A great little bag!

Wed, 25 Sep 2002 15:00:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - Bought this little bag for my 3rd dd since at the time she was born I had a two year old still in diapers and needed to have two bags since they are in different nurseries at church. Wanted something nice and compact. My other diaper bag was/is a Kelty...

A great double stroller!

Mon, 16 Sep 2002 18:49:22 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I have three children ages 6, 3, and infant. I purchased a Maclaren Techno when my 2nd was born and loved it so much, that when I was expecting my 3rd, I headed straight for a Maclaren double and got the Twin Traveller. We were not disappointed!

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I have been flying Northwest Airlines for almost a decade now. I've not really had any problems with them until the last two years. I've heard from others that they too have been experiencing similar problems with them in the past two years as well...

Awesome! Wished I had gotten this sooner!

Wed, 9 Jan 2002 18:48:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I purchased this bouncy seat for our 3rd daughter as a Christmas gift (she was exactly 2 months old when she got it). Oh how I wish I had gotten it sooner. With my second daughter, we got a Snugli bouncy seat as a shower gift and hated it (the thing...

Baby Bjorn Original: Worth every cent!

Thu, 6 Dec 2001 01:54:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - The Baby Bjorn is probably one of the most expensive front carriers found at the mega stores like Babies R Us...however, it is worth every cent! I just had my 3rd child and it has been an absolute lifesaver. I had two different kinds of Snuglis with my...

So far, so good!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - We purchased our 12' Easy Set Pool two summers ago, and this is our second full summer of use. So far, so good..no leaks or major problems! Our 5 year old and her friends in the neighborhood have a great time in it. It is large enough to fit 4 or 5...

Great play value!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - Purchased this dollhouse with a ton of accessories (some used and some new) for my oldest daughter when she was 4. She has been playing with it almost every day. My almost 2 year old daughter also plays with it almost every day.

Awesome Stroller!

Tue, 8 May 2001 11:41:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I have two children with a third on the way. The Maclaren Techno is my fourth stroller and the very BEST I've ever owned! I went through a Gerry Convenience Stroller (which squeaked horribly, was heavy, and didn't steer well), a Graco (can't remember...

The White Pearl is Awesome!

Tue, 8 May 2001 11:08:02 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - This is the third (and most expensive) vacuum I've ever purchased. My first vacuum was a little canister (something like a Mighty Mite) and my second was an upright (Eureka World Vac). Both pretty much gave up the ghost after about 5 years of use. The...

The last one you'll ever need to buy!

Tue, 5 Dec 2000 13:48:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - The version we have of this is actually a backpack (before Kelty designed two separate models). Our backpack diaperbag is identical to this fanny pack (but with backpack straps of course). This is THE BEST diaper bag we've ever had. Why you ask?

Not enough to give it rave reviews...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 19:05:08 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - This was the first piece of software we ever purchased for my daughter. She was 18 months old at the time. There are several games - none of which require a child to be able to point and click (just moving the mouse will produce effects). My daughter...

Hilarious laughter...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 18:49:44 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - This software is FUN! FUN! FUN! for a toddler/preschooler. Although it is recommended for ages 3 - 7, I would say it is best suited for a 2 1/2 - 4 year old. We got this free as part of a buy 1 get 1 free deal when my oldest daughter was just 2 1/2...

Great first piggy bank...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 18:22:26 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - My oldest daughter started getting interested in money and playing with coins when she was just about 3 years of age, so we got her this piggy bank. We will eventually use this to teach her how to save money when she starts getting an allowance. It is...

Not terribly impressed...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 17:57:34 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - My first daughter's first word was "duck" so when I saw this I had to get it for her. It is basically a mother duck followed by two baby ducks who are each attached by a flexible plastic piece. They are all on wheels, have a long pull string,...

Not terribly impressed...

Thu, 23 Mar 2000 20:09:17 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - We received one of these as a baby shower gift when my second child was born and it was very attractive (had the nice denim Osh Kosh cover and all). Saw some friends who really used their bouncy seats a lot with their infants (even though we never used...

Wonderful show for preschoolers!

Thu, 23 Mar 2000 19:54:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - We are not a big TV watching family - in fact, we probably watch less than an hour per week (that's all four of us combined). However, on those rare occasions when we do watch TV with our 4 year old, Franklin is a definite favorite. My 4 year old first...

Bouncy, bouncy, bouncy

Mon, 20 Mar 2000 20:04:06 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - My baby loved this (and so did I). We first tried this out at a friends house when my baby was 4 months old and she loved it so much that I went out and bought one. She's now 9 months old and finally starting to get a little too big (still uses it, but...

1995 Ford Windstar: Love some things about it and hate others...

Tue, 14 Mar 2000 17:06:59 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I purchased a 1995 Ford Windstar in 1996 with close to 60,000 miles already on it. Having driven my 1987 Toyota Supra Turbo to the ground (had over 200,000 miles on it at trade in), and having made our first long (12 hour) road trip after having our...

Dependability is the word!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - After having an incredibly positive experience with a Honda Accord, my husband purchased a used 1994 Integra hatchback (stick shift) in 1995 when the Accord finally required a new clutch. After 6 years, the Acura is still in perfect condition...and my...

Lasting Fond Memories...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I graduated 13 years ago, live an 11 hour drive (2 hour flight) away, and have only missed Homecoming twice (if that doesn't say it all). If you are looking for a Christian college with high academic standards, a variety of extracurricular activities...

Tue, 14 Mar 2000 15:39:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - This cookbook is probably one of the most used in our household (and we have two shelves full of cookbooks). If you are a busy household but really like to have good food, then this is a must have cookbook. The recipes are delicious and all dishes take...

GE Profile Performance Built Dishwashers : A few gripes (minor) keeps this from getting a rave review!

Tue, 14 Mar 2000 14:55:07 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - We purchased this dishwasher when we remodeled our kitchen last summer since we were also getting a GE Profile Performance refrigerator/freezer and microwave. We like it just fine and have no major complaints. It cleans nicely and is very quiet...

Highly recommended!

Tue, 14 Mar 2000 13:55:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - Bought this when my first child was close to 6 months and have used it with my second child since she was 4 months. This is a must have for babies around 4 months (old enough to hold their heads up without support) through 9 - 10 months (until they...

I'm avoiding this airline whenever I can!

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 02:50:24 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - Had a bad experience with them which left a horrible taste in my mouth...have no desire to fly with them again. We drove 1 1/2 hours to Washington DC to catch a USAirways flight to Boston. When we got there, we were told that the flight was delayed...

This Pump is Amazing!

Thu, 9 Mar 2000 02:25:32 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguini - I had a baby who just would not latch on, so I borrowed a Medela hospital grade double pump from work (I work for a health department). It worked great, but wasn't the easiest thing to lug around and maneuver. We were flying cross country to visit my...
