For many years we had a Mr. Coffee cappuccino maker(inexpensive and good value) but that machine failed us after many years of much use so we upgraded to the newer model. After having that model replaced twice in a year because it literally blew up and coffee grounds and broken glass was everywhere, I decided to upgrade to a better brand. So far, I've been happy with the quality of this machine and the quality of the cappuccino. The only thing I don't like is the lack of measurable distance between the dispenser and the base. You cannot put a cup under it that is even of medium size so you do have to purchase those tiny cups that will fit under it. It's deceiving from the photo because the cups look to be at least of medium size. On the other hand, a shot of espresso is what it really makes room for so if you have a couple of shot glasses they would work equally as well as the tiny espresso cups.

Seems to do the job it's supposed to do. We only have 3 HDMI inputs in our 11 year old DLP TV and this enables us to utilize more products with the TV.

My mother likes to serve wine and enjoys drinking wine. She was having a rough time opening the bottles with the newer wine bottle openers so I saw this and bought it for her. So far, it does the job with ease.

I got super lucky with an open box item. Our 14 year old washer was broken and we needed a new one fast. After much research, no local store had the top loader that was highly rated. I saw this on CR and never looked back. They were able to deliver at 8 AM the next morning. So far so good.

I needed this speaker to play Christmas music for a living Nativity with animals that I planned for our school. I saved a playlist on my music app and easily paired my tablet with it. I charged up the speaker and placed it and the tablet behind the Nativity and set it to play the playlist. For 4 hours it played and the battery light didn't even appear drained. I also used the microphone to make an announcement and it did the job!

So far, so good. I helped my mom set this up by putting one of these on her keys and the other in her wallet. We tested them but what we found to be a possible issue is the volume is too low and the pitch is too high for an elderly person. As we age, we can't hear higher pitches. I like the idea. We'll see if she remembers what to do if she can't find her bag. She'll need to remember to get her phone and open the app and follow instructions. She's pretty good with technology at her age but she forgets easily.

We needed a new home printer since our 3-year old Canon just decided to come up with an error message that Canon said wasn't worth sending in to be repaired. "It's cheaper to get a new one." Sadly, I'm not a fan of getting rid of broken things. We live in a throw-away society and I prefer to fix things but couldn't fix something else once again since parts are expensive. After researching I decided on this printer. The specs and price were right. I like that I can print from it off site. I like that I can send a print job from my phone. I like that I signed up for 5 free months of printer cartridge replacement. I also like that there are only 2 cartridges, black and multi and they're MUCH less expensive than the Canon printer. I REALLY liked the price! I ran an auction the other day and had to print out 200 auction cards with photos. Not one single problem.

I had the Charge 2+ but after a year+ it would no longer charge so, luckily I had the Geek Squad warranty and exchanged it with the Charge 3. This is beefier than the Charge 2+ and louder. The quality of the sound seems to be lacking when the volume goes up but it's not such a big deal unless you're very particular. All in all, so far, I think I like it better because the sound carries farther in our yard.

My Asian friends had something here. When I was in Graduate school many years ago most of my friends from Asian countries had a smaller version of this and now I know why. This cooks the rice at the right consistency every time and it keeps it warm without burning. I have yet to use the steamer option or cooking other foods but I'll update when I do.

My screen just went blank and can't do anything about it. I tried reset it so many times but still blank. That happens on after two months of using. How do I fix it?

Call HP. There is a warranty on it.
