Big & Sturdy, durability and safety concerns
on May 26, 2026
Posted by: cogito
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for the biggest round trampoline with the netting outside the springs. Was kind of weary of the random brand (also under goplus and costway) but figured worth a shot for the price.
Pros:
-Large usable jump area.
-Netting doesn't concave
-Legs and metal base feels solid, not cheap thin metal
Cons:
-The pad over the springs is held on by elastic bands. Had this for 2 weeks and probably almost half are broken. Loose pad and exposed springs now.
-The outside frame is completely inside the netting/play area. I thought I wanted this, but with a janky pad its either fully exposed or covered by the thickness of a blanket. *I can easily see my kids smacking their head off of this.
-The pictures show this pad as a thick solid squared shape. Not even remotely close to what it is
-You can literally fall through the netting. My kids have already fell off the edge and get wedged between the outside frame and the bottom of the netting. The straps connecting the bottom of the net to under side of springs are spaced out too far, leaving 4-5ft sections wide open
-the net poles are secured at the bpttom, bend outwards and up. I see very little force needed to bend these outwards and breaking them
-hardware is junk. 2 of the net pole screws nuts stripped before even tightening much. they came with one extra
-not hard to put together but the instructions are as vague as possible. Low quality almost scanned looking black and white sketches of parts and connections
Overall: I would not recommend this trampoline. Dont trade off safety for an extra foot net space

So much better than cheaper Toshiba
on August 30, 2025
Posted by: cogito
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wanted a smaller tv for my kids xbox. The 27" monitor i had setup didnt have sound and was pretty old. I bought the Toshiba full hd tv for under $100 and it was just awful. It was slow and had terrible visuals. The worst backlighting and blooming ive seen. You could see squares transitioning from blacks to greys to lighter colors. Returned it and got this Hisense and while it doesnt knock your socks off its completely acceptable for a $130 tv

Happy with this purchase

I bought a $40 netgear extender and it really didnt make my upstairs TVs and consoles have a faster or stronger signal. I would say slightly to negligible.
I bought this one and it increased or signal strength and speeds drastically. Intended on running an ethernet up to this unit but honestly it works good enough and to me the possible gains are not worth the work

I'd go a bit more expensive

Verified Purchase:Yes
Wanted to better the signal for upstairs TVs and game consoles. Router is literally right down the stairs pretty unobstructed. Did speed tests and it really didnt help much at all. I bought an $80 Netgear extender and it works as I hoped.
You'll think its cheap, why not? Just get a more expensive one

Not much to say.. charges as it should, small profile, nice display. Only thing I would prefer is the cords being attached to the unit like another one I have.

The most important tool in your collection is your hands, and to make sure they continue to operate at peak efficiency well into their life cycle, you should start using an automatic screwdriver. The powerful 4V Screwdriver from Worx provides 300 rpm of no-load speed for a max hard torque of 44 in-lbs, and a max soft torque of 22 in-lbs. Yet, this tool is only 1.5 lbs itself, feels great in the hands, and is easy to hold from multiple angles and in varied positions to get at tough to reach fasteners. Getting a manual screwdriver into a tight space isn~t usually the problem, but generating enough torque once you get it in there usually is. With this Worx automatic screwdriver, all you have to do to generate max torque is hold down a button. The 4V motor is as powerful as some drills, and you~ll get about 45 minutes of no-load working time on a single charge. But because you~re likely to use this tool in short bursts, it will effectively last much longer than 45 minutes. Plus, it charges back up in only an hour and a half. This model comes with a box full of bits. That~s the other advantage of auto screwdrivers: you just need one and a few bits, instead of a dozen separate tools. This tool is covered by a 3-year limited warranty because we~re confident in the longterm performance of our tools. Take a step to improving the longterm performance of your hands with the 4V Screwdriver from Worx. You~ll notice the benefits immediately and still feel them well down the road.

Convenient Tool
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: cogito
Verified Purchase:Yes
A lot of great things about this product. Only negative is it might be a little bulkier than desired.
With screwdrivers and drills and bits laying anywhere, super convenient to have this kept in its case with decent assortment of bits.
Only found a couple of instances of it not having enough power for the job, but runs strong, battery life is pretty great and a frequently used USB-C charger is perfect.
Definitely a steal at the sale price

Great Sound.. Low end tablet otherwise
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: cogito
I generally like Lenovo products.. had a laptop and a couple of tablets previously. My son dropped and broke a less than year old P11 Pro Gen 2, so I bought this on sale.
Pros: It feels solid, nice weight and sturdy kick stand.
The speakers are fantastic for a tablet. Can get very loud and deep
Cons: The processing is just not strong. This performs much closer to a $120 tablet say M11 than a $300 tablet P11 Pro.
Display seems fine but something is just less than adequate with it. YoutubeTv max settings are 480p?? For a $300 tablet this is just awful. Streaming on this vs a 3yr old iPad is night and day.
There's not many options for cases. Lenovo is bad for this, not like a samsung or apple where you can find hundreds of cases. You might find like 8 different cases for this.
It total, this is a cheap tablet with great audio. I would not pay $220 for this again and certainly would never pay the $280 or whatever retail is

We~re bringing Quantum Dot Color to the people. Enjoy over one billion colors, without worrying about how many commas are on the price tag. You~re welcome. The U6G also has 4K resolution, Dolby Vision HDR and Full Array Local Dimming Zones. Sounds like science, looks like a way more expensive set.

Not even same world as a $1000+ TV
on June 4, 2023
Posted by: cogito
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had a $1300 Samsung Q70 about 3-4 years old and my kids cracked the screen playing baseball in the house.
Bought an LG C1 oled and had that for about 5 months before a spiderman toy cracked its screen.
Figured I'd just have to buy a cheap TV at this point.
Rtings had good reviews for this tv so I went ahead and bought it. I guess I am comparing this too tvs in a completely different price range but this TV is all around not good.
1) you cant change the input from a comcast remote
2) the blooming is so bad, worse than my daughters 43" amazon Toshiba
3) I have a sound bar so doesnt affect me but the sound is awful
4) having owned this tv for 11 months theres a dark wide strip at the top right of the tv. Contacted Hisense since im still within the year warranty but who nows how that will play out.
In summary, you probably get what you pay for when you buy a $500 TV, but this just misses all the marks

OLED at the top of its game. From the big game to being in the game, no detail goes unseen. With advanced gaming technology like NVIDIA G-SYNC, you'll crush the competition. Self-lit pixels emit their own light for perfect black, intense color and stunning picture~paired with our best processor for even better picture quality. Only on OLED.

How much better than the A1?
on March 25, 2022
Posted by: cogito
Verified Purchase:Yes
My 2yr old hit my Samsung Q70 with a golf club. Seen the LG A1 on sale and decided to see what the oled life was about. It looked great, however I couldn't get over what I may be missing out in the C1 for just a few hundred bucks more.
I exchanged my A1 for the C1 and can't say there was any noticeable difference. Actually am concerned my C1 has a bad panel as I swear the quality isn't even as good as the A1. Don't know if I'm making this up or not. Don't really feel like exchanging this one, but for the money I paid it is slightly unsettling

Poor customer service.
By JasonN
Do not buy from Best Buy. I bought this unit for a golf simulator and it was not bright enough for the space. I attempted to return it within their return window was told they would charge me a $160 restocking fee.

Experience rich, clear audio while streaming music or watching TV with this Samsung soundbar. The Acoustic Beam feature delivers immersive panoramic sound, while Adaptive Sound Control optimizes audio for each scene. This Samsung soundbar has a wireless subwoofer for deep low-end tones and delivers clear, distortion-free dialog with a dedicated center channel.
 

I'm looking to get the wireless rear speakers for this sound bar which ones are compatible with this?

Dont do it. The $80-120 Samsung "Wireless" rear speakers are complete junk. Took them down after 2 days of disappointment in a weird/fake surround sound setup.
