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.

What is the width of the base? (Only depth was listed in specs and height can be inferred from measure diagram).

The picture of the base is a little misleading. It looks like the part that touches the stand is actually smaller. I needed to build a riser for my TV to get it over my center channel speaker and needed this spec.

However, I was in a competitors warehouse store 3 days before my TV arrived and they had it on display on the stand. I happened to have my tape measure with as I was going to look at potential new stands.

sure enough it really is exactly as long as the spec say

Take the excitement of surround lighting to the next level with the Philips Hue Play gradient lightstrip. This LED strip flawlessly blends multiple colors of light at the same time, mimicking the content on the entire screen for an immersive, full-room entertainment experience unlike any other. Hue Bridge and Hue Play HDMI Sync Box required, not included.
 

How does the HDMI sync box function if I am running sound through the HDMI(arc) connection to WISA wireless speakers?

It is unfortunate that you have to have your devices feeding into the sync box and the sync box feeds the Hue and your TV input. Otherwise it should function as normal

Proudly display your satellite speakers with these Sanus HTB3-B1 speaker stands, which adjust from 26" to 39" high for optimal acoustics and provide cord storage to conceal and reduce clutter. Rubber feet and carpet spikes ensure stability.
 

how tall are these

38" from bottom to the top of the stand,not including the bracket.

This is good height if you are setting up for Dolby 5.1 or 7.1 surround.

I'm looking for a monitor that's capable of running high refresh rate (120-144), 1ms timing and higher resolution than 1080p (1440) through Hdmi. I've read this is hard to do through hdmi, is this monitor capable of doing this?

You are better off with a GPU with Display Port.

To get that kind of refresh rate via HDMI you will need a card that outputs HDMI 2.0 and and HDMI 2.0 cable.

I have 2 of these monitors hooked up. One on HDMI and the other on DP. My HDMI one maxes out at 60 hz. DP maxes out at 144 using a mid range AMD GPU. On my gaming computer I am running 165 hz via DP on a RTX 2070

i tried recalibrating, but I think I messed up. How do I get everything back to normal? I used a colorimeter and DisplayCal. I already tried resetting to factory settings, but still it seems off.

I was able to adequately calibrate my monitors using the onboard menus. If you manually attached a colormeter you may have messed up some bios or some such.

If you have access to a Dell computer hook up the monitor and right click and activate Dell Display Manager. You may be able to reset the monitor with that

When you tried to reset it did you use Windows or the Monitor menu. I assume you used the monitor menu

Is there a 32" screen size available with the following specs 32" 4k IPS 144hr+ 1 millisecond response time non ultrawide?

Dell does make a 32" but it costs around $5000

If your using it for gaming. Many experts will agree that 27" is the optimal. Many of your larger monitors do not have all the bells and whistles because the monitor is to large.

It says freesync and g sync on the website I bought it from but the box only says freesync. How would you use g-sync

I never noticed that on the box but I just looked and that is the way it is.

However, I am running my monitors one two computers. One had AMD and the other is NVIDIA. I do gaming on the NVIDIA computer and work on the AMD computer.

I verified via game interface that it was running on G-Sync and they are automatically switching between the two.
