DIDN'T WORK
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: AKTreview
Verified Purchase:Yes
It was a joke. Most probably a test exercise from BBY. They sent me a code that didn't work. The instructions were completely wrong. Online support was helpless to resolve the issue. And directed me to a support line.
I got it for free, and most of the movies were already in my collection, that's why I didn't like to spend any extra time and reach out for resolution.
It may be a great value for those who got it working.

GREAT BUY!!! IT IS A STEAL :)

This KIT is a steal. People who are complaining, didn't understand the product.
SPOILER for those who didn't read :) THIS KIT DOES NOT COME WITH A $100 CODE. IT COMES WITH FOUR $25 CODES.
so in order to get the full value out from it, I need to place 4 orders with PSA. This is not a big deal for any PSA fan. Because we are sending cards for certification all the time.
I used one promo code and it worked as expected. That's why there's no reason to complain, when this stuff is actually IMO free.

It may be good for some casual rinsing work but oveonot much useful. I used it once and regretted buying it. Pay few more bucks and other model comes with wheel, longer hose and cable management.

Great Cooktop
on October 2, 2023
Posted by: AKTreview
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was picking up lots of options before this one. Here is my reasoning for this one.
1. So far my experience with Samsung products is good.
2. It is having some smart features, which not too many (can just check if burner is on/off), but is highly good when in need.
3. High BTU for the center burner. It got 22k BTU, which I found highest for its price compare to other cooktops.
4. Style. I needed something more durable, which is Stainless steel (not glass, and not colored).
This Cooktop, is really great. I hope it to last so that I don't have to go back again.

Perfect Oven

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this one for one of the best prices of the year. It is an excellent choice.
My only complaint is that it does not look as modern as it shows itself in the pictures/review videos. It looks very odd in any kitchen.
I didn't buy it for its main feature which is rotisserie chicken, so cannot comment on that.
Bake, airfry, toast, pizza all wonderful, compare to my previous one (Breville).

Free up space above your cooktop with the new beautifully designed Smart SLIM Microwave. This combination microwave with ventilation hood fits into the same space as an under-the-cabinet hood, but despite its slim size it has a sizeable 1.1 cu ft capacity. The SLIM Microwave packs in the powerful performance you need with all the technology that you love in a slim, space efficient size.

Great! my family liked it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Install - super easy.
Design - Modern.
Features - all good, and smart.
Vent - Best in class.
Noise level - super low comparatively.
Samsung support - so far close to none.
This style is not for everyone. I am yet to find a place where I can easily get spare parts, basically filters for replacement. Ideally, there's app, and it should direct me to the Samsung or buyer's market for it. But there's no such integration so far.
Overall I am happy with purchase. It looks nice, doesn't feel cheap from any angle.
I will update the review if there's any problem with it, hopefully that will not happen.

not that great anymore.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Hold on all you nostalgic fans.
This movie is too bad with today's standard. The main character is shown as flirt, stalks women and will not pass at all with today's movie standards. graphics look bad, nothing special about this movie.
Most people complained about Ghostbusters when it came in 2016, with all women cast. In my opinion that movie doesn't as much at as much it was given to it. I am sure these fans were all kids when the GB first came out and were amazed with its tech. With such pathetic dialogue I find it difficult to watch with kids not sure how come it passed as a PG.
Don't get mad on me, but this movie is only good for the amazing ghostbuster song.

A fun movie, but problem is that so many movies are trying to copy the same structure (ET). Be it IT, Stranger Things, and many more, all are trying to get money out of retro nostalgic theme.
It is good one time watch. I bought it for the steel-book, and that's the the best thing about it.

Vacuuming that fits seamlessly into your life. The i7+ learns your home and navigates to where the messes are, right when they happen~so you can effortlessly keep your floors clean. Just say to Google Assistant or Alexa voice assistant, ~Tell Roomba to clean under the kitchen table~ and consider it done. After each cleaning, the i7+ empties itself into Dirt Disposal bags that hold up to 60 days of debris so you can forget about vacuuming for months. Personalized cleaning recommendations and seasonal suggestions help keep floors clean year-round, and 10x the Power-Lifting suction* paired with self-emptying convenience help make life a whole lot easier.

I rate it two because I can't understand what IRobot engineers are doing for last 10 years.
This machine keep on banging everywhere. get stuck all the time. I am fine if it doesn't clean much, but don't get lost please. Out of 3 times I tried, found it stuck in loop.
J7 may be better, but can't trust the company if they can create a consistent product. If I am in a room, that's clean with no obstacles, I will better use my dyson over this garbage.

Everything I wanted!
By Luis from Los Angeles
I am super happy with this purchase. For quite a while I was looking for a TV that not only had great picture quality but also kept things simple for me. I used to have to plug external devices into the soundbar first in order to get Dolby atmos and more. Now I can use the TV apps that are installed on the TV like Netflix, vudu and more and it will play Dolby atmos on my hw-950 due to it having HDMI 2.1 connection. 1 chord- that's it!!! I also have an xbox one x that I can plug straight to the TV and it lit up all the green check marks when I went to 4k details. The upscaling is just amazing for this TV! I'm so happy I got this over the LG C8 or the C9 which would have been the same price because the picture quality is as good but no burn ins.

Not sure what you mean
April 17, 2019
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Glad you love your new TV.
But still, I have no idea if you reviewed the same tv or not. First of all, this Samsung TV is 8K so not a 4k, so if you could add little bit more on your review that will really be helpful. Second, the price difference between LG C8/C9 and this TV is almost double. The C8 and C9 are available for nearly 3k and this one is 7k. It will not be compare it to those starting level OLED TVs. BTW for the information of you and all, the apps you mentioned are available on all the smart tvs, even 500$ roku tv will be having it. So kindly update your review with real spec so that it can be very helpful for the users who would like to choose this one over a 4k tv.

Best headphones on the market*
By EkkoNexus
So I had the XM3s and I loved those headphones. Used them every day while I was on the computer. Only reason why I upgraded was because I had the protection plan, so doing a swap was no problem. Got these boys on and the sound is great, the new proximity sensor is an amazing add, the ANC is the best, Bluetooth 5.0 is a must nowadays, connecting to two devices is so handy, the Type-C charging is top tier, and having access to either Google Assistant or Alexa is beyond convenient. The reason why there's an asterisk in my title is because of comfort. Because of my weirdly shaped head and ears, these headphones are not comfortable. And I only had them on for the evening. I can't see myself using these guys from the morning until three in the morning. No way. It's a shame, too. I was extremely excited to own these but alas, they are not meant for me. Comfort aside, they're still stellar headphones. Nothing beats the ANC

Hi Thanks for your review... Did you felt same discomfort with XM3 too? if not, it is wonder that why these will be an issue when everyone suggested that there are no design changes between XM3 to XM4.

A little confused about “upscaling”, streaming, 4k Ultra HD, etc… I’m looking for a Blu Ray player that plays 4K Blu-ray Discs. I have a 4k Blu-ray movie that will not play on a regular DVD player. Will this player play it? Can you explain upscaling etc.

I understand your question. This one cannot play 4k UHD Disc. It can play normal Full HD Bluray Disc and try to upscale it to 4k.
For the 4K disc player, minimum I suggest you need to go to DP-UB820-K (Panasonic 4k Disc Player), there's few from Sony too but if you look at forum Panasonic seems to have less issues. Or you go Xbox Series X (which I use), or maybe latest Playstation 5 with Disc Player (not the digital edition).

Imagine having the magic of a movie theater right in your home and feeling totally immersed in every scene. With the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 with Dolby Atmos, you can. Custom-engineered upfiring dipole speakers work with advanced Bose technologies to make it seem like your room is filled with sound from every direction. Even overhead. It~s like you can almost feel the rain coming down during your favorite movie. For content that isn~t encoded in Dolby Atmos, proprietary TrueSpace spatial processing intelligently analyzes signals other than Dolby Atmos, like stereo or 5.1 surround sound system, and upmixes them to create an immersive 7-channel speaker wireless surround sound experience with an impressive sense of height in the soundscape. The result is enveloping sound with convincing realism no matter what you watch with this TV soundbar. But it~s not just the sound quality that you~ll notice with this Dolby Atmos soundbar. Material quality. Construction. Finishes. Controls. Every detail was obsessed over to produce a Bose premium soundbar that looks as beautiful as it sounds. And with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant built in, you can create a connected home theater system. This Bluetooth soundbar helps you control all your entertainment, manage your day, and get information ~ using just your voice.
 

Can you get pure Dolby Atmos thru ARC? I can't seem to get it thru ARC, I doubt optical would have that capability, any ideas?

ARC does not support Atmos.

I will cancel my bose 900 order. I can only enjoy Atmos with a receiver set. With Bose deciding to have a receiver-less model, there's no way I can connect my devices to bose and get 4k output to my tv. what a bummer :(

We'll deliver, install and make sure your new washing machine is working. We'll level your washer, plug it in and attach the hoses. Additional charges may apply if not up to local codes or requirements.
 

How do you order old washer removal when ordering online?

I just finished, it is not always free. This service is haul away service, we can always ask or add it to whenever we buy a new one. Nearly every retailer offers it along with delivery/installation. I prefer it for large appliance, because I will never be able to professionally take care of my old appliance.
