Dyson - TP04 Pure Cool Tower 800 Sq. Ft. Air Purifier - White/Silver

Only the Dyson purifying fan is designed and tested to do all of this.**Dyson technology helps create a cleaner, healthier home - Our vacuums and purifiers are scientifically proven to capture particles as small as allergens and bacteria.

...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!

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.

Bring vibrant visuals to your screen anywhere, anytime with the versatility of a 360 degree hinge, long battery life and simultaneous pen and touch support.
Can the battery be replaced? Is the battery rechargeable via USB? Can the RAM be upgraded? And finally, what is the rating on the NITS for this unit? My 4K gaming laptop is getting the battery replaced now by Best Buy and it is only 2.5 years old.

The Pioneer GM-DX874 four-channel amplifier will deliver up to 150 watts RMS to each of your front and rear speakers for powerful music. Highly efficient Class D technology keeps this powerful amp running as cool as it looks, and allows for a compact chassis that fits in a lot of out of the way spaces. The frequency response of this amplifier stretches up to 50,000 Hz, for Hi-Res Audio Certified playback. Pioneer uses high-grade electronic parts and gold-plated RCA connections to ensure maximum performance. Speaker-level inputs allow you to install this amp in a factory system with no RCA connections. The amplifier switches its input mode automatically when it detects the high-level signal, eliminating the need to run a turn-on lead to your receiver or fuse box. Built-in high- and low-pass filters let you adjust the sound for your vehicle's interior, whether you're driving speakers or subs.
Does this amplifier make a loud "POP!" when turning the audio system off or on, or does it have relays to prevent this annoying problem. I ask because the last time I put an amp in my truck (albeit years ago), the speakers did just that.

Apple - iPhone 11 Pro Max 256GB - Midnight Green (Verizon)
Shoot amazing videos and photos with the Ultra Wide, Wide, and Telephoto cameras. Capture your best low-light photos with Night mode. Watch HDR movies and shows on the 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display – the brightest iPhone display yet.¹ Experience unprecedented performance with A13 Bionic for gaming, augmented reality (AR), and photography. And get all-day battery life² and a new level of water resistance.³ All in the first iPhone powerful enough to be called Pro.
Would anyone care to remark on how Apple CarPlay is compared to Android Auto? I have the latter and it kinda SUCKS as it often doesn't recognize the phone is plugged in or when I speak to it it will turn the radio UP LOUD and not hear me, etc? Thx!

Apple - iPhone SE (2nd generation) 256GB (Unlocked)
iPhone SE is the most powerful 4.7-inch iPhone ever.¹ Featuring A13 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone, for incredible performance in apps, games, and photography. Portrait mode for studio-quality portraits and six lighting effects. Next-generation Smart HDR for incredible detail across highlights and shadows. Cinematic-quality 4K video. And all the advanced features of iOS. With long battery life² and water resistance,³ it's so much of the iPhone you love, in a not so big size.
Is Apple CarPlay any more reliable that Android Auto? Primary use is as a phone but when in my vehicles I use Android Auto for music and that app seems VERY "buggy", including connection problems out the wazoo! I have just about had it! Thx!

Roku - Ultra 4K Streaming Media Player with JBL Headphones and Enhanced Voice Remote - Black
Watch free or paid content over the Internet in 4K resolution with this Roku Ultra TV streaming player. The dual-band channel supports wireless streaming, while the enhanced voice remote enables hands-free operation and lets you create personal shortcut buttons. This Roku Ultra HD TV streaming player includes JBL headphones to enjoy your content privately and an Ethernet port for a wired connection.
I just bought one today and it goes back tomorrow and all because it DEMANDS that I enter a credit card number and PII, Personally Identifiable Information. Why is this necessary to register and use a Roku or any device for that matter?

Hi! I bought the adaptor (at my local Best Buy) that allows me to use loose leaf tea or ground coffee. It works just fine for me. I have also put standard tea bags in my cup and then just let the machine pour hot water in there. And yup. It works just fine too.
Hope this helps!

Denon - Heos 1 HS2 Wireless Speaker for Streaming Music - White
Enjoy enhanced audio clarity as you listen to streaming music with this Denon HEOS speaker. A custom mid-woofer and dome tweeter pick up nuanced sounds, and a sealed enclosure provides protection from humidity, so you can use this speaker in any room in your home. With its compact size, this Denon HEOS speaker fits neatly in small spaces.
Would this speakers work as Dolby atmos ceiling speakers using a denon ace-x4300h, also who's ready?
I don't think so. I have that same AV Reciever and just hooked up all 9 speakers (plus two powered subwoofers) and there doesn't seem to be anything in the menu's setup guide indicating you could use Heos for the Atmos speakers. All the same, all the best to you in trying.
