Produk plasma cluster pun sudah diakui disemua merek, kayak model Toyota yang Camry barukan pakai ACnya plasma clusterkan. Menurut kustomer juga produknya Sharp bukan main2.
Rekan-rekan, apa ya, padanan bahasa Inggris yang paling pas untuk 'bukan main-main' seperti pada kalimat di atas?
Thanks,

exceptionally
As an adverb applying to 'sharp', an equivalent could be selected from 'very', 'extremely', 'remarkably', 'exceptionally'.
Although 'sharp' is an English word, I am not sure it would be appropriate in all target contexts. If in doubt, use 'good'.

: Sharp is a (Japanese?) brand for electronic products. My own experience shows it has a very good price-against-value for under-21" tv set.

not to be disregarded, not inconsiderable
Dalam percakapan, cenderung ada bagian yang hilang karena pendengar dianggap mengerti.
Kalimat bakunya, IMO, adalah: "Juga, menurut kustomer, kualitas produk Sharp bukan main-main." Nah, "bukan main2" di sini = "tidak boleh diabaikan, tidak boleh tidak diperhitungkan".
Jadi: Also, according to customers, the quality of Sharp products is not to be disregarded [not inconsiderable].

Dokumen ini adalah transkrip wawancara informal, dan mungkin bisa terlihat dari gaya bahasa yang digunakan.
Jawaban yang lain sebenarnya oke sekali, tapi setelah saya timbang-timbang, rasanya "Not just an ordinary product" adalah yang paling pas untuk gaya bahasa yang dipergunakan dalam wawancara ini.
