Nice knives at the sale price. I like having a sheath for each one. I have a drawerful of miscellaneous knives that I've set aside to see if I can replace them with this set. I like the colors and they are comfortable and secure to hold.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good TV recently on sale for $69.99. I have it connected to external amplified speaker through the earphone jack although the standard speakers are good enough for a small room. I have it connected to an antenna in my attic and use the composite inputs for a VCR. I have fire sticks and smart TVs in other rooms, but I just needed something that would turn on quickly so I could watch the news (broadcast or taped) while I work in the kitchen. Nice picture. I have both 720 and 1080 TVs and can't really tell the difference. I own 5 Insignia TVs, the oldest is 9 yrs. Good products.

Bought this for my bedroom to replace 19" Admiral. Just plug into wall, attach outside antenna cable, link to wifi, and it's ready with no other connections necessary for Prime. In my case I also added a signal splitter so I can have the broadcast signal go to both the tv and a digital converter box connected to a vcr with cables to tv. Good sound, great picture. Offers a lot of viewing options.

Makes coffee. Really, how difficult is that? Lid has to be pried off with a knife so I can occasionally throw it in the dishwasher. Programming works but I rarely use that feature. Good price. Does the job.

Only thing I find lacking is an audio input jack. Volume control is a bit touchy when adjusting to a low volume. Sound is very good and easily fills my garage. No trouble playing tapes or attaching mp3 player. Nice to have the option to still play audio tapes.

Stopped using this after about 3 weeks. I only keep it for backup. Don't really like it's shape. Only works decently with new batteries which translates to about 2 weeks. Would not buy again or recommend.

Wireless mice are nice but they have to be fed batteries regularly. This mouse performs well and has great audible feedback. I don't mind the wire at all. Great deal.

Replaced 24" Westinghouse 1080TV which I had been using as a monitor. The tv was a great monitor, but I decided to return it to tv duty when this Acer was on sale. Once set up to my liking I am pleased with the display on the Acer. Easy setup and adjustment. Good deal.

Connect up to 4 devices to the coaxial connection from your cable or indoor/outdoor VHF/UHF/FM antenna with this mini drop amplifier. It works with the DC power provided by components, or with the AC power provided by the included adapter.

I canceled my order for an outside antenna and first wanted to try an amplifier on my attic antenna. As others have suggested I connected the amplifier to the antenna lead rather than using it in the room where one of my TVs is located. This, of course, has the effect of boosting the signal to all 4 TVs which are connected to the antenna. I made a 1/2" hole in my garage ceiling so I could run the female connector into the attic, then I connected the other end to a lightweight 12' extension cord and an outlet in the garage.
I still use a VCR through a converter box. Weekdays I tape BBC, Newsline, or DW news on PBS so I don't have to watch the awful broadcast network news which seems to be about 12 minutes of news crammed into a half hour of commercials.
Before installing the amplifier PBS, NBC, and Fox were marginal, sometimes OK but more frequently breaking up. My digital to analog converter box showed a signal strength of 10% for PBS. After connecting the amplifier and re-scanning, the signal strength is now 50-60%. Not one problem with the signals now. I can even pick up more stations that I don't want to view.
I purchased this as a certified return item. It is excellent, cheaper and much easier to install than an outdoor antenna, and saved me the hassle of crawling on my roof.

I use these a lot. I always though 8g was plenty until I started backing up my music. Now 32g is the minimum for me. I'm sure I'll upgrade to 64g or more in a few years. Nice the way the prices keep coming down as capacity increases.

I’m using the fire stick on my TV if I buy that one can I download any app I want so I don’t have to plug the fire stick on the back and watch those channels for free I have like 600 channels right now on the fire stick....

Any app downloaded to fire stick can also be downloaded to this tv. I have fire sticks on my other 4 tvs. I don't notice any difference between this tv and my other tvs.

Just bought one. Does the carafe lid snap on and off for cleaning purposes. I am reluctant to try for fear that I'll break it.

With lid sitting (not raised) on carafe, use dinner knife to pry up one side to gently raise lid off pin it rotates on. Then move knife over to other pin and lever the lid off.
