Exceeded my expectations. Easy and quick to set up/install even for this 72 year old tech illiterate grandma. Once Comcast blessed it, I had all my devices up and going in jig time. All that without my having to take a quick course at YouTube U. I am oldER woman, hear me roar!

I would recommend this to a friend!

LG - 28" Class LED HD TV

Enjoy your favorite content in HD quality with this LG 28-inch 720p TV. LED backlighting provides a crisp, colorful picture, and the size is a perfect fit for a bedroom or den. This LG 28-inch 720p TV also supports HDMI connections for high-quality audio and video over a single cable.

I have a Roku Voice Pro remote control that can control all the functions of a TV remote control...on SOME models. Something about HDMI-CEC enabled TV...way over my "tech disabled" head. Does this TV have that capability?

It supports 4K Ultra HD resolution and Dolby TrueHD for clear, colorful pictures and dynamic sound, and its 18 Gbps of bandwidth ensures fast signal transmission.

Will this cable serve as the CEC feature that is not on some TVs? I want to be able to pair my Roku Voice remote with my TV that is not CEC enabled.

Roku Voice Remote for Roku Players, Roku TV, and Roku Streambars - Black

Search and switch between entertainment channels easily with this Roku TV voice remote. The side buttons are positioned for intuitive control when adjusting the volume level or muting audio, while the preset shortcut buttons allow easy access to popular streaming channels within seconds. This battery-powered Roku TV voice remote features a microphone button for voice-activated controls.

The description lists a number of Roku players this remote will work with. The asterik after that paragraph says it may not work with some earlier Rokus. How are we supposed to the Roku player(s) it does NOT work with? My Roku is model 4210X.

LG - 28" Class LED HD TV

My current tv receives its signal from Suddenlink cable through the HDMI port number 3. But this model of LG only has 2 HDMI ports. Will I be able to connect using either the number 1 or 2 HDMI port on this LG tv?

The answer to your question is yes. Please accept my condolences having SuddenLink as your provider.

LG - 28" Class LED HD TV

Does the HDMI on this TV support HDMI-CEC so that it will turn on and off with an Apple TV remote?

So....if SIMPLINK is this TV's version of CEC can I assume SIMPLINK will act as CEC and enable the user to pair, say, the Roku Voice Pro Remote with this TV and thereby enable the user to use the Roku remote to control all the TV's function....on/off, switch channels, control volume. Right?

Roku - Streaming Stick+ 4K Streaming Device with Roku Voice Remote and TV Controls

Enjoy nonstop entertainment with the Roku Streaming Stick+. Its wireless receiver provides a strong signal for smooth streaming in rooms far from the router, and it supports 4K, HD and HDR resolutions for crisp, colorful pictures. Take this compact Roku Streaming Stick+ with you on vacation for enjoying shows away from home.

Can I watch the local news and other local channels (i.e., with the regular antennae)?

As for Locast, it isn't available all over the country, only in "select" cities. I live in Memphis, TN, and Locast isn't available here...and isn't on their current list of "to-do" cities. There's a list of cities Locast is available in on their website.

Insignia™ - 10.5 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator - Stainless Steel

Keep produce fresh and easily accessible with this Insignia 10.5-cu. ft. top-mount stainless refrigerator. The spacious interior provides ample room for foods, making it an ideal choice for families or roommates. This Insignia 10.5-cu. ft. top-mount stainless refrigerator features adjustable shelving for accommodating a wide range of food sizes, and the removable crisper design makes cleaning simple.

Does this refrigerator defrost itself. Or goes ice build up and then you have to use a hair dryer to defrost it.. Can I see a comparison of this one and the 9.9

Best Answer

The description says "frost free", meaning you do NOT have to defrost it. The person (Alexandra or something like that) is supposedly a Best Buy or brand maker of this fridge is either wrong or the description is wrong. Very confusing. Best Buy or the maker should get their act together when describing it and/or answering a simple question.
