Cap Barbell A Type Dumbbell Rack Reviews
| 40 of 40 people found the following review helpful  This rack would be perfect except it literally STINKS, By BE Babe (Silver City, NM) - See all my reviews This review is from: Cap Barbell A Type Dumbbell Rack (Sports) This is a nice dumbbell rack for individuals with limited space. The rack measures 14.96 in. L x 12.6 in. W x 26.18 in. H. I'm not much of a weightlifter, but I wanted something to get my neoprene dumbbells off the floor. This rack requires some assembly. All of the bolts, nuts, and washers were included in the package. I started to assemble it by myself, but I eventually needed my boyfriend's help to tighten the nuts. It took us about 20 minutes. It appears to be made out of steel and seems to be very durable. I've posted a picture above to give you an idea of the size of the rack. I was also amazed at how they were able to package the rack in such a small box. I was expecting a big parcel, but it was actually shipped in a narrow box. I think the total shipping weight was about 8 lbs.One thing I have noticed is that this rack has a strong odor, possibly from the rubber guards. I'm not sure what it's from, but it is quite powerful and noxious. Other reviewers...

They were right. It did stink. After putting it together, I put is outside in the sun to let it air out. I left it outside about six or seven hours. After that I brought it back in and I haven't smelled it since. It's sturdy, cheap, and holds the dumbbells. I am perfectly satisfied with the purchase. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful Well Made, Good Price, But Too Smelly, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Cap Barbell A Type Dumbbell Rack (Sports) The package arrived a couple of days ago. It was tightly wrapped in lightweight plastic. My 7 year old son asked why it smelled like a campfire. When we opened it up, the reason was apparent. This thing stinks. It stinks so much it the smell comes through the box, and obviously someone knows this, and that is why they wrapped it in plastic (Twin Peaks, anyone?). Even this didn't stop the smell. My son was unable to help me put it together, but I just ignored the smell while I assembled it. Pretty easy assembly if you have any mechanical ability at all. They include an Allen wrench, and you'll need a pair of pliers, wrench or ratchet for the bolt side of the connectors. Now that it is together, I like the way it looks, and it is very sturdy, but it's going to live in the garage until the smell goes away.BTW, one of the long bolts had a deformed head. I called them up, and they sent out a replacement. |

| 202 of 215 people found the following review helpful The Magic Continues... in Darker Shades!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Fifty Shades Darker (Kindle Edition) In this second book of the Fifty Shades Trilogy, the romance continues between Christian and Ana from Ana's point of view... and what a busy POV it is!I have enjoyed this story since it was on the author's website, so it's no surprise I loved this book! The edits have indeed improved the story. "Darker" opens up with the couple apart, but soon Christian and Ana are re-negotiating their relationship. As in the first book of this trilogy, some aspects of the writing are sophomoric, mainly in relation to periphery characters, but don't let that deter you (!) because there is brilliance here too. The relationship between Ana and Christian is just so good. Their frank and open communication is fantastic and their story is not only totally engaging, but downright addicting! Christian (aka, Fifty) is one of the most memorable, delicious characters I have ever read. His voice is unique and clear and mesmerizing, yet he is revealed entirely through Ana's experiences and... Read more 85 of 94 people found the following review helpful Sixth Star if I could... Wow!, By P.A. Lupton (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews This review is from: Fifty Shades Darker (Kindle Edition) I really wish I could manually add a 6th star to Amazon for this book. I never would have believed it was possible but Fifty Shades Darker is even better than Fifty Shades of Grey. Hard to believe, but true. Reading this book reminded me of a quote that I love by Alan Cohen, "Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters. Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome. Terrify and terrific. Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation." Reading Fifty Shades Darker is like witnessing metamorphosis in action.What I love the most about this book is the way the events and characters change and develop. I love that Christian Grey transforms from utterly immovable to flexible. Every negative emotion he feels eventually becomes something positive, or at least something he can learn and grow from. He learns the delicate balance between give and take. He learns to open his heart and to accept love--and he learns to give it as well. Everything cold becomes...

It's not just that the same actions are repeated over and over (and over... and over again), it's that the same words are used to describe them every time. It's like someone put 50 words in a bag, pulled them out and mashed them into a semblance of a sentence, then tossed them back in the bag and repeated the process to fill 300+ pages.Inspired by another review I actually used my Kindle to count the ones that were most painful/annoying to read: Lips bitten: 25 Eyes widened: 21 Eyes rolled: 51 "oh my": 45 Scowls: 48 Gasps: 62 "jeez": 76 Smirks: 91 Flushes/blushes: 133 F-bombs dropped: 173 Whispers: 251 Do the math!

| 5,320 of 5,577 people found the following review helpful  An older man on truckling, By david shobin/thatch pond corp (smithtown, NY USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Fifty Shades of Grey (Paperback) First, a disclaimer. I am a male senior citizen, a semi-retired gynecologist whose customary literary fare is spy novels and military techno-thrillers. I have never read a romance before, except perhaps for junior high's "A Tale of Two Cities" (or was that a classic?) But after the recent hullabaloo over James' "Fifty Shades," I opted to give the genre a glance.The book's protagonist is college student Anastasia, who has never had sex or even "touched herself." I had to suspend disbelief at the social and sexual naivete of this twenty-one year-old, but I guess this implied vulnerability makes her more attractive as a romantic heroine. Yet it doesn't take her long to rectify this situation, and soon she is having orgasm after orgasm at the behest of her "dominant" partner, Mr. Grey. At my age, my arthritis flared up just reading about Ana's sexual gymnastics. And for some reason, I kept thinking about her contracting genital warts. Soon, however, Ana's endless pyrotechnic...

So please don't get snarky - I do realise I am in the minority with my opinions. OK, I couldn't finish this book. I tried, holy hell did I try - but by 88% I was so annoyed I had to put it down. And after a lot of contemplation I have decided not to rant and rave, but simple state in point form what I didn't like. ~ The writing was too sterile. There was no depth and I found it hard connecting to any of it. There was a whole heap of - I touched him, he touched me, I did this, he did that. And it wasn't engaging at all. When I read I want to be able to feel the emotion, not be told how a scene is playing out as if the heroine is actually an observer. ~ The sex - it wasn't hot at all. I wouldn't even classify it as erotic. For some strange reason I have the opinion that you... Read more 1,032 of 1,130 people found the following review helpful Where to start with this?, This review is from: Fifty Shades of Grey (Paperback) The success of this book baffles me. While I am not an avid reader of "erotic fiction," I have read some, and everything that I've read is so much better than this, it's ridiculous. If you're contemplating buying this book, here's what the book is, if this helps you make a decision:- Take Stephenie Meyer's ham-handed, awkward writing and turn down the "quality" dial about four - maybe five - notches. Romance novel readers can look at it this way - the writing is about two levels worse than the worst Harlequin romance you've ever read. - Add in a Stephenie Meyer-esque heroine, a woman so boring it is hard to imagine how anyone - much less an extremely rich, sophisticated, smart, experienced dominant - would ever see anything the least bit interesting in her. Just like Bella in the Twilight novels, Anastasia is mostly just a cipher, a complete blank that women can project themselves onto. She's not that smart, she's not that funny, she has very pedestrian beliefs, goals and... Read more |
