I ordered both from Williams-Sonoma williams-sonoma.com) This is where I first felt Screen Rage, a risk at many sites. This arises after you've just filled in every last scrap of personal data, except your shoe size and SAT scores, and the screen freezes on you.

Even before choosing a pattern or color, the customer must select the proper shape and size of cloth. Many shoppers may require guidance when considering the many options: the cafe, breakfast, European, dinner, printed round, topper, and harvest cloth.
