One of the 3 Best Marvel Infinity Wars Buildups
on November 29, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the 3 best of the Marvel Infinity War buildup movies. Has a decent combination of the serious, funny, and pure action.
I actually liked Michael P. Jordan's bad guy, "Killmonger" best of all.
He was a conflicted and not totally bad guy, but still darned bad.
The special effects were really good; almost too overused, though.
Overall, I would recommend and have watched it multiple times.

Great Addition to Smart Home
on November 29, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
Great addition to my smart home. Still haven't figured out all that it can do. Like the drop-in feature that works with my Ecobee smart thermostat.
I bought another to go into my wife's office.
I am looking forward to having enough time to go through the manual and internet to see what all this can do.

Impressive so far, after only 1 month
on November 8, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have only had this for less than a month, but so far, I am impressed with it. It was pretty easy to install, started up easily, and has good information readily available.
This is my first "smart" thermostat. I bought 2 of these, with the extra module for other rooms.
I noticed right away some of the problems I had with some rooms being obviously warmer than others are minimized. I had issues with 1 zone causing 2 other zones to get really cold when the first room was cooling by 2 degrees. That problem is gone now. Hopefully, that will save me some money.
I haven't had them long enough to figure out if there is any savings. It is nice to be able to talk to Alexa and drop in on the Echo devices in the house.
So far, I would say this is a "buy".
Was a little expensive, but not too much.

Pretty good, not great
on September 24, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for a home office, replacing a Brother model. This is a prettier printer; looks professional.
The setup was pretty easy, initially. The app must be used to set it up. It didn't initially recognize my wifi, took several restarts to get it to recognize, so that I could complete setup. Once that was done, setup went smoothly.
The print quality is very good. One issue it that it doesn't scan then print multiple items at once. We can try to scan a document with multiple pages, then have to print them one at a time, instead of being able to print all at once. My Brother printer allowed that.
This was more expensive than i thought it should be. I guess that many printers are because more people are staying home. That being said, it wasn't bad compared to similar models.
I have only had it up for a little over a month and have had to replace the initial cartridge. I do wish it came with multiple cartridges instead of "black" and "color".
The auto ship is convenient, sort of, as long as you don't print above HP's alloted limits.
Overall, a good purchase.

Looks good; wish it were a little bigger
on August 10, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I like the look of this. The price was good. It installs rather easily. I would suggest using more than the 2 screws that come with it if you want to put anything of substance on the shelves. I used a couple extra screws and firmly secured it to the corner.
The shelves give you 7.5 inches of space; right at the height of a DVD case, and not a millimeter more. I tried to fit a 5"x7" picture standing upright in a frame on them and there was not enough room, same for one of my kid's trophies, and several greeting cards.
If the shelves were even an inch farther apart, it would be much more serviceable.
Overall, I like it, just wonder if this is the "Large" shelf, what must the "small" look like?

Overall, a really good purchase
on August 10, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had this for about 1 1/2 years now. It has held up well and cleans clothes well.
I like the big tub without the agitator in the way. I don't hit my knuckles reaching in without looking while grabbing clothes + it holds lots of clothes, blankets, etc.
The controls are OK; almost at the point of giving too many options. I long for the days gone of "hot", "cold", "warm", "permanent press", "delicate", and "regular". Now, there are enough options to keep you at the control panel for an hour deciding which do you REALLY need.
One small knock is the drawer to add detergent is at the back of the opening, and it doesn't open far enough to pour detergent right out of a big bottle. I have to pour it into the cap, then pour it into the drawer.
Other than that small detail (and the price), a good purchase.

Pretty good budget soundbar
on August 10, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am satisfied with this soundbar; the sound from it is clear and the bass is OK.
It was easy to install and set up. It synched with my Insignia 4K TV well, except for the power. The TV does not turn on the soundbar. I have gone into the settings several times and cannot figure out how to turn the soundbar on/off with the TV's remote. That is irritating; it would be nice to have to only push one button to start listening and watching.
Outside of that irritant, I am pleased. No, it's not on the level with the $1,000 ones, but it is better than some others at its same price point.

Had for a month now. No complaints.
on June 19, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this after a price drop. I thought it was a decent price at the regular, but, under $300, it was a steal.
It was easy to mount, very light for its size. The hookup was easy. It started right up and found my network easily. It linked quickly to my Amazon account. Once it was mounted, I was watching TV on my Amazon account within 5 minutes.
Finding other apps and downloading them took a little work. Still haven't been able to find all that I want.
The picture is very good; rivals my Samsung 43".
The sound is so-so, but, I afterwards purchased a sound bar (Insignia) which improves the sound. It is in my office; I don't need serious surround sound.
I do wish it would control the power to the Insignia sound bar; it does control the volume.
I have only used it for a couple hours so far, so I cannot give a long-term review, but initial review is: very good. I would say 4.5 stars. I would recommend it, especially at under $300.

Very, very good system
on May 8, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is the 2nd PS4 I have bought for my kids. The system looks good and performs as expected. My only negative is the wifi capabilities are spotty; not terrible, just sometimes it doesn't have as strong a connection as it did just 10 minutes prior, with no other changes to any other part in the link. The other items on the same connection can be running just fine and the PS4 will drop off, then pop back up.
It doesn't bother me, but my son loses his Fortnite connection for 30 seconds and you would think the world is ending.
Overall, a very good item. I wonder how much better the Pro Version would be. Don't really think it would be worth it to me.

Pretty good, frost could be a slight problem
on May 4, 2020
Posted by: TheBBM
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have owned this for about 2 years now, have had to completely defrost twice. Several items got stuck to the floor and the bags tore, so the meat was ruined.
I ensure the lid is closed and make sure the power is always on.
The power went out during a storm and the freezer kept everything fresh and cold for over a day.
I did make sure I drained it after the power was restored, because things began to thaw slightly.
It is nice and deep, therefore sometimes getting to the items on the bottom can be a chore.
I would've rather gotten an upright freezer, but none was available at Best Buy in the size I wanted when I decided to purchase.
This is a good purchase for a small space and keeps things cold.
I would recommend it to a friend.

Why is it better?
October 10, 2020
I am thinking of buying the 3rd gen one, but why is it so much better than the older ones that it justifies $249 vs $99? I don't have either, yet and wonder which to buy.

I was wondering if anyone had tried both the WAVE 2 Bluetooth Insignia speaker and the Insignia Speaker 2 portable bluetooth speaker. I am interested in the comparison between the two. Sound quality, durabililty, how well liked? Thanks
I have both the WAVE 2 and the BRICK 2 speakers. Both are good values, I think. The Brick 2 was $10 more and, for that, I think it is worth it. The Brick 2 is louder (not by a whole lot, but, noticeably), lasts longer by a few hours, and has deeper bass.
The WAVE 2 is much louder than I thought it would be, though, while maintaining sound quality. Both link up to Bluetooth very well. Both stay linked up for at least 25 feet inside a building.
