I ordered this as a Christmas gift for my wife, who this product seemed ideally suited for. (i. e. She makes two long grocery lists each week for some complicated and delectable dinners. ) The features seemed ideal and, with a price this high it seemed more than a toy. Well, it was LESS than a toy. Voice recognition might as well not be listed as a feature. The display screen went blank the second time we used it and a call to Smartshopper’s technical support (sounded like someone working in their basement) could offer no advice. I printed two short lists and the type was barely legible on the left-hand side of the print out. There is no way to enter a grocery list with a keyboard (well, one which made sense anyway). This device is a piece of junk and I recommended that Amazon drop it (and Smartshopper) from any product offering in the future. DO NOT BUY THIS!

This works very well for us, but like some users, the voice recognition is not as good as we would like. The thing you have to remember is that you cannot just say “tomatoes. ” You have to say “canned tomatoes” or “fresh tomatoes. ” It has been really helpful to us so far.

I bought this for my wife as a Christmas gift. We were both excited. After 3 minutes out of the box it stopped working. The display went blank and that was it. Removing and replacing the batteries and performing a unit reset for a “lock up” according to documentation would not fix the problem. Disappointing gift.

Saw the other reviews, so got this for my wife. My wife loves her lists, so the concept of the whole family putting in items and then printing out categorized was tempting.
Unfortunately, it’s like the product I got is completely different than what the others are using. Very few items are recognized, even after re-recording the item. I’ve had 3 people try to put in something as simple as olive oil and it’s not found in the library. You can manually enter items from the library but there is no simple/fast way to do this. You can go alphabetically and scan through the enter library item by item (certainly they can figure out a much more efficient way to scan through the library) or by category (but still horribly inefficient).
Definitely not worth a hundred dollars – save your money and just put out a pad and paper.

This product has been great. It has recognized everything I have needed for my groceries and errand running except one thing and that was easy to add to the library. It is very easy to use in general and the magnet holds well also. No regrets!
