Great entry level QLed tv
on December 9, 2022
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Got this on a great Black Friday sale, so from that perspective the TV was an absolute steal. Being a QLED, the picture on it is really nice, extremely bright and just needed a little tweaking out of the box. Have not used the Google TV as i have a Roku plugged in, so i cannot comment on that. EArc works without a problem to a Monoprice soundbar, though the sound was surprisingly decent for builtin speakers, but the soundbar is the way to go. Again, what I paid for it, I'm very happy. If you are on a budget, this is a really good bang for the buck option to consider.

Elevate the look of your kitchen with a classic microwave featuring modern style and technology. The convenient handle bar design, WideView window and SmoothTouch glass controls offer a refined look, easy access and intuitive operation. With Scan-to-Cook technology, send cooking instructions for ready-made meals to your microwave with just a scan of the barcode, or use sensor cook and auto cook options to eliminate the guesswork. For extra convenience, sync the microwave with your LG smart range to automatically turn on the light and vent when the cooktop is in use. Plus, clear the air with ExtendaVent 2.0, which expands to provide powerful ventilation over more of your cooktop's surface area.

Seems like a good microwave so far..
on October 7, 2022
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Only had it for about 2 weeks, but so far so good. Its stainless steel. It microwaves stuff. All's good! Seriously though, seems like a solid microwave from one of the better brands. What sold me was the extendable vent underneath it, so it covers more of the oven below it. Some interesting features if you want to put it on your wifi and if you have an LG wifi range, but dont use it. Buttons have nice feel to them, seems powerful enough and plays a nice tune once done.

It's a power cord, it delivers power.

It came with the Bosch 800 dishwasher i purchased. Not much to say, i didnt hook it up myself, the installer did it. The house hasnt caught on fire after 2 weeks, so that's a good thing! Does what it's intended to do, give power to my pricey dishwasher, which is does.

Why buy yet another gadget that takes up counter space? This LG range with built-in Air Fry delivers crispy flavor fast with no preheating and makes enough to feed a crowd~from zucchini fries to hot wings. Main dishes also shine, thanks to fan convection that distributes heat to all areas of the oven for more precise baking and roasting. When cooking is done, cleanup is quick and easy, with the 10-minute EasyClean cycle that helps keep your oven looking like new.

Seems like a solid range after 1 month
on September 26, 2022
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Only had for several weeks so far, so no long term experience here. With that said, so far its a solid range. Some interesting features, like AirFry, which I have not tried yet since i dont have the $60 addon tray yet. Why this is not included seems like LG being a little cheap and cash grab opportunity. Oven heats up pretty quickly, and plays a nice tune once at temp. I absolutely love the front-right high BTU burner: that thing puts off some heat and gets things going quickly! Happy so far, hopefully the quality/longevity is there and dont have any defects/issues in the future.

The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8~ Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.

Fantastic phone for what I got it on sale for!
on July 20, 2022
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very impressive phone if you can get it on sale. It was on sale during Am@zon's Prime Days at Best Buy for $300, so i picked it up, seeing as it was a top Middle-tier phone from a respected manufacturer. It replaced a OnePlus Nord N10 5G, and im running it on Mint Mobile. It's not funny how much smoother this thing runs then the Nord phone, in every way: OS is smoother, better display, wifi 6 for at home, larger screen (old eyes), larger internal storage (though no SD slot is a bummer). I get great service with Mint with this, always seem to be 5G speeds, no texting/calling issues/drops. Again, for what i paid it is a steal, the normal price of $700 is not worth it.

I still suck at Warzone, but it did help my game!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Really good mouse. Bought to replace a different gaming Corsair mouse, and this one is a definite upgrade! It's a larger mouse which is just fine as i have large hands, good weight to it as well; and doesn't feel cheap. Of course the RGB lights make you play better, so that's a bonus! Battery life is surprisingly good, but i cannot speak on the Qi charging as i don't have one of those charging mats handy, but i'm sure it would work fine if i did.

So far so good; actual warrantied Retail drives!
on July 20, 2022
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought 3 of these to put in a ZFS1 TrueNas setup about a month ago. Reasonable price for these, but these are actual RETAIL drives that give you the full 5 years of warranty directly from Seagate; you can buy the same one from Amazon for cheaper but those are OEM drives that are warrantied thru some 3rd party seller, which is not worth it in my book. These are running at warmish temps in my cramped box, but running nice and fast. Constant write speeds that max out my networks 1GB connection; and my Plex server feeds these to my networked Nvidia Shields even at uncompressed 4k video just fine. Overall, solid drives, and unfortunately time will tell if these have issues and are reliable, but thanks to them being Retail drives with 5yr warranties, I dont feel like I'm risking much!

Bright, fast, and responsive. Vibrant 10.1~ 1080p Full HD display and powerful performance thanks to 3 GB of RAM and an octa-core processor. Great for on-the-go. Enjoy up to 12 hours of reading, browsing the web over wifi, watching videos, and listening to music from anywhere. Power back up via the USB-C (2.0) port. Amazon engineers Fire tablets to hold up against everyday life. As measured in tumble tests, Fire HD 10 is 1.7x more durable than the latest iPad 10.2-inch. Screen made with strengthened aluminosilicate glass.

Perfect for my needs
on December 17, 2021
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
For my needs, it works perfectly. If you look up the Fire Toolbox, this allows you to remove all the bloatware/Amazon junk that comes installed on these tablets. After removing all that, the tablet is actually pretty decent for the money. I use this as a Smart Home control tablet, so not very heavy power use.

Great value phone, I'm happy
on June 15, 2021
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
Seems like a solid phone. Only had it for 2 weeks, but is an upgrade from an LG Thinq G7. Reason to upgrade was the LG G7 had terrible reception with Tmobile based MVNO's (Google Fi, then Mint Mobile). Using Mint Mobile, now I get solid LTE coverage/speed, and also pretty solid 5G coverage/speed. Watched some Youtube reviews complain about it not being snappy, but I've not noticed that at all. This is a $300 phone, not a $1k dollar phone, so it can't be blazing fast, but is still more then I need. Built in storage is plenty with about 98GB i believe (the OS takes up a portion of the total 128gb) and has an SD slot to expand even more. Camera takes good pics, again not the best but solid. Have not shot video yet so can't say on that. The only "negative", and this was said by a friend, is that it is "heavy" compared to his LG v60 phone. I laughed at him, as it's about 7 ounces total with a case on it, and I myself weigh many thousands of ounces! Overall, it's been a solid phone, with really good reception and speed, and well worth the price.

Best home streaming device? If not, awfully close!
on March 10, 2021
Posted by: FryerNumba1
Verified Purchase:Yes
What can I say other then this is my 2nd one i purchased for my house. My 1st one still works for the most part, the ethernet jack stopped working after a power surge, but wifi works perfectly fine. As I stream large 4k content (not Netflix 4k), the wifi can sometimes stutter, which is why i bought a new unit. These are arguably the best home streaming device available and if you don't live in the Apple environment this probably the best device out there. Have not had an issue with streaming content on this 2nd unit over ethernet and ease of use is why I'll keep buying Shields.

Kickstart your day with freshly brewed coffee or espresso, from one amazing machine.

The handy reusable pod lets you use your own coffee grounds, giving you unlimited choices every day. The adjustable brew strength lets you brew a bolder cup of coffee when you want it in your daily routine. This coffee maker is simple to operate, automatically selecting the optimum brew temperature and pressure, and easy to maintain with a large 68oz water reservoir and low-water and cleaning indicators. * K-Cup is a registered trademark of Keurig Green Mountain, Inc. Use of the K-Cup trademark does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by Keurig Green Mountain, Inc.
 

Can the machine dispense Hot water for making tea without any pods installed ?

Yes, it can dispense just hot water. To do so, you'd want to use the K-cup side (the left side), make sure there is no pod in the machine, set cup underneath and then press the quantity of water (12/10/8 oz). That's it, we make hot tea or hot chocolate doing this method all the time.

You MAY want to do the smallest amount (8oz), then throw that out and then do your real serving of hot water. This would flush out the pod area and nozzle, just in case any coffee residue was left inside. Don't have to, just a suggestion.
