Works well but power cord too short
on September 6, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
Unfortunately it isn't a full size HomePod but unfortunately they don't make them so this is the next best thing.
It works well and I'd give it five stars IF it had a removable power cord. The power cord is insanely short and it is ridiculous because it can't be removed and replaced with a longer one. Very short sighted of Apple.

If you don't own it buy it but play the 1st 1st
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
Buy it. There is no question this is a perfect game refreshed to improve the original in every way.
Just don't even think of launching it without having played the first. They don't warn you but the intro completely ruins the first game if you've never played it. My only complain is they should warn you of this when firing it up.

Purple is perfect! Great controller!
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
A nearly perfect controller for the new PS5. There is nothing that feels better in my hands. The purple one appears to be a second gen of the controller that fixes some spring issues so I recommend this and a couple of the newer colors or make sure you check out any controller you purchase to be sure it is the redesigned one.
Purple color is fantastic!
Only wish they were cheaper.

Love it - great movie/great disc
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
What can I say, it is about as perfect a rendition of the first part of the DUNE novel as one can expect. I loved the movie and can't wait for the second part.
If you are a DUNE fan I believe you will enjoy this greatly and want to watch more than once. Sure can you pick it apart for some of the changes but no adaptation from a novel, particularly one as dense and great as this, will even satisfy every one.
Give it a try!

It~s just a power outlet~until you need to charge USB devices. This Best Buy essentials BE-HW36A218 3.6 A USB Charger Wall Outlet replaces a standard duplex outlet to add two USB ports. Not only can you plug in regular 3-prong AC devices, but you can also connect USB cables to charge phones, tablets and other devices without needing an extra power adapter. The outlets are tamper resistant with spring-loaded shutters that close the slots when you remove a plug, keeping your family safe. Installation is a breeze with your choice between push-in or screw terminal connections. Use either the included white wall plate or replace with your own decora-style cover to match your room. Backed by Best Buy, this power outlet is just what you need to simplify charging.

Junk - AC outlets require EXTREME force for plugs
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
I think I understand why these were being cleared out so cheaply. They are cheap. I bought it for the USB ports but once it was installed it was nearly impossible without a LOT of force to get the plugs into the regular AC outlets. The USB piece works perfectly but either this is defective or just junk. I can't recommend it. I'll probably replace it soon as I can't return it.

Slow and disappointing setup
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
Quick Take:
Pros:
— Crisp Text
— Accurate Colors
— Small Footprint
— Fantastic refillable ink system
— Easy physical setup
Cons:
— Problematic Setup via Mac
— Web Interface lacking wifi setup/modifications
— Jams/Double-Sided printing issues
— Problems waking from Sleep
— Ridiculously small and difficult to use display
— Slow printing
— Slow first page out time
— Paper tray is small and problematic when replacing paper
Explanations for above:
Pros:
— Crisp Text
Excellent print quality even at small point sizes for text. Very crisp and blacks are black.
— Accurate Colors
Colors appear to be accurate. I’ve not tried photo printing on photo paper but this is MUCH better than my previous HP Pagewide Pro I used.
— Small Footprint
Doesn’t take up a ton of space. It is about as small as it probably can be. The extension for manual feed is a little annoying as it sticks out.a bit.
— Fantastic refillable ink system
Love how the ink refill system works on this. Hoping the ink lasts as long as Canon and other reviews indicate.
— Easy physical setup
Taking it out of the box and setting it up physically was a piece of cake and everything is easy to get into the proper place.
Cons:
— Problematic Setup via Mac
This just would NOT setup properly using the installation software for and would not setup the wifi properly without using the display (see below). Considering every smart device I’ve purchased lately is nearly foolproof for setup from camera, AC units, pumps, etc. you’d think they could get this right on a $300 printer.
— Web Interface lacking wifi setup/modifications
The web interface once you log into it lacks features of other printers and most importantly won’t let you reset or changer the SSID and password for the wireless network. I had to change my SSID after setup and figured piece of cake, just go into the web interface and make the change. Not so fast, it doesn’t let you do that. For some inexplicable reason you can change any wifi setting in the web interface which makes no sense. It is even more egregious given the terrible display and gyrations you need to go through to reset the wifi SSID manually.
— Jams/Double-Sided printing issues
I haven’t had the printer that long but have had several issues with “jams” which are less physical jamming and more lack of pulling paper from the tray. When I fixed it from the control panel it had difficulty restarting the printing. This has happened twice. In additions several times I’ve tried printing double-sided and it was clearly set correctly at print time but it printed single sided. I have no explanation for it. Reprinting it printed properly with no changes. Hopefully this isn’t a pattern. I wasted a good deal of paper and ink and had to reprint everything. (It was a form with info on both sides so I couldn’t just live with it.)
— Problems waking from Sleep
Several times I had issues getting the printer to wake from sleep. I believe the default I discovered (via web interface) has the printer shutting off quickly and NOT set to wake properly from sleep or not detecting printing.
— Ridiculously small and difficult to use display
I knew going into his based on other reviews that no one liked this display but figured I could live with it. I suppose I have to (can’t return it now) but why on a $300 printer today this doesn’t have a bigger and more user friendly display and even go a step further and wish for touch display? The most basic kids toys now have touch screens. Would it have really drastically increased the price? Worse is that difficulties setting it up force me to enter lengthy passwords into the printer manually which is incredibly tedious and uses something like the multi-press entry used on old cell phones decades ago.
— Slow printing
I may be a bit jaded on this but wow is this slow. Perhaps it is because I had an HP Pagewide Pro previously which had a one pass ink printing system vs a head that goes back and forth but still it is like watching paint dry. Not sure I’ll even get used to it but speed is definitely not one of its features. Worse is combined with the next point just adds to the pain.
— Slow first page out time
This is incredibly frustrating if printer sleeps or is idle for a while, it seemingly goes through a minutes worth of back and forth head movement and noises and eventually starts printing. I do occasional printing so it is often I wait what seems an eternity for the page to print. Not sure if I’ll ever adjust to this.
— Paper tray is small and problematic when replacing paper
The paper tray really should hold more paper but the worst part is that slider that adjusts for letter size paper moves far too easily and frequently gets bumped into the wrong position putting paper into the tray. This is exacerbated by the fact that there is no hard stop on the other end of the paper tray that is inserted into the printer. It is very easy to have the paper askew. I find myself taking the tray out and tipping it to get the paper to be pushed toward the front of the tray where it hits the adjustable stop. This is just poor design and probably will cause additional paper jams.
Final Thoughts:
While I’m forced to like this printer because it is unexpectedly past the return date for me (got caught with the change from Elite status to normal so didn’t realize I didn’t have 45 days like usual) I can’t recommend it. Maybe I’ll change my mind as I use it further but I’m incredibility disappointed in its easy of use and setup and speed.
Coming from a much faster printer and not having had to use a current generation or even recent generation standard ink jet printer perhaps has me expecting too much. However, I expected a better and more seamless experience from Canon. I had a Canon in the past and it was stellar. I only wish I felt the same way about this one.

One Christmas in Camelot, the revels were interrupted by a hulking, emerald-skinned knight (Ralph Ineson), who dared anyone present to lay a blow on him... as long as he got to strike back a year later. The king's impetuous nephew Gawain (Dev Patel) met the challenge-and after the intruder improbably survived, faced a fateful journey to meet his end of the bargain. David Lowery's stylish, subversive take on the Arthurian tale co-stars Alicia Vikander, Joel Edgerton, Sean Harris. 130 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

On the fence on how good this really cleans
on November 9, 2021
Posted by: XenoChron
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not sure how much I like this unit without the agitator. Switched from Front Loader to make it easier to unload/load. Frequently stuff sits on top and doesn't appear to get wet or circulate so still concerns on if items getting washed properly if loaded. Unable to get it to attach to my wifi even with strong signal and other devices attach fine. I'd be hesitant to recommend this to others. I think you need an agitator or some better way to circulate the clothes to get good and clean. I'm stuck with it for now.
Getting different modes on this is a pain too and only way to save a setting is with app which, w/o wifi, I cannot do.

Finally. A robot vacuum you can rely on to get the job done. The Roomba j7 + robot vacuum packs 10x the power-lifting suction and comes with unique intelligence to avoid cords and pet waste. It even understands times when you~re home and seasons when more cleaning may be needed. Compared to the Roomba 600 series cleaning system.
 

I don't see that this has LIDAR in specs - is it on this unit?

Recharge two DualShock 4 devices at once with this HyperX ChargePlay Duo controller charging station. It connects to your controllers' EXT ports, and the three-level battery indicators let you easily see the current charging status. This HyperX ChargePlay Duo controller charging station has a weighted base and click-down docking mechanism for stable support.
 

Anyone have problems consistently charging a controller? I put controllers on and they are plugged in and charge symbol comes on in front of controller on base and then I pick up the controller and it isn't charged or worse is dead. Defective?

I've had Canon Pixma printers before and didn't need an app to print. My last one just died and the trade in program one isn't a megatank and is n backorder I can't wait that long. Can I just print as I've always done or is it necessary to have the app?

Need more info.. It supports AirPrint so you don't need an app for that and you an print from a Mac and presumably a PC without an app and probably a reasonably generic printer driver.

Does it work with MAC OS 12.4

It should. It works with 12.5 and I doubt seriously they'd cut off 12.4.

According to this: https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/products/details/printers/megatank-inkjet-printers/all-megatank-inkjet-printers/pixma-g6020#Z7_MQH8HIC0L88RB0AMD0F1Q42OR1

It does support it. Says:
For full compatibility macOS v10.12.1 or later is recommended.
