Long time user of Zi

Reviewer Comments: I’ve used virtually every other eye drop on the market and nothing comes close to the magic that’s inside these little bottles. I don’t know if they actually make unicorns cry and then bottle it up their tears or what the deal is, because that’s the closest thing I can imagine Zi resembling.

The other reviewers are right most eye drops are too thin, and don’t last long at all, these have a very slight thickness to the solution and it keeps your eyes moist for a long time. I like these better than the other Rohto drops since they aren’t as harsh. The others have a nice cooling effect but the initial sting isn’t worth it, in my opinion.

Cute and Sturdy!

Reviewer Comments: Got these for my daughter, and absolutely love them! In true Keen style, they’re both adorable and sturdy. They’ve gotten wet and been abused on the playground and still look great. I love the covered toe box..that’s always where kids scuff up their shoes, especially suede or nubuck ones. Even though we got pink I’ve yet to see discoloration or scuffing. yeah!!!
Great style..can be worn just as well with jeans or a dress. Very comfy, too. Seem to run slightly on the wide side but with a thicker pair of socks my daughter seems to have a perfect fit. I’ll be waiting for the “winter” version of these in her size to become available.

Incredibly happy!

Reviewer Comments: I went to a salon and payed $75 for a “dark brown” all over color. It turned out JET BLACK. I was horrified. Even my little sister said “whats on your head?”. I tried everything, using DAWN, using dandruff shampoo. Even rising my hair in scorching water. I bawled my eyes out for hours. I talked to my friend who told me to use color oops. I was so nervous to try it and i kept thinking it would come out terrible. I kept it in for 18 mintues and rinsed it out. I started getting upset when the water ran clear. But when i got out of the shower it looked AMAZING. It was dark brown with carmel highlights. I couldnt believe my old jet black hair looked like this now. IT REALLY WORKS. who ever invented this needs a big hug

Great Stroller

Reviewer Comments: This product has been great for my son. I have a VERY active, energenic 2-year-old and he loves to take his baby in his stroller EVERYWHERE. This stroller has been through the entire Phoenix Zoo, through sandy paths up Arches National Park and on top of trampolines. It’s held up very well and my son loves it!

Nice setup, especially for the $$

: I have been overall very happy with this bike, which I purchased for fast training rides with the WestPoint cycling team. The frame is extremely stiff, and the power transfer is amazing. Although the specs list a 105 crank, mine showed up full Ultegra (not complaining!). The internal cable routing is very clean looking, and overall the bike looks very nice. It doesn’t ride with any noticeable traits or characteristics–it just handles well, is quiet, and does what you tell it to. For a bike in this pricepoint, “character” would probably be a bad thing. Overall, this is just very, very neutral. Descending and climbing are both fantastic.

Cons:

-Proprietary seatpost it scary–needed a lot of carbon prep and 6(!) nm of torque to keep it seated. Plus, if it does break, you’ve got one option. No serious problems with it yet, however.

-No round tubes for clamping in a repair stand, and even attaching a standard tail light is an issue. The pics don’t show nearly how shaped this frame is (actually a better looking bike than the web would suggest).

-Semi-compact sizing. I usually ride a 58, so I bought the large. I’ve got a LOT of seatpost out (which is ok), but still had to swap to a MUCH shorter stem. It worked out fine, but I’d check the specs on GTs website (you can find this bike under the english-international link) before settling on the size.

-The Vredstein tires are a problem. Around mile 150, my front tire completely threw the bead (kevlar everywhere!). I was running exactly 100 PSI, and didn’t hit anyhting. Upon closer inspection, there is next to no casing over the bead. 10 grams heavier would have been a lot more durable.

In sum, you’re probably not going to beat this bike for the price, and I’m much more excited about it than this post might read. Nothing here was a deal-breaker for me, and I’ll probably ride this bike (a lot) for 2-3 years.

My Triplets LOVE IT!

: I bought 3 of these seats for my triplets when they were learning how to sit. I originally was going to get a bumbo, but when I saw this I thought it was a better buy! It has a snack tray and turns into a booster seat for the table, and when you have multiples you need multi-use items!!! My boys are 9 months now and we don’t even use highchairs just these seats, they love playing with the toys. SOO GLAD I BOUGHT THESE. I stack mine in a corner so the boys don’t climb all over them. They are a bit hard to clean, especially if you use them for feeding like we do, my babies will eat the teethers when they have a mouth full of food.

Wide & Stable. This baby’s a tank!

: I use this canoe fishing with just about anybody that will go with me. That goes from my 4 yr old nephew to my 92 yr old mother. She loves the seats and seat backs for the support and comfort they provide. I am no fly weight at almost 300 lbs, yet I can fish for hours on end without getting a flat butt! Try that on a flat seat. As others have said, it is a bit heavy to load solo, but well worth the extra effort. I would not choose this canoe for serious touring with long portages, but for almost any other use this is one sweet canoe. More stable than any other canoe I have ever been in including Mad River, other Old Towns, Coleman, Grumman, Lincoln and E.H. White. I love mine. If you have a small car or suv, check the width to be sure this canoe will fit your rack. It just fits a Ford Explorer rack.

Best Columbia fleece I’ve owned

: This jacket has sparked my desire for Autumn. Pouring coffee from a thermos while sitting on the edge of a cliff…this jacket is it! Unfortunately I can’t give a true account of usage, since it’s still Summer. But, to help others who are considering this jacket, I will say that this jacket will likely get more wear than either of my two North Face Windwall’s, mainly due to the 2-way arm pit zippers, and heftier feel. I believe it is at least 30% more in weight. The cut is semi-athletic, unlike the typical bulky Columbia fleece. If you often find yourself getting a size larger in, say, a cotton sweatshirt due to shrinkage, then do the same with this, because it’ll likely fit the same as if it had shrunk to your size.

Hot in Iraq

: I noticed a co-worker wearing mascara here in Iraq where we are deployed. The temperatures are over 100 degrees and I am from Florida. I was amazed that her mascara was not running or giving her a smudges below her eyes. I asked what she was wearing and she happened to have a spare package (she is wonderful and generous person; I am buying one today to gift back to her!). Because it is too hot to wear make-up right now, I will wear the mascara. I never realized that mascara alone could make me feel pretty as I wear my combat boots all day. After ten hours, there is the minor wear and tear of the mascara but I think that this is normal. So far, so good and worth trying. My sister is wearing something else right now in the southern USA; I look forward to comparing. I also like that the packaging and brush is slim. Thanks! – No raccoon eyes here!

Cristened 2 of these last weekend!

: I purchased the Olive colored ones. [...] But, I think that color is a much nicer “outdoorsy” color. I sold my 15 year old aluminum canoe to buy these kayaks. The canoe was only 75 pounds, but now too much for me to lug around these days. These Potomac kayaks are lightweight, easy to car top and honestly seem to be as good of quality than anything else I saw at Dick’s or other stores. Made in Canada. Are they white-water kayaks? Well, no, but for open water and small rivers and streams, they are just dandy! We christened them at Land Between the Lakes area in KY/TN last weekend on Kentucky Lake (see photos). My son and I explored and explored with them. A fantastic product!
