly executed.

Sat, 2 Feb 2008 16:38:09 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - My son saw the V-Bot advertised a few weeks before before Christmas and thought it was the best toy ever! I thought it might make a nice Christmas present and went online to check it out. I found for sale at ToysRUs.com and Target.com and a couple...

abebooks.com: Completely lacking in customer service. Be very wary.

Sun, 6 Jan 2008 01:58:31 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Buying on Abebooks.com is convenient, simple, and quick. The site is very user-friendly. Books can be searched in many ways. By: Title Author Keyword ISBN There is even an advanced search feature that allows you to narrow down a search by...

Overstock.com: Is this a retail return process or a hostage situation?

Fri, 22 Dec 2006 15:27:57 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Overstock.com sells just about everything. They sell both new and factory-reconditioned products at discounted prices and offer reasonably priced extended warranties for most products. Our old PlayStation 2 gave up the ghost towards the end of...

Alibris: Easy to Order; IMPOSSIBLE to reach Customer Service... BAD record with Better Business Bureau!

Tue, 19 Dec 2006 21:55:52 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Easy to order. Good when things go smoothly... but, TOTALLY LACKING in customer service when there's a problem. ~*~*~*~*~ Alibris.com is a main storefront for a massive network of independent booksellers with mostly used books. They offer most...

Dyson SUCKS... but in a GOOD WAY!!

Mon, 2 Oct 2006 19:35:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I've had an Oreck for about 12 years. I was thrilled to find it at an outlet store for $75. I was completely content with it... really. Then my mother and father felt compelled to purchase a Dyson for me. "An early Christmas present," they said. I...

An Awesome Washing Machine... er, Computer!

Sun, 3 Sep 2006 21:15:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - We've had this machine with it's matching dryer for about 3 1/2 years now. We love it. The Whirlpool Duet washer uses minimal water and detergent, is tough enough to clean everything well, but is still gentle enough to not damage anything. We...

Ticketmaster Online Store: Yes, better than a poke in the eye... but not by much.

Mon, 26 Dec 2005 21:51:39 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Buying tickets at Ticketmaster.com was quick and easy But that's about as good as it gets with Ticketmaster and Ticketmaster.com. Ticketmaster maintains complete control of the entire ticket choosing/purchasing situation. Whether you buy online...

Benji is back! And he has a message...

Wed, 2 Feb 2005 16:58:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I remember Benji from my days growing up: just sweet story-lines and feel-good movies. I have copies of a couple of the old movies for my kids who have enjoyed them... and, now a NEW Benji movie! I was thrilled. I had wanted to take my 2 year old...

DON'T do it! Turn and RUN as fast as you can!

Tue, 23 Nov 2004 00:17:25 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - AOL. Geez. I've heard horror stories about AOL in the past, so I should have known better. Now, I have a horror story of my own: I have to start by putting the blame on myself. I was dumb enough to accept a free trial from them. But, that in no...

1 star is at least one star too many for this item.

Mon, 8 Nov 2004 16:33:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I thought this could be kind of a fun product when I first saw it. At $20, I resisted buying it though. But then I came across one at Target on clearance at $9.98. The box was trashed, but only one of the decorating tips was missing, so I bought it. I...

Buy a used one... if you can.

Mon, 8 Nov 2004 05:34:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Our new baby's car seat was crowding the back of our Maxima so badly we decided it was time for a new car. We decided another sedan or an SUV would leave us in the same predicament, as the seating arrangement would be the same unless we bought a...

Strong little vacuum in a sturdy, compact package... & pretty, too!

Sun, 7 Nov 2004 23:39:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I bought this vacuum reluctantly. I had read so many reviews of stick vacs that had poor suction, were flimsy, broke in two, and were a pain to store, that I was almost afraid. But I still wanted one. I had a hard time finding one that met my main...

I'm actually having fun cleaning my carpets... :P

Tue, 26 Oct 2004 16:59:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - Knowing I didn't want to pay for professional carpet cleaning ($200+ and having to prepare the entire house at once to meet their schedule), and knowing I didn't want to do the 24-hour grocery store carpet shampooer rental thing (cheap enough, but too...

Awesome machine, just didn't work well with our soft water

Tue, 6 May 2003 13:43:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - My husband owned a Bunn coffee maker when he was single but had given up coffee and gave the machine away.

Now he's married and drinking coffee again and we needed a new machine... so we went with the machine he raved about: BUNN.

I...

If it works, don't fix it...

Mon, 4 Jun 2001 16:43:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I know that analog service is a "thing of the past," but it works, we're happy; why mess with it?

I've had this phone for about 3 years now with no problems whatsoever.

The only difficulty we have experienced related to the phone was a battery...

Only a bowling ball would love this bed.

Mon, 4 Jun 2001 15:11:09 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - This is the bed that uses a bowling ball and bowling pins to demonstrate how wonderful it is.

Maybe... if you're a bowling ball.

We aren't, and we do not like this bed in the least.

We bought this bed at Mattress Land 2 1/2 years ago after...

Better than microwave popcorn any day!

Mon, 4 Jun 2001 13:08:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - What fun making popcorn in this little machine!

The popcorn is as close as you can get to theatre popcorn.

It is easy to use: measure out the corn and oil, put on the lid, and, if you want, add butter (use many thin slices instead of chunks so...

Good little "healthy popcorn" maker.

Sun, 3 Jun 2001 19:02:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - I like this little machine; I remember using one at a friends house years ago growing up. I guess that makes it an oldie, but a goodie.

It does what it says, minus those two or three stray kernals that never make it out of the machine.

It's...

No more "store bread" for us.

Sun, 3 Jun 2001 17:36:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - After extensive research, I decided on the Breadman Ultimate. It retails for $130; more than I had intended to pay, but with the reviews I found on the internet and opinions I read here, I decided it would be the one. I previously owned a Breadman...

If you don't mind the clean-up...

Sat, 2 Jun 2001 16:18:17 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - We found this coffee mill on clearance at Target for $28.

I read the opinions here and figured, "there's always going to be some mess just because you're grinding."

Yes, some mess, but I didn't plan on this kind of mess; the grounds go...

A great little coffee maker.

Mon, 16 Apr 2001 19:53:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - This is my second Cuisinart coffee maker. I would say they are decent little machines. When my first machine quit, I was happy to find this one at Costco. We enjoy the coffee the Cuisinart machines brew.

The timer is easy to set and reset; the...

Kitchen Tools Food Processors: I love this machine.

Mon, 16 Apr 2001 19:52:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author eskualdun - At Christmas time, I borrowed my mom's Cuisinart and quickly became a food processor junky. I had to have one; so I decided "Merry Christmas to myself", but when I started shopping, I just could not justify Cuisinart prices.

I came across this...
