From the 1st time I saw different variations of this style leg and feet devices, I always questioned if and how well they work. Well I'm no longer questioning, but I'm a true believer that the work and work very well.
I love how long the rechargeable batteries last in these, one charge lasts me 6-8 uses before recharging is necessary. I assumed these ran off electric, but surprisingly they are battery powered. These work in conjunction of each other. So when you choose a setting on one leg, both legs respond to the setting change.
I usually go with all 5 zones of massage and a level 4. These almost make my legs feel weightless after use, which is amazing. I'm a union ironworker by trade, and after many long hours a day per week in work boots. These really help me from the fatigue of being on my feet all day long. Most of the time 15 minutes of use is good, while other days 30 minutes feels great and is needed.
These come with a battery charger and a carrying bag which is nice for travel and storage. I really do highly recommend these to anyone who works on they're feet all day and have demanding jobs like myself. These really are great with minimal effort for use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my first ever TP-Link wifi router of any kind and I absolutely like it's reliable signal throughout my home and yard. This TP-Link wifi-7 3 piece mesh system is awesome, so far after a week of use my speed and wifi distances have increased. I've had less disconnects from my routers after signals as well as better throughout coverage of all wifi signals.
I have around 51 total wired and wifi devices in and out of my home. Ranging from wifi door locks, doorbell camera, security cameras, multiple outdoor lights, tablets phones, tvs, and AV gear alike. I have all my locks and cameras on they're own signal, then my AV gear and tablets and phones are on other networks. I wasn't aware how far TP-Link has come with they're newest wifi gear, I'm happily surprised.
Setting up my mesh system was a breeze, took me around 45-60 minutes. All of my wifi devices connected to the mesh system with ease, no issues grabbing on to the signal and keeping it. I'm only using 2 of the nodes in my 1500 sp ft home, these 2 nodes give me plenty of wifi coverage.
After setup there was already a firmware update that took around 5 minutes to complete. My 300mb fiber Internet runs around 370 up and 370 down. The footprint of these nodes are reasonable, around 9 inches tall by 5 inches round. I only wish they had more Ethernet outputs instead of only 2. Thankfully I have multiple 16 port switches in my home for hardwired connections.
I highly recommend this wifi-7 mesh system by TP-link, im blown away by its performance and security.

This in my opinion a great TV for a bedroom or room where everyone watching it sits directly in front of the TV, as the more off angle you view the TV the worse the picture becomes since the panel is VA.
I gave this 55" mini led tv installed on my wall in my master bedroom, and I sit about 12' away from it directly in front of it, and it looks beautiful. If I sit in my recliner, in my bay window about 5' of to the side the picture is washed out leaving the colors dull and the picture lifeless.
This mini led 4k tv with full array local dimming can get super bright, day or night. I do not use the ambient light sensor as I like the picture to be as accurate as possible regardless of night or daytime viewing. I will say during nighttime usage this TV is a torch during bright scenes or shows. There is definitely some blooming during dark scenes around a bright object, although it's not what I'd consider distracting.
If your watching this tv straight ahead you will not be disappointed for the price. The tv has 4 HDMI inputs, 2 capable of 4k 60 hz for a 4k Blu-ray player or streaming device, and 2 capable of 4k 120 hz for say a PS5 or Xbox X. Plenty of HDMI inputs if your not using a avr with this tv.
The built in speakers and small sub on this U8N sound amazing for such a smaller tv, in my opinion it sounds as good if not better than using a separate sound bar and subwoofer. Watching Top gun Maverick in 4K on a 4K Blu-ray sounded incredible for a tvs built in speakers.
I would highly recommend getting this TV if you want want OLED colors on a mini led budget.

Always loved Norelco cordless shavers always reliable especially when you replace the blades yearly.
I've always been a fan of Norelco cordless shavers, especially ones that you can use in the shower or shaving your face when wet. They work great and always give a good shave whether you're doing touch up or shaving in the shower.
The shaver comes with the usual sideburn trimmer on the back as well as a carrying bag and a USB charging cable but no USB power brick, it seems norelco's following the smartphone industry removing the power brick.
Thankfully I have numerous Norelco trimmers and shavers so I have plenty of extra Norelco charging cables with a included power supply that work with this trimmer. This works great shaving dry or wet I've used it multiple times the blades are nice and sharp and get every hair leaving none behind, with its 5 axis turning head it gets in every spot on my neck and throat where I've had other cordless trimmers that have had issues are just a pain to use to get every single hair on your face and neck.
Hopefully this turns out to be a rigorous trimmer as my other norelco's having the past as I love to use them in the shower, I seem to get less razor burn that way versus shaving dry.

Small footprint gaming laptop, especially compared to my 5 yr old Asus gaming laptop which was much thicker. Battery life is pretty good considering the fact it has a Intel 9 series CPU and 4090 GPU.
I love the beautiful colors the oled display has compared to my many other gaming laptops of the past with a led or lcd display. Which e\were always washed out, with terrible black. The oled display on this new Asus gaming laptop has some great colors and inky looking black levels.
I love playing fortnite on this PC, it obviously handles it with ease and makes the game look so good and smooth. I need to pickup a new Asus wireless gaming mouse now to pair with this beast of a laptop.
The battery life is pretty decent when I disable the lid led strip and dim down the display brightness level. I honestly wish this looked more like gaming laptops or old vs a apple laptop. I plan to add a extra 1 tb m.2 SSD for extra storage down the road. The included 1 tb m.2 will be enough for me for games and storage as well as os updates.
I definitely recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a great gaming laptop with a OLED display.

I got this for my son to use with up his Xbox consoles. Works great with box the Xbox one S and Xbox Series X consoles. My one and only complaint about this wireless controller is it only works with the included USB dongle inserted into the charging base connected to the Xbox USB port. I wish it worked truly wirelessly with either of the Xbox consoles.
My son's favorite feature of this controller is the built in rgb on the front sides of the controller. He doesn't use the social media feature which is weird for a game controller. But this seems to do everything gaming related very well..
The built in rechargeable battery lasts for a full weekend for him which is nice. No more AA batteries to replace like in the OEM Xbox controllers. This to me seems slightly slimmer and sleeker than a standard Xbox controller.
The batteries do recharge fairly quick in my opinion. As my son seems to burn through batteries in his regular remote. To me the price is on the high side for a wireless controller, but I still recommend it.

I love the fit and finish of these over the ear headphones by Bowers & Wilkens. Not my favorite color by far, but the sound make the garrish color go away. These Bluetooth headphones paired simply with both my Samsung s22 ultra phone and my Samsung ta s9 ultra tablet. Both devices noticed the headphones before even searching for them.
The bulid quality of these headphones helps justify they're high price tag, the included matching carrying case is nice as well. I like that besides a usb-c to usb-c cable you also get a usb-c to 3.5mm cable for devices with a headphone jack.
I couldn't find any trailered sound options in the Music app by Bowers and Wilkens, I need to dive deeper into that option. As I feel these sound good but could be great with some minor tweaking in a eq app for the drivers.
The battery lasts long enough for three issues before needing to be charged, which is awesome. I find myself grabbing these over my sony 1000X4s. These really are comfortable with great sound to match.
If you have the extra cash I highly recommend giving these headphones a go.

I like this software for cleaning up photos and editing them. You can remove moles and blemishes from photos on your desktop window pc very easily with this Adobe software. There's so many different options as well. From making the photograph darker, brighter, adding and removing grain. Making the color cooler or warmer, just endless options for tweaking your perfect or not so perfect photo.
I really wish they offered a true editing app that works as the pc software does, last time the app was available was 2019 I believe. The app still works and is available just nothing new since. 2019.
I mainly use this on photos and portraits taken on mine and my wife's smartphones, as we almost never use our dslr camera anymore due to its bulkiness and extra accessories required for it to work it best. This photo editing software in my opinion is awesome and the best option for ametuer photo editors like myself.
I would highly recommend this PC photo editing software to anyone on the fence. Adobe is one of the best options in my opinion for photo editing, the price is fair as well.

A beast of a mixer.

This mixer is a beast, it weighs 48 pounds. When I brought it in off the porch I thought I might have mistakenly received two by mistake. I got this for my wife as she loves to make breads, and it looks like a high quality mixer for sure.
The auto sense is great for weighing out the contents of your mix. Everything included with this mixer is well made in my opinion except for the floppy thin plastic splatter cover. I do like how the bowl arms drop down for swapping out mixing attachments as well as for cleaning your mixing bowl.
This has multiple speed setting for easily mixing your ingredients of any dough your mixing for bread or rolls, that will easily power through it all without struggling. The Auto-Sense will tell you the exact weight of the ingredients in the mixers bowl.
If you have Alexa or Google assistant, you can connect this to your wifi and control things like the mixing speed while your hands are full baking a different dish. I'm not into cooking with smart devices, but for multitasking cooks I can see where this comes in handy.
This permanently resides on my counter as it very heavy to transport from a cabinet and to the counter.

I do like the look and power of the new pixel 8 pro with tensor 3 chip, however I miss the curved display. The curve just made the phone look more high end in my opinion vs the flat display.
I found as always switching over my Google account and details from my Samsung phone to the pixel 8 pro wirelessly was fast and simple without any issues. I'm shocked Google is still using a optical fingerprint reader vs the ultrasonic reader, but somehow managed to use facial recognition with the front facing selfie camera. The facial recognition works well except nighttime.
All the cameras take great looking photos as most all pixel phones have done over time. Night time shots look best and most natural to me vs iPhone or Samsung phones.
Battery life is really good on the pro for all-day use, charging is pretty fast whether using wired or wireless charging for me. Even though the pixel 8 pro has reverse wireless charging, inever useit or have the need to.
I used bothe the pixel watch 2 and galaxy watch 6 classic with the pixel 8 pro, I prefer the watch 6 classic for it larger size and better functionality for my needs over the pixel watch 2. I really like how well google assistant and Google home integration with the pixel 8 pro work within the Google ecosystem. From the pull down menu screens, to just simply saying "Hey Google"!
5G coverage for me on the T-Mobile network is pretty good for me with 8 pro. I usually get around 350-600gbps depending on my location. My experience with this phone has been really positive, I find all its features to be useful and easy to use.
One thing that I really like about the new pixel 8 pro was it's haptics, especially for phone calls. The new haptic motor is close to the iPhone that I've ever experienced with a Android phone. I've not heard one reviewer mention it yet, but it's definitely the best in any smartphone I've ever used. When I got my first phone call on the pixel 8pro, I was like " wow this phone really has some impressive haptics to it"!
