So overall it is a great headset, sound is good, charge time takes awhile but battery lasts a long time. Microphone automatic turn on when you flip it down is awesome, and the charging base station is cool too.
The reason I only gave it 3 stars is because of two huge annoyances. I have a soundbar hooked up to my TV through HDMI for Dolby Atmos. You CAN NOT have this headset plugged in at the same time as the soundbar otherwise you can not use Dolby ATMOS. Its hard to believe the way they xbox is that it can not recognize each one as separate like it does in the settings aka one is a headset, the other is a soundbar, but I think it has to do with the dock that comes with the headset that plugs in via optical.
So what you have to do to use dolby atmos sound through soundbar you have to take the power cord out of the base station of the headset, go into settings, and re setup your soundbar. To switch back to the headset you have to deconfigure dolby atmos and plug headset back in.
You would think for the price you pay for these you do not have to worry about that. Major pain in the butt that should be fixed.

The coffee maker and the toaster oven work well. You can use all at the same time. The top grill part is actually pretty horrible. Takes forever to even warm up and inconsistent cooking. It basically sits on top of the heating rods that go on and off. I recommend investing into a simple pan you can cook all 3 in.

What's great about it: Taste!
What's not so great: Price!
The price for these cups are not really worth the value, but they are great to drink and refreshing if you brew correctly. If you make too small of a cup, it is too strong, if you make too big of a cup, it is too watery. Use the medium cup size option for best taste.
If the price was cheaper for this, it would be excellent overall.

What's great about it: No more boxes
What's not so great: Nothing.
This thing is great to have! I don't have to keep any boxes around for my k-cups. Just pop them into this device and toss the boxes. When I am ready to make one of the cups, pull it out of this holder and slap it in the machine quickly. Looks good, just don't drop it, plastic breaks.

What's great about it: Cheap
What's not so great: Breaks easily.
These do not last very long and break quick. These are great for what they are. A cheap headset. If you do not want to buy a fancy headset just to speak through a microphone, then these will go great.

Its amazing to watch these original star wars movies now in 1080p. It looks excellent and is a fun new fresh way of watching these movies if you have seen them before. Plenty of hours of entertainment for sure to relax.
Cant find any complaints at all.
Lots of DVD extra's too, but I am just in it for the movies, not the extras crud.

 Watch Dogs Standard Edition - Xbox One
Watch Dogs Standard Edition - Xbox One
All it takes is the swipe of a finger. We connect with friends. We buy the latest gadgets and gear. We find out what's happening in the world. But with that same simple swipe, we cast an increasingly expansive shadow. With each connection, we leave a digital trail that tracks our every move and milestone, our every like and dislike. And it's not just people. Today, all major cities are networked. Urban infrastructures are monitored and controlled by complex operating systems.In Watch Dogs, this system is called the Central Operating System (CTOS) — and it controls almost every piece of the city's technology and holds key information on all of the city's residents. You play as Aiden Pearce, a brilliant hacker, whose criminal past led to a violent family tragedy. Now on the hunt for those who hurt your family, you'll be able to monitor and hack all who surround you by manipulating everything connected to the city's network. Access omnipresent security cameras, download personal information to locate a target, control traffic lights and public transportation to stop the enemy... and more.
 
Good game, but over hyped.

What's great about it: Alternative ways to kill and complete missions.
What's not so great: The driving.
This game starts off pretty slow so it is hard to get into, but it does pick up and becomes fun. Just make it past those first few missions. The cool thing about this game, instead of running and gunning every mission. You can make use of technology to distract guards, lure guards, set off explosion traps. So you can play sneaky or run and gun. Personally I like to complete everything stealthy and keep my character out of harms way ^_^.
The driving mechanics are simply terrible. It is more arcade style driving that will make you appreciate GTA V's driving.
If you pre purchased this game from bestbuy, you dont get your pre purchase reward because they haven't sent out the codes and done believe they are going to.

What's great about it: Excellent BluRay Quality
What's not so great: Extras, who really goes out of the way to see those.
Packaging for this product was excellent. All the movies come inside a hard box so all the movies stay together. Each movie is in its own DVD case inside that box.
I have a 1080p tv and the Bluray quality on these movies are perfect. Picture is great.
These movies will kill plenty of boredom time, lots of hours to view.

What's great about it: Great for grandparents.
What's not so great: Not really needed.
Mac is great for not getting viruses, this program basically provides just a reassurance. I would only get this for my grandparents because SOMEHOW they will find a way to get a virus even on the Mac platform. Its really really hard to get a virus on a macbook regardless. After the free period is up its not really worth paying to have it.
There are much better anti virus programs out there, but if you are a macbook user, I wouldn't worry about having extra junk like this running on the laptop. Its all sales pitches, not needed.

Office 2013 & Office 365

A year ago I bought an Ultrabook with Windows 8 and Office 2013 installed; later, I upgraded to 8.1 and Office 365. Now, I cannot use Office 2013, it asks me for the activation key and since I moved I misplaced it; could you have it in your records?; or where could I find the activation key? Thanks in advance!
Need to get in contact with microsoft support. They are the only ones who can access that activation key for you or provide you with a new one.

what do i do

Laptop/tablet just started to be slow 2days ago it won't download my upgrade & keep kick in me off the internet
You need to access the internet from another computer. Go download a program called malewarebytes. Save it on a flash drive, then boot your computer into safe mode and run malewarebytes. You have a virus.

You can use google to figure out how to boot in safe mode, its very easy to do.

Yes, just run it from the desktop don't run it off the tile screen. Windows 8 is really primarily windows 7 with improvements. It is compatible just get the latest updates on it and you will be fine. Make sure to install it correctly too.
