Perfect slow cooker for the single guy / a couple. I am not a fan of making huge portions only to have to freeze the left overs.
I can get about four servings out of one prepared meal. I got this baby for $9.99 (Deal of the Day). I sold my old slow cooker, as it's just way too big for 95% of my meals.
Washes up in the dishwasher very easily. Super happy with the buy!

Sharp. Worth every penny...

This lens is AMAZING. I have it on the Nikon Z50 with the FTZ adapter. So being a crop sensor, it's roughly 130mm zoom equivalent.
It's sharp, and man does it perform well in low light. It's also ergonomically perfect on the Z50 / FTZ. It's much easier than carrying around a 70-200 lens.
For $480, ya can't beat it. Peeps @ Akron BestBuy were very helpful (full service camera store). Pics posted for reference...

I should have read the reviews before buying these. After only an hour, only one earpiece was playing. The sound quality was so-so.
The my seemed to be somewhat comfortable, but when they don't do the one thing they're designed for...makes them kind of worthless.
I'll be returning them, and I'll go to a traditional over the ear Bluetooth system.

This baby is strong & sturdy!

Love the sturdiness of this thing. I wrapped it around the rear view mirror in my truck, and it holds my iPhone 12 Pro with an Otterbox Defender case just fine! I love how sturdy it is, as I have used some of the window mount types in the past, and on cold days, they’ll suddenly just drop onto the floor as you’re driving. Not this one...very sturdy.
And it doubles as a mini tripod as well!

Too pricey for what it is...
on January 15, 2021
Posted by: BMunster
Verified Purchase:Yes
The D780 is probably priced a little bit too high for what it is. It's a D750 with a few updates, and that camera body is kind of old, as well. I would say you're much better off getting a Z Series Nikon for less money. They're lighter, and have a EVF. The optical viewfinder in this camera is simply outdated for being over $2K just for the body.

Not impressed...

Verified Purchase:Yes
I never made it to the actual DVR system and outdoor cameras. The indoor "tracking" camera was beyond problematic trying to get going. I have used numerous systems like this one, so I am familiar with how they function. Although I cannot speak for the main system, the one indoor wifi camera was problematic, and often non-responsive / sluggish. My internet speed is 100 mb/sec with a confirmed excellent wifi signal, so that wasn't the issue. Probably why they threw the extra camera in as a "free" add-on, I would suspect. I will be returning the entire system, unfortunately.

Your full frame journey begins with the Z 5. Simple yet sophisticated, compact yet powerful, the Z 5 is built to grow with you. It~s everything you~d expect from a full frame mirrorless camera ~intense detail, expansive views, brilliant low light capabilities, 4K video and more~plus all the innovative tools you need to push the limits of your creativity.

Go where your inspiration takes you ~ capturing incredible 4K videos, wide-angle interiors, expansive landscapes, telephoto close-ups, and wildlife. And that~s just the beginning.

You'll love this camera / lens. Just buy it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I really am impressed with the Z5 / 24-200 lens combo. I think it's the perfect lens to start out with on the Z series camera bodies. It's a great walk around lens. The reach is great and it works really well with the 5 axis built in stabilization built into the Z5 body. It allows you to get sharp photos handheld even in low light without the ISO going too high.
I must say i really love the EVF in this camera. I came from a D7500 which has an optical view finder. This allows you to see in real time what your photo will look like. No more guessing!
At $1999, even on sale, it wasn't exactly cheap. But...you have to remember...you're getting a full frame mirrorless Nikon camera and a really good lens. Those lenses add up quickly.
As a retired LEO / amateur photographer, I'm very excited to get to know my Z5 over the next few years as I travel the USA.

By BMunster
I think the 50" QLED is the way to go. Huge 65" TVs show more flaws in the picture, and tend to look kind of gawdy in a small room. I don't think a lot of people see it that way.
Love the Ambient Mode feature, although I wish you could use a flash drive of your own photos instead of the sample pics they offer. That definitely should be changed next time.
At $649 I thought it was a pretty good deal. Very happy with it.

Why not be able to upload multiple photographs?
April 17, 2020
I love this TV, but as an amateur photographer, I would love to be able to upload multiple photos so that the Ambient Mode function turns into a slide show instead of simple being able to display one photo constantly. It appears that it's limited to one photo. Am I correct?

Powerful. Easy to use. Versatile. The new iPad has a beautiful 10.2-inch Retina display, powerful A13 Bionic chip, an Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage, and works with Apple Pencil and the Smart Keyboard.~ iPad lets you do more, more easily. All for an incredible value.

5 out of 5Most Bang for your Buck…
By BMunster
I know the 9th Gen IPad isn’t full of the latest greatest in technology, and it APPEARS to be the same as the 8th Gen IPad, but…
It has a new front facing camera with Center Stage technology….a faster processor, and a few other updates including more memory. And….they price matched Amazon so I got mine for $299.
I couldn’t justify the additional couple hundred bucks to go with the mini 6 or the iPad Air. And call me old, but I love the simplicity of the traditional “Home” button.
I think I kind of stole it @ $299…

5 out of 5Bella Small Size May Fool You - Generous Capacity
By pauldar

The Bella Pro Series 2-qt. Touchscreen Air Fryer is disguised as compact air fryer. However, after using it for three weeks I discovered this versatile air fryer is an efficient counter top appliance, which enables healthier cooking for Grandma and me. I can Air Fry, Broil, Bake, Roast, and Reheat with little or no oil. And, the best part is that healthier air fried foods are just as tasty and delicious as if they were deep-fat fried. How cool is that?
This Bella Pro Series air Fryer is a cut above the rest of the Bella Houseware Kitchen products and is designed for higher performance. It is made of mostly plastic with a non-stick coated steel frying basket and crisping tray. The frying basket has a 'cool-touch' handle, and the body of the whole unit is finished in finger print resistant, matte black. It blends in with all of my Kitchen appliances and the bottom of this unit has four rubberized non-skid feet to keep it stable. It is lightweight enough to be portable and I often move it about on different places as needed. My counter tops are heat resistant. The manufacturer suggests placing this air fryer on heat-resistant work spaces in order to avoid counter top damage. This unit pulls in air to circulate over the 1200 watt heating element in a circular vent at the top of the unit. Heat is exhausted out of the back of this unit so the manufacturer suggest to keep a four inch clearance from walls or other objects during operation. When removing the frying basket it is important to place it on a heat-resistant surface, or trivet because it will be hot.
Advantages of this Bella Pro Series 2-qt. Touchscreen Air Fryer:
* Healthier cooking using little or NO oils whatsoever. Air Frying is the new approach to reduce cholesterol and polyunsaturated fatty acids in cooking oils. Again, I am amazed at how tasty air frying is and good for my health too. YooHoo!
* Quickly cooks vegetables, meats, fish, and poultry without preheating. Holds up to to two quarts of volume. Enough French Fries to serve my four Grand Kids when they visit and want a snack. WoW!
* High performance circular heat technology. Distributes heated air flow for faster cooking. It cooks the foods more evenly and makes them crispier too. YUMMY!
* Responsive and easy to learn Touchscreen Controls. Preset functions with preset temperatures and times. However, the time and temperature can easily be changed manually at any time during the cooking process. By using the marked Up & Down Time and Temperature arrows both Time & Temperature can be decreased, and, or Increased. This is important when cooking foods, then pausing to shake, and or, turn the food items half way through the cooking process. I can easily tell when I need to add or increase the temperature or time.
* Safety features include the pausing of the preset cooking choices when the frying basket is pulled out of the air fryer. The cooking process will resume immediately when the fryer basket is installed back into the main body. The unit will Not cook if the fryer basket is NOT installed. The unit can be turned OFF by pressing the Power Button for two seconds. After 60 minutes this unit will automatically turn OFF and sound an audible tone.
* Care and Maintenance is NOT complicated. The frying basket and crisping tray are easily cleaned in my Kitchen sink with soapy water, and. by hand as I prefer. They can also be put in the Dishwasher, but I think they last longer if cleaned by hand. The main body of this Bella air fryer can easily be cleaned with a damp dish cloth.
* Be aware there is a learning curve to the process of air frying. Pausing the cooking process half way through the presets is very important. I can easily determine if I need to continue with the same preset Times and Temperature, or, if either one needs to be changed. The Bella Touchscreen makes this a simple adjustment.
* Tips – Placing a piece of aluminum foil under the crisping tray makes clean-up much easier, especially when air frying, roasting,or broiling fatty meats. Make sure the 'shiny' side is facing up. It reflects heat much better under the crisping tray. Try re-heating foods in this Bella instead of your microwave. This Bella reheats foods more evenly and thoroughly. Love It!
* This Bella Air Fryer is quite an energy saver compared to my conventional six cubic foot oven. The Bella only uses 1.2 KW, while my conventional oven uses upwards to 4 KW and takes much longer to preheat and cook. The Bella is fantastic in comparison.
I highly recommend this Bella Pro Series 2-qt. Touchscreen Air Fryer. Me and Grandma are amazed how quickly this unit prepares our foods in less time then it takes to preheat my conventional oven. We were very skeptical at first because healthier foods aren't supposed to taste this good, or are they? Buy a Bella Air Fryer and find our for yourself . This unit is ideal for a couple, or family of four with two small children. This Bella is inexpensive, and may actually pay for itself over time compared to using your conventional oven. Makes a great wedding, housewarming, or just a special gift to that particular person or family member on your list.

How would this fit the 2020 model? It doesn't have the right camera holes? I could be wrong, but I don't think it'll fit...
