How does this machine compare to the Powerline BSG10X? The BSG10X has more reviews and they look very similar.

My only experience is with the P1X, but on paper it appears that the same exercises are supported by both machines. The dimensions listed on the data sheets suggest that the P1X is a little higher and much wider, but the width of my P1X is closer to 40" than the listed 66". The P1X has a more "modern" appearance for what that's worth. The main consideration that led me to buy the P1X was the fact that the P1X had to be assembled from multiple parts. This my seem counterintuitive, but since I needed to do all the work myself, I was concerned that the pre-assembled units of the BSG10X would be too heavy for me to handle alone.

There are 2 main differences, I believe. The BSG10X comes 90 percent assembled. The P1X took me about an hour to unpack it and about 7 hours to put together. I got the P1X because it accepts an extra 50 lb weight stack and from what I've read the BSG10X does not...to me the extra weight stack was worth the time putting it together...hope this helps...

The Powermatic was the only unit I could find whose remote control worked while other, remote controlled larger machines were on, such as the dust collector and furnace. I am not an electrician, but a guy who is told me that Powermatic uses a different technology in the PM 1200 than that used by other remote controlled dust filters of similar capacity. It is comparatively quiet, the filters are very easy ro remove, clean and reinstall, and it does an excellent job of picking up the fine duat that might escape the dust collector. It is expensive, but my rationale in buying it was that my lungs are worth the best.

I just cancelled my Amazon order for the VSX-1019. Great reviews on Cnet, sure, but I've read complaints about the power really being 90 watts and, more importantly for me (cos its going into a enclosed unit) about the 1019 running really hot. Can anyone comment on the VSX-9040 re runnimg temperature??

If you contact us, 1-877-4-FABHUT, we can discuss the price further. It does have the auto threader. As far as comparing the machines, it would depend on what you are primarily doing with it. Each is a great machine, but they are stronger at other things. Please contact us and we can discuss your needs and find the right machine at the right price for you. Thanks, Oren

excellent machine. the power cable is too short and you will need an extension. the torch cable is plenty long enough and the ground is long enough for most operations. every shop has it own setup but I mounted mine on a rolling cart so that its very portable. I hope this answers your questions.

I have a brother LS-2125 and BL 137A2- it's also an embroidery machine. So far works great on both machines. Planning to try it on my singer CXL next week.

I personally like the 50" Panasonic plasm. I have mostly looked at the 50PZ700u. I person I work with, who is a stickler for this kind of stuff, bought this TV and really has enjoyed it. According to him you really cant beat it without going up in price by a few thousand dollars. Just as a side note, best I can tell these couple of models use the same panel and just have a few minor differences. 50PZ700U - My preferred right now 50PZ750U - Same with some more plugs and color settings. Costs more as well. 50PZ77U - Not totally sure what the difference is, but it seems very similar.

The 3350r velineon system that traxxas offers as a power up grade is the exact as the vxl . So if you bought a velineon system as a upgrade , you have spent more money than if you would have just bought the vxl to start with . I personally would recommend looking into castle creations brushless system instead . Its almost 100 dollars cheaper and you can get a few different power opinions. I up graded my daughters 4x4 stampede to a 3900kv and its geared for bashing . That system pushes it easily to the 45 mph on a 2s 5000mah 20c battery . The 3350 velineon system will push close to 40 mph on the same battery! I hope this helps you out ! The 3350r velineon system that traxxas offers as a power up grade is the exact as the vxl .

TSLTECH sells let`s say....a "budgetline" version. I was quite disappointed as they were my second purchase of these and I didn't get the good product I got the time before. Unfortunately the seller I used last time discontinued selling these. Thanks for asking this question. I was wondering this myself.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

They are pretty much the same, 86T3 is branded for retail, where the BG10 is for commercial. The Bissell BG10 is the same machine as the Bissell 86T3 (branded for non-commercial use), except for external packaging differences, such as having a yellow colored power cord. The BG10 Bissell does offer a decent commercial use warranty over the 86T3 which is restricted to in your own home use.

Wow, did I call it junk? I mean, it's not the worlds greatest inverter, and if only used a few minutes at a time for small loads, it would be ok. But going bigger means you are going to run some serious equipment, and most likely expensive stuff too. Xantrex has recently come out with a line of inexpensive sinewave inverters to compete with what china is producing in their sunforce line. These are in the $289-300 price range. Personally I'd take the Xantrex first over the sunforce because it WILL deliver 1000W, while the sunforce shuts down just below 1000W and does not have any surge capacity like the xantrex does. I reviewed 3 inverters, 2 xantrex (the grey one is the one i'm thinking of), a yellow one, and one sunforce inverter (black) - all specified to be 1000W. The GREY xantrex offers the most bang for the buck and is not overrated like the sunforce is. The yellow xantrex has a nice powerdown mode called power save that minimizes the inefficiencies of having an inverter - it turns on every couple seconds, looks for any load, then goes to sleep for 2 seconds. As a result the neon lights on power strips blink because they are below the threshold to put it in run mode, but as soon as you really need power it enters run mode. Just beware that these larger inverters come at a price - idle current - the DC power wasted when no AC power is needed. Yellow (expensive) xantrex has the lowest idle with power save, but you can also just turn off the grey unit when you don't need power. The sunforce has a cute keyfob on/off controller - its range is limited but it does work. It's just not able to do 1000W and nowhere near the surge rating on the inverter. I kept that model anyways for the remote control feature. My personal experience says go with the $289 grey xantrex I reviewed. It's got clean power and just don't run it 24x7 (don't run ANY inverter 24x7 - 1.5 A x 24 = 36 AH, which is almost the daily production of the 60W panels! If you leave the inverter running you won't have any room for running devices.)

Hi. There are deficits in every working part in the Bernina 830. I have one and my two friends got one at the same time. They have been to and fro to Bernina for repairs that often that we have lost count. Bernina never admit that there are faults and usually accuse us of mis using them but mysteriously carry out repairs free of charge. I would never buy another machine from them. Ever. Liz

The descriptions are confusing and at first do look identical, but they aren't. The Power model has four PROGRAM SETTINGS for general, crowds, nature and power boost, depending on the environment you find yourself in; that latter one is quite loud even for me, and I can usually stay on the general setting. So as you go from home to church or a theater and then to a walk in the park, you can press the button to change the program setting to match that environment. It does make a difference, but I haven't always found it helpful. The Pro model has four SOUND PROCESSING CHANNELS, which are not the same thing as programs, and you cannot change these "channels". I bought one of these when my Power model broke in less than three months, and the Pro model was sufficient in most situations, but I was anxious to get my Power model back. (It was repaired, but not replaced, under warranty.) It depends on the different environments you find yourself in whether you need the Power model or not.

I have been researching this quite a bit. It appears they are the same basic vacuum cleaner. They have the same motor, same dimensions, same weight, same cord length, everything. They even have the same user manual (as per the Hoover website). I can find only two differences: 1) The U6485900 ("Blue") one on this page does have a dirt finder while the more expensive UH50000 ("Silver") turbo power one does not have that feature. 2) While both vacuums have the identical Turbine Hand Tools, the Silver one calls it "Pet Hair Tool." Sounds like a gimmick to me. The information I found is directly from the Hoover website (each page has links to download the user manual which has different numbers, but turns out to be identical in content). Blue: http://hoover.com/products/details/u6485900/anniversary-windtunnel-self-propelled-bagged-upright/ Silver: http://hoover.com/products/details/uh50000/anniversary-windtunnel-self-propelled-bagged-upright/ Personally, I'm buying the blue one.

Historically Brother has lower toner cost, faster operation and fewer software glitches. However, the Brother 5470 kept blowing my circuit breakers so I returned it.

Stacie, I have a Fellowes DS-3 10 and I am quite satisfied with its power and performance. I have had other shredders that do not come close to the quality and the performance of this machine. I give it 5 stars hands down--thanks, Ron
