Not as good as my previous one
on December 20, 2019
Posted by: maclover
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had an Incase shell for my 2011 Mac which was much better. It had good Gripper feet on the bottom that kept the MacBook from sliding around on my lap tray and it just wasn't as slick to hold onto. Also, the new design does not allow for a USB-c "Hub" to be plugged in. You have to remove the bottom shell because the side cutout is not long enough for the "Hub". It will serve the purpose as I couldn't find a better one for now.

Gotta have an adapter

I didn't know until I was in the process of purchasing the MacBook that I needed an adapter in order to use anything that requires USB. It does come loose if moved around while using it, but it serves the purpose

I'm a MacBook fan
on December 20, 2019
Posted by: maclover
Verified Purchase:Yes
I previously owned a MacBook Pro for 8 years. I wasn't having any problem with it except it was running a little slow, but I thought it was time to replace it. All of my Word files and Photos transferred to my new Mac and I'm back in business. My only complaint is that it came with a "Free year of Apple TV". What I didn't know was that there was a stipulation that you upgrade the Mac operating system to Catalina. Since Catalina does not work with 32 bit apps, plus multiple tech people telling me of the problems with Catalina, I chose to stay with the previous version, Mojave. So, I didn't get the free year that was advertised. That was my only disappointment.

Academy Award winner George C Scott gives a powerful performance as Ebenezer Scrooge in this truly heartwarming telling of Charles Dickens' beloved drama. At first, miserable, greedy old Scrooge can't tolerate the revelry of Christmas, much less comprehend it's meaning. But visits from his former business partner's ghost and three cautionary Specter's from the past, present and future force the man to soul-search. Grappling with his own losses, Scrooge recognizes the repercussions of heartlessness in this classic, timeless story that also stars Susannah York and David Warner. Directed by Clive Donner. Starring George C Scott, Edward Woodward, Susannah York, Anthony Walters, David Warner.

I have been wanting something to pair with my iPhone so I can play Pandora or some sports talk apps I have. Right out of the box, I turned it on and it immediately paired with my iPhone. It also acts as a Siri. Great speaker!

What is the noise level in decibels? Does is come with an attachable drain hose for defrosting?

I never hear the freezer running so it's very quiet. Does not come with a drain hose. My wife defrosts by un plugging the freezer, using hair dryer to dislodge the frost and ice, and scooping it out. She then uses towels to soak up any remaining water. It takes all of 15 minutes to defrost our freezer after we empty it and unplug it. No need for the drain to be used in my opinion.

What temperature range can this unit be set to?

I set mine to run slightly below zero. It is mid range on the dial and could be set lower.

Why does Best Buy site list this as "Unavailable Nearby"? Is this an inventory issue, or is the model not in production or discontinued? I ask because the size, features and price best match my needs. Can you help? Thanks.

We ordered one on December 30. It had been previously out of stock, but showed up one day so I ordered it. It was supposed to be delivered late January, but was back ordered. It was finally delivered in early February. I would suggest checking every day and you might get lucky like I did. I even got free shipping to home. Be patient and persistent and you'll eventually get your freezer.

Will this fit the MacBook Pro model:MD101LL/A8?

It will fit, but does not have a large enough side cutout for a usb-c adapter "hub".
