Well we have all seen the as seen on tv products, but who likes them or has tried any of their products? I love the shake weight I think that it is a great product to use. I have also tried the pink hair removers, but they are horrible. I would not waste my money on these again.
Have any of you tried these products and found something that you like or would recommend? I know mostly everything will be at walmart after they show it, but what have you tried?

In my country, as seen on TV products are usually very expensive. I haven´t bought any of them, but my daughter bought one of those miracles mops. Of course it was not a miracle. The only difference between that one and the unexpensive ones you get at the super was the price.

I once saw an awesome steam iron on TV. I thought that it would be the end of my ironing problems (which aren´t many as I only iron a few garments). I called the phone number provided and asked for the price. It was about 4 times more expensive than the best normal iron you can buy on the market. End of the iron dream

I am so bad at those things. I never ever buy them off TV but I see them in the store and I want them. I have the Food Saver vac sealer. I love it but dont use it today as much as I did when I got it. I have the Cricut paper cutter and I love it too but only really use it on holidays and to make cards. I used to use it to decorate the walls at my house but not so much any more. I have the Eggies to hard boil eggs out of the shell. They got really bad reviews online but I love them so so much. I have the p90X workout program and the Insanity program, still use them both and just mix them up. I seem to do a ton of research before I get them so I havent really had any I just dont like. If I had to list a favorite it would be the Eggies. Im sure there are more things I have today that I first saw on an infomercial though lol. I must have sucker written all over my face.

I am quite cautious about buying such products off the TV. Lot of lies and deception in the marketing! When I see some such products in the store and can see what they really are, then I sometimes reconsider.
Although some products sound really good, truth is that nobody needs them to live.

Those seen on TV products are amazing and they all look fabulous and work well. However, actually we can find them via the net easily and the price will be better, too. I can also see others comments about these products and it will be helpful for me to decide whether I shall buy it.
I love China

I have used a few products that were pretty neat but mostly I think the as seen on tv products arent worth the money. Most of them dont work as they are supposed to. There was a store that sold as seen on tv products and we bought some stuff the one thing didnt work and we tried to return it and they wouldnt let us I was so mad. They sell most of the stuff at walmart now. I've tried a few things. I believe the ped egg that I have was an as seen on tv product and I love it. I've heard the sham wow works really well too.

There was this one product that I believe my sister bought me from there. It was a pasta cooking thing. You boiled water and then poured it into the container with the pasta let it sit in their for a certain amount of minutes then twisted the lid off and it would strain the noodles. Well it didnt work very good and it would work just as easily to boil water with the pasta in it and then turn the heat off and let the noodles sit in boiling water until then strain them with a regular colinder. So I wound up using it to store spaghetti in because it could hold a few packages. Then it broke so I just keep spaghetti in its box now. I'm not sure what hair remover pads you used I had this one from as seen on tv that was a buffer basically. It had fine sandpaper sheets and you would rub it over your skin and it would take the hair off. Well it didnt work very good and it was extremely painful lol.

Oh yeah all of them are not worth anything at all. I have to say that the Instyler is good and I like that one, but I have not tried the others except the hair remover pads and those are horrible lol. I got them from the dollar store so I was not upset about them at all.
You know when something is bad, because they can sell it for only one dollar.

I think some of the products are very good and some of them are less costly. Here some channels shows TV products all the time. I have not tried any products, but will certainly try them. I think some shops that show products are also near the place and one can buy the products directly from them.
