Nice knifes poorly shipped
on March 18, 2020
Posted by: Zioina
Verified Purchase:Yes
The knifes are nice, just like the block set, but that is after I have corrected all the issues caused by shipping. First the box they are sent in had no packing, no air bubbles, no paper, no foam. So the wooden box the knifes are shipped in was cracked. Also the box was poorly built and painted. The knifes inside were just roaming around, damaging each other. The edges were damaged, the nice black finish was damaged, so an exchange via mail will likely result with the same damage. Solution throw out the wooden box, wrap the blades in foam and use a cheaper but more effective packing solution. So now I have to repair the blades, re-edge them, and clean them up as good as I can. I want to keep them, and I don't want to go through the hassle at my expense to return and retry again.

Best Grinder I've ever owned
on January 23, 2020
Posted by: Zioina
Verified Purchase:Yes
This Grinder is fantastic, easy to use, and churns out coffee perfectly. I never fill the hopper as I change coffee and espresso very often, but it's big enough for all my needs. Coffee flows smoothly and quietly through this machine. And the settings allow me to dial in the perfect grind for my espresso, french press and drip machine. It's very solid, and very well designed, everything about this unit is well thought out. High end coffee snobs might not care for it, it's less than $1000, but this is a great grinder at a great price for the coffee fan getting into espresso on a budget. This machine is super easy to use and maintain. You might be tempted to buy a cheaper grinder and I can't blame you, but if you are ready to make the leap, and you want these features this machine is the real deal.

Excellent machine So Far
on January 23, 2020
Posted by: Zioina
Verified Purchase:Yes
This machine can turn out some great drinks. I've tested every feature and found it to be sound and easy to use. That said make sure to read the manual, clean and maintain daily, and get a good grinder to go with this machine. If you do these things you will be very happy with this machine. The espresso is creamy and good. The steamed milk is great, and so is the froth. The auto modes for drinks works like a charm. I knock one star off for quality of materials, I don't feel this machine will last more than a few years of regular use, it's hard to say as this is a new model. But the materials feel thin and somewhat cheap. But this machine functions so well I can look past this for now.

This case is well designed overall, fits the bill for style, performance, and hardware support. Has a great overall layout for most ATX or MATX builds. The LL fans are great, we added 3 more LL fans and some light strips and it's purrrrdy. Great value case, it's a looker for sure.

Blows with the best of them!

These fans are just fantastic, a tad bit on the expensive side, picked mine up on sale. That said this fan is great, best tower like fan I've ever owned. Can move a ton of air and does it smoothly and without much noise. The remote is great, and is IR, so it also works with my Harmony. This fan is impressive overall and blows with the best of them.

Everything I wanted in one package
on October 8, 2019
Posted by: Zioina
Verified Purchase:Yes
OLED, vivoactive 4, great size and weight and tons of features. I've owned 2 other Garmin watches and over the years my biggest complaint was the screens. Which this model finally addressed with the new OLED which is a great improvement. Tracking seems to good, gps works as expected and workouts are simple. Works with my phone and smart scale without any issues.
The only thing that needs to be improved is the custom watch face tool. The resolution is all wrong, images look poor, the text is way to small, hard to read on the screen, and a lack of custom options and layouts. Honestly if they would fix this and give us more options this is 5 star smart watch all day.

Knifes are not fine
April 1, 2020
As stated in my review, they are damaged, I have since re-edged them and repaired most of the damage caused by the poor packing. As stated this is a warning to those interested, it's a gamble, if the knifes arrive intact they should be very nice, like the block set, which I have purchased and left a 5 star review. Please use your eyes and read the first sentience of the review. See the block set review, these are quality knifes but the simple design issues with the packing destroys that and BB don't care and thus I don't recommend you buy these unless you like wasting time or fixing damaged goods.

Feel the beat with this MartinLogan Dynamo 800X subwoofer. The high-excursion driver deepens and focuses bass tones for a more defined sound, and the powerful amplifier drives the output with extremely high efficiency. This MartinLogan Dynamo 800X subwoofer uses Bluetooth for simple setup and integrates easily with sound systems thanks to its low-pass filtering and phase control.

not bad
By jeffsupersaiyan
great for a small room . Quality is great for volume comparison when set to auto. you turn the volume up on sub it starts to sound distorted. It is over priced is my only con for it.
Agreed
November 18, 2020
This sub sounds great until it get's pushed, it gets muddy and sounds confused when trying to keep up with my system. Great for a small space, but does not hang with real home theater subs.

Cheap parts used in 128 model buyer beware
By Zioina
This desktop is a good value if you just need an computer with basic use in mind. Apple put slower and cheaper parts into the base model. It is half the speed of the more expensive model. It cannot be upgraded and is a poor value for power users or heave multi taskers. This machine lags a lot and take forever to do simple tasks in finder. Avoid this and get the pro or the 512 if you must.
Update
January 27, 2023
Review was intended to imply you need to read 3rd party reviews and determine your needs. This machine came up very short for me, I'm still not happy with performance and problems with it.This review has some errors: There is no 128 model, meant 256 base model and a few spell check items.
I just want to warn people again, go watch or read reviews on this machine compared to the 512 and pro.

Is there anyway to dim the light on this model? I bought it for my bedroom and am very sensitive to light when trying to sleep. I noticed some of the other models seem to dim, but this appears to stay lit up bright while in use.

Light stays on, I suggest some dark tape or something to block the light or darken it.

Get lost in your favorite movies with this Epson Home Cinema 4010 projector. Advanced three-chip 3LCD technology optimizes color for bright, vivid results, while the 4K UHD resolution offers an exceptional viewing experience. The 2400-lumens light source delivers up to 5,000 hours of use before needing to be replaced. With 10 preset positions and effortless adjustments, this Epson Home Cinema 4010 projector offers easy operation.
 

Is this a good projector for watching movies out door? Any downfall like portability? Does a case come with it?

This Projector is huge, it weighs 26 pounds. Honestly a smaller DLP unit would be better for travel use. But again it depends on the screen size, light desired and how much is to much for you to carry around. I would not carry this hulk around, but it is bright and can throw a large screen so it's up to you.
