Quick and Easy Grocery List Organizer!
By Slim JimVerified Reviewer from Chesapeake, VA on 5/31/2008
Pros:
Easy to set up, Easy to use, Intuitive controls
Best Uses:
Any Grocery Item
Describe Yourself:
Casual Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This organizer is a snap to set up. It's magnetic, so I keep it on my fridge door (where my old paper list used to hang). Just push one button and say what item you'd like to add. When you're ready to go to the store, just hit "Print". The voice recognition has a small learning curve, but you can add your own words which makes it a lot easier. Overall, an utstanding product.

Good construction, High quality
Best Uses:
Moms, Seniors
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Bought this for my dad who has hand tremors making writing difficult. He could not read his own lists. This is GREAT. He just says what he needs, prints it out and off he goes to the store and errands. A bonus is that it organizes the list into categories as well.
This is also great for busy moms like me who can never find paper when I notice I am running low on something. I just record what I need and it is there!

Pros:
Easy to operate
Cons:
Slow printer
Best Uses:
Anywhere anytime
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this grocery assistant! I am busy every minute it seems and when I think of something we need I forget about it by the time I get to sit down and write out a list. The assistant is so nice because as I see something missing out of the fridge or pantry, I just talk into my assistant and save the item. It recongnized my voice and my husbands with no problem. It only doesn't recognize what you are saying if there a lot of background noise. No more scratching adding and squeezing in my items on the paper list that you can't read by the time I go shopping! This prints out the organized neat list for you just like that! It's just a little slow, but that is not a problem when I think of the time and frustration I go through when trying to get a neat organized complete list written down. I recommend this to all shoppers!

This will remember everything!
By judyibeVerified Reviewer from Parma, OH on 4/4/2008
Pros:
Good construction, High quality, Intuitive controls, You can add your errands, You can customize to suit
Cons:
Printing snafus, Recognition not the best
Best Uses:
All my errands, Elaborate Meals, Simple Meals
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this product! My time is very precious and demanding, so I need this "secretary" to bring order. I like the ability to customize it to suit my needs. You can add any type of product that you use or any store in which you shop.

The voice recognition sometimes isn't so great, but I generally can get it to work right.

The print function doesn't always print right away. Sometimes I have to open and shut the battery housing.

I would recommend this - but would let people know the problems I have had.

This is absolutely one of the coolest gadgets I have ever bought. I love it! I just say what I want, and there it is. I can highlight the item, hit select and click on whether or not I have a coupon for it. I can highlight item, and select quanity and change the quanity like from 1 to 50, if I wanted. This thing has just about everything you can think of in the library already. If not in library, you can just add your own items to the library. You can add errands you need to run, too. When you are ready to go, just hit print and it prints out your list, catorgorized!! Getting one for my Mom for her birthday. Co-worker saw mine, and is getting one for his wife. Just too, too cool!!!

Good things come in small packages!
By ABrownVerified Reviewer from Nashville, TN on 2/20/2008
Pros:
Good construction, Great organizer, High quality
Cons:
Picky voice recognition
Best Uses:
Large Kitchens, Simple Meals, Small Kitchens
Describe Yourself:
Casual Cook
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great way to easily organize your shopping but it is very tempermental about voice recognition. You sometimes have to repeat yourself until you are ready to throw the thing out the window before it understands your voice command. If you can look past that, however, it is a wonderful technological tool!

This is one of the greatest gifts I've ever received. It is so easy to use and at the push of a button you tell the machine what you need and when you are done just push the button and it prints out your list so shopping is easy. This device has everything preprogrammed with specific items that you need at the store. I can't imagine going shopping without it.

This item should be in every home! Instead of losing small lists all over the house, now immediately when you run out of something, you stop and say it and it is immediately on your list. It makes running out of an item fun. Then your trips for your errands and to the grocery is all printed out for you and you don't forget anything while out! LOVE IT! WISH I WOULD HAVE HAD IT SOONER!

A bit pricy, but awesome to own. If entering a large name, the unit accepts it ok, however when choosing it for the shopping list, it will lock up the unit and you can not reset it. I had to exchange my unit twice due to this problem. After speaking with a rep, her's locked up as well....something that they were not aware of and hopefully they will address this problem.

I can go shopping now and not have to call home to ask "what does this say?" It takes a bit of time to get used to the operation and the voice recognition, but in the end it's worth it. The only thing that I object to is the price of the paper.

 
Good Idea but. . .

Pros:
Easy to learn
Cons:
Difficult to get items ok
Best Uses:
Large Kitchens, Small Kitchens
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cook
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The main problem with the Smartshopper is that it doesn't give you enough time to chose the right item when it gives you a choice. Also, brand names do not appear. I bought it for a sight impaired senior citizen, but it was not useable for someone who needs to read the screen for longer than a few seconds.

This product has some great features and is handy. You have to be sure to get the best use from the voice recoginition the room is COMPLETELY quiet, absolutley no background noise and you speak very loudly. When you are trying to record something quickly on your way out that can get difficult but for the most part a neat product.

A Real Time Saving Shopping Organizer
By Tech-TonyVerified Reviewer from Somerset, NJ on 1/4/2008
Pros:
High quality, Intuitive controls
Cons:
Requires Some Patience, Voice Sensitive
Best Uses:
Shopping, To Do Lists
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is so helpful in organizing shopping lists by category which equates closely to super market aisles. There is no perfect voice recognition software out there today but I found this to be pretty good. You must invest some upfront time playing with it and it will learn to recognize items. It keeps improving through repeated use. It will quickly become a great time saver. It is a great way to compile a list as you think of things between shopping trips and then just print the list when you go to the market. I bought this for my wife whho is technologically impaired and proud of it and she even loves this product. I highly recommend it.

I like the item for the most part. it does not recognize some items we get on a regular basis. Also does not refer to an item as we do but once it is found it's OK. Happy with my purchase.

Pretty good voice recognition for women, harder for men. Haven't used the "learning" mode yet for items not in the pre-recorded items.

My husband cooks, I shop and we have 2 kids - a recipe for not knowing what's in the cupboards. Get the kids and husband to say what they use so I know what to buy - awesome!

What an awesome product! Just put the batteries in and put it on the fridge! The rear magnets are strong and hold tight (but it also comes with a wall mount). It is ready to go out of the box. It recognized my list 9 out of 10 times. Certainly no inconvenience to repeat myself if it didn’t get it the first time. The list prints out great, I love how it categorizes the items by where you would find them in the store (produce, dairy, etc.). If you are thinking of buying one, you WON’T be disappointed!
