I am starting a post about things that I that are NOT recommended! The Buxton Organizer I do NOT recommend! I bought the BO at Walgreens, and I returned it in less than 5 or 10 minutes. When I opened the box, it was this little ridiculous purse, that could not hold 2 big bottles of water like the commercial said, and it could not hold my magazines or notebooks, wghich is mainly what i bought it for! Big thumbs down!

The Magic Bullet--what the informercial doesn't tell you is that it has these plastic rings that must stay in place or face big time messes. The ring came off during the FIRST USE!! You are given like 4 replacement rings and then you have to order more. uh, no thank you. It is staying put in the box and one day, I will have the nerve to get rid of it. It was a gift.

That purse Janice doesn't seem like it would hold all that crap.

I love mine and I never use those rings ever and I've never had a problem

Really?? Please explain more......How do you use it without the rings? Don't they protect from leaks, etc?

If you can explain to me, I would be willing to give mine another try

PZelda · 06-08-2008, 02:32 AM

I really do not recommend ANY all-in-one printer/scanner/copiers/fax machines. They are true pieces of ****! Especially the HP PSC 1350. OMG, seriously, stay the living hell away from that one. I'm willing to dole out a few extra bucks for a separate printer AND a scanner. Ugh!

Jude The Obscure · 06-08-2008, 10:21 AM

Hey PZelda--I tried one of those things once--WHAT A NIGHTMARE!!!!
Quickly went back to my separate printer and scanner--with lots of easier results!

I owned one for 4 1/2 years. Should have kicked me in the head.

I have a HP Deskjet printer now that was just $40 so if it breaks, no biggie. I'd like a scanner... these things start at $100, though, so it will be a while.

I had an HP printer once in the late 90s. Holy piece of crap that thing was. Yet the Lexmark that I have now...one time I tripped over the power cord and the whole printer came crashing to the floor. It still works though. Yay for Lexmark.

Jude The Obscure · 06-08-2008, 10:10 PM

I got a Mustek scanner at Amazon about two years ago--didn't cost me $100

And for Lexmark--it was my first printer but got ruined after I did one of those refill your own ink kits--learned my lesson the hard way!
I currently have an HP--works fine for me.

Haha, I had a HP Deskjet 400, circa 1996. *THAT* one was a POS... never could figure out how to get that thing aligned. It was a really, Really, REALLY bare-bones printer.

Technically... the one I have now is bare-bones too, but it looks a little more fancier than the HP printers of the mid-90s. I like the fact that I can buy a pack of color & black ink carts for my printer for only $30 total.

I've had nothing but bad luck with Lexmark... egads! Never again...
