I have another of this companies products and have also given one to my daughter as a gift. I like iced tea and I drink a lot of it. Since buying this kettle I have averaged (on this version) 3 kettles a day without a problem. I use my other one to alternate when guests are over!
It's that good. Not good enough, you say? I spent my own hard earned money on it so the truth is, it really is that good. I highly recommend this device!
Yeah...Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

I tried the excellent Insignia GoogliegIRL speakers. Nice but I hate talking to GooglieGirl. I tried Amazon's Alexa speakers. Not as nice as the Insignia GooglieGirl speakers and I don't like talking to Alexa.
I have a Denon AV Receiver I got at BB with Heos built in. Guess what?
These little speakerettes are fantastico! No need to be hoping some A.I. female voice will recognize my voice and play my music, I pick what I what and send it where I want it. No regrets! No if onlys? No buyer's remorse! No kidding. These are superdedoooper!
These are excellent speakers and I am going to be getting at least two more in the future. Highly recommend! Trust me. I know what I'm doing when I'm reviewin'!

I buy this because She Who MUST Be Obeyed has declared it her favourite coffee! To be honest, I don't drink the stuff m'self. To be just as honest, I value peace and quiet and having this particular brand and flavour of brew is the best way to start the day. For her, because it is her fave and for me because it is her fave and makes her day easier to get started.
So then...What have learned here today? Get your wife her most favored B&B (Brand & Blend) of coffee and you shall be rewarded with a smile instead of a frown from your beloved. That is worth it all.

I bought this back in June for some very dear friends (more family, really) and they received it a few days later. But still it doesn't show here that I'm a verified buyer!!!!
I am a Verified Buyer. :-) Yup. I am.
Well...I am! And per my friends this ION Survival Blootoof Speaker is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! I've given a couple of other IONs away. One to my son and one more to another good friend, but this one was chosen for this couple as they go camping and this ION has solar charging and a hand crank to help keep the battery powered up and the music playing.
The battery last for several hours and you can also charge your cell phone via the USB outlet. What more could you ask for?
How about built in AM/FM and (*GASP*) Short Wave Radio?! Well it has those two too (cool how I just did that phraseologifcaiton there, huh?).
So, as is my habit, this baby comes highly recommended. I tend to check into things before I buy them, either for myself or family and friends. I've heard from the wonderful folk I gave this unit to and they told me it is most excellent indeed.
Buy one for backayrd BBQing. Buy one for camping. Buy one for NASCARing (izzat a word?). If you have the need for a rugged, powerful and kinda cool looking Blootoof speaker, this ION will fill that need.
Trust me...I know what I'm doing.

This time, for my son. He has taken to weight training and as such has become all the more health conscious about his food. This blender/food processor does not only what he asks of it, but also what he needs.
I bought this to replace a 35+ year old Osterizer blender that simply developed a leak that I could not get to stop. So...I bought my son this new version. Like the previous processor, this unit has a GLASS container and when it comes to blenders and processors, glass is class.
Enough motor power to blend the thickest protein shakes as well as slice up vegetables such as carrots without so much as a wimper. Some here may say, "But SSSS, you give nearly everything you review 5 Stars!"
To that I would say thus - "I don't give anything I buy 5 Stars. It must earn them".
This blender does just that.

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!!!!!

I have owned this for just over two years now and I don't think I will EVER get used to how W I D E the picture is. It is, for me, too wide. So wide that it is nearly useless. Is there a way to zoom in and refocus the camera? If not, good bye camera.

Smoke, grease and cooking odors have no place in your kitchen. But neither do bulky hood vents that overpower your design sensibilities. LG STUDIO wall-mounted hood vents offer a streamlined, low-profile look that occupies minimal visual space, paired with a professional-grade 600 CFM blower that delivers ultimate air movement. 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.

Yes of course! You just need to get a VESA standard wall mount for it. Go into your local Best Buy and they will help you right there. If it is not in stock they can order it for you and have it sent to your home or to the store for pick up.

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

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 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.

And, be2er also just got bigger with the U8H now available in an 85” screen size.
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.

Does this have a fiber optic output
The TV has a Toslink/Optical Output. The TV is the audio source and as such it does not have an Optical input.

Two questions: I heard the U8K drops the HDMI signal, especially when using an HDMI splitter. Has this been a problem for anyone? I use an HDMI splitter to hook up multiple gane consoles. Also, have people run into dirty screen effect with the U8K?
8K is not widely (if at all) available via streaming. I spoke with my son who is an avid gamer and he said it isn't much of a deal in that environment.
If you split your source you are likely to suffer signal degradation unless you insert a device too boost said signal.

Can you use an Amazon Fire Stick with this TV, even though it’s Google? Apparently the cable company I am joining says they give you an amazon fire stick. Want to be sure it works with this TV. Thanks
Yes you can. I have done so via direct input of my Fire Stick 4K to the TV or via inputting the Firestick 4K into my Denon AVR-X4300H and it works superbly!
