I was hesitant in purchasing this QLED 75" Q7F television, but after bringing it home, WOW! - What a difference compared to what I had before. Even with the XBOX X which has a 4K calibration function, I could not get the dynamics with the old TV I had, but this one, black is black and makes a huge difference.
Warning: If you plan to pick it up yourself, it cannot be layed down and must be transported standing up or it will break. The screen has some flex to it which is most likely why. The 75" is quite heavy and wasn't expecting that, but the stand works on most tables since it is a center stand. Enjoy if you decide to buy one.

NETGEAR - Nighthawk X4S Wireless-AC Dual-Band Wi-Fi Router

Where I'm at, we have Spectum, previously BrightHouse network, and with a Linksys router I had nothing but troubles, loss of connection, on this network. It always appeared as DNS error because internet addresses weren't being resolved. Their DNS server isn't speedy and has issues that I can tell, but they won't admit to it.
Fortunately, the Netgear router (and my Netgear modem) manages that delay sufficiently that I have no issues anymore unlike the competition model that also had other issues with Wifi connectivity and stability. I have none anymore. I also bought a Netgear extender and it's working great. I am very pleased with my NETGEAR - Nighthawk X4S and would highly recommend it

I bought multiple and returned while in the store because Sony (who else!) did not include the Ultraviolet code for your digital copy.
Even their rewards points have expired and want to make you mail it a bunch stupid mail to get the points.
Now, the movie itself, it's an awesome action movie.

5.0
I did research for trying to find the over the air type DVR and this Tivo Romio is the best out there. Also know that the features it offers as part of the lifetime subscription you get with it, is well worth it. This one has 4 tuners so you can record all primetime channels (ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX) and as long as you get good reception, it works extremely well. Skipping commercials is a breeze!!.
The one beef (con) I have is that when you initially set it up to scan the channels it receives, that it adds SO MANY channels you can't view or watch. You have to manually go back in and remove them without knowing which ones are good and which are bad. That's a pain, but once you're passed that, nothing out there compares to what it can do for you. The guide is amazing and the OnePass setup for recording your favorite shows is also great.

This is a cheaply constructed antenna. Has no amplification, poor réception, no cable to reach the location you're going to mount to. Absolutely disappointed and is not worth it's value whatsoever. A rabbit ear antenna will work just as good for a 1/4 of the price. Returned it and would not recommend. The grill you serves no purpose except to hold the pieces.

Great Espresso Machine
Customer Rating
4.0
Having owned an "el cheapo" espresso machine before this was a giant leap because it's certainly a lot more expensive and a hard decision to make. For good espresso you need both a good coffee grinder and a good espresso machine that can handle the bar pressure needed to get that crema out of the coffee.
This machine does both and I feel that I did a good decision in trying it.
If you are an experienced espresso coffee maker, this should be easy, but a semi-newbie like me, it took some time to get it right where I like it.
Don't expect to make your perfect espresso at the first try!! You will need to play with the machine's adjustments to make your coffee as it should be.
I do hate the fact that to get the proper amount of grind, it will build a mountain and overflow. Apparently that's normal, but you can also do it two steps if you want and DON'T skimp on the amount of coffee you must put in there or you won't get the results you need.
Love the fact that it comes with a tamper already. The steamer works great and easy to clean if you do it right away!!.
Watch videos, over and over, to learn the what to do and not do.
I use the Starbucks Espresso (white bad) coffee bean and the Italian Roast (brown bag) which are both my favorite.
Expect small amount of coffee, not a cup full. it is an espresso and very concentrated.
I would recommend this machine for the step up or anyone who loves Americanos, lattes, straight espresso, etc...
It simplifies the need for an additional grinder where you should spend at least $200-$300 anyway.
So if you've been waiting to make that decision, do it. I don't regret it so far since I now have it for a month. Noise level is reasonable as you would expect from a coffee grinder.
Ok... time for coffee now that I've talked about it

Worked 2 hours with Brighthouse network to get my modem working the first time after they elevated the issue and it worked fine for 3 days until I restarted the modem. Lost connection and had the same issue that took them 2hours to get going. Called them again and my router wouldn't get a IP address from the modem. Decided to simply return it and bought the Netgear which took 15 mins with them on the phone to setup and has been solid since. I was expecting more from a Motorola prodcut.

can the barista be hooked up to a hot water line?
No, not the way it is designed. it's not designed for commercial use. Even if you found a way to modify it, I don't know if it would work with a pressure water system as opposed to gravity feed.

Does it have two kinds of filter baskets one larger and one smaller?
Yes, it actually has 4 baskets. Two for espresso and two for regular ground coffee. Each type have a single and double shot/dose. I only use the double because that's the quantity of coffee I drink %99 of the time.
