Grandkids loved them

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased for my 3 grandchildren and they loved them. I did read reviews prior to purchase which stated they run small and did shrink so I bought these 3 sizes too large for what I thought would give them a little room to grow. After the first washing they fit slightly snug! The colors are good and the cotton is a nice weight but something really should be done about the inaccurate sizing issues. Had I not read through the reviews these would not have even come close to being large enough for them and would have had to be returned making for 3 very unhappy little people.

Flashlight is bright enough

Flashlight for one of it's size is fine for the price, metal case not plastic. Headlamp is basically a throw-a-way. Cheap plastic with even cheaper elastic band which does not stay in place as the weight of the light makes it want to sag downward

Spend a bit more and get something better

Verified Purchase:Yes
The price caught my eye but there weren't any available reviews for the item so I took a chance since the speaker system I had finally shorted out after 13 years and cash is tight this time of year. I was disappointed but I have sound even if it is tinny sounding and didn't break the bank. My original set was a good one for listening to music so I was spoiled. Much smaller than expected as the photo made them appear larger.

Does the job

This was actually my second purchase of the item. Worked well enough that I purchased a second for the guest bedroom. A dedicated remote would be so much nicer but for the sale price, hard to turn down even if you have to keep your phone connected to a charger while using.

3 out of 3 returned because they were damaged

Verified Purchase:Yes
The store gladly refunded with a gift card then the gift card was used for the replacements. My points were deducted on the return and not reissued because of the gift card. Not happy about losing the purchase points or having to make an additional trip to return them but the cases are fine. Lightweight but served my needs and the colors were a nice touch for giving family photo slideshows as gifts

Kitchen necessity for frequent bread makers
on May 9, 2014
Posted by: technogrannie

Verified Purchase:Yes
Kitchenaid has always been a high-end expensive appliance brand but has the reputation of holding up while lesser brands fail. (My mother had the same stand-mixer for nearly 40 years and it was still chugging along when she gave it away) If I can get 15-20 out of this one I will be pleased.
I am an a bread enthusiast so considering my age and two wrist surgeries the kneading process was becoming difficult and tedious for me. This stand mixer itself is well built and heavy duty enough to complete this step for me. The attachments don't seem as well constructed as earlier versions but all seem to serve their intended purpose. The stainless 5 1/2 qt. bowl for the ez-lift version is somewhat disappointing as far as quality in this product's price range and I doubt it holds up to heavy use for any length of time. I guess that is why you get a replacement parts list and with it. I would highly recommend this model in any other color if you are an avid baker or entertain frequently using it several times a week. If you aren't a frequent or heavy duty user I would suggest a smaller less expensive model that doesn't take up as much counterspace.

What's great about it: Slow start and sufficient power for breadmaking
What's not so great: COLOR/"SILVER" is not even close it's actually an ugly primer grey
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have iPad 2 , iPad mini and nesseary adapters . Will this drive function with an iPad ?

You will need to have the USB port (not the charging port) and most likely the USB to USB mini adapter

This HP 27vx monitor features a large 27" HD display with fast response times and a stunning 8,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, so your Web pages, movies and games pop with bright, detailed visuals. HDMI input lets you connect a variety of HD devices.
 

What are the screen's true dimensions?

Hello,
Please tell me the screen's true vertical and horizontal dimensions. Also, is the diagonal dimension a true 27 inches? Thank you kindly.

Respectfully,
Sandra L. Goode
The actual viewing size of the screen is 13" high by 231/2" wide. Quite a nice fit for an average desk with very small frame area. I replaced an older 25" monitor and this 27" actually takes up less space on my desk. Just shy of a full 27"

Does this have a displayport?

Not sure what you mean but it has an HDMI, VGA and DVI input port on the back for various PC inputs. No sound input if you were looking to use it with a DVD player.

Is there a headphone jack somewhere on the side /back of the monitor?

NO it does not have any output ports of any kind so you would need to connect speakers or mic to your computer

Can the monitor be used on a stand

the pictures do not show the back of monitor so not sure if I can desk mount it on a arm
It would only work with its own stand, small metal bracket goes into a slot and tightens with a set screw

Is the screen glossy or matte?

glossy screen and so far good color and detail for working with photo-editing software programs so would venture to say equally fine for gaming
