Philips Norelco - OneBlade hybrid electric trimmer and shaver, QP2520/70 - Black And Lime Green
Philips Norelco OneBlade hybrid electric trimmer and shaver, QP2520/70
Excellent value for money!
Customer Rating
5.0
I bought the cheapest shaver in this line. Being a fan of Philips, I thought to myself, "What could go wrong? It's only 20 bucks!" Twenty bucks well spent. The shaver charges rapidly and the charge lasts almost for FOUR shaves. Don't buy into the rhetoric that it needs to be charged after EVERY shave. I found the switchable blades to be convenient; however, replacement blades cost more than the shaver in typical Gillette fashion (give away the razor for free, charge for the blades!)

The build quality of the microwave itself is meh but the vent has a powerful suction that literally sucks away grease-laden fumes from sauteing or stir-frying.

Good looking microwave with a POWERFUL fan

The exhaust fan on this unit is a-mazing! I can literally watch the fumes being sucked into the unit when I'm deep frying or stir frying stuff with oil or grease. The microwave is functional and the build quality is -- meh! In all, an okay functional product.

Frigidaire - Gallery 5.0 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Freestanding Gas Convection Range
Bake foods quickly and evenly with this 30-inch Frigidaire freestanding gas range. It offers several self-cleaning options for simple maintenance, a separate griddle grate for grilling and specialized burners for slow simmering and quick boiling. This Frigidaire freestanding gas range has an extra-large window that lets you monitor cooking progress without opening the oven door.
Great look, uneven build
Customer Rating
3.0
I'm amazed as to how a quality company like Frigidaire cannot offer a quality product. For example, there's no removable drip pan underneath the burners. The burners cannot be detached for cleaning, the middle burner swivels in one direction (a design flaw?) In all, I'm disappointed by the build and finesse.

RAYOVAC® - NiMH/NiCad AA/AAA Battery Charger
Rapidly charge up to 4 AA or AAA batteries with this Rayovac PS332-4B charger, which powers batteries in as little as 3 hours for fast replenishment. The LCD-display countdown timer and battery-fuel gauge let you keep tabs on the charging progress.
I gave a 4-* rating because this is defective

This charger does NOT work with my old NiMH batteries. This was the primary purpose for my purchasing this product. However, it does come with 4x AA cells, so all is not lost.

Microsoft - Surface Pen - Black
With 4 interchangeable stylus tips and 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity, this Microsoft Surface 3XY-00011 pen allows you to jot down notes or create detailed artwork on your Microsoft Surface. Access OneNote or Cortana with a single click.

This is a pen to be used with Microsoft's Surface products. I use it with my Surface Pro. However, it seems redundant since the Pro works well with just your fingers. The most annoying thing with this pen is that if you try to write on the Pro you need a place to rest your wrist. This causes the Pro to go haywire. Hello! Is there a way for the Pro to recognize *just* the pen? And not my other body parts?

This is Microsoft's flagship product. I was lucky to snag a deal where I got the overlay keyboard for free. Of course, the downside is that it has a hideous color but other than that, it's highly usable and practical. What more can I say? Thank you, Best Buy!

Samsung builds great products. I bought this as a replacement for a Panasonic TV I bought about a month ago (which had problems). Rather than re-live that experience, I opted to get store credit and bought the Samsung instead. There were no issues in configuring or connecting the TV to an external antenna, cable, and Roku.

Seagate - Central 2TB Personal Cloud Storage External Hard Drive (NAS) - Black
Store up to 2TB of media on this Seagate Central STCG2000100 personal Cloud storage external hard drive, which lets you create a shared digital library and access it securely over the Internet. The device is compatible with PC and Mac for versatile use.
Inexpensive NAS, easy to install and use
Customer Rating
3.0
I bought this device to serve as (a) a back up for all the computers at home and (b) as a media server for shared content. Right off the bat, however, I found that the data rates I got over our home WiFi network was 10 MBPS or less. This was nothing to sneeze at, oh about 10 years ago, but in this day and age of 10Gig Ethernet and 5Gig USB 3.0, this seemed truly pathetic! By no means could we fault Seagate for this, of course, but I'm just commenting on the VERY IDEA of a NAS in this era of the Cloud.
Geek that I am, I set up the device to work with a Mac, a desktop PC, and several Windows laptops. This was by no means challenging to me; however, I can't say this for the average computer user. This device will stretch the limts of the average Joe's computer fluency (NFS, DHCP, Windows Share, IP Addresses, drive mounting, file system.. etc, offering a mind-boggling array of buzzwords and acronyms, ALL of which you should have a working knowledge of to some extent or the other). So, the question is: why bother? Dropbox/ windows cloud storage/ google drive offer adequate (and easy to use) backup options. Moreover, who serves their own media these days? (In the era of netflix, hulu, spotify, and sling TV.) This will entai a change in lifestyle/philosophy but that's bound to happen sooner if not later. So, if I were you, I wouldn't bother with NAS at all.
Finally, one redeeming factor: It is tautologous that anything you upload to the cloud will eventually find its way to the hackers and the Paparazzi. So, if you've something on your hard drive or media server that you'd BY NO MEANS want criminals and extortionists to get hold of easily, then NAS is your option. However, if your content is indeed this sensitive, why put it on the Internet for all and sundry to hack into? Unless you're a security geek, do not expect your NAS to be secure either. The best way to prevent people on the Internet to hack into your content is not to put it there in the first place!

Can you hook up your laptop?
Was wondering if you can hook up your laptop to watch Netflix or other stuff?
Your laptop should have an HDMI port and you should have an HDMI cable to hook it up to the TV.

Can this be used as a PC monitor?
Yes. One of the HDMI ports is marked for use as a monitor (HDMI/DVI). However, you will need a DVI/HDMI converter cable.

Save up to 4TB of data on this WD My Cloud Mirror personal Cloud network-attached storage device, which features a Gigabit Ethernet interface for simple wired network connection. The 1.2GHz processor ensures rapid performance.
Raid1 configuration
I have read other places that if a raid were to go it cannot be replaced? Is that true i would think that is the whole benifit of configuring this as raid1 so if a drive were to go bad you can hot swap it.
Good luck with that ;)
