Great coffee, No Pods
on September 21, 2016
Posted by: emiliosic
from Wakefield, MA
I've been looking at several single-serve coffee makers, and I'm keeping the Ninja Coffee Bar.
It's very simple to use, and no pods to dispose of. Ground coffee is a lot cheaper than pods.
Cleaning the permanent filter (included) is very easy. The filter receptacle can be removed with the filter and is very simple to clean. It has a spring that stops leaks when removed from the machine. If cleaning a permanent filter is too much effort, it also takes #2 cone filters, which are fairly inexpensive.

It brews espresso in 4 oz and 8 oz, small and large cups, 12 oz and 16 oz traveller mugs. It also has different brew intensities (Normal and strong, plus the espresso buttons).
On the left side there is a frother that slides out of the back of the machine, and the water tank, which holds about 32 oz is on the right.
On top of the machine there is a steam vent that produces a lot of steam when brewing so I need to slide the brewer far from cabinets, so the underside doesn't get hit with hot steam. This seems to be the case with most coffee makers although pod machines don't seem to produce as much steam.
Over the base of the machine there's a pull-down cup holder so it takes either a cup or a mug.

Brewing:
It takes a bit over 5 minutes to warm up when turned on.
When brewing, it starts with a small amount of water, then it stops for a few seconds, and then it brews quicker. This seems to lock and extract as much flavor from the beans as possible.
For testing, tried brewing a small cup afterwards with the same coffee and it was extremely watery, so it shows how well it brews.

It takes sightly longer to warm up than a Keurig. Once the machine is warm, there is no delay.
The water container takes 32 oz, so it needs to be re-filled often. The container is removable and easy to rinse
The machine doesn't seem to turn itself off. I left it for about 2 hours with our realizing it was still on, so I don't think it has a timed shut-off. There is also no clock. This is likely the same as in other single-serve machines, so just be aware to turn it off.

The frother can be used even with the machine off and works very well, it's removable and it's rated as dishwasher safe, although it's simple enough to rinse, I wouldn't put it in the dishwasher. It doesn't warm up the milk, so there is no extra container to clean.
To make a cappuccino, Simply put the cup in the microwave for 30 seconds or so, froth it and then brew either 4 oz or 8 oz.
Other machines that steamed the milk that I used in the past were a pain to clean. Not this.

It comes with a double-sided measuring cup, that's labeled and simple to understand. Very simple to use and other than rinsing the permanent filter, mess free.
So although it takes a bit more effort than pods, coffee tastes very good (depending on the beans used of course), offers better combinations of drinks and it's a lot cheaper to use in the long term. Plus there is no plastic pod to dispose of.
The coffee maker also comes with a coffee 'recipe book' that is nice. I plan on trying some more unusual combinations.

Powerful handheld

Verified Purchase:Yes
This model was replaced for the V6, so got this on sale, which makes it a much more reasonable buy.
The motor is more than adequate for most tasks. It has two speeds. In normal mode, the battery lasts about 15 minutes and about 6 minutes in 'turbo' (i.e. full speed).
It comes with two attachments: A long wand for reaching into tight spaces and a combo nozzle with an upholstery brush that recesses when not in use. Being a Dyson there are a lot of optional attachments.
The battery is Li-On but not removable. It comes with a wall charger. There is no charging stand.
It's great for little jobs around the kitchen, cleaning the car, vacuuming drawers and sofas, and it's lightweight.
It's very easy to clean: Hold the vacuum over a trash can, and press a release that pushes the bottom of the trash reservoir open, without ever touching the dirt. There is a washable filter that requires occasional cleaning. There are no disposable parts.
It's good to have it around the kitchen. But keep in mind that Dyson has the same vacuums in 'stick' models, that come with more accessories and wall mount charger, but costs at least $ 100 more.

Great basic HD monitor
on September 16, 2016
Posted by: emiliosic
from Wakefield, MA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased this monitor after searching for economical 1080p monitors with HDMI inputs, and for under $ 100 at the time of purchase, this proved to be an excellent choice. It has HDMI, DVI and VGA inputs, so it connects to any computer (Computers with DisplayPort need an adapter to HDMI).
The monitor is light. It remains cool because the power supply is external (Has to be hidden under the desk). The side bezels are thin giving it a nice look, with no unnecessary ornamentation to distract from the screen. The base is firm but doesn't provide much adjustment.
Also the monitor doesn't have speakers but it has an audio out on the back. The audio source is the HDMI connector.
The screen is glossy but doesn't reflect as much as others. The screen is IPS, that unlike 'regular' LEDs have a much better view from angle. This makes a big difference compared to other monitors.
It's bright enough to be used comfortably next to a window.
For everyday tasks this is an excellent monitor.
The only caveat that for most people wouldn't be an issue is that it doesn't accept a VESA mount, unless a custom bracket is used attached to the base arm. Other than that, it has an excellent image at 1080p resolution, and is 23" so it's easier on the eyes.

Purchased a refurbished charger. It looks like new, clean no marks, except for the labels on the box.
The reason why I needed another charger is because the cable from the computer connector started to give, and while it works I'm not confident it will work for much longer. Not sure why it's so fragile.
Since it's a proprietary connector I wasn't confident in 3rd party power supplies

Quality convection toaster

Verified Purchase:Yes
Used the toaster sparingly for a few weeks. Toasts bread / bagels fairly evenly. Being a toaster, this is obviously key.
Heating elements are covered. The crumb tray is easy to remove.
Controls are fairly intuitive to operate. Took a few minutes the first time to get it right. The display is backlit and turns on only when needed or working.
The knob for selecting temperature doesn't have a great feeling to it, however it's working as it should. So this is a concern, possibly unjustified.
Other than that minor detail, the oven works, and using it is intuitive. Just took me a short while to get used to the controls coming from a very basic older toaster.

Convection should speed cooking and is more efficient than heating alone.
The oven comes with an adjustable tray and baking pan.
The stainless finish is real, uncoated stainless steel, so it's a bit of smudge prone but it's easy to clean. This is expected though, like any stainless appliance.

Great convertible laptop
on July 8, 2016
Posted by: emiliosic
from Wakefield, MA
To give it some context, my daily computer is a MBP. I also use different Windows laptops
on a daily basis, including Surface Pro and standard PCs.
on a daily basis, including Surface Pro and standard PCs.
At the price point, this Acer convertible Windows 10 is very good.
At about 5 pounds is a bit heavy as a tablet but very comfortable as a laptop.
The screen is 1080p and the IPS display is very easy to read, with excellent colors.
At 1080p, it doesn't have the high definition of a cellphone but it's very good on a laptop.
It's a bit reflective like most laptops or tablets with glossy displays.
The hinges to turn it into tablet mode works very well, and feels very solid.
Note that 1080p is a 'widescreen' and the laptop is more square, so it has a big black bezel at the bottom.
The touchscreen works very well. I also use a Surface Pro, and for comparison, the touchscreen on this laptop works equally well.
The outer shell is brushed metal anywhere that's visible with a plastic bottom.
(Note that brushed metal is not smooth, it has a texture, so the armrest is also textured. This is different than on other laptops).

(Note that brushed metal is not smooth, it has a texture, so the armrest is also textured. This is different than on other laptops).
The CPU is a current generation - 6th gen i5 which is very responsive. The video controller, intel 520 works very well with a 1080p screen like this.
This model comes with 8 GB RAM that is plenty for most uses.
The combination of CPU, video and memory are very good for a home computer. Very responsive.
The battery claim is 8 hours but I find that 6 hours is more realistic with normal web and email activities.
Specs-wise, my only concern is that is has a 1 TB hard drive instead of an SSD.

The keyboard is interesting. Uses island keys like most current laptops and has good feedback.
Keys are also backlight which is very nice (it seems to be either or or off, no dimming).
The laptop comes with a full keyboard that covers all the length, including the numeric keypad.
Took me a while to get used to because by providing a numeric keypad, the keys are slightly smaller, and the hands are not centered when typing because of the number keypad on the right.
Overall, besides the smaller keys and slightly unusual typing position, typing on this keyboard is very comfortable. Eventually I'll get used to it but I wish it didn't have the numeric keypad.
The trackpad is large and very responsive, with good click feedback.

The trackpad is large and very responsive, with good click feedback.
Connections: On the left, there is a power connector, HDMI, audio, two USB 3 ports and one USB-C, which is still fairly new and is a great addition.
However the laptop cannot be charged with an USB-C port, it has the speed of an USB 3 port, and also doesn't seem to provide video out like Macbooks and others. Regardless it's very convenient that this port is included, as it's the new USB standard.
One of the USB 3 ports can be configured so it remains on for charging a cellphone, etc. Is only distinguished by a small label.
On the right side there is an USB 2 port, a memory card reader, power button and volume rocker.
Find it a bit confusing that there is an USB 2 port instead of another USB 3.
There is no ethernet port included like most 'home' laptops.
The power charger is quite small and lightweight, however keep in mind that the power connector is very small and although I didn't experience any issues, it seems a bit fragile. Time will tell.
The only video out option is HDMI, so unlike business laptops that have a displayport, HDMI is the only way to connect an external monitor. This is not an issue for home use but a consideration if it's used for presentations.

Software: Acer provides some utilities that might be useful for some but didn't find I would use them myself.
A McAfee 30-days trial is included, which I find it nags too much and and up removing.
So there is a bit of bloat in the included software but nothing that cannot be simply removed.
A major point of concern is that it comes with a 1TB hard drive that I find a bit slow.
I would've preferred a smaller SSD instead, and would likely replace it in the near future.
Also, consider creating an USB stick for a 'factory restore'. This is not included with the laptop.
Since it's sold as a 'home' laptop, Windows 10 Home is included. Keep in mind that BitLocker isn't provided on Home editions so the contents of the hard drive is not encrypted.
You'll need to purchase a Windows upgrade to be able to encrypt the drive. I mention this because my other computers are encrypted, which gives me some peace of mind if the laptop is lost or otherwise.

The speaker sounds tinny. There is a small grille on the back of the tablet.
The sound comes from the back and sounds muted if not held 'the right way'.
I think this could've been improved without substantially changing the price or other specs.

Well rounded home router for large homes
on May 21, 2016
Posted by: emiliosic
from Wakefield, MA
Pros:
Top of the line Wi-Fi signal for a residential router:
3 radios: 2 5Ghz radios and one 2.4 Ghz radio, that can be either configured simultaneously or independently.
Intuitive web based configuration.
- Assisted setup is straightforward.
- Network map is very useful although it doest report signal strength.
File sharing with one USB 3.0 port and one USB 2.0, but file transfer protocols are limited to SMB, FTP and DLNA. It can read NTFS drives.
There is a push button on the side of the router next to the WPS button to turn off the WiFi radio, leaving the ethernet part of the router on.
Supports guest networks with basic controls.
8 Gigabit LAN ports.
3 year warranty.

Cons:
Basic enterprise features like WPA2 Enterprise but with no support for SNMP.
No wall-mounting holes: table-top only.
Antennas are not removable, like on other Linksys routers (EA7500 has removable antennas)
Functionality is limited when in Bridge mode.

Parental controls are time of day filters for specific devices, and can block specific sites, but that's it.
There is a mobile app for basic router management that's it's accesible via the "Linksys Smart Wi-Fi" account.
Overall it's a great router. It's installed on the basement of a 3-stories house, and signal is very high though the house, very high to high in the backyard, and there's reception from a neighbor's.
Ookla measured the same speeds (190d / 20u) from either wireless (mobile phone) or wired.
This router should perform well when there are multiple devices connected over wireless and consuming data.

How much noise is made when running? How loud does it get?
It has a big fan, but it varies depending on the mode. So there is fan noise, but it's acceptable. Lower than a range hood

Does it have a warm option, to keep cooked food warm, till you’re ready to put the food on the table?
The reheat mode starts at 100F, and the bake mode at 180F. The reheat mode at low temperature could be used for that

It does not have a 'keep warm' setting, but the lowest 'bake' temperature is 180F, if that works

How do I connect the power cord? It's USB-C on both ends. I do not have an adapter or a USB-C port. The specifications on the site state: "USB-C charging cable (USB-A to USB-C)". What can I do?
The USB-C port is only for charging. You can use any USB-C charger, like the ones on some iPhones or iPads. You can also get an USB-C to USB-A cable at BestBuy or elsewhere.
All Macs in the past few years have USB-C ports.
