I got this for my brother and his wonderful wife! And...Wait for it...Waaaaait...Just a little longer...The REALLY like it!!!!!!!!!!
They grow probably 75% of their food themselves as my brother is a vegan (no...He's a good vegetarian, one that doesn't jump in my face for eating meat. He is not a grumpy, judgeMENTAL vegen, LOL! He enjoys what he eats and his wife is an excellent cook and again, they grow around 75% of their food in their back yard!
And I LOVE my brother and his wife and son, so I bought 'em this little device. They have already begun using it for herbs and the like and soon they will start doing tomatoes and if I'm lucky, some apricots for me! Doggie treats for our most excellent Labratard pooch! Artificial beef jerky treats?! Real beef jerky treats?! Banana Chips?! Apples?! The list is only limited by your imagination and taste buds! Who knows what else they'll be sucking the liquid out of with this most excellent Food Dehydrator from my abso-freakin'-lutely favourite (note the cultured European spelling!) electronics store - Best Buy.
I was told this thing really works great and they could not be happier with this gift and that is the entire purpose of giving something to someone you care about: Making them happy!
I even got them the two year extended warranty! Why? Because I LOVE them, that's why? And it was affordable peace of mind to boot. Look, I'm not just any major dude but I will tell you, this thing (per my brother and his wife) is FANTASTIC!
I am no cook, let alone a chef (well...Maybe along the lines of Chef Boyardee or Chef Tell!) but from what they tell me this thing is a quality piece of equipment and it gets the job done. What more could anyone want from a Food Dehyrdator?
Highly recommended? Yuppers!

...What can I say. Look my friends, I have been a video fiend for decades. I have had VHS, S-VHS, Laser Disc, DVD, Blu-Ray and now 4K.
I have over a thousand films on all of the aforementioned formats and have enjoyed (and will continue to enjoy) them all. I don't buy films unless I am CERTAIN I will view them a lot more than just "once or twice". Example?
I have seen my absolute favorite film, "Kingdom of Heaven" well over 100 times. I have seen my second favorite film, "Quo Vadis" well over 100 times. I have seen all of the "Thin Man" series of films well over 100 times. Musicals such as "Oklahoma" and "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers"? Well over 100 times. And the bestest part of it all?
They are mine now. And I can watch them whenever I want to.
"Captain Marvel" is now a part of my collection of films, which by the way, goes back to the 1920s. I do not buy poop. I buy that which makes me smile, laugh and sometimes..."think". Yup. I like to smile. I like to laugh. And movies are meant to do that. Don't believe me then I suggest you watch the excellent "Sullivan's Travels". Then you will know why.
This film, "Captain Marvel" is a fine edition to my life. It's fun. It's silly. It's fun. Did I mention it's "FUN"? Well it is.
I highly recommend it.

My beard could be on the face of Kal El. It is that difficult to shave it. But these blades, whilst not the famed "Sword of Damocles" are still rapier like in their sharpness and are therefore able to slice through my Kyryptonian stubble with ease.
Yeah... I know a bit over the top but I just wanted to make you all aware that they are worth the expense. Highly recommended!

 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!

This amp also acts as a streamer, doesn't it? I don't need to pair another streamer to it, correct?

Yes. The Marantz Model M1 is a combination Amplifier with built-in HEOS controlled streamer. You do not need anything other than a pair of passive (i.e., not self powered) speakers and if you wish, a powered subwoofer. The M1 is 2.1 channel ready (i.e., 2 speakers and a powered sub). Thank you!

High pass for sub out?

I believe the Marantz Model M1 has a low pass filter for the sub out and a high pass filter for the main speakers. The unit is 2.1 ready! The sub out level should be easily accessed and controled via the HEOS screen for "now playing". I hope this helps and if there is any error on my part perhaps the Marantz folks will assist.

The theme of powerful performance and refined style continues, with dual level LED lighting that brilliantly illuminates the cooktop surface and sophisticated, touch controls. Available in 30” and 36” widths in elegant black stainless steel; classic stainless steel finish.
 

Can the wifi feature be disabled or turned off?

I never activated mine so as near as I can tell if it doesn't have access to your WiFi, that feature is not on.

Does my Total Tech cover me returning this TV or not? I just reset it to wipe out my streaming services. I give up. Hisense has not done squat for me. I am still a fan of Best Buy, just not this TV.

Hisense sent me an email a couple of weeks ago and said they would contact me. So far not a word. This is NOT Best Buy's problem. It belongs to Hisense.

Do TV's with Tuner Type ATSC 3.0 (NextGen TV) also work with atsc 1.0 signal?

In general most standards are backwards compatible. For example, Bluetooth. All the best!

My TV has a horrid "mosaic" affect on deep blacks that cannot be adjusted away. Also, this new TV "communicates" with my Denon AVR and turns on the AVR and starts turning on media players like Blu Ray and UHD Disc players. I hate this!!! HELP!!!!!

Thank you Roseb. The TV is hooked up properly and other than you kind reply I've found nothing to alleviate my problems with an otherwise fine TV.

I am giving it back under warranty. I have long since grown weary of they way this thing turns every freaking device on unless and worse. I have asked Hisense here for help but NOooooOOoooooooo!!!!!

I am thinking of moving my computer and hooking it up to a tv. I play high tech fast action games and looking for a tv that will handle the speed. I'm told the refresh rate is a major importance. I'm looking hopefully for a tv about 65 inch.

In gaming mode the refresh rate is 144Hz.

when it indicates Google tv, what does that mean?

Google TV is the OS (Operating System) for this TV. You can simply buy a Roku, Amazon or some other device that features your preferred OS.
