Art Asylum Enterprise-A
By A Customer
Like everyone else, I've always wanted the Enterprise-A rendered accurately, but with some fun features to play with. If you remember the electronic version that came out around 1979-1980 (Star Trek: The Motion Picture), it was well-done, but lacking the realism and detail of the ship depicted in the movie.

Art Asylum's replica is faithful to the movie Enterprise. The "aztec paneling" is molded, not painted on, but it still gives it a level of detail not normally seen on a toy or replica in this price range. The paintwork on the secondary hull is outstanding. Building one of the Enterprise model kits with the same paint scheme would be near impossible except for the expert modeller. To top it all off, the sound and light effects make this a fun toy that I just could not put down.

As much fun as it is, it truly looks outstanding on display. It is a fine replica and the price is truly amazing for what you get. I have to admit that even when displayed, I could not resist the tempatation to activate the light and sound effects over and over!

The only reason I gave the toy a "4" for durability is the display stand. It is very dramatic and goes well with the Enterprise. When I was assembling it, I was very concerned that the "neck" of the stand may snap off. I had seen this Enterprise replica on display at a recent Star Trek convention and indeed this was the case - it had broken off leaving the ball-joint stuck in the secondary hull. On the other hand, Art Asylum does give you an extra cover in case you would prefer a more accurate hull. The ball-joint does give you more options on how to display the ship at various angles.

This is one of those purchases that I could not wait to be delivered once I had ordered it. I was very happy when it arrived and very pleased with the work Art Asylum has done with such an "iconic" sci-fi vessel.

The best I've ever seen
By Roger A. Mccoy
I have so many versions of so many Enterprises that I can't keep track of them all... Playmates models with lights and sounds, model kits... all of them pale compared to this.

Art Asylum has released the best Enterprise I have ever seen. The detail is amazing. There are lights in places I have never seen lights before (good places, too). Six different sounds. No visible buttons for the sounds -- you push down the bridge in order to activate them. Looks amazing in the dark. Has a nice display with the Starfleet delta insignia as a base. Mounts well at hundreds of different angles. I was able to adjust the angle so it looks great in my office whether you look at it from my chair, the door, or the window, inspiring jealous amazement from a fellow Trekkie/Trekker. Don't want a hole in the bottom for the base? The bottom piece is swappable -- it comes with a piece with no hole so the ship looks virtually seamless when it's not on the stand. What more could you possibly want? The Enterprise-A may be the best of the Enterprises, and ArtAsylum may be the first to truly do her justice.

Buy this toy. You will be the envy of your friends, or at least the ones who matter. Men will fear you. Women will want you. Or if you prefer, women will fear you and men will want you. It will get you promoted, help you lose weight, and grant you immortality.*

Highly recommended.

Star Trek III damage!
By Samuel S. Garland
This looks great! That being said, the majority of the damage from this incarnation of the Enterprise is from the THIRD Star Trek movie. All that damage on the dish happens as the Enterprise begins to self-destruct. Enjoy!

Don't live up to marketing hype.
By John Prentice
Below is my initial review of these speakers. It's still basically true, but as the frustration with the initial install has faded, my estimation of the speakers has risen (a little). What seemed a thin and limited sound at the time now seems very clean. Just with very little bass compared to some other speakers. When things break on install, you do have to wonder, "who's fault was it, really...". I'll just say that the other speakers I bought at the same time had a much heavier set of clips...----------I am extremely disappointed with these speakers. If you read the product description carefully, you are basically getting a pair of smallish 2.5 in drivers / speakers which are only capable of a thin, limited sound. All the rest ("Virtually Invisible", "Articulated Array configuration", "Stereo Everywhere", "proprietary ported enclosure" etc.) is great marketing, but it does little to improve the sound of the speakers and a lot to increase the cost. There is no Bose waveguide technology here, for example (don't be fooled by the big plastic box hanging off the side). Limited bass? Try zero bass.To make matters worse, the unusual design made these speakers harder to install (I have a lath and plaster ceiling), while the "virtually invisible" design translates into "make a perfect cut because there is no margin for error". Finally, part of the mechanism designed to hold the speakers in place simply snapped off while I was tightening it.In contrast, I bought a pair of Polk Audio speakers at the same time for 1/3 the price, they were a breeze to install, and they sound great. I walk from one room to another and cringe when I go from listening to the Polk Audios to the Bose.

Great for home theater, poor for whole-house audio
By T. Chambers
I've had these speakers for 3 years in a whole-house audio setup as in-ceiling speakers. The clarity as you'd expect from Bose is great, however if you want good bass response nothing compares to a large woofer. I'm actually in the process of replacing 2 out of 3 pairs with typical in-ceiling 8" woofers to get more bass in my living room and bedroom with high ceilings.I highly recommend these for in-wall home theater speakers with a separate subwoofer.I do not recommend these for in-ceiling stereo speakers.

In-the-wall speakers
By Alexander Kogan
These were a husbandly-compromise, as my wife was adamant about not having a big bass unit in the newly refurbished living room. They're not quite as great as advertised, especially on the bass, but they do have as small a profile as you could want, especially if you paint the grills (and you get a choice of round or rectangular) the same color as the wall. The only objection is that although I used the Bose mounting plates before sheetrocking, they do not lie absolutely flush with the wall. However, the sound is pretty good, all things considered.

Ominous start
By Daniel Kaylor
I ordered the unit and it took 26 days to arrive. Assembly was straightforward and the fit and finish was fine. Hooked the unit up to a manual switch and it was underpowered for the house. After much effort, it was clear that the generator pumped out a solid 100 volts ac, not 120. It couldn't even run a handtool at full power. HMMM.... 10,000 watts, eh? Next came Porter Cable NATIONAL service. It took them 48 hours to respond and when they did, it was basically to say its not their problem -try the local service center to see if they fix generators. The local service place was more sympathetic, but that doesn't put power in your lines. I am probably going to be stuck lugging a 350 lb. brand new generator to see if they can find out what's wrong. I'll give the generator 2 stars on looks alone. But I would much prefer a generator that is useable and that has a service crew that is even minimally interested in helping. One way or another I will get this thing to work, but for something that costs over $2ooo, I would have expected a generator that had been inspected by someone other than me.

Excellent generator
By Wilson H. Carroll
I needed a generator for farm use that would also be big enough to power my home in Jackson, MS in the event of another weather disaster. I have a large home powered by two separate AC units, so required 10,000 watts minimum. Also, after conferring with over a dozen people who purchased different generators after Katrina, I knew it had to be powered by Honda.None of local warehouse stores (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.) carried anything nearly big enough so my internet research focused on Honda-powered generators exclusively. This bad boy fits the bill perfectly. The folks at Amazon were very helpful and it arrived two days earlier than they said it would. No problems at all with setup and it runs like a dream. I've already used it to power a heavy duty stick welder and associated equipment in the deep backwoods. Beware, though -- it a very heavy piece of equipment which really requires a dedicated trailer.

Everything was good except the hose
By olajoe
So you are thinking about this kit. It's awesome, buy it. I've worked in Hawaii, Colorado, and with framers from California. For every, paslode, senco, bostitch, portercable, harbor freight model on the job there are twice as many hitachis running at the same time.If you are looking for a deal, um.....I don't know maybe this is it. If you are looking for tools that will keep up all day long, this kit will and more except the hose- lose it quick. I'm buying the polyurethane 1/4" x 100' it's all over here in Aurora, CO and I've worked with it in the middle of winter- it's a must have.Good gun and compressor.

Great
By Erik Sieh
I have had this nailer and compressor for about a year and have gone through over 4 thousand nails. I have had no problems with the gun. The only problem encountered was with the compressor. It would not start up when connected to any extension cord. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a high quality nailer and compressor.

Great for any size job
By J. Mclaws
OK, so first I have to say that I got the combo from HD for $350! that's the best price i've ever seen for this package, and for that price, I couldn't pass it up. I just finished a small project with it, and now it's waiting until I get permits to frame up an addition to the house. The compressor is a great, little, and strong-running oiled motor, the nail gun is pretty basic, but does whatever you need it to do, and the hose and accessories are exactly what you need. The ONLY thing I have to mention is that the compressor draws a LOT of current on start up... so make sure to have it plugged in to a circuit with nothing else running (especially when it's cold), or you run the risk of tripping breakers all day long. But when it's running, it has no problem keeping up with you. LOVE IT!

Nice bag...

I have several different bags that I use depending on how much I have to carry. I bought this one for when I travel lite. I have a T43 laptop that fits into the case without a problem.My only negative comment is that some of the interior pockets are a little hard to get to. Other than that, it's good.

I really want to love this item - but it has a serious, dangerous flaw
By Jessica Spurling
This *seems* to be the perfect knife block. It's attractive, the size is perfect, and it holds my knives just right.. But even though I'd been warned about this by another amazon reviewer and had thought I'd carefully set my knives in it to make it balanced more heavily toward the back, one time when removing a knife the whole thing tipped forward, spilling all my knives out onto the counter. Thank goodness the knife block was back in the corner and not near the edge of the counter at the time, and thank goodness I'm fairly nimble & coordinated and managed to keep all the knives on the counter & none of them on my feet, without getting cut. I've got several very sharp knives.. this was a pretty scary moment! I am worried about the rest of my family - if someone else gets hurt I'll feel somewhat responsible as I chose this knife block, nixing others as too ugly, too massive (well now I see why massive is perhaps a good idea for a knife block!) or not holding the right number of knives. This knife block is in every other way perfect for what I want - but unless I can come up with a way to make it more stable, I won't be able to keep using it. I'm going to try making the back part of the base heavier. Maybe I can attach something at the back/bottom that will hold it down. If I figure something out that I'm happy with, I'll update my review.

Attractive but...
By R. Anderson
I was excited to find a block that would accomodate all my knives without damage, and was attractive to look at and take up less counter space. When it arrived my first thought was that it seemed very lightweight and less than stable. For the price, I expected something sturdier. But, I went ahead and put in my knives (ten of them) and knife steel. I have top quality knives that are fairly heavy in weight. The information from most sellers as well as the maker indicates it will hold 40 knives or other utensils. It won't come even close to that unless you are storing tiny items (perhaps silverware sized). While it may technically have slots for forty items, due to needing some space for the handles to fit, as well as just allocating room for the thickness of the blades so as not to have to cram any in there, I could perhaps use every third slot or so. Having put all eleven items into the stand, I let go. It immediately tipped forward and fell onto the counter. All of the heavier knives were placed at the top, all the small ones at the bottom. After removing everything and putting them back, spacing the knives far more closely than I would like (makes getting them out and putting them back a hassle as the handles are now very close together), it will stand on its own, but I certainly wouldn't call it stable and it makes me a bit nervous. If I put anything in the lower quarter of the block (even a paring knife) it tips forward again. Maybe I can attach it to some sort of platform to stabilize it? Nice idea, poor execution, and definitely a case of form prioritized over function. If you want something pretty for your five lightweight knives, buy it. If (like me) you want something that is also functional and sturdy, don't waste the money.

Great product!
By MM
The only other knife block that gives you complete control over the knife sizes is the Kaboosh, which I really disliked. This takes up minimal counter space, is easy to use and is easy to keep organized.I just ordered a second one and I was a little frustrated that it is a slightly different angling than the one I bought last year. For the angles to match I needed to put 2 rubber bumpers on the bottom of the new one, but that is nothing negative about the block. It was so useful that I wanted a second one; I keep Kosher, and can have 2 knife blocks in less width on my counter than a single wooden one.Easy to use and fully customizable to any knife size, and it takes up less counter space and the interior is washable if it gets grimy in the future. It is a bit pricey, ut the convenience is worth the expense, especially since it is a one time cost.

Great Design
By Tropicana Jones
I bought this as a gift for someone who is extremely picky about kitchen accoutrements. It was well received and fits in with the rest of the decor and items. It is not currently being used for bread, so I can't speak to that, but the design is wonderful and it keeps crackers and spices fresh.

I love this futuristic looking bread box. It does not look like an ordinary bread box but it does an excellent job keeping the content very fresh.Very roomy for a loaf of bread. Easy access. Plastic exterior is sturdy enough to last years. (Not that you can put anything on top)
