query: Does the bed feel solid and sturdy or does it squeak and shake if you move in your sleep.

pos: The bed feels pretty solid. I have a tempurpedic mattress on it and it fits well/doesn't creak or shake. My partner and I weigh about 300 pounds combined so we aren't particularly putting a lot of strain on it, but I toss around in my sleep and haven't felt unstable nor have I heard any squeaking in the 6 months I've had it.

pos: Its hard to say because we use it to set around an adjustable bed. It's not attached to the bed. But it seams like it is constructed well and feels solid and sturdy.

pos: The bed feels very solid, sturdy, and comfortable. That said, I have a firm 9" memory foam mattress on it so there are no squeaky springs to speak of. When I purchased, I was worried I'd have to buy a bunkie board for the memory foam mattress, but it's just sitting on top of the slats, and it's fine.


query: Does this TV offer picture in picture on screen?

pos: Unfortunately, it does not have picture-in-picture. It is hard to find any TV with PIP and the DirecTV PIP is very small. This size screen screams for PIP, especially for sports.


query: does this havr google playstore?

pos: No it. Doesn't have the Google market. And the blackberry market is non existent. And so is the tablet I had hell just trying to give it away.


query: I have an 870 clone ( h&r Pardner) will this tube cap fit my gun?

pos: I am not 100% sure. I bought it for 2 Remington 870. Best bet is to google it and find there website and contact them and ask them the question. Than go back to Amazon and buy it. Sorry.


query: Does this need a C wire or does it run on batteries?

pos: The manual says if you connect the "C" terminal, it will only use the batteries for backup.

pos: This does not need a C wire. It uses two AA batteries. Honeywell (and others such as Trane) use a C wire on models that use WiFi or voice recognition or Z-wave so they can have a 24V connection. All thermostats use low voltage from the other connectors and typically use the batteries as a backup when there's no C wire. For this thermostat, you can take it off the wall, hold it in your hands and program it. You can't do that on models that don't use batteries. However, those other models can be programmed from a computer or phone app so it's less necessary.

pos: I had to call the company however I told them the model of the thermostat I was removing the wires that were connected to it the wires that I had and they put me on hold five minutes came back and had a complete custom diagram of what wire to move to what wire works flawlessly

pos: According to the product description above, batteries are optional: "For added convenience, the thermostat unit can be run using battery power or using power from your heating/cooling system, giving you the option of permanently eliminating battery changes."

pos: t requires 2 aa batteries to store info, and it gets wired up to the back panel. The front of the thermostat can be detached from the back panel. I had my a/c guy install the unit, but it's not very hard to do it. It comes with instructions.

pos: It doesn't run on batteries. We tried first to install it but couldn't get it to work so we called in an electrician. We really like it now especially since we can set it to a different temp while we are sleeping.


query: Will it fit makeup geek eye shadow pans??

pos: Im not exactly sure but I would suggest getting the quad from elf. I used mac eyeshadow man in this and it didnt fit perfectly. The case itself isnot magnatixed so the pans will not stay Iife the pans dont fir perfect. I placed my mac pans inside the metal pans shown just to have them grip but they are very difficult to remove. Hope I was help. Mac pan prices have been lowered for abput 4 dollars extra I would invest in those


query: Are these easy to break into tiny bits for training?

pos: They are very easy to break into bits. I actually tear mine into four pieces for my dog. Wellness also has a puppy treat that is smaller than the dog treats. These are great treats and they are not full of a bunch of junk like so many others! I only feed my dog Wellness! If you have any other questions just let me know...

pos: Yes, very! They are actually scored so you can tear them into halves, fourths, etc. Would be perfect for that! I will even use them to give pills (small ones). I'll hollow out a little hole, put the pill in, and my dogs just eat them up. : )


query: Does more microns means smaller mesh? 400 is a tighter weave than 100?

pos: the higher the number, the bigger the holes. 100 is a tighter weave than 400. I use the 400 a lot for honey. 100 doesn't filter so well, even if the honey is warm. It just sits on top and SLOWLY drains.

pos: With microns it goes the bigger the number the bigger the (hole). Mesh is the opposite, the smaller the number the bigger the (hole). So a 100 micron would be smaller (finer) than a 400 micron.

pos: The smaller the number the finer the mesh. In other words the holes in the 100 micron strainer are smaller than the holes in the 400 micron strainer.

pos: More microns means larger mesh.http://www.industrialspec.com/downloads/MeshMicronSizes.pdf


query: What camera chip do you use for this camera

pos: Not sure what you mean by 'camera chip'. But I assume you mean memory card. I use the "SanDisk Extreme 64 GB SDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Flash Memory Card 80MB/s (SDSDXS-064G-X46) " SD memory card. It works perfectly fine in all modes.

pos: I got the Sony 32GB SDHC/SDXC Class 10 UHS-1 R40 at eBay for the best price for $20.99 free shipping.


query: What happens to your nails once you have achieved the length and strength you need? Do they begin to crack again?

pos: Wow! I thought it was me (being older). After acquiring a certain length----I began to notice that my nails has gone back to "square one". Cracking, breaking and splitting.

pos: In my case, yes. Wish it will take care of the problem but it's only temporary.

pos: If, I stop using it yes. Its a deficiency for me. I've had this problem my whole life. Weak nails is gut issue its not... your nails are just weak.


query: I also want to hang a sono sound bar from my 46 in samsung 6300 tv. What mount attaches to this mount so the sound bar moves with the tv?

pos: We just have the tv on it. I am not sure of the sound bar. Did you try the peerless website?

pos: The TV only mounts to this bracket. If you want to install a sound bar it may have to be mounted on the TV. I didn't use a sound bar on mine. Consult the documentation of the sound bar installing.


query: does this bottle fit in a regular bicycle water cage??

pos: It should, circumference-wise. The 24-oz one, though, is a bit taller than what I've seen being used in bicycle water cages, so depending on where your water cage is mounted, it might (*might*) be a tight fit, length-wise. The 20-oz one is closer in length to a standard bicycle bottle, I think. These are awesome bottles, though. Very easy to drink from, but still don't spill.

pos: Yes. Works great on a bike. I like the indented part, it helps maintain a grip on the bottle when you pull it from the cage.

pos: Yes, they do. I prefer the side-access cages which avoid the constraints of having a small frame and lacking space to pull the bottle up.


query: Hrm wonder what the chances are that these boxes have been cherry picked? Seller could easily weigh the boxes to find god packs inside certain ones =\

pos: The average weight for all boxes would be the same O.o... Even if one was a few tenths of a gram heavier that would only mean it had one or two extra cards which they couldn't possibly value. The odds of them opening a booster box just to pull out two worthless loot cards is WAY too high.


query: Do these forks include the ratchet binders shown in the photos?

pos: Yes, mine did and are easy to use. I'm a 70 yr old woman, put them on my tractor bucket easily and they work great.

pos: They come with aluminum screw downs so they don't rust. They work well, but the bracket that holds them broke on mine after just a couple days. The welds were not good and the bracing isn't strong enough.

pos: I don't know anything about ratchet binders. each fork is equipped with screw down clamps that secure the forks onto your bucket.

pos: Forks do include every thing you see in the picture. They are not ratchet binders, but the green handles that you see do tighten down to secure the forks to the bucket

pos: Yes, the forks work great. I bought the heavy duty forks. The only issue I had was, I picked up a very heavy load and it bowed my bucket slightly. But again, the forks was everything I expected.

pos: Yes, my purchase included the fork stablizer bar thats adjustable. Work's fine


query: Can I use it for Windows XP to back up what I need to transfer to Windows 8.1?

pos: It should work very well to copy files onto, and then load them into your new machine. Pretty much all files, pictures, documents, etc., should transfer nicely. As far as software installations, I don't think it's a good idea. You'll need to reinstall Microsoft Office, Chrome browser, Picasa Photos, and so on and on. Unless someone knows of a way to transfer these that I'm not aware of, I sure wouldn't attempt to do anything except reinstall programs with a fresh start. I don't think it would be a good idea to use any type of "backup" program to do that transfer either, unless you carefully experiment first. Make sure the backup software installs and runs on both computers, then try one small folder to make sure it goes smoothly. Personally, I'd use a straightforward copy of the files to and from the drive, either manually or using a program such as Second Copy. (I highly recommend that program.)


query: Work on Mac? Anybody know?

pos: The cd version definitely works on Macs. I have been using TurboTax for years as a Mac owner so have no fear:)


query: Is there a way to use the beater brush for getting in spaces about 6 in. tall (under the bed). The attch that lays flat is ok for this, but not great.

pos: No. I haven't been able to get the beater brush under the bed. The only way to do it, if the bed is low, is to take off the mattress and box springs and clean it that way. I do this about 4 times a year.


query: I have some brass pieces painted with enamel inside etched patterns on the brass. Is this product safe on enamel or will it strip the colors?

pos: No, I have used it where it has got on fresh painted metal and it never done anything to the paint. It sure polishes the brass though.


query: Will this fit the DWX725B stand and if not, is there one that will?

pos: Hi BillI am not totally familiar with the 725B but if you have the model with extensions on each end that carry other work piece stands/holders then the wide roller will also work well for you. If there is a central fixing point along the length of the unit then the roller should be good to go.

pos: I no this will not fit DEWALT DWX725 or DEWALT DWX725B but it will fit on the DEWALT DWX723


query: is this different than the one with fresh greens, warm wind, pepper, finishing with mahogany and water.

pos: It's a same bottle but I never use it . So I don't want to give you any false info


query: What is the fabric? Synthetic, natural?

pos: The fabric is a blend of natural and synthetic, a cotton/spandex...it feels like soft like a chamois. Cotton threads have capillaries so it absorbs water, which then takes a long time for the fabric to dry, having a blend helps with that. You will not be disappointed in this product. I did weeks of research on eye pillows before my eye surgery, I found this to eye pillow to be the superior over all others! FYI, to keep the pillow from smelling like the freezer, place it in a sealable plastic bag. After washing be sure it is completely dry or the beads will freeze together, not a big deal, they come apart easily. ENJOY!

pos: VERY soft cottony fabric. Not sure as I cut the label off but definitely does not feel synthetic. I do enjoy this. Keep it in the freezer. Never gets too cold to put on my eyes.

pos: It feels like a cotton t-shirt material but kind of stretchy. It could be all cotton or blended with poly to make the stretch. It's very soft. I have very sensitive skin and it hasn't irritated me at all.


query: What's the difference between this liner and Weathertech 44481-1-2 Front and Rear Floorliners

pos: I think I understand your question. The floormats have curled up edge to stop mud or water getting out, the front mats are individual mat right and ledt by the way fit very good. the rear mat is one piece goes over the hump

pos: The Weather tech liners are perfectly fitted to the vehicle. I also have a heavy duty floor mat on my driver and passenger floors. The carpets look brand new nothing touches it is complete coverage.

pos: The one you show is not available and only fits the sedan and not the coupe. Depends on whether you have a 4 door or 2 door Honda Accord


query: what do you do if you buy a train set n scale and you have every thing lade out but the engine dont run

pos: All I can say is, if you have the tools and the knowledge of how it operates, then I suggest fixing the locomotive yourself. I know it's harder to fix steam locomotives than it is to fix Bachmann N scale diesels (I've taken apart my Santa Fe GP40), but it may save you some money. Otherwise, I suggest visiting your local hobby store or ask someone who has model trains. Maybe they can help you in having the locomotive fixed.

pos: Get in touch with Amazon which will be acomplete waste of time for they wont respond I had simular issues

pos: Make sure all the sections of rail are fitted together very, very tightly. And all wheels of all cars, as well as the engine, are totally on the rails.


query: is the back drop permanently attached or is it separate

pos: The backdrop is a separate item that you can attach or not. I personally screwed my backdrop on. I really love this heater!


query: Is this the same pitcher that Keurig sells for about $25?

pos: To the best of my knowledge, yes. I bought mine at about $20, before the price spike. Rather small, but gives you tea or lemonade very quickly.


query: Hi , Could you please help me in letting me know if this is a brand New Camcorder with Projector, and is it sealed pack with warranty.

pos: Yes it came to me as brand new, it does have a projector but isn't the strongest. The camera is very nice but the projector is mediocre..

pos: I cannot confirm the unit YOU are buying has a sealed pack & warranty. I CAN tell you I love the one I bought!


query: what are the dimensions on this oven

pos: 17" wide with 3/4" on each side to keep it clear of any side wall11 1/4 deep with 1 3/4" projections to keep it away from the back wall 10 1/4" high

pos: 15 1/2 X 18 1/2 X 10 1/4 inches these dimensions include side spacers, rear spacer and door handle. same as Barbara C.


query: Does it include power cable for 220V?

pos: My battery charger had a cable but not for 220v since I am living in the US it came with a 110v

pos: The version I received in the United States did not include a 220 volt power cable. The unit is rated to handle between 110-240 volts and 50/60 hertz, but the plug style is distinctly for 110 volt outlets.

pos: It came with US cable for 110V, but you can get an adapter over sea to use 220V.


query: I'd like to buy a right-handed one. Is this the correct model??

pos: it is a left handed model. That means you turn the crank with your R hand, like a R handed spinning reel, but, bait casters are usually opposite.

pos: That's the left. Any of the part numbers that end with a "L" are lefties I believe.

pos: tommy's right i just bought the lx it is left handed. It is so far one of the best reels i have purchased for the money. casts nice super lightweight

pos: HS-273VLXa is the left handed model. The right handed model will not have the "L" in the model number


query: Is this the correct charger for the Samsung Gusto 2?

pos: I do not have that model of Samsung phone. Also I can not see the end of the plug wire in the picture. So I have to say I do not know.


query: Will this charge devices with different size ports? I have an LG Phone, and a Garmin GPS, but also want to charge my Kindle Fire. All the ports look different.

pos: You have to supply your own charging cable. As long as that cable has is male USB on the other end (opposite end from your phone,gps,fire), then it will work fine with this charger.Basically if you already have USB charging cables for each of those devices, this solar charger will work just fine. If you only have the wall plug in charger for those devices, then you'll need some extra USB cables to along with it.

pos: Yes, it will charge all USB devices. The charger has one USB port, similar to one in a computer or on a wall outlet charger. You must supply the various cords to plug in your various devices.

pos: Yes. The charge cable from each different device will plug into it. You will have to carry the charge cable for whatever device you want to charge though.


query: gas range whirlpool model sf362lxtto oven lights but will not stay lite?

pos: Check for a burnt out bulb. Remove and inspect under bright light and see if the filament (little coil springs) is broken.


query: Will this fit me 2000 lexus es300? Is this a genuine OEM part?

pos: HelloI need the vin number of the car to check it. And yes it is a OEM PART.

pos: It is a OEM part you need to call a lexus dealer to verify the part will work on your engine.

pos: Iy is a OMG part, you need to call a lexus dealer to verify the part will work on your engine.

pos: Yes all I sell is Genuine parts. Please call your Local Dealer with your VIN# and check compatability.


query: Does anyone know if this would fit in a 2014 Focus ST?

pos: It's possible....., mounting it is easy you need about 10-12 inches of room. I would suggest in front of the radiator.


query: i have just bought the computer for 6month, and the video card is already broken, i just want to know can i return the video card and get a new one

pos: Yes you can. There is, however, a process. Your going to have to call ASUS, which is a hassle until you get to a department that can actually help you, and have them e-mail you a free shipping slip along with the RMA forms. You will be without your computer for 1-2 weeks and may have your system wiped clean. I suggest you do two upgrades and make your life a hell of a lot easier. The video card seems to have a huge issue with the wires coming off of the fan connectors and the power supply unit barely cuts it. Grab yourself a 430-500 watt (high rated!) PSU and a video card in your budget (save for a GTX 660 or something) and you will be happy as hell with your system. This ~$200 upgrade will turn your rig into a true powerhouse, without breaking the bank too much.


query: what is the actually size of this full size mattress topper

pos: It's about 2" and according to many who have slept on mine it transformed the queen-size mattress (which is old but rarely used so we hated to get rid of it) that came very close to be being disposed of!!!!

pos: I didn't get the full size, but rather the California King size, but it actually fits perfectly, without being too short or skimpy in either direction. By the way, the reviews are accurate regarding the smell, but it does go away. Also, we don't get overheated on it.

pos: It's actual full size after it expands..i think they should make a topper with this medium density foam and another 2 inches of soft density on top


query: What is the size of the packaging for shipment? and weight?

pos: Around 40 pounds. The box is rather sizeable, 48x22x18. The stroller is packed assembled except for the two larger rear wheels and the trays which attach easily


query: My Electrolux Ergorapida Ultra+ will turn on, but shuts itself off after a few seconds. It has been on the charger and should be charged up.

pos: Mine did the same thing after a few months. It did not matter how long I charged it the battery simply would not hold a charge. I purchased mine at Costco, I returned it indicating that this model has a defective battery and they took it back with no problem. I think the batteries for these vacuums are simply defective.


query: can i use microsdxc card ?

pos: Yes. But please do not buy this product. It dud not work properly. I had to return it and purchase another name recorder.

pos: it would probably work but check with the manufacturer recommendation for maximum megabytes size of the card you could use


query: will it fit s5with wireless charging cover?

pos: I don't know what that means? It fits over the S5 that is out of the box. If the charging cover is extra to the unit, then no it will not. It does allow easy access to the charging port if that is what you mean.


query: Is the 31 inch crate conosidered medium sized? I have a cockapoo in a 24 inch crate and itseems too small now.

pos: I have a 42lb collie/lab mix in it now. He lays down most of the time and can turn around and all, but I'm sure I could've gone bigger. I actually brought it for a Maltese who's really small, but it was way too big... unless you want it that big, but you could fit 4 little dogs in it no problem. I'm no expert so you may want to physically look at the size in a store. Hope I helped a bit.


query: In the upper right hand corner, it says if you buy 3 it is $38.97 plus $3.99 shipping. In the description it says buy 3, get free shipping. Why?

pos: Once you have added your product and go to the payment screen the free shipping promotion is applied.


query: How often do you have to use this around your home?

pos: Hi! I use it in the early Spring when our home ants begin their annual visit. I look up on GOOGLE for "homemade ant bait recipes." This year, 2014, I used it only once! So effective. I keep it sealed up tight and store it indoors, top of my bedroom closet. Kept this way I think it is good indefinitely. I love this purchase.

pos: I have used this ONCE about a year and a half ago. I've not seen roaches, ants or silverfish, this stuff works.


query: That watch use sim, micro or nano sim. Thanks

pos: standard sim size the big one but if your sim is micro you can just buy a micro sim adapter


query: Does it stay in place?

pos: Yes, very well, I have it on an adjustable Sleep Number bed (you can raise the head and feet), and it stays put.

pos: the skirt is large enough for the mattress I have it on & has good elastic so I am having no trouble with it staying in place. Since I have it on a child's bed, I also have a thin mattress pad & a sheet on top of it to keep it cleaner since he sneaks food in bed. comfy


query: When i make these ice balls i notice a white line INSIDE The ice ball everytime. like its about to crack in half? how to avoid plze

pos: I have the same issue, I tried to use cold water, tap water, filtered water same results. Let me know if you get an answer.Christophe

pos: I tried filling it just short of the top allowing for expansion. However it still creates the split line. Dont think it is avoidable.


query: The Ipad doesnt support a bluetooth microphone. How does the microphone/speakerphone part of this product work with an IPAD ?

pos: Have not used that feature yet as I bought the pair to use when catching up on Masterpiece Theater & HBO. If you call the iHome company they are very helpful. I assume you have already mated the speakers to your iPad, perhaps you must also mate your iPhone to the iHome also, then push the button on the far right. My first speakers went dead but Amazon replaced them and I have not had any more problems. They are excellent for the price. Good luck.


query: What kind of batts needed for the remote?

pos: watch batteries. I not sure of the size without looking @ the battery or paperwork that came with the box. Sorry I could not provide exact details...

pos: This was a gift for someone else. My guess would be (since they offer to sell them with the set) would be the button batteries. Hope this helped!


query: Chlorox spray hand sanitizer-2 oz Please tell me asap how many bottles are in one package - this info should be listed! I need to know so I can order!

pos: There is only one bottle per package. Just change the quantity to how many you want if you want more than one. Their really small, btw!

pos: In my package of JUST the 2oz I received one. I later ordered the 3 larger bottles and refill the 2 oz.

pos: Just one. Very small bottle. If you buy the large 16oz bottle, it does not come with a pump as shown, so use it to refill your tiny spray bottle.

pos: The bottles I ordered were each 16.9 fl oz (500mg), but they come in different sizes.


query: Does this phone require a data plan?

pos: Whether or not the phone will require a data plan is up to your Carrier, we recommend contacting your Carrier and making sure with them if they require a data plan.

pos: No. I understand it handles data well, but I don't text or e-mail from phone. It is one of the last non-smart phones, but has lots of touch screen and advanced features. It has "only" 3 main screens, but that's 2-1/2 more than I use. You can move icons you don't use to "the end" and only see the ones you need. I'm not too hapy with the way it interacts with my Motorola bluetooth earpiece, but it's minor annoyance. If you're lookiing to stave off HAVING to go to a smart phone, this is a good upgrade from basic/flip type.

pos: We apologize for the delay in responding. No this phone definitely does not require a data plan. I have it myself so I know for sure. Thank you for your interest.Clayton Recellulartoo


query: I see three different radios with the same model HX280 one says vhf tranceiver, the second sayd vhf radio and the last vhf communications.

pos: The HX280S is a receiver/transmitter, great little radio for the money and the batteries last a very long time. I haven't had to transmit any calls yet but it does have a good range, I live in Jacksonville, FL and have picked up Coast Guard calls as far away as Savannah Georgia. We kayak a lot and this is a very good safety item to carry in my dry bag, almost never go out without a VHF radio for added protection.

pos: They are all one and the same, a VHF radio for receiving and transmitting. Just slightly different description


query: Can de kennel be unarmed? thanks

pos: If you mean taken apart it the top half comes off along with door cutting height down in half


query: how much does this case weigh

pos: Not sure how accurate I am but I'd guess more or less than a pound without the iPad and a few pounds with the ipad

pos: I don't know the exact weight, but it is not heavy at all. Does not add much, if any weight to the iPad itself. I absolutley love this case. Hope this helps.


query: Come with a star nut and spacers?

pos: Star nut yes. Spacers no, not that fit what I needed anyway. Amazon has spacers pretty cheap though.

pos: Yes and yes. I bought a separate star nut before getting this headset and now I have an extra. The spaces are what you can see in the image and you can remove them if you want it shorter. If you need it taller you'd have to get extras separately.


query: I want to use light to place on my lawn as a spotlight for a decorative yard sign , what else do i need to purchase to complete the installment?

pos: You will need a 12 volt transformer to provide power for the light. I bought a Moonrays transformer. The 8 watt light will be plenty light for a landscape sign. We bought 6 of these to project on the house and six four watt lights to shine up in trees. Your transformer needs to have enough wattage to cover the power demand of the sum of the lights.

pos: You will need a low voltage lighting transformer (http://www.amazon.com/Intermatic-ML44T-Voltage-Lighting-Transformer/dp/B0002YTPLY/ref=pd_sim_hi_31?ie=UTF8&refRID=0K2K0MVT28WZ7426ZJ1K) and cable (http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-GL22131-Voltage-50-Foot-Landscape/dp/B00378K8WC/ref=pd_bxgy_hi_text_y) Links provided are only examples. If you plan to add more lights around your house, get a transformer large enough to handle them. Also, cable comes in different guages and should be selected to handle all the power the transformer is rated for.

pos: You will need a 12 volt transformer and low voltage cable. The size of the transformer depends on how many lights you are using and their combined wattage. If you are using LED lights a 44 watt transformer will be sufficient. The transformer is plugged into an electrical outlet. You will need sufficient low voltage cable to cover the distance from the transformer to the light placement.

pos: You need a transformer & wire from transformer to light. Also 110v power source for transfomer.

pos: You will need a low voltage lighting transformer (http://www.amazon.com/Intermatic-ML44T-Voltage-Lighting-Transformer/dp/B0002YTPLY/ref=pd_sim_hi_31?ie=UTF8&refRID;=0K2K0MVT28WZ7426ZJ1K) and cable (http://www.amazon.com/Paradise-GL22131-Voltage-50-Foot-Landscape/dp/B00378K8WC/ref=pd_bxgy_hi_text_y)Links provided are only examples. If you plan to add more lights around your house, get a transformer large enough to handle them.

query: Hello i need buy a cap for my vornado evaporative humidifier, i lost after i cleaning, i cant found on line Amazon

pos: I don't have a booklet for parts, but I went to www.vornado.com and they have a live chat option and others. I bet if you go there and chat with a representative, they will be able to help you. Good luck.

pos: sorry about late response email problems- Call vornado customer service if within 5 years of purchase a new one will be sent if you tell them it was leaking. Ours sprung a major leak in valve and let the whole tank drain within 1 hour.


query: Is there sufficient height between the weight carriage and our legs?

pos: Yes, but this is much better used as a tricep pressdown machine opposed to a lat pulldown. There is nothing to hold your legs and bodyweight down, so you will be pulled up if you use enough weight when doing lat pulldowns. It's excellent for tricep pressdowns.


query: I want to start using a barcode scanner for my business, do I need to also by software for this if I only need to ring up purchases without inventory

pos: If you do not need to keep inventory, this register will work well for you. If you want to divide up your goods sold into different 'departments', then you must first create those directly with the register's keyboard and display. This is also where you would set up your 'taxable and non-taxable'. When you are ready to start selling, you simply scan the item, and it will tell you that the item is 'unknown'. You then give it a department number and an item price. If you want to give the item a name or description, you have to come back to it after the initial item scan setup is done. It is a little tedious, but no additional software or computer is really needed... If you do not need to keep inventory, this register will work well for you.

query: Why does it say the price is 32 and then when you order it the price is 54?

pos: I am not sure why your screen shows $32. Mine shows $54 but I currently have it listed for $59


query: What is the brand name of this composter, please?

pos: It is www.YimbyHomeAnd Garden.com. Sturdy construction. Best composter we have ever owned.


query: One person indicated that the picture above is incorrect??? What I'm seeing looks good to me, but I wouldn't want to get something else.

pos: Mine was delivered today and differs from the Amazon pic. I received the model shown on Porter Cable's site @ http://www.portercable.com/Products/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=24407

pos: This is the one I got. I agree with the posters who comment on the so called dust collection. It doesn't quite work and that's why I cut the whole thing off on the band saw. I bought this primarily to sand drawer box's. The whole dust "tube" sticks out too far for my liking and made getting into corners too time consuming. I got tired of turning the sander around so off went the "tube". The paper hold down clip is pretty strong and prevents the paper from dancing around the soft sanding pad. All in all, for the price...I think its a good sander.


query: WIll this battery fit/work with a Traxxas 1/16 E-REVO VXL Brushless RC? And how long will a Traxxas 2932 EZ-Peak 2 Amp AC Fast Charger charge it?

pos: Yes the battery is fine for that car, It will take around 8-16 hours with that 2 amp charger!


query: I cannot update my software version using OTA. Can you help?

pos: Once you go to the OTA updater you click on the app you wish to update from your choices. From there the app updates. If that isn't the case, I advise you look to YouTube for help or check out the XBMC forum for help.

pos: i have the same problem, that i keep contact them to solve it but no one has offer to call me, just silly emails how to fix it that make no sense to the averagepeople. i have spend about 70 hours with a professional computer wiz and can not figure out.(it work for 2 months) this is the 3 times that my XBMCJUST VANISH FROM THE SCREEN..(I cannot update my software version using OTA)I had enough with that Box. to bad cause is a good idea. this Box does not working good. they (Matricom) need to redesign and then sell it..that my opinion

pos: my friend my opinion is time to junk it ..i have spend lots of precious time on this box No More..


query: sooooo.,.... I cannot use this sprint phone on a carrier like Kajeet which uses sprint phones??

pos: I use "Ting". It is a non-contractual phone service that piggy backs on the sprint network and runs about $25 a month.


query: Will this adapter work with an android phone?

pos: Yes, I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII and it works flawlessly from the get go. Really an excellent product, just need to buy a square power adapt. cheap black one At Walmarts around 5$ to secure a/c power all time.Enjoy. I highly recommended it to my friends and family. M.Côté, Beautiful Montréal, Québec, Canada.

pos: Yes, works great! I use mine at work all day. I can't beleave the batt life. Should get a coupler for it too, I fine I'm plugging male head phone jack to another a lot.


query: hi does the EIM need to be connected to the C line too? The instructions do not say so but then how is it powered?

pos: Yes, the EIM is wired to the furnace just like a traditional thermostat - at least five wires, two for power and ground, plus heat, cool and fan (more for heat pump, etc.). Only two wires run from the EIM to the display on the wall in the living space to provide power and ground.


query: Apple macbook pro i5(2.53) or i7: Does anyone know how big the difference between the i5 (2.53GHz) and the i7?

pos: Since you plan on keeping it a long time (more than 5 years), it might be best to get the i7. However the difference between them does not appear to be significant. I too am about to buy a Pro. I was gonna get the i7 but after watching countless Youtube videos and reading reviews about it I decided paying $400 more from the 2.4 ghz i5 was not worth the miniscule bump in power. From what I gather on youtube, the 2.4ghz is capable of playing all current games on high or close to high settings (not extremely high though). I've seen videos of people playing everything from Modern Warfare 2 to Mass Effect 2 to Crysis with relative ease. I've also seen a video of someone testing how capable the i5 was at multitasking by running multiple programs at the same time. He had 3 VMware windows open + itunes + email + Dreamweaver and a few others open and it ran very smoothly. If you are planing on keeping your Pro for at least 10 years (not impossible) then you may as well get the i7. If like me you predict you might upgrade in 5 years or so, then I would get the 2.4 ghz i5. The difference between that and the i7 is rather small and not worth the extra $400. Check out this video for more info: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0-l37pgqa0 In case the link isn't working just go to Youtube and type in "2.4 GHz Core i5 or Core i7 2.66 GHz MacBook Pro". Also, according to this review, the 2.4 ghz i5 is faster than the 2.8 ghz mid 2009 macbook pro: www.macworld.com/article/150146/2010/04/15inch_macbookpro_corei5i7.html


query: when the bottle is on its side or even nipple downward, does it leak/drip?

pos: There's a round plastic insert that goes over the top of the bottle (between the bottle part and the nipple) that keeps it from leaking. If you don't use the insert, it does leak.


query: How far does the table invert? The video doesn't show a full inversion. Is this a sturdy unit? I'm 200lbs.

pos: The way I have set mine up, it inverts back approximately 45%. It does seem fairly sturdy, once you get it together according to the instructions, and mine shows a "250 LB maximum" for the weight limit, so 200 lbs. should be fine.

pos: It does a full inversion and it is very sturdy. It is for a max of 250 lbs. I was 197 when I started using it and was no problem whatsoever. I love having the extra set of handles...easier to pull yourself up. If I had it to do over again, I would buy this machine!


query: Does it have a lit background in the keyboard as other HP Envy's have? YES...HP says it has a "BrightView LED-backlit display".

pos: I am not sure what the others are like but I don't notice any background light on the keyboard itself. The "HP" lights up on the back of the screen and that is about it.

pos: No. Ours does not and that is the one thing we do miss. Our previous Dell did have a backlit keyboard and we really liked it, but this laptop has a much better resolution and watching movies on it is great.

pos: I am not familiar with other models, but yes, a soft blue light is just visible under the keyboard.

pos: I'm not sure exactly what your asking but if you mean that the keyboard is lit up then my answer is no it's not.

pos: The keyboard is NOT backlit...I would have liked that. The screen can be bright eough that you don't need that feature in most cases.


query: I have had this unit for a year and the charge has gone missing. Does anyone know where you can get another? Can't find one.

pos: contact Gardena in Toronto, Canada.http://www.gardena.com/ca/en/support/contact-gardena/generic-contact-form/

pos: I would contact the company's customer service. I'll bet they can help you. And keep looking for your original one! It says Gardena on the charger.


query: Does the case come with insurance in case the phone is in the case and still breaks the screen after being dropped?

pos: Not that I am aware of. It is a nice battery case and will provide some protection.


query: can I get keys for mine I have two with matching keys 5/8 square with covers 18000 lbs

pos: Is your question that you want 2 units with matching keys? I would suggest you wait till the company responds to that.


query: Is the table black or cappucino?

pos: According to fed ex my package is still not shipped. I was supposed to have recieve it on the 16th at the latest. DO NOT BUY.

pos: It is so very dark brown that the degrees of difference from black are minimal. You can paint it if you require a true black. Personally, I think it is a rich and lovely color and it goes well with the black in my home without looking out of place.


query: Does it include China map?or can I change to China map?

pos: It gives location/ grids anywhere in the world based off of where ever you are, it just depends on the grid system you'd like to use. Hope this was helpful


query: will it take a 9099battery

pos: All of the 18 volt Dewalt batteries are interchangeable. We have changed over to the 9181 (lithium ion) and you have to use the new charger. We still charge the old batteries (9098 and 9099) in the new charger. The money is in the batteries so we have retained the Dewalt line for work. The tool is very handy for anything less than an inch socket. Be careful using it on the smaller bolts since it can strip out the threads.

pos: Yes, it will take all 18 Volt DEWALT batteries, regular and low-profile. This is a great tool and a real workhorse. I also bought the adapters so that I can use 3/8" and 1/4" in sockets with it. I love DEWALT tools and have several and all of them are 18 volt and the batteries are all interchangeable which I really like, and I wouldn't buy anything else!

pos: Yeah dude, they fit any tool in the 18 volt line up...just buy it,I love this impact wrench like my own child


query: Could you please tell me if this Router will work in Australia or does it require a power converter?

pos: Dave, I really don't know, festool is a German made tool and for them to be able to reach the world with their product I would think they would have the answer for you on their web site. However I can tell you I will never use another kind of tool other than festool. They are the best! Good luck

pos: I image searched Australia power sockets and, at least the US version I have, will need an adapter. Preferably grounded. However the power cords on the Festools do detach, maybe you can get an Australian power cord?


query: Does this fit the Lotus mini crib?

pos: It does not fit my mini crib well, after a couple washings. But, ours is not a lotus. It seems like they would be more appropriate for a pack & play.


query: How fast from refridgerated dogs until they are ready to serve?

pos: I wouldn't waste money on this product! Top fits 4 hotdogs & only 2 buns at a time. We ended up giving this to my nephew. Comparable to the easy bake oven.

pos: From fridge to plate is 15 minutes, I use Hebrew franks. The bun warmer is so so and the timer broke on mine the 3rd time I used it. It still cooks I use the clock to cook with.

pos: It only took about 25 minutes. Makes really good hot dogs!! I'm very pleased with it.

pos: I love my hot dog roller! It takes between 15 and 20 minutes for my hot dogs to reach where I like them.

pos: I love to use ballpark Angus franks the best taste for me.I like mine well done usually takes 20mins.


query: How do these do compared to x-acto brand #11?

pos: I just got them in the mail a little over a week ago and I tried two so far and they seem to be as good if not better as X-acto's version. I have always just bought X-acto's brand. But this is a 100 count and a awesome price. I really like them.

pos: I have found that they last just as long as X-Acto #11s for what I use them for (cutting paper of various thickness for decoupage). I cannot vouch for how long they last against something harder like plastic or wood but if you are cutting paper or thin cardboard, they are well worth it!

pos: They have fit great, and it stays sharp just as long as the expensive exacto brand

pos: Just ordered the x-acto brand to replace the techi-edge ones that I just returned. It's MUCH better (which I knew because I've used x-acto blades before). I guess you get what you pay for right?


query: Is it worth it after the two firmware updates ? Anyone has any insight on this ?

pos: For the price of middle of the road P&S price, you get a fantastically capable high-end P&S camera. The image quality of this camera was never in question, just check with various photo gear sites. It was the slow RAW write time and focusing inconsistency that caused this camera to get bad reviews. The firmware update effectively corrects these problems. Only thing lacking about this camera is 1080HD video capability that some of the newer and even cheaper P&S cameras have.


query: This is my first day using this product and my teeth have splotches of white, but aren't white all over. Normal? Does it go away with continuous use?

pos: You can spread the solution evenly over the surface of your teeth with a Qtip to help get a more even whitening effect.

pos: the same thing happened to me. im going to try the q-tip trick tomorrow and hope that it works

pos: I did not experience this, but I used the q-tip technique to evenly spread the gel over my teeth. I highly recommend doing that!


query: Hello, this product got high reviews on Amazon but has disappeared. Please explain why? Thank you.

pos: It has not disappeared. I just ordered it beginning of July. Maybe it was temporarily out of stock.


query: can it handle gaming?

pos: My wife has some games, but mostly music, word processing and email. My impression is it was built for use in an office.

pos: my son plays games on it. he downloads games from the internet but I don't know about any other way

pos: unfortunally i have to return computer because was very slow,freeses,glitches and just to read 13 emails took me one hour and half, did not try games, had response from seller and he offer me to upgrade at his cost, but i had to send computer to him under my expense, and i decided to do it but for good. i hope it helps this response.


query: will this work in a 2010 silverado with limited slip or do ya need the limited slip additive?

pos: I did the research on this for my Dodge 2500, and no you do not need the limited slip modifier. If at some time you start hearing a whine from your rear end, you can add it, but it is not needed.

pos: What I have learned is that no limited slip additive is needed for lucas gear oil. I put this gear oil in 3 different vehicles front and rear differentials without any additives and they are working fine.

pos: I use this with additive in my Dodge Power Wagon with limited slip and electric lockers. I won't say this would not provide protection without additive but without additive my truck had a "hesitation" on initial acceleration from a stop. When additive is used the hesitation disappears. My 2 cents, for what it's worth.

pos: Lucas gear oil and other synthetic gear oil's due not require an additional additive. I run Lucas gear oil in the gear box and non-slip rear end of my 2012 Mustang GT without any additional additives. The stuff works!


query: How would you integrate a subwoofer into the system along with these speakers if your source just has RCA outputs and a line-out as 3.5mm?

pos: Can't answer that .. we are using those speakers connected to iMac ... not using any thing else with them.

pos: Dear Ian,Thank you for your question. The A2+ Premium has added a 3.5mmm variable output connection. Simply using a standard iPod connection cable (3.5mm to RCA left/right) will allow you to connect to a powered subwoofer. Please let me know if I can answer any additional questions for you!Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

pos: Howdy! 8) I can't find any info on this site or HP's site about manual feeds for this printer. I do some printing on fine art metals and need to hand feed the metal paper (usually through a slot in the back) so it doesn't bend. Usually when your printer feeds from a paper tray, it grabs the paper and bends it up, into and through the printer. But fine art metals don't bend so they can't feed through the auto/paper tray. Does anyone know if there's a manual feed option on the B8550 that would keep the paper flat?

pos: I'm really unhappy with this printer which uses an incredible amount of ink. I would not use it for anything other than a large paperweight. Haven't tried printing 13x9 -- good luck with that. The Epson and Canon inkjets I've purchased for my workplace have proved to be excellent value compared to this.

pos: No Unfortunately. I now have a new HP paperweight and am going to go Epson for my large formats.

pos: Consumer Reports from May/June 2009 says it prints a 4x6 color print at 1 page per minute


query: I have a 12 volt battery on a John Deere D series lawn tracker. will this work on it?

pos: Yes, I have 12 homes in Arizona that leave their cars any where from 3 to 6 months without driving them. The batteries stay charged over that period. I also use them on batteries in gas golf carts.

pos: the box reads '6v / 12v auto detection; ideal for maintaining motorcycle, car & marine batteries'. we use it for our travel trailer battery. box also reads 'connects in seconds w/ quick connect harness; microprocessor controlled; reverse hook-up protection; accessories included' 'maintains your battery at the optimal charge - for quick use after storage'

pos: I bought this charger because it charges ALL normal batteries 6 volt , 12 volt car , truck, motorcycle big and small tractors . Being a 1.5 amp charger it could take awhile to fully charge a low charged battery .

pos: yes it detects whether its a 6 volt or 12 volt but this is a floating charger works best when the battery is in storage ( during winter months )


query: Is it safe to use on silver spoons and forks? I n other words, is it safe to use on utensils used for food??

pos: I am sorry that I cannot answer this since I have not used it on utensils for food.


query: How secure is this key safe from tools?

pos: From a security standpoint the box is not very secure. I used a Screwdriver and a Hammer and it took 45 Seconds to wedged open the door. From a key combination it is also not very secure because the combination does not have to be entered in any specific order as long as the numbers that you chose are punched in the door will open which decreases the amount of tried needed to get in!

pos: It seems pretty secure, but like anything I'm sure if you really work that you could break in. That goes without saying, you could break into a car house as well. I think for it's purpose, it's a pretty good level of security.

pos: I haven't tried to break into it, but it feels VERY secure. It is a solid metal piece of hardware. Even if someone were to pry if off of the house I doubt they could open it. Hope this helps.

pos: My key safe was put on the house by the contractor in "out of view" area, it came with very long screws that was put into the door jam. I also bought the Slimline Weather cover for the Keysafe to help protect it from the weather, cold winter temps, freezing rains and snows. The weather cover makes it not look like a Keysafe and someone could pass it by. If you live in a cold weather climate by the weather cover. The Keysafe is very sturdy and not flimsily made.

pos: I have had this key safe on my house for many years as my teenage son uses it to enter and exit the house (he is always losing his keys). The box is little but is made out of a very heavy and sturdy metal. Even if someone were to get to box off of the wall they would still not have access to the keys inside. Getting into the box would take great effort and time (and I'm still not sure that it would open).

pos: Extremely secure, which is what I like about it. Attachment to a surface can only be made with the box completely open. Once it's closed, that's it, the screws are completely inaccessible, and the metals and mechanism seem just about impervious to attack. These things are tough. I've had them at three houses. Love them.


query: Does this cart handle well over bad sidewalks and roads? It will be taken about two miles over bad roads and sidewalks once every week.

pos: I would say yes. I bought it primarily because the wheels are a larger diameter than others I looked at. I have been very pleased with he cart which is my winter mode of transporting items from the store.


query: Will this battery work for a Polaris sportmans 500 1997

pos: Hi Nicole, I don't know what a Polaris is. If the battery specified for your machine is a 14 ah (amp hour) battery, it may. 'bs' means the + teminal is on the left when the battery is placed so both teminals are nearest you. Ytx means it's an AGM (acid gel matrix) battery. You will also be able to search the size ( height, width & length) of the battery to make sure you've got the correct one. Hope this helps, Cheers, Rick Covello

pos: It fits both my 1999 Polaris atvs, 1997 should use the same . I've had great luck so far with this.battery


query: what does the package include?

pos: It includes the speaker, audio cable to connect directly to an MP3 or other non-Bluetooth device, a power cord, that charges the lithium ion battery, and easy instructions for making the connections.

pos: It was the speaker, a 3.5mm aux cable, and a usb charging cable without the outlet adapter.

pos: Speaker, canvas bag, USB charging cable, and AUX input cable (in case your device is not bluetooth compatible).


query: Does it make a buzzing sound to warn that you are pressing too hard?

pos: Not that I am aware. You should hear and feel the brush change its vibration to tell you to go to the next section of your mouth.


query: What product improvements were made regarding the 30% price increase? (Gun Belt Clip For Use With Ruger LC9 RH has increased from $20.25 to $29.95)

pos: If the clip isn't tightened all the way.when you cocktail it and go to shoot.you'll he get nothing on the first pull.I've tried it loose and tight as can be.tightening it seems to address the issue of malfunction on the first trigger pull.Where the issue is there's no tension and nothing happens.The second pull you'll get tension and fine function.

pos: The issue of price increases.I imagine supply and demand or just not much profit margin before.sorry last answer was to a different comment.

pos: Demand was outpacing supply. So they raised the price to decrease the demand. ECON 101It's working for me, they can keep it. No way I'm paying 30 bucks for this.

pos: I don't know, nothing indicated on the packaging it was a new improved version and I paid the lessor amount!

pos: None. It has to be the positive reviews and that the vendor thinks it can get a new asking price. It's the same thin metal clip and recessed pin with screw. I comment on the price in my review.


query: what "Scale" is this Toy?

pos: Every Bruder toy I've ever seen has said that it's 1:16 scale. The Bruder catalog lists this one as 12.2 inches long.

pos: I don't know about actual scale but it is big. Probably a foot long and eight inches tall. Hope this helps.

pos: Scale I'm not a good judge of that - I'd say size wise it's about 12 inches by 8 inches high.

pos: I don't know the exact scale, but if I had to guess I'd say it's about 1:32. Just look at the dimensions listed and figure that's the box size, so the product is going to be a little smaller.

pos: The box says the Jeep's scale is 1:16. A lot of scale model vehicles have limited legroom, but this Jeep can accommodate adult and child-size Lundby dolls in both front and rear. It seats four adults nicely, or you can squeeze a pet in with a couple kids in the back seat. Lundby scale is 1:18. BTW the 3-year-old boy my daughter babysits loves this toy and goes straight to it whenever he comes over. The top comes off, the doors open, the engine block has a piece that holds the hood open, the tires feel like rubber, the spare comes off, and the AWD suspension is very lifelike. Highly recommend it. The box says the Jeep's scale is 1:16. A lot of scale model vehicles have limited legroom, but this Jeep can accommodate adult and child-size Lundby dolls in both front and rear.

query: Can this make julienne strips?

pos: No, the largest slicer did a good job slicing apples, everything else I tried on the other blades was a failure. My mandolin does a great job making julienne strips.

pos: No! You need a mandolin for that. Or better yet, get a good sharp chef's knife, learn how to keep it sharp and watch a YouTube video or two. It's pretty easy.

pos: Sorry, no. The shredder cone makes nice long strips of asiago or parmesan, and carrots or zucchini, but these are not really julienne. KitchenAid did have a Food Processor for the stand mixer that has a julienne blade and works well for juliernne strips (and better than the cone slicer for potato gratin because slices are flat). Otherwise, the mandoline is fastest.


query: kind of tight do these stretch out

pos: I got my wet on a rainy day and they did stretch a little around the toe. They are very comfortable now.

pos: I have tried to stretch on shoe stretchers but it didn't work. I bought two sizes and both were tight. The shoe in the larger size seems to get a little bit better after wearing for a while but still tight.

pos: A little, mine have only been worn three times, they seem to stretch the more you wear them.

pos: Do not know as I returned them because they were too tight not a little tight.

pos: I've been wearing these sandals for over a month and they are still kind of tight. they don't seem to have stretched out at all. not as comfortable as the last pair by any means

pos: I didn't think they would stretch enough for me. They aren't leather and the stitching was well done. The shoes seemed well made and the material didn't seem like it would wear out easily. If you are able to go up a size, it might help? Not sure! Columbia makes gear for the outdoors so I can see why these are made to support you while walking. I really wish they had fit me! Hope this helps!

pos: Well, one of the many things I have loved about these shoes is the fact that they don't change in size, at all. So, sadly, I am going to have to say "no" to your question. Sorry that this is probably not the answer you were looking for.

pos: yes! I hope you like them as much as I do. I could walk for miles in them! :)

pos: Hopeful that they will stretch a bit; I have high arches and foot was not going into sandal easily. The sandal is made nicely and when walking comfortable; and, if I can use the stretcher enough, maybe I can work it out so that I can wear then regularly without stopping the blood blow..

pos: It will definitely work with your laptop. Regarding the printer it depends whether it has either wifi connection or Ethernet connection (network cable).

pos: It will work with any computer that has a wireless interface. All laptops do. It should work with the printer also.

pos: No it works with all T-Mobile, Verizon,at&t it works with whatever plan u have

query: Never used these before...need to know if onlly one plug end. Making a craft so do not want a plug on each end. No battery operated are they?

pos: These lights have an additional plug on the top of the outlet. They aren't battery operated, they are electric and I like that they don't have the yellow tint when plugged in . The color is more towards a blue tint in my opinion.


query: As we all know silica fiber in the canary seed hull has been linked to esophagus cancer, Is this 100% silica fiber free. Need to be sure before I Orde

pos: Who knows? I don't see a whole lot of canaries dieing of cancer. I think if you eat and drink excessively you will finally die also. The benefits of the alpiste milk far outweights the risk.

pos: Yes is 100 % silica fiber free but you have to specify in your order that is for human consumption.


query: does game include racks for dominos?

pos: No, But my husband made some. You can also find inexpensive racks on the internet. Great game we love it. If you buy the game, this one is best in our opinion because the dominoes are smaller and they have actual numbers on them instead of just dots.

pos: I would hope so my bun loved them. I haven't read nowhere that says to avoid and my buns is fine after consuming this bag and 2 other ones as a treat of course. Hope this helps


query: Are the fruit and veggies hollow? I have a childcare and need something that will last.

pos: All but the carrot are hollow. They are of a good quality...not flimsy. We couldn't be more pleased.

pos: This will do the trick! These are great. This set is excellent for a wide variety they also sell a new sprouts classroom set that may interest you

pos: Yes, but they're much more durable and well made then other plastic foods I've purchased elsewhere.

pos: They are hallow, but not squishy. They are good quality. My son has chewed on a few and they still look brand new

pos: They are very sturdy. I use them in my preschool classroom with four year olds. I also leave them out at play time and they are holding up magnificently.


query: The description at the top says 15 loops and below says 18. Does anyone know?

pos: I'm trying to think off the top of my head since mine is burried in a backpack. I feel like 15 is more accurate. I know there are a lot. They run all around the edge and several down the centel to make an A-frame.


query: What type of charger does it use? Micro USB like all Android phones?

pos: I am sorry but I have no idea. I purchased as a gift for someone I was dating over a year ago. I haven't had contact with him since July 1, 2013.

pos: Yes, it uses a standard micro USB connector. My cell phone charger cable works fine.


query: I am wondering if the case has an attached plastic face like an otterbox, not a seprate sticker type cover

pos: Correct. The screen protector part of this case is a built in part of the case. It is not a sticker type add on.


query: can someone help me im trying to get them to sync

pos: There is a tiny hole in the back of the battery pack. Poke something into it and it will press the red button. Sync as u normally would.

pos: I only know how to sync it when the charger is not in it, I only know how to do it with batteries...

pos: Are trying to sync them with the Wii U? If so, you must press the sync button on the Wii U first, then press the sync button on the Wii mote. Hope this helps you out,happy gaming!


query: Will this work on my T5i?

pos: I'm not sure, I have the 60D which was not listed as usable for my camera but it works fine.

pos: Yes......It fits my T4i, and I think the hot shoe is the same, so it should work.

pos: To all wondering if it fios your camera body...http://www.rogueflash.com/pages/rogue-safari-camera-compatibility

pos: The Rogue Safari DSLR does not work with any connections to the camera. It merely attaches to the hot shoes and magnifies the flash from the pop-up flash on the camera. It is made of plastic. It works quite good. I used it in darkness and got a very good photo of some moose that were eating my trees. Please note, the Rogue Safari works best using at least a 100mm lens or zoom. Another person in the answers portion has listed a link. There it will describe how the Rogue Safari works. I am very impressed with it.


query: Would the switch be easy to push if you used your hands?

pos: Christopher; yes switch is easy to push with hands. Responds to light pressure, no more than any other push-button switch you may have used. Denny

pos: Yes, the button depresses very easily. I've been using this to turn on a set of speakers (that has no on/off switch) on a daily basis for ~8 months. Works great!

pos: Yes - my 1 yr old does it. It has a light so she finds it easily. Thanks, Janna


query: Does the lack of grip on the painted NBA logo and word bother you? I'd like some opinions before opening and using this ball.

pos: Sorry I can't say The ball leaked air. Only played with it once and couldn't get a feel for it


query: Will the top rack accept 1.5L bottles with wine glasses hanging?

pos: That would depend on your wine glasses. There is almost exactly a 12 inch gap between the bottom of the shelf (where the glasses hang) and the top of the first bottle rack. Some of my glasses leave plenty of room, but others wouldn't work with a larger than average bottle.

pos: Yes it will, assuming you don't have specialty glasses with extra long stems.


query: Where is it made, China or US?

pos: The bottom of the silicon sleeve says Made in USA. The company is in France.

pos: The bottle is made in France, all other components made in the USA. The company is located in Sausalito, CA.


query: I am 5'3 and 170 pounds. What size should I order??

pos: U should order large im 5'4 and 185 and ordered xl and still have some wiggle room

pos: I ordered the extra large and I am 5'11" (200 lbs at the time i bought it, now thankfully 189). It actually fits a little lose now. But I still use it and it still does the job. My best guess would be to order the large but if you are planning on using it extensively and motivated to loose weight I would order the medium. Cheers and all the best to you.

pos: I would go with a large but it depends on your body shape I'm hippy and I am 5ft 6in and I weight 180 an the large is kinda loose but it fits perfect.

pos: i usually always buy small sizes but according to the meassure table y have to order medium size, so i did and it fits great, i think if i had order a small size y would have trouble working out. follow the measure chart

pos: Don't order any size. Do your research on the sauna suit and you'll realize how useless and sometimes dangerous it is. If you want to lose weight, it's 80% diet and 20% exercise. Do the work.

pos: I am 5'7' about 160 and brought the medium it fits well but it maybe long in the Crotch. I believe you want it to be snug It works wells. My workout seem to be more productive.


query: How good is this phone for hearing impaired?

pos: I would say yes. My hearing thanks to the Army isn't that good and I can hear pretty well, but it really depends on your comfort level

pos: This phone was purchased for my daughter, when I call her I can hear her loud and clear.

pos: Hi!At first the reception was pretty bad. Not sure if it was the area I'm in or the phone, but it did get much better. Under the settings there is a sound mode that can be adjusted. You can give the phone a try and if it doesn't work, there should be a money-back guarantee time frame so you can return the device. Hope this helps.


query: Does the charging cable use a proprietary connector at the lamp base, or something universal & easily replaced by a longer generic?

pos: Just to follow up here, I was able to find a longer replacement cable very easily at Radio Shack. It's a fairly universal connector that's found on a wide variety of products.BTW I'm loving this lamp. It's awesome. I keep it in my backpack & it has been very handy to have in a variety of situations.


query: will i need 2 k&n air filters for a merc edes benz S430

pos: I think for a 2006 (or any year included in that group) S430 model has two filters.


query: I wear a Man';s size 9.5 wide, what would you recommend?

pos: Get flippers your toes slid in and buckle behind ur ankle not ones tht wrap around ur whole foot..they will give u blisters..other than that the sizes fit good

pos: My son is this shoe size (but not "wide"), and bought him size Large. He wiggled his foot in & said he has room inside.


query: Subwoofer has the bare wire connections-my new av receiver-hdmi commections. would this carry correct sound to a subwoofer attached via speaker wire?

pos: Juan is correct. Your subwoofer is probably unpowered, unless it has its own power cord. This receiver port that this connecter uses does not power the subwoofer, so you will not hear the signal through the speaker.

pos: it woudldent work becasue your subwoofer needs power (an amplified signal) and the power is carried through speaker wire, if you use this "adapter" the male lfe terminal is getting a un-amplified signal (signal with no power)


query: can this hitch to the john deere gator?

pos: The trailer has a pin with a tab on it to lock it to the pull hitch. Hope that helps.

pos: no the gator does not have a place to attach like the tractor does. I believe this was really designed for the John Deere tractor only. hope this helps

pos: Jill I am not for sure, but I would think if it has a trailor hitch it should. We connected to his tractor with the scoop on front. He loves it!


query: Would this be a good mixer for a Bakery

pos: Hi Nora. It is a good mixer for a small bakery. If you are starting out in your home etc yes it is. If you are a commercial bakery it is best to go larger.

pos: It is good for low volume. The only issue we have had is the safety switch broke. I think it was just not designed for the volume we use it.

pos: This a great product for heavy use. I cannot speak to how well it would perform in a heavy commercial application. My wife does a lot of home baking and it has performed very well for that application. We have had no trouble with it at all. She really loves it.


query: My hair usually gets caught in the groove between the brush head and the handle, pulling my hair out as I brush through. Will these brushes do that?

pos: I have had no trouble at all with this brush. It is actually the best I've ever owned.

pos: I've never had this problem. This brush is amazing...it make drying my hair so effortless. No need to tug on hair as you pull hair through while using blow dryer...almost effortless! Best brush I've ever owned to blow dry my hair.


query: I just bought a bread machine. Is this flour OK alone in a bread machine, or added to whole wheat bread flour?

pos: AP flour works just fine. I use it all the time when I don't have bread flour.


query: Does this fit SCM7809 which requires an "E"?

pos: I only know this filter works for me. You could try it and if it doesn't work, see if you can return it.


query: Is it 50 cycles and secondly what guarantee does it come with

pos: The Pentair 011018 - IntelliFlo Variable Speed Pump is a 230 volt 50/60Hz motor and it has a 1 year Limited warranty on manufacture defects. The IntelliFlo VS pump is built on a Pentiar 3HP motor with a custom propulsion end and a electronic, down-rated motor control system. The pump is designed to run under maximum power to ensure longevity of operation at low speeds and low power consumption.

pos: Motor is rated for 50/60Hz power operation and has a 1 year parts only warranty starting from date of purchase or date of installation.

pos: the guarantee is 1 year parts with a clause of safe unpacking, or water freezing inside, other acts of god plus correct installation; items which would render the guarantee invalid. the pump works great. i am happy with it's performance and energy saving status. i would buy it, knowing what i have witnessed as of now; a year later, it is a good pump. though my last pump was from the dinosaur age, so this pump is a huge step up.


query: Is this a fitted sweatshirt or semifitted or Loose? Buying for someone that would normally wear a medium in most women clothing.

pos: It is not fully semifitted, but not loose. Some middle of this two characteristic. "Slightly semifitted"


query: How large is the container?

pos: It's not real large, it's packed pretty well and the rods come in sections.

pos: It's the size of a pup tent storage bag. I easily put it in a bin in the garage

pos: It stores in a bag about 2 feet long and 8 inches in diameter. The storage bag would probably hold 2 pairs of shoes, if that gives you a mental image. Not big at all.

pos: Hi Linda, according to shipping sizes the box is 34"x9"x9" and the weight is about 15,6 lbs.

pos: Assuming you're talking about the container it arrives in, it is about 2.5 feet by 6 inches. Neatly packed and comes in its own nylon carry case once taken out of the box. If I'm incorrect and you're asking about the size of the hitting net, it is 6 feet high, 7 feet wide and probably 4 feet deep.


query: How do I purchase replacement bulbs for this particular strand of lights?

pos: When I purchased the set of lights, there were suggested additional items to purchase. I usually don't pay attention to them, (as it's another purchase or some upsell I can do without) but I decided to add 2 boxes of light bulbs with my order.

pos: they are sold on amazon and theyre pretty inexpensive, just look up G50 light bulbs and they should show up. i think they are only sold in packs of 25 but i may be wrong.

pos: Like you I could not find any. I would hope the supplier has some but they have been out for some time.


query: can you call in from an outside phone and monitor sounds?

pos: Not sure on that I looked in phone manual did not see anything regarding this feature your best option would be to contact Panasonic & ask them sorry I could not be more help have good day

pos: No, we regret to inform you this unit's remote commands do not include a monitor function. Full details of the remote commands can be found here:http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/KXTG4011-MUL.PDF#page=31

pos: You can call in from an outside phone and listen to messages but not monitor sounds, to my knowledge. The only way it picks up sounds is when you record a greeting.


query: How tight is it supposed to be? I got a 3, which is pretty tight but not circulation-stopping tight.

pos: I remember purchasing based on "size" and there was a measurement tool on their website. I would check that out first... mine is tight enough to stay on yet not so tight to inhibit circulation. http://www.bauerfeindusa.com/en/products/supports-orthoses/knee-hip-thigh/genutrain.html

pos: Please follow the size guidance in the Web site or on the back of paper box. It should be comfortable tight with good support to your knees.

pos: By the sizing chart's measurements I should have gotten a 4, but I got a 3 since I figured the material is knit and might loosen up a bit with use. The 3 fits me snug but comfortable and not restrictive at all. I think as long as you don't feel it is cutting off circulation or inhibiting your natural movement it is a good fit. If you do feel those things you might want to go a size up.

pos: Mine is just stick to my skin. I won't say it is tight as I can move freely. I have checked the official website on the size guide before I buy it. You may have a look.

pos: It is all very dependent on your own personal preference. Mine is definitely tight, but that is what I prefer so that it doesnt slip during the course of play.

pos: I wear this brace when I sleep sometimes. This brace is a compression brace and it works by reducing swelling in the joint. By reducing the swelling it reduces pain. It does also give support but I would not say thats it's main purpose. With that in mind it does not take much to reduce swelling and should not be tight. I found the longer I wore the brace the better my knees were and felt. If the brace was too tight I would not be comfortable wearing it for extended periods of time. I think a good way to judge the right pressure is.... You should not notice an obvious mark or difference in thickness of your leg above or below the brace where it ends. There should not be a bulge above or below... and even after removing there shouldnt be a noticeable mark. This brace has made a world of difference for me and actually returned my knees to a normal looking knee as the swelling in them from injuries and lymes disease. I am 45 and very athletic. I still cant run anymore but atleast I can move again and hope to run again someday. For now I cycle. Good luck! ps. I you are a guy you will probably go to tight. Men seem to believe if a little is good... Alot must be better. LOL NO NO NO!!!

pos: I use mine while doing aikido so I need the support but I also need to move freely without the brace sleeping. I guess it really depends on what your use in going to be. I need support but also need full range of motion so mine is tight but absolutely not circulation stopping. I look at this as a helping hand for my knee but not an absolute supporting structure if that makes sense. Hope this helps.


query: what are the measuremens of the denture machine?Is the machine big enough to fit a pair of denture in this?

pos: I don't know about the measurements but My son used it for his retainers and they fit, its not very big. We had it less then a year before the whole thing stop working first the uv light then the rest i contacted the company and they were not helpful at all in fact they ignored the issue all together, I would not recommend this cleaner to anyone.

pos: not the entire pair of dentures at one time. Just the lowers or the uppers. I've had mine for several years and really appreciate it

pos: It's about 3 1/2" high and 3 1/2" wide and 4" high. Should work well for dentures. I use it to clean my night teeth guard. I love it. It saves a lot of work. fr

pos: I've never used it for dentures but I use it for my retainer I got after having braces. It definitely cleans it though! It always smells clean after using it.


query: considering purchasing either this speaker system or the Leviton AEH50-BL anyone have any input? which is better? thx

pos: I am not familiar with the Leviton system..... I did 2 weeks ago purchase the Boston xs 5.1 . All I can say id for me they sound excellent ! This my first Boston speakers I usually by Energy or Bose but I thought I would try this out . I also purchased the Sony HTR -DH 750 home stereo with it . I am very happy I made this purchase. Don't forget to break in the speakers before cranking up the system . Have a treasured day !

pos: I can't speak for the Leviton AEH50, but I love this Boston system. The subwoofer is often the difference between these systems at this price point, and so far I am extremely happy with the sub.


query: will these fit on the rustler

pos: Yes, they fit the rustler. Intended for a slash, but will "fit" anything with a 12mm hex. However, when installed on an Associated truck, there is to much offset on the wheels, causing some steering/clearance issues.

pos: Yes they will just make sure you get the fronts for the front and the rears for the rear


query: Does this give your scalp a nice tingly feeling like peppermint oil does?

pos: I never used it for my scalp-but had all my life some tendencies for moderate acne--you would say probably that you do not noticed--but I did--I used it after washing my face every morning(unpleasant to eyes as it evaporates-about 5 min or so)..but was worth it-my face-skin looks fantastic--no pores no acne.....


query: Will this massager run on 110-220v (for travel), or only on 110v (USA)?

pos: It runs on 110V, so you would have to buy a converter to run it there where 220V is being used.

pos: The massager will run on 110-220v at least that is what is printed on the handle of the massager.


query: Is this the same stuff used for polishing cars etc? Thanks

pos: I would not risk damage to the clear coat. Besides, you can probably get a cheaper version at an auto supply store, that is made specifically for the degree of polishing you are looking for.

pos: This is Grade 60 cheesecloth which is a really fine mesh, so yes, you could polish a car with it. However, I believe the finer mesh of Grade 100 is what they use to polish cars. You can see me using this cheesecloth when I cooked a Turkucken recently. Search the net for "T-Roy Cooks Turducken" and you will find my video.

pos: You can use it for that, but it would be wasteful. If you want cheesecloth for polishing cars, etc., you should get industrial grade which is not as refined as Brighenti Cheesecloth. Brighenti Cheesecloth would be used primarily in the kitchen environment in handling food.

pos: Hello John, I hate answers that start, "It depends," but in this case, it really does depend on the type of car polishing you have in mind. If you are polishing a show car, and are hoping to take home the top prize, I would stick with the micro-fiber cloths made specifically for that purpose. They will leave a flawless shine with no swirls and enhance the depth of the finish. If, on the other hand, you are polishing the family vehicle that won't be subject to the extreme scrutiny of car show judges, then our grade 60 cheesecloth will do fine. Where our cheesecloth excels is in the polishing of fine wood furniture, where a slight cutting action on the wax base is desirable.

pos: My video was over the size limit. If I do another Turducken or Turkey, I'll keep your suggestion in mind. Thanks again Dale!!!!

pos: I don't believe so. But if you mean polishing, like polishing compound where you may want something a little more abrasive than cotton or microfiber, it may work well. But for a wax or something fine, it may be a little too rough. Good thought though, it hadn't occurred to me for this type of use???


query: How clear is the image? At what distance can you read a license plate with this camera under daytime conditions?

pos: Currently own 5 of these cameras. Daytime image quality is amazing, nightime image quality is very good. To read a license plate - I would say you could probably read one on a stopped vehicle at 50' They will not let you read one on a moving vehicle.

pos: My camera is about 50 ft from road and I can't see license plates. My guess is you would have to have the camera within 30 ft.

pos: The image from these cameras is clearer than any of the other SD-grade cameras we use (mostly Panasonic BB-HCM511As and similar). I have four in use at my facility and I just checked them all to see if any of them had a good angle on a license plate. Unfortunately they didn't, but based on what I've seen in the past, assuming the camera is set on its highest resolution, plates are legible at 30 feet (plus 20 feet vertical differential) or more, depending on the style of plate. Also, I have seen a few frame-grabs in which plates on a moving vehicle were legible, but it's rare.

pos: Don't waste your money on this, unless you going to record only in sd card... It's low resolution, not wide enough - old model... I got a second camera just BW IPC-HFW2100 1.3Mp 720P HD - it's POE (real brand is Dahua camera if you try to setup on your phone using IP Cam Viewer - higher resolution, wide angle, good quality.. One annoying feature is it has a delay for displaying, but you are not missing anything, just a delay.

pos: The image is fairly clear, however I would not consider it with enough resolution for license plate recognition. You may be able to make out a license plate number within 20', but the name of the state will be significantly blurred.

pos: The image is very clear, however, you will not be able to read a license plate from more than 10-20 feet. The camera does not have a zoom. I own a total of 9 camera from Sharx and the quality is very good but I have the same issues for reading a license plate as you.

pos: maybe at 30-40 feet on a clear day :-) I do like the camera tho. For what I use it for, it is perfect.

pos: maybe at 30-40 feet, on a clear day :-) I am very happy with the camera though. For what I use it for, it is perfect.


query: hi, my camera is sony a33, i am wondering to know does it fit in mine??

pos: I think it's possible it'll work....but you may find the strapping to feel loose due to how much cord is there for the standard sized DSLRs, and the smaller profile of the A33. Double check on the return policy...if it's decent from that seller, give it a shot.

pos: If your camera fits into standard tripod then this will work for you as it has same mount.

pos: Sorry, I don't own Sony A33. This one seems to fit most DSLR camera's. The base is big. If Sony A33, base is smaller comapre to Nikon D7100 or D3100 or D3200 or D5100, then don't buy this one. The base will be protruding outside of the camera profile. The thickness of the camera is important for this kind of holders. When I looked at pictures in Google, A33, seems to be a smaller profile compare to Nikon or Canon DSLR's.


query: Is this product made in the US?

pos: Don't know. U can check boxes at a store. I hope it is. I support US made too.


query: Can this be used as yogurt culture to make homemade yogurt?

pos: i don't think so. yogurt culture is very different from these probiotics. just google yogurt culture.

pos: From the little I know about making yogurt, I seriously doubt it. These are capsules. However, you might want to find someone who knows more about yogurt making than I do to answer your question.. Probably someone on the web who can help you. Hope you can find them and make some great homemade yogurt.


query: Is the 5 year extended warranty for $161 worth buying?

pos: its the same as buying any kind of insurance. if you can afford to pay a local shop 250-300 to fix anything that breaks at any given moment should something go wrong then no dont buy the extended warranty. if this is a large purchase for you - and coming up with 300 would be difficult - go ahead and get the plan. the last thing you would want to invest a lot in the tv, have something break, and not be able to afford to fix it.-CD

pos: Get the warranty at Costco.. I think it's a much better deal.. $99 bucks for 3 years after the first year being covered by Samsung..


query: Can Christmas stockings be hung on the mantle or will the heat burn them?

pos: I would not recommend hanging stockings from it. However, the artificial fire is nice during the holiday season (I already brought mine out).

pos: I PRESUME this would be ok, as the heat is driven by a fan, so no "fire" heat comes in contact with the top. That being said, we have never tested this theory, since the unit is used in our basement.

pos: The blower puts out a good amount of heat. I am not sure it would be a good idea to hang stockings from the it.

pos: When they demo these types of units, the hot air that comes out of the vents is about 400 degrees. So you risk melting synthetic fabrics (which most stockings are made from). Never put fabrics near a heat source.

pos: Don't do it Crystal! That will not only burn your stockings it will most likely start a fire. I have had this unit for a year and something popped in it yesterday. Make sure you buy the warranty like I did. Good luck. Kind regards, itsbeautiful


query: I live alone and can't reach the dry skin on my back. Does this spray upside down?

pos: Yes, it works upside down and I agree with Amy, you could use something to blend it in, a long handled scrubby of some form. Also careful to not get it on the floor! It is definitely slippery!

pos: Yes it does, but kind of makes a funny noise if you do if for very long. I like it because the low leg is difficult to reach and it makes it very quick and easy to apply on legs.

pos: Yes, I hold the can upside down all the time and have never had a problem with it spraying the same as holding it upright.

pos: Yes it does spray upside down, I have to sometimes use it that way myself. :)

pos: Yes, but you would need something to blend it in somehow. It gets sticky if not blended in. Good luck.


query: Even using RAID 1 do I still need a separate backup disk on another NAS?

pos: rbohl is right. RAID 1 will give you 2 disks that are mirrored or copied and in sync byte for byte. Please use hot swappable hard drives in RAID arrays., Seagate and Western Digital (called RED model) have disks made for NAS devices. I would go as far as looking at the website for "approved" hard disks for the NAS you purchased. If one hard drive fails, the second is the backup in a RAID 1 config. The Synology will rebuild itself once the bad hard drive is replaced with a new hard drive.

pos: The short answer is yes. To elaborate, RAID isn't a backup scheme but rather a sophisticated scheme for building in fault tolerance. In RAID 1, if one of the drives goes down (assuming a 2 drive array) the NAS system can rebuild the data from the information contained on the remaining good disk. Though there is a certain "redundancy" of the information contained in a RAID array, the repository is still treated as a single source of data--if you lose the source, you lose your data. Thus RAID isn't so much a data backup strategy as it is a hardware backup strategy. Your data is kept safe by making sure the storage hardware doesn't go down. Though RAID helps with the problem of data loss, it doesn't address the issue directly. The best way to guard your data is to have multiple repositories kept in different places. For instance, on my computer I have three data drives. One is the main data drive, and I use backup software regularly to ensure the other two always mirror the first. Beyond the local drives on my computer, there's also a NAS box in the family room that I backup to. Moreover, I also have data stored in the cloud. Services like Box, DropBox, SkyDrive, Google Drive, etc. provide a useful amount of storage space for free (anywhere from 2 to 10 GB). For data you simply can't afford to lose, there's no better place to store it than on the servers of some big information technology company like Amazon. Using this scheme I can lose two or three sources of data, yet my data isn't irretrievably lost as there are yet other sources to draw from. Compare this against a stand-alone RAID array. If the array is lost in a fire, flood, or even stolen, the data is gone for good (barring some miracle). So yes, you do need a good backup plan beyond the RAID array. Hope this helps. Michael P.

pos: No I would not think so. Raid 1 means you have two identical disks with mirrored data. If one disk fails you have an identical copy on the second disk drive.

pos: Depends! Gives you the hardware fault tolerance so long as you replace the failed disk in time - with two similar disks in the same environment, if one goes the other may not be too far behind. But it also depends on location - you need off-site backup, so if your NAS is on the same desk or in the same building as your computer, you would want to take a copy to store elsewhere at whatever interval you feel comfortable with for this (hopefully) lower risk.


query: Why $200.00 at Sams Club and $280.00 here

pos: sam's club is a whole seller and determins there prices for there customers. I have no control over there pricing and do not know why they sell for that price...i'm sure shipping is not included in that $200.00 price. Also you have to pay a fee to shop inside sams wich most likely allows them to sell at a lower price. Hope this information help! Thank you for your inquiry.

query: Do they use Sunbrella fabric?

pos: Sorry, I don't know if it is Sunbrella fabric. It seems like good quality fabric and the cushions seem like they are well made.

pos: Not sure. You would have to check their website. Mine has definitely faded, but the material comes clean very easily and the furniture is extremely comfortable. We love it.


query: what is the diameter of the actual fire pit part of this table?

pos: The pit is 23" square at the top and tapers to about 12" at the bottom. There is a lower grate that is 14" square that sits above the bottom. The depth from top to bottom is about 5.5". I hope this helps.


query: The paint has got a rather sticky feel after I left it dry for 8 hours. How to make it feel dry & smooth?

pos: A good primer coat is key for these to adhere and dry well. Also if you have some heat lamps, and whatever you are painting is okay with the heat, putting the heat lamps on them will help them dry and cure better.
