Talk:McMaster-Carr/Archives/2016

Website

I'm sorry, I had to laugh as I read: "The McMaster-Carr website has been used as a positive example of link rich design and good user interface[citation needed]. Even though the site allows access to over 465,000 products, it is easy to penetrate directly to the desired categories and compare alternatives." I find the online catalog EXTREMELY ANNOYING to use because it refuses to allow you to open other tabs to compare back and forth between materials, you MUST go in a line: forward, back, or lose the thread of your thought and try to reconsruct what you were thinking earlier to get the two items you wanted to compare in an order next to each other. It also insists on noxious window panes. In my opinion, it's an AWFUL website. This is not up to wikipedia standards. I don't know where the tag for Blatant Advertising is.

• • Just because you have a personal issue with their website's flow doesn't mean it's blatant advertising... real users of the site wrote this page rather than the company itself**

My suspicion is that the image is fair use because it's McMaster-Carr who put it up.

Can't you just open a new browser tab? That's what I do........No problems. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.49.220.174 (talk) 18:02, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Truly the EASIEST supplier website to navigate. (Written from an actual user, not a paid advertisement) I concur. I do a lot of purchasing and this is by far the most informative and easy to navigate website out there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.90.139.217 (talk) 18:53, 29 February 2016 (UTC)
