cooltekmax says "Craftsman C3 19.2 volt Radio Controlled Racing Truck ROCKS" about Craftsman C3 19.2 volt Radio Controlled Racing Truck

cooltekmax — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 13:26:03 GMT

Craftsman C3 19.2 volt Radio Controlled Racing Truck has done it again with innovation and invention. No other tool manufacturer has a radio controlled vehicle that I can think of; ONLY CRAFTSMAN. This baby has pickup, speed, and ease of control. The transmitter is shaped like an impact drill. You control the left and right turn with a wheel attached on the right of the impact. And the forward and reverse is controlled by a trigger just like an impact driver. The more batteries you have the more hours of driving enjoyment. Have hours of endless fun with your kids. It's too bad they pulled it off the shelf from the stores I visit in Dade County but you can still get it online. Happy Driving!...

shc-zach says "Durable T-ball set, but why isn't it adjustable?" about Little Tikes TotSports T-Ball Set

shc-zach — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:44:50 GMT

My parents bought my son (their grandson) the Little Tikes TotSports T-Ball Set for his first exposure to T-Ball / Baseball.

He immediately enjoyed it (see attached picture), but my one small complaint is that it should be adjustable, like other Little Tikes products (i.e. Little Tikes TotSports Basketball Set). It's not a deal-breaker, but that would make it a five-star product.

It is durable, great value for price and a perfect first T-Ball set for kids! Yet another solid Little Tikes product. Our family loves them.

RWebster says "Very easy to use - starts right up!!" about Craftsman 30cc Gas Backpack Blower

RWebster — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 19:59:47 GMT

I am very pleased with the Craftsman backpack blower. Although I had a problem with my first one (impeller broke) the ease of use and performance is so good I got another one. The blower starts right up very easily with only one to two pulls and lasts quite awhile on a single fill up. Power is fairly impressive for it's size and it comes with a variety of nozzle options for different applications. Weight is reasonable - my wife even has used it... plus the price is reasonable compared to similar models of other manufacturers. Very pleased.

LaMargaret says "Looking for a gift in a hurry? E-Gift to the rescue!" about Sears EGift Card Many Shoes eGift Card

LaMargaret — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 21:32:22 GMT

The Many Shoes eGift Card is a great gift to give when you are A.) in a hurry B.) Cannot figure out what to buy and 3.) Women will love it!

My siste's birthday was right around the corner. I hadn't spoken to her in sooo long due to school and work, so I had totally lost touch on the things that she liked. I wanted to give her a cute blouse of shoes, but I gave away my surprise when asking her about her clothing size.

So instead of hassling over what she may or may not like and the fact that I would have to ship the gift from Orlando to Chicago, I saw an add for an E-Gift card.

I picked the cutest card design a multi-coloredshoe card and added my selected value and VAl-AM! The gift card was emailed to my sister in a matter of minutes. The printable voucher can be used in the store, over the phone and of course, on-line!

I received a text message from her on the morning of her birthday thanking me for the gift card and I didn't have to pay for shipping!

This is a neat gift for all of the...

Courtney says "I couldn't make flowers taste more delicious if I tried!" about Edible Arrangements Delicious Party Fruit Basket

Courtney — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 22:13:09 GMT

Honestly, I am not one to give out 5 stars often :) but this fruit basket was amazing. The fruit was perfectly fresh and didn't have any bruises ... and there was A LOT of fruit. The chocolate covered strawberries were a great touch and of course the first to go! After eating and stuffing myself with as much as I could, I stopped to smell the roses and really take a look at the beautiful arrangement of everything! The melons and pineapple were cut out really well in flower shapes and placed very strategically so there was never too much of one type of fruit in one area. I would for sure recommend this to anyone!!

Lory1317 says "Excellent tv" about Vizio 42 in. Class LCD Full HD (1080p) with Removable Speakers

Lory1317 — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 10:27:36 GMT

This is an excellent tv! It has very good sound and awesome picture quality. I am very happy with my purchase and would gladly buy another one. I would recommend the Vizio to anyone looking for a good tv. It plays the video games excellently. Graphics are very cool. My children claim it for their videos games. Watching regular videos are really nice so i would imagine a blue ray even better. We own several different tv brands but so far the Vizio is by far the nicest one. Grab one when they are on sale or refurbished!

ZTSsafetypoor says "7500 ZTS was a disappointment!" about Craftsman 20 hp 44 in. Deck, ZTS 7500 Zero Turn Riding Mower

ZTSsafetypoor — Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:35:29 GMT

I too purchased a 7500 ZTS with the SAME issue on jerking/jumping especially at full throttle. Front wheels come off the ground and feels like I could get bucked off. Sounds like a quality issue and something Sears needs to look at before someone gets hurt or gets whiplash. I had high expectations with Craftsman since I had a Poulan lawn tractor for years but this one was a big disappointment and would not recommend this product purely for safety issues. Please post if you have had any issues with mowers jerking/jumping!! thanks....

WJClark says "Great way to send gift to someone you don't know what to get." about K Mart Gift Card

WJClark — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 20:49:32 GMT

I was very impressed with the company calling me to make sure that the K Mart Gift card I purchased online was legit and my niece was thrilled that she could print it from her laptop and not have to wait for the mail. However, when she went to her local K Mart, they thought it was a fraud as they had never seen one from online and that included the Manager. She was purchasing $150 in merchandise and had to wait for someone to confirm that it could be printed and she was not a crook. The company needs to make sure all personnel are familiar with what they have to sell and all Managers of the store should know it. I would not do this again for online gift card printing.

ReefExplorer says "Good Only When Blade New" about Craftsman Cordless Grass Shear/Shrub Clipper Combo

ReefExplorer — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 23:07:55 GMT

I understand that this model is no longer available though I'm sure Sears parts are. The batteries were initially a weak link. After a short time of charge-recharge, they held less and less "run time". Seems latest parts batteries are better and that has mostly been solved. The blades don't cut very well; only very new, very thinrass. Thicker grass is ripped or missed; more of a crushing and not a cutting. Still have my unit and it still runs but, blades are expensive from parts so might give up all together.

ewyatt says "Excellent Washer (and beautiful)!" about Kenmore Elite HE5t 4.0 cu. ft. IEC King Size Capacity Plus Front Load Washer

ewyatt — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 15:01:24 GMT

My husband and I purchased the Kenmore Elite He5T 4.0 cu. ft. King Size Capacity Plus front load washer a few weeks ago for our new home. I am a frugal person and wanted to purchase just a regular, traditional white top load washer and dryer, but after the salesperson discussed the energy efficiency benefits of this washer, and after my husband was so impressed with the stylish looks of it to complement our home, they sold me on it. I am so glad they did! This machine is whisper quiet, uses barely any water (which sounds a little gross, but it really does a fabulous job of cleaning the clothes even with very little water; - - the technology is amazing), and it's a beautiful piece to look at, besides doing a wonderful job on your clothes!

mountaingoat says "Good deal" about Craftsman Convertible 32cc Gas Line Trimmer

mountaingoat — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 19:18:00 GMT

I just bought this one after buying and immediately returning a Bolens 150 piece of junk of comparable price. This sears model is very powerful. I don't have a lawn, I have big thick brush and weeds and this thing went through it with ease. It's a little heavy, especially when carrying it up and down steep slopes. Sometimes it doesn't start right back up unless you pull the rope several times. But mostly it starts up on the 1st or second pull. I am very happy with it so far. Spent about 8 full hours on a tough job and it held up just fine....

firsttimereviewer says "Broke twice within 11 months and company said it was my problem" about NordicTrack C2155 Treadmill

firsttimereviewer — Thu, 28 May 2009 13:29:44 GMT

After a few months of light use, console froze - no buttons would work. Even though warranty supposedly covered parts and labor, I had to pay $50 for "shipping" and "house visit." A few months later of light use and it froze again. Company gave me choise of paying another $50, or paying $189 for an extended warranty. Company took no responsbility for fact that this happened twice. When I asked whether it was unusual for a NordicTrack treadmill to break down to unusuable condition twice within an eleven month period, I got hems and haws. Reviews on Yelp and Amazon indicate other buyers face similar problems. I spent $750 for a treadmill that lasted 11 months. Gym membership would have been cheaper and better. Yes, this machine is conveniently designed and the fan and ipod dock are good ideas, but what good are they if they won't operate after a few months?

mercyMaude says "Gift cards should be reloadable without the card in hand." about Visa Gift Card

mercyMaude — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 04:07:42 GMT

For reasons which I prefer not to go into here, I would like to have a cashier here in Tullahoma be able to reload a kmart Visa gift card, using only the card number which is printed on my receipt. This would enable the card holder, who is 85 miles away, to be able to pay pharmacy co-pays using that card. This would eliminate me having to purchase new cards to help this person with a specific need, and then having to mail them to the person.

There is always a risk of the card being lost or stolen en route. As you may have guessed, I prefer not to hand over cash, which could be used for things other than prescription meds.
