This camera doesn't take or print the best pictures, but I don't think that is the point of this camera. The camera is more for fun than for quality, as the pictures print immediately from the camera and have sticker backing. I would say this is fun for younger kids only though. My 4 and 6 year olds love snapping random photos and decorating things with them.
Outside during the day, picture taking is easy. Inside, we figured out quickly that you need good lighting and the auto flash doesn't always turn on when you want it to.
We've also had a mini polaroid type camera, and I prefer that type more for the price and the kids novelty of shaking the picture to develop it.

This mesh wi-fi system has eliminated the dead spots around my house and even outside in the yard. We have our internet set up on one side of the house where it's out of the way. With my old LInksys router, we had a few dead spots and would lose connection in the driveway and garage. After the easy setup with these nodes, we now have coverage everywhere we need it with no noticeable speed loss. Switching from node to node is unnoticeable. I also set this up with the same router name and password as my previous router, so everything automatically connected with no issues. Would definitely recommend if you have dead wi-fi areas in your house or if you just want even more coverage out the yard.

Was looking for a no frills coffee maker to give us a pot of hot coffee that tastes good every morning. When I found this one, I was skeptical since it does so much more. After using it for while now, we love all of the options to make a good hot or cold coffee drink. Yes it makes really good hot coffee. Actually the coffee tastes much better in this than the brand name pod brewer we replaced. The insulated carafe keeps coffee hot enough for us all morning. I like the different drink size options. You can fill anything from a mug to a whole pot. The cold brewer makes fantastic cold brew. Haven't tried making tea with it yet, but I'm sure it will make good tea as well.

This printer was very easy to setup and connect to wifi. Finding the printer on my phone and computer worked the first time and printed without a hitch. I opted to download the software for the printer on my Mac since it doesn't have a cd drive and found the software and installed it with no problems.
Since then, I've printed on letter size paper, printed photos, used the copier, and the tray scanner. I have not and do not plan on using the fax machine portion so I cannot speak to that. The printer is quick; almost as fast as a laser printer for color pages and just as good of quality. The pictures I've printed so far look fantastic. They look just as good as any digital printer I've sent pictures to at stores. I am hopeful that the promise of two years worth of ink that came with this printer holds up. I was expecting multiple ink cartridges in the box but there is only one of each color! Let's hope it really lasts!
The scanner works awesome. I've scanned several work documents to my computer and they look just like any scans I would make on the large machine at my office. Keeps me from having to go to the office just to scan something. The copier works good too. Black and white and color copies look almost as good as the original.
Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Keep carpets fresh with this Rug Doctor Pro deep carpet cleaning machine. The clean and dirty water tanks are easy to remove, and powerful suction provides professional-level cleaning that surpasses ordinary rental carpet cleaners. The lightweight design and easy-grab handle of this Rug Doctor Pro deep carpet cleaning machine facilitate user-friendly cleaning.

So far I've been pretty pleased with this rug doctor. It has cleaned my carpets really well and leaves them smelling fresh. You wouldn't believe the black water that I empty out of the dirty water tank after using it! Don't expect a miracle though. It's not going to make really old and worn carpets look brand new, but it sure will clean them!
Pros:
-Two tanks. One for clean soapy water and one for dirty.
-Easy to use and setup.
-Works as well if not better than the rental units from the grocery store.

Cons:
-Heavy and hard to steer
-Did not get rid of all old stains on the first pass. Lightened them up, but did not completely remove them. I'll try pre-treatment in the future and hope for better stain removal.
-Did not come with any attachments. Will have to buy those separate in the future.

I'd recommend anyone looking for an effective carpet cleaner without having a company come do it!

Add lighting control to your smart home platform with this Sengled bulb three-pack plus hub. The hub controls up to 64 smart bulbs, turning them on or off and dimming them in response to app or voice assistant commands and programs. This Sengled bulb three-pack plus hub includes classic A19-style bulbs for compatibility with most home fixtures.

I've been skeptical about the home automation thing for a while. I didn't think voice commands for lights, outlets, etc. would be worth it. Having this simple smart bulb package has completely changed my mind. The install was a breeze. Just download the Sengled app on your phone, plug the hub into your router and you're good to go. Controlling the lights with the app is easy and I love the dimming feature. I have also set up these lights to work with my Google Home and it's easy to turn on/off all lights or one light at a time with voice commands since I was easily able to give each light a nickname in the Home app.
I'd recommend this to anyone who's interested in getting started with home automation and wants lights that you can turn on/off using different methods. Light scheduling is even available in the Sengled app of you want them to come on and turn off at the same time every day.

Good Sound, Decent Noise Cancellation
on April 11, 2018
Posted by: TheStump
from Athens, GA
These headphones have very good sound. I have the PS Gold headset and have always loved the sound during games, music, and movies. These sound just as good, and even better with music. Just the right amount of deep bass without drowning out everything else.
Battery life seems very good so far. I've listened to theses a few time for a full day of work and they make it through easily.
I like the downloadable phone app, where you can adjust the EQ, but really sticking with the out of box sound works the best for me.
The active noise cancellation of these headphones is just okay. They will cancel out steady background noise, such as a fan or air purifier. I'm sure they'll be great for this on a plane. However, compared to some other noise cancelling headphones I've used, these do not stack up. They do not cancel out any other noises, such as voices or other one off noises that aren't steady and low.
The worst thing I've discovered about these is they are very hot. Hotter than most other over the ear headphones I've used. It doesn't take long for these to heat up my ears and want to switch to my wireless earbuds. This is a shame because they are very comfortable to wear and would be great to wear for extended periods if not for the heat factor.

Fantastic Sound and Battery Life
on March 15, 2018
Posted by: TheStump
from Athens, GA
So far this speaker has been a surprise. I was not expecting such high quality sound comparable to some higher priced speakers I've used. Connecting to the speaker was a breeze. I was up and running in a few minutes and the speaker arrived with 70 percent battery life which was nice. I immediately left the speaker on and playing music for about 8 hours and there was still plenty of battery life left, about 25 percent. So the claim of 24 hrs of battery on a single charge may be accurate!
The finish is rugged enough to withstand a fair amount punishment, and the waterproof and dust proof features mean this speaker can go anywhere.
To customize the speaker, you must download the Music Center app to your phone. With this app, you can customize the sound via three preset setting (normal, extra bass, and live sound). You can also adjust the sound manually with the equalizer. So far I have used the three presets and love the live sound. I doubt I'll even mess with the manual EQ.
Now for the gimmicks built into this speaker. I feel like the party lighting and beat box sound effects when you bang on the speaker and absolutely unnecessary. They are nothing but gimmicks and add nothing to the speaker in my opinion. My 3 and 5 year old daughters think they are neat and all, but I really don't ever plan on using this feature, especially since they eat up battery life. The lighting and beatbox features can be turned on and off through the app.
I would recommend this speaker over the xb21, mainly because the battery life is supposed to last twice a long, but also it's a bit larger (but not too large for a suitcase or pool bag or something) which likely means it's louder.
If you're looking for a great sounding waterproof, dustproof bluetooth speaker at a reasonable price, I'd say this is the one.

Incredible Sound and Clear Voices finally!
on January 9, 2018
Posted by: TheStump
from Athens, GA
I could not be happier with the MagniFi Max so far. I am by no means an audiophile, but this sound bar has crystal clear sound straight out of the box, and the wireless woofer provides enough bass to shake our house. This thing will get very loud while still maintaining the clear sound.
The best feature is the manual voice control that actually works. I've been looking for a soundbar that will create clear voices in my vaulted ceiling great room and have finally found it. I am finally able to hear what people are saying during shows, movies, games, and sports clearly at lower volumes. I'm no longer constantly turning the volume up to hear voices, then down again during action scenes or during music.
Setup was easy, but it took me a few minutes to figure out that I had to plug my Amazon Fire stick, bluray player, and satellite box directly into the soundbar instead of leaving them plugged into the TV like I did with my old soundbar.
Streaming music to my Google Home in my kitchen and this soundbar is an awesome feature as well. One I have used several times already and will any time I listen to music in the house. The only problem I've run into is getting the soundbar to switch back to sound for the TV without turning the soundbar off and back on. Maybe I'm missing something, but it's not apparent to me.
Overall I would highly recommend this soundbar.
