Wilton 1912-1001 4-Inch Lollipop Sticks, 150/ Pack

I got these to make oreo pops with my preschooler. So easy and fun! It's a very quick project to do when we host playdates and the kids love it! I put an oreo on a stick and put it in the freezer for a few minutes to help the cookie stay on the stick, then dip it in candy melts, then let the kids cover it in sprinkles.

I bought these to make cake pops for a baby shower. I followed instructions from other reviews that said to dip the stick into icing before inserting into the cake balls. I didn't try it without doing this step, but the sticks did not fall out of the cake balls all the way from dipping them in the almond bark to later when people were devouring them at the party. The sticks are thick and very sturdy. They held the cake balls upright while decorating. They're sturdy enough that I actually feel bad throwing them away after eating the cake pop! I had a ton left over too. I will purchase these specific ones in the future if/when I need more.

I bought these to use when I made cupcake toppers for my son's 6th birthday. They are good quality, solid, and sturdy. They were also a great height for the cupcake toppers. For my purposes, I probably should have gotten something flat instead of a round stick, because it would have been easier to sandwich between the two pieces of cardstock. As lollipop sticks, however, they would work perfectly. You get a whole bunch too.

Perfect for cake pops. I dip the end into chocolate and let rest before inserting into the cake pops and they hold very well.

Bought these for making cake pops as a little family activity with the kids...they worked perfect! They are quite thick...thicker than a standard lollipop stick. That was fine though. And 150 in a pack...we'll have them around for quite a while.

Perfect sized for chocolate covered marshmallows! Would buy again!

If you are making 1oz sized cake pops, then this is the perfect sized stick. I used to use the 6in ones, and these just look better proportionally.

I bought these to make cake pops. They worked really well. You have to make sure you dip them in frosting or melted chocolate first before you insert them into the cake pop or they will not hold. After i dipped the stick in melted chocolate or frosting i inserted them into the cake pop, then i stuck the cake pop in the freezer for about 5 min to cool then rolled them in chocolate and sprinkles and the sticks held perfectly in them.

They work well lollipop sticks but what I needed them for

They are just what they say they are, they are made from paper not plastic work great for pops

Craft A Brew Cabernet Sauvignon Making Home Kit – Easy Brew Beginners with Ingredients and Supplies – Ultimate Wine Brewer Experience, Clear

Made my first batch of homemade Cabernet with Craft A Brew. The kit included everything you need except wine bottles. I struggled a little with a few of the directions. And the siphon was a little difficult. But overall a really good place to start. The wine tasted great! More light like a Pinot than a Cabernet, but tasty nonetheless.

It was my first experience ever making wine.The instructions were clear and the wine came out better than expected. I would recommend for anyone.

Everything you need to begin your wine making adventure. Very interesting and fun home project.

Fun to make. Wine taste excellent..

I bought this as a gift for my girlfriend of three years as a sort of couple's activity and it's been great! The wine will be ready in just a few days now so hopefully it will taste as good as it looks!

I bought this as a gift for the holidays for my significant other, and she couldn't be more happy with the product. For someone that enjoys wine, you can't go wrong

I just bottled the wine, and even without aging, it tasted great! Only quip would be that there's no mini auto-siphon, I wish that was included with the kit. Would definitely recommend.

Whoa, slow down. It is a gift and currently unopened. Will rate it later

Bought this for my dad for his Christmas gift and he loved it.

Makes great tasting wine

Wilton Chocolate Pro Fountain Fondue Chocolate - Chocolate For Fountain

The chocolate comes in two packages which was enough for our chocolate fountain dessert for 25 people. I followed the directions on the package as well as the fountain and everything worked perfectly. There was still chocolate left over so I put it in a plastic container and placed it in the refrigerator. The following week, I got it out and melted it in the microwave. It tasted just as good so we enjoyed it a second time.

I buy this chocolate to make chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate dipped pretzels. I heat it in a microwavable bowl 10-20 seconds at a time, stirring in between. It is a very smooth consistency and great flavor and texture. I have purchased this product several times in the past. I have never had the chocolate spoil even if it doesn't get used quickly. I prefer this brand to Wilton or any other brand. This is a high quality chocolate and yields professional results.

We used this in our chocolate fountain for my daughter's graduation. I prefer this brand over others out there. You don't have to add oil to this brand and it melts easily and smoothly. Plus it tastes good. Great product.

Worked GREAT with the chocolate fountain. Very tasty too. Just follow the instructions on the package: microwave a bunch of times at medium power for 45 seconds or so (whatever it says on the package) and just massage it between each time in the microwave. Comes out nice and creamy. The advantage of this chocolate over others is that you don't have to add any oil. You melt it, and put it in the chocolate fountain.

Yummy chocolate, no issues with the melting or flowing through the fountain. Requires a preheated on the stove top and then into the fountain. It was a hit at our last birthday party. One pack was plenty, the other is in the freezer for the next event.

TRIED THIS PRODUCT SEVERAL TIMES IN THE JUNE/JULY TIME FRAME. USED AT MY DAUGHTER'S TWO WEDDING RECEPTIONS. THE ONE FOR GROOMS FAMILY IN THE ANNAPOLIS, MD AREA AND THE SECOND IN CLAREMORE, OK FOR THE BRIDES FAMILY AND FRIENDS. IT WAS A HIT AT BOTH PLACES, IT WAS QUALITY CHOCOLATE, EASY MELTING AND WORKED EXTREMELY WELL IN OUR WILTON CHOCOLATE PRO FOUNTAIN. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT FOR ANYONE USING A CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN OR ANY OTHER USE WHERE QUALITY CHOCOLATE IS REQUIRED.

This chocolate tasted great and given enough time ran smooth and pretty thorough the chocolate fountain. I will definitely purchase again- was great to be able to heat in the bag, but was messy to microwave due to hot spots and very messy to get in the fountain from the bag and get it all out!

Super hit. This was used with a fondue fountain. Both were his everyone asked what kind of chocolate is that it is delicious. Easy to make in the microwave. Don’t have to add anything when using a fondue fountain. Lasted all day only used one bag. Can’t wait for the next event to use it again.

Loved this product because you can melt the chocolate straight from its bag. No containers or messy bowls.
Instructions says 3 minutes to melt but I left for a little longer. It also says it doesn't need oil but I had to add 3 spoons of coconut oil because it was getting too creamy for the fountain. Flavor is great.

Chocolate fountain with this chocolate was the absolute hit of the party. Wonderful chocolate, sweet and creamy. You will not be sorry. With the left-overs, simply dip your fruit or whatever in the warmed chocolate and put in fridge for about 1/2 hour. Purchased more for next party and I know everyone will love it again.

Nest Sensor Thermost 3pk

With so many smart devices out there, it’s tough to figure out which products are actually useful, and can improve the quality of life, vs those that are a waste of money. This product by far is an absolute must, and I’ll attempt to explain.

Prior to installing this device I had been experiencing significant temperature differences in my 2story single AC unit home. Days where hot upstairs where the thermostat was located, so the unit ran constantly to keep it cool, while the downstairs was very cold. At night the inverse would happen and the downstairs was very hot and muggy while the upstairs remained cool. I later found out that my ducts where set to send most of the air to the upper level for obvious daytime cooling.

When I installed the sensors I immediately had the ability to adjust the daily schedule to perfection. The sensors and Nest allow you to pick which sensor/temp drive the ac cooling, which was amazing. What nailed it for me was the added ability to control the fan in-between cooling cycles. This feature allowed air to be circulated throughout the home, which helped to balance the temperature from the upper to the bottom level, taking a 3-5 degree difference, down to 0-1 degree throughout the day. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate this product and love my Nest even that much more. Hope this review help other families out there save some money and enjoy their home that much more!

Order placed on 2/23 and arrived on 2/6. It was scheduled to arrived between 3/1 and 3/8. I added these to my existing set up to monitor additional areas in my home. Opened the Nest app, and set up took about 2 minutes for each sensor. I like how I can easily monitor temperatures throughout the house, and tailor an occupied room to a comfortable setting.

Love that concept. I wish it measured humidity for each room too. But still great.

Great product my thermostat is located in the hallway where no one hangs out so now with this product I can adjust heat or cooling to the actual locations we are

I learned about these from a friend and can't imagine why Nest doesn't advertise these more aggressively. It's great to be able to use a sensor away from the thermostat.

I love these things! Love always being able to monitor temperature in every room I have these in.

Some parts of our house are not used or used by guests occasionally. I think these sensors should have reusable labels or a place for the users to annotate the room/location. Maybe it's just me, but the instructions were tooooooo easy and focused on the installation, so the implementation was left to the inexperienced user. It was late and I was trying to get it done, so I didn't think about mixing them up. I'll put them in the fridge one at at a time to sort it out :) with my iPhone app. (Wait a sec...here, hold my beer...)

Bought an apartment where the Nest thermostat was mounted near the washer/dryer. Poor vent placement makes different parts of the apartment very different temperatures. These remote thermostats and the ability to schedule which thermostat is dominate at different times of the day allowed me much greater control over my heating and cooling.

Identifies the temperature discrepancy between the main thermostat and the sensor. Providing an option to choose the sensor to reference that approximates the desired comfort setting.

Easy to use and helped get the temperature right across the house

LUCKY Handheld Fish Finder Portable Fishing Kayak Fishfinder Fish Depth Finder Fishing Gear with Sonar Transducer and LCD Display

This portable fish finder is amazing. I don't understand why there are so many complains in the review. It shows accurate fish location and water depth. You can switch the measurement by feet. Just press "Enter" button for 3-5 seconds until you can see the "M" changing to "FT".

You can't use it in swimming pool or water bucket, because the transducer doesn't work in a very small space. The sonar technology is based on sound waves. The transducer send a sound wave signal and determines distance by measuring the time between the transmission of the sound wave when the sound wave is reflected off an object. If the water space is very small, the time is too short to measure the data you concerned. I highly recommend you to try it outside in the lake or somewhere has enough space.

I use it on my kayak and it has been great. I like it so much because I can know where is a good fishing place. I caught a lot of fish and I am very pleased with this small item.

However, the handheld is not waterproof. I reflected the issue to the customer service. The customer service is very prompt and helpful. I am going to buy a waterproof bag later and you can buy it in this store as well.

I am very impressed with the function of the Lucky Portable fishfinder for the money. It mounted on my Hobie Outback and reads well and shows fish very accurate. Two things if you are planning to purchase this item it only reads in meters, for me no big deal just,a little calculating. And the bottom contour does not show , it has various icons that highlight, weeds on bottom rocks etc. I purchased the unit mainly for depth but was quit impressed with the readings of the fish.

I was skeptical because it does not cost a lot of money. However, I took it out in a canoe and it pointed out several fish. We drop lines and it was right. We started catching fish. I took it out later on a bass boat to see how it stacked up against the built in fish finder. My friend was watching the finder on his and saying he didn't see much. Mine, however, was showing a good many fish. He said we'd trust mine. The pressure was on for the little finder to prove itself! Within minutes of dropping lines in, we were catching crappie. We caught 17 before we ran out of bait. I would recommend it to anyone. It does take a minute or two to calibrate, once it is in the water, but when you're going to be out all night, a minute or two is not a deal breaker.

Used it to fish this past weekend from my kayak, helped me catch 6 fish where I thought I wouldn't get much action. I'd recommend it and give it 5 stars. Great product

40 bucks and it works, only drawback is battery life, it didn't last all day fishing. Bring extra batteries and you should be OK.

Warm Tips
1. The fish lures and the fish smaller than 3.94inch can't be detected by the portable fish finder.
2. This model of portable depth finder doesn't distinguish big fish and small fish normally. However, it can show big fish and small fish by adjusting sensitivity to high level through sensitivity setting.
3. The transmitter (transducer) is waterproof design but the receiver (fish finders display) is not. Keep the fishfinders in dry condition after fishing to extend its product life.

The fish finder worked great .. l just wish it came with Rechargeable batteries.. other than that is is great

The portable fish finder is very easy to use and good quality. The fishing sonar can continue working for 4-5 hours with brand new batteries. The kayak fish finder also has the battery saving mode. If you turn on this mode, the portable fish finder will work more time than usual. The color LCD screen allow to see under sunshine. If you like night fishing, you can turn on the backlight, you can see clearly at night.

This is great! I actually just use it to know how deep the water is and it’s way to use and can change easily from meters to feet. I go on different boats with friend and sometimes jet skis and if you want to swim it’s nice to know how deep, especially if you’re like me and don’t want to touch a mucky bottom!

For the price this thing works excellent when fish passed under my boat I was actually able to find them and catch it works great for the bank as well just give it a toss and you're off Very accurate for such a small cheap device

Large color screen of the portable fish finder shows you the location of the fish. The fish finder portable cable is long enough and the fishing sonar detects both small and big fishes. You could also adjust the sensitivity level if you want to ignore small fishes. The adjustable sensitivity of hte portable fish finder will help you conquer different fishing environment.

Winsome Wood 80623 Baldwin Lap Desk with Flip Top Bamboo

Absolutely love it. It's good quality. I actually bought it so I could paint and draw while watching TV and it works great for that. My cat likes that there is a spot for him to lay. 😂

There are a lot of conflicting reviews about this product, so here's my two cents. I really like this lap desk, it's perfect for eating snacks or working on my laptop from my bed. The whole thing is overall pretty sturdy, I had no problems upon its arrival.
The folding legs don't lock into place but they are sturdy enough to not flop around so it isn't a problem. They aren't very tall however, so size of your legs where you want the desk to be will make a difference, for example I can't cross my legs and have it still standing without my legs lifting it off the bed.
The left side of the horizontal part is held flat by a magnet on that piece and the main frame so it also doesn't flop around in the horizontal position. It also adjusts to four different levels of inclination, as shown in the picture.
The drawer is rather small, but that's to be expected for a folding flat desk like this. The second picture shows the drawer and a remote for size, which is just barely too big to fit into the drawer in the position shown, however it does fit diagonally in the drawer. The drawer is kind of loose and if you're carrying the desk around in a way other than its usual horizontal position, you should be careful to not leave anything in the drawer because it'll probably fall open and drop your stuff out of it. The drawer itself won't fall out of its place though, once it reaches the end of its track it stays there. For me this isn't a big deal because I wasn't buying this for the drawer :)

I think improvements have been made since the first reviews were posted. The quality is fantastic and the inner drawer dimensions are larger. My brand new mess o' #2 pencils fits perfectly in addition to a bunch of my various pens and notepad and eyeglass wipes

Excellent! Great price for a well-made quality product. Frankly, I was hesitant to see what I got after reading some of the reviews here, but this is fabulous. This thing is tight - no wiggles, no looseness, all hardware is straight, true and tight, no loose joints, no sharp edges.

1) The finish is flawless - no scratches, dings or flaws in the wood surface anywhere (and I checked this thing over like a dermatologist looking for skin cancer)
2) I'm a fat gal (225 lbs) and this clears my charmingingly chubby thighs while on the bed with zero problem, even room to move my knees up and down for circulation. I can even cross my ankles without disturbing this table. Yes, I have really fat thighs and
3) The drawer inner dimensions are 5.3125" front to back x 7.4375 side to side x 1 inch deep
4) There is an adjustable angle part of the tabletop of 4 angles in addition to flat
5) The flip-up side has a nice wood bar to stop your book/tablet/laptop from sliding off into your lap when the surface is inclined
6) The immobile portion of the tabletop measures 7.5 x 13.25 front to back
7) Every single piece of the wood is stained! Yes, even the underside!

The only thing close to a downside is that this is so purty and well made that I can't bear to paint and decoupage it, lol! *sarcasm*

BOTTOM LINE: This Lap Desk is FABULOUS!

Very nice.. Serves the purpose.. But it's so delicate that even a slight pressure on anything would break the table.. But I like the table so much, it's so classy and clean.. I would keep it as I don't use it so hard that I would break it..

I practice sitting meditation (buddhist style) and I sometimes read sutras while I practice. I wanted to have a table like this for that. it's perfect size and it serves perfectly for that. I also put my laptop to watch youtube or netflix. Good quality. I highly recommend. It's better than my expectation.

4.5 stars. Real close to 5
(When looking at the photos I attach, note that my laptop is a 15.6")

**What I like**
This is so much heavier and sturdier than I expected. The look of it is nice and you can tell it's not cheaply made.

I saw where a couple of people asked about whether or not the legs lock. They don't, but that doesn't seem like it's going to be a problem. The weight of this item will keep the legs in place and all the parts are sturdy.

This actually will work as a "lap" table for me since I can fit my legs under it (and I'm not a little thing!)

**What I wish was better**
The flip-top slant is rather steep. I wish there was one more setting to lower it just a bit for when I am typing. I happen to have a memory foam mattress so I don't have to worry much about tipping the desk or laptop over. Someone with a "bouncier" mattress might want to be really careful about moving around while the flip-top is raised.

There should be a bit more room for the mouse pad. As is, there is *just* enough room. I can always scoot the laptop over to the left to make more room, but I wish I didn't have to.

Basically, I got better than I expected and am really happy with this except for those small dislikes I mentioned. I would have even paid a few dollars more if I'd had to.

The desk came in fully assembled and ready to rock straight out of the box. I had extremely low expectations given the price at $18 but I'm very happy with my purchase. It's sturdy and the dark walnut finish is simple but looks lovely. The lap desk works well and I didn't see any scratches or surface flaws on the product. The drawer slides pretty easily open and close so be wary if you use it store loose items and try to move it around on its side as the drawer will slide open but I'm not using it for permanent storage. My desk's primary function is as my personal lap writing desk for journal writing and crafting in bed. At its current price it serves its purpose very well. I'm a relatively average sized 5'3'' woman so it fits well over my lap but if you are larger or have considerably thicker thighs you may wish to consider one with extendable legs to fit over your lap.

Bottom line; not the greatest construction but for $24 it's quite good.

The color is a nice deep cherry wood. It can hold a good weight as I had my laptop and heavy textbooks on it. The construction looks pretty solid EXCEPT for the leg that holds up the panel on top, it's quite thin and not very securely attached I can see having to reinforce it. And the little side drawer is quite flimsy. It slides in and out easily but feels rather loose. I mostly keep pens and hilighters in there.

The desk is lightweight and didn't have a smell like other reviews said. It definitely looks more expensive than it is but def worth $24 even if it's a little flimsy.

It's not that tall so at least on my bed I don't have enough space to have my legs under it. But I think if I were sitting and tuck the legs in then it would fit comfortably on my lap.

Like I said at the top, it's not the best piece of furniture you'll own but for $24 it definitely looks very nice and serves its purpose.

Good quality heavy wood. Stable platform for working and drawing. I will use it without the legs. But legs are very sturdy. Mine has 2 loose screws. One that fell out during shipment. They are 1.5" screws that hold the table top drawer portion to the frame. The holes in the table top are drilled too large. Not worth sending it back. I got it for $14. I took the small tabletop off and think I will just take a piece of matchstick or chopstick and glue it in the oversized holes with woodglue. Since I have it off I think I can do a better job with the loose drawer. The drawer "glides" that the drawer slides on. I can take one side off and glue a piece of plastic/nylon to both "glides" to take up the loose slack and make it slide easier. Also so the drawer does not open when upside down when moving, I can add a tiny piece of glue or plastic/nylon to the bottom of the table in front of drawer. It will not interfere with drawer when rightsideup since <1/8" gap between top of drawer face and bottom of table. I will not order again though.

cant complain for $25. also makes a good foot stool. mine did not show up with any blemishes as others reported, but due to my clumsiness i managed to put a knick in it because i rammed it into my night stand.... but it all works the same, and is a very nice addition to my study. the drawer on the side is very nice, and its a good sized lap desk. You can use it for laptops, or even books and writing. You could even do geometry on it, as its the nice size lap desk, not too big, but big enough that you can use it like a real desk. When using as a foot stool, it sits about 7 inches off the ground, so its somewhat low compared to my main foot stool which is about 12 inches in height. I think it is a very nice piece to have around for only $25, especially if you are into wood furniture like myself.

The only thing you need to buy alongside this is some good super glue.

Fits perfectly, love it

This product was referred to me by a friend. I was looking for something to cover my 2018 Macbook Air after another review I read for the tomtoc 360° Protective Laptop Sleeve had me concerned about the outer protection. The recommendation to purchase the 13 inch is good to follow as it fit perfectly for the 13.3 inch screen I have. I choose the clear "color" because I did not want to take away from the Mac's appearance. The plastic case covering came in perfect condition with a screen protector and keyboard cover which all are durable enough for me. The application process was very easy. I am happy with this product.

If you're the clumsy type of person I would not recommend this product.

Sleekly and elegantly designed product provide a good protection for the new computer. Love it and absolutely a good buy.

Just got this yesterday and love the color. It fits great on the 2018 version and keeps it lightweight still. Hopefully it’ll hold up as time passes.

Love the case and it fits perfect, at first I thought it was too small but it’s just hard to put on at first. Matte finish and slightly transparent.

I purchased the clear case for my MacBook Air 2018 as a reasonable choice for an expensive computer that I travel often with. I didn't want many frills but needed the basics. I purchased this for ~$13 and it included the 3 products with extras as advertised. After setting up the kit, I was impressed because the case provided no distractions; it's almost as if it wasn't there and preserves the minimalist soul of my MacBook Air. This clear case was a perfect fit for both the body and the aesthetic and I highly recommend this affordable product.

One important downside to this case that may not affect everyone is that it will make attached USB C hubs incompatible. These hubs are not the popular dongles. The affected hubs use both USB C ports and need to fit perfectly against them. The case provides a recess for the USB C ports but the added thickness to the sides mean these USB C hubs can't fit.

I'll drill down into the products in this kit for more details.

- Clear Plastic Hard Shell :

The outer shell was clear as advertised and the finish of the plastic is very glossy. This works well with the gold color of my MacBook to add to the feeling of a shiny gold toy. One of the main reasons why I bought a MacBook Air 2018 was because I wanted a computer that's fun to use. Outside of the drudgery of work and school, it's important to me that such an expensive product can be seen as something I would want to use not just have to use. I was picky with the cases because I didn't want to lose the cool factor but after installing it, the glossy gold makes it seem even more cool. The installation was simple and it snaps in place fairly intuitively without the need to read the instructions. A downside to the case is the weight it adds. The weight of the plastic speaks to the quality but for people looking for the convenience of the light laptop experience that the MacBook Air offers, this case might add an uncomfortable amount of weight. It's not an issue personally but keep this in mind. As mentioned earlier, this case also adds thickness to the laptop which may make some USB C hubs incompatible but it doesn't affect the dongles that extend with a wire.

- Screen Protector

For those familiar with plastic phone screen covers, this is the same concept. It's going to be difficult if you're not good with applying plastic screen covers or have never done something like it before. It's more difficult than a phone screen because it's more than 4 times the size. With the right preparation and practice, it turned out well with some bubbles here and there that are noticeable only under a certain light. I might be better at applying these things than the average person so please ask a family member or friend if you're not confident. I started out by first wiping the screen with electronic wipes which were not included. Please note that water or regular Windex will destroy the screen so research the proper way to clean the screen. Afterwards, I thoroughly wiped the screen with the microfiber cloth that was included. I recommend putting the screen laying up towards you on a table in direct light so you can see any imperfections. Once any dust or other particles were gone, I pulled half of the adhesive cover down and applied the screen protector from the top down using the included squeegee to push out air bubbles. I would remove the rest of the adhesive cover as I went down. While there were air bubbles, most of them get smaller or go away once the adhesive settles. The MacBook Air has a Retina display so I was a little concerned by how it would affect things but there's no perceivable difference from before and after. Overall, the screen protector does its job and anything more would be extra. It's not more glossy or more matte than without the screen protector.

- Keyboard Cover

The keyboard cover is translucent and matte. Just as the hard shell, it's simple to install without the need for instructions. The plastic is flexible and stretchy such that it might be able to survive hundreds of thousands of key strokes. The cover cuts out the Touch ID key so you can still use it. They added more tactile features to the F and J keys to make typing easier. I prefer it because I use many different keyboards so it helps me calibrate my typing easier. As with the rest of the products included, it provides everything you need and nothing you don't.

- Extras

The extras included the microfiber cloth that I used to apply the screen protector, a small storage bag tied by string, and some extra surface nubs outside from the ones included.

Ok so these covers are pretty nice. I've bought 2 now. The Frost and Black. They aren't real durable and sort of flimsy but they are more for protecting against scratches and if the kids want to put stickers all over them this works great. I will note the Black is more of a sheer transparent black but looks real nice and you can see your apple logo through it. There is a specific way to put it on so if your having troubles make the top of computer is opened and try snapping it on the other direction. Mostly if you have any troubles at all with the product the customer service is excellent!

I ordered the red case and I couldn't be happier with the product I was sent. the keyboard cover fits perfectly and feels no different than the regular cover. The case adds that personal touch to the laptop and its matte finish is great. I didn't really use the screen protector though, that's the only negative. overall a great product

Mr. Beer American Ale 2 Gallon Craft Beer Refill Kit, Contains Hopped Malt Extract Designed for Consistent, Simple and Efficient Homebrewing, Red/Black

Ordered 3/12/2015 and was promptly shipped and was very fresh. The expire date was 1 year and several months out. This was my 4th Mr Beer brew and my best so far.
This kit does a great job, no issues and I will be buying again soon I'm sure.

Modifications -
I wanted a little more ABV so I added an additional 1lb 2.4 oz Briess Amber LME (I was shooting for 1lb) and also added 1oz Hallertau hops to balance the additional malt. I used a glass carboy instead of the Mr. Beer keg since I had a carboy available.

Recipe -
I brought ~1.5 gallons of spring water to a boil, added the 1 lb 2.4 oz Amber Briess LME and the hops, boiled for 20 minutes. Burner off. Added the Mr Beer hopped extract, cooled in ice bath. Added spring water to about 2+ gallons for an OG of 1.054. I aerated the wort (shook the glass carboy for several minutes) and pitched the dry Mr. beer yeast. Fermentation took off within 8 hrs, the yeast did a great job and active fermentation tapered off within 5 days.
I left it in the carboy for 4 weeks to finish. FG was 1.007, which is ~87% attenuation and ABV ~6.3%.
I kegged straight to a corney keg, and forced carbonated.

Taste-
Malty and smooth, great head that sticks around. Nice finish and good ABV level.

Additional thoughts -
Mind your sanitation, I'd recommend getting some Star San and use as directed.
Oktoberfest technically is a lager recipe but this kit is intended to be fermented at ale temperatures and does so very well. I would recommend keeping the fermentation temp on the low end ~68. My first few batches fermented warmer than ideal and you could tell.
Also, do not be in a hurry! Let this sit for a few weeks at least. Dark ales should be 3-4 weeks. Green beer is not good!

Summary -
This kit was fresh, yeast performed well, the extract was tasty, and I ended up with a great brew.
Will buy again!

Update -
That 2 gallons did not go far, the keg kicked tonight. :o(
That was a really nice brew.
I already have my next brew lined up but I'm very tempted to jump on the Mr. Beer website's 30% off sale and grab some for some double batches... that sale is going on for a few more days.
(I gave in - double batches of Oktoberfest, Voodoo, and Dark Forest Stout are on the way :o)

The brewing process is simple with this setup. The main things- I'd say -you have to think about are temperature and sanitation. The hardest part is the waiting. Just follow the instructions and wait a while to get a tastey drink. I did have one problem. I had trouble with a leak at the spigot on my first keg. I had it replaced. Everything is good now and I have 2 batches conditioning. The Oktoberfest tastes good, well I'm not a beer connoisseur, so there's that. Just remember to give it at least 4 weeks conditioning time. It's a cool process and very rewarding.

My only complaint is that my beer was about $8.50 / sixpack , and a cooper's kit done in a similar fashion was $4.73 / sixpack. The rest: It makes good beer.. The smaller size was much easier to deal with on brewing day and bottling day. I really liked the taste of the beer, and it was very easy to make. It really does taste like you went to the store and bought an import. I used 22oz of dry malt extract instead of sugar. This quote applies: "Also referred to as Märzenbier, this malty, deep amber colored beer features a smooth body, toffee-like malt richness, and a full, biscuit like bouquet. Sample the celebrated beer of Munich's world famous Oktoberfest."

You know the one I mean if you like Irish Stout beer. You can make this one yourself, and it's delicious. Just take time and follow the directions. The fermentation temperature is important. Probably not a problem if you have a basement or air conditioned room. I have to do mine during winter, so I can warm the room to the ideal temperature for fermentation. I like glass bottles, but I have used the plastic ones that came with my fermenter in a pinch.

I bought this as the 2nd brew to try in my Mr Beer kit. It has everything needed including instructions on the side. I only gave this 4 stars because it's currently brewing. In 3-4 weeks I'll update my review once I taste the final product. My first brew was the blonde light beer that came in the kit and it was really good, so I can't imagine I won't update it to 5 full stars.

I like Mr. Beer kits, and this is one of my favorite flavors. Of course these kits are not for hardcore DIY beer brewers, but they satisfy my need for dabbling occasionally. One drawback: Every now and then you'll probably make a mistake, and an entire batch will come out lousy. But overall, I enjoy the process and the results. And when these replacement kits go on sale, they're significantly cheaper than a comparable commercial beer.

Followed the instructions to the letter and ended up with a great tasting beer I have a REALLY hard time believing I brewed on my own. I won't go into details on flavor and character because other reviews have nailed it. I will be making another batch of this one.

I purchased this to try my hands on an Oktoberfest, and so far everyone seems to like the brew. I added the brew enhancer even though Mr Beer said it did not need it. I also let it sit for 2 weeks instead of one week. I brought 3 of these kits to make a 5 gallon batch and then kegged it. All in all very satisfied with the brew and how flavorful it is. I definitely recommend this kit!

This is a great gift or just an easy way for newbies to brew up several different flavors. Mr beer products are second to none. I have been brewing with them for years. Takes the guesswork out and helps you make great drinkable beverage every time.

This is an absolutely awesome extract. I have had a number of world class stouts, bocks, dopplebocks and porters, and I can honestly say that this stout compares favorably with all of them. Even my friends who dislike stouts absolutely loved this beer (the one drank a whole liter in one sitting; he would have drank more if I had had more on hand). It has a low ABV and a great taste. It's not too light or too heavy, it's slightly sweet but by no means overwhelming. I was very pleased with my purchase. That's why I've decided to buy another and use this as my base for stout experiments (vanilla stout, coffee stout, etc). Buy it. You won't regret it.

Hikig Car Headrest Mount Holder for Kids All Kindle Fire - Kindle Fire HD 6 / HD 7 / HD X7 / HD X9 / HD 6 (2014) / HD 7 (2014) / HD 6 (Kid Edition) / HD 7 (Kid Edition) / New Fire 7 / HD 8 / HD 10

This product does exactly what it says it does. Slightly disappointed that there was no way to add any kind of tilt do it. My headrest is canted forwarded so the screen was pointing towards the car's ceiling and my kid was having to strain to see it. I ended up using a small rolled up blanket tucked between the Velcro strap and top of the headrest and it worked fine afterwards.

This product is sooo easy to install and holds my sons 10 in. tablet securely, even with the silicone case on it. I was worried it wouldn't hold while driving after reading the reviews. We drove for over an hour today on pothole covered roads and never once did it need to be adjusted. It is so easy my 8 year old placed the pieces that hold it in completely by himself. Love it so much I just ordered another one for my stepson. Highly recommend.

This is exactly what I was looking for! We have several long car trips this summer and a 2 year old who is still facing rear in her car seat. This was the solution to hours of whining! She can't reach the screen to stop the video, but she can see and hear it so well. I am so thankful for this product! It affixed easily to the headrest and the Kindle was very secure.

Perfect, its more convenient than just letting my son have his tablet on his hands while driving. I feel is easier for him just to look up and be hands free. Ist a great product, i ecen told my sister to buy it and she did and she is happy as well.

Fits really snug, takes a bit of adjusting to get it to really “grip” a tablet, especially one in the amazon fire kids case. But after a couple “falls off during driving” adjustments it was really a lifesaver on the 16 hour drive to Florida with our toddler. It’s still attached to my drivers seat and I don’t even notice it at all, so totally worth it.

Exactly what we we looking for. My daughter's Kindle Fire HD Kids Edition fits in snugly, but is easily removable. The headrest mount is so unintrusive that I leave it on all the time. I can't even tell it's on the head rest.

We were going on a 5 hour car trip and needed something to hold my sons kindle in place so he could have something to do on the trip. This worked so well. No bump or hills budged this thing at all. We love it and would gladly recommend it to anyone.

This is something I needed a longgggg time ago. It isn’t currently holding my iPad mini but I purchased it for my daughters new kindle fire. Glad to know it’s universal.

Arrived as described, keeps my sons kindle fire in front of him for long rides. The clamp system snaps on to the kindle kid armor and doesn't bounce out. The hook and loop strap that holds it to the headrest is strong and has not shifted so far.

Easy to take on and off. It is very secure.

Home Brew Ohio Liquor Quik Super Yeast X-Press (Makes 6.5 U.S. Gal./25L)

Liquor should be quicker and slicker. This stuff rules, it's all I've ever used. Comes with instructions on the back, big bag for multiple small batches. Getting the yeast out aint addressed, though. I typically cool the final product down and ladle it out without disturbing the yeast at the bottom.

It burned through 8 pounds of sugar in 3 days with no problem, but it did seem to throw the flavor off quite a bit. I would probably buy it again if i was in a hurry.

Worked like a champ just beware to have a good Air lock LOL what a mess you can have. After about a full week it was still bubbling. Following week everything seemed to clear up very nice. Over all product was strong and smooth.

I have used this product before, is easy and makes a good product, the company shipped promptly

Great yeast and works optimally when temperatures are consistent in high 70's. Have on occasion had complete fermentation in 1 to 2 days!

Tim Hortons 100% Arabica Medium Roast Original Blend Ground Coffee, 32.8 Ounce

I made a pot of this, and just after drinking one cup from that pot, I became Canadian, eh. It gave me the confidence to finally try ice skating, and before I knew it, I was stopping on a dime and blasting snow chips at tiny children. If you can't take the ice, get out of the rink. Also, I was a lot nicer to people. Pretty sure this is a drug that all Canadians are taking which makes them pleasant and good at ice sports. My optimum pot is 10 cups of water and 7 scoops of this magic stuff.

Best coffee ever

I have purchased Tim Hortons original in the past and love it. The coffee pod has always been brown In the past, but this time (September 2015) it arrived in clear pods. There is a problem with these. The pods "bend" at the bottom and the knife punch will not penetrate, therefore, it will not brew. I tried other pods and each time had no problem with those. I am having to punch a hole with a knife in the bottom of the pod before I place it in the Kerig Brewer when this happens, which is quite often. I applaud Tim Hortons for trying to make a k-cup that is recyclable, but this is not working and it is difficult for me or anyone with arthritis in their hands to get the plastic cup released from the top and filter. Needless to say, I don't even try anymore, it all goes in the trash. Love this coffee, but will consider not buying if the pod isn't fixed.

Ahhh. Tim Horton's. We moved from Buffalo Ny to the Cleveland Ohio area and missed out local Tim Horton's coffee until we found it online.
My wife and I both love the coffee and these single servings are perfect for us.
My wife actually set it up for automatic re-order and so now, we never run out.
One minor critizicm - the plastic 'cup' of the product seems to be a stronger type of plastic than other K-Cups we've had. When closing the lid of the coffee machine, you have to snap it shut in order to pierce the bottom of the cup. If you close it gently, it will ony dent the cup bottom and will not poke the hole in it that it needs to have.
Great product though.

Unlike earlier reviews of this product, I have run approximately 160 K cups of this product through my Keurig without a single overflow or rupture. It is true the plastic cup is a bit more rigid than domestic K cups here in the US, but if one takes their time in loading the cup into the machine, these problems can be eliminated.
As I live about 300 miles from Canada in the Pacific Northwest, this is the next best thing to visiting a Tim Hortons every morning for my coffee fix!! Awesome service as the shipment comes out of Las Vegas and takes about 3~5 days for delivery even though I did not pay for Prime. I live just South of Portland, Oregon just to give an idea of the service. Since I've started having this coffee as my standard, I've converted about half my town to it. That's saying alot since Starbucks and Dutch Brothers are the predominant brews here.

We subscribe to this coffee. I first had Timmie's coffee in Afghanistan at a little outpost shop they set up on our post. It was a welcomed treat in that environment...much like a glass of water would be in the middle of the Sahara. Of course, during that time, taste expectations go down and you adapt to what's available but we thought it was GREAT coffee. When I saw it on Amazon, we first purchased the smaller bag, for nostalgia's sake. The first pot brewed was tasty...smooth, no bitter aftertaste. My husband and I much prefer it to other brands you can purchase in the stores. However, while I rave about this coffee, I have to say it's our "every day" coffee. This isn't going to win any awards but it's much tastier and much preferred than say, DD or Folger's. We will continue to purchase this, as we have for the last year!

Great Coffee. I’ve moved a few years back from upstate NY to Charlotte, NC. I find myself constintley craving good coffee in the south. After trying a bunch of different types of coffee I realized a lot of different coffees make my stomach upset. So I stopped drinking coffee for 5 years. All of a sudden on Slickdeals.net I saw a Tim Hortons deal on Amazon. I was shocked they carried it on Amazon but then again it is Amazon. So I ordered a container. Just as smooth as I can remember and no upset stomach afterwords. If you want the perfect 10 cups use 1/2 cup of coffee grounds.

Hated to have to switch to decaf for at least the latter part of the day. I was anti-decaf. Convinced I could always detect that "decaf" taste, I started looking for a reasonably priced, good decaf. Tim Horton's is all over Canada, and it is great tasting coffee. So I tried the decaf, and was very pleasantly surprised to not be able to tell it from the high octane. It is not a really dark roast, but great aroma, and the price is right! Will buy again.

Many years ago while traveling in Canada, and also in the New England area of the US, I was introduced to Timmy's. I was hooked. Their coffee, their baked goods, their service, their friendliness, the cleanliness of their restaurants (when not using the drive-thru), all excellent, without fail, at every location I happened upon. During some of those road trips I was on, Timmy's coffee became my staple. Fresh, hot, when I would get it to go it would fill the car with a delicious aroma. The taste, even better. Clean, crisp, no bitterness. Very much a medium roast, but far better (to my tastes) than Starbucks (Pike's blend for instance) and better than Dunkin' Donuts. I find Timmy's to be slightly stronger than Dunkin Donuts' coffee, but perhaps that's open to debate. The point is that I like the taste of Timmy's far more than Dunkin's.

At any rate, after leaving Canada/New England, I would often long for a cup of Timmy's. Ordering it up - the next best thing. Now anytime I feel like it, I can brew a pot of my own. It's not quite the same, but it's very close. It also (marginally) makes up for not being able to pop into a Timmy's in person.

I will state that ordering it through Amazon proved to be a fiasco. To clarify, I did order direct from Amazon; but it was sold by Tim Horton's and fulfilled/shipped by Amazon. Perhaps it was the shipping department staff member's first day on the job, but they felt it appropriate to throw the canister in a box seven times too big, with no padding, no protection, nothing. It wound up at my front door looking like it had been sat upon and then kicked all the way to Miami Beach (where I live). I complained to Amazon about this, but nothing has resulted. I also emailed Tim Horton's corporate office to inform them of the manner in which Amazon is shipping their product, so maybe that complaint will circulate back to someone who matters within Amazon. In any case, Tim Horton's itself advised me that whenever I want to order coffee, order directly from them and they will ensure it shipped safely and securely to me and, should it arrive damaged in any way, they will remedy the situation immediately. Apparently no such guarantee is in place when fulfilled by Amazon. Nonetheless, it's good to have that peace of mind and get the product direct from the source. In that respect, from this point forward I will order directly from Timmy's.

I like Tim Horton's ground coffee, but this just isn't quite as good. I believe the problem is that, like with all K-cups, there is not enough grounds and there is not enough extraction time versus a drip coffee maker.

On the 6 oz. setting, the flavor is better, but then I need to use 2 Kcups every time. If this company added more grounds to their K-cup, and if Keurig would slow their brew speed from 30s to about 50s, then perhaps the extraction, flavor, etc. would be better. So use the 6 oz. for now.

5x Lalvin EC-1118 Champagne Yeast 5g Sachet 18% Homebrew Wine Making 4.5L-23L

Shipping was fast. I used this to make two gallons of a traditional mead. Very fast fermentation at 65 degree room temperature. Finished product yielded 12% ABV (used a bit less honey in that one) and 15% ABV. I’m quite pleased with the results.

I've made meade/melomiel, and wine so far and this yeast is amazing. A very gentle, slow ferment.

I made mead with this, I'm currently aging it so I haven't tasted it but it smells quite strongly of alcohol so I'm confident in saying this product works well.

Good carbonation kick. Use with yeast promoter and you'll get some intense carbonation and pressure.

Great yeast, but very slow to ferment, even at elevated temperature. Good for wine or champagne.

Decent product, well packaged, fair price. I would buy again.

fermenting perfectly right now.

I purchased this to make ginger beer and it turned out great.

I'm using it to make mead, and so far has produced a lot of alcohol.

Ogrmar Car Sound Deadener Noise Filter Application Wheel Roller (Black)

I got this roller to use in gluing the headliner and side panels into my 1930 Chevrolet car. It did a great job. It is just soft enough to follow the contours but still solid enough to press the parts together. It held together well and gave me no problems.

I was not expecting a good quality roller , but what I received was a very good quality roller, it is made with at least medium duty roller wheel and the metal construction of roller holder is better than expected and then there is the handle and it is well made as well !!! I am very satisfied with this purchase !!!!

This product does What it is supposed to do but the screws keep coming loose and there is no way to tighten them because the Allen heads are not a standard size... I had use pliers To tighten them( It is just very cheap you get what you pay for... PS I have every size Allen wrench)

It's working well so far. I wish the edges were beveled so that it didn't cut into the sound deadener on certain sections. But you get the hang of it and can work around that.

Did what it was supposed to. Only gripe is the screw that hold the center shsrt together comes lose and the roller can rub and catch on the frame. Two nylon washers and some red loctite did the trick, now it works perfectly. So one star deducted for that.

This item works great. However, like most tools of this nature, it may not be put together in the best way. I recommend that anyone purchasing this item take out the retaining screw and reseat it with some loctite before use. The screw fell out at some point during my sound deadener installation, and I had to find a replacement to finish the job.

Impressive quality for the price. I can press down on it with a lot of force and the material doesn’t bend or deflect. I had to remove 1 star because there is a lot of play on the roller wheel from side to side.

I think for the small amount of money, this is a great addition to install sound matting. It's small enough to fit into most places yet large enough to cover large areas efficiently. I'm glad I ended up buying one to aid in my install.

Perfect for applying pressure to bond contact cement on leather work. No need for a HUGE J roller. This is large enough to do the seams and the quality is great!

Used it in a class I taught this last weekend and it was a hit with my students! The only thing is that the screws are always loose in the items so you should always tighten them before using the tool.

MOSISO MacBook Pro 13 Case 2018 2017 2016 Release A1989/A1706/A1708, Plastic Flower Pattern Hard Shell & Keyboard Cover & Screen Protector Compatible Newest Mac Pro 13 Inch, Peony on Black Base

I had read some reviews that discussed that the case did not fit. I was nervous to purchase the case but due to having my new MacBook Pro for only 5 days and already having a scratch on it I was desperate. I purchased the case because I felt it was very pretty. I did not know that it also came with a keyboard cover and a screen protector. I put the case on and I, like others, struggled with the bottom. It kept sliding off. I knew this was not how it was supposed to fit so I kept playing around with it. Finally I saw the very small tabs the hook on the back near the hinge. You have to hook them on first before hooking the tabs in the front. Once I did this it fit like a glove. I love the rubberized feel of the case and the fact it is transparent enough to see the Apple logo of the computer. I do not care for the keyboard cover. It fits perfect, I'm just picky about how things feel and the fact that its silicone is not something I find pleasant. I will say the screen protector is very nice. It fit perfect and has only a few very small air bubbles but I don't mind them since they are not noticeable at all when I am using my computer. Over all this is a perfect purchase. I will say this case is not something that is going to protect your computer if its dropped but If you are looking for something to keep your MacBook from getting scratched this is a perfect case.

I'll be honest, I was skeptical about this case. I was worried it was going to look cheap and likely pixelated so I was fully prepared to return it. Pleasantly surprised does not even begin to say how happy I am with this purchase! LOVE the case, it's classy, the flowers are very clear and the case is a touch on the transparent side so you can still see the Apple logo, which I like. This also came with a screen protector (a bonus since I really only wanted the case) - I'm not a pro at sticking the screen protector so the fingerprint in the corner is totally my own fault. The protector fit perfectly though and even has a little cutout for the camera. The other bonus was the keyboard cover...which I'm still trying to decide if I'm a fan of or not. The flower detail makes it a little difficult to see the keys (not a problem as long as you're familiar with your keyboard) and I've never used a keyboard protector in the past because I'm not crazy about the extra thickness of the silicone. The only reason I didn't let the keyboard cover affect my review is because I considered it another "bonus item" with the case. It also came with a 4 extra cushion pads for the bottom cover (nice because my last case lost all of its "feet" and would slip around everywhere). All in all, 10/10 would buy again even if it was just the case. It's a great value and, because of that, even if the case isn't terribly durable, I feel confident I'll get my money's worth out of it.

I placed this on my Mac Pro as soon as I got it in the mail. It is really cute. It snapped on easily and I think the top of my computer is protected. The bottom fits nicely too BUT I use a USB hub and, with the bottom cover on, my hub will not fit snugly to the computer and is useless. Without the hub, everything fits perfectly. I wish that side was cut out as I am sure others will experience a similar issue. ***update*** I was able to use a straight razor and cut out the portion of the bottom cover so I can use the USB hub. It works perfectly and I feel like my computer is completely protected. You can't tell that the portion near the hub was removed.

Review Update: 9-8-18
I really have enjoyed using this cover and the skin so far. The only small thing that I have noticed is there is a tiny bit of "give" with the bottom left side where I can feel it move back into place just a tad. I just checked the other side as well and it seems about the same. I would definitely buy this product again!
_______________________
My initial review:
I just received this product yesterday and I wanted to write an initial review for anyone who is researching this product.

First, I chose the dandelion print with the black background. I have a 13" MacBook Pro (A1706). My cover fits well and the bottom and top are both secure. The quality of the cover is very nice with a smooth texture - not a hard plastic feel like the ones I have seen in local stores. The quality of the print is clear and crisp.

I will update my review as a little more time goes by. My other concern when researching which product to buy was that the case might scratch or damage my MBP. I followed the instructions to put it on (which is a no brainer) and I believe that with this type of design, I am hopeful that it will not cause any type of damage. I carefully removed the top portion as instructed just to check as well and everything looked fine.

Con- (possible)
The only con that I foresee with the design that I chose is that the black MAY wear over time so that you can see what I call "wear hotspots." In other words you may start to see discoloration in the areas where you consistently hold or open the laptop.

One last thing, the keyboard skin fits perfectly and I do not feel that it creates any issues whatsoever with the functionality of my typing.

Hope this helps someone who may be on the fence. :)

Got this to cover/protect my new MacBook Pro (new to me.). I love the design and how the keyboard cover matches. I do wish that the keyboard cover also covered the top row of keys (I know its so it works with the Touch Bar model.).

The keyboard cover fit is just a little off, leaving a bump at the bottom that I cannot get rid of, but I can deal. I wish the top cover had a spot for the apple to show through and the case was more translucent, but after searching for a design I loved, this hit the mark the best. *It came with stand stickers that I'm not quite sure what to do with. I'm also not adding the screen protector because I'm afraid of messing it up.

Super happy with my purchase; the case feels durable and protective. It did take me a second to snap on the bottom, but after some close inspection, I was able to pop everything in place with no problem. The keyboard cover is beautiful but not entirely transparent and the print quality isn't the best I've ever seen. Check out the customer pics — they are awesome and prepared me to deal with this. In person, I like it better than I thought I would. Do note that it will not cover your function keys if you have them.

Apparently, I didn't read the item description very closely, because the case also comes with a screen protector! (Taking a look now, it is even in the picture, but I was more interested in the other pieces.) That said, I might take it off: it is a bit too reflective for my taste, I can't get all of the air bubbles out, and I somehow got a crumb stuck underneath it. As shown in the picture, it's the kind with the two tabs: one is peeled to reveal a sticky surface, the other is peeled afterward to keep it all tidy. These stress me out in general (you get one shot; once in a lifetime — knees weak, palms are sweaty) and the first tab isn't in a place that makes it easy to line everything up. However, it is a very nice touch and they even included a little microfiber cloth. Super thoughtful, because you'll probably need it.

The case itself has an awesome powdery matte sort of feel to it and is slightly transparent to let the Apple logo show through. As noted before, it seems very sturdy and fits the laptop well. There are little white feet on the bottom case, of which an extra set is included. I don't anticipate needing them anytime soon but find their inclusion to be reassuring, a message that Mosiso expects me to use this case for a long time.

 I gave a 4 star because I feel like the bottom piece is a bit flimsy. With that being said, the bottom is always (hopefully!) on a surface so it is not a deal breaker for me. It is super easy to put on or take off. I wanted something that was going to liven up my silver MacBook that I just got and it fits really well. I love the key covers and they stay on nicely. The M button is a little mis aspen but it docent effect that way it function so I am alright with it. over all it is worth the price and is super cute!!

The case is gorgeous and fits nicely! It can be a little tricky to apply the screen protector, but I didn't have any problems. I suggest turning on your webcam and then it's much easier to line the screen protector up. The only problem I have with this is the keyboard cover. It doesn't fit too well and takes a little while to mold to the shape of the keys. Also, I've been using it for a couple weeks now and the color is already starting to fade on keys that I use regularly.

I really wanted to love this product and give it a 5 star review. The print is AMAZING. It really is a beautiful cover. My only real problem with is is the bottom portion is only attached on the front side which means that the back portion is a bit flimsy and doesn't hold that great. I do not plan to take my laptop out too, too much so I think that it will be okay, but I wish it had prongs on both the front and the back of the bottom portion.

UPDATE: There are clasps on the bottom portion, they just take a bit of maneuvering to click into place. But now that they are in place, this case is absolutely wonderful! No complaints from me!

This macbook cover is beautiful and fits perfectly against my laptop (pretty thin). The black is semi-translucent and the flowers look painted on beautifully. It comes with a cute keyboard cover that fits perfectly without any airbubbles against the keyboard. I didn't realize that it came with a screen protector as well. However, it is not of the greatest quality, it formed many air bubbles on my laptop screen and it took me a while to get 80% of them out. However, there are a few small air bubbles on there and the screen protector has some points in which it was pinched making it not a smooth protector unfortunately. Other than that, the laptop case is as expected and pretty!
