Kenmore Free-Standing Dual Fuel Range: Beautiful Waste of Money - AND DANGEROUS!

Fri, 3 Jan 2003 14:05:50 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - My wife and I purchased this range about one year ago when we remodeled our kitchen. She wanted two ovens, lots of burners, and sex appeal. When we saw this oven, we thought we had found the perfect answer. It IS costly, but the alternatives (say in-wall...

Blaupunkt Sydney RCM126: Quality Control?

Thu, 16 Nov 2000 14:11:23 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - I recently went looking for a good solid receiver to replace the factory model in my Audi. What a shock. Everything I looked at smacked of junk - XPlod this and Mega-maxi that, with five thousand buttons, 7-color graphic displays, and laser light shows...

Bargain Basement A4

Tue, 3 Oct 2000 16:29:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - I used to own a beautiful black 1996 Audi A4.

I traded down. I had to. What a great car that was. But a second child, propriety and priorities made me sell that beauty a few months ago: with two car payments, a new house, and two sets of...

Landmark Lens: A Standout in the Category

Tue, 6 Jun 2000 12:53:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - This lens (and I am talking about the Tamron 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 LD Aspherical IF Super) is one of the best selling lenses of all time and for good reason: it’s extremely versatile. I use this lens for general and travel photography on my Nikon N70, and...

Big Bang

Mon, 5 Jun 2000 23:21:49 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - This system is somewhat of a revelation. I have been an audio enthusiast for many years, and have auditioned a lot of equipment. I wanted something small, simple and relatively inexpensive for my home office. I went around to various dealers in New York,...

Almost Great, Tragic Flaws

Mon, 5 Jun 2000 16:49:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - Ever since I bought my first used SLR at the age of 10 (a wonderful Spotmatic that I still keep around), I have lusted for a Nikon. If only to buy some part of the mystique. Twenty years later, I traded in a Canon AE1 program, and joined the autofocus...

1995 GLX VR6 - It Hauls

Fri, 17 Mar 2000 17:59:14 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - Let me get right to the point: I love cars. Quick cars with slick 5-speed transmissions, capable handling, and no juvenile doodads. I own an Audi A4 and love it. But my wife and I had a baby not too long ago, and we needed something that could haul us,...

Fantastic Bargain

Thu, 16 Mar 2000 14:01:36 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - Strenghts:

How else can you get a Zeiss lens for the price? The pictures I get are of the same quality as my Nikon N70 SLR, and are often sharper due to excellent lens. Decent flash pictures. A great camera to carry around when you don't want to lug...

Just Buy It

Wed, 15 Mar 2000 20:18:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tomjones - I fell in love with this car when I was living in Europe, and could not wait until I could afford to buy one. If you like to DRIVE your cars, as opposed to piloting a barge, you should check out this car. If you feel that spending anything over $20,000...
