Great watch! So-so battery.
on November 4, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
I traded up to the Pixel Watch from a Fitbit Versa 2. I expected a great user experience and that's what I'm getting — except for needing to charge it every day. I've decreased the power usage in all the recommended ways, but still, if I don't charge it once a day it won't make it through the next. That shouldn't be.

Lots of features I'm still learning to use
on September 17, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this mouse to replace a Logitech Ergo trackball. I'd heard good things about it from graphic designers and, even though I write and don't do much design, I thought I'd try it. I'm still learning how to set it up and use it the best way for me, but so far it's great.

Good choice for a Brother printer
on July 23, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
This cartridge is for my father's printer. He doesn't print as much as he might, so the standard-yield is plenty. Easy to install, trouble-free performance.

Big improvement over the Mini.
on July 18, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to replace one of the original Google Home Minis. That was working fine, but I wanted better audio quality. This speaker certainly has excellent sound. It takes up some counter space (the Mini was on the wall), but it's worth it.

A great solution for our non-typical situation
on July 18, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the second add-on point I've purchased to go with the Nest WiFi system, which came with two points. Our wifi has to serve both our house and the guest house in the backyard. The guest house was getting a weak signal until I added the fourth, which increased the signal strength substantially. The mesh wifi system is dependable and rarely has a problem.

Excellent fit for the Jitterbug Smart2
on June 17, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a Jitterbug Smart2, it's likely in the hands of a senior. (And it's an excellent choice for that; highly recommended.) Seniors seem to be more careful with their tech -- maybe because they're a bit afraid of it -- so maybe you don't need this. But if you decide you do, it has an excellent fit, it's easy to install and it may give your senior a little more confidence handling their phone.

A good, cheaper alternative
on June 17, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm always surprised by the cost of cables, so this lesser-named brand appealed to me. Still overpriced, IMO, but not as much as bigger-name brands, and the quality is good.

Good case, and nothing else
on June 3, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
Is it a good case? Yes. Is it a wallet case? No. Credit cards, driver's license, anything that size stick up past the hinge of the folded phone. That's not the case's fault; just the size of the phone. I had hoped it would be like using the wallet case I had with the Pixel 3 that this phone replaced. It's not. So I bought a wallet, and use this just as a case. First world problem ...

Doesn't offer everything; has everything I need
on May 27, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wanted a docking station for my personal Chromebook similar to my work-provided Mac+Thunderbolt 3 dock. The HyperDrive hub isn't quite that elaborate, but that's OK. It does what I need it to: connects my Chromebook to two external monitors and allows for charging. The USB 2.0 ports are waste of space so far. Who knows? I might use them at some point. But this hub was a good value whether I do or not.

Good value in a Bluetooth mouse
on May 1, 2022
Posted by: Rathfulman
Verified Purchase:Yes
I needed a mouse to use with my new Chromebook. I didn't want to mess with another dongle, so the Bluetooth connection was the right choice. It doesn't fit my hand as neatly as other Logitech mice, but it's made to be compact, and I'm adjusting.

Is the dongle a "unifying receiver?

A note on the box says, "Not compatible with Logitech Unifying USB Receiver technology." So it's a standard dongle. But I connected mine with Bluetooth anyway.

This Bluetooth-enabled Logitech slim wireless keyboard includes an auto-sleep feature that is activated when you're not typing to ensure long battery life.

The keys are a standard size, but they're close together and there's no wasted space between them, so the full keyboard seems more compact than a traditional desktop keyboard. It's just under 15".

Heat up meals quickly with this 1.6 cu. ft. Panasonic Cyclonic Wave microwave oven. The power levels adjust automatically to ensure consistency, and the patented inverter technology enhances precision to prevent hot spots or uneven defrosting. This Panasonic Cyclonic Wave microwave oven has an interactive menu screen for customized cooking every time.
 

Is the plug on model NN-SN77HS straight or angled? It is a deep model and if the plug is straight it makes it sit deeper on the counter. If not angled, do any other inverter models have an angled plug?

It's straight, and protrudes about 2.25" from the wall. I don't know about other models.

Maintain the high-quality output of your monochrome laser printer with this Brother high-yield toner cartridge. It lets you produce up to 3,000 pages of consistently sharp, crisp prints, providing lasting supply for bulk printing. This Brother high-yield toner cartridge is compatible with select compact, multifunction and all-in-one laser printer models.
 

Does this print cartridge dry out or go bad if you don't use it quickly enough...or good for a long time? I am avoiding ink jet because unused cartridges go bad in printer.

I've used laser printers for a long time and I've never had a toner cartridge dry out. The toner is a powder so it's dry anyway. I haven't had an ink jet printer in years, but family members have, and you're right, the cartridges dry out or the nozzles get gummed up with age. And they're ridiculously expensive. Laser is the way to go.
