High Quality and Loads of Fun
on November 2, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
This microphone is extremely well built - with a solid heavy base and beautifully designed with gold accents, including ruins inscribed on the base.
Features that are useful for recording and live streaming include: four different pick up patterns for recording; a unique control knob that allows for setting volume on both the microphone and headset and balance; and visual metering on the mic.
Features that make this microphone just plain FUN are: an ability to customize the illumination colors of the control knob; various audio samples ranging from preset phrases to animal and background noises; and different character presets and effects that allow you to change your voice so you can sound like anything you want while speaking - from orcs to gnomes and everything in between.
The sound quality on recordings is very good - this will be my go-to microphone for recording training videos, and for streaming live.

There is a difference!
on October 28, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
I was skeptical at first, thinking all hair dryers are the same - they blow out hot air to dry the hair. I'm not sure how this Moda One dryer does it with their sensor technology, but this device dries hair quicker and leaves it not feeling dried our or frizzy. It never gets hot - but uses just enough heat to dry as needed. Even the air coming out of it feels different - softer. The magnetic attachments are extremely easy and convenient to put on and off.
This hair dryer truly is remarkable and there is a difference between the Moda One and my "cheap" hair dryer.

Beautiful Coffee Maker
on October 20, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
This coffee maker, with it's brushed stainless and copper accents, is very nice looking on the counter. It has great features including brew strength and temperature options. Another nice feature is that the cord can be wrapped underneath to minimize the amount that sticks out.
The directions were a little difficult to understand, but once figure out how to select strength, temperature and quantity - is easy to do.
I gave it four stars because the WiFi seems very unneeded and I would like to see the water tank be removable for easy filling.
Overall, very happy with features and the stylish design. The packaging was very nice and practical also.
Most importantly - the coffee tastes great!

This toaster is fairly basic but has nice features including a Frozen, Bagel and Cancel button. The stainless finish is beautiful - looks nice on the counter and so far no finger prints. It also toasts quickly.

Perfect for dog hair!
on September 23, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
This vacuum is the best one I've owned for dog hair. It has much better suction than my other Shark and even my Dyson. When I unpacked it, I ran it through my living room and hallway, where my incredibly shedding dog, spends most of his time. It had only been a few days since I had vacuumed and I was amazed to see how much hair was in the canister (which is extremely easy to dump).
I checked the roller - and there was nothing on it! Great design.
Another good design is that the tools quickly fit into either the shorter flexible tube or the longer hose tube. The shorter flex tube works great for furniture.
There is a suction control as well as a switch to go from hard surfaces to carpet.
The only complaint I have is that the tools do not stay on the tool supports on each side - and one is right where the cord wraps around the cord holders. This is a complaint I have with all my vacuums. I can't take away any stars though, because the vacuum works so good!
Another recommendation would be a retractable cord.
Overall - the best vacuum if you battle pet hair.

Extremely Convenient and Versatile Appliance
on September 19, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
This is truly a countertop oven plus more... it bakes, toasts, air fry's, broils and has a convection feature.
I first tried the oven's bake mode on chocolate chip cookies. At first I thought I could only fit 9 cookies on the baking sheet, but on the second batch I baked 12 and they fit just fine. I tried the convection and the bake settings and both turned out good - the convection seemed to bake in less time.
I then tried pork chops, using the air fryer. I coated the chops with a rub and air fried on the baking sheet using parchment paper. They turned out great. I compared to some that I cooked on an indoor grill and they were better in the Oster oven. Very moist.
I also tried just toasting plain bread and it browned both sides evenly.
This oven is great for pizza! I added extras to a frozen pizza and it turned out delicious.
This is an appliance I will use frequently. You have to preheat or set the time by turning the timer past 20, but the dial has a reminder on it ... which is nice. It would be good to have a digital timer to get a more exact time, especially for the toast, but that is only a minor inconvenience. The rest of the dials are very easy to use and clearly marked.
The only negative is that it says in the manual to have 6" clearance around the oven. Sitting on my counter, I only have 4" between the oven and the cupboards. I still use it and it does not seem to get excessively hot so I'm not too concerned.
It also says to make sure the cord does not touch the back of the oven, which is almost impossible, so I have the oven pulled out quite a bit to avoid this. They should have made a retractable cord or put a "stopper" to prevent the cord from touching the oven. Again, an inconvenience but doesn't interfere with the great features this oven offers!

It does the job wonderfully!
on September 15, 2020

I like having a wired mouse to reduce interference with my other technology. This mouse is simple but practical. It is a little smaller than what I'm used to, and would like it to be a hair bigger, but after using it a few days - it is comfortable.
I really like the speed and responsiveness of the scroll wheel but mostly like that you can select a silent mode for the wheel!
The mouse has seven shortcut buttons, which help with common tasks and are a time saver, even using just a couple.
Overall, this mouse is great.

Best product I've reviewed
on August 13, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
This security camera has exceeded my expectations in all areas of both ease of use and performance. We live in a very rural setting with poor internet. We put the Lorex camera in my husband's shop, which is all metal and about 40 yards away from the house where the Wi-Fi modem is.
Out of the box (which was nicely packaged), the camera was extremely easy to install and comes with a variety of ways to mount it. It pivots easily on its base - we just stand it on a windowsill in the shop. The printed directions that came in the box were clear and concise - easy to follow.
The software (Lorex Home) was extremely easy to use, with step by step instructions for finding the device and setting it up.
Once set up (which took about 5 minutes), we put it in the shop and I went back to the house, not really expecting a connection. To our surprise, not only did it work, but the picture quality (1080p-HD) was amazing. The wide angle lens lets us see most of the shop which is 60'x100'. Sometimes, depending on the conditions, I'm not able to use the Live view which is not the fault of the system but rather our sketchy internet, yet even then it does record any movement or loud sounds.
A bonus is that I can use the microphone to tell him when dinner's ready without having to walk out there. That would be my only negative comment is that I wish I could increase the Microphone volume so he could hear it over his loud music. I was even able to talk over the microphone when I was 25 miles away (through extreme hills and valleys).
We had a recorded event at 4:14 a.m. and when we looked (I had turned off notifications) it was a bug walking across the camera lens. The night vision quality was very impressive since the shop was completely dark at that time.
Overall, the entire system is very well made and well thought out. We have an Arlo security system for outside and this system exceeds that in many ways - very impressive for the price point.

Excellent sound quality
on July 21, 2020
Posted by: PracticalSandy
from Gainesville, MO
I was anxious to try out the TalkGo microphone because I do a good amount of recording and had been having background noise issues. I currently use a "Snowball" mic and because my desktop computer is fairly loud, plus I have a rather noisy printer near the mic, I would always have this humming in the background. My software is capable of filtering out the noise, but it was bothersome.
I connected the TalkGo microphone and tested it a few times. I forgot to shut down the noisy printer the first time, but had recorded using the "Cardioid" feature on the mic. The sound quality was amazing and I did not even have to filter out any background noise from my desktop.
The set up was easy. I really like that the controls are on the front of the mic and that the head swivels easily on the stand. The Cardioid vs the Omni recording modes are great. Make sure to follow the quick start guide and point the mic in the correct position.
I am very impressed with this microphone and look forward to recording with it.

Bring bold color to your gaming hobby with this Razer Kraken analog headset. Thick padding and a lightweight construction make it ideal for extended wear, and the fully retractable microphone lets you adjust the device to meet your needs. This Razer Kraken analog headset has a long cable that provides flexibility of movement as you play.
 

Does your voice playback through the headset? I always have one earphone off so I can hear myself so I'm not too loud and that's how my last headset broke

That would be a setting on you computer - under the Sound setting. When you plug in the the earphone jack, it should play back in your headset. If you want to hear it through your speakers, unplug the earphone jack (leave the microphone jack plugged in to record).
