Mon, 24 Nov 2003 18:11:49 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - I received this omelet pan for Christmas in 2002. It replaced a cheapie non-stick omelet pan that was scratched up & flaking non-stick particles everytime you used it. We've gone through a number of these cheap non-stick pans. Every year or so,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - I received one of these as a gift, but would not hesitate to buy one. It's a fantastic thermos.

Simple modem to do a simple job

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - The Efficient 5260 is a simple ADSL ethernet bridge. It doesn't give you anything fancy, or complicated. You plug it in & it does its job. That's the good news. That's also the bad news, but I'll get to that.

Amber is Awesome

Fri, 17 Aug 2001 15:11:09 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - First, a bit about my tastes. I enjoy many different beer styles: brown ale, porter, stout, cream ale, pilsners, IPA, etc., but an Amber is what I reach for when I don't want to think about it.

Sprecher's Special Amber lager is one of the...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - I purchased a 2046 at Home Depot in August of 2000. I had shopped around quite a bit, and chatted with my local Deere dealer about it. He encouraged me to buy a Scotts at Home Depot, even though he sells the same tractor under the Sabre name. His...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - I purchased a DishPlayer 500 system after two months of research. We recently moved into the country and couldn't get cable, so satellite TV was the only choice since we wanted more than the broadcast TV stations.

Smooth Brown Beer

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - I "discovered" Goose Island Hexnut Brown Ale just last month, when it was featured at the end of an aisle at my local MGM Liquor Warehouse. Only $4.99 for a six-pack, I hoped it would be a good (and cheaper) alternative to one of my favorite...

Hamilton Beach Drips Great

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author mathesius - Let's start with the good, this won't take long: you don't usually have to pay, and the "snow channel" comes in really good!

Now the bad:

You don't have to pay, because they don't usually PROVIDE cable. Here in...
