Superb Refrigerator
on March 16, 2021
Posted by: WesternSky
This is a NICE refrigerator! It's spacious, very well lit, has a beautiful stainless steel finish, produces plenty of ice and is super quiet. I actually have to put my ear on the refrigerator to see if its functioning. So far, so good. The workmanship of this refrigerator is superb. It was packed well and arrived in perfect condition. Every detail of this item seems to have been well thought out. Water filter for example is located on the top left hand side inside of this appliance and it so easily changed. No more bending down and fumbling with changing water filters on the floor level. I personally used the BestBuy installation and haul away service. There were two installers who were amazing. In my personal home, all three doors of the refrigerator had to be removed and reattached inside my kitchen. My home was constructed in 1966 and kitchen archways measure less than 30 inches in width. I tip my hat to the installers who did an amazing installation job. I'm very happy with this appliance. I will put up additional comments in the coming months with additional information.

FLTR95 Sealing Face Masks use a melt-blown polypropylene filter that is highly effective, offering ~95% filtration of airborne particulates @ 0.3+ microns. And, unlike cloth or surgical masks, Sealing Face Masks are designed to reduce particles inhaled by the wearer. The tight face-to-mask seal of the FLTR95 reduces leakage and directs inhaled air through the filter membrane to minimize inhaled particles. Secure fitting ear loops pull the mask back snugly against the face, while the folded form factor and adjustable nose piece conforms well to a variety of face shapes and sizes. The multi-layer construction uses materials selected to deliver the functionality required by demanding wearers. An outer layer provides a barrier against large particles and droplets. The filter layer uses a purpose-built melt-blown polypropylene membrane to capture small particles and aerosols. Lastly, dual comfort layers help to wick moisture and heat from exhaled air away from the mouth and face. FLTR95 masks undergo a rigorous and continuous quality control and testing process to ensure a consistent, reliable standard. They are produced at internationally certified facilities, tested on state-of-the-art technical equipment at FLTR~s QC department, and verified by independent 3rd party test labs. Since face masks can accumulate airborne particles and moisture over time, FLTR95 masks are intended for single use only and can easily be disposed of after use. Not for medical use. This personal protective mask cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infectious disease. Intended for single use only ~ discard after use.

This product works well. It is a perfect fit and by using this product you will save countless dollars instead of purchasing K cup pods. This is my second purchase of this product as I have multiple members in the household. It does not leak and clean up is easy. Just remember to let the coffee grounds cool down before rinsing.

This is a pretty decent manual turntable. So far it’s performance is fine. I coupled this item with a Shure V15 Type 3 cartridge and stylus, which is on the high end. I found the on and off switch to be rather flimsy and I hope it stands the test of time. It is also located in a funny position on the turntable. One nice feature is that the product has an LED light which can be positioned to throw light onto the turntable. Using the product in a dimly lit room becomes a snap with the LED light. So far I have not recorded any music directly from records onto my computer which is also a feature of this product, but I’m sure after the download of the application it will work just fine. So far so good and I’m enjoying this turntable.

The diecast aluminum platter produces uniform rotation for smooth flutter free operation.

Cheaply made turntable
on January 25, 2021
Posted by: WesternSky
Verified Purchase:Yes
I utilized curbside pickup for this product. Pickup experience was fantastic. I also had BestBuy price match this product from another competitor which made me quite happy. Unfortunately this product was defective right out of the box. Initial observations of the product: Cheap feeling controls, internal mechanisms which were visible when platter was removed were made from cheap plastic gears. To me plastic gears don’t have a long life expectancy. I feel that for the price of this product the gear mechanism could have been made with steel or aluminum gears. The stylus and cartridge have an angular bend to them which is fine, however if you try and replace it with a quality cartridge that is not angular in nature (such as a Shure V15 Type III) it will not make contact with the turntable. I hope users have a better experience than I did with this product.

Awesome Phone.
By WesternSky from Florida
WOW is my overall impression of the Experia XZ2 Compact phone. Super smooth, super quick and awesome camera. I will not bore you with the phones specifications, but I will tell you that you will be very happy with a purchase like this. Let me start off by saying that the phones camera is stupendous. Pure amazement on the colors, and the sharpness. I have 3 other brands of phones, one of which is a high end phone. Side by side comparisons of the photographs taken with all 3 phones is a no brainer. Sony easily won hands down. Phone reception and call clarity is great. Application launches were super quick with no bog down. One really cool feature of this phone is called "Casting". You can project one of your saved photos directly onto your smart TV. How very cool is that? I'll bet that the first time your "cast" a photo onto your TV you will take your audience by surprise. In my case there was no set up for this feature to be used. NICE. One other thing that I would like to mention, is that I read some reviewers complained of a cheap feel specifically mentioning the back of the phone. I did not find this to be the case at all. My main concern is that a phone works well, has a great camera and is fast. This is certainly the case with the Sony phone. I love this phone. Buy one.

I have had this phone for several months now utilizing the METROPCS Network. Just the other day, I decided to try and switch phone service to either AT&T or Sprint and come to find out that neither supports this SONY phone. My advice, is to ensure that your phone carrier network accepts this device otherwise you will be disappointed. Also a word of caution: Please be careful as to shopping around for unlocked cell phones.

Superb Video/Dashcam
By WesternSky from Florida
The Escort M1 Dashcam is a compact video camera which captures some of the clearest, crispest and totally in focus images that I have ever seen. My unit was coupled with the Escort IXc, and tested on my 2018 Honda Accord sedan. When I first tested this unit, I neglected to remove the clear plastic lens protector from the M1 Dashcam unit. During a local 40 minute drive, the unit made around 41 one minute film clips. Talk about clarity, second to none (even with the plastic cover on the lens!) The images were even better when I tested the unit later on and the plastic cover was removed.
The camera has a real wide range of view with respect to traffic areas. It had no problem with the capture of at least 3 lanes of traffic on the righthand side of the road, and also will capture the median and 3 lanes of traffic on the other side of the road (and lots more). This especially is crucial when it comes to an accident and the recording of valuable film footage in proving ones innocence.
Vibration or shaking on video playback was absent. I believe this to be a direct result of the mounting hardware which seems to be doing an outstanding job. Clear video is a must and this dashcam certainly delivers.
The sound recording in my opinion was adequate, and road noise (even when windows were closed) was also picked up by the M1 Dashcam.
Overall the Escort M1 Dashcam is a winner, and I love this unit. I think you'll be as pleased as I with your purchase. Buy one.

Observation concerning recorded video playback
April 24, 2019
For several days I have been testing the Dashcam coupled with my Escort iXc. One thing that I have noticed, is that when I watch the video clips (amazing clarity), playback of the video clip/s always appear as if your car was traveling faster than it actually was. Try going through a parking lot and travel at low speed and then download the clip. I'm sure you will agree with me that the clip actually looks faster. This is not a bad thing, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Enjoy your new Escort M1 Dashcam

Answer to Walts Question, commnet
April 25, 2019
Hi Walt. Thank you for taking time to read my review. At the moment, I don't have any video to upload, as the clips are all 1 minute clips and the amount of bandwidth will exceed what the Best Buy site allows. On my Honda Accord, I strictly use the power adapter that plugs info my cigarette lighter and I have not hard wired it. So far I have positioned my Escort unit in two different positions (either dead center on my windshield (low or high). Either position works for me and the video is great. I don't think you'll be disappointed, as it's a great Dashcam. Hope this information helps you out.

Outstanding Product. Fits like a glove.
By WesternSky from Florida
I have been a fan of OtterBox for several year and this.product is no exception, as I love it. The fit on my iPhone XS is amazing and its like having a second skin. This is my first experience with a PopGrip, and I can honestly say it is so useful. I leave it in the extended position while I face-time as I use it to prop up my phone while its placed on a table top. The PopGrip also makes holding my phone easier as its more comfortable to hold while on phone calls. Its great. If you are looking for a quality product I highly recommend the OtterBox.. Give your IPhone the best protection for the money.

Solid Performing Device
By WesternSky from Florida
The Google Pixel 4A smartphone enters the market as a medium level device with a good price point. It is a decent phone, and its price is two thirds less than my current smart phone. It does lack some high end features such as facial recognition, water resistance, wireless charging, but it does have a fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint sensor comes in real handy with the COVID-19 pandemic as face recognition on phones fail to work when someone is wearing a mask.
I was pleasantly surprised with its performance and it operated as advertised. It flawlessly navigated and switched between programs. There was no perceived bog-down or slow performance. The phone has some really cool features which I haven't seen before, such as Astrophotography, and Live Caption.
The Pixel 4A has a feature known as Astrophotography which is awesome. You can photograph the stars due to its long exposure feature capability, but you will need to utilize a tripod to stabilize the phone during this mode. You also have a dual exposure control allowing for the user to separately control shadows and picture highlights. This feature is particularly handy allowing for the tweaking of brightness settings.
Google boasts an all day battery capability. To me it comes down to what type of usage you put your device through. The heavier the application drainage, the quicker your battery discharges. I found that putting the device through normal everyday tasks left me with quite a bit of battery charge at the end of the day. Google indicates that this phone has an adaptive battery which supposedly learns from your daily phone usage making battery life more efficient. The adaptive battery learns as you use your device, and it powers down programs which you never or rarely utilize, whereby saving battery life.
The phone is advertised as a 4G LTE device. Frankly I was surprised that the device was not 5G LTE capable. With the advancement of all of the 5G networks, it would have been nice if this device was 5G capable.
Security is enhanced with a Titan M chip This provides for your phones security. I honestly don't know how it works, but any enhanced security features is always a welcomed edition. Google indicates they supply 3 years of the operating system and security updates, after that, its anyone's guess.

Live Caption was tested during my use with this phone. I for one, have never heard of this feature. During your phone calls, you have to option to have this device capture audio from your conversation and generate captions from the speech that it hears and recognizes. It did a surprisingly good job.
Google assistant is similar to the "Siri" but takes it a step forward. Depending upon the question asked, you can follow-up with an additional question that was related to the original question. It is a very useful item and I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with this feature.
The phones camera was great. Colors were true to life, and having a low light capability was awesome. I did a side by side comparison of pictures with my "costly smart phone" and honestly I did not see any differences. The Pixel did a great job of image capturing.
PROS
Astrophotography and lowlight capabilities
Good amount of storage 128 Gigabytes
Good camera quality
Good battery life
Fingerprint sensor
Live caption
Google Assistant
CONS
Wireless technology is capped at 4G LTE
No face scanner
No wireless charging
No water resistance
Although this device lacks some high end features that I have become accustomed to, I can honestly get along without these features. The operation of the phone was generally good, and is packed with some really exciting features guaranteed to entertain. If you are looking for a decent phone that won't break the bank, look no further. The Google Pixel 4A is really fun phone to own and it should make you a happy consumer.

To the customer Afriend who left a comment stating this phone costs $999.00 dollars. This particular phone the Pixel 4A 128 gigabyte, is listed on the BestBuy web site at $349.00 dollars. It does not cost $999.00 dollars, If you check BestBuy web, it now costs $299.99. You are mistaken about the price. DO take a moment to check the web, as the Pixel 4XL is the really expensive one. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment for my review. By the way, this is a pretty amazing phone for its price point, and works great. Have a great day.

Dual ice maker is awesome. If you are planning on entertaining you can separately activate the second ice maker and fill the secondary ice bin. You can shut it down independently of the ice maker in the door. Frig has lots of room and the bottom freezer is a first for me. We never had a bottom freezer. So far it’s working out better than expected when it comes to locating items stored in the freezer.

This is a really stylish refrigerator. Beautiful stainless steel finish that hides fingerprints. Having a dual ice maker really comes in handy when extra ice is needed when entertaining friends. There is really quite a bit of room in this refrigerator and the LED lighting is more than adequate. I honestly thought that having a refrigerator with a bottom draw would take some getting used to but quite the opposite. I found that finding my frozen items to be quite easy. In fact more easy than a side by side. I love this product. It’s super quiet and blends in well with my other kitchen appliances. LG has a winner on its hands.

We continue to enjoy this fridge. It is very spacious to say the least. It runs real quiet and having the dual ice maker is a real plus. We actually continue to love the bottom draw freezer.

Awesome Power Strip!!
By Westernsky from South Florida
Well, let me start off by saying that surge protectors have really come a long way! Enter the ELAC Proteck 8 Outlet surge protector.
With today's high-tech appliances and electronic equipment being so sensitive and very expensive, it's nice to know that you can protect your investments from dangerous spikes and power surges. If your device is supplied with excess voltage which the item can't handle, a surge occurs. If the surge last more than 1-3 billionths of a second, it's a spike. I know this is technical, but for a layperson, just knowing that your expensive refrigerator, Flat Screen TV, stereo, can literally be fried and ruined in a blink of an eye. Your items can also be subjected to harmful spikes by powering them on or off. An electrical storm is yet another worry, therefore protecting your items should be paramount.
The Elac Proteck surge protector provides an extra level of protection of your electronics by providing the over or under voltage protection, which essentially cuts off the incoming electrical voltage should certain parameters be met. Once everything returns to normal, power is reconnected to your devices when "normal" or safe voltage levels return.

One feature that I love is the Status LED's. The LED lets you know that your plugged-in devices are grounded and are pulling the correct amount of voltage from your outlets. Personally, I am using my surge protector on my very expensive refrigerator. Living in south Florida we have some many electrical storms that I can't even begin to count them. Knowing that I have a device which is going to provide protection is a really nice feeling.
Another nice feature of this surge protector is having dual USB charging ports. So, you have an extra way of charging your USB devices.
This unit has LED indicators so you can easily see if your devices are fully protected. You can also see if the ground of the outlet is operational as well as reversed polarity.
The surge protector plug rotates in any direction needed so that you can plug your strip into an electrical socket in any direction needed.
In closing, this is a really nicely made surge protector. Having that piece of mind that my expensive refrigerator is fully protected. I plan on getting another one to protect my computer, monitor and flat screen TV. It's worth the investment.

Short and sweet. This printer rocks!
By WesternSky
The HP LaserJet Tank 2504dw is a wireless Black-and-White Laser Printer that comes standard with 2 years' worth of printing toner. You will have to set up your new printer via app and set up an HP Smart account. You will need an internet connection for the setup process. I found the printing capability to be of great quality. Clear fast printing was the norm. I did not experience any paper jams during regular printing as well as printing some addresses on envelopes. Ink was dry to the touch as soon as the page was finished printing.
When I first unpacked the printer, I was worried that the "depth" of the 15.4 inches might have been too long for my printer shelf. As it turns out, the printer which it replaced had a similar footprint even though it had an internal paper tray. Needless to say, crisis averted.
Printing and scanning are the only two options with this product. It does not have faxing or copying capabilities. As far as I'm concerned, faxing is not something that I routinely need to do but I do on occasion have to copy a document. I guess the work-around for coping is taking a taking a picture of my document and emailing it to myself. The second option was for me to scan the document with my iPhone and print it.
The manufacturer boasts of a print speed of 23 pages per minute. I did find this to be true during my testing of this product, as it is quite fast. What I enjoyed most was the mobile printing capability, as I always seem to need to print something from my iPhone 13 Pro.
This printer is workhorse. It is quite easy to set up, prints really good-looking documents, it has both wireless and wired capabilities and works well. I have no real complaints.

Correction. I mistakenly indicated that the product does not have a copy mode. My mistake. It certainly does. My bad. Despite this, I still loving this printer.

If you use a subwoofer, is it only connected via RCA connection or can you connect it with regular speaker wires?

Hi. I own this product and I had the same question. You can hook a subwoofer up in 2 different ways. One way is to use the RCA subwoofer out jack which is an RCA, or you can wire your speakers wire directly to either the right or left speaker jacks. I have mine wired with my right speaker, and my subwoofer works perfectly. There is nothing in the manual or online regarding g this so I reached out to the manufacturer who informed me of these hookup choices. Hope this helps you. I’m closing, this is a really nice product and I’m enjoying it immensely.

Yes you can, however you need to utilize an adapter such as the FotodioX Nikon F-Mount, G-Type Lens to Canon RF-Mount Camera Pro Lens adapter. Kindly remember that focusing is difficult as there is no split screen.

We received our new oven and it did come with a basket for air frying. Is that all that is needed to air fry? Another customer stated that you need to buy an air fry rack. Thank you

We sir fry on the supplied rack or on a cookie sheet. Either one in our experience does the job! Great stove!

how long is the power cord

I don’t have the exact answer you are looking for however the cord is relatively short as this unit fits over your stove. You really don’t need much length of the power cord because of this.
