Does the Product Work? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

On my local news, they have this segment like once a week on products (usually the ones shown on the infomercials, and others too such as "Orange Clean" "Oxi-Glo" "The Pancake Maker" Etc)..

I found this kinda interesting. Have any of you bought products that didnt work? If so, share.

-On the news, there was a segment on the Pancake Maker. It doesnt work, the pancake mix just spills out when u flip it over.
-Orange Clean is a different story kinda. Some people have said it works beautifully, while others say it doesnt work at all. The solution is using a large amount. The news pointed out that when you see the advertiser use it, he uses about half a freaking bottle just to get a tomato stain off a carpet!

I've used the Orange Clean stuff. It works fine I mean I don't know if it's really any different then any other things I've used like that but I like it.

Yeah, Revo Styler. In the commercial it showed them do it so easily, all lies! It can't even go that close to your head or else it starts going crazy, with a straightener you can. I guess this product could make the bottom of your hair look better in about five hours after you use it. Waste of money.

I wash my shower with orange clean. It smells good and it works pretty good, and I dont need Billy Mays to scream that in the camera in order for me to use it.

It's like in barbie playhouse adds, the kids set it up easily, when in real like if you try get everything to snap into place you cut yourself. Or in the kids toy workshop, the kid builds a model airplane that flies great- no one can do it. and the make your own candy, I've never seen anyone make their own chocolate easter egg properly without using up all the stuff, and the make your own candles kit- it looks like poo

I can't breathe!!!!!!

And one more thing- those miracle workout gyms say at the bottom- to be used in conjunction with a well balanced diet!

I've tried that Oxy Clean stuff and I didn't notice any big difference. I put a scoop in with my load of laundry but the clothes didn't come out any cleaner than usual.
