This is a great steam vac, and it was pretty straightforward to assemble though I agree that the innumerable plastic parts can be a hairbreadth away of being damaged if not handled carefully. The problem was in getting the steam vac to me in the promised two day delivery. It somehow was dropped in the patio of a person whose unit number was not mine, and was left there without further validation of the error. The deliverer apparently was puzzled by the delivery slip that was printed out in such away that it clipped the last digit of my unit number and that number did not even exist in the complex, so he decided to drop it at the nearest apartment that had one of the two digits in common. To make a long story short, the
person whose patio had the steam vac sitting there all day, said that she knew of no steam vac arriving on her patio, and ostensibly took it, we think as a freebee.
The deliverer had made numerous promises to me by phone that he would have my steam vac in the course of the day, because he went back to the wrong patio location, knocked on the resident’s door and got the same denial about the steam vac ever arriving. Meanwhile I went back and forth on the phone with the mover (NOT UPS) trying to get things straight on the whereabouts of the steam vac as I had appointments to keep, and the mover had long telephone waits, and different personnel answering who did not keep track of any of my calls made before until far too late when the supervisor got into the picture. The steam vac had to be resent, and it was definitely delayed and causing too much inconvenience. After many calls to Amazon I was given a credit on the purchase of 50% but that was following many Amazon reps haggling about a way to bring the matter to resolution. They didn’t keep track of the whole soap opera along the way. So now two people in this complex have steam vacs. I wonder if the other owner will write a review about her gift or maybe she put it up on Ebay. One lesson to be learn

I used this on my girlfriends cat and within about 30 seconds I had a handful of fur. I gets both the undercoat and the top coat. I think it does a better job on the under coat, but regardless it gets a lot of fur. If you press down two hard it will pull out fur if you are not careful, but for the most part it is just an overall great pet brush.

Excellent bike, easy to assemble. The bike was delivered within a week even with free shipping. The package was slightly damaged, but no damage or missing parts inside. We were a little concerned about assembling ourselves based on some of the review comments, but the bike is delivered only partially disassembled. The only parts we had to assemble were the handle bar, the front wheel, two pedals, and the seat. If you have the right tools, the assembly is straight forward. My son loves the bike, especially because he wanted one with gears.

6ood bike, but they didn’t pay attention to details. I bought this for my 7 year old, since she recently did a 10.5 mile bike trip on her single speed bike. She needed something bigger w/gears. This bike has what she needed, but these are the downfalls… The controls are too hard to use. The brake levers are designed for an adult, a child’s hand can’t reach them very well. Even the grip shifter is to hard to use. I also don’t like the gearing. To me, Pacific Evolution Girls Mountain Bike needs a larger sprocket in the front. It appears she peddles almost at the same rate as her old bike. I’m going to take to a local bike shop and see if there is anything they suggest. If she could shift, it would be a good mountain bike. If it was geared better, it would be good for asphalt riding. Overall, the bike is decent, what you would expect fo [...]
