I bought the burnt orange color cover so I can spot my Kindle where ever I leave it easily–and hopefully not misplace it! The cover is good quality leather, and even with the cover on, I can slip the K3 into my small purse without squeezing it in–something I could not do with my coverless Kindle 2.

I think for an easy purchase without having to buy a separate book light, the Kindle 3 lighted cover is a good choice.

I love my FHI Heat Nano Weight Pro 1900 Turbo Dryer in White. I was debating between this hairdryer and a T3 which I have used before. This one is so much better than the T3. The main points being is the T3 gets way too hot. This hairdryer has two options of heat. Medium and high. The T3 also notoriously breaks down and does not last. There are 3 stylist in my salon who have had that problem. This hairdryer gets the job done and is super lightweight and leaves hair really shiny. It really seals down that cuticle. I would definitely purchase again and now am looking into the flat iron by FHI.

This is by far the best hair dryer I have ever used. If you have curly hair or just extremely frizzy hair than this is the blow dryer for you; the diffuser that comes with is amazing. I have never seen my curly hair look so beautiful. The Chi hair dryer is also very quiet and works really fast. I would recommend this to anyone. It is well worth the money!!!

I have had this for about a month- I love the heat it puts out and the power it has. It is a little heavy, as others have stated, but I look at that as a small workout for my arms. The features are great as well- the screen on the back is very easy to clean, unlike my last dryer, and that really saves the motor. The cord is nice and long so you have the ability to move around. It does feel like a professional dryer, but for a really good price. I would definitely recommend it.

The dryer definitely delivers as promised. There is a HUGE difference in the shininess and silkiness of my hair after using it compared to a standard drug store dryer. In fact, it looks just like after a visit to the Salon. It’s not too heavy which is good too. The bling factor is just sort of silly to me and was not a factor in my purchase. The negative- the placement of the buttons was not great engineering. It is really easy to accidentally change settings or turn it off mid blow dry. Overall, a very good buy though. $50 for a salon result full size ionic dryer. Good deal!

If you depend on a hair dryer to style, and you are going overseas, this product is a must. Compact, rather powerful, and has a dual voltage feature. Definitely well worth it, and very affordable too.

Have you been seeking a bag with classic-cool style and practical storage? Look no further than B.Makowsky’s Chicago. This hobo provides pockets aplenty, along with the winning look of rich, stitch- and hardware-accented pebbled leather.

As a home mechanic I needed to understand what the ‘Check Engine Light’ was trying to tell me. In my newer car this meant I needed a Code Scanner. I never take anything to the Dealer as I’d much rather do the work myself and spend the money on tools. At least I get something tangible for my money and I know the work is done well. I found ‘Actron’ mentioned in a few disserent message boards around the net so I decided to research them.

This sweater looks great on my husband. There aren’t that many sweaters with buttons that aren’t cardigans (most have zippers now), and that’s what he likes, so I was glad to find this one. It was more expensive than most sweaters I looked at, but I think it’s a little bit nicer.

Needed a black tie in a hurry… this served the purpose. Quality is good. I wouldn’t call it a skinny tie as another review suggests… neither skinny or wide, just average.
