Nice little freezer, built-in light BIG bonus.

Verified Purchase:Yes
No complaints, does what it’s supposed to do! I like the built-in shelf on the right hand side, and the shifting wire basket for smaller frozen items. (Mine is a little lopsided, sadly, it sits crookedly on the inside lip of the freezer. Not a big detractor, but looks cheap nonetheless.)
One thing about the design I found odd: there are only two feet/levelers, and both are on the left side of the freezer, front and back. The right side has none. I did get it level, and maybe just having two to adjust rather than four like you typically see on these sorts of items makes it easier *to* get it level, but it still struck me as odd, especially if you’ll be backing this freezer up close to the wall. Other than that, a solid freezer, and the built-in light in the lid is a fantastic bonus.

This dryer cord is required for successful hook-up of your new appliance. Our delivery personnel will determine whether a 3- or 4-prong cord is needed based on the outlet behind your existing dryer.

Not Samsung’s best effort.

I purchased this as a gift for my dad to replace his Tab A (a previous Samsung model) and can’t help but think I/he “upgraded” to something that is just as glitchy as what we were trying to replace. Pages close by themselves, it’s not great at connecting to Bluetooth, and the UI is something my dad wrangles with daily. Pretty disappointed.

The two gentlemen who delivered and installed multiple items (washer, dryer, tv) were very polite, professional and pleasant. Called ahead of time to inform me they were on their way, and were respectful of property. And my dog. That’s a big deal.

These stainless-steel washing machine fill hoses are ideal for connecting most washing machines to hot and cold water.

Does what it’s supposed to.

Purchasing this entitled me to free installation, so it was a no-brained. Quality is good for what it is, does its job. In order to do “one stop shopping” I didn’t do a price comparison at a store like Lowe’s or Home Depot, but it’s a fairly generic item, and trusted Best Buy to carry something on par with the competition.

Great picture…poor UI. Really poor.
on December 31, 2021
Posted by: Cicatrix
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this in time to watch all my Christmas movies, both classic (Miracle on 34th Street) and newer (Kramer’s). For newer films, it’s like seeing them for the first time. For older films - and this is to be expected - they’re just bigger than you’ve seen them before. Some get noticeably blurrier, and lack the crispness of today’s movies. But colors are incredibly vibrant - be careful if you think it’s “dim”, as it does have an ambient lighting sensor and can adjust the screen brightness accordingly.
One complaint? I HATE the interface. Absolutely loathe it. And I’m in my mid-thirties, and consider myself a tech geek, but it is not at all intuitive. Multiple ribbons to arrow up and down or across to pick whether you want a different source, or maybe you want your apps? How about “Samsung TV Plus”? (Does anybody actively watch that?) In all seriousness, this “smart” TV will make you feel dumb, and I find it laughably that a voice-activated remote isn’t standard for Samsung now…Amazon FireStick and Roku did it for $30.
I say “no” to recommending this product because I cannot acclimate to the UI, and know there has to be something better out there.

Samsung~s dryers have advanced features like Sensor Dry, which optimizes cycle time and temperature to thoroughly dry without damaging your clothes. Also, with 7.2 cu. ft. capacity and 8 Preset Drying Cycles, you can do fewer loads in less time and fulfill almost every drying need.

Good washer, odd door design.
on December 31, 2021
Posted by: Cicatrix
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this as a package deal with its washer counterpart. My biggest complaint might seem silly, but the door doesn’t look closed (even when it is) and it is rather low to the ground, so that a basic laundry basket sitting on the floor will prevent the dryer door from swinging open. If space is an issue for you, this is something to consider. Otherwise, good washer, quiet and easy to use.

Samsung~s Large 4.5 cu. ft. Capacity Top Load washer fits more in every load and cuts down on laundry time. It is equipped with Vibration Reduction Technology+ to reduce noise for quiet washing and features Self Clean to eliminate bacteria from the drum.

Great deal for a great washer.

Solid washer. Quiet*er* than most, but obviously not silent. Glass lid allows you to stand there and watch your laundry, if you’re into that. Plenty of options so you get the exact wash you need for the type of clothing, bedding, towels etc. you have. (The sanitize setting is the only one I use for towels, for example.) No fancy bells and whistles, just a great washer.

Would like more variety from Apple
on June 7, 2021
Posted by: Cicatrix
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is as much a review of the Apple Care+ as it is of the Apple Watch series 3 itself. I am reviewing the watch again because my first Apple Watch (also a series 3) was rendered useless when a software update glitch prevented it from loading past the welcome screen, and then, from powering on at all. After "cashing in" on the Apple Care+ I had purchased with the watch in May of 2019, I received a brand new Apple Watch series 3, free of charge, and sans software update glitches.
Now to the watch itself. My biggest - and so far, only - beef is a cosmetic/App Store one: the absolute LACK of selection in terms of Faces. Apple is extremely restrictive, as in it doesn't allow 3rd-party developers to design and distribute different faces for Apple Watch. My first smartwatch was an LG G Watch for $99, and while, compared to the AW, it was a bit like having a Sticky Note pad clasped to your wrist, it DID have variety with its faces within the store. Were all of them worthy of distribution, or the price charged? NO. Of course not. But the point was *selection*.
While I have found one face and its associated complications that I *do* like with the AW3, I am extremely annoyed at the lack of personalization offered when it comes to something you look at dozens of times a day. And thanks, but you can keep your Toy Story characters, I'm not nine years old anymore.

What it says on the tin.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have owned/currently own any number of Apple devices, and while - knock on wood - I haven't had to use the Apple Care+ save for once or twice, it's a no-brainer to purchase in conjunction with any new Apple product. (Note, I *have* had to use it on an Apple Watch series 3, and that was so painless, I couldn't believe it.) So yes, you need this for the peace of mind. I can guarantee you'd rather buy it and have on the off-chance you need it, than be facing disaster (thinking especially in the realm of laptops) if you don't.

Get moving with Commuter Series for the Apple iPhone 14 and Apple iPhone 13, the thin phone case that keeps your phone safe from drops and bumps. A silver-based antimicrobial additive is integrated into the case that helps inhibit microbial growth and defends the case exterior against many common bacteria.* Wireless ready, it works with both Qi charging and MagSafe (no magnets in case). Built to beat the daily grind, Commuter Series combines a pocket-friendly profile with robust defense and added grip to ensure you keep going mile after mile. Model 77-89646.
 

Is this two pieces?

Yes it is two pieces. The flexible rubber goes on first, followed by the hard shell. I just posted a review about this, and specifically cite how I'd prefer the flexible portion to fit much more snugly than it does. The material feels cheaper than Otterbox used to use, and it's noticeable.

Upgrade screen protection for your iPhone 6S+, 6+, 7+ or 8+ with this ZAGG InvisibleShield Glass+ screen protector. Ion Matrix impact protection cushions against damage due to drops or bumps, while the oil-resistant design guards against smudges and fingerprints. This ZAGG InvisibleShield Glass+ screen protector comes with a bubble-free adhesive for easy application.
 

I need a replacement for the zagg I bought a short while ago. It cracked at bottom. I need a replacement. Please let me know when this can be settled.

If you have your receipt, go to Zagg.com, create a profile, and register the screen. Then make a claim to have it replaced through their lifetime warranty. All you should have to pay for is the shipping (around $6 I think?) I haven't had to use this yet, but I began filing a claim just to test it, and it appears to be relatively simple and painless.

Hope this helps.

Charge your main and backup GoPro camera batteries simultaneously with this GoPro dual battery charger. Dual LED indicator lights show you the batteries are fully charged, and the USB port compatibility makes it easy to connect this charger to a range of devices. Featuring an included spare battery, this GoPro dual battery charger ensures you always have a spare charge.
 

GoPro -Dual Battery Charger with Replacement Battery-Blacks. Is this compatible with the Hero5 black? I am interested in purchasing this, but I want to clarify it's the battery for my camera.

Yes! I have two of these for my Hero5 Black. I would go further than simply "recommending" and say that it is downright required.
