Coleman maintains its cool
I've had this cooler for about six months. I find it to be a lot classier and better made than the plastic cooler it replaced. Despite what seems like a loose lid and flimsy latch, this cooler maintains it's cool in the heat, which is the primary reason I bought it. The lid is solidly hinged. I gave it five stars because it's a good deal for the money (I paid ~$85). Though someone complained that this cooler is not bear-proof, I have to ask whether there is such a thing. I recommend this to anyone who wants to have a reliable, good-looking cooler.

classy and functional
We bought this to sit out on the porch when we have guests over (frees up space in the fridge), it's awesome!!Guests make comments about it all the time.Oh, and it keeps things cold too--definitely longer than a plastic cooler.

Really keeps things cold for a long time
We bought one of these a year ago because 1) it was really stylush and 2) because my fiance believes that the steel coolers are better than the plastic ones. And she was totally right. Ice last a LONG time in the steel cooler. I'm sure a lot of it is due to the fact that it's silver and reflects the sun and heat.

We liked it so much, we got a second one and took it with us to the Burning Man festival in the Nevada desert, where it was quite hot. The steel cooler performed great.My only slight complaint is mentioned in other reviews is that the latch is kind of wimpy. It's not gonna spill your stuff, but it can be forced open easily. I wish they sold a non child proof replacement latch.

Anyway, after a week in the desert, we STILL had a little block ice left in second cooler. Mind you we didnt' open this one as much, but I was shocked to find ice in it after a week in the black rock desert.

This cooler rocks. Give it an option for a non child proof latch and it would be unbeatable! ... Read more

Terra Cotta Birdfeeder
This Terra Cotta Bird House feeder not only emits the look and feel of nature, but is natural in it's absorption of moisture from the rain, without damaging the clay. When kept on a low lying branch it adds to the shelter of the small roof which also helps keep the seed from getting soggy.
Terra Cotta is very versatile and reselient in it's melding with the elements as part of it's purpose.
Your birds will come back time and time again for a quick treat and the squirrels will have to get their own, this time! ... Read more

Just a Swinging!
I bought this for really cheap and I cant wait until spring when I can use it!I didnt think that I wanted a rope hammock, but the price was right and now that I have it I love it and cant wait to use it outside!

Give it time
It is funny to read these review of people complaining of the hammock sagging.Of course being a cotton hammock, there is some stretch to work out of it.The first time I sat on it, I was on the ground rather quickly.However, unlike the other negative reviews, I simply retied the knots to make it tight again.Magically, the hammock stayed up, some people need to learn patience!I spent most of my summer taking a nap, and reading books on it. I recommend it to everyone.

I love mine!!!
It does stretch a little, but I weigh 190lbs, and set at the tightest links, it is heaven on earth. The stand was super simple to assemble (no screws!) and with a pillow, stress just melts away! ... Read more

Editorial Review

The sounds of nature are sweet, but the music of chirping birds, chattering squirrels, and rustling leaves is even sweeter when accompanied by Woodstock's Gregorian alto computer-tuned wind chimes. These silver chimes play medieval alto notes inspired by the Gregorian chants of Europe. Company founder Garry Kvistad has developed an advanced method of tuning used on every Woodstock chime: each tube is analyzed digitally with a microphone under the tube measuring the frequency, and cutters are instructed to remove just the right amount of material to produce the most precise tuning possible. The result is a purer, more harmonious sound. All Woodstock wind chimes are made in the USA from nonendangered hardwoods treated to endure season after season of outdoor use. Woodstock prides itself on being a socially responsible company, explaining that "through the sale of our chimes we proudly support the arts, as well as many environmental and humanitarian causes." Add a hint of Gregorian mystery to your yard or garden while contributing to the harmony of the earth. --Ariel Meadow Stallings ... Read more

• Measures 5-1/4 by 5-1/4 by 29 inches
• Precision tuned using a sophisticated digital analysis
• Lifetime tuning guarantee
• Handcrafted in the USA and weather protected

sweet sound
These chimes are wonderful!These are the first chimes I have owned that actually play a melody.It only takes a slight breeze to hear the beautiful sound.

Music For the Soul
If there is a sound that represents Heaven, this must be it!The tonal quality of these chimes is amazing, peaceful, and instantly soothing.Whether you're a collector or a first-time shopper, these chimes are a great place to start.I can't wait to get the harmonizing chimes (Soprano, Tenor, Baritone, and Little Gregorian)!

Fairy Bells
The fairies brought this for my daughter this Christmas to thank her for the lovely garden she planted for them last year. They're hanging in the tree over the garden now, waiting for spring. We've had a few warm days when we could go listen to them and they're lovely. They don't sound like typical windchimes at all. They really do sound like a band of wee folk are playing music. They definitely add another level of "reality" to her garden. ... Read more

Philips FWC780 Compact Stereo System

Editorial Review

Enjoy powerful sound, flexibility, and convenience in a small package with the Philips FWC780 mini hi-fi system with three-CD changer and dual cassette deck. This mini system outputs 240 watts total power (120 watts per channel RMS stereo), with six digital sound control settings (digital, pop, classic, rock, new age, electric) and six virtual ambiance control modes (hall, cinema, arcade, concert, disco, cyber) that enhance your listening pleasure.

The three-way bass reflex speaker system is equipped with 6.5-inch front bass radiators for greater bass reproduction, 5.25-inch woofers, 2-inch tweeters, and 1-inch piezzos, all housed in a three-way enclosure for a wider range of frequency response and deeper bass sound. Incorporated into the system is wOOx technology with three-step level control. The Philips patented wOOx technology ensures superior bass results by using a dual-suspension bass radiator and dedicated amplifier circuitry that has been specially designed to produce and handle high dynamic sound signals at very low frequencies. The three-step wOOx level control lets you set the amount by which the bass sound will be enhanced. Also integrated into the FWC780 is "Incredible Surround," a simulated surround-sound technology designed for applications with limited separation of left and right speakers, widening the stereo spatial image for broader sound from two-channel systems.

The three-CD changer with motorized drawer has multidisc play capability providing more than three hours of continuous music. The CD player plays CD-R and CD-RW discs, so you can enjoy home-recorded discs over the entire lifetime of the player. The direct-play button lets you select and play any CD in the carousel at the touch of a button, or change out the other two discs while the third one continues playing. One-touch CD synchro recording allows the cassette deck and CD player to communicate with one another to synchronize the start of a cassette recording with the start of a CD or a CD program. Repeat, random, shuffle one/all, and CD programming are standard playback features on this mini system.

Other great features are a video/auxiliary input for connection of an accessory piece, such as a DVD player, TV, or external cassette deck, and a digital AM/FM tuner with 40-station preset memory. A clock, alarm, and sleep timer are included, so you can wake up to music from your favorite CD or radio station. And the three display modes show different amounts of display on the LCD, including a night mode display that turns off most of the system's lights.

Completing the FWC780 is the design itself. Rich metallic finishings, dramatic surfacing, a large, multicolor FTD display, and an ergonomic control layout optimize the system for comfort and convenience.

The Philips FWC780 hi-fi mini system comes with a push-button remote control and a one-year warranty on parts and labor. ... Read more

I dont recommend it
I bought this Stereo here at Amazon.
Compared to my 5 year old Aiwa with almost same price.
This Stereo has a "background" noise like a computer(but not as loud) so if u listen to music very quietly you hear it.

Sound is Ok.
But Very few functions its ok if you only listen to CD otherwise look somewhere else.

Incredible sound!
It goes without saying that this is one of the most powerful compact stereo systems on the market. The sound is extremely powerful and most importantly clear! It has many important features that modify the sound, such as incredible surround, enhanced bass and numerous others! Even when you turn up the volume, the sound remains clear and powerful; this indicates a high quality product. This is without doubt the best buy I have made so far! Ironically, the price is the best part, it cost only [dollar amount]. When compared to other more expensive products, this compact stereo is by far the best, both when it comes to sound and the looks! In short, this is a high quality poduct to a low price that I strongly recommend to prospective customers.

AWESOMESOUNDANDVERYPOWERFUL
Are you looking for a stylish and POWERFUL stereo system with extrodinary BASS? Look no more, this is it, thats right the picture above this review is a great device.

When my old stereo system broke i had to search for a new stereo system as i couldnt handle not listening to any 2pac albums i had to quickly search for a new stereo system.What i was looking for was a powerful stereo system with crystal clear sound no matter how loud the volume is and it needs some heavey bass as i have alot of old school rap albums.

Well when i came across this stereo it was in my price range and i liked the looks of the system, especially the little power meter.Anyway i tried a sample on it and i was heeps surprise with the sound.I played it loud and the sound was still very clear unlike some stereos where the sound breaks up because the speakers cant handle it, well the phillips stereo can.There is two volume knobs, the normal stereo volume control and the WOOX advance technology speakers which packs alot of punch.WOOX speakers are optional, so if you want the BASS pumping just turn them on and change the level.Theres are 3 levels with the 3rd level being the most POWERFUL.

It has a 3cd changer, double tape deck, tuner(radio) and Aux(cdr/dvd).It also has ECO POWER, i have never seen this before, it is an option so you dont have to have it on but if you do it saves you energy, it plays and everything but with out the lights and display, yeah pretty AWESOME.

I did end up buying this product and i am EXTREMLY happy with it.Especially when i found out that Phillips and WOOX grouped up to be the best technology of the year(AUSTRALIA).During my search i did come across some nice stereo systems but this one topped the list and as you can see i wasnt dissapointed and i strongly doubt you will be either.
