I wanted to run my HDMI cables up through the wall and this cable does the job. I am viewing some 4K content that this cable performs well. It’s reasonably flexible that’s important for in-wall installations. A good buy!

I purchase this ice maker to go in my Whirlpool 10.6 cubic foot refrigerator. Fortunately I had the Geek crew install it since I never would have got it watching the guy with 19 years of experience struggle. The issue was more with the fridge where you had to carefully remove the freezer’s back wall to expose the wiring harness. It took two visits to figure this out but once installed the ice maker works fine.

We purchased this refrigerator to replace a larger fridge that was older for our bar area. The doors had to be reversed since we needed left hinged doors. It took the the Geek installers some time but they accomplished it. The instructions are too generic covering a wide range of refrigerators so your not quite sure what applies. The freezer is large but full size ice trays wouldn’t allow the door to close-you have to turn them sideways. The temperate for the refrigerator set at normal froze the bottled water set in the back of the space. I’m running the fridge now set slightly below normal and the temperature is now correctly at 38 degrees. The look of the fridge is modern and the black color compliments the other appliances.

I’ve got both my washer and dryer connected to my WiFi now but I’m not sure how useful it will be. If I open the app after starting the machines I’ll start getting texts letting me know the status of the machines...if I don’t connect, there’s no messages. We bought the dongles so my wife would be alerted when the cycles are completed. If I can get her to use the app this goal would be accomplished. So we’ll see how useful the connectivity will be...

We’ve had a couple of Amazon Dots for a while and thought we’d try the larger Echo. Wow, what a difference! When Alexa speaks, the room almost shakes. Music played over this fills the room with its 360 degree speaker system. Glad we got it.

We’ve got some old tapes that we’d enjoy listening to if available digitally so I purchased this cassette player to to that. It connects easily via a USB cable but has the RCA connectors if you’d like to go “old school”. The power of this player is a free download software called Audacity for recording what’s played on the cassette to the computer. iTunes completes the process to make the tape available as a CD. There are YouTube videos showing how to do this. Happy we got this.

We’re enjoying this i7 computer with a huge, in-your-face screen. The disk drive tray seems a bit flimsy - we’ll have to take care not to damage it. The hard drive will be plenty large enough to store our documents and photos. HP appears to be supporting the product well with plenty of updates.

We finally made the investment for this mixer that we’ve wanted for awhile. We’re very happy with the unit that included 3 attachments for mixing and a diverter collar that I couldn’t imagine being without.

This TV mount works well but it has to be securely mounted to the wall since when close to the wall there is quite a bit of torsion on the base of the arm. I mounted mine on aluminum studs and struggled to secure it such that the TV didn’t rotate.

Does this model 24ECKMF include all the parts needed for complete installation and use? Please describe what's included in the installation kit?
Yes. It includes the hardware, the unit itself, hoses and the ice tray. The tricky part of the installation is you have to break the seal on the back panel to retrieve the water outlet. My installers had to come back twice after finally figuring this out.

Is it easy to remove TV from stand? We live in an RV and need to take the TV down when we travel.
