Awesome laptop. Purchased it for my son who will be using it for school. Right now he's breaking it in and he's gotten a lot of use out of it already.
Whether its surfing the web or accessing Google drive to access his docs his experience has been smooth. He's also connected his wireless headphones to the laptop and has been streaming both Netflix and Spotify for his music. I haven't heard a peep from him.

Great doorbell.

Excellent door bell. Much improved over the original version. Motion detection is great and it's integration with Alexa is a pleasant surprise. The one issue I have is that Alexa sometimes has issue with connecting to the device when motion is detected and it's attempting to connect to the camera. I haven't figured out what's causing that.

Great SSD

The SSD drive is solid and very portable. Access times are quick but it appears that the drive slows down when encrypting the drive with BitLocker.

Awesome phone!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Google Pixel 6 Pro is everything I expected. Fast. Smooth display. 5G. The improvements Google made in the camera app is second-to-none. From what I can see so far, the Tensor chip is a big win.
The two issues I've seen so far is; (1) Google still has not completely fixed the onscreen fingerprint scanner. It's still hit or miss. With or without a screen protector; and (2) the battery life is not quite as good as I had hoped. It will last a day under normal/heavy use but my Pixel 4XL lasted more than two under the same use conditions.

Great set of hoses.
on February 25, 2022
Posted by: Merlin808
Verified Purchase:Yes
The stainless steel hoses work really well and allowed us to move the washer closer to the wall due to the hose flexibility. I was also informed by the salesperson that the hose would help with odors on my clothing because of the original rubber hoses.

AWESOME Keyboard!

AWESOME keyboard. The plus is that it can be connected to 3 systems using either bluetooth or the Logitech wireless USB receiver. My typing wpm (words per minute) has increased dramatically since I started using the keyboard. The feel brings me back to the days of the IBM PS/2 keyboards. Highly recommended!

This dryer cord is required for successful hook-up of your new appliance. Our delivery personnel will determine whether a 3- or 4-prong cord is needed based on the outlet behind your existing dryer.

Meet the intelligent dryer that helps you save time and enhances fabric care, all at the same time. TurboSteam technology reduces wrinkles and odors in up to 5 garments to refresh clothes in between washes. Built-in intelligence automatically selects the right drying motions, temperatures and more, and even talks to your washer to select a compatible cycle~making it the ultimate laundry hack. You~ll even score high on the durability and style scale, thanks to the scratch-resistant tempered glass door and rose gold accents.

Awesome dryer!

This is a great dryer. The different drying options are great. I just wish that this model of had the drying rack option so I could dry clothing or shoes flat. But not a deal breaker. The ability to connect the dryer to the LG ThinQ app is a great plus. Highly recommended!

When sleek good looks meet powerful cleaning and intelligent performance, you~ll experience laundry on a whole new level. TurboWash 360~ cleans larger loads fast so you get more done while enjoying the same great washing performance. And forget about endless sorting~AI technology uses built-in sensors to detect fabric texture and load size and then automatically selects the right settings for advanced fabric care. Activate Smart Pairing in the ThinQ app, and the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle, making it the ultimate laundry hack. The gentle power of steam reduces common household allergens in fabrics by more than 95%*. Durable and stylish tempered glass door with rose gold accents adds the perfect finish. *Based on certification by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA)

Awesome UPS. Highly recommended.
on January 28, 2022
Posted by: Merlin808
Verified Purchase:Yes
The APC BackUPS 450VA is an excellent product. This purchase was to replace the previous 450VA that I had. After 3 years the battery would no longer charge and, unfortunately, this model doesn't have a replaceable battery.
It gives me peace of mind that my broadband modem and home network router will remain online when a power glitch occurs at my house.
