Pretty Thin
By Product Dudz from SC on 11/16/2011
2out of 5
Chest Size: Feels true to size
Sleeve Length: Feels true to length
Price:  $39.99 - $44.99
Pros: Stylish, Great Color, Soft, Comfortable
Cons: Pricey poor value, Thin Fabric, Poor Quality
Best Uses: Going Out, Mild weather only
This sweater is pretty but, was a tad too short. It also had pockets on the side that were at an unflattering area where the hips are. Because the pockets are not stitched down, if you have a spare tire these pockets will only make them look bigger. The pockets have no real use and should be eliminated. This sweater is very thin, and somewhat see through. Be careful of what type of bra you wear under it. Depending on what color you buy this sweater will be easy to see through. The other negative is this sweater is just too pricey for the quality of the fabric. It is thin, flimsy. A little thicker would have been nice.
Bottom line: Eliminate pockets, and make a little thicker. Ideal for cool Spring days, mild Fall weather only.
Product Dudz says: This product is neither great nor bad, its..OK

Bulky sweater
By Product Dudz from SC on 11/16/2011
3out of 5
Chest Size: Feels true to size
Sleeve Length: Feels long

Price:  $59.99 - $69.99

Pros:
Warm
Comfortable
Soft
Great Color

Cons:
Not flattering
Too Short
TOO BULKY

Best Uses:
Casual Wear, Cold Weather

The Breakdown:
This sweater is not the most flattering in the way that it drapes the body. It is a little too bulky and if a woman is heavy set through the middle it will emphasize this. It is also not quite long enough for anyone that is 5 foot 8 or taller it may be a little too short.
However this sweater is very thick and is a good choice during the colder months. It just missed the mark. Had it been little longer it would have draped better. The bottom of the sweater is crocheted, so you can add to the length or introduce another color if you know how to crochet.
The Bottom Line:
If you have a shorter torso and are strictly looking for something to provide extra warmth, this sweater may be ideal for you, however for heavier, taller women, this sweater seems a little bulky, too short and not as flattering to the figure.  Product Dudz rates this sweater as:

Factory worker tested
By Product Dudz from 11/16/2011


3out of 5
Sizing: Feels true to size
Width: Feels true to width
Price: Can be found at King Size Direct on sale for
$ 67.99 - $ 71.99


Cons: 
Not Durable/ Wears Easily
No sufficient padding
Too Stiff/Not Flexible
Long Break-in

Best Uses: 
Average use
Heavy Loads
Day Hiking
Light factory work


These boots were tested by a factory worker that works 12 hour days and is required to walk around 7 miles or so per day. The first day of wearing these boots had the tops of the feet inflamed and red. There should be more padding in the tongue area of these boots to produce a better fit on the top. They took a longer break in period than expected. 
The  Bottom Line:
These boots are fairly sturdy, and will probably last a good while, however after putting it through several days in a fast paced, rough environment they were found to be rather uncomfortable and caused some redness and soreness.  If comfort is important to you, pass these up. If  you don't have to do a lot of walking and be on your feet for 12 hours every day, these may be ok for you.  They are no better than any pair of boots you can find in any retail store.
Therefore, Product Dudz deems these boots as:

This product holds up well and the gel padded shoulders will also last a very long time even with many years of washing. This product was purchased 7 years ago by members of Product Dudz review team and was found to be a very comfortable, supportive bra designed to meet or exceed the expectations of women that are well endowed.
The Bottom Line:
You can easily view this item and more reviews on the Walmart site, however, Product Dudz can save you the trouble, if you are looking for a comfortable, supportive bra that will last for years, you can't go wrong with the brand.

Alli Weight Loss Aid Product Review

Medication used for obesity. Orlistat and sibu...Image via WikipediaAlli is a weigh tloss pill with the generic name of Orlistat. It's claims is that when taken as directed, with high fat meals that the user will in fact lose weight. Other forms of this pill are under the names Xenical and Meridia which your doctor may prescribe. However, since Orlistat is now available without prescription there is little sense in going to the doctor for a prescription. It is recommended that you talk with your doctor before taking this weight loss pill. Why? Well there are a few side effects that was experienced by the testers from Product Dudz.

They are as follows:
Severe stomach cramping after taking recommended dosage with a high fat meal
Excessive flatulence that produced oily discharge that leaves a stain (if you are in public and pass gas, you could very well find yourself with a large stain on the seat of your pants)
Diarrhea-like symptoms that will come on suddenly and can cause uncontrollable rectal leakage

Price: Amazon lists this product at $35.99 for 60ct bottle
(which translates to about a month worth typically)

Does it work?
Well, after trying this product for several months, no noticeable weightloss was experienced. If you work in public this product is not for you. Taking this during your afternoon lunch hour could mean going home for the rest of the day.
The Bottom Line (literally)
If you notice the reviews on Amazon you will no doubt feel motivated to buy this product and give it a go. However the testers at Product Dudz caution you to realize that the people (reviewers on Amazon) that had the greatest success with this product improved their lifestyle with diet and exercise. Those experiencing little change did not do anything different with diet or excercise.  Product Dudz is thereby inclined to believe that anyone will experience weight loss by diet and exercise alone with out the use of Alli or Orlistat. Product Dudz feels people may be giving credit falsely to Alli where their own efforts were the genuine cause for their success.
Product Dudz also cautions you to further investigate the link at the bottom of this post about information posted on the Alli website with regards to health and safety.
This product causes very unsavory, inconvenient side effects from oily stain producing gas and stools to severe stomach cramps, and abrupt diarrhea like symptoms. You must speak to your doctor about this diet pill because some people on certain medications and with certain conditions should not take Orlistat in any form.
Gas, Oily stains, Diarrhea, Cramps, =DUD, Product Dudz gives this product a thumbs down. It simply isn't worth all of the unpleasant side effects.
