Purchased this to replace the modem TWC provided as a rental mainly to not have to keep paying the $10 extra per month to rent theirs. This modem works better than the one they provided! Very fast, never crashes, and was easy to set up!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Purchased this for my mother to back up her business files as she had neglected to do any kind of back up before. The computer she used for the business needed to be reset and I convinced her to pick up a hard drive, this fit her budget and had more than enough room to back up all of her files! Extremely easy to use, very durable, and a great value!

This stand has a very flexible set up and looks sharp any way you use it! The wood accents give a warmer feeling to the glass and metal. Very stable and durable, fairly easy to assemble, and very nice to look at!

I now have 2 of these and one of the original Chromecast, the addition of dual band (2.4 and 5 GHz) wireless is an amazing feature! I recently picked up another for my mother who recently ditched cable for the first time and she learned how to use it in less than five minutes! The availability of apps that work with Chromecast is huge and the ones that don't, you can "cast" your screen to make them work!

We were looking to replace our fridge from 10 years ago to match our new dishwasher and update the look and efficiency of our food storage. This fridge kept drawing us back to it time and time again! The water and ice dispenser in the door was an absolute must and having the entire ice maker IN the door itself opens up so much more room in the freezer! This feature is absolutely amazing and I don't think I'd be able to go back to having anything else! I absolutely would recommend this to anyone looking for an excellent side by side refrigerator at a great value!

At first I perched an HP laptop with an Intel i5 and 4 GBs of RAM but that proved to not be able to handle what I needed and I took a second look at this system. This laptop is very powerful, has a great display, long battery life, 4K video and 7.1 surround output, back-lit keyboard, and a very responsive touchscreen! The initial setup and updates might frustrate you at first but I implore you to remain patient as after this is complete, you will be extremely happy with how efficient and fast this system is! I went in the store expecting the web price of $559 and was ecstatic when it was tagged/range up at $439! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a light desktop replacement laptop that also happens to be a 2 in 1!

The laptop is well built, nice display, great processor, but the 4 GBs of RAM is soldered into the board and there's no way to expand it. I returned it after running tests with various video streaming and game services. This would be a perfect laptop for a student or someone who occasionally multi-tasks but not as a full desktop replacement system.

The biggest thing I was looking for in a receiver was excellent sound quality and the ability to scale all of my video sources to at least 1080p. My final decision for to go with this receiver came when I listened to it in store head to head against the Onkyo 646, Denon 2200/4100, Marantz, and Yamaha 679. This receiver blew all the other away in sound quality the number of features it had available. Setup was fairly simple with a great on screen menu to walk through. Wireless work great and the OSD for volume scales to an appropriate size based on the resolution of the input. I would definitely recommend this receiver, especially at the price I got it on sale at $499!

I had been checking out this television for months before purchasing it. I had originally gone on Black Friday for a Samsung model that was an ad special but had seen this was on sale as well. The set works great with an excellent picture, the only drawback to it is the lack of inputs. This was easily fixed for me since I have a high end AV receiver that handles all of the HDMI and other AV needs.

Water filter

Typically, how often does the water filter need to be changed?
About every six months but it does vary based on usage. If you rarely use the water in the door you could possibly push it to a year. There is also a warning light on the door that will tell you when it needs to be replaced, which is a very nice feature!

Add storage to your compatible device with this SanDisk Ultra Plus microSDXC memory card that features a 64GB capacity for ample space to hold your photos and videos. The rugged design resists damage caused by water, shock, extreme temperatures and more.
 

Will it work with my Samsung Galaxy S4?

The Samsung Galaxy S4 info says it supports the FAT and the exFat file system. Will the SanDisk Ultra Plus micro SDXC UHS-I card work in my phone?
Yes it will, if it does not mount right away (phone doesn't see it or claims an error), connect it to your computer and make sure it's formatted correctly for your device. It almost certainly should just plug in and work.
