purchased as a replacement for a Logitech mouse that I had been using for 14 years.
If the old one held up that long it was an easy choice to get another Logitech.

Keep meal backups available for those days when going to the grocery store is not an option. With the Insignia NS-CZ35WH3 3.5 Cu. Ft. Chest Freezer, it is easy to keep a variety of frozen foods on hand. A capacity of 3.5 cu. ft. and one removable wire basket allow you to keep bulky foods at the bottom and smaller foods organized on top. Easy to operate, turn the knob to adjust the temperature from - 10.4° to -11.2°F (-12° to -24°C). A defrost drain easily removes water for when it’s time to defrost, making for an easy cleaning job. Avoid the grocery store by keeping extra meals on hand in this compact and convenient chest freezer.

I purchased this mostly for the reason that a refrigerator freezer has a hard time freezing ice cream
Nice compact size, fits in my dining room very well and quiet.
I also really like it for bigger items that get used on a regular basis like hamburgers and chicken. frees up a lot of space for smaller items in the smaller refrigerator freezer

It claims to have a moisture sensor. However, unless it is a small load or very light fabric we almost always have to run the cycle 2 times or do a timed dry for 90 minutes
The LG Dryer I replaced after 17 years only had sensor issues after 15 years

I have had great luck with Best Buy Protection UNTIL this purchase. This is based on this experience and not over the entire program
Washer had an issue within 2 weeks. I contacted support .
Explained the issue several times. She set up a repair.
The INSTALLATION team shows up and checks to make sure I did not disconnect the hoses and that the washer was still plugged in. I repeat, it seems there purpose was to make sure I was not an idiot.
So they get me connected with a number to arrange a replacement. It was just the generic number. After several minutes of repeating the issue I was transferred to someone else. Where I had to repeat the issue. Nobody seemed to be able to review the log files. I decided to spend an extra $250 and upgrade to a washer with an agitator. Delivery crew showed up with the same model and not the upgrade. I contacted support about the extra $250 I had spent. They never got back to me but at least the took the money off my card

I love the large capacity. However, the washer does a very poor job on the spin cycle. Unless the clothing is very light weigh it comes out very damp.
The signal for the cycle being done is so low volume you pretty much have to be in the room with the washer to hear it.
I also wish I had notice there is no timer on the washer.
The receptacle for detergent should have measurements. It will hold a lot more detergent then is necessary for most loads. I have switched to pods for regular loads

Before I had Speck cases a simple drop could crack a screen.
Granted it will not prevent them 100%. But I can testify that it helps.
Also, my iPhone tends to be slippery. The case makes it easier to hold.

However, I have found a company that makes inserts for the head set to your prescription.

Floodlight Cam Wired Plus is the next generation of our bestselling Floodlight Cam. Protect large outdoor areas like the driveway, garage or backyard with motion-activated LED floodlights, 1080p HD video, and a built-in security siren. Customize the motion zones to monitor specific areas and get real-time notifications when motion is detected. Use the Ring App to see what’s happening, turn on the lights, speak to visitors, and even sound the siren when you need to. It also comes with a free 30-day trial of Ring Protect Plus, so you can review, save and share all your Ring videos at anytime, with anyone.
 

Will the motion sensor activate both the lights and the camera, and set off the notification on my phone? Is the camera always enabled, so it detects motion and I get a ring notification?

You can set a schedule for your camera or have it always enabled.
Via ring bridge and the app you create groups of devices.
I have one with camera on one side of my garage and one without on the other. I also have a Ring lightbulb in the lantern next to my door.

If either sensor detects motion it can turn both floods on and the single bulb. And the flood without camera can turn on the camera at the same time.
What I am thinking I could do it get another bulb for inside the house and have it set to turn on when the motion sensor detects something and it could be a silent alert.
That might get annoying but it is an option.

Does this security camera/floodlight include a motion sensor?

Yes it does. It is on the bottom.

Using the app on your phone you can even draw in a rudimentary fashion the zone it will detect in.

From what I see on the App you can set the Linked devices to react when the Motion sensor on the Camera Flood detects movement. I speculate you can have all ring lights in and around your house light up when it detects motion.

I have one flood with a camera and another without, on either side of the garage. The one with the camera is near my front door.

I have it set if something enters the sensor from the one without the camera it will light up both and start video on the other, and light up the Ring bulb I have next to my door.

I am thinking about installing this as my main entry way lighting. Is there an option to use the floodlight feature alone without video?

I do not think there is an option for not using video. I just looked at my app and could not see an option.

However, if you don't want video you can purchase the Floodlight with motion sensor for a lot less.

I installed one of each.
