Curad Extreme Hold, Assorted Sizes, 30 Count

Curad Extreme Hold, Assorted Sizes, 30 CountThe best bandages ever made, especially the extreme length. Say no more. The person who made the Curad extreme length is a genius. I don't buy my bandages local. I order CURAD over the Internet because the brand name drugstores (Rite-Aid, Walgreen's) I go to, dont carry them.

Campsuds

Campsuds 16 oz.I highly recommend Camp Suds. I have used it for years on camping trips, bicycle treks, horseback progressive ride/camp trips, and general travel. Camp Suds does it all: hair, skin, dishes, and clothing. I was very disappointed when I went to REI today to buy a refill to find that they now carry a 'house brand' that requires that you buy several different products to do what one bottle of Camp Suds does with one. I will now buy Camp Suds through Amazon! Campsuds Campsuds Soap

I love roughing it for days at a time, but I don't like smelling like Sasquatch. Tested this stuff at home for a week. I didn't break out in a rash, shaved with it, even washed my clothes with it. My German Shepherd had no reaction to it as well. PLEASE NOTE: This stuff is STRONG; you only need a little bit. Biodegradable...YAAAY

Our camp soap (campsuds) showed up just in time for our egress to the outdoors! I looked around for reviews on this soap because though I wanted a earth-friendly and effective soap for our camping expedition it was important that it smelled good too! Especially if I'm going to use it on my hair and skin! It has a nice piney, grassy smell which seals the deal for me. I used this to clean our dishes, pots, hands, skin and my hair! A little does go a long way (compared to other household soaps) but we did go through quite a bit of it. We're going to have to get a bigger bottle for our next outing, but the key here is that we will be buying again!

I just finished a month long bike trip with 2 friends. The three of us used only 1/2 of the 8oz bottle in the 26 days we were actually out camping. Granted, we are/were very careful with it, yet we used as much as it took to get stuff clean. Like others said, VERY little is needed -like 4 DROPS into a pan/bowl to wash all the dishes in; a few drops for a T-shirt, etc. We used it for dishes, showering, and clothes, hands (to get bike grease off).

Comes with a GREAT cap that helps with minimizing over-pour-age.

SO so worth it!

This stuff works great for washing clothes, dishes, and even yourself. It is very concentrated, so you just need a small amount to get the job done. This particular product version has a built in dropper cap, which can sometimes leak under certain circumstances. If you want an absolute leak proof container go with the option sold in 4 oz. nalgene bottles, with the screw down cap.

DIXIE EMS LARGE PADDED FIRE RESCUE TRAUMA BAG- ORANGE

DIXIE EMS LARGE PADDED FIRE RESCUE TRAUMA BAG- ORANGEThe People at BP Medical fail to mention that %MOST% of their products are either overstocks or factory rejects from Ever Dixie EMS Supply. Their bags fall apart, have bad seams, etc. Then, when mentioned the bags are falling apart, they promise a replacement and you never hear from them again.

This is a nice bag. Did not expect it but it has dividers padded inside to organize supplies inside. Two zipper pockets on the side with some other two small clear plastic zipper bags..

Good to keep at home for a big family with first aid supplies ;) hope this helps..

Only problem with this bag is that it is going to cost me a fortune to fill this HUGE bag. LOL

Not a professional and got this for med BOB. With all the compartments, dual side pockets with detachable zippered bags in each, and the elastic bands sewn into the top, I could set up one heck of a field station with this.

Heavy zippers, reinforced seams, protected bottom with pegs, medium weight material...Could not be happier at this price.

If you are a Vol. firefighter or small town first responder that doesn't have a big budget, save your money and buy this bag.

Also, to those who denigrated this bag, what were you expecting for this price....gold leaf? I agree the picture used may be misleading, though this bag will hold all the items shown and then some. Read the descriptions and reviews before you buy. If no reviews, contact the seller. Nuf said.

Cryo-MAX Professional Series Cold Pack, 8 hr reusable, 1 Box

Cryo-MAX Professional Series Cold Pack, 8 hr reusable, 1 BoxI suffer from chronic back problems (2 herniated lumbar discs). I work in an office environment, and I also have a morning commute of at least 45 minutes.

These are the only cold packs that I use to reduce swelling. Most other cold packs lose their coldness after 1-2 hours. These last 3-5 hours. The 8 hour claim is a bit of marketing hype, but it's still better than anything else I've purchased.

I have Cryomax ice packs in several sizes, use them daily, and like them tremendously! They stay cold longer than any other product I've tried--though they get warmer as time passes--long enough to move back and forth multiple times between different areas at 20 minute intervals. The cover feels very cozy against bare skin, and the elastic strap holds the ice pack in place against my back or wrapped around my knee or elbow (6x12" size.) The 6x6" size is nice for a smaller area.

Cryomax ice packs are unlike the "frozen peas" type of cold pack in that they have a grid of rounded bumps which are very firm when frozen, surrounded by a flexible thick gel, so while you can get great conformation, they do feel different than other products. They also need to be replaced eventually.

But all the features listed in the first paragraph make them my favorite ice pack by a wide margin, and I highly recommend them.

We ordered this product thinking all the little cells would allow it to be moldable to the area needing the cold therapy. Unfortunately the cold pack stays solid like a brick until it is melted, not becoming moldable at all. We are saving them to use as cold packs for our coolers but not for use on the human body.

I had been given col pac cold packs from a previous injury by a physical therapist.

They lasted for 10 years. You put them on the freezer and then wrapped a light cotton dishtowel around them and they would wrap so comfortably around your injury. So now with a broken ankle and some injuries to my tailbone I need cold. I went to the pharmacy to get new ones not willing to wait for some new ones in the mail. These seemed like thy would work since they did not have my old ones.

So after the freezing time in the freezer I looked forward to some relief putting this in its small felt cover and wrapping a cotton dish towel around it and WAM! It was like sitting on a bumpy cold board ...ouch!! So I tried laying on it and it hurt just as bad, so the only relief this thing gave was that I could lie on a cold sheet that it had been on. I also use old fashioned ice bags on the ankle loosening the boot and tucking the ice bag down for relief well there is no tucking this thing down it is stiff as a board only more lumpy where the balls of ice stick up it would not even bend or get near the ankle.

There is also an important note in the leaflet that comes with this product that is advertised on the box as reusable 8 hours...It says, "When used contiuously without refreezing. It is unlikely CryoMax will stay cold for 8 hours". How can they get away with saying this is "8 hour points of cold technology"??? Isn't this deceptive advertising?

So the relief came with getting this thing out of my sight, especially since the box says "flexible when frozen". You would have to be pretty stong to break it up or yes not freeze it all the way, but stupid me followed directions and put it in the freezer until it was frozen. I have ordered col pacs and for the time being have a nice old fashioned ice bag what a waste of money for this unless you want a cold pack that is stiff and more lumpy than a board.

Clear Sundry Jars, Unlabeled, set of 5 each

Clear Sundry Jars, Unlabeled, set of 5 eachI like to keep cotton balls and cotton swabs in clear jars sitting on the bathroom cabinet because they are so much handier. As the jar empties it's a good reminder to buy more, so we never run out. I needed to replace my last jar (it was glass), and found these. They are perfect! They're study plastic jars, quite simple and very useful. The price is so reasonable, too, and came in a set of five! They are the perfect size for the cotton balls and swabs, but are also great for all kinds of things. For those of you wondering about the jar's size, they are about 6 1/2 inches high and 4 inches in diameter, not counting the the lid. Not too small, but not too large...just right. I'm thinking these will make good containers for giving away homemade cookies and candies at Christmas time. So glad I found them!

These canisters are a good value compared to glass. There is less clanging and banging and they are safer. Judith Peck

Campho-phenique Antiseptic Gel

Campho-phenique Antiseptic Gel, 0.50-OunceTogether with Silver Biotics 16 Ounces, Campho Phenique worked so well keeping infections down. We saved two hospital visits. When we were using the Campho Phenique, we used liberally just to make sure the infected area was well covered, so yes we used several boxes. Just a note that over time, it does dry the skin but the infection should have calmed down by then. The earlier you detect the problem, the better it would be in counteracting the problem, so we keep this always handy in our medicine cabinet. Hope this info helps because it did work for us. And take the colloidal silver alongside this as well. We used both when treating the infections so they obviously work well together.

This has certainly changed, no wonder it can't be bought in the stores. It dries out the sore, not moisturize or heal it.

Grandma El's Diaper Rash Remedy and Prevention Tube

Grandma El's Diaper Rash Remedy Tube 2 OZThis stuff is thick and very oily so be sure you using it sparingly.

I suggest only using it with disposable diapers and only in extreme cases. Too much will irritate the skin more because it won't dry effectively and it leave the baby's bottom slick and cause more harm than good.

However for very bad diaper rash, a dash of this will do wonders. It soothes on contact and really helps calm the child down which any parents knows can be a huge chore! I have been kept up for hours from a screaming baby....

Don't forget about the mom though! We suffer too. Another baby must I can't do without is nipple cream. Motherlove makes a really great baby-safe formula (Motherlove Nipple Cream + FREE Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion Fragrance Free 8 oz.) which absorbs quickly and helps heal cracks and soreness from breastfeeding. The same screams come out of my daughter's mouth when she's hungry as when she's irritated so I can't live without cream for her or me!

I was not hopeful when I ordered this. I only bought it because I needed something that was cloth diaper safe, because I was sick of using liners. Despite using cloth diapers, and changing diapers every 2 hours, my daughter had a near constant red, dry, bumpy bottom. "Some babies just have constant rash" people told me. Every night, I dutifully slathered my daughters bottom with zinc oxide cream (I have seemingly tried them all thanks to baby samples and gifts, we also went through a whole lot). Almost from the moment we started to use Grandma El's her redness cleared right up. I could NOT believe it. I also started to put Grandma El's under her mouth and chin, and the rash she had developed from her constant spittle also cleared up.

Some more pros:

* Smells wonderfully sweet, but not perfume-y.

* Much easier to wipe off your hands than zinc oxide cream.

* Goes on clear.

* A little goes a long way.

* Fully cloth diaper safe!

* Very cute packaging, looks like a boutique baby product.

If you cloth diaper, this is a must have. If you have tried everything and your baby still has redness, give this a try!

I can't compare this to other products because we used this from day one and never looked back. As we were expecting our twins, a friend with kids gave this to us as a gift and said she swore by it. Anytime there has been even a threat of a rash, we apply this and it's gone in the morning. Haven't run into any rash yet that Grandma El's can't handle. As an added benefit, it's easy to put on and doesn't leave your hands smelling or oily.

I love this. It's great for clearly up rashes quickly. 100% cloth friendly. Also great for eczema, chapped lips and skins, and dry scaling skin.

Want Grandma El's Diaper Rash Remedy and Prevention Tube Discount?

Ever since I discovered this product, I couldn't imagine using another rash cream. Even my husband has been impressed with it. My 18 month old has extremely sensitive skin, so we put this on her every night to prevent rashes.

I cloth diaper and have only 2 nighttime diapers (Happy Hempys) so they get used A LOT of heavy use. Despite using this cream every night for months, it has not caused any repelling issues in the diapers. (I'm not sure if this helps, but I use Charlies. While I recently moved and now have soft water, my last home did not, and we still did not have any issues.)

The scent is nice. It reminds me of the Strawberry Shortcake dolls from the 1980's. I did a check on the scent they use on the EWG website and it is non-toxic. In fact, I checked out ALL of the ingredients and they all score a 0 1 (out of 10) so it's a product I can feel completely comfortable using on my baby.

The best part about this stuff is that it works wonders. If my baby gets diarrhea, she will get a rash every time. I use a bit of this stuff and it clears up faster than anything else I've used.

I really wish I would have known about this product when my first two children were babies and when my baby was a newborn.

Wahl Trimmer All-In-One Lithium Ion

Wahl 9854-600 Lithium Ion All In One TrimmerCustomer review from the Amazon Vine Program (3.5 stars) The Wahl Lithium Ion All-In-One Trimmer definitely delivers on its promise of power. You feel it the instant you turn it on that is one powerful motor inside its small, lightweight case. This provides a lot of cutting torque for comfortable, clean trimming of beards, mustaches and body hair. However, the power comes with downsides in terms of vibration and noise as well. And while the set is packaged with numerous attachments, not all of them are very useful. Finally, the included organizer tray is a cheap-looking and doesn't hold all of these attachments very well.

If you plan on using it purely for beard/mustache, body hair, and the occasional touch-up of sideburns and neckline between trips to the barber, then this trimmer is probably a 4.5 star performer. It's powerful enough to handle the thickest beard and won't get clogged up by any amount of body hair (a blade comb and small bottle of oil are included for ongoing maintenance). This power comes at a cost in vibration and noise, and some may find it uncomfortable to use for long periods of time.

The attachment for eyebrows, nose and ear hair is useless for different reasons. For eyebrows, it has no comb attachment and its built-in guide is much too short unless you simply want to totally eradicate your eyebrows from your face. I found a suitable workaround for eyebrows by using the main blade with the shortest guide attachment and then carefully (CAREFULLY) gliding over my brows. The results ended up being very nice, but you're just one sleepy morning away from a disaster. For nose and ears, the vibration is simply too much to bear. Plus, the attachment isn't shaped at all for this function it's simply a narrower version of the main blade. This means that (1) there's no easy way to work around the curves of your nostrils or ears and (2) the cutting surface is still the tip of the blade instead of the sides, so you'll be working the trimmer at all sorts of odd angles to get any results at all. I recommend a good nose/ear trimmer that's designed exclusively for that purpose instead.

The surprise was the dual foil shaver head. I expected this to be a total throw-away, but it delivered a very close and surprisingly comfortable shave. It suffers in the ergonomics because its handle is shaped like a trimmer instead of an electric shaver (it feels like you're shaving with a small flashlight), but that's a small downside. Will I throw away my electric shaver now? No, but I would give some thought to throwing this in my overnight bag for travel due to its small size and additional versatility.

Switching blade heads between the main, the wider, the ear/nose/eyebrow, and the shaver feels clunky. The instructions are vague on this point (as they are with almost all aspects of using the trimmer) and I eventually figured it out by trial and error. Still, it often feels like I'm forcing the parts whenever switching blades, which is disappointing given the otherwise sold build of the trimmer.

Battery life is excellent and you can even run it on a quick charge after only a few minutes of being plugged in. The included power adapter is nicely compact, which is becoming rarer for many countertop electronics. The trimmer unfortunately doesn't have any sort of battery gauge, but the quick-charge feature minimizes that limitation.

The included tray seems to be too small to neatly hold all of the attachments that come with the set. Plus, it's very cheap-looking. I ended up storing everything in a carrying pouch that I had from an old electric shaver. All told, the entire kit could fit in anything roughly the size of a sandwich bag.

PROS

* Powerful motor for clean, effortless maintenance of bears, mustaches and body hair

* Long battery life

* A surprisingly good foil shaver attachment that could get some use while traveling

CONS

* Vibration and noise from the motor makes prolonged use uncomfortable

* Not as useful as a nose, ear or eyebrow trimmer

* Accessory quality isn't always up to par with the trimmer itself

CONCLUSION

While the Wahl Lithium Ion All-In-One Trimmer is a magnificent trimmer small and lightweight but massively powerful. However, its "all-in-one" claim is made based on attachments that often fall short of the mark. Honestly, there probably is no true "all-in-one" solution, so fault them with overreaching marketing instead of bad design. Grab one of these for the big jobs and a good dedicated ear/nose/brow trimmer for the small ones and you'll be all set.

First off... People, be aware of "Vine Program" reviewers. Keep in mind that these people did not pay for the item and did not actively go out and search for the product they now own. I, on the other hand, was actually looking for this here electric "clipper".

One PRO:

1 At first I was glad to see that WAHL had finally designed a shaver with a lithium battery because the nickel-cadium battiers in their other units die out way too fast. As it turns out, the battery was the only positive thing about this trimmer. I only needed to charge it fully once and it would last for approx 6 shaves.

Many CONS:

1 Rubber material covering body of unit grips TOO much. Little pieces of cut hairs will stick to it like glue! Within a week it mine was covered in little hairs. Messy.

2 The metal blades rust easily even though they were never exposed to water, only to sweat. I have never had this problem with other Wahl trimmers before.

3 This thing is loud when it's new and getts louder as it ages. After 7 months mine stopped cutting well and sounded like a mini chain saw.

4 Short life span 7 months. Only used it 3 times a week, face only, and oiled it once a week.

Thank you for your time.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Pros

Powerful motor

Keeps its charge

Feels solid

Standard Wahl narrow blade head good for precise trims

Cons

Too many accessories! A better design could keep it more simple

Standard Wahl narrow blade head not as good for faster trims

I've owned a half a dozen rechargeable trimmers, most of them for beards, and I have to say that I've never been that impressed regardless of the brand name. I can't seem to find one that's both simple and powerful.

The Wahl Lithium Ion All In One is probably the most powerful rechargeables I've ever used. I tried a number of current Norelco models and they're frequently on the wimpy side. One was so weak that it would pull hair right out of my face instead of cutting it. This Wahl model is on the other extreme. Just trimmed my heard and cut my lip a little bit on the blades. Probably only the second time that's ever happened with a trimmer. Will need to be careful in the future, but thankful because the obvious power means a faster trim and no fear of pulled hair.

My two gripes about the Wahl are the same I've had about the previous Wahl trimmers I've used.

One, unlike Norelco which frequently designs built in adjustable heads that go up and down, they offer a ton of accessories. This kit has something like 17. I don't need 17! I'm betting most men don't either. Some of these are going to get lost or inconveniently separated from the trimmer. Just give me a removable adjustable height head and that's all I need. That function itself can equal half a dozen or more attachments.

My second complaint is also the same I've had about all Wahl trimmers the head width. It's about 1/4" or so more narrow than Norelco models. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Wahl trimmers are best for getting around the edges where accuracy is needed. The wide head Norelcos are for when you want to trim your beard as fast as possible with a wider blade IF they offered a model with as strong a motor as the Wahl that is.

I'm no fan of Norelco have sworn them off after experiencing too many wimpy motors. I really like the power of this Wahl. I just wish they'd borrow a little bit from Norelco. The narrow head has its use, but enough with the dozen+ accessories.

For this price range this probably one of the best trimmers I've used even with my complaints. And if you happen to like having all sorts of accessories then this might be perfect for you.

Read Best Reviews of Wahl Trimmer All-In-One Lithium Ion Here

This product has a fatal flaw; the trimmer's internals can't handle the torque of the motor and fail within days. Basically the springs that return the blades to their original position during trimming snap off and render the unit useless. It buzzes erratically and that's that.

I purchased my first unit in september and it last for 3 days before the springs snap. My second unit was shipped to me, which then lasted me 2 weeks before the same failure occurred. THe problem is NOT user induced, the trimmer could be left on on a table for 10 minutes a day and the same would occur within a few days.

On a positive note, it trimmed really well while it worked. Battery lasted far longer than anything I've used and it had plenty of power. It's a real shame because i was staring to love this thing.

Dont buy it, try something else or suffer the same result in a few days.

Want Wahl Trimmer All-In-One Lithium Ion Discount?

Worked well for 10-months of very light duty trimming a goatee and sideburns and being kept clean and oiled up. Today it failed to turn on after being plugged to charge. Took the head off and inspected inside, very clean and the unit looks brand spanking new. Wahl doesn't have good customer service or warranty return service and their web site support is a joke. So it is up to me to deal with the repair.

I tested the charger and it is producing a steady 4.30 V. I disassembled the unit by pulling back the rubber cover down and splitting the plastic case open to expose the motor, battery and electronics. There was corrosion and a layer of green on the integrated circuit leads due to ambient moisture in the bathroom. Cleaned it off with vinegar and distilled water and checked the leads and the unit worked again. The internal battery is an industrial a 3.7V 750 mAh 2.3 wh AA Lithium Ion and it was 3.95 V showing a full charge. I will re-solder the weakened and corroded leads and put a waterproof layer of conformal coating on all the exposed leads and chips.

I suspect that Wahl knows about ambient moisture damaging and destroying the products and they refuse to cover the electronics with moisture resistant conformal coating used as an inexpensive and standard way in the electronics industry to ensure a steady stream of failures and re-purchases by customers.

My advice is open the unit up and waterproof the electronics by covering the leads and chips with a liquid or spray-on conformal coating. If you're not mechanical enough to do that, I suggest go buy another product and hope for the best.

SHARPS CONTAINER 1 QT

SHARPS CONTAINER 1 QTI can't speak to the lateness of shipping, as stated by the other reviewer, but the product is fine. It is a standard sharps container, and economically priced. Why pay more for the same thing from other companies? If it comes sealed, it is easy to open it again. They can be re-opened once closed. I have purchased many of these and use a more expensive brand at work. They are exactly the same. I use it for insulin syringes. I will continue to purchase this brand.

Container is ok but not particularly secure. I think BD product is better but of course more than twice the price. Also not much of a bargain when you add shipping unless you by large quantity. I bought two and shipping was still almost 4 times the purchase prices. Live and learn.

This sharps container worked perfectly without any problems. However, after looking up my city's garbage collection policies, I found that as long as needles are placed in a hard, puncture proof container with hard screw lid, I can throw them away in the regular trash. So I now recycle some of my containers from other products as sharps containers. Much less expensive! Morkand
