This is a nice addition, because usually the hand held insta read kitchen cooking thermamothers are so tiny with the numbers, you can not read them. Not true here ..i can actually SEE the numbers easily and it is no struggle at all.
Finally a bolder larger lcd screen reading.

Like the exta spin cycle to get more juice

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is fairly decent for a citrus juicer (I like my home made lemonades, limeades and juice other citrus too. I must point out, read the directions, for not all parts are dishwasher safe. But then again, given the ok juice collection glass, it fits the purpose for my home. Be aware you will do quite some work to get pulp out of the pulp basket (that lip there makes it hard, and harder if your hands have arthritis). I end up using gently a bottle brush to get the pulp removed. After all, you don't want your dishwasher filter clogged

Works for my kitchen/food prep needs
on September 17, 2021
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
You'd be surprised at just how much use you can obtain from having a small kitchen scale in not just meal prep, but also flash freezing into portions, measuring for canning recipes, etc.
It seems that I use them so much, and especially at canning time, that I end up knocking off the counter (Trust me, canning takes up a lot of counter space) my kitchen scale and it breaks.
With that said, this is an economical replacement choice (I could care less about some of its functions, I just needed a flatter scale that I can zero out the weight of the container I am using to accurately measure the ingredient weight).

Needless to say, it works. Just keep one handy for all your kitchen needs.

Great addition to my kitchen
on January 1, 2021
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've had the first little ninja device ( and it is still going strong after constant use thru the years) and this is my upgrade treat to myself this year. I use it for a lot of purposes beyond smoothies, sauces, soups, puree ingredients, and do much more. Plus quite a bit of the device parts and be placed in the dishwasher to clean and sanitize between uses, and that relieves me of the time spent on already damaged joints (I don't have to stand at sink to wash by hand like we did with old devices).

Good tool for anyone who is driving.
on October 23, 2020
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is small, compact, fits easily behind the front rear view mirror, and given what is happening nowadays, I'd rather have a running video of what is in front and behind me while I am driving (especially since I'm a disabled Driver too), just for safety sake. Easy to put into the vehicle and then it feeds off one of the Power Plugs in your vehicle (you have a long enough feed cord to be able to route that cord around the top, down the side, and then to the power plug so you don't have any hanging wires at all).

Economical replacements for Tile Device Batteries
on October 2, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
I do use the tile devices (needless to say, some family members just won't put things back where they found them), and always need a few spares of this battery on hand. I find they last about as long as the other brand, so for me this fits a need.

Works well with Note20Ultra
on October 2, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bottom line, I don't use the Cloud (prefer my documents, images, etc be off line and not compromised), so this is the MicroSD card I was looking for to hold my home's Pantry Listings, shopping lists, recipes, my images, etc that I need as I go about my day. With being able to swap these in and out (like for example, if I am going to a medical appointment and need a track of my health status), this is handy as well to have a spare. All in all, it works well and hasn't failed me yet (so I consider this to be effective for my purposes).

WAY TOO LOW!!!
on August 7, 2020
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
Seriously, I needed to replace my over 17 yr old washer (it was not repairable anymore) and ordered a Samsung Front Loader as a Replacement. I know that the items have a long lead time now (I ordered quickly after the breakdown, but it was still over a month to get this delivered).
One thing I am putting also on Samsung's site, is that this is WAY TOO SHORT for the purposes of a full size laundry and doesn't lift the door opening to the drum to a level that is accessible for those with disabilities (Whether you are using a wheelchair or even walkers/crutches). It only lifts the door to a total of 15 inches above the ground level (and the drum depth is lower than that too).
This in fact, even with child locks, makes it easy to have a child crawl into the opening, and given that elders are now looking to purchase these new front loaders that are way too low, it makes it difficult for those with arthritis or fused spines, or even taller than about 5 ft tall to access everything inside the drum after the wash.
Solution (which is not really a great one) is to purchase one of those extender grab bars and use it to pinch and grab the items out of the washer once the cycle is complete. YES, I have one of these now dedicated to my laundry room (since I can't afford to renovate the laundry area to build in its place a more accessible step up to mount the washer upon).
Bottom line, if you are taller than 5 ft tall (plus minus a couple inches), these new devices are just too SHORT to be comfortable to use.

Are the filters washable
Although I looked it up (and it is said it can be lightly washed/vacuumed off, you can shake out the filter too), I wouldn't recommend actually washing the filter given what I saw of the construction. Sure it is sturdy enough, but looking at the inside of the filter, I'd say it is far better to vacuum/shake out the surface and replace every so often than to warp the filter by deeper washing and potentially ruining the hepa component (or unit itself).

Can the ionizer be turned on and off so that particular feature is just on when people aren't at home? Can this be done both on the unit itself and remotely via the app?
YES! I have actually done this via the app (while I was at Physical Therapy), and had it run when I was out of the house. I was able to successfully turn it on, set the fan speed and time limits.
(I haven't done it at the unit ltself -- but you can turn on the unit before you leave without using the app and set the fan speed too. It's just easier for me to use remote app control).

How much are the filter replacements and where would I buy them from?
It uses the MAF-01 Filter for the Ibuki (and by using that filter model number, you can ask for it as Best Buy or look it up on Amazon or other websites to see if they have that filter for sale.
The prices vary depending on seller. I'd make sure to check the site reviews on each seller to see what works out best.

Easily adhere the Sticker to remotes, bikes, and headphones ~ no additional accessories required. Find what you've Tiled by ringing the device or viewing its last location on your phone. Or, set up your Tile to work as an SOS button, and discreetly send an alert to your Life360 Circle in unsafe situations.
Can it track people?
Short answer .. sort of.
I do put these in specific items or bags to be able to know where things are. (Even put in purse, wallet, or into inside of backpack so you can find where to start. Also can put in fold of jacket and sew shut)
This wont be good to stick on a person and its not going to help when your perosn is separated from your bag or device. Its also got lag and may not be able to update locations easily on big cities either.

Samsung~s 25 cu. ft. large capacity 4-Door French Door refrigerator is beautifully designed, with SpaceMax~ Technology, EZ-Open Handle~ and a fingerprint resistant finish that withstands everyday smudges.
Can you lock the smart divider in the flex drawer?
Not really. Although you can adjust it quite easily (for example, I have moved the divider to form 4 sections - one for wines, one for bottled water, one for sodas, and a fourth for such as the protein drinks (or anything else - like cheeses). IT is the way I stack/locate the items in the drawer that keeps the divider in place.

Download the free Tile by Life360 app and start finding. Tile by Life360 requires installation of the Tile by Life360 App on iOS or Android, registration for a Tile by Life360 account and acceptance of Tile by Life360~s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service (available at Tile by Life360.com). Payment required to access additional Premium services.
if I left my keys at the mall and got home like 60 miles away would the tile locator work?
Not quite sure how to answer this, since I just checked on my tractor which is in for maintenance and could see where it is (tractor repair) but it also notes out of range.
Best way to answer this is that if you have tile premium, and set up tile to give you notifications when you start getting out of range, you have time to get back there and retrieve your missing item. (Less than 60 miles for sure).
So check your settings, call where you think they are and check lost and found there.

Bottom line, it has a USB connection built in and yes, it can be used with any Windows Device (and even the Mac Devices nowadays too).
I'll caution you here about leaving any serial numbers anywhere -- just tell us it's an HP computer, with what ports available built in. (I used this device to read some of my old DVDs that I backed up my photos on to download them onto my newest backup hard drive).

How far can the pathlight be from the ring bridge to work?
I have the bridge about mid-house, it's wireless. Now with that said, I know from my rural home, I can't really extend these too far from the house (about 10-20 feet or so), and also it is extended from edge to edge of the front of the house for lighting of patio and garage areas. I wasn't able to get them to work much further than that (and given I do live rurally, my DRIVE is a lot longer than what is shown in Ring's promotional photos)
