I got it to finally work and now some how lost the link between plug and Alexa and the Kasa app.
Two plug feature is good, and extra length cord is perfect. Set up a bit challenging. I have to place plug by my router first in order to link to my WiFi.

Bigger is better, but I honestly did not think the Q series was worth the added cost. However I am not the gamer, my husband is.
It claims to have apple app but the apple app does not function the way the Apple TV would. Easily rectified by buying another Apple TV and adding it to this tv.
Also this tv does not allow you to just download any app. There were a lot of apps that I had on my Apple TV that I could not just download.
Last the remote...mmmmm not a fan and you need it to blue too the another remote. Once another remote is blue toothed to tv, you have to accept it each initial use and you need the original remote to do.
Last I was never able to manipulate tv using the “smart thing” app. Not a fan.
If you want a Samsung, then don’t bother with a Q series and save about half the price.

This super blow dryer is amazing. Huge difference in power that effectS how my hair dries.
I love the results. However you still need to know how to blow dry. If you don’t know how to blow dry, a $400 blow dryer is not going to make you better lol.

It has additional pieces to alter air flow. It dries your hair faster which cuts down frizz tremendously.

This case has both silicon inner case for cushion WHEN your phone falls, and hard outer case for durability WHEN your phone falls. You must have both when burying a case. The additional pop feature for selfies is worth it however it does keep the back of the phone from being completely flush when the pop button is closed and it may effect mounting of phone on some phone holders.
I would have preferred more colors to choose from.

I was nervous getting this because I thought it would be challenging to install. I watched a tube video just in case, and felt more comfortable. It was easy and the quality of lighting is powerful. The ability to manipulate lighting is amazing, it hold every color scheme. My ONLY 2 complaints are...
1. The adapter which controls the light and is the power source, can only be obtained in this box, thus buying an extension strip renders the extension useless unless you added it to this main light strip.
2. Once you cut the strip for proper fitting, that portion of cut strip can not be used.

It takes more than a god to fall to crack a zagg screen however two things,
first zagg will replace the screen saver if cracked so make sure to register with zagg (you have to pay S/H)
Two, the screen saVer will crack but most of the time the phone screen will not.

I have both the iroomba S9+ and the Iroomba S7. Bought both within 6 months of each other.
The 9 is more powerful then the 7. It also is more thorough. Although I have hardwood floors now, I felt the last series I had, 800s actually sucked up more and more completely. My complaint with the 7 was that I felt it left behind dirt. It functions better when I made it do two passes before checking that a room as cleaned. With the 9 I feel it cleans more thoroughly HOWEVER both have the same deficiency, both tend to leave debris around the base. I don’t know if it’s because roomba is concentration on getting on the docking station over vacuuming or if it actually stops vacuuming when trying to dock, but there is debris that will never get cleaned around the base.

Also note the docking station is not interchangeable with the 7&9 because both are uniquely different.
Both automatic emptying station are very loud when emptying but that does not bother my household. I found 7 had a hard time to dock automatically but I have no issues with the 9 as of yet. Except at initial set up see below.

Phone and Alexa control is an extreme improvement and Valuable tool. Alexa can run both iroomba sand distinguish between them.
Initial set up I had to call the company due to charging issues and customer service was very helpful. Simple battery fix.

Cost to install when it replaces same size TV wall mounted
Install it yourself, it’s fairly easy. I have installed 4 TVs on my wall as a beginner.
If your using the same mount and you feel uncomfortable lifting and mounting on the mount, ask your Neighboor and give him a beer or two. If you pay anything else, you are over paying.
I’m a 125 lb 48 year woman, and it was easy to mount a 59 inch tv with a second pair of hands to lift.

What are the actual dimension of the mount itself? I am hanging above the fire place and have a stud in the middle and then 16" both ways so I need a mount that the length is at least 32"

Would you say the automatic dirt disposal is a must have?
This is my 3rd Roomba and I would say yes. However the auto dirt disposal is louder than I expected. Yet this does not bother me.
The reason I love this new feature is because it empties directly when it’s done cleaning and when it re- docks itself to the docking station. This new features eliminates the need to dump your iroomba manually which generates the dirt into the air and sometimes all over the place while dumping it.
I would recommend if your going to spend the money for one of the I7 or I9 models, spend the additional to get Auto vacuum feature.

LG - 4.5 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Smart Front Load Washer with Steam and 6Motion Technology - White
When you've got the power of steam, you've got the power to clean-from serious grime to your most delicate fabrics. The Allergiene cycle uses gentle yet deeply penetrating steam to remove over 95% of pet dander allergens. Simplify your laundry to-do list and access key LG washer features remotely using ThinQ technology. And, master multi-taskers take note: This LG washer is TWIN Wash System compatible, which means you can add the ingenious LG SideKick pedestal washer to tackle two loads of laundry—both large and small—all at the same time.
How do you keep the washer odor free?
I keep the washer door slightly open when not in use so air can properly dry the inside of the washer however I will say lately I find my clothes have a musty order smell if my clothes are left in the washer for any short prior of time after a wash is complete. I am not happy with this washer so if you can return it, do so!
