This is great stuff for those of us who don't sew. Whatever fits my 4 year old daughter in the waist is too long in the legs. This stuff is the perfect solution. I've washed pants that I've "hemmed" maybe once or twice and they're fine.... the hem is staying together.

Sullivans Heavy-Duty Make-A-Zipper 3 yd Reel Review

I purchased 3 rolls of this. when filling my order shipper saw 3, and then looked at the package and saw 3 yard, so they assumed I bought just 1. They filled out the invoice so that they shipped 3 of 3. I was charged for 3 rolls "of course" paying $41 for one roll! Shipper will not return my calls or respond to my e-mail. All they would have to do is check inventory, and maybe make a phone call regarding my order to sales.

Ott - Lite Truecolor Floor Lamp Review

Ott - Lite Truecolor Floor Lamp
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The light is very good BUT...
I replaced the lamp after about 3 years with one from Sylvania (Do It Center in SoCal have it) - just as good, much cheaper.
Also, the two parts of the tube stem thread on to an internal ferrule - probably aluminum. This ferrule takes a lot of the stress when the lamp is moved, twisted etc other than by the flexible head. Having wrapped the joint in duct tape to help relieve some stress, I bought another year or so of life. The ferrule or tube thread is now stripped on the top half and to replace it would mean complete disassembly beyond the 'knock down' it arrived as, since the cable runs through the ferrule and tubes.
I may try a 1" hose clamp to buy a bit more time before junking it...

Mighty Mendit Review

Mighty Mendit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I used this product to glue down some vinyl tile that would not stick, glued together loose ends of some strip insulation, and repaired an old wood toy. This glue did the job. I found it easy to use. You have to press with some force to get the glue out of the bottle, but the closure does keep the glue from sealing itself up, so the product stays fresh. The glue comes out in a thin stream, easy to work with, just be patient.

I like this zipper system better because it's cheaper than regular zippers. It's not as easy as opening a package and using the zipper but you get to pick your length and it's not that hard to do. I think this is a good idea if you use a lot of zippers but if you're in a hurry, not the best idea.

I love this product, however I have ordered it twice and keep getting the wrong thing. Instead of Make a Zipper I am receiving repair a zip which I don't need. The company says Amazon has the wrong number so hopefully someone gets this corrected at some point.
