If you want to get rid of some appliances, this will help! No more blenders, food processors, “bullets”, or the like cluttering up your counter. This blender and all of its versatile attachments will do it all! Just like the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer series, this device knocks it out of the park.
All of the accessories are solid. They can be dismantled, to a point, for relatively easy cleaning and they’re dishwasher safe! When we purchased this, it was to replace an aging blender out our beach condo. The goal was to have something that could crush ice for mixed drinks. This handles that task with ease, but can do so much more! From smoothies, to margaritas, to even cookies! This blender has plenty of tricks up its sleeve! I especially like the slicer for vegetables and the like. Prep time for meals is significantly cut down due to the versatility of this appliance.
If you’re looking for a well-built kitchen appliance that can do almost everything, look no further. Once again, Ninja crushes it! I would HIGHLY recommend this device to friends and family!

I wanted a quick way to connect my desktops resources to my laptop and this device did just that! Being able to move the USB-C from one computer to the other made it easy to share resources. I was able to run multiple monitors with no lag, delay or reduction in quality. Connecting multiple hard drives did nothing to the efficiency of this docking station. This device performed admirably through all usage.
A few things of note.
- The USB-A does not charge, nor can you connect a CD drive.
- The USB-C is for charging only. Meaning it won’t work to connect another monitor.
- The device will get warm, but even under hard usage, I didn’t see it as a concern.
- It would be nice if the connecting wire was a little bit longer.
- Devices (other than the pass-through power to your laptop) will not be powered by this device.
Even with the limitations listed, this is an awesome, compact and well-built device that I hope will last me for quite some time. I would recommend this to friends and family.

I wear glasses and they fog up all the time. While these masks don't stop the fogging completely, they do more than any other mask I've tried. They're durable too! I keep these in my pocket to throw on when I'm going inside. My other masks wear out from that. These masks have stood up! Breathability is a must as well and these masks allow just that while providing a pretty good seal around the edges. If someone asked me for a recommendation on masks, I would suggest these.

Solid Monitor But Missing Some Features

Acer products have always seemed to me to be hit and miss. I've had products from them that are top of the line, while others that seem like knock-offs for a premium brand. This is my first time purchasing an Acer monitor though.
Overall, this is a solid monitor for its price point. I like the fact that I don't need any tools to put the stand together. I also like the ease of setup being relatively plug and play. However, the "plug" was my main problem. It seems that most monitors have at least three ways to connect the display to your CPU (HDMI, VGA and USB-C). Unfortunately for me this monitor does not have a USB-C port which is what I needed to attach to my docking station. I did find an aftermarket HDMI to USB-C adapter that did the job.
As for colors, contrast and brightness, this monitor does not disappoint. You will probably find that you need to turn the brightness down a tick, which is uncommon for me to do. My daughter uses this screen mainly for graphic design and drawing while it's docked with her Surface Book 3. Detailed image quality are important to her for these tasks and she loves the monitor.
Overall, this monitor is solid, but with the lack of a USB-C port or at the very least a USB-C adapter included, I gave four stars. However, I would recommend this monitor to friends and family.

I got this SDD to expand the memory on my Dell Computer. I have recently entered into the world of PC gaming. And while my SDAT SSD was good, it was filling up.
The WD SDD is a great addition to my setup up. It is SUPER fast and runs relatively cool. I'm having no problems with overheating even when running a game and multiple videos off the drive at the same time.
Installation was simple click and play. However, make sure your machine is compatible and has a PCIe port available.
Needless to say, I am very happy with this drive and would recommend it to friends and family.

Ok. First and foremost. Take the protective covers off the bottom anti-slip pads. I didn’t do this initially (because I didn’t read the instructions) and was frustrated at how this support slipped so easily. Once I removed them, I have to say this holder definitely compliments our Nest Hub Max.
It hold the Hub securely and provides the ability for the viewing angle to be adjusted easily. We also use the built in camera as a security camera on Nest so the hub allows us to adjust the camera angle to a more usable view.
For the price point, I would say this device is worth it. As with other Wasserstein products I’ve purchased this one is well built. I would recommend this product to friends and family.

This laptop was acquired to replace a 5+ year old laptop that I've had.  I was a little concerned about the size of this computer and it being able to stand up to its predecessor who had performed admirably over its lifetime.
There are only two notable deficiencies on this device.  The first is the inability to charge via the USB-C port. Having to use a proprietary charger is an annoyance that I hoped to be rid of, since most devices nowadays give you the option to charge through USB-C.
The second is more of a personal preference.  I like having the numeric keypad on the keyboard rather than using the numbers above the QWERTY keyboard.  Obviously this model was created for its lightweight and compact design, so the addition of this feature would have countered that intent.  But it is worthwhile to note in case it is a feature someone is interested in.
After that, I have nothing negative to say!  The backlit keyboard is very responsive with keystrokes feeling clean and crisp! The touchpad is responsive and reflective of the input.  The touchscreen is the same. It also supports the ability to use multi-touch for zooming in and the like. The keyboard also contains a fingerprint scanner.  A nifty little security feature which is placed perfectly on the keyboard for quick and secure identification of the user.
Screen quality is excellent. The small bezel and brilliant colors give the feel of a larger screen without the bulk. The seamless ability of the device to go from computer to tablet is admirable.  The hinges are solid and sturdy without losing fluidity and smoothness.  
I've utilized this device to stream movies and cast via WiFi along with sending it through the HDMI port.  Both worked exquisitely with no lag or issues.
At this price point and with the limitations that are inherent with producing a compact lightweight PC, this computer is top notch and will exceed a user's expectations. I would recommend this computer to friends and family.

We purchased these headphones for our 3 year old. They are to be mainly used in our vehicle so he can list to PJ Masks or whatever he is hooked on, while we can listen to whatever is not going to make us want to scratch our eyes out. :-)
All joking aside, I put the headphones on and they are plush and comfortable. My 3 year old is not one to wear headphones, but he kept these on for two hours straight during a trip.
The sound quality is solid. I don't think my child needs HD quality audio so these work well. The volume is slightly low at max, but I assume that this is done in an abundance of safety for little ears.
The only negative I have for these is the length of the cord. When using them with a tablet, the cord will be long enough. However if using them for an in-car DVD system, an extension wire will be necessary.
I would recommend these to friends and family.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting much out of this speaker, and that was a big mistake considering I've never been let down by an Anker product. This compact speaker feels SOLID. Not heavy, just that it feels like it could take a beating and walk away virtually unscathed.
In terms of power (battery life), it went all day long and into the next. I didn't even get to the low battery setting, but we had another event the next day, so I charged it to be safe. I think it could've went longer.
Sound quality was impressive, again for the price point respectively. It's clarity was pretty solid, but turning it near max range does cause distortion. If you want a little more "umph" from the bass, back the speaker up into a corner or solid surface. It will make it a little deeper.
The application could use some work and that's what dropped this one star for me. It's just not as finished as it could be with clunky controls for streaming music.
All in all, this is a cool little speaker that we will pack away for our trips to the beach. I would recommend this speaker to friends and family.

This Printer Isn’t For Me, But Don’t Overlook It

Pros: Simple setup. Integrated apps for Android, iPhone and Windows. Duplex Printing. Instant Ink Program. Quiet. Fast printing. “Anywhere” printing.
Cons: No display on machine. Only one paper tray. No full-duplex scanning (manual only). Issues with Firewall (explained later).
So as I said, this printer isn’t for me, but I caution others not to overlook it. Setup was rather easy. I had to create my HP Account for the first time. I caution anyone that has auto-fill on when registering. My phone switched to another saved email address when I submitted the form and I didn’t realize it. Now I’m stuck with that as my “Login ID” even though I was able to change my email address in my profile. My mistake, but it would be nice to be able to change your Login ID. Other than that, setup on my Android and my PC was simple. I did however run into an issue with my firewall the first time I printed. I have my firewall set up to ask me for authorization when a new program attempts to access the LAN. That notification pops up in the exact same spot that the HP Smart program puts its notifications. So unfortunately, the rule wasn’t set in time and blocked the program. It was a little bit of a headache to get around that.
The printer has the ability to print from your smartphone with the HP Smart app. That also gives it the ability to print off site which is nice especially since Google got rid of their Google Print feature. Being able to scan directly to email and a cloud eliminates multiple steps of scanning and then transferring.
Being a multi-function printer, it does most of what you would expect. I do miss the ability of a full duplex scanner in the ADF and would definitely pay a little more to have it. Only having one tray is something that is a turn off for me too. In previous printers, I would load photo paper in one tray and plain paper in the other. Again, maybe not a dealbreaker for everyone. I also need a display which it doesn’t have. HP may have oversimplified this printer.
However, I know I listed a lot of negatives, but I’m being picky. The quality and speed of photo and text printing were both exceptional. And again, I can’t reemphasize the potential of the Instant Ink Program. The price point for membership is spot on and maybe even a little cheaper than I expected. Well worth it for most users. A neat little note in the fine print of the deal. If you don’t use all of your pages in a month, they transfer to the next month and you can have up to 3x the amount of your subscription (ie. 100 pages/month can float up to 300 pages/month.)
Overall, this printer is for someone that is going to use this for a non-professional, everyday purpose. If you’re not a techy person, the simplicity of the setup and the printer itself would probably benefit you. The price point for this printer seems about accurate. I would cautiously recommend this product to friends and family.

Bring your television audio to life without compromising the beauty of the room. As an alternative to traditional sound bars or bookshelf speakers, this system allows you to enjoy premium television audio while hiding the electronics and wiring in the wall and behind the TV. This package includes two in-wall speakers with paintable grilles; when painted, the speakers almost disappear into the surrounding space. The included Sonos amp provides 125 watts of power per channel, which lets you enjoy high-resolution sound from the Sonance speakers. Also included is an in-wall power kit that brings power to the entire system without calling an electrician. A metal back box is provided to hold the in-wall power kit, Sonos AMP®, and system electronics with extra room for streaming video devices like Apple TV® or Roku®.
 

Can you attach a sub to this system as well for extra bass, or are you stuck with just the 2 included speakers? And is the amp powerful enough for a sub?

Yes. You can either hard wire a third-party sub via the output or purchase a Sonos sub for wireless connection. I personally recommend the Sonos sub. Have one on a different system and love it!

The Specification page specifically says:

Will it also work with an up-to-date linux distribution? (e.g., Ubuntu 13.10, SteamOS, RHEL 7)? (It should -- I have yet to see one that will not work)

If it is not officially supported/doesn't work, I will have to look elsewhere.
Thank you.

Does this have a power (off/on) switch? I'd like to leave it plugged in all the time & just turn the switch on when needed - is that an option?

I'd like to have the drive plugged in (usb & power) and just turn the device on via a power switch to activate - does this come with a built in on/off switch?
It powers up only when being utilized. Otherwise, it is in a standby mode until something tries to access it. No "hard" power on/off switch.

The short answer is yes. If you use a router that has a USB port for a network drive, simply plug it in and follow your routers directions. If not, you would have to "share" the drive to the other computer. If all of this sounds to complicated I would spend the little extra a get a MyBook Live or MyBook World. They connect to your router through a ethernet cable and are ready to run immediately.
