Bought this for our back porch. Works great. Picks up the FM stations, plays CD's also Blue tooth's Pandora from my iPhone. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the volume. It distorts at high levels. I'm used to the surround sound inside the house, the Bose Wave Radio and Bose earbuds. However, this boom box was much cheaper than my Bose items. So, I guess for the price, it's well worth it. I'd buy it again.

This DVD player/streaming device is upstairs in the second bedroom. Perfect for the kids to play DVD's and watch Netflix. Set up was a breeze and because it's pared with a Samsung TV, the remote works both! Glad I bought it.

This is the best little vacuum ever! I have had several little vacs and I have never been satisfied. Either they weren't powerful enough, too big, too little or scattered all the dirt from the exhaust fan on the side before I could vacuum it. This one's perfect. I researched it and Consumer Reports rated it very high. It has great power, settings for bare floors and carpet, it's not too loud and the canister is super easy to empty. The battery lasts a long time. I have a puppy who makes lots of messes and I used it too many times to count before I had to recharge it. Oh, it has a light that tells you the battery life when you turn on the power. Also, and this is probably one of the greatest selling points, The battery comes out of the vac and recharges in a small charger. You don't have to plug in the whole vacuum!

I wanted to pick up some TV stations in our 3rd bedroom without having to pay for another cable box every month. This antenna does that. I have it upstairs and it's by a window, but I had higher expectations for the number of channels I could pick up. I live on a lake so there's no buildings and hardly any trees but I only get about 15 channels. I pick up local Fox and CW, but not the ABC, CBS, NBC I was hoping to get. Anyway, it does keep the TV from just having fuzz on the screen so it's doing its job. It was inexpensive so I'm keeping it.
It was also super easy to set up. I am recommending it because it does pick up the channels. I just may be too far from the towers I want to watch.

I thought I was buying an Apple iPhone charger. It was the Best Buy store brand. (The packaging was really similar to the Apple boxes.) Turns out it works fine. I am happy with this product. And, I probably paid less for it than if I had bought the Apple product.

I bought this for my 16 year old niece. She rated it a 5. She had no comments but she has been playing it almost nonstop since Christmas. I guess that means it's a hit!

I could not get my smart tv sound to come through my surround sound system. Only the cable box and DVD player sound worked. Now, with this cord, it works great. I have Netflix in surround sound. Perfect.

Bought this TV for the master bedroom. It works great. Very easy to set up. Plugged it into the electrical outlet, HDMI ports for cable and DVD player and BOOM; it was ready to go. Great picture and good sound. No need for added sound bar or external speakers. Only drawback is the remote, kinda cheesy. I don't use it unless I'm switching to the DVD player, so that makes up for it. (I like remotes that are backlit.)

Anyone have an answer.
I asked the same question at the store and was told the ONLY difference was the stand.
