Rating:  - * works just the way it says ... We adopted a puppy in September. Our older dog HATES having his nails trimmed so I decided to try the new "filing" method these drills offer. It took 2-3 days of exposing our puppy to the sound & vibration of the tool, but after that he allowed me to file his nails. It's quick and easy. Little fido even fell asleep one time while I was doing it! Rating:  - * My dog's nails are stronger than this product ... There was not enough power in the Dremel to groom our Golden Retriever's nails. Product was returned for a full refund. Rating:  - * Works for us! ... My rather large lab has dark nails and has always hated having his nails trimmed. In fact, I couldn't do it without injuring him, so I have always taken him to his vet for nail trims at about $12 to $15 a pop. I bought this Dremel after reading reviews for the assortment of similar available products. Then I had the vet trim his nails so that I only have to maintain them. So far so good. The drill is not very noisy and is easy to hold and direct. The lowest setting is sufficient for maintenance. I tried it on my own nails and fingertips with no adverse effects. I think that it will be a real money saver in the long run if I just maintain rather than trying to grind down overgrown nails. The only drawback is that the sandpaper does not last long with my big dog's thick nails and should be replaced after only one heavy or two light sanding sessions, but that is probably best for sanitation anyway and may not apply to smaller pets. Rating: - * it's for the birds ... we used it on our umbrella cockatoo for years- the little kitty cat nail trimmers were okay, but constantly either hit the quick or left his nails sharp- (not fun to have him climbing your afterward) we now use it on the dogs (2lb yorkie on up to 85 lb lab) nice cause it is cordless ( we take it to the fairgrounds for touch ups on the goats hooves too) just have spare AA batteries around- we use the rechargeable ones and have never had a problem yet- also does not seem to be as noisy as the dremel with the cord attached- nice touch for fearful dogs oh and use it on the birds beaks too!!! Rating: - * Haven't decided yet.... ... I feel like the Dremel causes my pet much less pain than clippers would but the length of time I have to keep her still to use the Dremel could be just as painful. They tell you not to press hard with the Dremel so therefore it takes quite awhile to trim one nail on my chocolate lab. I would recommend this product for small dog owners first. |
Where the NBA Dynasty series (the other initial entry is the slightly meatier Los Angeles Lakers: The Complete History) outdoes Ultimate Jordan is in the six playoff games--one for each year--as they were originally broadcast, minus halftime and commercials. Having the nearly complete game (usually running 90-100 minutes, from the TV introductions to post-game interviews) means you can skip straight to John Paxson's clutch basket or what was expected to be the final shot of Jordan's career. Or you can savor each game in its entirety, all the better to appreciate the artistry of Jordan in his three-pointer barrage against Portland or his "flu game" against Utah. You can see other great players too, of course, including Jordan's teammates--Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, Dennis Rodman--and those opponents unfortunate enough to face the Bulls--Clyde Drexler, Charles Barkley, John Stockton, Karl Malone, and others. Because these are all NBA Finals games, you won't see Jordan's shot over Craig Ehlo or his 63-point coming-out party against Boston, but the 1990s Chicago Bulls were a team for the ages, and merely having their games--some of them all-time classics--available for home viewing is a major milestone in archived sports. --David Horiuchi
While last-minute heroics tend to be the standard by which we define excellence, there are many other moments that have left an indelible impression, many of them highlighted here. The video clips fall into 10 categories: Dunks, Alley-oops, Assists, Steals, Blocks, Teamwork, the Clutch Shot, Moves, Hustle, and Buzzer-Beaters. At the beginning of each section is a brief introduction. Before showing the top 10 dunks of all time, for example, we learn about the evolution of the dunk--from the first slam to the man who could fly, Michael Jordan--and we hear background commentary from NBA legends such as Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Dr. J, and Bill Russell. This video recalls familiar moments of NBA lore that you will want to own for countless repeat viewings. --Jeremy Storey
