Still not sure...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed something larger than the iPhone 6 because my eyes are getting old, and I was encouraged to upgrade to the 7 Plus. There are some funky quirks about this phone that I can't figure out -- it should come with a teenager -- and I get a little frustrated. I would've preferred a Samsung for the size, except for the little issue they're having with exploding phones. I guess I'll get used to this.

I had a plastic cover on my previous iPad, and it never looked clean and clear. Spend the bucks for the glass cover -- it's worth it!

Great keyboard

Verified Purchase:Yes
I wasn't sure how much I would use the keyboard, since I didn't have one with my original iPad, but I use it all the time. This keyboard is awesome, with "real" keys that make typing easy. The cover is hard and protective. There's a storage space for the "pencil", but I still haven't used it yet. Not sure why I even bought it.

Pretty good machine...
on April 4, 2016
Posted by: Fred
Verified Purchase:Yes
Okay, I bought the Bissell because I didn't want to spend the ridiculously big bucks on the Zumba, and I found the Bissell on sale for next to nothing. Two issues I have are 1) I find that I spend a lot of time watching it do its thing, and 2) I haven't figured out how to program the barrier because the writing on the box is too small. I want to send pictures to all my friends of the amount of hair, fur, dust and unidentifiable stuff it picks up every time it runs, but that probably won't be as impressive to anyone else as it is to me. This is really a pretty good machine, especially for the money. And cheaper than dinner and a movie if you're looking for some entertainment!

My phones tend to take a lot of abuse, so I sprung for this cover and am glad I did. It has already saved my phone. Glad I spent the money.

These stainless-steel washing machine fill hoses are ideal for connecting most washing machines to hot and cold water.

No real choice...

Verified Purchase:Yes
When I purchased my new LG washing machine, these were the hoses that were recommended, so I didn't have any real choice and, frankly, wouldn't have known the difference. The installers seemed very pleased to have these stainless steel hoses rather than the plastic ones, so I guess that was the right selection.

I didn't research this item online, because I purchased one at Best Buy previously and was thoroughly educated by one of the sales people. When I needed another one for home use, I bought the same Netgear item, which happened to be on sale and was just what I needed!

This washer uses TurboWash technology to quickly wash large loads, while the TrueBalance antivibration system reduces noise.

Mostly happy with it...

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Sears service tech who gave last rites over my dying Kenmore washing machine -- which lasted only 4 years! -- told me to buy an LG and to get the 5-year warranty. All of my new kitchen appliances are LG, so I already had confidence in their products. I found this model on a killer deal from Best Buy and bought it. A couple weeks later it went on sale, and Best Buy immediately refunded the difference! Delivery and set up were fantastic. Machine works very well, though I always use the "Extra Rinse" cycle because without the agitator, I'm just not convinced that all the dirt and soap get removed. Maybe it's just me. Its is very tall -- I'm 5'8" and have to stand on tiptoes to reach items in the bottom -- so if you're on the short side, you might want to keep that in mind.

Can I wash water proof or water resistant items in this machine?

I heard that some He machines cannot wash water proof or resistant items because it causes imbalance. Can this machine wash water proof or resistant garments?
I remember seeing that question in the manual, and I'm pretty sure it said yes. Since it didn't apply to me, I didn't pay much attention, but I know it was answered.

Please - I want machine to have a higher water level to be sure & rinse better. ;-) Thanks for any help.

Most cycles use very low level of water.
Once I was able to fill the machine when trying different cycles, but don't remember which one.
My skin is very sensitive and residual detergent is left in clothes despite using very small amount, detergent for sensitive skin, and double rinse!
With the new machines, I'm not sure that all the soap gets removed, either. I always use the "extra rinse" cycle on my new LG machine and feel much better about it. No soap smell, no icky feel to the fabric.
