The Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop combines an ultra-powerful vacuum with Sonic Mopping for a complete clean from start to finish. Featuring Matrix Clean, the robot cleans in a precision grid taking multiple passes from multiple angles over debris ensuring no spots are missed on all your carpets and floors. Using Matrix Clean, the vacuum delivers 30% better carpet cleaning*and 50% better stain cleaning** (*vs. RV2610WD single pass tested on level loop sand, **vs. RV2001WD). Engineered to pick up more pet hair with its self-cleaning brushroll, this robot vacuum leaves no cleaning detail unmet. It even cleans edges and corners with CleanEdge Technology using blasts of air to pull debris into its cleaning path. The robot's intelligent navigation features precision home mapping and object detection. With Precision Home Mapping, the robot uses it’s 360° LiDAR vision quickly and accurately maps your home so your robot can methodically clean detecting and avoiding objects in its path, day, or night (*objects 4.5 inches or greater in its path), adapting to everyday changes in the home. When low on battery, the robot can return to its base, recharge, and pickup cleaning where it left off. Set a cleaning schedule, initiate on-demand cleaning, or activate Matrix Clean, all with sound of your voice using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Utilize the app to set custom carpet and no-go zones for complete control of where the robot cleans and doesn’t clean.

I’ve owned several different models of robot vacuums. They’ve all let me down. Granted, they were all dumb robots, meaning they weren’t guided by lasers. I was hoping this Shark vacuum with it’s AI and laser mapping would be the one to change my mind on robot vacuums. While this one impresses me in its capabilities and smarts, it is still plagued by issues - some of which come with owning a wide variety of smart home products and having 5 GHz internet. But make no mistake, as a vacuum or even mop, it’s pretty darn good. So long as you come in with tempered expectations, I think you’ll enjoy this vacuum/mop. But if you think this will replace all vacuuming/mopping and you can just let this vacuum do its thing without any intervention from you, you’ll be disappointed.
IN THE BOX
Inside the package you get the base station, which plugs into the wall, a circular plastic disc that attaches to the base station and is what the vacuum sits on when it’s charging. You’ll get the vacuum, of course, two side brushes (one is extra), the water tank and two mopping pads as well as a small bottle of floor cleaner.

SETUP AND GETTING READY TO VACUUM AND MOP
The first thing to do is to set up where you want the base station. There’s no warning that “X” amount of space is between the charging station and a wall. (some have such requirements). The charging station plate snaps into the charger, and then you plug that into the wall and that’s about it. There’s a lot of blue tape to remove before getting started, but the dustbin is already inside. You do have to snap on the side brush, which is easy to do.

That’s the easy part of the setup. The next step is to download the Shark app and register an account. Finding and registering the robot was easy. And I thought the app did a terrific job walking you through all these steps.
MAPPING YOUR HOUSE AND “NO GO” ZONES
After the robot is registered and charged, the first step (which you can skip) is to let it roam around your house and map it. It took about 30 minutes, but when it was done, I was shocked at how accurate the map was. After that’s done, you can assign rooms which permits you to clean one or two rooms at a time (using your voice and/or app).

After that’s done, you can assign rooms which permits you to clean one or two rooms at a time (using your voice and/or app).
From there, the next step is to setup “no-go zones”. These are areas like cords on the ground, maybe a pet food container, basically everywhere you don’t want a robot banging into things. You do this by creating boxes on the app, using the map it created. I found the process pretty easy, it’s a little finicky as you have to zoom in when adjusting the size of a box in some instances to really fine tune it.
From there, now you have to map out where your carpets are so when your mopping, the robot doesn’t drag a wet scrubbing pad on your carpet. The process is similar to creating no go zones - with the difference being that when vacuuming, your robot will still go over your carpets vs. no go zones, where the robot will never go. However, after you create the carpet zones, you have to (again, you could skip it, but I advise against doing so) let the robot go around the areas you blocked off to make sure it follows along the rug, not driving over it. For rooms with carpet this is simple, but area rugs are finicky. I found this to be a long process. I’d create the zone of a runner rug, and then have the vacuum drive around it. It would be too far away sometimes, and drive over the edge of the rug on other instances. I’d have to wait for it to be done exploring, then redo the box based on what I saw, and try again. It’s definitely a process of trial and error. Multiply that by several area rugs, and you have a time intensive process.
After that’s done, you’re pretty much ready to go. I recommend scheduling your robot to run on it’s own - that’s what it’s for, to automate your life. And that is pretty easy to do on the app.
VACUUMING
I don’t have any complaints with the vacuuming power. First, it’s not very loud, compared to other robots I’ve used. Second, it does a great job of picking things up, even along baseboards. It still will get caught up with cords, I had a couple errors that required me to create no go zones where it kept sucking up cords near one wall in my house, but that was expected for me in figuring out what works best. The dust bin isn’t too too big, and I admit, I had to empty it every few days, so I was wishing I had the automatic emptying bin. But nonetheless, every few days isn’t that bad. And honestly, after the first few runs, it picks up less and less as it does a good job of maintenance vs. letting a lot of dust and pet hair accumulate.

MOPPING
I had the impression that I could hit a button and this thing would either mop or vacuum or even both at the same time. Wrong. In order to activate the mopping, you have to fill up the water canister (and add the floor cleaning solution) and then slide it into the back of the vacuum. Not the biggest deal in the world, but a bit of a letdown. Now I have to have a place to keep the water tank and remember to put it on.

Not the biggest deal in the world, but a bit of a letdown. Now I have to have a place to keep the water tank and remember to put it on.
The mopping on my hardwood floors was great though. No complaints. And it avoided my carpets after putting in the time and effort to create carpet zones. It can’t mop the entire first floor of my house, however, with one fill up. That was another slight disappointment. The bigger concern for me, at least in terms of costs, was knowing that I would need more cleaning solution. I always knew I would have to buy more, but I feel like it’s more than I anticipated. But I would also be spending money on other floor cleaning solutions so honestly it’s a bit of a wash. (pun intended).
QUIRKS AND ISSUES
As I said, as a vacuum and mop, it performs well. But I’ve run into issues, some of which might be specific to me, but I don’t know. I find the app to be unresponsive, it doesn’t send me notifications when the vacuum gets stuck or needs to be emptied. I have to open the app and then it refreshes, then I can check all my notifications. I have a Samsung phone and every other app sends me more notifications than I can stand, so I don’t know why this doesn’t work. It doesn’t have obstacle detection - which I think only the really high end models have - which means that you have to keep the house relatively clean and not leaving things around for it to get caught on. I also had problems with the bumper - the app told me the bumper was stuck. At that time, it had only ran once or twice so I was a bit flummoxed. It’s happened twice and I don’t know what caused it or how to stop it from happening. And the vacuum will just stop what it’s doing. And I don’t get a notification to tell me when it happens (most of the time it runs when I’m at work, so it’s not like I could have done anything about it when it does happen, but still).

I use Google Home. I, for the life of me, cannot get the vacuum recognized on Google Home. The Shark Clean app is there, but the Home app tells me I don’t have any devices. This isn’t a huge deal since I schedule cleanings within the app, but it does take away the ability to say “Hey Google, clean the kitchen.” Not the end of the world, but still annoying as I like to sync all my many different type of smart home products in the Home app.
CONCLUSION
This is one of the best performing robot vacuum and mops I’ve used. The AI smarts and laser mapping is awesome, and accurate. It allows you to really fine tune your cleaning to help avoid issues like running into things it shouldn’t, or getting caught on things. But it requires a lot of upfront work. It also requires additional work for the mopping and cleaning out the dustbin regularly. It’s things you likely do when using traditional vacuums and mops, but I’ve always wanted robot vacuums to be autonomous and require little maintenance. For the day-to-day cleaning, and say, mopping on the weekend, it’s pretty great.

Great printer for small business/home office. Finally, print cartridges that don’t cost more than the printer itself. This is a terrific all around printer that can handle high volume scans and print. The color printing looks great and the speed is spot on. It’s perfect for small business/home office use. Plus, it’s easy to setup and operate, perfect for those who might be a little intimidated with setting up a printer.
IN THE BOX
You get the printer, a power cable, ink cartridges (more on these in a moment) and an instructional manual. I wish it came with a USB cable, but given that it’s primarily billed as a Wi-Fi printer, so I understand it. But USB is the easiest way to get setup and going immediately.

SETUP
The instructional manual takes you to the Epson app. So, after plugging in the power and turning it on, you download the app and it walks you through it. THe app you download is the Epson Smart Panel. It’s fine, but like most Epson apps (if you’ve ever used them) it’s a bit outdated. When you get the app going, my phone found the printer pretty quickly, and then there was like an automatic chat feature that walked me through the process. The app tells you what to do (i.e. install the ink cartridges) and gives you the option of “showing you” via videos if you’re unsure what to do. It made the process really simple.

At some point, the app tells you to go to the touchscreen to complete the alignment. This is a 5-10 minute process where the printer prints out several sheets of paper and you input which options were properly aligned. It’s dead simple to do to ensure proper printing.
At this point, your printer should be connected to your Wi-Fi. You could plug in USB to your computer for direct connection, but there’s really no need. I can’t speak to Mac computers, but if you open up the Printers in Windows setting, search for printers, and as long as you’re on the same Wi-Fi as the printer, you should easily find it. From there, you’re set to print. To get scanning features, however, you have to install the Epson Scan software on your computer. This will require some internet search, but you can find it easily. Once it’s installed, you’re able to use the touchscreen on the printer and scan to your computer.
EASE OF USE/PERFORMANCE
First, the performance. I printed a 20+ page black and white document and while I didn’t time the speed in which it printed, I was really satisfied with the speed. The speed dropped when inserting some color documents, but the speed was negligible. Bottom line is that printing speed and quality is not an issue.

In terms of scanning documents, I was pleased with the speed and accuracy. On the top of the printer is a document feeder that allows you to scan multi page documents. I didn’t test the limits of how many pages it could hold and scan at one time, but I easily scanned a 30 page document. I’m guessing it could hold about 50. Even if you scanned pages in batches, the Epson software allows you to add scanned pages before saving the final document. The scans came in straight despite the volume of pages scanned.
If you’re scanning a single page, or say a photo, where quality is crucial, you can lift the lid and place a document on the glass scanner. This also applies for papers that aren’t 8.5 x 11. Other than lifting the lid, the process is the same, when you hit scan the Epson software opens on your computer and you can save it where you want from there.
FEATURES/MISC
I want to mention a few other things - first being ink. I own an Epson Ecotank. The features in that model are very similar to this Workforce printer. The only difference is the ink. The Ecotank is my favorite printer because the ink is cheap and the tanks hold a lot and print a lot of pages before needing to be refilled. Bottom line, it’s efficient and cheap to replace ink. So, I was a bit concerned about this printer requiring cartridges. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see how relatively cheap the cartridges are. Clearly, you’re saving money on this model vs. the Ecotank, and it’s nice to see Epson isn’t overcharging you on replacement ink. But I do have some issue with the cartridges that come with this printer. They’re labeled as “charging” cartridges, meant for charging the printing head. And then there’s a warning that you might not get as much printing out of these cartridges as replacement ones. It’s not a huge deal given the relatively low cost of replacement ink, but I’m still waiting for companies to deliver the XL ink cartridges in the box and making them the “only” ones you can buy.

Printing from your phone. This is important to me. Sometimes I get something on my phone that I need to print. It’s much easier just printing from my phone than to email it to myself, then log into my computer and print from there. I can’t speak to Apple devices, but I am operating on a Windows computer and Android phone. There’s two ways to print from your phone, one, you can add your printer to Google Printing services (which I didn’t do) and the other is from the Epson app itself. In fact, the Epson app, for its visual flaws, is pretty robust and easy to understand. You can pretty much do anything from your phone, scanning/printing. Again, I was impressed at how easy it was to do.
CONCLUSION
If you have the option, I would recommend the Epson Ecotank over the workforce because of the cheaper ink. But this is a competitively priced printer with relatively cheap ink in its own right. Not to mention that it has the same features as similar Epson Ecotank products. This is a great business printer that handles all your small business/home office needs.

My new favorite headphones

For the longest time, I was married to Bose headphones. Then Sony came along and they became my go to. Now, with the Sennheiser Momentum 4, I have a new favorite set of cans. To be honest, we really are talking about a difference in degrees. All three of these brands sound great and have really good noise canceling. So I look to design, features, ease of use, and most importantly, comfort. The Sony XM5’s were my favorite, but the Momentum 4’s have supplanted them. While the audio quality is frankly, similar, the Momentum 4 wins on value and comfort (although the Sony cans are comfortable to wear).
IN THE BOX
Inside the box you have the travel case. The case is plenty sturdy to be thrown into your backpack without worries that they’ll get crushed. It has a nice zipper that’s enclosed tightly in fabric (so it won’t get damaged) and holds everything you need. Inside the case are the headphones, airplane two prong adapter (people still use these?) an aux cable to plug directly into an AUX port and a USB-C charging cable (thank you for the latter). And everything has its place in the case which keeps everything organized and there when you need it.

The ear cups also have stickers on them with the touch controls, which I think is great. You can of course read the manual, but it’s nice just seeing the controls right there on the headphones itself while you learn to use them.
SETUP AND THE APP
When I took them out of the case for the first time, they automatically turned on and went into pairing mode. My Samsung phone immediately asked me to pair them. I can’t recall such a seamless Bluetooth pairing process. In any event, the process is like any other; once they’re on, you hold the power button for approximately 5 seconds to put it in pairing mode.

I then downloaded the Sennheiser “Smart Control” app. (after the headphones were connected). The first thing I was prompted to do was to update the firmware. Which should come as a shock to no one, as most devices nowadays require a day one firmware download. But the process was relatively seamless and only took about 10 minutes.
The app has a nice and easy to understand interface. There’s the equalizer where you can adjust the bass, mids, and trebles. There are about 6 different Sennheiser presets (or you can create up to 3 custom presets). There’s also an option for “Bass Boost” and a “Podcast” mode that enhances vocal clarity. I could tell a difference with the podcast mode, but it requires you to go into the app to change the setting each time and is too much of a hassle (not to mention I forget to do it).
You can also adjust the active noise cancellation. There’s only 3 options, Off, Auto and Max. I just leave mine on Auto. I even leave it on “adaptive” so it adapts to my surroundings. Lastly, a feature I wish more over the ear headphones would incorporate is “sidetone.” For those that don’t know, sidetone is the ability to hear yourself. It’s helpful when wearing noise canceling headphones especially, because it is sometimes difficult to hear how loud you’re talking.
SOUND QUALITY/PHONE CALL QUALITY
Look, if you’ve used a new model of Bose or Sony headphones, you can expect a similar level of sound quality. These headphones have rich bass, and crisp mids and highs. They really sound terrific. Whether it’s classical, hip-hip, or podcasts, I was more than satisfied with the sound quality.

Making phone calls is arguably where these outshine the competition. Primarily in the sidetone arena, being able to hear yourself talk when speaking to someone on the phone. I had no complaints how I sounded to others, and I certainly heard the person whom I was talking to with great clarity.
OTHER FEATURES/NAVIGATION
The navigation is similar to the Sony headphones, where the cans are touch sensitive. You can swipe up and down to adjust volume, left and right to go back and forward on song selections and you can even pinch (like zooming in on your phone) to adjust the noise canceling. It’s easy to learn and nothing that hasn’t been done before. What I really appreciate is the auto off and on feature. Sony has a feature where when you take the headphones off your head (to say, talk to someone) the music pauses. The Momentum 4s take it to the next level. I never turn them physically on and off, I just put them on my head and they turn on and automatically connect to my phone. Obviously hitting a button to turn them on is no big deal, but this is a nice touch.

Obviously hitting a button to turn them on is no big deal, but this is a nice touch.
The noise cancellation is pretty good. I’m not qualified to say whether it’s “better” than Sony or Bose offerings, but I know that it can drown out children playing at a park (the noisiest place I could find to test it).
Last, comfort. The Sony XM5s have been my favorite set of over the ear headphones, primarily because of the comfort. What I mean by comfort is the feeling you get that you’re not wearing them, and they don’t cause any pressure or discomfort from wearing them for long periods at a time. I’ll admit, my ears do get hot after wearing them for a long time, but that’s just me wearing any set of over the ear headphones. Eventually my ears get hot and I perspire around the cushions; after wearing them for an extended period of time.
CONCLUSION
Honestly, if you’re in the market for ANC headphones, the Momentum 4s should be on your short list Especially at their price point. The sound quality and noise cancellation is on par if not better than the household names of Sony and Bose and Beats. I’ve been really impressed with them, and for reasons that are hard to explain, they’ve become my go to over the ear headphones. Plus they have consistently performed well, they’ve been extremely reliable in connecting to my phone, pairing new devices, and simply overall comfort.

I record a lot of interviews, record local sporting events and music gigs. I primarily use my Canon EOS M6 Mark ii (due to its compact size) and the built-in microphone. I usually used a handheld recorder to record audio from interviews, which required some extra editing. This JOBY Wavo Pro Microphone came to my attention and I thought it would be a great way to improve my sound quality while limiting the editing of separate audio and video tracks. I can say that in most instances the microphone performed well, but the inability to connect to the app and adjust the EQ settings was a problem. I do, however, want to note that I’m not entirely certain that I would have used the app to adjust the settings, but I’m sure a number of people buying would like to, and the inability to connect to one’s phone to do so makes this difficult to recommend.
IN THE BOX
The packaging is compact and includes the microphone, a USB charging cable, an audio cable to connect the microphone to your camera, and a fuzzy wind screen. There's also a simple instructional pamphlet that's helpful and easy to understand.

SETTING UP
I'm speaking as, and to, first time users of an external book microphone. This microphone attaches to the shoe of your camera. It's a "dumb" shoe, meaning no power goes to the microphone from your camera. So you can attach it to another device/mount that might have multiple shoes (for lights) without issue. It slides in and you turn the dial to tighten it in place. The microphone has its own battery, which is both a negative and positive. The primary downside is that it requires you to charge it, vs. the microphone getting power from the camera. But that also means it doesn't draw on camera. The audio cable then plugs into the microphone and into the microphone input on the camera. It's corded which keeps it short but it has plenty of stretch to make the connection.

The audio cable then plugs into the microphone and into the microphone input on the camera. It's corded which keeps it short but it has plenty of stretch to make the connection.
Once it’s attached to the camera, you then turn on the camera by holding the large power button. You simply need to hold it for just a second. The large light then turns green. From there, you’re ready to go. Now, of course, you can change the settings by increasing the gain (by switch) or switch to mono (the button above the power button is where you do this). There’s also a secondary port that allows for a lavalier microphone. (which I admittedly haven’t tested because I don’t have one).
You’ll notice that there’s a Bluetooth button. That’s meant to connect the microphone to your phone to adjust the EQ levels on your phone. The pamphlet tells you to turn the microphone Bluetooth on (and after downloading the app) and through the app and connect the microphone through there. I was unable to connect the microphone, but more on that below.
PERFORMANCE
I tested this by recording myself talking with and without the JOBY microphone plugged in. I also recorded my friend’s band at a local restaurant. I found the microphone to perform best, or in other words, justify the purchase, when operating in a noisy environment. When I was in a quiet room, I couldn’t tell any difference in audio quality when I was talking between the built-in microphone and the JOBY microphone. In fact, I’m not so certain I preferred the JOBY microphone in that instance. When speaking directly towards the microphone, the difference in audio quality was negligible. If you were filming from behind the camera, with the JOBY microphone plugged in, you can barely hear yourself. Now granted, this microphone is meant to record you filming yourself; it’s not meant to be filming something while narrating.

Now, outside or in a noisy room, that’s where the JOBY microphone shines. I recorded myself in a loud restaurant and the noise cancellation was terrific, in some respects, almost too good. It sounded like I was in an empty room. When filming my friend’s band, it sounded terrific. It didn’t sound as good as recording from the instruments themselves, but it was nonetheless great quality. And it did a great job blocking out sound that you did not intend to record.
SOME QUIRKS
I have a couple of complaints, the primary is the app. I have a Samsung Galaxy Fold Z3 and simply couldn’t connect the microphone to the app. I made sure I downloaded the correct Wavo app from Google Play. And the instructions tell you to pair the microphone through the app (vs. your phone’s settings). But it just wouldn’t connect, and without connecting the microphone the app doesn’t do anything other than connecting you to the store to purchase more JOBY products. Now, I admit, I’m no audio aficionado, so I typically just keep the settings on default. But still, I was disappointed I couldn’t tweak it. And I’m certain that others who are looking for this ability would be disappointed. But granted, it could be my phone, I’m not really sure of what caused the problem.

The microphone itself isn’t too big, but it’s not small. I don’t think this is an issue, I’ve seen other microphones that go into hotshoes to be bigger. But for those who’ve never used one, it does add some size to your rig. But the weight is no problem. My issue was with flipping my screen around so I could see myself while filming. But this isn’t an issue with the microphone necessarily, it’s an issue with my camera. The viewing screen flips up by default (where others might flip to the side). When the JOBY microphone was in my shoe (it could be anything there honestly) it prevented me from flipping the screen up to view while filming myself. In other words, I’m filming blind. Holding my camera at hands length it’s not the end of the world for me, as it’s generally easy to keep yourself in the frame, but it’s still a bummer. My get around was to purchase a device on Amazon that has several cold shoes that go around the side of the camera. (I know that’s a bad verbal description). But it allows me to put the microphone on the side freeing up the space to flip the screen up.
CONCLUSION
This is a microphone meant for recording yourself or others talking. It can capture great audio of anything in front of you, but it won’t capture sound behind you. For the most part, that’s all you really want to capture. But it captures great quality audio especially in noisier environments. If you record in a quiet studio, you might find it unnecessary (depending on the quality of the built-in microphone). But the troubles with the app could be a dealbreaker and make it hard to recommend. Again, a lot of that depends on your competency level of adjusting EQs, I’m not so it’s not a real problem for me, but something to consider when purchasing an expensive microphone.

I am no electrician, so as a normal consumer, I get a little confused with the numbers that are associated with fast charging USB-C devices. As a phone charger, this device can’t be beat; it’s the first charger I’ve used that showed super fast charging. I’ve charged two devices at once (one was a Windows laptop) and it charged both, relatively quickly. But, depending on your computer (I can’t speak to Macbooks) there are some limitations. But what really impressed me was that this wasn’t your typical Insignia “budget” item. It is a quality charger and cable.
IN THE BOX
The packaging is small, it includes the charger, which is pretty small, given what’s inside, but larger than what you think of in terms of a phone charger. Think Apple Macbook charging brick but only two thirds the size. You also get a pretty nice 8 foot long USB-C to USB-C charging cable. Nice, insomuch as it’s braided and durable. That’s it. There’s a little pamphlet about how the charging works, but speaking as someone with relatively little understanding of wattage, it was a bit confusing. I understand it in theory, but I just don’t memorize what my devices allow/require in terms of charging.

USE
Again, as a USB-C charger, it’s great. It has two ports. It can super charge two phones at one time. It’s incredible. Have two kids’ Amazon tablets? No big deal, it can charge them up at the same time. When it comes to two small devices, i.e. tablets or phones, it works great and will charge your devices as fast as your devices allow. In other words, your charger won’t be the bottleneck. The confusion and issues, if you will, come when you throw a computer into the mix.

I have two ASUS gaming laptops. Once is a 13 inch the other is a 16 inch. The former came with a USB-C charger. The latter has a large charging brick. They both actually charged with a USB-C charger, but neither permitted me to use the laptop in full performance mode. (they both have discrete GPUs). It didn’t prevent me from using the laptop as I wanted. I couldn’t put it in “performance” mode, but it I could still do what I wanted - presumably because it was using the GPU off battery.
I did try to charge my phone at the same time. My phone still charged at super speeds so I was pretty happy. When I travel with my smaller ASUS computer, I’m not generally playing games, etc. so I don’t need (I looked it up, 165 W of power), so only having one charger to charge both at pretty quick speeds is a win. I should also mention, I didn’t time how long it took to charge my laptop, but it didn’t seem any longer (just charging) than the charger that came with it.
CONCLUSION
This is a fantastic charger. I can say, generally speaking, it will charge two USB-C devices super fast. But it is probably worth researching what devices you intend to use with it, and see if it matches up. But for most of us, it’s a terrific super charging 2 USB-C device that is well built.

I’m a long time gamer. I just recently got an Xbox Series X. The controller with the system is just fine, I like the ergonomics, and it’s plenty light, but to some degree it feels cheap. I’ve heard much about Scuf products and have always been interested in them. I like the customization of the buttons, sticks, and the extra buttons on the back. I’ve admittedly never used the Elite 2 controller, but from my perspective, the Scuf Instinct Pro is one of the best controllers money can buy. Its only drawback is the expense. It’s not cheap. But if you’re serious about gaming, not professionally, but just enjoy playing, it’s worth consideration if you can spare the dough.
IN THE BOX
The packaging was impressive. The box is small, but when you open it up you’re greeted with this foam pad that goes around the sticks to protect it in transit. There’s even this plastic sheet wrap on the bottom of it. I’m not sure what purpose it serves, but it speaks to the care Scuf puts into its products. Other than the controller, you get a nice, long, braided, USB-C cable and two replacement joysticks that are domed (the ones on the controller are concave). These joysticks also have different heights; for example, it’s recommended to use the taller joystick for the right one and the shorter one for the left joystick for FPS games.

SETUP/THE CONTROLLER ITSELF
For those that are knew to SCUF or even customizable gaming pads, I wanted to mention how this one in particular works. The first thing you’ll notice is that this is the exact shape of any Xbox One/Series S/X controller you’ve held. So it will instantly feel familiar.

You need not fear breaking any plastic tabs that hold the controller together, everything is held together by small, yet mighty, magnets. You can slide a fingernail under the controller cover and it comes off easily (but not so easily that you’ll worry about it falling off on its own. I’ll go ahead and note that you can buy different color cover plates, but I’m not certain of the range of colors or prices. Taking off the cover plate is how you swap out the joysticks. With the cover off, a gentle tug of the sticks and they’ll slide right off.
One thing I noticed is that there are no weights with this controller, like you’ll find with the Elite model from Microsoft. I have never thought a controller was too light or too heavy, but that might matter to some of you. Point is, the weight of the controller is the weight of the controller. Anecdotally speaking, I found it a tad heavier than the controller that came with my Xbox, but not so much so as to be distracting; after holding the SCUF for a little bit I honestly couldn’t tell the difference.
The other three big features of the controller are the extra paddle buttons (P1-P4) on the back of the controller, the ability to switch the RT and LT triggers to “mouse click” buttons and the ability to map and store 3 different profiles (for the P1-P4 buttons). First, the mouse click buttons are cool and allow a quicker response; it does indeed feel like clicking a mouse. You can change one or both of the triggers by using the switch on the bottom of the controller.
Mapping the P1-P4 buttons was a bit tedious to me, primarily because I don’t normally play with those extra paddle buttons. I find the learning curve steep. But the premise is, with the controller on, you cycle between the profiles using the button on the back of the controller and when you want to remap the buttons, you hold the profile button until it blinks (there’s different colors that correspond with each profile) once it’s blinking, you hold the original face button and then one of the P# buttons until it stops blinking. You then repeat the process up to four times for each P button. The only buttons you can’t remap are the Xbox home button, share button, and start button. I’m still learning to use the P buttons so I haven’t created separate profiles, but I can see where the advantage is in having them. I first just need to train myself to use them in general. And I like how you can change the profile with a push of the button on the controller versus going through a convoluted process of menus on the Xbox.
The controller is powered by AA batteries, which for me is fine. I used to have some old rechargeable batteries that came with a battery cover with a hole in it (to charge them) but I don’t see that working here as the battery cover is held in place by magnets. But again, I’m okay with using AA batteries as they seem to have a long battery life. I haven’t drained the set of batteries that came with it yet, and I’ve played about 20 hours.
Last, I’ve seen aftermarket rubber grips for controllers before and dismissed them as unnecessary. However, this controller has them built in and I’m sold. I’ve never really thought about sweat on my hands when playing video games, but after playing for several hours I came to consciously appreciate the rubber grip. I realize you could spend a fraction of the cost of this controller to get those grips, but the point is, it’s a nice bonus; especially for those who haven’t previously given it a thought.
In terms of performance, I found it to be terrific. Playing Call of Duty with the mouse triggers was a bit different than what I was used to, but I could tell the difference in gameplay, I definitely felt like I had a little advantage (I still stink at aiming). It connects to my PC and Xbox flawlessly through traditional methods (Bluetooth on my computer, it paired immediately) and the pairing button on the Xbox console. It functions just like any Xbox controller you’ve used in the past. The difference being the quality and heft of the controller (again, I find the controller packaged with the Xbox to feel “cheap” and not worthy of such a premium console), the paddle buttons and mouse click trigger switches.
CONCLUSION
On some level, the fact that the controller performs the same as the one that comes with the console goes against purchasing it, given its cost. But if you like to customize your devices (i.e. new faceplates) and care about your gaming performance (i.e. different size, shape joysticks, extra paddles, trigger switches) then this is a controller you should seriously consider. It’s by far my favorite controller I’ve used (I’m not getting into the design and shape of Xbox v. Playstation, I have both consoles and love both). But in terms of comfort and features, this one is hard to beat. Its biggest competitor, however, is Microsoft itself which makes the Elite controller. The Elite in some respect beats the SCUF on customization, but that doesn’t mean the SCUF controller shouldn’t be considered.

I’m not certain most of us would pick a USB drive on it’s environmental impact alone, but assuming we believe that SanDisk has made a USB thumb drive out of mostly recycled plastic and still manages killer speeds to boot, seems like a win-win.
This is a typical USB thumb drive that we’ve all seen an undoubtedly own. In my opinion, anything less than 64 GB isn’t worth buying, given the steep drop in costs, and 128 GB is a good sweet spot in terms of size and cost. Plus, who wants to save hundreds of GBs of data on a thumb drive that’s susceptible of being lost?
In my work and professional life, I’m using USB drives to move large amounts of data - dozens of GBs of various documents and videos/photos. So speeds are a must for me. USB 2.0 need not apply. This drive boasts impressive speeds, with the only caveat being your machine must be able to accommodate those speeds to take full advantage (if nothing else, this drive is future proof).
In terms of the physical aspect of the USB drive, it’s small, but not too small. I’ve seen smaller ones that are even easier to lose. This one is short and stubby. It also has a loop to hook it onto a keychain or something else to keep it secure. Tough to say how it holds up over time, but first impressions are that it’s relatively durable.
It comes with SanDisk software preinstalled, but I don’t typically mess with that. I generally quick format my drive and set it up for encryption.
Before jumping into real world performance, I do need to mention that I have an ASUS gaming laptop with GEN4 SSD. It also has USB 3.2 compatible ports. Point being, and it’s probably obvious, older laptops won’t be able to transfer at the same speeds as me. But I copied a 3.3 GB video file from my computer to the thumb drive. As you can see in the screenshot, it averaged about 50 MB/s transfer speeds. Not quite the 100 MB/s, although it peaked over 50 at some points. But all-in-all, it took a little over 60 seconds to transfer the whole file. To me, that’s fast, although it didn’t hit the advertised speeds. Honestly, I never expect any data transfer to be as fast as theoretical speeds; at least in real world cases.
Bottomline, this is a relatively cheap USB thumb drive with terrific speeds. It has a convenient hook to keep on a keychain that seems durable enough. And it’s made of recycled plastic to boot. Not sure how much that matters to you, but it’s at least proof that our tech devices can be somewhat eco friendly without sacrificing performance.

There’s a lot to like about the Shark Pro. It has 40 minute battery life, which should be plenty for a vacuum session, it has a no tangle brush, and comes with several cleaning attachments and has headlights which is great at showing dirt/dust on hardwood floors. The dustbin is also large, much larger than my older Dyson stick vacuum. But it’s missing what I believe to be important for a stick vacuum and that’s storage options, especially the ability to mount in the wall. That especially rings true for me given the price point. If the latter doesn’t matter to you, then this is a great option as it is a great vacuum.
IN THE BOX
The box is pretty light. Inside you get the motor and dust canister as well as an extension, vacuum head, crevice tools, and even an air freshener. And there’s the power cord. The instructions don’t mention charging before the first use, but I did anyway just in case.

SETTING UP/CONTROLS
There is a picture instruction manual. Although I found most of it unnecessary as using and setting up the device is pretty intuitive, especially if you’ve owned a stick vacuum before. The only reason I recommend keeping the instructions is for the care and maintenance - which you should not ignore. Maintenance on ANY vacuum is crucial for maintaining performance long term. This is especially true for the Sense IQ sensors.

This is especially true for the Sense IQ sensors.
After charging, I snapped the battery into the base and started vacuuming. There’s only two buttons on the handle which is nice, as vacuums in my opinion should be dead simple to use. There’s the power button which obviously turns it on. There’s a button that looks like a fan that cycles between the vacuum’s three modes: eco (for longer battery); maximum power; and Sense IQ. The Sense IQ mode is what I kept it on, and apparently the vacuum can detect how much dust and dirt is on the floor and will adjust the power automatically. There’s also an LED bar on the base of the nozzle. It looks like a power bar. I can’t tell if it’s telling you how much dirt it detects, or the power level of the vacuum, but the two go hand in hand. Obviously when it detects more dirt, it ramps up the power and the bar “fills up.” After cleaning an area, the bar decreases to minimum and the power turns back down (and by power, you can tell by the volume of the motor, you definitely know when it’s “ramping” up and when it’s at less power).
The tools are easy to pop on and off; there’s easy to find buttons at the base of the vacuum and at the long pole where the vacuum head typically is. So you can use the crevice and pet multi tool attached directly to the motor for say vacuuming couches, or attach either of them to the end of the long pole to reach high places.
Emptying the dust can is also a cinch. There’s simply a button to release the bin. I found the dirt just fell out, so no need to put your hand in there to break it up or banging it against a trash can to get it to come out. I’m not certain how well that will hold up as dust accumulates over time, but I’m certain if you keep the inside of the dustbin reasonably clean (by rinsing it out periodically) it won’t be a problem.
PERFORMANCE
As I said initially, I think this vacuum performs well. It sounds weird, but it has a nice hum to it. Sometimes I feel like quieter vacuums don’t perform well (which isn’t necessarily true), and this sounds like an engine. But not in an obnoxious, super loud way. I just liked the sound of it. Even when it revved up to max performance (whether by choosing the option or because the Sense IQ did it) I didn’t think it was too loud. It will, however, wake up your partner or kids if they’re sleeping nearby, but that’s to be expected. But I digress.

My house is a combination of hardwood floors and carpet. In my experience, some vacuums kick dirt and fallen food around the floor with its brushes. That’s not the case here. If I vacuumed over anything (within reason, no vacuum is going to suck up large objects) it picked them up on the first passover without knocking it around the floor. I also have cats and with that comes cat hair and small amounts of litter near the litterbox. My wife also has long hair, which causes problems getting tangled up in brush heads. I had no issues in the department in my short time so far. The brush has, thus far, held up to being tangle free. It picks up everything on the hardwood floors with ease. And I really like the headlights, especially when vacuuming with the lights off. I know that sounds weird, but if you vacuum in low light, the vacuum’s head lights really show you the dirt and guide you where to vacuum and allow you to see “clean floors” after you’re done. On carpet, obviously it’s harder to see the dust/dirt/hair when vacuuming, but it seemed to do a great job of picking everything up as evidenced by what it collected in the bin. I also want to comment on edges. Some vacuums are better than others at vacuuming up to the edge of the baseboards. This vacuum didn’t blow me away by getting every bit of dust next to the baseboard, but it does better than some. Meaning, you can use the vacuum up to the edge of walls and feel pretty certain it picked up most of the dirt/dust. But it won’t eliminate the need, at least at times, to use the crevice tool to run along the edges of floors.
The same goes with the attachments. They are basic (there’s no small head roller vacuum, like to vacuum couches or carpeted stairs) but they are the essentials. Every vacuum needs a crevice tool and some larger crevice stool with small brushes on the edge to get dust bunnies in the hard to reach places.
All-in-all, it’s a terrific performing vacuum.
MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTS
I wanted to mention a few things specific to this vacuum. First, the air freshener. I’m a bit loath for “extra” features like this that require me to potentially replace them. I didn’t see any documentation about how long the air freshener lasts, but it can’t be forever (I don’t think). I’m not sure what air it’s freshening. When I first put it in I could smell it in the air, but it either stopped working or I got used to it. To me, it felt more gimmicky.

When I first put it in I could smell it in the air, but it either stopped working or I got used to it. To me, it felt more gimmicky.
The Sense IQ. It seems to work well in that it does ramp up when the light shows you a bunch of dirt/dust collected on the floor, but it too feels a bit gimmicky. It will require the cleaning of sensors at some point; I know this because the directions mention it. Like, it’s a nice touch, but at the same time, I feel like it’s more work in the long run. Although cleaning the sensors really isn’t much work. But I kept it on the Sense IQ mode when operating it and again, it did well. I don’t really have any complaints about it, or strong feelings for it, I guess it just feels like an unnecessary complication for a vacuum (I subscribe to the thought process of more complicated devices, the more things that can break).
Using it as a hand vac. The base is lightweight, and vacuuming couch crevices is just fine. But if you used the long extension and vacuuming above your head, I found it to be a little off balance weight wise. Again, it’s not heavy, but it gets a little tiresome if you were to be vacuuming above your head for long periods of time. This probably isn’t too much of an issue as I doubt this is something you would be doing for long periods of time, but I thought it worth mentioning.
No wall mount, charging station. This is the real tragedy for me, and really the only knock on this otherwise good vacuum. At this price point, it has to have better storage/charging capabilities. Dyson, for example, typically includes a wall mount and allows you to slide the vacuum in to charge it. Here, your only storage option is to take the base off the pole and attach it (you’ll have to see the picture to see what I’m talking about). This is okay, but I prefer this to be on the wall. And the charging is a bit cumbersome. You have to know where you keep the charger and either take the battery out each and every time you want to charge it, or I guess store the vacuum near the plug and have the relatively short cable plugged into the wall. For a “budget” vacuum, I get it, I wouldn’t expect it. But this vacuum is expensive enough for that to be included in the overall package.
CONCLUSION
A few gimmicky things aside, gimmicks that are nice features, this is a great overall vacuum. A large dust bin, long enough run time for most of your vacuuming needs, and the no tangle brush. Those are the big ones for me. But the lack of storage options, hanging on the wall, place to keep the attachments, really holds this back as being one of the best choices for a stick vacuum.

Gets the job done.
Surprisingly, there’s no tricks here, there’s no separate app to download to control your garbage disposal or adding it to your Wi-Fi network, this is Best Buy selling a “dumb” (i.e. non-smart home device) but necessary, kitchen appliance. I’m a novice to garbage disposals so it’s tough for me to comment on how much horsepower is enough, but I have a family of four and I can say this Frigidaire does the job.
IN THE BOX
Obviously you’ll get the disposal in the box. It’s pretty big, but not any bigger than other disposals of similar power - it’s just something I never really look at since it’s under the sink. There’s a cord that comes with it, which requires you to plug it in. IMPORTANT, if you don’t have an outlet under your sink, you might want to look elsewhere. The cord is 3 feet which should be plenty long. You also get a drain tube. It comes with a sink flange, but you might not need it depending on your situation (i.e. if you’re just attaching the motor to the existing flange.

INSTALLATION
This is by no means an instructional review on how to install a garbage disposal. And there’s nothing particularly special re the install re this disposal compared to others. So, I’m just speaking to those DIYers out there who need a disposal and are looking to install it themselves. I’m no plumber, but I know my way around most tools, and I found the installation process to be very easy. I’ll note I didn’t replace the flange (which requires plumbers putty) I simply used the existing one and exchanged the motors. I was done in relative short order. But even if you are replacing the hole thing, or putting a disposal on a new sink, all you need are a few tools and a couple of YouTube videos and you should be able to get the job done. Plus, the instruction manual is pretty handy in this regard.

PERFORMANCE
There’s really not much to say about garbage disposals. The biggest thing is, do they work in grinding up food and are they loud? This ¾ HP model is good at grinding food and it’s not terribly loud. Sometimes when first turning it on I hear it kind of wind up, but it’s surprisingly quiet compared to my old disposal. I never found the volume of a disposal to be much of an issue; I’m rarely talking to someone while cleaning the dishes and disposing of food. But maybe you don’t want to wake up the family cleaning later in the evening. I obviously can’t give you a decibel rating, but just anecdotally, I think it’s pretty quiet for what it is. I haven’t had it long enough to drop foreign (i.e. non food items) in it. So I can’t speak to its durability of having metal, for example, in it. The box claims it has a magnetic ring built in to capture “most metal” before it goes into the drain. I haven’t tested this per se, and I don’t recall dropping any metal into it, so I can’t really test the veracity of this claim, but it seems like a nice idea. I’m guessing they’re thinking of rings coming off one’s hands.

CONCLUSION
A garbage disposal is the football lineman of the kitchen. They do all the grunt work and rarely get the praise, only complaints when not working well. It’s also not flashy, but I’d argue, an important piece of your kitchen. In that respect, this model handles most of what you throw at it. I’ve cleaned off dishes for a family of 4 with food on the plates and never worried that it wasn’t up to the task. And while I haven’t tested the other models, I think if you have the space, going for the middle of the road option (middle of the road in terms of horsepower) is a good balance of power/price/performance.

I’ve always struggled understanding the cost of digital frames. They are limited in functionality and now you can get Alexa or Google Home with a screen that gives you a digital assistant and digital photo frame. However, some people don’t care for, or don’t want, a digital assistant. In those instances, digital photo frames make sense. The only real downside is that you can’t link any photo services to it, which would automatically add new photos to the frame automatically. Here, you have to manually add photos through the app (which is still easy, don’t get me wrong, but you do have to take action to add new photos to the frame.
IN THE BOX
Real simple, you get the frame and the power cord and the magnetic stand.

SETUP
Super easy, you plug in the power cord to the base, and then you attach the magnetic stand to the frame. It can be positioned in landscape or portrait mode. There are some adhesive stickers on the frame (that you will remove) that kind of show you where/how to put the stand on.

From there, you simply download an app and register an account. While I did that, you use the touchscreen on the frame to connect to your WiFi. You want to make sure you connect the frame to the same WiFi network as your phone (for the setup process). I really appreciated the fact that the screen was touchscreen, making this process easy. After it was connected, the frame had to download an update.
Once I registered my account and the frame updated, the app found it almost instantly. You then add the frame to your account, and you can label where it is (mine’s at my office). If you have multiple frames, you’re able to label them by room to avoid confusion.
THE APP AND ADDING PHOTOS
The app is surprisingly intuitive, which I can’t say for some frames (at least the one my mom owns). When you get everything set up and registered, it has a little checklist/walkthrough for you to follow. It’s a nice way to figure out how it works. Before I mention photos, you can adjust the settings by touching the gear wheel which allows the screen to go to sleep when no one is in the room, how long it takes to go to sleep, etc. You can also share the screen with others, which allows them to add photos to it.

The only complaint I really have is that it doesn’t connect to photo services. I use Google Photos and frequently delete the photos locally stored on my phone (after they’ve been backed up). You can’t just connect Google Photos or the like. You have to upload the photos to Nixplay’s servers (which at least according to the marketing on the box, is very secure). But for me, I had to open Google Photos and download the individual photos I wanted to add, and then go back to the Nixplay app and add them from there. It’s a minor inconvenience, and one that may not affect you if your photos are always stored on your phone’s memory.
You can organize your photos into playlists, like a family vacation for example. And then you can pick select playlists to display photos. This isn’t a big deal to me because I just assume I had a ton of photos from various events and let the frame cycle through all of them, but I’m assuming some people will really appreciate it.
QUALITY
The frame can display photos, obviously, but it also shows GIFs and videos. There’s an option to turn the volume on in the app. I don’t like the video option because of the random volume, but again, some people might appreciate that.

The photo quality is great. The screen is plenty bright and sharp. At 8 inches, even “bad” photos will look good due to the pixel density. I have zero complaints on the image front.
CONCLUSION
Photo frames are basic devices, but this one performs well and is easy to use. If you’re a techy or someone interested in a device, at this price point, that does more, you might want to look for a smart home device. If you’re buying this as a gift, maybe a parent, it’s a great choice. The ability to send photos to loved ones who have it is probably the primary reason for getting it.

GoPro - Karma Quadcopter with HERO5 Black - Black/White
Take aerial shots with this GoPro Karma drone. Its Karma Stabilizer lets the included HERO5 Black action camera capture shake-free videos, while the Karma Grip provides reliable stabilization for handheld and mounted filming. The game-style controller with an integrated touch display makes Karma easy and fun to fly.Fly Responsibly:Before takeoff, update all software and firmware, and read the instructions thoroughly.See the FAA website for registration requirements and information about flying a drone safely: https://www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/. Additional state or local requirements may apply. Check your local jurisdiction. The following websites may help you make informed decisions about flying your drone: www.knowbeforeyoufly.org and www.modelaircraft.org.
Just curious what the flight time experience has been like. Says 20 minutes with no payload; however, is the camera considered "payload"? Is it 20 minutes WITH the camera? Also, how close to 20 minutes is the "actual" flight time?
Given that the camera is required to fly I wouldn't think that the camera is considered payload. I've never tried to fly with any payload mostly because I haven't needed to and it doesn't seem equipped to hold anything (you would have to use some ingenuity to attach something to it). I can speak as to how long it flies without any payload but obviously with the camera. And in my use, it's been between 18-19 minutes of flight time. The very first time I flew it, it landed itself due to low battery around the 18 minutes mark, even though on the handheld controller, the screen said there was 2 minutes of flight time left. I haven't flown it enough while taking video/stills to determine how much that drains the battery. Hope that helps.

GoPro - Dual Battery Charger - Black
Charge 2 GoPro lithium-ion batteries simultaneously with this GoPro AHBBP-301 charger that reliably draws power from select USB chargers, USB-enabled computers or GoPro wall or vehicle chargers (not included), so you can keep your camera ready for use.
Does this have the cable to connect charger to computer? Is there a cord that connects camera directly to computer or wall charger for charging? I think we lost ours.
It comes with a mini-USB cable which you can plug into your computer (I wouldn't recommend because of slow charging) and a wall charger. The same mini-USB cable plugs directly into the camera itself
