Egyptian Cotton 1000 Thread Count Solid Sateen Bed Sheet Set (Black) King.
High thread count sheet sets are a bit pricey compared to cheap sheets, but after getting used to sleeping on a good set of sheets, the 300 thread count sheet sets feel sort of like sandpaper. Regardless of who you get them from, a set like this is one of the "little luxuries" that can make your life a little bit better. And for the price, it's really not a bad deal. You can spend this much on a single nice dinner out, and these will last for years, so I think it's worth it.

Pinzon Hotel Satin Stitch 400-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton Sateen 18-Inch Decorative Pillow
Since the pillows are decorative, I didn't wash it before putting it on the bed (I wanted the cripiness of the fabric without the work :-). The pillows were a nice topper to the whole collection. The embroidery on the top is very well done elevated, smooth with no snags, and the bottom side is cleanly finished. The edges sharp, no excessive puckering.
Just like the hotels.
Great value for this item.Pillow is a smaller size of one bought from Pottery Barn. Colors match exactly, and the quality is excellent. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a small sized bedroom pillow.

I bought this pillow for my dad because he was always waking up with a really stiff neck and his regular, soft pillow wasn't giving him the support he needed. I got him a pillow for his birthday and a month later he said the pillow was pretty firm but he gave it a chance and hasn't had to go to the chiropractor since. He did mention that you should read the packaging first because he didn't do it right away and didn't realize you kind of need to "break in" the pillow with your hands. Overall, he is very pleased and has slept better ever since he started using it.Read Best Reviews of Foot Levelers Pillo-Pedic "4 in 1" Design Cervical Pillows - Regular Here
Needed a break-in period, so I sat on it for 3 days (on the recliner). After that it was exactly what my neck needed. No more pins and needles in my arms at night.Want Foot Levelers Pillo-Pedic "4 in 1" Design Cervical Pillows - Regular Discount?
My chiropractor recommended this pillow because I was often waking up with serious neck pain. After sleeping on this pillow for years, I have never had a problem with neck pain. I get a new pillow every year because they do wear down and will not give as much support. I still go to the chiropractor for maintenance adjustments but I credit this pillow for keeping me in alignment.Sunday, April 6, 2014

5/6/2012this blanket does not look very nice after washing even on gentle cycle.The quality is horrible in this blanket. It leaves fuzz everywhere, and their were already snags when we took it out of the package. Would not recommend this at all.

This is a pretty throw and feels very soft. It is aqua and brown not blue and brown. Lucky for me I can use it in another room. Just be aware when you order that it is not blue.Read Best Reviews of Rizzy Home 50-Inch by 60-Inch Throw Here

Buy Egyptian Cotton 600 Thread Count Solid Sheet Set Now
I don't normally write reviews, but these sheets are awful. Any lint or animal hair in the vicinity immediately attaches itself and cannot be brushed off. Also, the pleated top edge dries crooked and twisted so they look messy on the bed. Stay away from these sheets!Read Best Reviews of Egyptian Cotton 600 Thread Count Solid Sheet Set Here
Product has a good feel to it and the color is exactly what show, in most places. The top sheet and one pillow case have areas of discoloration as well as a few pulled threads in both sheets.Want Egyptian Cotton 600 Thread Count Solid Sheet Set Discount?
We enjoy really nice sheets! It's our secret pleasures. We have sheets that were bought in Canada 400 count. They are as fresh as new! Good sheets get softer and softer with time.

Sangean RCR-5 Digital AM/FM Clock Radio
- Digital tuner with 10 station presets
- Dual alarms with "human wake" buzzer
- Set recurring alarms for daily, weekends, and weekdays
- Sleep timer (15-120 minutes)
- Includes AC Power Adapter
Display
Here is where the RCR-5 truly shines, as it incorporates a backlit LCD with adjustable intensity: one may adjust the backlight to suit your needs, so you have a perfectly legible, yet not too bright display (at night) which can never be "washed out", even in direct sunlight. The display even has a clever feature whereby it will illuminate to full intensity when any of the buttons are pressed, after which it returns to the user's preset intensity after ten seconds. As you can see from the product photos, the display is of a soft, warm color, most conducive to a good sleeping environment; other clock radios using bright blue or green illumination, IMHO, should be avoided if you want to get any sleep.
Auxiliary Input
Very useful for listening to my podcasts at night; when an external source is attached, the Band button will cycle through AM/FM/AU; when none is attached, only AM/FM are available, thereby eliminating "clutter" for those who do not wish to enable this feature. (Note: I'm old-school, and prefer using this method over a "Dockable" iPod solution, as I prefer to completely run my iPod's battery source to zero before recharging...)
Flexibility in Programming
Only found on more expensive clock radios, this model will allow you to use the "Sleep" feature to listen to a particular station (or podcast with the Auxiliary feature) at night, and then to wake to radio on a different station. In addition, all alarms allow Daily, Mon-Fri, or Single, with the Audible Alarm using a gentle "ramp-up" feature.
Reception and Speaker Quality
The radio's receiver portion of this product is very good, rivaled by only my Sony short wave receiver (a great radio, by the way!); what looks like a 3-inch speaker provides a very warm, intelligible output, very suitable for the spoken word, adequate for music. If you need a strong system for powerful music, I would suggest purchasing an additional desktop speaker setup (such as for a computer) which can be attached to the headphone output by means of a standard mini-jack connection.
Finally, a no-nonsense Sleep function
Sangean has cleverly incorporated the Sleep function into the Power button (which is gently illuminated when the radio's off); to turn the radio on or off, press the button. To use the Sleep feature, press and hold the same button to select up to 120 minutes. Simple, effective, "it just works".
Final Recommendation
Well, what more can I say? This product works for me (and I'm purchasing three more for gifts) and has a lot going for it, including high value (very reasonably priced!). Is there anything that you should be aware of? Yes:
> As described in the previous customer's entry, setting the alarm may require a few extra key-strokes, as this product offers many options when it comes to waking by either the alarm or the radio; if you do not need all of these features, you may wish to consider something of simpler means. That being said, it took me only about 22 seconds to set the alarm; for me, it was relatively intuitive and logical.
> The built-in battery back up feature only works for about ten minutes worth of backup, according to the manual; in my neck of the woods, this is not a big issue, but should be noted if you experience many nighttime blackouts where you are located.
> Even though this model is referred to as an "RCR-5", it should be noted that it does not employ an automatic time synchronization feature as is found on Sangean's higher end clock radios. (Not a big issue for me, and may actually be desirable for those of us who prefer to set our clocks 5, 10, or 15 minutes fast to "keep us on time"!)
I hope this helps you in making the right decision! All the best!

I have to say that I'm quite impressed by the QUALITY of the Sangean RCR-5 clock radio. Quite a bit of great detail has already been mentioned in a fine way by a previous reviewer. I just have to say that I'm really impressed at how clear the radio reception is...absolutely NO drift, it locks onto the radio frequency and stays there! And the sound from the speaker (even if it is just a single speaker) is rather impressive...I've never heard a speaker sound so clear, crisp, and distinct, whether it be music or spoken word! I also like how smooth the volume control feels. It keeps great time with an easy-to-view display, and wakes you up comfortably with its "humane waking system." Some people have noted that the settings for the clock are too complex and complicated, but I frankly didn't experience any problems in that sense. Of course, it does not have the atomic clock updating, nor does it have a built-in cd player, but it does have the auxillary input, if you wanted to connect a cd player or mp3 player. Overall, I have to say that certainly alot of thought has gone into the designing of the Sangean RCR-5...this certainly is NO ordinary clock radio...it's a finely-crafted instrument!Read Best Reviews of Sangean RCR-5 Digital AM/FM Clock Radio Here
I started realizing the quality of this radio as soon as I held the box it came in. It's well packaged in heavy cardboard throughout. Take the radio out and look it over; you can tell this is not your everyday clock radio you find in all the stores. It's built solid and the buttons and controls feel solid. The sound is much better than any clock radio I've ever owned in this price range. The display is easy to see from all angles and not too brite. The amber is soft on your eyes unlike some of the blues and greens out there. Setting the alarms is slightless less intuitive then it could be but it's easy once you do it a few times (the reason for the 4 out of 5 stars). Products like this are few and far between these days. High quality and does what it is made to do very well without looking like an alien aircraft with unessessary bells and whistles. Very possibly the best engineered clock radio for under $50. Im very happy with my purchase.Want Sangean RCR-5 Digital AM/FM Clock Radio Discount?
Based on reviews by others I had hoped this little radio would satisfy my needs for good AM and FM reception with decent sound. Sound was tinny but using a set of computer speakers offset that issue. Reception very spotty for both both AM and FM stations and the little wire antenna didn't help much. Didn't appear to be any way to boost reception by attaching another antenna. Since the product didn't live up to expectations, I tried to return it, but was refused. I didn't retain the plastic bags covering the radio and plug in the box and the box had a couple of tears so the package wasn't in pristine condition. No damages, scars, etc. to the radio itself so sounds to me like supplier won't accept returns once you open their box which implies a no return policy. If I had bought this locally at Wal-Mart or Target or about any other store, a return would have been accepted.This is a terrific clock radio despite a couple of drawbacks for insomniac listening (knocking 1 star off the rating). Features I require in a clock radio (beyond the obvious) are: earphone jack (my husband isn't interested in listening along with me ;), sleep timer, digital tuning (having to fiddle with station drift would only serve to wake me up more); preset stations (again, the less fiddling in the middle of the night, the better); and dimable display (I keep it just bright enough to read the display at night--this is pretty dim, doesn't disturb sleep). This radio has all that and more; I also like the small size of the radio and amber light of the display.That said, here's what I dislike: when you press and hold the power-on button to use the sleep timer, the display becomes painfully bright, "only" about 15 seconds, but I find it extremely annoying. I'm working on developing a feel for how long to hold the button down without having to look at the display so I can just keep my eyes closed.
The other thing I dislike: the nap timer button is right next to the power-on/sleep timer button, making it very easy to accidentally hit the nap timer button without realizing it while feeling around for the power button, thus treating yourself and any sleep partner to the alarm a little while later. Ugh. Did that twice, then built a little "A-frame" of card stock & taped it over the nap timer button so I don't hit it by accident again. Note the power/sleep timer button *is* dimly (nicely) illuminated, so the nap timer button can be avoided if you don't mind opening your eyes, lifting your head up to see the power button, and focusing your attention on hitting nothing but the power button.
It's too bad the battery backup isn't good for more than a few minutes; hopefully this won't prove to be a significant problem. I didn't find setting the clock, alarms, or digital presets difficult, though I did need to use the manual to figure it out.

TUSH CUSH Seat Cushion - Small Home Office Car Compu Computer Ergonomic Orthopedic Chair Cushion
PROS:
1. Cushion is an attractive beige velour that looks nice with my office decor.
2. It is lightweight and has a handy carry handle.
3. It has a zipper so you can remove the cover and wash it if you spill coffee in your chair as I have done a couple of times.
4. BEST OF ALL: Tush Cush is made in the U.S.A.
CONS:
1. You have to position yourself just right on the cushion, or it will be really uncomfortable.
2. It feels too firm and hurts my legs after an hour or so.
3. Somewhat pricey for what it is.
Would I recommend this to someone? I don't know that I would recommend this particular cushion, but I would mention it as one of many that someone might consider. I will probably look for another cushion for myself and keep this one for my car.I've had on again, off again tailbone pain for YEARS now. This past bout has been longer than usual and more painful than any other (going on my 5th straight month of pain). I've had a standard donut cushion on the ready for the last 7-10 years, but it has always required some shifting and contortion to work on my office seat, car seat, etc. Sit on that cushion wrong and OUCH! It hits the exact area you're hoping to avoid.
My Tush Cush arrived today (faster than expected) and provided INSTANT relief. A much better option for those suffering from tailbone pain, this cushion is cut out perfectly to avoid painful pressure and fits perfectly into my office chair and car seat. The cushion is firm, without being hard and the dark gray helps it blend into the surroundings so it isn't screaming to office mates, "This woman has something wrong with her rear!" perfect! :)I purchased this as a gift for my boyfriend. His work requires him to sit in front of a computer for around 10 hours a day, and he was always complaining about lower back pain. His chair is at the normal right angle, and they say that it can be more comfortable to sit on a sloped surface, so I thought it was worth a shot. Since he has been using this product, his back has been much happier and he has had an easier time working. Contrary to my fears, he does not slide off his chair, despite sitting on downward slope. As an extra special treat, I am asked for fewer back rubs, so I win too!
I recommend this product to anyone who tends to experience lower back pain from sitting for extended periods of time.The "Tush Cush" is fabulous! I first bought one for sciatic nerve pain, which subsided with use of the Tush Cush. I just bought another after loaning my original to friends following hip replacement surgery. This time, I bought two one for my office & one for my car! The Tush Cush is very well made & this size is perfect for an office chair or car seat. It's what you need if you sit for long periods of time!I bought this cushion for sitting in week long workshops. I thought it would help me have better posture and make it more comfortable to sit in chairs that don't have enough padding. Well, I just finished a workshop and I experienced a completely different kind of pain using this cushion. My coccyx/tailbone became so inflamed or sore stop I had to stop using anything. I suspect it's because of the cutout but maybe the cushion is the wrong density. I'm 6ft and weigh 175 so it's not like I have an unusual body. And I'm not physically out of shape. Unfortunately, I bought this thing too far in advance of my meetings and am past the return period. So, if you decide to take the chance on this, make sure you test it out for several days on your own tush right away.

Original Contour Pillow - Standard
Edit 10/16/12: The pillow is now flat. There is no egg carton shape to it anymore. I have to add another pillow on top of it. I will be ordering Pinzon Basics Micro Bead Therapy Pillow with Cover. My husband bought this about a month ago and he likes it. Since it hasn't even been a year, I am reducing the rating from 4 stars to 2.

My favorite pillow given me at the end of a hospital stay had the contour shape and egg-crate foam. I finally 'buried' it after about 10 years and had no idea it would be so difficult to replace. When I saw this, I was sure it would be the answer to my 'pillow prayers'! It's too thick to be comfortable except to lay it sideways and place my head on the end. Naturally, this gives very little 'wiggle room' while sleeping.Read Best Reviews of Original Contour Pillow - Standard Here
We have owned the same model Original Contour pillow for over 15 years. GREAT PRODUCT! Each one has lasted almost five years and really nothing's wrong with it when we purchase a new one. We keep the older ones in the guest room and take them with us when we travel. The comfort of these pillows cannot be overstated. There's a reason they're still for sale and popular. We recently tried another memory foam type marketed "best pillow in the world" that was $80. We sent it back after one use.Want Original Contour Pillow - Standard Discount?
I had a stiff neck with a lot of pain that had lasted for over a year. I wasn't sure if the injury occurred in the gym (I'm a bodybuilder) or if it happened while I was sleeping.Regardless, this pillow did the trick. I first tried a cheap knock-off of the contour pillow that I'd purchased at Target. That seemed to help a little, but nothing beyond that. I knew from many years ago that the original Contour Pillow was much firmer and might give my neck the support it needed while sleeping.
Well, I can't recommend this thing enough. If you have chronic neck pain that hinders mobility of your head (I couldn't turn my head to the right), this might really help you. It took a bit of time, but it worked a miracle on my neck injury just when I thought the pain would never go away.
