What's great about it: Huge capacity, low price
What's not so great: Reformatting took forever
Bought this to help me out of a jam with my old backup device. It's huge capacity helped me backup my old 3TB drive so I could reformat it use it in addition to my new 4TB drive. My iMac has 126,000 pictures on it and needed a back up badly! This drive helped me solve both of these problems!
This product has... Reliable, Included software is not useful, Large capacity/good size
About me... Budget Conscious, Need a simple backup solution
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Grinder built in and alarm lets you set it all up the night before and it's ready in the morning!
What's not so great: Automatic shut off isn't convenient for both our morning routines.
Bought this on sale (50% off) as a gift and my wife was very pleased. Love being able to set it up the night before and have it ready in the morning. Coffee grinder is very quiet too! Only downside is that my wife gets up 2 hours before I do, so I have to reheat coffee when I get up.

What's great about it: Large capacity.
What's not so great: Lint trap is hard for my short wife to reach.
Needed a replacement quick. Got a good deal and it really does the job well. My wife's only complaint is that it's not easy for her to reach the lint trap on top, because she's a bit short.

Surround Sound

The specs indicate that the dvd player has jacks to connect 5.1 surround sound speakers - 2 front, 1 center, 2 rear and a subwoofer, but the pictures don't show the jacks. Can these speakers be connected directly to the dvd player or do I need to go through a receiver?
If you connect your DVD to to your TV with an HDMI cable, it should play in 5.1 surround as long as your TV is correctly connected to your surround sound system.
