5Love this DVD player!
By A Customer
I own this DVD player and it works beautifully! In response to the previous review with the remote problem, the unit will not accept fuctions at certain times. I was concerned, so I read my instruction manual to determine the problem. It seems that some DVD's will not allow you to perform certain functions. For instance, it might not allow you to fast forward through movie previews. That is not a problem with the XVM555BK, it is built in on the DVD to make you watch them. An easy way to avoid this is to press stop and then just start the movie. As far as movie viewing and sound quality, the unit is AMAZING! I recommend it highly! I listen to CD's on it rather than my old CD player. The convenience of 3 discs is good and the sound quality is great. I was also amazed at the price, less than some single disc DVD players. Thank you Amazon.com! I have really enjoyed the unit!

5Great player for the price.
By A Customer
This is my second DVD player and I am very happy with it. I have owned it since December of 99 and had no problems at all. Problematic DVDs such as The Matrix, Arlington Road and ID4 have all played flawlessly, which cannot be said for many more expensive players. Having 3 trays instead of just 1 is a major advantage to this player in my opinion. If you like to watch bits and pieces of your DVD collection here and there, this is really the selling point of this player, since obviously, it is nice not to have to get up to change DVDs. Overall, I am totally happy with my purchase.

5Great Features -- Great Price
By R Maginn
This was an absolutely great purchase. As far as I'm concerned it can go head-to-head with any of the more expensive models. As the author of the June 30, 2000 review notes, it handles many of the "problematic" titles with a breeze. This is truly a great machine. Another great JVC product. A company, which in my opinion, is leading the market!

2fell apart after 7 months
By Charlotte
JUNE 13 UPDATE: I bought this chair 7 months ago. Today it broke into pieces when I got up. The screws fit into plastic joints is the basic problem. If you buy this chair, don't expect it to last.Overall I like this chair, which I got to try out as a tall person's task chair for someone with back issues. Since the chair is a somewhat interesting and unusual design I will talk in detail about the ergonomics of this chair which apply to me and may not apply to others of different sizes or uses.The seat is plastic but the shape is fairly comfortable and I don't have to worry about the padding wearing out and then sitting against the sharp edge of particle board like my old chair. The front left and right edge do pinch a bit when my feet are not on the foot rest, I'm not able to splay feet out to balance myself very well because of these edges. So I have to sort of put my legs over the edgy part of the front and it does cut off circulation on the bottom of the thigh when sitting like this. I think it is for someone with a more narrow frame. The butt size is fine for me (I'm not fat), but a wider seat front or without the ridges on the sides would work better.The back rest seems fine. It's not something I will use much since I am not using this as a recliner, but it works fine to stop you from falling off the chair, but to be that far back your butt is going to be pressing against the two metal bars. I expect I will be normally sitting more forward in it normally.I wanted skids instead of casters because all the casters nowadays break apart after a year. The skids though are on a bolt attached via a nut that is welded to somewhat thin tubular metal flared at the end. We'll see how that works out in a year, the issue is really the angle of attachment of these things that causes fracturing through the leverage. Someday someone will address caster attachment issues on chairs and figure out how it was done in the old days before all the caster attachments started failing on every (Chinese made) chair in the world. So with the skids they might last longer than casters but I'm not totally sure yet.The big problem is the footrest is not adjustable, it sits on top of a ridge that is where there is a change in diameter in the pneumatic canister. The only height where the foot ring works for me is when fully extended. The big problem here is that foot ring height is extremely dependent on a person's height, leg length, and chair elevation. So it should always be adjustable, it's a big over sight that it is not. Full height though is too tall for what I need, but if I was at a kitchen counter it would probably work OK. Instead I'm at my drafting desk.In the lowest position the height is 22-23". 22" at the base of the seat, 23" at the top since it is curvy. This is in accordance with the specifications which I should have read more closely since I really prefer a base position of 21", but that is my fault for not paying more attention. In the 22" lowest position, the foot rest would only be at a good height for a pretty short person. So in this position I need to touch the floor with my toes instead otherwise the angle between my legs and spine gets to be too acute which is a posture problem leading to back pain. My goal with getting drafting task chairs and having a higher work surface is to be able to keep this angle obtuse (greater than 90°) so that I avoid back pain. If the angle is acute there is a problem. Being at a higher position is what enables the obtuse angle, especially when leaning forward.You'll be amazed at how small the box is that this comes in. Because the seat is not padded they are able to fit everything in very closely in a box that you might think is just the seat only.Overall I am not dissatisfied, though I think the chair would be better the foot ring should be adjustable, the lowest position just 1" lower, and the front of the seat widened, even an inch would help, but maybe a required size of the box was the constraining factor since the seat is what determines the size of the box. Take this in the context of the fact that 100% of office store chairs do not work for me at all and so this chair for me is better than all of those. I tend to shift and do different sitting positions during the day. On this one I can perch on the front edge of the seat, something not possible on most office store chairs where I'd just slip off doing this. I think though I am going to get a second drafting chair and switch between them every few days.

3No frills high seat bar stool
By Ian Bowles
I bought this to use while I use my computer which sits on my breakfast bar. This is about one of the cheapest bar stools around for a reason. I gave it three stars because its not bad enough to be a two but not really a 3. more like 6.5/10Remember those hard plastic chairs they had in school? Well this basically one of those with a push up cylinder and a foot rest. The seat is firm and hard. The minimal back-rest sits low and is not all that comfortable to rest your back against. Again for the price, compared to other bar stools I wasn't expecting a lot.The cylinder, my main concern when purchasing this, seems good enough. It loses maybe a half inch when I sit my 5'11'' 175lb frame down but otherwise seems sturdy.It takes only about 5 - 10 minutes to put together out of the box and includes the only tool you will need to do it.This bar stool has good looks if you prefer a more modern feel. It will probably fit in if you like Ikea or Design Within Reach. Probably would stick out in more conservative decor.This bar stool is cheap for a reason but I could not find anything comparative in the price range. So if you need something economical and modern looking I can recommend it. If you have the dough I would suggest finding something with a higher, padded back rest.

5Sleek and functional!
By S. Jeffrey
Wasn't sure that it would be sturdy but this thing has stood up to the twirlings of my 5year old cousins...the weight of my 6'5" 240lb cousin and daily use by me. I wished the back support was a little higher as it only rests around my lower back but other than that I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

5Cast not pressed = Impressive
By Stan Horstman
Because this is a cast item the base is thick, the top is thick but the walls are thin making this pot much lighter than you would expect. NO RIVETS where the handles are so it is smooth and easy to clean on the inside.I am a Calphalon One pan lover but hate the rivets on the inside with food sticking to them and scrubbing around them. I am actually looking into a Berndes pan as it just seems a better interior design.Final note, I know this is just superficial but the design of the nob on the top of the glass lid is mirror like through the lid and it has a really nice look to it. One more cherry on top of an already great design. Stan

5High quality pot
By Gaius Julius Ceasar
I have this for few weeks now. I really gto a nice deal on it. We made few dishes in it last few weeks. First it was home made meatballs. The pot heats evently, browns very nicely and has plenty of space to last a while. Key to this pot is that it's about 4mm thick. That mean's it has 1/4th the weight of cast iron, but same ability to keep the heat and brown evenly. This pot is excellent not only for the soups, but it an really pull off meatballs, stews, chillis, or anything else one can imaginei rarely give out 5 stars, but this one worth it!

5Love this pot!
By NicholeDiem
I LOVE this pot. I got it with my entire Berndes set and this pot is my favorite. I have had it about a year now and we use it often. I have made soup, jam, spaghetti sauce,peaches for canning, applesauce, pasta,caramels and about anything else you can think of in it. After it cools it cleans so easily. I have had no problems with scratching but I do use silicone or wooden pieces in it. I can't stress enough how much I use this pot. My friends often borrow this pan for their canning/cooking needs because it's bigger than the standard pot many people have, easy to clean, and super light weight. That is nice when you have it full of something, it's not as hard to move as something cast iron. I can't say enough how much this pan has served me this last year, but I think it's perfect for anyone who spends time in the kitchen!
