  • Terri Momperousse - Its a great product!

  • Amazon Customer - Great boot, so far...

    Was researching hiking boots online, having worn out my last pair of Timberlands. I am a regular hiker, backpacker and camper, so having the correct foot where is very important to me. I loved my Timberlands, but my biggest issue with those was that the tread always seemed to where out too fast for my liking. I found several boots that I wanted to find locally to try out before buying. These Merrells were not on my list. What a mistake! I was at Dick's Sporting Goods trying on some of what I had researched and was very disappointed in what I was finding. These were on the rack, so I tried them out. I normally where a size 11, but when I put that size on I felt like my feet were being squeezed. Not a good thing, but I beyond that these boots felt like they had potential. I decided to go a 1/2 size bigger and my oh my what a fit. I have now had them for a grand total of two days and have taken the dog out on two walks totaling about 3miles and have been wherein get them around the house for break-in. That almost seems unnecessary as these boots fit me about as perfectly as I could ever ask. The price was the same as online. The real test will come when I trap on a backpack for a multi day trip. I will follow up after that.

  • MarkBC - No Year-Titled Editions Anymore

    FYI: According to PC Magazine's review of this product, Norton/Symantec no longer puts a Year edition (e.g., "2012") on their product, so you won't see a version CALLED "2013"...but this IS the newest version, nevertheless.

  • Teresa Stephens - deja vu products

    I've read a lot of negative comments about deja vu, but I have to say that after using the facial peel,cleanser, night cream, eye cream and serum for a week, my skin looks and feels great. I'm 45 with combination skin and starting to get sun spots and lines. These products make my skin look luminous and healthy. I've even been going out without makeup. I had buyers remorse after spending $250, but now I'm glad I did. I will buy from amazon next time, but so far, I'm impressed and I've tried a lot of products. They do need a better translator for the writing on the boxes though, lots of typos and grammer boo boos. :)
