Ginsu 04852 Essentials Series 5 Piece Prep Set
Ginsu 04852 Essentials Series 5 Piece Prep Set

Pros: I have a Emeril for comparison, which cost more than this entire set. The Ginsu knives won in all aspect. I have glass cut board, and the wavy blades is very gentle on the board and makes no unpleasant noise. Food is cut without much effort. Another good thing about these knives is that they are not sharp on your skin that you don't want to cut, but they are super sharp on the food you want to cut. With that price tag, they are simply unbeatable.

Cons: none

Most Critical Review

Poor Quality

Hanns·G HZ251HPB Black 25" 2ms X-Celerate OD 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 X-Contrast 15,000:1 DCR (800:1 typical) Built-in Speakers
Hanns·G HZ251HPB Black 25" 2ms X-Celerate OD 1080P Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 X-Contrast 15,000:1 DCR (800:1 typical) Built-in Speakers

Pros: Big and kinda cheap (actually I found better deals after I bought this one, but 170 wasn't bad)

Cons: Poor quality. Now I have my old old monitor alongside with this new monitor, and I am surprised to find the images on the new one is not better than the old one. When I turn on the Bright XContrast, the screen will be flashing, so I just stopped using it. At first it wouldn't scale to full screen and I found from the comments that you need to set overdrive to 15% for ATI graphics card. I wonder why they don't even mention it on the user manual and that costs me quite some time to set up. The buttons are HORRIBLE! I've never seen a worse design. They are hidden under the frame and you won't know which one is which.

Overall Review: Stay away from the brand. I don 't know why it had such good reviews when I bought it. Now that many people bought it over the Black Friday sale, and the new comments are all 1 star.

poor quality and broke after 1 week

rooCASE White Heavy Duty Armor Hybrid Rugged Stand Case for Apple iPhone 6 4.7" RCIPH64.7HYBD8WH
rooCASE White Heavy Duty Armor Hybrid Rugged Stand Case for Apple iPhone 6 4.7" RCIPH64.7HYBD8WH

Pros: fits okay although the edges are not even so it doesn't fit perfectly (lower front side in particular)

Cons: very poor quality: the edges broke within a week. printed characters are fading away. The kick stand is also filmsy and doesn't open smoothly.

Overall Review: would never buy this brand again. my new case is on my way. Can't wait to get rid of it.

almost flat response

SONY - Studio Monitor Series Stereo Headphones (MDR-V600)
SONY - Studio Monitor Series Stereo Headphones (MDR-V600)

Pros: almost flat response with a little bit more emphasis on bass, but that doesn't bother me. there's not a part of the frequency range that is over-emphasized, which makes it comfortable for a prolonged time of listening.

Cons: a little bit too big for me. I would prefer leather covered cushions.

Overall Review: note that these have long coiled phone cords

sounds good; bad ergomics

Sennheiser - Earbud Headphones (OCX 880)
Sennheiser - Earbud Headphones (OCX 880)

Pros: dynamic and powerful sound; decent noise isolation; sound quality is about the same as my Bose MIE2i in quiet environment.

Cons: you need bigger than average ears to wear these, otherwise you can imagine how annoying it is having those ear clips constantly dropping down

Overall Review: if you have larger ears, get these.

Good sound, bad shape

Sennheiser - Earbud Headphones (OCX 880)
Sennheiser - Earbud Headphones (OCX 880)

Pros: compared with my samsung headphones that came with Galaxy S, the sound is crisp and the bass is punchy. There's a decent dynamic range. The middle size ear tips fit me very well. noise cancellation (passive) works to a certain extent.

Cons: the ear shape thing is so big that it constantly slips off my ears (note that I use middle size ear tips)----almost unusable for this reason; also they are up to 21kHz instead of 23kHz as claimed by the Newegg website. The volume control is of bad quality. filmsy, unnecessarily big and makes noises when you turn.

Overall Review: might be worth it at $40 if you have bigger ears.
