Nickelodeon Dora/Diego 7 Digital Photo Frame" Review

Nickelodeon Dora/Diego 7 Digital Photo Frame
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This frame is adorable. The on line description does not do it justice, the images change by Diego swinging across the screen or Dora gliding across. My 3 year old loves it. The directions are not very clear . . .it skips about three steps to getting the SD disk to work but I eventually figured it out.

Hamilton Beach 43254 Ensemble 12-Cup Coffeemaker with Glass Carafe, Black Review

Hamilton Beach 43254 Ensemble 12-Cup Coffeemaker with Glass Carafe, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Before purchasing the HB 43254 Classic Stainless 12 cup coffee maker I read the reviews like I normally do before making any purchase. I decided to purchase this coffee maker knowing that there may be some minor issues with it - what doesn't these days? After many years of buying coffee makers I have found there is no "perfect" coffee maker that will make everyone happy. You just need to decide what is important to you and your family. That said, after about three weeks of use I found it to be exactly what I was looking for - it makes HOT coffee, the carafe DOESN'T drip and I didn't need to use a manual to set up the clock and timer! If this is what you are looking for stop reading and purchase this unit now. Enjoy the coffee maker...
For those that really need to know more before purchasing continue reading:
- This coffee maker uses basket shaped filters. So you can give your neighbor your unused cone shaped paper filters you may still have.
- The water reservoir does have a rather small opening but it is not too small like some very expensive coffee makers I have seen. Some may find it easier to use a large cup a couple of times to fill the reservoir instead of using the carafe. Either way I never needed to turn the coffee maker sideways to fill the reservoir.
- The water spout does swivel to allow you to install the filter and add coffee. You only need to move it once that is if you fill the water reservoir first. When closing the lid it will move the spout back into the proper position so you don't have to remember to do it yourself.
- I too had a defective carafe that leaked at the top between the plastic rim and glass. I called customer service, waited a few minutes, and spoke to someone in the USA. It was replaced within a few days at no charge. I sealed the original carafe until the replacement arrived.
- I never had an issue with pouring a cup of coffee using the auto pause and serve feature. Besides, how often do you really "need" to have a cup of coffee before it is done brewing? If you are that desperate, set the timer so it is done brewing before you get up in the morning.

With its sleek contemporary styling, this 12-cup coffeemaker not only looks good on the kitchen counter, but it also provides an array of convenient features. The machine's user-friendly control panel and digital display ensure ease of use, while its programmable clock/timer function allows for waking up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. A glass carafe comes included, complete with a stay-cool handle, measuring marks up the side, and a drip-free pour spout. For sneaking a quick cup of coffee midbrew, simply remove the carafe from the machine to pause the flow of coffee, then replace the carafe to continue the brewing process--a nice feature, particularly for those in a hurry for that first sip. Other highlights include a nonstick hot plate, two-hour automatic shut-off for safety and peace of mind, cord storage, and easy-to-clean removable parts. The matching Ensemble toaster, can opener, and blender can be purchased separately for a coordinated look. In black with stainless-steel accents, the coffeemaker measures approximately 11 by 8 by 14 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

OXO Good Grips Triple Timer Review

OXO Good Grips Triple Timer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We had a West Bend timer that lasted more than 15 years before it finally gave out. We got another West Bend timer to replace it, but it lasted less than two years (button failure), so we were looking for something we hoped would be better. We've been pleased with other OXO products so we thought we'd try this timer. My first impression is that feels kind of cheap, it is very light weight, which is not necessarily bad, it just doesn't feel like other OXO products we have.
The little front feet on the underside are too far back, when it's sitting on the counter and you try to push the buttons, especially the important ones like "start/stop" and "0", the unit rocks forward (this is also a function of the light weight). We find that most of the time, we have to pick it up to press the buttons. Also, on a couple of occasions, the buttons have stuck in, the button openings are a little big and the rubbery button will twist a bit and get wedged in, not a big deal but an annoyance. The timer select buttons on the side are a bit small and close together. My wife doesn't like the beep sounds it makes, but the sounds are loud enough and functional.
We like the fact that you can directly enter the time with the number buttons rather than holding down a single button while the time increments.
We've only had it a month, so time will tell how well it holds up to daily use, hopefully it will last a while, but I'm not over confident. Bottom line is that it gets the job done but I don't feel it's up to OXO standards.

This is a great clock - beautiful and fits well with my decor. The chime is pretty nice, not a cheap, tinny sound. Instructions were not clear on set-up. Took me a long time to get it set so that it would actually chime - went through the routine many times. Now that it does chime consistently, I love it! Good features are volume control and automatic night-time shut-off

Howard Miller Frenwick Quartz Wall Clock Review

Howard Miller Frenwick Quartz Wall Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For this price you would think you're getting a quality clock, but not this one. The back of the clock has a piece of cheap plywood or fiber board half way up the clock. The rest is open for where you set the time and chimes. There is a cheap plastic pendulum holder, and the time and chime setting knob is cheap plastic too. The brass pendulum is part plastic as well. Since the back of the clock is open, dust will settle in the bottom and cleaning it will be difficult. The moon phase is stamped on and it looks awful and cheap. I've seen $50.00 clocks that look and are built better then this. Save your money. Don't buy this clock.

Water Resistant AM/FM Shower Radio With Clock--WR1999-1 Review

Average Reviews:

Sounds like a $15 radio. It works, tells time, get's some stations better than others, and sounds cheap. But if I had wanted great sound, I wouldn't have spent $15. It sticks to the wall well, and the clock is accurate. I usually listen to AM talk in the morning getting ready for work. My favorite station comes in marginally well. The strongest station in the area comes in well. Not a lot of volume, but again, it serves the purpose. When I get tired of this, I'll buy a $50 bathroom radio and toss this out.

River City Clocks Chiming Regulator Wall Clock with Swinging Pendulum and Cherry Finish - 24 Inches Tall - Model # 6023C Review

River City Clocks Chiming  Regulator Wall Clock with Swinging Pendulum and Cherry Finish - 24 Inches Tall - Model # 6023C
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought this clock to replace a Howard Miller Lancaster as I didn't want to have to wind the Howard Miller every week anymore. Aesthetically, this River City looks just as beautiful as the much more expensive (4X) Howard Miller that it replaces. Another reason I prefer this clock over a key wound clock is that it keeps accurate time, given that if one services a key wound clock enough, it will keep accurate time too. I like the adjustable chime volume and the nighttime mute option. However, even with the chime volume at the lowest setting, the chimes have managed to wake a sleeping baby on another floor level once, perhaps because of its high pitch. I also like the shallower depth of this clock, which may contribute to poorer chime quality. What I do miss about the Howard Miller when compared to this River City is that the Howard Miller has more pleasant, richer and deeper chimes; the electronic chimes of this River City's sounds, well, electronic. Lastly, it's purely a matter of preference but I also miss the tick tock sounds that this clock doesn't produce.

La Crosse Technology WT-5360U Atomic Projection Alarm Clock Review

La Crosse Technology WT-5360U Atomic Projection Alarm Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Not surprisingly, I chose this clock for 3 reasons: it sets itself, it projects the time on the ceiling/wall, and it's quite inexpensive. After a needlessly painful setup (more on that later) it set its own time, and the time projected on the ceiling is easy to read with my glasses on (just barely readable w/o glasses).
The first problem I encountered was plugging the power supply into the clock. It uses a standard coaxial DC power connector that plugs into a socket on the bottom of the clock. Unfortunately, the hole through which you access the socket is not only much larger than the socket, but so much larger than the socket housing (a box containing the socket connector) that unless you have sharp eyes and carefully align the plug with the socket, the plug will slip into the gap between the socket housing and the hole in the clock case.
After getting the power connected, I left for work, and when I returned, the clock showed the correct time--only off by 3 hours. OK, so I needed to set the time zone. There are no buttons labeled "time zone", "TZ" or anything similar. A quick check of the manual (don't lose that manual!) revealed an unintuitive process for setting the time zone (typical of devices that don't have enough buttons):
1. Hold down the "Mode" button for 3 seconds. The currently selected time zone will be displayed.
2. Click the "Mode" button until your time zone appears.
3. Click the "Snooze" button.
Despite its poor design features, this clock basically works as advertised and is inexpensive. Since most of the time, you won't need to touch it, if you can read relatively dim, red 3" numbers on your ceiling, then it's probably a good choice. Just don't lose the manual!

No more patting around for the glasses to check the time after than early morning alarm. This projection clock beams huge digits, visible to the blurriest of eyes, on walls, ceilings and other smooth surfaces. Every time it's plugged in or turned on, the clock sets itself for precision time by receiving radio signals from the official US Atomic Clock. That means it also shifts automatically to and from Daylight Savings Time, so there's no more showing up to work an hour late or early twice a year. The unit also reports indoor temperatures and features an LED backlight for easy readouts without using the projection feature. The projection arm rotates for proper viewing at any angle-without rolling over. Open the eyes. Read the time. Close the eyes. An automatic focus mechanism presents clear readouts on any smooth surface. And, a perpetual calendar helps you stay on schedule. Hang it on the wall or set it up on a desk with the detachable stand. AC power adapter included.
