Good purchase, works well
on April 3, 2026
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
Easy to install and use. Purchased them on sale at a very reasonable price (compared to other brands and vs other stores both online and physical retail locations when I compared them.) Magnet seems strong and was easy to attach inside my thick Otterbox Defender Pro phone case. Nice wireless charging option when paired with my Mophie ‘wireless’ pad charger. I like that it came as a 2 pack also so I have a backup or replacement if I need to change my phone case (which was the reason for this purchase-old phone case was a few years old and worn out.)
Only thing that would be better is if these were somehow re-usable (be able to remove the very strong adhesive from back of one phone/case and place inside the new case.)

Slow to heat and cools off too fast
on January 8, 2026
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
Takes much longer to heat up than what directions say. (Directions tell you not to microwave it longer than 2 - 2 1/2 minutes. It didn’t even get “luke-warm” in that amount of time. (And we have a newer microwave 1000+ watt, so it’s not our microwave.)
I ended up heating it for 4-5 minutes and turning it over or adjusting it to make sure it heated evenly and to get it to a suitable temperature where it was comfortably hot but not “burning hot”. The size and shape and feel of the pack are also very nice. It has some weight to it but is very comfortable and the lavender is a nice touch as it smells good but isn’t too strong. The heat only lasts for maybe 15-20 minutes before the pack cooled off in room temperature conditions.
My wife has made a number of microwavable hot packs with rice that she sews inside very nice cotton covers if scrap materials she had leftover from other projects and makes various shapes and sizes of them for use on different body parts (or for different sized people.)
Her homemade hot packs take only 90 seconds up to 3 minutes (depending on their size) to get hot in the microwave will last and hold their heat well for an hour or more. The only thing better about this hot pack is that the lavender in it helps it smell better than the rice hot packs (which after a few years of use sometimes have a little bit of a stinky or burnt popcorn/rice type smell and we throw them away and replace them).
Purchased it when on great sale (50% off ~$10?) to try it for myself as an early Christmas present. Not sure I’d recommend it if you can make your own (or know someone who can.)
But maybe worth it on sale for those who just need a comfortable Heat for neck and shoulders in winter time or for minor aches and sore muscles with some light “aromatherapy” from the lavender smell.
My improvement would be better directions about reasonable expectation for heating time required in microwave (depending on size and power of microwave. And don’t expect the heat to last real long when using it. Will need to be reheated in 30 minutes.

Died after 2 years! Won’t even turn on.
on September 4, 2022
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
Was a good product when it worked.
Died just over 2 years after it was purchased in August 2020. Wouldn’t even turn on. Will be checking with Best Buy and Sony to see what they will do about it. First issue I’ve had with a Sony product (& we’ve owned a lot of various Sony products which usually are very high quality and last many, many years.) Would expect this machine to last a decade or more. I have 2 other Sony Blu-Ray players (non 4K) that we’ve had for a decade and both still
work just fine. First time I can recall not recommending an item at Best Buy. Maybe I just got a ‘lemon?’ but I don’t think so.

AirPop Pocket Masks combine KN95 respirator level protection with the lightweight breathability of a reusable cloth mask. The AirPop Pocket Mask is literally the best of all worlds. The ergo-foam nose seal is the definition of comfort. When you experience the easy breathing of our filter material, comfort of the ergonomically shaped foam and soft adjustable ear loops, you~ll know this is the mask you~ve been looking for all along. No matter how chaotic or streamlined your day is, the reusable AirPop Pocket KN95 mask is engineered for the way we all live today, providing incredible comfort, filtration, and effortless breathability, it~s unique shape and foldable construction makes it the perfect mask for on-the-go protection & convenience. AirPop~s 4 pack of facemasks are KN95 certified and meet the ASTM F3502-21 High Performance Barrier Mask Standard. Our Masks provide Professional Level Filtration. At the core of every AirPop Pocket Mask is our layer of permanently electrostatically charged filter media which in independent lab testing demonstrated >98% filtration efficiency of <0.3 micron airborne particles such as pollen, pet dander, allergens, dirt, environmental air pollution and airborne particulate matter. AirPop Pocket Masks are Engineered to fit. Our engineered ergo-foam conforms to the difficult-to-seal nose bridge area and the soft elastic ear loops are secure and comfortable. Experience our Unrivalled Breathability. Our innovative 3D Dome design is engineered for ideal air exchange, reduced CO2 accumulation and allows for natural, easy breathing. This also prevents the mask from collapsing onto the lips/cheeks which makes speech difficult and can exacerbate skin/lip irritation. Wear Glasses? Do they fog over when using your current mask? The AirPop Pocket Mask has an ergo-foam cushion comfortably seals across the nose bridge and prevents fogged over glasses. We all know Time is Money. Unlike single use disposable masks, AirPop masks and filters are designed to be reusable so they~re independently tested to verify continuous performance at the stated fit, filtration and breathability levels following 10 cleaning cycles or 40 hours of wearing time. AirPop masks don~t stop working at 40 hours though, that~s the minimum you can expect and the best indicator that it~s time to change your mask is when it~s damaged, dirty or becomes loose or more difficult to breathe through.

Decent mask, a little snug
on February 11, 2022
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
A little bit small on my face (adult male). Retains a bit of a smell (body/breath odor?) when first wearing it but washing it (by hand) helped a little bit. Foam cushion on nose piece is very comfortable. Mask works well, feels more protective than wearing just cloth mask. A little thicker than basic 'surgical' (blue/white ones) that I have to wear for work also. Picked this 2 pack up on a deal of the day for a very cheap price so worth trying some KN95 masks for $5-6.

Easy to use, wanted it to listen to AM radio and some FM radio when outside doing tasks or at a ballgame to listen to radio broadcast. Cheap plastic and could have a better switch to turn/lock on/off.

Henry Silva's somewhat controversial science fiction film Powder comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. An English soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1, while a French soundtrack has been recorded in Dolby Digital Surround. There are no subtitles, but the English soundtrack is closed-captioned. There are no supplemental materials of any consequence, which is both understandable and disappointing considering some of the concerns raised to the film's studio, Disney.

unique movie
on October 11, 2021
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
An interesting movie that was unique. Came out when I was a teenager about the same age as kids in movie so was relatable. Hard to find movie on streaming, etc so decided to purchase it when found it on sale at BB. Intriguing story, well told and acted. Worth sharing with others as it has some good lessons and fun family friendly sci-fi too.

nice adapter-does it's job
on October 11, 2021
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
nice short compact adapter to be able to use some pairs of my older wired headphones with 3.5 mm ends to connect to iPhone (or iPad) with lighting connectors. Too bad Apple did away with the headphone jack on their last few iterations of iPhones so they could just make more money on selling adapters so we have to can still use our old tech with new phones. Bought this on sale once and liked it for myself so picked up another one for family member. Usually good sound quality-sometimes drops sound, have to play with cable but usually very reliable.

typical HP ink
on October 11, 2021
Posted by: JDB123
Verified Purchase:Yes
Typical HP ink. Expensive but necessary for me to print a few things at home each year. Easy to install but doesn't always last as long as I'd like. Tends to dry up in 12 months, especially if you don't print things at least once a month. I've used generic ones from Target and other places when I can find them on sale that are basically just as effective.

How is the rat neck wrap heated & for how long does it last

Takes almost 4-5 minutes to heat up well in microwave. Lasts for 15-20 minutes max.

Haven’t used it for icing yet in freezer. But says it can be used as a cold pack also. Takes a few hours to freeze it per directions (short packet included with very minimal directions about heating and icing.)

Philips Norelco S9721/84 Shaver 9700: Achieve smooth results with this easy to use shaver. The dual-blade design captures hair and contour technology follows every curve for a close and comfortable shave.
 

Does the 9700 shaver only get its charge from the SmartClean Sytem or can it be charged by using a separate cord.

You can charge it with a separate cord that it comes with. Don't have to use the SmartClean System to charge it.
