Belt keeps breaking

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 21:12:10 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - We're already on our third belt, and we've only used it about five times. The first belt broke after the second use. The second belt did the same thing. We have one more belt, but we're taking it back. Also (and this is a problem with other Bissell...

Lemon

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - I gave up on this router after only about two weeks. It's unreliable, and even when it works, it has problems. Setup was fairly easy, which was already disappointing since my previous router was trivial to set up. But I had it up and running in an...

Unreliable, Unfriendly

Mon, 31 Jul 2006 21:16:51 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - If I use it wired, it works well enough, but it often drops the wireless signal. I can fix that by power-cycling it, but it doesn't have an on/off switch, so I have to lift it and pull out the power cord briefly. Even though the Ethernet cables snap in,...

Easy to use for simple projects. Inflexible, Bad Support Site

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - I bought Toast to burn CD compilations of dance music. I can do that easily with iTunes, but iTunes doesn't support CD-Text, which I wanted. So a prime requirement was that Toast support iTunes playlists. Furthermore, many of my songs are in Spanish, and...

Too Expensive to Maintain

Sat, 5 Nov 2005 23:09:51 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - I was reasonably happy with my Sonic Care toothbrush until I saw how much it cost to buy replacement heads. (The store where I bought mine cleverly didn't have any replacement heads near the units, so I couldn't see how much they were.) Each replacement...

Great for Storage, Printing is VERY difficult to set up. (Backup tools untested)

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - I had a bit of trouble setting up my Link Station on my network. Tech support told me to load some new firmware, which was complicated but trouble-free. (It shipped with v1.43. I installed 1.44) Now it works fine. Both of my computers can access it...

Didn't Get Stolen. Sounds Great.

Sun, 28 Mar 2004 03:00:56 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - So many car stereos are so flashy that the might as well say "Steal me." I wanted a stereo that sounds good, plays CDs, and doesn't say "Steal me." I also didn't want an annoying removable face plate that's easy to lose and easy to leave at home. So I...

Lots of annoying features

Mon, 27 Oct 2003 18:40:16 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - Unlike other DVD players I’ve tried, all the features work (more or less) as described. You can put 5 CDs in and play them sequentially or randomly, and you can swap out discs while others are playing. Unfortunately, these features have many annoying deta...

Good Remote, Worthless Carousel

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - This DVD player comes with a very well designed remote control, which makes it easy to navigate the...

Good for DVDs only

Mon, 5 May 2003 14:36:25 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author miguelm - This was a very good deal on a pretty good DVD player. It works fine for DVDs, but I had problems when playing Audio CDs and viewing Photo discs.

For DVDs, it was very easy to use. The remote is very well laid out, so it's easy to find the...
