Excellent vaccuum for maintenance cleaning. If I use it at least twice a week, it's effective. If I go too long, though, this little thing can't handle it. However, it makes keeping up with dog hair on hardwood floors a breeze. Just don't expect it to pick up larger debris.

It gives me a blue screen of death (BSOD) every so often. The wifi card seems to have gone bad after 2 years. Other than that, it handles graphics surprising well and does what it needs to do. We probably ask it to do too much for a cheap rig.

Splurged a little on this blending after a cheap $15 blender died. I was making smoothies daily after my workouts. This blender handles them very nicely. Sometimes I have to run it on "blend" mode twice to get all the banana chunks out. I've also made salsa and a taco sauce using the other attachments, and it worked great! Overall, it's a terrific mid-range blender.
Unfortunately the unit died after 11 months of use. I contacted Ninja, and they sent out a replacement base, didn't even ask for the old one back. So far, it's continuing to work well. We'll see what happens in May when this one is 11 months old...

Design/style is great, love the notifications and connection to the phone. However, the display fails eventually. We've had 4 between my husband and i, and all started failing the same way at different times. Best Buy allowed us to exchange for the newer model.

I had hoped to buy the Toshiba 55 inch on sale for Black Friday for $350, but it was sold out so after some research, I went with the Samsung. For the price on Black Friday online, this is a very good deal. It's not the absolute best picture around (there is some jigger, but at least the soap opera effect can be shut off), but it's mostly not noticeable. I think it really depends on the video source.
I've played video games (The Witcher 3 on PS4) and watched HD cable television, and both display vivid colors. The size is great - I went from a 42 inch to this, and it really does fit my living room arrangements much better.
Screen mirroring is a cool feature - works flawlessly with both my Windows 10 laptop and my Galaxy S6 smartphone.

It's not as fast as I hoped it would be in my DLSR, but it is a little faster when downloading pictures from the card to my PC. It might work better on a newer device, but for me the speed difference really isn't worth the extra money over the standard SDHC cards.

I still use a DLSR that uses CompactFlash, and had another brand of reader that broke recently - a pin actually bent and fell out. This multi-format reader is able to read my CompactFlash cards and it does so much faster than my older device. Glad I can still find these!

Display malfunction

How do I get mine replaced or repaired
If it's less than 1 year old, contact Garmin directly. They'll replace it if you have a display problem.

how do I show power point & Word presentations with sound on a smart TV ??

Do I need a cable from lap top to TV ??
It depends on your laptop. If it can share the screen wirelessly (through Screen Mirror), the audio will connect wirelessly as well. Screen Mirror shows up as another input option, like HDMI. I have a Windows 10 laptop that I bought last year and it works well on this TV.

You should also be able to connect your laptop with an HDMI cable, which transmits both sound and video. Just be sure to select the right HDMI source on your TV. Your laptop should send both audio and video automatically once connected.
