Review:“Has been recommended to a close friend, friends say it is very good, worth buying, I can rest time to find my old friends to play together, just like when I was a child.” -Ron LL
Review:“We have used this for 3 days now, and we are still on the same bag of ice as we bought on day 1. It fits really well on our small patio. I highly recommend it. Just watch out as the lid is not attached and will slide off easily, but it makes it simple for cleaning, which I gave it a good wash before use, as it had a slick type coating that smelled pretty bad when we opened it. It washed away really easily, though.” -Kindle Customer

Review:“I purchased these for my teens bathroom. She’s starting to collect to many sprays/lotions to leave on the counter. Took me about 15-20 minutes to measure, screw in the anchors, and then the shelf. They seem pretty sturdy, we are both happy with them.” -Danielle P.

Review:“This company should be given an award. I have long been looking for an over engineered keyboard like he would find in the 70s or 80s before they became cheap. This is it. This keyboard feels way more expensive than what I paid for it.” -Amazon Customer
Review:“I bought these to learn how to roller skate and I love them! Super comfy to wear, the stoppers are low enough to help you stop but don’t get in the way and they roll well (compared to some I’ve used in the past). They did have some glue and a scuff or 2 but I don’t mind bc they’re about to go thru it with me! Ha Overall great buy!” -videj
