Humidity without turning your home into a sauna

Tue, 2 Dec 2008 21:16:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - I like steam humidity. I don't like the cool air humidifiers because they send unwanted cold air around your room in the middle of the winter when you want to be warm. They use paper wicks that get moldy and they aren't very effective in...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - I bought my first of these humidifiers last year. It does an excellent job of putting moisture in the air. I loved it so much that I bought a second one this year. I used to use the cool mist evaporative humidifiers but I never liked having to...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - I rented 2 of these boosters in Florida. My kids are 4 now and too big for their car seats so we need to purchase some booster seats. What better than to try before you buy. This was a very good booster. Easy for me to secure. Easy for the kids to...

Fri, 24 Jun 2005 16:40:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - My old computer and my fear of it crashing kept me from getting DSL sooner. I have a Gateway 550 PC from 2000 and I am running Windows 98SE and AOL 6.0. I was never able to upgrade to AOL 9.0 because of the speed of my computer and finding compatible...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - This TV is the square format as opposed to the elongated picture on some of the other LCD TV's. It is also EDTV compatible which I do not believe is the same as HDTV and therefore I am not sure that it is compatible with HDTV. But these things did not...

Got the sucking power of a Hoover?

Thu, 10 Mar 2005 16:03:45 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - They look like an ordinary straw cup. But when you get them home and take a look, they are not what they appear to be. I bought these at Costco in a 4 pack. They were $12.00 and change. Seemed like a good deal. This is the difference. The straw...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jwskatz - While there are a lot of choices for handheld TV's on line, there aren't a lot to choose from in the stores. I chose this one based on screen size. This type of television comes in a shrink wrap pack and the store didn't have any display models to...
