A Practical Product
on April 1, 2018
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was skeptical of the practicality of this product when I first heard about it; however, I decided to try out a set of four out of curiosity. Surprisingly, it grew on me. Turning lights on and off while away or if my hands were full of groceries, etc certainly contributed to some quality of life improvements. More recently, I was very pleased trying out one feature useful when taking trips/vacations. The app enables set up of a random on/off schedule that worked well while I was on an extended vacation. I would recommend this product if you can relate to some of the benefits I have listed.

Keep devices working with this box of assorted Insignia batteries. The 33-battery pack includes AAA, AA, C, D and 9-volt batteries, so you're never caught without a match for a toy or tool. Organize these assorted Insignia batteries in the included handy plastic case to keep clutter down in drawers.

Good Battery Organizer
on April 1, 2018
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I shopped around quite a bit for this item including Amazon, and alternative options were close to the regular price of this item. However, if you can catch the sale price, it is definitely worthwhile. The organizer comes with several types of batteries contained within a hard plastic case. My only critique would be the flimsy plastic latches that hold the container lid locked. The first product I received had one latch missing, so I had to do an exchange.

Alexa On the Go
on February 14, 2018
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
If I could give 4.5 stars I would. Customers who are familiar with Alexa should feel right at home with this device. It offers a lot of the same features and functions as an Echo dot or Echo including smart home control, music playback, etc. The device itself is very compact and easy to set up. It requires both the Alexa app and the Garmin app. Audio playback is routed through your car stereo via bluetooth or aux cable. The only reason I did not give this device 5 stars is the placement of the power port to power the device, which is on the right hand side of the unit. This requires extra effort to hide the cable in your car trim. It would make more sense to have it on the left side since the device is intended to be placed in the upper left corner of the windshield. Other than that, it's great

Good Fit for the Active Lifestyle
on February 1, 2018
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
At first I was unsure if I really needed a "true" wireless ear bud since I had a pair of Bluetooth headphones with a short wire that goes around the back of the neck. However, I have to say, after using these ear buds for running, weightlifting, and high intensity training, I grown to like them. I have had no issue with them falling out and no wire means no hassle getting tangled on a flat bench or other gym equipment. They also have great sound quality, are easy to pair, and have a decent battery life of about 3.5hours. I'd definitely recommend these for their versatility

Nothing Special
on January 27, 2018
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I upgraded to the S8+ from the S6 Edge+ and honestly I do not notice much of a difference in capabilities. There is an improvement in the camera and battery, but other than that, if my prior phone had not become unreliable, I would have passed on getting this one

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my 5th pack of the A19 bulbs. Once the Hue bridge is setup, adding bulbs takes only a couple of minutes. I use Google/Alexa to control my lights, set timers, and change the colors. These become more practical the more you get used to them

Huge Monitor. Great Video Quality
on December 16, 2017
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
For a 4K monitor at 28" in size, it is definitely worth the price, especially for those who game. I have yet to fully test the 4K resolution, but from my research, I know it will handle the mid-line gaming I will be doing. My only complaint is that out of the box the base plate was defective in that the housing would not line up properly with the neck of the monitor; therefore, the monitor has a slight alignment issue. It's a very minor inconvenience, so I did not exchange it for another.

Great Gadget for Older SmartTVs
on December 16, 2017
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought a Chromecast Ultra to compensate for my older SmartTVs lack of functionality. It is an LG that comes with the basic spread of apps, but not those I use often (e.g. FandangoNow). The device is super fast to setup (<5min) and is very intuitive as long as you have the appropriate apps downloaded on your smartphone, tablet, etc. Now the only thing this is missing is Amazon apps like Prime Video; however, there is another device needed for that...

Good Fridge for the Price
on December 16, 2017
Posted by: kman1088
from New Lenox, IL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this on sale during Black Friday and can't say I am not satisfied. The construction is durable and it will fit a variety of smaller drinks including 32 oz Powerades. What would make this a 5 star fridge is if there were an alarm that sounded if the door was not shut all the way.

This is my first time buying a smart bulb. I don’t have any other smart items in my house. Could you please explain how exactly I can use it. Or can I just plug into a regular lamp and connect it to my phone. Or do I need something ?

Hello, you need to buy the starter kit or Hue hub to really enjoy the benefits of this product. The hue hub connects to your route/modem and from there you can utilize the Hue app from the Play store to set up brightness, on/off schedules, etc. If you decide to buy a Google/Amazon voice assistant, you can also connect your lights to their respective apps to enable voice activated light control, which is the best part.
