To this point, the griddle has only been used for bacon. Once we make some pancakes, I will see if (like our old griddle) it has some hot spots to be aware of. My only slight complaint is that the drip tray is not as large as the one on our old griddle. The first time I used it I tried to tip it forward a little to get the excess grease to drain off of the griddle only to have a grease puddle start to form on the counter. One griddle-full of bacon is enough to fill up the drip tray, so just be careful to empty halfway through, or just avoid trying to pull the thing out while it is full.

We have used this waffle maker 2-3 times now and have been pleased with the results. It's makes decent sized waffles that fit on a plate without hanging over the edge and encouraging the kids to make a mess. They don't need that kind of encouragement. We tend to leave the waffles in a little longer than the indicator light wants us to; we like our waffles crispier. It's not as heavy duty in appearance as some other waffle makers we have looked at, but so far it works just fine.

These cases will do the job, but I doubt they will hold up to much wear and tear. Definitely worth the clearance price, though.

This is my first sound bar purchase. I have no talent for or interest in setting up a full sound system. My wife has no interest in additional wires running around the living room. This seemed a good choice for upgrading our audio and we have been pleased with the results. Set up was easy and quick. The sound is very good, a nice improvement over the TV speakers. It has worked pretty well as a speaker for my phone via bluetooth when I want to listen to some music. The only things keeping it from getting 5 stars are the fact that occasionally the bluetooth connection is a little glitchy. Mostly at the beginning, and then it seems to work pretty well. The other problem is when it occasionally decides not to come on. It's a rare problem, but sometimes it doesn't want to come on. It will work with the Apple TV, but then not for the Blu-Ray player when switched over, or vice versa. Typically I have fixed that by turning everything off and then back on. Not the end of the world, but not something I prefer to deal with. Almost 5 stars. Almost.

I had another stereo like this one that I had used to transfer tapes and albums to CD, but it stopped working (disk drawer stuck). I needed a replacement to continue these projects and this was the selection I finally settled on. The record player works just fine. The speakers may not be quite as nice as my previous model, but they are acceptable. The difference is how you transfer the tapes/albums. I'm not sure if the description was completely clear or not (I had looked at SEVERAL choices before deciding), but I thought that this model also recorded directly to a CD like my old model. It does not. You have to run a cable (included) to your computer and record a file to it. The software is included. It's a little trickier than I would prefer, but usable. It is also time consuming to split the record side A or B files into individual tracks, but I hope to figure out the best way to do it soon.
Overall, this is a decent piece of equipment. It was priced well which is why I went with it in the first place. I just wish my older, simpler model was still functioning.

I had wanted to add to my collection for years, and when I saw the price drop so significantly, I finally went for it. Great series. The interviews of the actual soldiers are the high points. Emotion packed. Digital downloads included. Great value.

NETGEAR - Powerline 200 Mini Ethernet Adapters (2-Pack) - White
These NETGEAR Powerline 200 XAVB1301100PAS mini adapters plug into most power outlets, so you can easily extend Ethernet network connectivity throughout your home, delivering Web access to desktops, gaming consoles and other devices.
How many adapters can be used at once?
If you already have a pair of these in use, can another pair be used only as "receivers" and/or combined with other power line adapters? I'd like to set up another wired, and one wired/wireless hub
Yes.
The first set has one adapter to connect to the modem/router and one to connect a device. I had to buy a second set because I had 2 devices that I needed to hook up, and I didn't realize that I would only be able to use one adapter from the first set.
Both adapters that are used to hook up devices (one from the first set and one from the second) are working fine. Just plug it in like the first one. And I have one more adapter ready to use when needed.

To my understanding and experience using the products in our house, the distance itself doesn't matter. The first adapter is connected to the modem/router via ethernet and to a power outlet (not a surge protector). The next adapter is plugged into an outlet near your device and connected via ethernet cable. It works through the house's electrical system. That's what "boosts" or transmits the signal. As long as you have an outlet, you can have signal. I bought a second set so that I could have a second device with ethernet internet access.
They all work fine.
