Good basic model with duplex.

EcoTank is a great idea. Ink is ingeniously easy to fill and forget. Saves lots of bother and, hopefully, expense. If ink does last 5,000 pages, we'll see if it dries out in low home use. Print doesn't smear, or run in water. Duplex printing can save 50% on paper, plus on boxing, postage, etc.
Very compact printer, only six inches wider than a piece of standard paper. The duplex mechanism is built into the machine, not hanging off the rear as in my old Epson Artisan printer. Construction is light-weight. Printer available in white as well as usual black (why no other colors?). Very easy to set up using the (small) illuminated color screen.
To avoid a chance of paper supply bending, blowing or dusting, for a C-note more there's a paper drawer on the next higher model.

Achieve the closest shave possible with this Philips Norelco shaver. The ComfortCut blade system provides a smooth, clean cut and protects sensitive skin, while multidirectional flex heads offer consistent trimming of every contour of the face and neck. An included pop-up trimmer in this Philips Norelco shaver makes it easy to sculpt facial hair to maximize styling options.

I've had this Norelco shaver for five months.
Pros: Light weight, very quiet. Lengthy charging wire.
Cons: Cutting seems very slow and straining. Doesn't do my upper lip well ("shadow" all day). Top cutter piece falls into sink too easily when cleaning. Short battery life (about a week of full shaves). No carrying case or brush.

Beware, I had to return this nice hub because it has a very short USB-C cord that could not reach the port on my desktop machine (and still lie flat). It is fine for a laptop, but too much dangle in this dongle for a desktop!

Standing 28 inches tall, it is lightweight and ideal to use in rooms up to 189 sq. feet. The easy to use digital display panel includes UV-C control, a filter change indicator and an up to 8 hour timer. 5 speeds provide high speed allergen control down to ultra-quiet sleep mode. *Tested with Staphylococcus Albus, and Escherichia Coli, Aspergillus Niger, and Phi-X174

Air cleaner/freshener

I've been using it in rooms and overnight. It seems to work well.
At night on Fan setting 1 (lowest speed) it is fairly quiet and very steady, like a white noise. However, if you have the UV light on, the device emits a bright (apparently just decorative) light from the silver band below the top piece.
Emits a loud and long beep when controls are changed (a nuisance around sleepers).

Conveniently toast 4 slices of bread or a 9" pizza in the Hamilton Beach Toaster Oven. It gives you the versatility to cook 3 ways ~ toast, bake or broil, yet it won't take up a lot of space on your kitchen countertop. It's perfect for everyday jobs like making toast, cooking frozen meals and reheating leftovers but can do much more. Bake a small batch of brownies, broil chicken breasts or make a flatbread pizza. The toaster oven has simple manual controls that are straightforward and easy to use. It's great for seniors or anyone who wants a toaster oven that efficiently does the job without being complicated. The toaster oven has a 30 minute timer with Stay On function, a ready bell that rings when the cooking cycle is complete and auto shutoff. It has two rack positions and includes a baking pan and oven rack. The slide-out crumb tray makes cleanup easy. With temperature options ranging from 150-450~ F, you'll easily cook a variety of foods in this toaster oven.

Good basic oven.

Good capacity and looks. Simple (more or less standard) controls. Cooks a little faster than the B&D one we used to have. Has a flat top, useful for warming a plate during use. Comes only in stainless finish, which discolors easily - especially the insert tray with ordinary washing.

We'll deliver, install and make sure your new washing machine is working. We'll level your washer, plug it in and attach the hoses. Additional charges may apply if not up to local codes or requirements.

Splendid service

The two people who installed my new washer in my basement were skilled and courteous. They scraped nothing, set it up level, and left no mess.
I first carefully checked all my doorway and stair clearances and picked a wide route with the fewest turns. Best Buy's product dimensions were accurate and my new washer arrived "naked," so there was no problem fitting it through. Removing my old machine was equally well handled. Thanks again.

Did you know that your laundry room/basement/building can flood out if a washing machine hose breaks? (Or do you always turn off their two faucets?) Armored hoses like these are far less likely to crack or split than ordinary rubber hoses as they age.
My only complaint is that they are thinner hoses than the armored hoses I already had added for my former washer. I still had to pay for these new ones. Perhaps the new low-water washers don't need as much water flow?

Samsung's Top Load Washer has a large 4.5 cu. ft. capacity so you can spend less time doing laundry and have more time for you. Vibration Reduction Technology Plus~ keeps loads balanced and quiet even at high speeds, while Self Clean keeps your laundry drum fresh and odor-free so it's ready for the next wash.

Effective!

Controls are clear, but check the manual for the second-level menu about optional heat and fill levels. The numerous additive containers took me a while to learn, because they change depending on whether you use dry or liquid soaps or bleaches. Without a central agitator post, this machine has more capacity than I thought: takes a whole quilt. Nice musical chime alerts.
Overall quiet, but It emits little grunts and soughs like dry heaving when starting a cycle. Apparently it sprits water pulses, rather than a straight filling up. I should have chosen a machine with a transparent lid, for once it locks I have no idea what it is doing inside, or how high the water or suds actually get. Spin cycle is highly effective: clothes are so dried that my dryer needs only half the time as before.

Just bought this model (seemingly no model # given). The crumb tray jiggles & lowers toward the door but will not come out for cleaning. Could it poss. be that the tray is designed to STAY inside where it cannot ever be easily & completely cleaned? ABH

Depth is 11 and 7/16ths inches (from spacer knob on back to front of door handle [closed]). With door open, 17 & 11/16ths inches deep. Width is 15 & 1/16th inches.

Does the rack slide out when you open the toaster oven door?
No, it does not slide out automatically. It has two slots for the rack instead, although only the lower one is recommended for most operations.
