i got this with the expectation of it taking up less counter space and it does .. essentially half the size of a 4qt bella that i bought earlier this year .. and both works as expected ... but ...
if i put the same amount in each ,,, the larger will cook it more evenly because the basket will be half full ,, where the smaller bella basket will be full ,, thus putting the top food in the basket closer to the heating elements ... and will burn the top basket of food more easier ,, especially if you donna shake the basket half way cooking it ..
and shaking a full basket is a notta a gonna work ,,, you need to dump the whole basket out on a plate ,, shake it up and dump it back in the basket .. to finish cooking ..

i originally bought this to see ,, how good .. then for the sale price ,, and finally no subscription cost to use ..
i found this to be hard to use and play with ,, big learning curve ,, is not user friendly nor intuitive ,, and ,, which i probably could master if it was my paid job asa pro ,, as i have no fear to learn and can easily understand the nuiances of photo editing and camera settings for past 10 years now ..and my computer experience goes back to the dark ages of dos ..
so for the past 10 years ,, i been using free photo editing software that's very easy to use and learn and friendly and quick .. so compared to adobe elements ,, there is little in feature differences .. just to make this a short review .. if you wanted more capabilities ,, you need to buy big bucks full adobe software experience .. ha ,,,
for the limits of this adobe package ,, the cost and features means you pay to be tortured for simple photo editing and spend a lot of time to do .. if photo editing is a hobby for you . ..

i purposely try not to read reviews or look at video of movies before actually watching the whole movie ,, so seeing this for first time .. i now agree with the low reviews of WW1984 after seeing this ,,, there were only 3-4 actions parts and obviously cgi to look pretty only ,, and that's it .. with zero empathy for anyone watching . .
after the opening scene which was short entertainment ,, then for the first hour ,,, i was and kept looking at my clock to see how long i been watching ,,, and that first hour was long which tells you how bad -- the acting ,, the dialog, the plot, the characters just all looked fake .. i particularly donna like actors speaking so softly that i canna understand what they are saying ,, and my sound system was cranked up too .. ha ..
i then paused the movie to make dinner and came back a few days later to see the last hour .. good thing i only paid $5 for this 4k ... i may watch this again ,, when i am more bored with absolutely nuthing else to do ..

if you are taking macro shots ,, using this mounted on tripod seems to be the best way to hold the phone steady .. i just canna do it holding it with my hands ..
when taken out of the box ,, i could not get the jaws to open to hold the phone ,, and even opening a 2nd new box at the store ,, it was the same thing ,,
you need to loosen the knob and use a lot of force to get it to widen it free then it works without any further issue ... it's also the same knob that control the rotating tilt of 90 degrees .. and the 2nd longer knob is only for tilting up and down which is no problem ..
the jaws have a soft rubbery nonslip that hold the phone nice and tight ,, that i have lots of confidence that the phone will not slip out .. if it didn't ,, i would not have bought this ..

The advertisement claims the complete accessories, but the actual package is missing a couple accessories, blade oil and cleaning brush. I returned it and got another one from a local BestBuy and same issue. Why the package is not as advertised?
the one i purchased ,, all the accessories were in a sealed clear plastic bag ,, if you get a box with all loose accessories not in a sealed bag ,, i guess you now know what ..

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 have 4 TV's wired for cable & trying to switch to antenna. Purchased RF-G1179 splitter. Installed antenna & plugged antenna cable into INPUT, & connected power. When I disconnect first TV cable wire & plug into output can't scan any channels no signal??
it looks like you are doing a first time ota tv antenna , either indoor or outdoor ,, you may need to point your antenna to transmitting tower .. and get a signal ,, if weak , then the amp will boost the signals .. if you have no signal the amp will do nothing ..

Aspherical lens elements ensure less distortion in the corners of the image without affecting the centers, and a continuous f/2.8 aperture means this lens is fast.

Would like to use this lens to photograph the Grand Canyon. I am an amateur photographer with an EOS Rebel SL1. Would I be able to use this lens with this camera & have it on auto focus? Thank you for your time.
if your question is real ,, my personal = no ,, for many reasons ...you would not understand based on your experience level ..
if you can spend $2k lens with $400 camera ,, i would recommend getting a bridge camera like a nikon p1000 or p500 series ..
and have way more of a camera setup for your experience level to use and save you at least $1000 ...
if you just a lens recommendation , i see bestbuy has the Sigma 8-16mm as a better match for you level and camera ,, to just answer your question which is for the wide angle view and auto ..and save you about $1300 .. .

Its 9-foot length lets you run the lightweight cable around the room for versatile placement, and the three grounded outlets provide extra charging points. This 16-gauge Insignia extension cord has a PVC coating for long-lasting use, and the easy-grip plug is quick to remove.
wall outlet is a two prong is there any extension cords that will fit in two prong but be able to plug a grounded cord from a tv lets say
you are better off just changing the old wall 2 prong outlet ,, home depot -lowes or hardware store sells 3 prongs ,, swap out your old and connect the ground ,, and you are not just better off but safer too
