Checks the box

Verified Purchase:Yes
This product checks the box for a secure shredder. Listening to the motor as the shredder shreds through paper, one can determine it wouldn’t take much to overwhelm it.

Loud

Very loud. Plugged in continuously for multiple days and the fan has not quieted down. It seems to be working and deodorizing the area. I wish it was quieter.

A fantastic value but basic
on January 18, 2021
Posted by: AKWanderer
Verified Purchase:Yes
Incredible value for a radio frequency (RF) controlled 16’ LED color strip. The problem is that the controllers or rather the remotes are not uniquely paired to one another. This means if you have two of these light strips, they will both accept commands from either remote together even if in different rooms. Or if a neighboring apartment unit has the same Insignia led strip. I really like this led strip but wish they could ignore other remotes.

Watch HD channels over the air with this Antennas Direct ClearStream 4MAX antenna. This long-range attic/outdoor TV antenna has quick-connect assembly that makes setup easy. It receives TV signals from over 70 miles away, and its multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF configurations provide optimal reception without having to aim it. The ClearStream 4MAX is whole-home ready and connects with existing satellite or a cable provider~s wiring to deliver the antenna's signal to all your TVs. There are also many advantages to an outdoor TV antenna over an indoor antenna. An outdoor antenna will have fewer obstructions and less interference (noise) from electronics devices inside your home. This Antennas Direct ClearStream 4MAX antenna includes a 20-inch mast with a pivoting base to allow for installations on horizontal or vertical surfaces like a roof, fascia, or attic. Note: the range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers.

Amazing Effective!

Succeeded in an Alaskan location where previous antennas have failed. Installed and directed in minutes. Expectedly, not each of the 40 channels found were watchable, but all but one of the main ones were very clear. Very impressed. Didn’t need an amplifier either.

Designed to give your Apple Watch a classic, yet bold new look. Made from minimally treated, vegetable tanned leather from one of America's oldest tanneries. The leather is designed to beautifully patina with time, creating a handsome, rich leather strap with a look that is uniquely yours.

Breaking down in less than a year
on October 30, 2019
Posted by: AKWanderer
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had this watch for less than a year. Glue was used in parts of this item in lieu of quality stitching one should expect from a quality leather accessory. This glue has now broken down and the strap is coming apart. This strap also is very susceptible to odor. Baking soda and washing it with soap and water did not help. Warranty is only 90 days, that should be an indication as to the confidence the manufacturer has in the quality of their product.

Great deal. Meticulous effort for SDR content!
on September 1, 2019
Posted by: AKWanderer
Verified Purchase:Yes
Geek squad arrived on time and in great spirits. They were friendly and answered any questions I had. They took their time with the calibration tool meticulously adjusting more than just the normal picture settings.
However, I was surprised to learn that the calibration provided by Geek Squad was only applied to the Stand Dynamic Range (or SDR) settings of my television, that their equipment could not calibrate High Dynamic Range (or HDR) content. In stores a TV with HDR is a selling point, that that coupled with HDR content (4K Blu Ray or AppleTV) is the pinnacle or color picture quality. Purchasing an expensing native-HDR OLED panel and UHD Blu Ray player made the calibration seem pointless if only applied to SDR content and settings.
SDR content does genuinely look better when viewed after calibration. For an older TV or one not enabled with HDR this will be the best way to make it accurate! However, for my favorite content I would have liked the calibration to have been applied to HDR settings as well.

Apple TV 4K lets you watch movies and shows in amazing 4K HDR - and now it completes the picture with immersive sound from Dolby Atmos~. It streams your favorite sports, news, and TV channels live. Has great content from apps like Apple TV+, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and ESPN~. And thanks to Siri, you can control it all with just your voice.

Amazing quality streaming device
on July 26, 2019
Posted by: AKWanderer
Verified Purchase:Yes
This just feels like what a quality streaming device should look and feel like. Hardware supports Dolby Vision when Roku and others do not. User interface is intuitive and responsive. Remote can be recharged with existing iPhone charging cables. Last, but not least, it gets regular software security updates!!!

Embellish your device with a functional attachment by using this black Speck GrabTab phone accessory. It~s compatible with most brands and cases, and the card-sized, flat design slips smoothly into your pocket. Use the hanging loop on this Speck GrabTab phone accessory as a grip for a secure hold or as a kickstand for hands-free viewing.

Great little device to use in lieu of a “pop-socket”! Doesn’t hold up to repeated use however. It had unglued and became useless in a matter of months.

what is HDR and what do it do
High Dynamic Range. It is a standardized term to clearly identify panels capable of displaying a wide color range (over a billion colors). In the 2010's when LED was coming to market the different brands touted many different exaggerated "contrast ratios" (i.e. the amount of shades or degrees of difference between the brightest output and the lowest light output the panel was capable of producing), such as 1,000,000:1, as there was no generally accepted standard unit to measure the ratio. While dealing with much more than just light, HDR can be seen as an attempt to correct this. An HDR label panels means it is capable of producing a minimum of 1,024 different shades of each primary color, resulting in roughly a billion different colors. This is in comparison to Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) which at maximum is 256 difference shades of each primary color, resulting in millions of colors.

Do these Oleds still suffer from Burn in? The first 2 years of my oled was the best picture I have seen , in year 3 the burn in came. No gaming, no Cnn, but still got burn in from a channel I rarely watch. Brightness , contrast and Oled turned down low
Burn-in and/or image retention is still possible. OLED Panel Settings -> "Pixel Refresher" should remove any image retention, and "Logo Luminance Adj" should reduce likelihood of it occurring in the first place by reducing the brightness of pixels in static images.
