Customer Review: GolfLogix by Garmin is GREAT!!!
First of all the shipping was quick! I used the free super saver shipping, and it estimated 7 days. I got it in 4! Thanks AMAZON! Previously, I have been using IGolf gps system for about year and a half and it worked ok. Had problems with gadget turning off in the middle of my round numerous times. I got tired of turning it on after every hole, so I stuffed the IGolf gps in my bag. I missed having the gps. I researched all the other types of gps gadgets on the market, and it just seemed like a no brainer to go with Garmin’s GolfLogix. I LOVE MY GOLFLOGIX!!! Very simple to use. I need reading glasses to read and the numbers on this are HUGE. No more reading glasses. Easy to download courses onto computer (Unlimited downloads). I love the fact the GolfLogix automatically advances to next hole. GPS knows all distances to sand traps, hazards, water, doglegs, etc…Price on Amazon beats all other sites hands down. Its all automatic. All in all, just a great gps unit!!!!!

Customer Review: Garmin Delivers!
My wife bought me this as a present, because we have had such good luck with our Garmin Nuvi GPS unit. This is absolutely what you want in a golf gps unit. I kept amazing my playing partners by showing them that the readings on the golflogix matched the marked sprinkler heads exactly (and also gave readings to the front and back of the greens). The most important design feature is that you don’t have to push any buttons. You just look at the screen, and it tells you what you need to know. Basically, it gives you 3 distances from the tee, such as the front and rear of bunkers, water, etc. As you move forward, it automatically gives you the distance to the green. If you wish, you do have the ability to scroll forward and see the distance to the green from the tee. Granted, there are other units that offer more information, if you are willing to spend the time aiming the crosshairs, etc. But, if like me, you just want to know your distance (without delay), golflogix is an excellent choice.

Duncan Hines Mini Loaf Pan
List Price: $2.75
Amazon Price: $2.75
Customer Review: Dimensions are smaller than advertised
These pans are actually a little smaller in dimension as stated by Amazon. The inside space is about 5 1/2 in. (length) x 2 7/8 in. (Width) x 2 in.(tall). Even the dimensions on the label of the pan do not match the dimensions advertised on Amazon. I was really looking for 6 inch (length) x 3 inch (width) pans and was disappointed when I received these smaller pans. The difference is very noticeable to me. Even though they are smaller than the disposable mini pans in the market, I decided to keep them because I liked the quality.
Customer Review: $4.50 perfect for Small Batch Baking
I prefer a single loaf instead of a sheet of 3-6 because I would have to fill the empty openings with water if I only wanted to bake one loaf.

This was the second highest rated bundt pan in Cook’s Illustrated. I used an oil/flour baking spray and my bundt cake popped out with ease. It’s lightweight but perfect for me since I only use it a few times a year.

It’s not only a stir-fry pan, I am using it too for frying chicken without the oil and wow, it’s very crunchy and juicy. Excellent choice for cooking small portion of foods.

Good value for the money. It was smaller than I had imagined it. Remember its 9″ on top and tapers down. Good quality product. Great for preperation of a side or dinner for one or two people.
