Customer Review: Acceptable, but overall disappointing
This book does not live up to expectations. Found that many of the photos are poor quality/amateur in nature. Some cellars displayed are spectacular but many are ho-hum. Nor does the book have any substantive material. Simple text descriptions accompany photos but only so much can be learned by looking at pictures. I agree with other reviews that this is a good coffee table or “idea” book. However, I expected more interesting photos with meaningful descriptions of the space, conditions, materials, lighting, etc… If you have to have it buy it used.

A much better book is: The Home Wine Cellar: A Complete Guide To Design And Construction by Perry Sims. While it doesn’t have as many photos, those it does have are more inspiring and accompanied by good information on cellar design and construction.

Customer Review: Cellar space
Its a good coffee table book, Some great photos with good ideas, and some general information for those looking to build a cellar. I’m glad to have it.

Customer Review: Do the mosquito knot this is a trap?
Living by a creek…lots of mosquitos. Purchased 3 units. Within 1.5 months I counted 1 musquito traped within the 3 units! I have dumped all 3 units to the garbage. I was expecting from Honeywell not to put such a garbage on the market. May be I am wrong in case the machine indeed traps
the mosquitos and immediatelly makes them invisible…or may be the mosquitos in Florida are really clever and the machine is made for Alabama mosquitos only.
P.S beside the infernal machine makes an anoying noise during the night. If you want to get rid of your mother-in-law I do recommend to buy one and put it in her room.

Customer Review: Didn’t work for us
Unfortunately, this product did not alleviate our mosquito problem. We have had it turned on for days and have only caught one mosquito. Many more are flying around mocking us with glee. Also, the problem with this machine is that it is very loud and exceptionally bright. You can’t have it in your room at night because it’s like having a huge fluorescent light on. Bummer.
