This is a great security camera for the price!

Posted by: Xtos
Verified Purchase:Yes
PROS: Adding a doorbell to my condo door, adding a security camera to my main door and hallway, notification when someone is at my door with a food or package delivery, and notification when a package delivery occurs along with a video record. (due to motion sensor). This camera also saves a good number of these videos, which you can delete after viewing to save space. I don't yet see the need to pay for the monthly cloud service, but it's nice to know that option exists if needed. They keep improving the features, so I'm very pleased with everything so far. I agree with many users that you can't actually see the packages placed at your door, because the viewfinder doesn't include that area in its range. This would be a nice improvement. But overall, you will have video of anyone that delivers a package or attempts to take a package, since it will trigger the motion sensor. So not such a big deal. I mounted my peephole cam a bit lower, below my door knocker, to improve the viewing range. It helped a lot. Battery life also seems good, but depends on how often you view videos and other settings. Highly recommend this camera/doorbell.

Excellent range with many great features

Love this range! It's a great overall design and looks amazing in my new kitchen. I love the flexibility of the front left burner (small and large coil option) and love the extra warming burner in the rear center. I also love that the bottom tray has a warming/broil feature. The panel lock feature is also nice. The oven heats evenly and does a great job browning when broiling. Love the extra rack as well. Highly recommended.

WOW! This is an awesome washer!
on March 11, 2020
Posted by: Xtos
Verified Purchase:Yes
I absolutely love this washing machine! It's quiet, efficient, and gets my clothes clean! I love the fast cycle as well as the extra rinse and the way it spins the clothes so well that they are almost dry! This is especially useful for clothes I plan to hang dry. A few things I noticed to improve performance and maintenance is to have a dedicated towel handy to wipe the water off the door and soak up any residual water left under the grey rubber flap around the circular opening. Water always collects there and if you don't soak this up with a towel, mold can grow over time. I also decided to add the detergent directly to the washer chamber instead of using the upper fill cartridges to avoid gunking up the interior tubes/slots that can also encourage mold growth. This was advice given to me from a relative with a similar machine. I do suggest using the slots for bleach as directed in the manual. Overall, an excellent machine! I only wish these compact machines were better priced, as they are all currently around twice the cost of a regular sized washer. (from all manufacturers) Somewhere around $600 seems more appropriate.

Excellent dryer! I absolutely love it!!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not sure why some reviewers are saying this dryer doesn't dry clothes fully or takes forever, etc etc. I can only suspect they overloaded the dryer, have a defective unit, haven't been maintaining it (cleaning filter), or didn't get the dryer installed properly.
My experience has been fantastic. This dryer sits on top of the washer (which I also love) and dries my towels, jeans, clothes, etc fully withing 45 minutes or less. I love the autodry feature which detects moisture levels. This dryer is especially great for clothes that you want to dry gently and not damage (Permanent press, etc) but also works great on heavy cotton items like towels, blankets, and jeans. I wish these compact units were cheaper, that is my only criticism. They cost nearly twice as much as a regular sized vented unit made by other manufacturers. Alas, this is the going price for compact condensation units by almost all manufacturers. Hopefully this will change in the future. I think a $500 to $600 price point would be fair.

Sleek, modern design and excellent filtration

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love this air filter! It can be a bit loud on the 4 or 5 setting, but perfect at level 3. I recommend using level 3 if you run it all day for general air filtering and only use level 4 or 5 if you need it to work quicker after cooking or for eradicating a sudden increase in allergens, pollen, dust, or smoke. Otherwise level 3 works well as the default setting. I love the handle feature, which makes it easy to move it from room to room. I'm not sure how effective the circulation is, since the air seems to blow behind near the intake vents, but so far it seems to be very effective at reducing odors, dust, and allergens. I've had much more restful sleep and less congestion since using this unit.

Great option for a white monitor/tv

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not sure why there aren't more white TV's and monitors available on the market, but they are few and far between. I got this as an open box item, so the price was reasonable. But I wouldn't pay full price for this resolution quality. It really should be 1080P for this price. But it works great as a desktop monitor and extra tv for the bedroom or kitchen. Overall a good looking unit, very responsive, and I love the SMART TV features... but the newer 1080P model has a much better picture quality. Get this one used/open box.

Brightness level

I noticed this as well. It’s because it defaults to the energy saving mode. You can change this in the settings and even further adjust the brightness and best picture mode! It makes a big difference! Still, the image should be sharper/clearer for a 2018/19 model TV.

I cannot take one more day of using my dryer. Can I buy a new dryer [not a Bosch)) and use the washer independently.?

I'm surprised you aren't happy with your Bosch Dryer. I just bought mine a month ago and love it! I suspect something might be wrong with the specific unit you have or with how it was installed. Or perhaps, the filter needs cleaning? Or maybe it's one of the settings? My dryer works beautifully and dries clothes quickly and nicely. The issue you have with switching to a different dryer is if you wish to stack it on top of the Bosch Washer and plug into the Bosch Washer. The stacking kit only works for Bosch washer/dryer and preferably same model. ( But some models are interchangeable for stacking, check with Bosch). You may also need another or different type of power outlet depending on what you buy. (LG, GE, or Whirlpool for example use 110v)

How noisy is it?

Level 5 is a bit noisy. I would compare level 5 with the sound of a typical stove exhaust fan at full speed. I can't use level 4 or 5 near the TV. But level 3 is rather quiet and seems to be the perfect default setting. I tend to keep it at level 3 90% of the time and only use Level 4 and 5 after cooking, cleaning, or when away from the home.

Has anyone that is asthmatic had luck with this?

Yes, I'm asthmatic and I found this air filter helps a lot. Especially bedside. Immediately noticed a difference. One nice thing is the height that this unit has, bringing clean air closer to where I'm breathing. Whereas previous units I've used were circulating the air much lower to the ground.
