Does anybody know the differences between the Whirlibird II and the Whirlibird III? Is there one you would recommend over the other? Thanks!

In comparing the descriptions of the two versions of the jacket at Columbia's website, the differences I'm finding are: Whirlibird iii Construction: Zip-in and 3-point Interchange System Drawcord adjustable hem Adjustable cuff tabs Modern classic fit Fabric: Shell lining 100% nylon embossed taffeta Inner jacket exterior 100% polyester Microtex Lite II taffeta Inner jacket lining 100% polyester Thermal Reflective Microtex Omni-Heat inner jacket insulation 50% polyester/50% recycled polyester, 80g OH --------- Whirlibird ii Construction: Zip-in Interchange System Fabric: OMNI-TECH SHELL DETAILS 100% nylon SHELL LINING 100% nylon taffeta INNER JACKET EXTERIOR 100% polyester INNER JACKET LINING 100% polyester Thermal Reflective Other differences in the version III: Available colors Available color patterns Columbia only offers the newer version on their website So, there are some differences but not a lot. Hope this helps.

The company these come from (http://www.cigaroasis.com/) sold/sell both the III and the newer IV which the website states of the IV "The same great features as the Caliber III, but now with the ability to adjust Calibration. In response to our customers' requests, we have responded with this high end feature." It is also stated that the "CALIBER III HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED NOW SHIPPING CALIBER IV HYGROMETER W/CALIBRATION ADJUSTMENT" at the Amazon listing: http://www.amazon.com/DISCONTINUED-SHIPPING-HYGROMETER-CALIBRATION-ADJUSTMENT/dp/B00AA1B7X8/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1390082966&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=caliber+hygrometer. I would have to concur since the III is no longer listed on their website. From experience I can tell you that they are a good company to deal with since I had one of my IIIs take a dive and they replaced it with no questions asked. Enjoy!

Have not used the 330 but the 370 is great. My husband I have gone out in the 370 several times and loved it and last time we took our 7 year old daughter with us and it was great. We have not gone white water either just some nice lakes.the rating and weight compacity are two things you need to compare.that will tell how good it is and how much it can handle.Make sure it is mets the NMMA requirements.

Nautilus R514 Recumbant post: Your review is good - and not having seen these two sister products side-by-side, I would definitely say that the Schwinn display looks more updated (color, etc.) while the Nautilus looks bad. You did miss one thing: the R514 has a 'powerful fan.' Now, I like that feature, but I can get the 240 for $399 including tax and shipping. That means that for $150 I get a better warranty and a fan, but many of the reviewers on various sites have said that the fan is, in the words of Charles Barkley, TURRIBLE! So I agree with you, and am going to order the Schwinn. Using an external fan may not be chic, but it probably works better and it's free (top shelf of my hall closet :-)). Thanks for the fine review - well done.

As long as you use the tethered trainer mode until you get used to flying it. Otherwise, if I had it to do over I would have probably gotten the HobbyZone Super Cub (VERY basic flyer but can be modified for flaps once more advanced) or better yet the new E-flite Apprentice S 15e RTF with SAFE which is supposed to be a very basic flyer and advanced flyer all in one plane. I read up on the SAFE technology built into it and sounds very interesting.

There is the Intex Mariner 3, but it is a different boat than the Sea Hawk II--maybe mostly only by name. The Mariner 3 looks like an updated version of the Sea Hawk II, but I'm comparing only by looks. You'll have to compare the size. I can tell you that the Sea Hawk II is a great boat. It's very durable. If the Mariner 3 is as good or better than the Sea Hawk, you'll be happy.

Hi, not sure what the difference is exactly, but I must admit that I find this one much better than the previous one. It is lighter and more durable so I fully recommend getting 83 slow. Sorry I can't be more of help

That's pretty much the only notable difference and from what I've read the Eliminator 2 is more popular. I love the 3 but could do without the windage.

I am also wondering which one to buy for my 19 month old little girl.There's only a $10 price difference. I want to know which one she will enjoy the most and actually use.

I have a Windward II fan. The owner's manual lists models 523 342 and 523 127, so it appears as though your Windward III is the same as the II. As I said in my review, this remote works the same as the original, except no light dimming...only on or off. You may want to contact the seller to be sure of compatibility.

My fan has 3 nickel blades. You should definitely not get fewer (i.e. 2)blades for a large room. It seems that the picture is wrong for the model 802. Here is the line item info from my order 18 months ago: 1 "Caframo Limited 802CA-KBX Ecofan Airplus, Nickel Blade"Health and Beauty; $127.99Good luck.Jerry

I have the same model (732-500) and have 3 settings. The control doesn't even look like this one. Must be they upgraded?It runs hot. I think warm would be great as low is hot. For a person who's always cold in the winter, that's saying something. : )When I bought this one I also got a regular size. That one is easier to handle. The large one... is... large! I do like it but would recommend getting 2 sizes.Hope this helps.

Big differences! The water rower is much more like a natural rowing feel-really has the same resistance and flow as rowing in water. Harder pulls means more resistance. The concept II, is a flywheel rower, which relies on air resistance (adjustable by vents) to deliver resistance. Works well, but less natural feelingI've used both extensively (former competitive rower) and I vastly prefer the water rower

Micro 6 channel collective pitch helis are much more "twitchy" than a T-REX 500. You should do just fine, and will find flying larger helis EASIER than smaller helis. I find 500-class helis the best when it comes to weight vs. lift. I don't do any 3D flying (yet?), but am confident with sport flying and performing pirouettes.

If 885T is better and 2009 model, why model 880 is still more expensive than the 885T? I have seen some comments about 885T not being so good in terms of quick alternate lane calculations, voice quality etc. Are these the same problems with 880 as well? Which one should I buy? Thanks.

I emailed Neato regarding the different models and they promptly replied with this response. Hopefully this will help others who are wondering about this. Thank you for contacting Neato Robotics Customer Care. Mechanically and functionally, the XV-11, XV-12, XV-14, and XV-21 are all the same robot. The main difference between all the robots is their color. The XV-21 is the only robot that comes with a new brush and filter, which is centered towards pet owners and allergy sufferers. This updated brush and filter, also known as the Pet & Allergy Upgrade Kit, can be purchased separately and used with all existing robot models. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
