I bought this with a matching mouse.
I could not get it to keep the default light settings. I use a KVM every time I swapped screens it went into a rainbow pattern.
So I returned it. Nice keyboard

I bought this with a matching keyboard. I actually bought the black one, but BB could not find it in the store so they swapped out the white one.
I don't know if was me or the software, but I could not get it to keep the default light settings. I use a KVM every time I swapped screens it went into a rainbow pattern.
So I returned it. Nice mouse otherwise.

Writing a review for an extinct product, but maybe Samsung will come up with something like this again.
We remodeled our kitchen and wanted a big but not industrial kitchen sized fridge. This was the biggest we could find and we love it.
We love the minimalist look. (no screens)
We love the recessed Handles (nothing sticking out)
We love the micro perforated hidden display (so do our guest)
We love the Flex Qtr, and use it for parties just like suggested.
We love that there is no buttons to press to swich from ice to water.
The flexible shelves are great. We were nervious about some of the negative reviews about the ice maker so we got a Best Buy extended warranty just in case.
We almost lost out on the last one in the world.
We ordered it, and had customer cabinets built around where it would go. Our remodel project took too long to complete (1 year past due) and even though we had paid in advance it was misplaced at the warehouse. They showed one in stock but could not locate it. It turns out the model was discontinued with no direct replacement. Best buy normally returns unsold consignment stock, but we lucked out in that this was in some obscure corner of a warehouse in Chicago.
So it all ended well and we love it.

Zero Complaints, 1 year in it still works like new. Does a great job, and I honestly usually can't tell if it is running. We run it at least 1 time per day and sometimes more.
I love the fact that the controls are hidden it has a nice clean looks and matches our other KitchenAid appliances nicely.
We don't use the top "extra row" very often, so I would not look for that extra feature or consider that a must have.
When we do use it, we usually forget we put something there until we can't find whatever it was and think to look in the dishwasher after it has been washed 20 times.

It looks great, the oven performs well. I have no problems recommending this. It is our "overflow" oven, but primary microwave. We get lots of compliments on it. Most guest dont realize it is a microwave oven combo, they just think it is a double oven.
The oven is used mostly for proofing bread, does a great job.
The microwave started out great, but after a little more than a year of use it has lost a lot of power. Here is my example.
It used to take 45 seconds to heat my single serving "microwave" lava cake from the grocery store (starts with K). Now it takes about 1:15. This is pretty much the same across the board. 30 seconds for oatmeal is now 45 seconds and so on.
I will take out all the elements and do a through cleaning to see is extra splatter is somehow absorbing the rays. We did have a stick of butter and a potato explode in the past, so maybe there is something hidden somewhere.
CONTROLS:
There is a quick start (1:00) and I mostly use that, but the controls are a multiple choice quiz nightmare when you just want to nuke some food.
There are so many buttons (both for Micro and Oven) you really have to pay attention.
Example: Softening a frozen desert.
Press: Soften
Wait for it to scroll through several options (butter, icecream, etc)
Press: 3 for Ice Cream (closest to what I had)
Wait for it to scroll through several option
Press Size
Press Start
OK, does not sound like much but doing these 3-4 choices every time you use it is a little annoying. Warm, (what to you want to warm), Defrost, (what do you want to defrost), and so on. Baking, (Do you want rapid or slow preheat), Convection bake, (do you want me to re-calc the temp) and on and on.
Finally, I wish there were a backlight on the buttons. We have an "open concept" layout where the kitchen is in full view of the living room and family room. If the family is watching a movie (with all the lights out) and I want to nuke a snack, I have to blind everyone with the kitchen lights. Same in the AM if I am cooking my breakfast, I don't want to have to turn on the overhead lights while I am enjoying the relative peaceful morning darkness.
Again, these are all minor nits, I've never found the perfect appliance, especially microwave controls.
Overall I would recommend the unit.

Like many others have written, this is just a great controller. I use it wirelessly with BlueTooth on my Desktop Computer. I am new to gaming and I wanted something solid and reliable. I bought this in May, I am still on my first set of batteries. I am only doing casual gaming with No Mans Sky, so I can't really speak to latency and other high performance gaming topics. Would recommend.

What is the weight capacity of the "middle" rack? We have heavy glasses and dishes, and a different high end brand is on its 3rd replacement middle rack in 5 years.

A compact, foldable design weighing under 249 g makes DJI Mini 3 a great companion on any outing. Capture in 4K HDR, and with an extended battery life of up to 40 minutes, you can capture your surroundings in stunning detail without worrying about low battery.
 

What is the difference between the dgi mini 3 and the dgi mini 3 pro?

Check the dji website it allows side by side comparisons for details.

Main difference is no collision avoidance.

Everything else is slightly diminished. Like shooting in 4K30 vs 4K60 and so on.

Also no follow me mode

Pushing far beyond the upper bounds of smaller rig configurations while keeping things cool and whisper quiet, the Legion Tower 5 is a marvel of build and design, accentuated by its illuminated blue LED logo and lighting, as well a transparent side panel that can properly showcase your internals.
 

I've heard that 400w power supply isn't enough for this pc but that's what it comes with, is it complicated to upgrade a PSU? Should I buy this one now and wait a week for it or wait for another better pc for who knows how long? (It's my first pc so. . .)

The system is a great value.

I installed the EVGA 850 watt PS from Bestbuy. It was very easy. I suggest getting a PS with modular accessory cables so you can leave all the extra unused cables out of the PC.

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the power supply or graphics card? I want to upgrade them at some point but I don't know what will fit.

Any standard PS will fit. The issue it all the extra cables,. I suggest getting a PS with modular accessory cables so you can leave most of the unused cables outside the case.

I put in an ASUS 2.7 slot 3070 and it fits just fine with the exception that it covers the SATA ports at the edge of the MB so you have to find right angle SATA cables.

Does this model have a treble/bass control to permit selection to preferred tone level ?

It does not have a true Mixer / Equalizer exactly, but it does have "Base Ext" and "Sub Woofer Levels" for some adjustment. For everyday listening I have the Sub @ minus 4. For Movies + 1.
