This thing is freaking amazing! I've had this for just shy of a year now, and it's one of the best tools I've ever purchased. While I was looking, I kept reading reviews of people who wanted this impact to take off lug nuts to do tire rotations and things of that nature. I personally don't see why you need an impact to take off lug nuts, but to each his own. I wanted to know how it handled suspension bolts, rusted truck bolts. You know, stuff that actually requires some force and work to get off. However, 98% of the reviews were, "takes my lug nuts off easy". For those of you who want to know how this performs on something other than a few lug nuts, this is for you.
I initially purchased this impact for suspension work I was about to do which required me to take off an axle nut. The last time I attempted to take an axle nut it took me 30 minutes of standing on a breaker bar and jumping up and down. I did NOT want to go through that again. So, I bought this. This thing didn't even blink at the axle nut. I had that nut off in a mere two seconds. I was stunned. There has been nothing that this thing hasn't taken right off for me. I usually start out on lowest setting, give a quick pull of trigger, if that doesn't do anything then I moved to middle setting. Then, if that doesn't work, I go to highest setting. Very few times have I even had to go to the highest setting. 80% of the time I've broken nuts/bolts on the middle setting and didn't even need to go to the highest. But, when I have, it's nothing for this impact. Yes, this thing will make quick work of your lug nuts and help speed up your tire rotations. However, if that's your primary purpose, this thing seems waaayy overkill for that job. I would recommend saving a few $$ and get something a little cheaper. However, if you want something that works on those really torqued bolts or rusted nuts, this is the one you want! If I had to give a negative about this impact, it's the size. It is bulky and hard to get in certain areas, but I figured that was going to be the case before I bought it. The battery lasts quite a while as well. I've done a whole job and still had at least two bars left. It really is a great tool. I just used it yesterday to replace two engine mounts, and I thought, "I should really write a review on this". I don't write many.

The Cons
Soft speakers; Weak cameras
Verdict
With its durable chassis, powerful parental controls and rich content library, the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids Edition is the children's tablet to beat.
What is the edition of Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids?
The Fire HD 8 Kids Edition is larger than two Amazon tablets targeted at children. At heart, it's Fire HD 8 standard, but with a drop-proof rubber case and a free subscription a year for the Fire For Kids service, which provides access to rich content with kiddy.
The parental controls did not work well for us. We set a minimum reading time -- supposedly you can set it up to require kids to read for a certain amount of time before they can start playing with apps or watching movies. This never worked as expected -- it seems there's a lot of content Amazon deems "educational" and lets it through as though it were reading. (A lot of these apps they let through are only marginally educational -- and we didn't want her playing games at all during her reading time!) We ended up turning Freetime off, since the content there was too simple (we had to set her a couple of age groups ahead to get material at her level -- and she's not advanced for her age) and generally low quality (her feed kept turning up lots of kid-level biographies of pop celebrities, for example).
Also, one of the main reasons we bought the Kindle was for travel, so she could watch movies on U.S. planes where they now show them only via wifi / device. However, even with the airline app installed, Kindles can't receive movies, at least on United. It worked fine on our iPads, but the Kindle couldn't access movies -- we kept getting error messages and the app FAQ implied that it was because the Kindle OS is too far behind.
If you have time read this review, I think it will help you decide to buy or not. First, I dislike earbuds and find
them annoying because they never stayed in my ears. So after going through 3 sets of headphones in one year and damaging them due to sweat and having to clean the headphone pads to avoid them from stinking of dry sweat, I broke down and searched for a pair of earbud style with a clip around the ear to help keep them in place better. Like most of us, I searched for them here on Amazon. There were three things I looked for: one is the reviews, second is that it's fulfilled by Amazon ( so I have some backing if these things are bad ) and third is warranty period for them. Paying $125 to $200 was not what I wanted to spend on name brands that don't deliver and are hyped up for their name, that's just me ! I figured I take a chance on these earbuds for $34.00, and must say I was pleasantly surprised by their performance and quality so far. The sound coming out of these earbuds is just incredible to me. At the gym, I have them paired with my iPhone 5S and at 50% they are loud as hell. I will probably never need to go higher than that . Connection with my iPhone was easy and no issues. The fact that they are sweatproof was a must for me. The 30 ft distance in my home worked fine through 2 walls to the other end of my home. I made calls with them and the mic worked well. I tested the running time of 8 hrs, and it was on point with what they said . The comfort wearing them to my ears was great and guess what they stay in place. The clip around the ear is a soft rubber or silicone material that surprisingly works to help keep the earbuds in my ear. Then you get other little gifts like hard carry case, dual car charger, a short charge cable and 3 foot charge cable that works for as a lightning cable and mirco usb cable..... Both will charge the earbuds. Also you get two sets of ear tips small and large and the earbuds have a mid size on them already. My Amazon friends things are mass produced and during production you will have like in any other product defective units that leave the factory, but remember you have a one year warranty and I'm sure that they will back it up or Amazon will. All I can say is that after a full week I am very pleased with my purchase and guess what I did, I bought a second pair....the gray ones....lol ! The only cons I have at the time of this review is that they charge you more for the gray ones, than the red ones, and the earbud pads are little in different in feel from the gray and red earbuds, but in no way is it a deal breaker. At their price point and with what you get these are a very good deal, especially from a unknown brand. I can only see with time how they do, but for now these earbuds rock. I have a one year warranty on them so I'm not worried. Wish you all good luck.
For $40 I think they are pretty high quality. My husband has the Beats version and he said they look pretty much identical. The sound quality is pretty good. I like that I can talk on the phone using them. I have small ears so it was a concern for me that they would fall off. I went to the gym and tested them out and they worked out great. I have wore them around the house for 3 hours at a time and they didn't cause any pain or soreness. Score! I purchased the extended warranty to go along with them too. My husband is considering buying a pair too. Awesome buy!
