The appliance you didn't know you needed

Sun, 14 Sep 2003 18:57:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - Most people who come to our house, myself included, had never heard of a steam oven before they saw the one that was built in to our new house. The builders saw it at a home show and decided that they thought it was cool, so they put it in. Well it's ce...

Ritz-Carlton Singapore: Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore

Sun, 6 Jan 2002 21:15:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore definitely lives up to the reputation of the Ritz-Carlton chain. It is one of the best hotels in Singapore, although now that it is a few years old, may not be one of the best in Asia anymore.

The only nylon pullman I'd use

Sat, 17 Feb 2001 04:05:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - After using hardsided luggage for years, I finally went with an upright pullman and decided to get the B&R. The price was very competitive with other premium luggage (but not nearly the price of the Tumi, which looks pretty but you'd get mad once it was...

Briggs and Riley is the best luggage maker

Sat, 17 Feb 2001 03:55:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - Briggs and Riley, as they will be glad to tell you, are the only luggage maker that warranty their luggage for airline damage. The benefit of buying such a tough rollaboard is that you don't have to worry about checking the bag, if you have to.

S20 - a wonderful camera

Sat, 23 Sep 2000 03:18:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - After using a Nikon Coolpix 900 for over a year (see my review of that product), I decided that I needed a new camera. I was primarily looking for something that took better low light pictures, and secondarily wanted one that was smaller and lighter...

Singapore Business is great

Thu, 16 Dec 1999 05:46:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - I recently flew Singapore in business (Raffles) class on a short overnight flight (6 hours). Because it was at an odd time (departed 11 pm, arrived 6 am), I didn't have full dinner, only breakfast. Based on what I have read, I really missed out by not...

United and Upgrades

Thu, 16 Dec 1999 05:33:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - I am a Premier Executive flyer (50,000+ miles per year) with United and I have seen a lot of misconceptions in some of the reviews I've read. First of all, I want to say that I have of course had mixed experiences with United. On average, I think that...

CN36X81 HD "Ready"

Sun, 28 Nov 1999 16:07:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - The Toshiba CN36X81 is Toshiba's newest 36" set and it is quite innovative. We compared it to Toshiba's CN36Z71, which is the next model down in price. That price difference is big: about $600. So why would you shell out almost 50% of the price...

TiVo after 2 days

Tue, 23 Nov 1999 06:50:43 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - Well I took the plunge 2 days ago and bought the PTV 100. I studied epinions and other web sites long and hard to determine if I should buy the TiVo or the ReplayTV.

A few thoughts about my experience:

First, a Philips employee was at my...

RCA DS5451RB DIRECTV System: Great DSS receiver

Wed, 17 Nov 1999 11:06:48 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - I compared the 5451 against the 3rd generation Sony model that was out at the time, and brought along my friend who owns a Sony. The killer differentiator for the 5451 was its Dolby Digital out, as it was the first with the feature. Then we compared...

Don't mind the Farm Bureau

Fri, 1 Oct 1999 23:13:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - There's an interesting story about why I have Country Mutual insurance for my car.

I used to have a small town insurance company (Pekin) in Illinois, and I left my car parked next to my apartment over a weekend while I went out of town. While...

93 626 ES V6

Tue, 14 Sep 1999 02:28:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - I bought my '93 Mazda 626 ES used in 1995. It was a late '93, so it was only about 1 1/2 years old with 25,000 miles. Unfortunately, it is an automatic -- I didn't get to have the fun of the manual. It holds the road really well around corners,...

Important Pros of this board:

Quality amp, short on features

Sun, 12 Sep 1999 03:57:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lemson - I bought the Denon AVR-3200 about a year ago, after comparing it to Sony ES and Yamaha high-end consumer line models. One of the main things that drew me to it were its impressive amplifier specs. I was buying the amp for Dolby Digital, and it was...
