Montgomery Ward MW8997BEC/ MW8997WEC 900 Watts Microwave Oven: Short Life

Fri, 21 Sep 2007 12:28:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - This microwave is nicely inexpensive, roomy, and powerful, but it won't last long. I had mine for only three years before the filament in the magnatron tube popped (like a light bulb) with a spectacular buzzing noise and the smell of vaporized metal...

Hoover F6024 SteamVac WidePath Upright Vacuum: Excellent Steam Cleaner

Mon, 30 Sep 2002 14:47:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - The ads say that those little spinning brushes will really get your carpets clean. Well, for once an advertised claim is completely true. This beauty really works. Those brushes give it the extra edge to scrub out bad stains and pull out ages...

Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4000 Laser Printer: Fast, Crisp, Reliable, Loaded

Fri, 28 Jun 2002 14:36:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - I've used this printer for many years in different settings, and it has always been a top performer. It's easy to use, yet has the power and configurability to meet the most demanding IT professional's requirements.

One impressive feature is...

Interland: One Word: Inept

Mon, 3 Jun 2002 11:38:03 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - A web site that I maintain was formerly hosted on ICOM. ICOM did a good job, until they merged with Interland, and this web site went offline for months while the merger caused problem after problem.

Contacting Interland support...

Nice design, good sound

Mon, 21 May 2001 12:25:10 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - The behind-the-head design is a great idea. These headphones support themselves on your ears, not your head. There is no need to adjust the size of the headphones, and they tend to stay on your head, unlike other deigns which tend to fall off if...

NOTICE - Latest Update

After purchasing Xircom, Intel has discontinued the REX 6000. This is sad news. Fortunately, a "grass-roots" support group led by many dedicated REX 6000...

Epson Stylus Color 1160 Inkjet Printer: Excellent Quality, Quiet, Large-Format Printer

Mon, 18 Sep 2000 14:33:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - I love this printer! The photo-quality color prints are outstanding. It can handle large paper sizes. It is extremely quiet, and the jets don't clog. The paper-feed mechanism can be a little annoying at times, though. The Epson Stylus Color...

Two Notes of Warning

Wed, 13 Sep 2000 10:21:30 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - The reviews already written for this device are great and hit the nail on the head. I just want to add two more pieces of data. I bought this drive for use with digital video. It seemed ideal at the time. It was fast (for a cartridge drive),...

Reliable Random-Access Storage

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 16:29:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - I purchased this drive after having trouble with a magnetic removable media drive that I had to return. I decided to go with an optical format for stability, since it can't be accidentally erased, and there are no "servo tracks" (like in Iomega's Jaz...

Efficient, Convenient, Noisy

Thu, 1 Jun 2000 15:53:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - Ok, now that I've lived with this unit for a while, I have to make a change: I added "Noisy" to the title, because I often have to turn it off when watching TV or talking on the telephone. This unit is the same size as the 5600 BTU unit,...

Nortel Contivity VPN Switch 400 (DM1401C85) Remote Access Server: Efficient, Quiet, Convenient

Thu, 1 Jun 2000 15:46:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gsearle - Whoa! This was a review on an air conditioner! Somehow it got remapped to another product. I don't think a remote access server will do much good at cooling a room! Ok, now I've lived with this unit for a while, and I am very happy. It's very...
