    I bought this Tablet on sale. it's fast and easy to work on. I like the night reading mood(blear screen) to read while trying to sleep. the only thing that I don't like is the commercial it has on the locked screen. good for the money $$$

    This was a replacement for a year old HD7 which was having serious battery problems. I enjoy my Fire tablet very much and chose to replace it with another, This time I got the warranty with it.

    It's got a great price for what it does. It's not the fastest but it works. Now that being said, certain apps don't work well on it, but its the android app store so that's a plus.

    Perfect tablet that won't break the bank. The WIFI connectivity works great so you don't have to worry about weak signal strength or buffer time. We take this one on the road and leave the 10.1 at home.

    Very slow compared to my iPad. If you want something to read with as a Kindle, this will work, but if you want to surf the web, not for you.

    Hard to believe that so much computing/networking power could be had for under $50. It works fine and does what it's supposed to do. The opening page ads are only a minor distraction.

    We’ve had probably four of these in the past 18 months. They perform pretty well but don’t last long. Thw charging port busted on the last couple we had. Definitely get the warranty.

    Bought this for my Dad as a Christmas gift, so he’d have his own and not have to hijack my Mom’s own. It does what he needs it to do and he’s a Happy Camper. Great buy for the price.

    love the new Kindle fire. It' fast, efficient, powerful and so handy. With the keyboard and shell, it makes working outside of the house very easy. Plus, I get to read fantastic books, latest news, etc.

    Good and cheap. I don't mind having an ad in the background on the unlock page. Better than the galaxy tabs I have had in the past. Only downside is the lack of apps that are available.

    I bought this for my children and not be disappointed. It has a separate profile for kids so that you dont have to worry about unexpected purchases and they still have access to their apps.

    This is a nice tablet and for the money its worth it. There are disadvantages as to not able to get youtube app but there are workarounds to get it installed. Nice reading tablets for kids and plenty of books to choose from
