Worth it

Verified Purchase:Yes
The best Apple watch I have owned. By far. The battery life extension is the best part. The slightly larger size is better for me. The options of the buttons is better and more convenient as well. I especially like the action button that allows me to kick off my workouts by pushing a button and getting started immediately. I don't want to delve into the deep workings of my watch; for me I just want to have the selections that interest me "at the top of the stack" so I can touch and go. I am not thrilled with the look of the sport band. The function of the band is perfectly acceptable, but the look is dull and quickly worn-looking. The problem with that is that the new ones are wayyyyy too expensive. Even with that small caveat, this device has been well worth it for me. I really like the sleep tracking that my wife and I compare stats on all the time.

LG NeoChef brings a new sensibility to countertop microwave design. The look is minimal and elegant, one you~ll be proud to showcase in your kitchen. The performance is impressive, with the power and precision of the LG Smart Inverter combined with the ease of Sensor Cooking. It senses optimal temperatures and automatically turns off the microwave, eliminating the guesswork. Generous capacity and the splatter-resistant EasyClean interior elevate cooking and cleaning convenience to a new level.

Great but flawed

This microwave cooks great and has the best turntable ever. It has solid functions and looks good too. Sensor cooking was my go to for two reasons, one good and one bad. The good was that it cooked things easily and well and didn't take much though. The bad reason was that there is no number keypad to key in numbers. I have to admit that I never spent enough effort to master this system and always wished for a number pad. Soooo, we were in Sam's Club one day and I just bought a new 1250 watt monster that has all the numbers and other buttons that make more sense to me. I have the LG in storage and will gift it to one of the kids or grandkids so they can master the odd system.

Works very well

Verified Purchase:Yes
This unit was easy to install and I like the fact that it is connected to continuous power. I have three other cameras on the system and this one does 90 percent of the recording because it catches the passing cars. It looks nice enough and works just like it should. I have tested the audio interface on the grandkids, but that isn't a feature that I really use. I am very happy with how easy setup was and how seamlessly it integrated into my existing networked system.

Easy to attach

This magnetic charger works fine as a quick charger for my wife in our Rav4, but there is a paradigm issue. All users pretty much use a plastic case for protection and the connection is just too tenuous with that layer of plastic in the way. Without the case the connection is very solid. Even so, the advantage of not having to see my wife brutally ramming the lightning connection in to start charging makes me pretty happy.

I have wanted an extra camera for my three camera setup for a while. Found this on sale and it was super easy to scan the code and add it to the system. Had my grandson help me screw the mount to a big pine tree and even twenty feet from the house it reads on the network just fine. Easy peasy. These cameras make home security easy and essentially maintenance free.

Great device

I already had a 3000 series Norelco trimmer but I wanted this one too, and besides they aren’t very expensive! I’m not disappointed at all, even though several of the guards are for some other product. How does that happen? But like I said, I already had a full set from the 3k series so I just bought an inexpensive zippered case online and combined all the best accessories. This trimmer has an all metal feel and is more substantial than its cousin and is heavier and quieter. All Norelco trimmers apparently have great battery life and just work like they are supposed to. I am done trying other brand trimmers/shavers because nothing else has come close. I highly recommend this trimmer and have already bought one for my very hirsute son.

Trade up for the Trimmer
on July 7, 2023
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a good trimmer, don't get me wrong, but I would get the Norelco Trimmer 5000 or 7000 series instead. The Norelco trimmers are the best I have ever found for trimming all my facial hair. The regular trimmers have the guards and specialty tools for trimming nose/ear hair which I have in abundance, but they handle all other trimming too. This kit is just redundant to a regular trimmer and the specialty tools don't bring enough value to make two sets worth it. Do yourself a favor though and make sure to get a set with all the attachments and AT LEAST a bag for storing them all in. I hang the bag near our bathroom vanity and everything I need for trimming eyebrows, nose/ear hair and shaping up my sideburns and goatee are all right there at hand. So if you start with this kit, don't stop there; trade it in for the full trimmer kit at some point. You won't be disappointed IMHO.

I have been testing this cookware for several months now, at least the medium and large skillets. I have used them extensively and they have performed beautifully. As a consequence I saw this set from Best Buy as a deal of the day option and decided immediately to clear out all my non-Ninja cookware to my daughter and replace it all with these. They are all great looking and work just like they should. I think I will find the next larger sauce pan to complete my set to suit me and I will be done. I have tried at least eight different cookware brands, including the trendy type you can use a mixer in and beat with a hammer, and this line of Ninja cookware is the end of my search. I recommend these.

Very useful device

Excellent tool that performs like it says it will. It is very conveniently shaped for all sorts of holding angles and also quite reliable to use. Just one button to start it up and then then apply as needed. I have yet to go through the app because I have three injured limbs and have to be judicious in application to now. I really am glad that it has various attachments that allows for some variety in coverage and intensity. I am seeing an orthopedic surgeon and several therapists right now and I query them all about their opinions and advice on the theragun and so far they all give personal testimonies because they use them too. That is the best recommendation for me because these are some talented and competent folks.

Bright, colorful and reactive

I got this for my granddaughter to go with a cheaper set of lights she had placed in her room. She arranged these lights so as to radiate out from her headboard and they look great. She is fascinated with the color options and especially the "reactive" options that respond to her voice. They were quite the hit and she is very pleased. Everything was supplied with the order and everything worked as advertised. The remote, the LEDs and the adhesive were good to go.

The CM1000 Ultra-High Speed Cable Modem, with speeds up to 1Gbps and DOCSIS 3.1 is 10X faster than DOCSIS 3.0 devices. It's backward compatible with DOCSIS 3.0 and ready for future service plan upgrades for XFINITY from Comcast, Cox, and Spectrum. A Gigabit Ethernet port provides faster access and downloads.
 

If I buy this modem, do I need to buy the router to use the internet?

Yes. There are other devices that are combined modem/router, but this is only a modem and will not service multiple devices. You could plug one computer into this modem with a cord, but no wi-fi and no other devices.

Immerse yourself in stunning game environments with this iBUYPOWER desktop computer. The NVIDIA GeForce RXT 2070 graphics card has 8GB of dedicated video memory for cinematic visuals at high frame rates, and the 1TB SSD ensures sufficient speed and storage. This iBUYPOWER desktop computer has an Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB of RAM for optimal performance.
 

My new pc the BB952 came with 2 antennas and I don’t know where to put it .

These screw onto the card that sticks out of the back of the computer (it is a wireless device that plugs into the motherboard inside) to allow you to connect to your wireless network more easily. These are the wireless network antennas and they just screw in and rotate to the optimum position to receive a signal.

How do you change the lights on the computer?

Go to the ASRock Utility on the Start Menu and select the ASRRGBLED option and it will open a utility that allows you lots of options.

I bought this computer on Christmas and I tried to change the lighting on it using the application, but instead of changing the color it says," Smart lighting not detected." If anyone knows a way to fix this that would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, that is the wrong utility. The MSI Lighting doesn't work. Use the ASRock~ASRRGBLED Utility from your Start Menu and you will be more pleased.

does this model have a way to change lighting?

Yes, it does. The Techs at Best Buy said they used to come with a remote control for lighting, but that wasn't the way it was with mine. Go to the Programs button on your Start Menu and select the ASRock Utility option and open the ASRRGBLED utility and voila! you will be able to select different lighting options. I set mine to cycle through the colors slowly and have liked the effect pretty much. Hope you find this before you give up.
