Decent Stand for the Price
Customer Rating
4.0
This is a nice looking stand and pretty solid. Obviously for this price it's not solid wood but you can't expect it to be. The first one I received had been damaged in shipping so I had to return it for a replacement but otherwise I'm very happy with the stand. Looks nice and holds my A/V components just fine.

This is the second set of Sanus speaker stands I've owned. The first were nearly identical from over 10 years ago. They're nice looking and well made. They are well packaged and come out of the box in perfect shape, no nicks and scratches like some cheap stuff these days. Very nice stands overall.

I bought the Google Home for my parents after reading reviews comparing the Echo and the Home. I selected the Home because the Echo is really targeted more at sales of Amazon products and services currently. The Home is more like the Google app on your phone. It can answer an array of various questions, play music, tell you the weather, etc. My folks absolutely love it. The highlight for them has been the free trail of You Tube Red. I hesitated to even set it up for them since I wasn't sure they'd really use it but after getting set up it's their favorite feature. The sound is remarkably good from such a small unit as well. The Google Home was the biggest hit of all of the Christmas presents.

I purchased the Roku stick mainly for viewing movies stored on my Pkex server. I can easily move it around the house to whichever TV or room I am watching in that day and it instantly connects and streams flawlessly. Never had a single issue with it.

JAM - Plus Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Dark Blue
Capable of wirelessly streaming music from a Bluetooth-enabled device, this Jam Plus HX-P240DL wireless speaker's compact size enables simple portability. The speaker supports stereo pairing for added acoustic depth.
Not bad for the size and price
Customer Rating

I bought this for my son who's 9 so he could stream his music from his mp3 player around the house or wherever he wants to go. I wanted something not too expensive in case it gets dropped or lost but at the same time I didn't want something that sounded so bad I couldn't stand to hear it. This was a decent compromise. It's easy to set up and use and has moderate volume without going too loud. Sound quality is reasonable for the price.

Customer Rating

This card came included with the Canon DSLR camera we bought. I assumed it would be a basic starter card that would only hold a few pictures to get you started before having to upgrade. Boy was I wrong. This is a full featured, great performing data card. The speed is great and at 16GB it holds loads of images, even at 20 megapixel resolution.

Plus, a variety of automatic functions optimize settings for your given subject type, lighting conditions and desired effects, to make this a highly user-friendly camera.Memory card sold separately.
Excellent Intermediate Level Camera
Customer Rating
5.0
I looked at several different cameras but was focused mainly on the Canon line as I had a pont & shoot Canon and was familiar with how they worked. Comparing the range across the Canon Rebel line and even looking at the first step in the upper level, the T5i gives the best feature set for an intermediate photographer at a good price point. It's as easy to use as my P&S but gives a much better image. The clarity and depth of focus across the entire image is a huge improvement. We've gotten tons of compliments on the photos we've shared with friends and family. Our only regret is not buying this camera sooner!

What's great about it: Quality MS product
What's not so great: None
I was unsure I wanted to make the jump up to Office '13 since I didn't want to have a different version of my Office products at home vs. work but after installing it and getting familiar with the minor changes I've got to say it was a pretty easy transition. No major redesign, just a little refinement and a few added functions. My recommendation is don't put off the upgrade if the opportunity comes along. You'll need to make the jump eventually and it's not so bad.

What's great about it: Image quality is outstanding
What's not so great: Would like to see USB ports added
We replaced a faithful but outdated Samsung 730B LCD monitor with this Dell for under $150. The image quality on this monitor is just stunning. Clarity is excellent and color is very accurate. The IPS construction produces excellent viewing from every angle and the LED illumination is bright but not overpowering. One item to be aware of is that the screen is a gloss finish, not matte. This improves the colors displayed but does make the screen prone to reflection from adjacent windows or other light sources. If you have a bright room and are bothered by this you may want to consider another screen option. Lastly I'd like to see a USB hub option but even at the higher end it appears Dell has discontinued including these.

What's great about it: Reliable and easy to use
What's not so great: A little more money for plug-in convenience
We live in a medium-sized two-story home. Like many newer homes the cable and internet enter the home in the basement. With this setup it's easiest to place your router at this location but your wireless signal suffers. We placed the extender on the other side of the house on the first floor and now we have a strong signal throughout. For added convenience we can even move the extender to the back of the house for coverage out on the patio. Simply plug it in and the extender automatically reconnects to the system once it's been set up. Works great with the Netgear router.
