Run all of your AA battery-powered devices with this huge 48-pack of 1.5V alkaline batteries. Mercury- and cadmium-free for worry-free usage.

I love Dynex batteries. They last as long as other standard alkaline batteries at a fraction of the price.
I just wish Best Buy in the US sold the 9V, D, and C Dynex batteries like they do in Canada.
What's great about it: value
I would recommend this to a friend!

Handsome Cabinet with Ample Storage
on August 17, 2011

I have to say as far as furniture you put together yourself goes, this is a pretty nice cabinet. It certainly feels substantial considering the price.
The capacity is great for CDs. If you choose to store anything other than CDs, be aware that you will need to lose a shelf.
The only problem I have with the cabinet is with the wheels on the doors. Adjusting them is difficult and one of the doors never lets me close it quite all the way because of it. No one would notice the small gap because of this without knowing it was there, so it's acceptable to me. The cabinet is still a great value.
What's great about it: build quality, storage space, attractive
What's not so great: you lose a shelf if you want to store any media other than CDs, wheel adjustment fickle
I would recommend this to a friend!

Keep cool with this stand fan that features 5 speed settings and oscillation to cover a wide area. Control the fan with the remote or the easy touch display. The convenient auto shut-off timer can be set to turn off the fan after 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours.

Refreshing for Sure, but Lousy Quality

The fan itself is quiet and powerful, and the included remote is nice to have.
But goodness forbid you need to move the fan to another location, because even with the strongest tightening of all column bolts, the fan will disconnect from the column and the upper column will disconnect from the base column lest you lift it up from the very bottom.
Also, the latches to secure the top fan guard to the rear guard are poorly aligned and it is impossible to properly latch all of them. If you waste any effort trying, do not expect to ever be able to dissemble the unit again.
Flaws from poor design and cheap quality do not extend to the cooling ability of the fan, so if this is your only option, it's ok for what it is.
What's great about it: Quiet, Powerful, Remote Control
What's not so great: Poor build quality due to design oversights
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
