I just installed the program a few days ago, but have been having problems ever since. The program generally doesn't launch successfully - it pops up a window saying I need to wait for important notifications, and it never gets past that. Then, it wants me to update the Federal tax program. But the update froze the first time I tried it, and it won't get past that point now. So I'm using the older version of the program that I got on the CD they shipped me. And when I finally do get into the program and start entering data, I find that it imports my federal long and short term loss carryovers, but not the state ones. Some of these problems seem to keep occurring year after year, like the hangups during the update procedure. But overall I would say the program is much buggier this year.

I bought this machine for making quilts. I also purchased a quilting feed pressure walking foot. The maching is great, and doing just what I expected, so far, as I have only been using it 10 days now. With the additional foot, it is doing a great job of huge quilting tasks, and home repairs and clothing. It is heavy enough to stay in place without walking all over, and is very much like the Singer I purchased 20 years ago. It is simple, but had a bit of trouble figuring out the drop in bobbin. It is not computerized so I will not have to replace a computer board! I do not need a light weight maching to make pretty little stitches, and fall apart when it comes to sewing denim. This one is great, and a great machine if you already have a fancy computerized machine and wnat one for heavy home use. this is not a commercial maching, just a good, dependable machine. Now the foot is another issue. I looked up the part and number on line, and wrote it down and ordered it from the Joanne Fabric store near my house. Their sewing machine department is called Viking. They did not even know the part number, but ordered the foot. It came in just one week...in a box that was lettered in Chinese, not packages for sale in the USA, without ID of any kind, and nothing written in English. I never bought anything like this in the USA before, but have in Canada where they do not require meeting such high sales requirments. I was told when I called that this was the right part (nearly $30) and to trust them. I could bring it back if it did not work or was the wrong part. But what the heck, I bought something that tells me nothing at all on the box, period! So I guess I have to trust them. So far the part is working very well, but I cannot tell you the part number or any info at all. I recommend the machine.

I have used this system for the past 5 years and have perfect results. It took initially about 8 weeks before I truly noticed a difference. Since then... EVERY time I go to the dentist I am always complimented on the whiteness of my teeth, as well as by strangers and others. I do really like this product. NOTE: Your teeth can become sensitive to the "whitener" after a long period of use - just stop using for a couple weeks and your teeth will be normal again. The toothpaste works great. As with any new item, give it at least 90 days before you make your decision about the "whitening" effect.
