...Let's check what it says it does against what it really does.
Works as a fan? Check!
Purifies the air? CHECK!
Can be started and stopped from work (nowhere near home!) via the app? Yup!
Filters work? You BETCHA! I recently replaced the filters on my TP02 and DP04 and they were full of filterized out junque. I've got complete confidence in Dyson technology!
Looks cool while just sitting there? Why yes...Yes it does! My wife likes it for that reason alone but also because of the next factor.
Quality? After nearly a year of using a DP04 and a TP02 I have zero doubts about the quality of Dyson products, so...YES!
Worthy my money? Definitely. Highly recommended.

I've used these for a couple of years now and just bought three more pair (I lost one somewhere at home!). They work . That's it.
THEY WORK.
The case can be stuck to your cell phone case or just carried in a shirt pocket. The only problem is if I set them down outside of their case and forget where I put them. They kinda blend in because they are clear and really thin. They are worth it.

I've had this for quite a while now and it has done exactly what it is built to do without fail. So...I bought four more Dyson air purifiers. Two TP01 models, one TP02 model and most recently one TP04 model.
And I am about to purchase at least one more of the DP04 models. Maybe two as my older brother and his wife suffer from allergies and I think the DP04 would provide excellent relief in their home.
Highly recommended? Yup. I don't buy junque and Dyson makes an excellent product.

This is a fine laptop. Fast. Quiet. Cool running too, even when charging on my lap as I work. But...Like another laptop I had it also loses the touchscreen feature several times an hour. I have to close the program and reopen it and hope it stops. It does not. This is getting old fast and I have a few days left to return it as I am in the ElitePlus category but I don't want to return it I want it to work.
The only other problem it has is when watching a movie or even a video and I enlarge the screen the top of the screen splits and wavers with the upper image. I don't know how else to explain this but I know it should not do this.
I would still recommend it to friends and family because I am hoping this stupid touchscreen problem can be rectified by firmware and the same with the weirdo screen problem I mentioned. And yes, I have done every update under the sun so far, LOL!

Other than a recurring (a LOT) problem with the touch screen not working, this is the best laptop I have owned!
Fast? At 5 GHz I have a wireless download speed of 500+ mbps.
How's the screen? EXCELLENTE'!
Keyboard? Superb-A-Mundo!
Highly recommended in spite of the screen glitch which just means I'll exchange it for another one. This laptop is that good!

I already own this great little 'botcuum and so I bought this one for my daughter and her family.
That says it all. I don't give junque and this vacuum is really a gem. Of course I named mine "Bob" and they christened theirs "Ed" as in the wonderful cartoon character from "Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy".
Like Bob, Ed gets the job done and keeps the floors cleaned without a problemo baby sister!!!!

Is the film dated? Heck no! It's got Burt Reynolds and Sally Fields along with Jerry Reid and the coolest car of it's time, that Pontiac Trans Am.
No PCBS to be seen or heard and everyone in this film and in the USA is a fan of Country Music (NOT that hick-hop junque that is foisted on us today) and The Bandit. You can see the love in the eyes of Fields and Reynolds every time they look at one another. You can see just how much fun this film was to make and how everyone associated with it was alive with the moments they were putting down on celluloid for generations to come to watch and enjoy.
Highly recommended? Indeed.

 Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you’re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you’ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
 

Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8” Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
 

Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

Turn your smartphone into an entertainment controller with this Kenwood digital multimedia receiver. USB Rapid Charge devices charge faster than average and, because of Bluetooth phone pairing, you can play audio on two devices at once. The iDatalink Maestro RR on this Kenwood digital multimedia receiver lets you seamlessly interface with satellite radio.Geek Squad® installation is strongly recommended for this product. Please visit your local Best Buy store for details.
 

Oddly enough, I had to LOG OUT of my BB account to ask a question... I have this unit and today I may take it back. I have to keep disconnecting and reconnecting it to make a freaking phone call or receive a text. Kenwood? Do I NEED TO SPEND MORE?

To the Kenwood exper - I have an appointment with BB Car Installation on Jan. 11, 2020. I went there last weekend and the problem persisted in front of three technicians so hopefully they will just install a new unit that works. My phone works just fine in my 2018 Dodge Ram with Android Auto so I too think it is a faulty radio. Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Where is the serial number on the ACC1200?

It should be located on a sticker on the unit. Said sticker should also have the password and the MAC address on there. Just make certain to look for "Serial No.", "SN" or some such identifying nomenclature. Hope this helps! Thx!

Would it be beneficial to use more than one extender? What if I were to put a couple upstairs and a couple more downstairs?

I myself use two of these at different locations of our home. They work great and as I said in answering another question, if you have a device that is not WiFi capable but it has an RJ45 input jack, you can simply run a Cat5 or Cat6 cable directly from one of the RJ45 output jacks on the extender to the device and it will work just fine! All the best!

Will this help extend the signal for all my ring cameras

If you search for this particular extender and then enter the password it should do just what you need. Remember to look for the name of your original WiFi router with an _2GEXT or an _5GEXT after it. If your device sees both, choose the one with the best signal strength accordingly matched to everything else in your setup.

Can this handle the new fiber 200gb speed internet i have from metronet

I don't have the specs in front of me but I think the unit is "only" Gigbit capable. My fastest is a mere 400 to 500 mbps via wireless. It's more than sufficient for me but your needs may require more. :-) If you need 200 megabits per second vs 200 gigabits per second (it may have been a typo on your part?) you should be fine with this extender.

I have everything hooked up, the green light is on the Netgear device. However, when I now go to my laptop to connect the wifi, it doesn't except the password that I use for my original wifi (Belkin) router. So, what am I to enter as the password?

If you have a 2.5 and 5 gig system make certain both indicator lights are green. No then, if you are using your original (Belkin) wireless router and haven't changed that password, it should still work. Check that router to see if you are using the right password (it's usually on the side or bottom of the router) as I have often forgotten it and had to go back and look to make certain I was entering it correctly. Another thing you can do if whatever you are trying to connect is close to the new Netgear device is to simply hardwire it via a short Cat5 or Cat6 cable via one of the ports on the Netgear to the network RJ45 input (provided said device has one) on the device you want to join your network. That's just one reason I bought this Netgear extender, because not all my stuff is wireless and this extended allows me to run a Cat5/6 right to such devices. . I did this with one of my devices and it works great! All the best!

Bose - SoundWear™ Companion® Sweat and Water Resistant Cover - Blue
Don't worry about a little rain, dust or a lot of sun. Both the Bose SoundWear Companion wearable speaker and the high-quality speaker cover are sweat- and weather-resistant, so moisture won't sneak through and dust won't stick to it. And the cover is four-way stretchable, so it fits the speaker snugly.
 

How long does the charge last.

For me and my brother, sister-in-law and my son, about 10 to 12 hours. So far. Sweet!

Does it support aptx-LL??? What version of Bluetooth is used? I can't find that info anywhere...

I don't believe so but if you believe you can tell the difference in the various variations of Bluetoof then you've got better ears than me! In all honesty, I think, not feel, these 'phones do an excellent job of reproducing music. I listen to a lot of music and these do not wear me out like some 'phones are prone to do. If that variant of Bluetoof is important to you, double check with Bose my friend! Good luck and all the best!

Hello, has anyone used them in the gym? Please opinions.

Yup. I just tuck 'em under my t-shirt and keep the volume low. So far, so great. Good luck!

I am very small. Will this Soundware companion be comfortable and can I lie down with it on to listen in bed?

I don't wear mine in bed but a friend and co-worker has done so and says he felt no discomfort. His neck is probably on the small side. Mine is around 19" or so but the Bose²® Soundwear Companion™ fits me well and is comfortable enough for me to wear for several hours. I just haven't fallen asleep with it on. Yet. ;-)
