Most Favorable Review

Lots of Picture Space

Patriot LX Series 64GB Class 10 Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) Flash Card Model PSF64GSDXC10
Patriot LX Series 64GB Class 10 Secure Digital Extended Capacity (SDXC) Flash Card Model PSF64GSDXC10

Pros: For the price after rebate, you can't beat this deal. It's a good brand, works as expected. Got it for a vacation and didn't want to worry about taking 3 or 4 SD cards. For the people complaining about the rebate process, that is how they many work now. The turnaround time on the rebate was right at 2 months.

Cons: No cons I can think of.

Most Critical Review

Timing Dial Broke

Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Commercial Quality Ice Cream Maker
Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Commercial Quality Ice Cream Maker

Pros: This part doesn't seem to be replaceable. Seriously? A dial? Cuisinart told me that I had to get a new machine? Really a $300 machine needs to be replaced because a $5 dial broke???????

Cons: Dial is not replaceable.

Overall Review: I'm still in shock that such a simple part is not available from the company. I cannot be the only one with a broken dial.

LOVE THE RECORDING!

TaoTronics TT-CD03 2.7" TFT LCD Car DVR Video Recorder Camera, 120-Degree Wide Rear View Mirror, Bluetooth Hands-Free Calling
TaoTronics TT-CD03 2.7" TFT LCD Car DVR Video Recorder Camera, 120-Degree Wide Rear View Mirror, Bluetooth Hands-Free Calling

Pros: I had a bit of trouble getting it attached to my mirror, but figured out that it is more durable than it seems. Used it on a VERY LONG road trip, even capturing an accident that happened not too far in front of us when someone went blasting past us like we were standing still and hit a dump truck! Thank goodness the dump truck was moving too! I would upload the video, but don't know how to take out the audio, and I wouldn't want that online!!!

Cons: Haven't noticed any cons yet, I don't use blue tooth, so can't give any feedback on that part.

Overall Review: I bought this at a great sale price, am waiting for it to go on sale again, as I want to buy another one.

Fabulous Case

Vantec NexStar CX 2.5" SATA to USB 2.0 External Hard Drive/SSD Enclosure (Supports 7mm, 9.5mm, 12.5mm HDD/SSD) - Model NST-200S2-BK
Vantec NexStar CX 2.5" SATA to USB 2.0 External Hard Drive/SSD Enclosure (Supports 7mm, 9.5mm, 12.5mm HDD/SSD) - Model NST-200S2-BK

Pros: Very small, not slick so that it doesn't "slide" off the top of your computer tower (that's where I keep mine) --- runs cool enough. Liked it so much, bought another one for a spare drive I had laying around.

Cons: The screws are TINY and you have to twist REALLY hard to get them all the way in (don't drop one!!!).

So far so good

Vonnic VVR1016 16 x BNC 16 Channel DVR System
Vonnic VVR1016 16 x BNC 16 Channel DVR System

Pros: Fairly easy to set up. Had it up and running with my existing cams in a few minutes. Running almost a year now.

Cons: User manual obviously transferred from some other language, and very poorly at that. Nowhere does it tell you NOT TO attempt to log into cameras from any other browser than Internet Explorer. Took a couple of days of crashing and a phone call to tech support to find that out. Since then, only crashes when I accidently attempt to connect with Firefox. Had to replace the fan inside after about a month, it was making a horrible noise. Very cheap throw away fan. I put a little larger fan in, had to wiggle it down to get it in, but, it's tight, and no screws needed!!

Overall Review: I'm sure there are better units out there. I got mine for under $100 with free shipping. Not sure if I would have paid $149 (at THAT time) for it though.

First time buyer of this brand

G.SKILL NS 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-4GBNS
G.SKILL NS 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Desktop Memory Model F3-10600CL9D-4GBNS

Pros: Works as it should. Easy install.

Cons: None unless the price drops in half in the next two weeks!!!

Overall Review: Bought this for a new computer build, everything went as expected. Both sticks show up being recognized, as someone else mentioned, mine were black as well. Can't imagine that even mattering as who sees the ram sticks on a day to day basis anyway??????????
