This a very straight forward middle of the road printer. Easy to set up and app enabled for easy WiFi/Bluetooth printing. Prints about 10 sheets a min black/white and about 8 sheets a min color. Scanning is fairly quick as well
Print quality is spot in for B/W but color starts to fade and run after about 6 pages in a row.
As a nice bonus this printer comes with what they say is two months of ink guaranteed.
Does this one work, yep! Are there better out there, yes!

Right out of the box I was skeptical of these earbuds. As an avid runner not having the ear hook made me nervous about these guys falling out. Turns out they sit in the ear very comfortably, in fact these are the most comfortable BT earbuds I’ve ever used.
I usually run 3 miles 4x a week and I’ve yet to have an earbud fall out due to sweat and when they say extra bass man do they mean it! It really helps to drone out the hollow noise in your head that some earbuds can create.
An added bonus is that these guys have magnetic locks in their charging case which easily locks it into the charging tines, no need to hope they charge.

First and foremost, this is a well designed, modern WiFi router. Looks great in my farmhouse rustic style house (unlike my bulky Comcast router).
Set up took all of 10 minutes to complete, the hardest part is getting all of your devices onto the new router. If your like me you have a lot of devices so it takes time.
My house is single story w/finished basement totaling 2600 sq ft. I’ve got the router on one side of the house upstairs and the booster in my basement on the other side of the house which produces a solid coverage net for my house. No dead spaces, no slow zones! The trick is to spread them out and separate them.
Oh and this bad boy ties in easily if you already have nest products in the house and has simple integration into the nest app.

Overall this item works as intended. Adding the bands is fairly easy and the amount of resistance you want to add is varied.
Comes with the bow, and 10 toys bands of resistance ranging from 5lbs-90lbs.
There’s 8 total workouts you can do on this, I wish there was more. I’m active duty military so I’m in good shape so this doesn’t do much for me but my wife swears by it. It’s perfect for her body type and she really enjoys the workouts.

Philips - Pasta Maker Plus - HR2375/06 - White And Silver
Philips Pasta and Noodle Maker Plus - HR2375/06
Phenomenal Product
Customer Rating
5.0
Never made my own pasta before but after using this for a month it’s a breeze. Has simple institutions and beautiful design. Comes with four noodle attachments (spaghetti, linguine, penne & ravioli), pasta cutter and cleaner. You can buy other attachments to make several types of noodles (I recommend getting the angel hair one).
I kid you not when it comes to using this, measure dry ingredients and place into the machine, start device, add wet ingredients and in no time flat...delicious fresh noodles. You’ll never want to eat boxed noodles again.
This will also make rice noodles which is used in pho. I HIGHLY recommend trying this!! Makes pho taste 100x better when the noodles are fresh!
To make most noodles you’ll need semolina flour (amazon) but you can use whole wheat, bread & rice as well to make them.
Just love love love this product!

Shark - Pet Plus Cordless Stick Vacuum with Self-Cleaning Brushroll and PowerFins - Magenta
The Shark Pet Plus Cordless Stick Vacuum combines powerful suction and a self-cleaning brushroll with PowerFins to clean floors and carpets with no hair wrap. Lightweight design and a removable hand vacuum allow cleaning from floor to ceiling.
Very Basic Cordless Vacuum
Customer Rating
1.0
It was hard to find something I liked about this vacuum. Overall it’s works like a cordless but Shark really fell flat on this one.
Suction is ok, not great on carpet but it works on hardwood floors.
I was getting about 35 mins per charge and the battery would fully charge in 1.5hrs.
Doesn’t come with a wall mount, which really sucks for storage. I found one on amazon for $30 or on Shark for $10. That could’ve easily been included with the purchase.
It comes with tools which snap on/off with ease however there’s no storage for them.
There’s no base for the battery to lock into while charging, you plug the ac line directly into the battery. Again this suffers from a lack of storage. The battery, tools and charging cable all sit in a very unattractive pile while the vacuum chills up against a wall.
The one thing I like? The colors.
Overall I would avoid this model, sure it works but the lack of storage makes it an ugly mess when not being used.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I wanted to test these for a long period of time before reviewing them. As an avid runner whose also active duty military I've been struggling to find a good set of BT earbuds that stand up to running and sweat.
I believe that search is over. These earbuds come with a charging case and 3 sizes of cups to ensure they fit properly, pretty standard stuff. They also feature a unique auto off feature which I really like (ear clip touches the ear bud) and they have to be returned to the case to charge.
Performance while running, I'm not disappointed. I run in between 12-15 miles a day and these earbuds have performed well under those conditions. They're not affected by sweat and stay comfortably in ear for long runs.
The only drawback is there is no deep bass, not a real problem for me since I listen to thrash metal but that's about the only drawback I could find.

Insignia™ - True Wireless In-Ear Headphones - Black
Ditch the headphone cable with these Insignia Bluetooth wireless earbuds. With up to five hours of use per charge and an included charging case for mid-day boosts, these earbuds are ideal for daily use. These Insignia Bluetooth wireless earbuds feature a built-in microphone for hands-free calling and easy voice commands.
Good Wireless Headphones for the Price

Pros; easy to set up/use, three sizes of in ear rubber “feet” to ensure a solid fit, ascetically good looking with a hard case that charges the headphones while protecting them.
Cons; touch sensor on the ear buds (changing songs, skip etc) is tricky to use and takes time to master & it’s lacking deep bass.
With that being said they’re solid while running (I’m military and run about 20 miles a week) and stay in place even when settings.

As expected the sound quality is excellent but then again it’s Dolby Atmos so it’s expected to be awesome (and loud!)
What threw me off was having the sound projected to the ceiling then back down on me. It truly had me nervous at first but as time goes on you realize that by doing it creates an immersive sound experience. This is not the direct, peel your face off sound that most systems use but don’t worry it’s as good as anything out there!!
My daughter has Chromecast and esay paired it to the system/speakers and again, the it performed flawlessly with deep bass and crystal clear sound. I have an uncompressed version of Tools Lateralus and my god it was sound perfection

Is it worth it, getting the 2yr Warrenty with the PS3??????
YES!! Get the warranty, you walk in with your busted system, they check the receipt and you walk out with a new one!! I recommend to always back up your data with a thumb drive as they do not transfer for it for free. Geek Squad will charge you $50 for the transfer. Don't worry about the trophies, those sync to the Sony server and replaced by syncing the new console with the server.

How long is your warranty on Ps3 and do you offer military discounts?
Best Buy does not offer the warranty unless you pay for the Black Tie Protection which varies based on the system size and the length of warranty. Best Buy as a corporation, does not offer a military discount. However, I'm in the military as well and my BBY offers a military night 3 times a year which gives us 10% off everything in store (except price locked items) and 20% of all Geek Squad services. Talk to your local BBY and have them contact the BBY in Vacaville CA about hosting a military night. They do it right, they do it the best

How can I get them cheap?
I was going to buy a ps3 but the whole thing is I'm on a tight budget right now, and I'm not really into the whole online auction deal where you have to give your credit card number and all that personal information. It seems that everywhere I look they're at least $250 or more and I'm not looking for a 320GB ps3 I just need even a 40GB I just need some help.
If you want one cheap you'll have to go pre owned route. Sony has discontinued the 40/80 GB models. Now that BBY has preowned check the stores in your area to see if they've got any and if not, check the competitors.

Does Best Buy carry an 80gb Playsation 3, new not refurbished? And how much would it cost?
Not any more as Sony discontinued that model. If you do find one I would buy it as a lot of PS3 owners prefer that model (myself included) and would jump at the chance to get it again. I prefer that modal as it has 4 USB ports, and the extra memory slots (SD, XD, etc.). If you do find one expect to pay around $300.

what is the lifespan of the slim ps3
i know frum experience and research that the "fat" models only had about 2 year life..then u encounter laser and overheating issues..have these issues been addressed on the slims?
I have a fat model that's lasted for 4 years. I play about 10-20 hours a week. The secret to taking care of any of the new gaming systems is ventilation! Keeping your system in a well ventilated area will extend it's life many years. Dust the components regularly and keep any moisture away. The same goes for the slim models; keep it ventilated and it will last years.

Can you trade in ds games for wii games
i have ds games but i dont use them at all because my ds broke but i have a wii and i play it and i want to get rid of them
Certain Best Buy's will take trade in's based on condition of the game. The newer the game, the more trade in value. However, most DS games won't get more than $8-$10 trade in value. Check online using the store locater tab to locate a Best Buy that will take trade ins. It's also recommended that you have the original case and instructions as that add's to the value.

HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD MY PICTURE ON MY PSP #3
HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD MY PICTURES?
Easiest way is to put them on thumb drives, externals, etc. and just plug it into one of the USB ports. You'll be able to transfer any that are properly formatted. Jpeg is the preferred format.

When will you have more ps3's in stock?
Sony traditionally ships around the 5th and 20th of every month and if they have any to release, they'd be in there. Best Buy can order all they want, but unless Sony is willing to release, there's nothing much us mortals can do.
