Think of it as a faster, prettier, pricier netbook

Sat, 4 Jul 2009 16:05:20 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - I needed a new laptop. My trusty 15.4” Gateway 6020GZ was showing its age, and I was ready to jump into the world of small laptops – even possibly a netbook. So, I began by reading reviews of the best laptops with a screen smaller...

Great toy - but does take up significant space

Fri, 28 Nov 2008 19:44:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This is a fun toy / activity center, which plays songs, provides fun activities, and can even function as a base for a little one who might be just starting to stand up and "cruise." It is designed for little ones ages 6 to 36 months. It is...

Solid outdoor clubhouse

Mon, 24 Nov 2008 21:28:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This is a nice outside toy for toddlers and small kids (officially good for ages 2-6 yrs). We got it used as a backyard toy, from a family who used it for 3 years in their finished basement. It has survived 2 rough & tumble boys, with no...

Does what it should

Mon, 24 Nov 2008 14:23:31 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Want to tone your abs (with a roman chair) or re-habilitate your lower back (by doing hyper-extensions)? This is your answer. This is a nice hyper / roman chair station. It's pretty simple: this is a steel roman chair /...

Great starter swing

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 20:35:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This is a great Toddler's swing, made to be attached to a large swing set or porch, I suppose. It is made by the Step 2 Company, and is made of hard plastic, with yellow poly ropes and carabineer clips. The yellow poly ropes are important...

Great for entry into SLR photography

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 22:03:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Let me begin this by telling you that I am not even remotely a pro or even avid photographer. I have had point and shoot cameras dating back to the 35mm automatic days, and including a couple point & shoot digital cameras, and lately I have been...

Perfect balance of price and picture

Thu, 18 Sep 2008 12:38:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Take a look around the current TV market - projection TVs are a thing of the past - Rear Projection "tube" tv's and LCD projection TVs cannot be found for sale, except on "closeout" deals. DLP TVs are still alive and kicking for the moment, though it...

Small in size, but big in power!

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 00:15:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - We got this food processor as a gift, as we just had our first baby. We planned to make all baby food fresh (rather than canned) and needed a processor to do all that chopping and puree-ing for us. This has definitely fit the bill! First, it's...

Great, compact dryer with nice specs

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 12:59:49 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This compact front-load dryer matches the whirlpool washer, # L
HW0050PQ.
The washer is extremely quiet. Unfortunately, this dryer is not. This electric dryer is compact, at 33 1/4" high x 2 3/8" wide x 23 1/4"...

Great, compact washer!

Thu, 28 Aug 2008 11:55:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - We bought this washer with its companion dryer roughly 7 months ago. After doing some research, we found a "standard size" front-load washer/dryer combo would not fit where we were intending to put them. Our house was built before the front-load washers...

Great walking stroller, a few problems however.

Wed, 27 Aug 2008 00:06:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - We received this stroller as a baby shower gift. This is our second stroller, used primarily for neighborhood walks and hikes. It handles this duty extremely well, with its inflated tires and large wheels (large for a walking stroller). It is a...

Crossover as they should be

Sun, 24 Aug 2008 20:48:02 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - The Ford Edge is a nice crossover - probably the epitome of the segment. The driver sits nice and high, but it definitely has a car-like ride. It is sporty looking, with a large chrome grille, and optional BIG chrome 18" or 20" wheels. It also gets...

Verizon's 8130 review after 8 months of use...

Sat, 9 Aug 2008 00:59:16 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This little gem is my first foray into the world of Blackberry ownership and usership. I decided to jump into the “smart” phones from my Motorola Razr, mostly so that I could be able to keep up on email while I’m on the road. In that regard, it has...

Beastly, but not really as big as you think...

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 11:43:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Hummer came out with the Hummer H3 in 2006, to go along with its big brothers - the H1 and H2. The H1 is a civilian carry-over of the military Humvees, and is not really that usable in daily driving (too wide for most uses). The H2 is a BIG vehicle,...

Perfect for plugging an outlet for good

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 10:27:30 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - There's no question- these are very good at plugging electrical outlets, and I can't imagine the kid who could get these things out. The problem is that they also are very difficult for adults to remove and use the outlet. These are better at...

safe, secure, easy (for adults) to use

Fri, 8 Aug 2008 09:44:45 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - It came time to kid-proof the house, and we started checking into the alternatives for outlet protection. There are three basic types - 1) the "old style" plastic plugs that are easy to use, provide protection, but are fairly ugly and easy to pull out,...

Just the basics - exactly what I need!

Sat, 19 Jul 2008 20:55:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This is my first GPS. I have known relatives and friends with GPS devices, from the original mount-on-dash type to the newest voice activated, custom installed units. I finally decided to join them, and get my own GPS navigation unit in early January,...

good integrated stroller + starter car seat set!

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 21:58:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This is a great stroller - car seat system. We did a lot of research before registering for this at our baby shower, and this had positive reviews almost exclusively. In our 7 months of use, we have been very happy with our choice. I actually have a...

crib alternative with other functions

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 12:13:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - As a Crib/Bassinet: We used this as a bassinet for the first 9 weeks, and we used it as a changing table for a little bit longer than that. The bassinet level is good for infants (15lb limit) and the bottom level is great for use as the baby gets...

Best high chair we found - and we're still happy!

Sat, 12 Jul 2008 11:05:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This highchair came highly recommended by a family member who recently had a child. So, we checked it out. It was more expensive than almost any other high chair, so we were a little reluctant, but after reading MANY reviews of all the high chairs...

VERY useful

Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:35:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - This item is a must for the parent of a newborn - well, not this bouncer necessarily, but A bouncer is a must. My daughter is 7 ½ months and will still sit in it for 15-20 minutes while I eat or need to run out of the room for a minute. At this age,...

Wow - what can you say?

Wed, 9 Jul 2008 16:28:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Wow - what a car. Let me give you a little background. I have been an American car freak for my decade and a half of driving. During that time, I have owned or leased 8 cars, 6 of which were American made. I like American car handling and looks,...

A recent Weber convert talks about his experiences

Thu, 1 Jun 2006 19:18:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Update: 2 years later - how is it? GREAT! I have been heavily using this grill for over 2 years now (going through 3 propane tanks ea. year on average). It is a fantastic grill. I have not had to lift a finger to clean or fix anything, and that is a...

Good Radar and Laser Detector - from a newbie

Tue, 23 May 2006 14:47:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author twyatt2 - Let me start by saying that this unit is my first radar detector after twelve years of driving. Now that I am traveling in the range of 20,000 miles per year, I decided that it might be worth it. This unit was available locally at the HH Gregg for the...
