 Pretty good, April 6, 2009
This game is fun and it does offer great diet and fitness tips that you have to "unlock" by accumulating enough activities. However, I would recommend NOT using it with the Wii Fit balance board (they are compatible) to get the best workout. Since you obviously cannot run or jump on the balance board, the only way to perform the activites in the game (like jogging or jumping through tires) is to shift your weight around on the board. It's really hard to break a sweat by shifting your weight from one foot to the other, even if you're doing it as fast as you can.

Wood 5-pc. TV Tray Set - Black

Very nice, March 26, 2009
I, too, am glad I didn't read the reviews for this! I bought it in-store. It does have some dings or whatever in the wood but I would agree with those who called it "shabby chic". The tray tables are sturdy, the finish is easy to clean, and the stand was put together easily and in just about 15 minutes. These are really great for using to have dinner or snacks in front of the TV, but the trays are also sturdy enough that I feel comfortable placing my laptop on one or allowing my son to color or play with his trucks on one. However, setting up and closing up the trays is best done by an adult because they tend to resist at first and then suddenly slide quickly, which could potentially pinch fingers.

 Nice, March 9, 2009
We've had this for a couple years now. It was first used to hold our son's baby toys and then graduated to holding blankets/throw pillows once the toy collection got too large. It has held up nicely and while it is probably more utilitarian than attractive, it is still a nice peice and very worth the money.

Adorable!, October 11, 2008
I so love these boots! They are very warm and comfortable, and they are trendy without being over-the-top. I actually thought mine fit about right and didn't run big, but if you are a half size I would definitely recommend going down rather than up. These are a great purchase!

Very pretty, October 11, 2008
I like this sweater. It is the perfect weight and I like the ribbing on the cuffs. However, I definitely think that the sleeves are too tight. I wouldn't say I have extra-chubby arms because I have this sweater in several colors and they all seem to do that for me. Still, I would buy it again because knits usually seem to stretch out a bit and the price is very nice :)

 I'm not sure about these, October 11, 2008
I bought this shirt in a few colors. They have a pretty nice weight and a good stretch to them, and the v-neck is modest, but I'm not sure they're sized right. They are puffy around the torso and the sleeves are way too tight. Maybe I'm shaped weird, who knows? Either way I would not buy this again.

It doubles as a toy!, October 11, 2008
OK, not really, but I was shamelessly amused by how cool this trash can is. You hold some garbage over it and it opens; move your hand away and it closes. SO NEAT! It's much more sanitary than the kind you have to push open. The batteries have lasted a long time so far and are still going strong. I love the stainless finish and the base is very sturdy. I have not had any problems with the inner ring. It holds the bag in place just fine as long as I make sure it's in there properly. Over all I give this a huge thumbs up and would highly recommend it.

Cutest boots EVER!, October 11, 2008
OMG, I totally love these boots! They are just the right height and surprisingly comfortable considering their style. They are a soft, suede-y brown and I adore the little button on the sides. I would say they run pretty true to size, at least mine did. For the price these are an AWESOME buy!!! A must have!

I love this!, October 3, 2008
It is cute and just the right size for an entryway. It has lots of sturdy baskets, which we use to keep things like hats and gloves, umbrellas, sunglasses, library books . . . it is SO useful and adorable, I don't know how I got along without it! We did not have any problems with the finish on this shelf. All the pieces were pretty much perfect. I was also able to put it together myself and it only took me about 30 minutes. A great purchase, we are very happy.

Softest blanket EVER!, October 1, 2008
I have never in my life had a blanket as soft as this one! It is absolute heaven to snuggle up in, the perfect blanket for movie night on the sofa :) For me, it has held up very well in the wash (with a toddler in the house, it has been washed a lot!) and after the first two or three washings it had mostly stopped shedding. Just a note: some reviews said this is more a maroon than a true red like in the photo, and I would definitely agree. If you're looking for a true red blanket this isn't quite it. Still, A FANTASTIC BUY!
