Nice and roomy

I must confess that with the virus lockdown I haven't had this out on the road yet, but I am stoked to have a garment bag back in my travel lineup. I hate dragging my hanging garments around in the plastic wrap from the cleaners when I travel and I always need the extra storage for the oddball items. I caught this as a deal of the day special and just had to have it. I have owned several cheaper ones that come with a set of luggage and came to depend on them. I opened this one up when I got it and checked out all the zippers and pockets and wheels and handle and it is nice. The zippers are smooth and it rolls easily and has a pretty nice storage hanger to fit over a door. The bag is solid and attractive and I really am glad to have it for when the lockdown is over and travel resumes.

Love good batteries

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am really impressed with pure lithium batteries. I have a couple of Blink outdoor cameras and they have been working hard for months with their lithium batteries. These are pricey of course, but I have major peace of mind knowing I have a dozen great batteries lying in a drawer waiting to take their turn powering my devices for really long periods of time. I must say I am prejudiced because I insist on having a trove of backups always at hand.

Tough Unit
on June 13, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I became a fan of ION with a couple of their products in our household. The big outdoor bluetooth speaker on wheels is a staple of our swimming pool area. It is loud and fairly easy to use. Their wireless phone charger/clock was pretty handy too. I got this unit for the extreme portability and the water resistant nature and the extra bands for when we camp out. I have tried it out by charging it and pairing with my phone to listen to streaming radio and such and it works just like you would expect. It paired quickly and is very portable and convenient. I was slightly disappointed with the volume capability since the larger speaker will blow your hair back, but I'm sure that inside a tent this would do fine. I think the USB port you can use to charge your phone while outdoors is always a great bonus to have handy. All in all I am pretty well pleased. I think it is a pretty nice package for all the options it has and seems to be durable and easy to use. I do recommend it though I would only buy it on sale or as a special purchase.

With the added ability to steam, brown, or saute, this Crock-Pot 8-quart express crock multi-cooker makes it easy to create one-pot meals.

Good cooker
on June 5, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this cooker even though we have a big crock pot because it is a pressure cooker and does browning as well. I really like the removable easy clean liner pot and a great bonus is the fact that there are tons of recipes online. These multi-cookers are very popular right now and people are happy to put tips and recipes out there for others. I have only tried one Tikki Masala chicken recipe so far, but my wife cooks a crock pot meal about every other week. My only minor caveat is the fairly enormous size.

Top-notch modem
on June 5, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this modem when I upgraded to a 1 gig connection from the Cable company. The unit the installer brought out was a DOCSIS 3.0 modem and was giving me pathetic speeds. I took the Arris modem back and they gave me the ten bucks a month credit to my account (win) and my speeds went up noticeably (win). When I called support to get things going I was reassured I did the right thing when all their support folks made glowing comments about Netgear. Their words "yeah Netgear is the best". I also have the RAX80 router and of course the modem and router get along famously. I am well satisfied so far.

Best brush
on May 15, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife and I have used these for years and they are the best. Actually, we tried the other round brush competitor and my wife likes those better. Not me. I have tried Colgate medium standard brushes and they are good, but Sonicare brushes are hands down the best of all. The other brand needs too darn much charging and just dies mid brush. Sonicare brushes give a little beep beep beep after brushing for at least a few days before they die completely.
I am sold on Sonicare and have bought them as gifts for our grown children.

Works pretty good

Verified Purchase:Yes
This unit excited me because I use an Omron device with the tube connecting the electronics to the sleeve an it works great, but I am not as convinced of the accuracy. The great thing is it is more convenient and portable and cool, but I quickly realized that the old unit is easy enough and I trust it more. I use this one at work, but I really do almost all my readings in the morning right after getting up. Good for what it is.

The Logitech Wireless Desktop MK710. Where comfort and productivity go hand-in-hand. This low-profile keyboard features Logitech Incurve keys, which are so comfortable you~d think they were custom-made to fit your fingers, and a cushioned palm rest. Up to three-year battery life for both keyboard and mouse practically eliminates the need to replace batteries.

Good keyboard
on May 15, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife was having issues with her passwords because she couldn't tell whether her caps lock key was on or off. This keyboard has the cool little display window that is definitive about the status of your various locks. It is also quiet (at least quieter than her old one) and that helps since our home office is us side by side in our recliners in the living room. I bought this for an early Mother's Day gift because it was pricy for a wireless keyboard with a caps lock indicator. She uses a trackball so the mouse is in a drawer being useless. The multi-device dongle came in handy though because it replaced her trackball dongle to free up a USB port. I have queried her several times on how she was liking her new keyboard and she has been quite pleased (and she is not shy about giving critique). I am happier with how much quieter her typing has become.

Cheap and awesome

Verified Purchase:Yes
So I got this headset for webex meetings while working from home. I didn't want to spend a ton but I wanted a couple of important features. This unit does it for me. It was a low price and had a visible mute LED and a rotating mouthpiece arm and was USB plug and play and was comfortable enough to wear for an hour or two without driving me crazy. I can stick this in my credenza and drag it out for meetings with no connection hassles and the sound is great. Mute/unmute is easy and I like that it has a red/blinking red LED. That way I know the state of mute with a positive cue (not just wondering if no LED meant mute or malfunctioning LED). I wouldn't want to wear these for 8 hours a day because they aren't as comfy as my three hundred and fifty dollar noise cancelling Sony headphones, but thank God working from home doesn't require that from me. Logitech has dominated my work from home environment with keyboard, trackball and now headset too. Good job and thanks Logitech!

Excellent routing
on May 15, 2020
Posted by: WhitehouseWillie
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is my third router from Netgear and they just keep getting better. I used to rock the LinkSys and it was okay, but once I tried Netgear I haven't looked back. And by the way, the last modem still works great and I feel bad that it is in a box not helping anyone, but since my wife and I are both working from home and are using iPhone 11s (which use Wi-Fi 6) I just had to get this unit. The best thing was I just swapped them out and the AX8 gathered up all twenty-six network nodes and gave them their best setting (2.4 or 5 gig) and I was up and going. I did have a major scare though when it wouldn't give me "live views" of my Blink wireless cameras. It found them and assigned them, but would NOT give me a live view. I went online and some kind person said they had something similar happen and solved it with a modem/router reboot. Voila! I had an even better connection to my camera system. Whew! I thought maybe the more powerful wi-fi 6 had less range, but it is kicking. I had one other motivation for this purchase and that was to get Alexa to work in the backyard by the pool. Other reviews touted the coverage of this unit and I can't wait to try it out. My Netgear 2400 didn't stay connected well enough to make it work for us last summer. Anyway the other reviewers gave some great pics that inspired me to completely rework my cable management when I installed this baby and that was a big fringe benefit. With this cool looking unit out in the open it makes having an on/off button for the LEDs invaluable. I love the light show, but not when I am trying to sleep. Very thoughtful touches and great performance from a sleek unit. Thanks Netgear!

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.

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.

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.
