Juniors' Mossimo® Red: 5-Pocket Flare Jean - Ocean Wash (15R)

 Great jeans!!!, December 2, 2006
I've been wanting a pair of pre-worn jeans for ages but wasn't willing to spend a ton of money on them.
These are great - the price and color are fantastic, and I like the fact that they're not straight leg like most of the expensive ripped-up pairs. My only real complaint is that they are a little too flared... it's a little dramatic for me, but not enough that I'll return them.
They are DEFINITELY not stretch jeans - they're 100% cotton, so I was really worried about the comfort factor. Most womens jeans today have at least 1% spandex for comfort and fit. These are a little crunchy right out of the box, but have them dry cleaned once before you wear them (they'll never shrink if you do, even in the dryer)and wash them with fabric softener and you'll never know the difference.
They run very very small though - I am usually an 11/12 and I had to order a 15 to get them up over my hips.

Solid-Rubber Rain Boots - Starry Sky Dots

 great boots, but expect massive shipping delays, December 2, 2006
Very cute and comfy rainboots... The trim is a blue gray color, and the stars are cute without being overly cutesy. There was a strong rubber smell when I took them out of the box, but nothing that a night of airing out won't fix. They are lined which helps with the comfort and keeps your toes toasty. They do run very large - I am a 8-8.5 and based on other reviews I ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly. Enough room for winter weight socks but still OK with regular socks.
My only real complaint about the boots themselves - the "adjustable strap" is not really as great as it sounds. Being made of rubber, it sticks to the plastic buckle like super glue and requires herculean effort to budge. Good luck doing this without ripping the strap off. I gave up, but fortunately the top of the boots allows me to tuck both my jeans and my non-skinny calves in with no problem.

Cero Spa Soap Pump
 |
|
 Mediocre..., May 18, 2005
This is a very pretty soap pump. I bought it when we redid the bathroom in blue and white, and it goes very well. However, it's not really functional as a soap pump. For some reason, if any soap is allowed to sit inside the spout area, it causes some kind of rust. Of course, if you actually use the thing, you're going to end up with soap sitting in the spout afterwards. The next time you go to use it, you end up with a yucky, stinky green gunk all over your hands. I've tried rinsing it out, and changing soaps - nothing work. Don't waste your money.

Naples 4-pc. Patio Set

Nice patio set..., May 4, 2005
This is a very nice patio set, perfect for a front porch or deck seating area. I bought this for our front porch, and it's worked very well. The cushions are comfortable and the fabric is very attractive, the wicker is a plastic material for easy maintenance and longer life, and the storage table is roomy. My only complaint is that I was looking for a white set, and this is off-white - in my opinion, it should have been under the natural category, not white. I bought it anyway because I wasn't completely positive about the color based on the picture here (colors are frequently deceptive on internet sites), but it is definitely not the crisp white I was looking for. However, I still like it and think it goes well anyway. Good buy.

Simply Classic Wall Cabinet with Doors and Drawers
 |
|
 Not bad..., May 4, 2005
This is a fairly nice cabinet for a bathroom. We have very limited space, so I was looking for something to hang on the wall to give us a little more room for our junk, and this did the trick. It wasn't terribly difficult for my boyfriend to put together, although we did use different hardware than what was provided. My one main complaint is that the back portion is actually two very flimsy pieces of cardboard-like material which come together right down the center of the cabinet, and have a tendency to show the gap between them. My boyfriend put a few extra screws into the wall, and that seems to help by keeping them in place, at least.
