It looks really cool and futuristic, and holds everything I need it to. I especially love that I placed some dusk to dawn lights under it, and the dragonflies look really nifty when I’m using the desk at night .

Ultra amazing power to chop up darn near anything
on February 25, 2018
Posted by: tigster
from Detroit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Yes, as some reviewer’s noted, this can get very loud. I am OK with wearing earplugs when using this thing on high to chop up bigger, tougher, and/or stringier items for soups, salsas, or stews. Also does a great job liquefying eldercare foods. Or baby foods, depending on who you’re taking care of.
It’s also very heavy and has good sucker-feet to keep it in place due to the power of the motor. Make sure that when you place it, It is exactly where you will want it for a long time.

These work great in my Girl Cave

Verified Purchase:Yes
The Girl Cave is in the basement, so they to fill a huge, wide-open space with sound. These work great with some muddling due to room acoustics that would be hard for any reasonably priced system to accommodate.

Energy star features reduce efficacy
on February 25, 2018
Posted by: tigster
from Detroit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this to replace an old window air conditioner that was starting to have issues. The old air conditioner was 5000, this one is 6000, so I thought that it would cool the room better. Due to the energy star features, the larger condenser runs less frequently so the room is actually warmer than with the smaller unit.

Small system that works well
on February 25, 2018
Posted by: tigster
from Detroit
Verified Purchase:Yes
Dad‘s prior sound system picked up an odd, high-pitched whine that he couldn’t hear but others could, which made it very uncomfortable to join him when watching his favorite shows or movies. This system has crisp, clear sound that is perfect for the 10 x 25 room his tv is in. Being able to play Blu-ray discs is nice bonus. Now it’s a nice family activity to watch movies together again.

Love how easily these switch from device to device with little to no user intervention. This is especially great when watching something on one device and then switching to another, such as Hulu or YouTube Red. When the video switches to the new device, so does the audio.

Good cable at a great price

Had to move the home-office, and the prior cables were way too short. This one is great because the length means it can discreetly go along the walls and around corners. This neatly replaced the trip-hazard speedbump across the floor to cover a wire that’s too short.

Accidentally bought this one when I was looking for a powered USB hub. This does what it’s supposed to, but not what I needed.

Great for my home office

I suddenly became disabled and needed to work from home full-time. This UPS gives me the security and comfort of knowing that I can still work for a little while even after the power goes out during a storm. I also like that it evens the power signal during brown outs.

This compact blender allows you to blend smoothies, milk shakes and more. The travel lid saves time by allowing you to drink from the blending jar.
 

My blender Model 51103 is less than 12 months old. Liquid now leaks from the blending jar beneath the cutting blades into the chamber above the base. Is there a repair I can make to prevent the leak? Thanks for a reply. George

I have not run into this with the Ninja blender. For other brands, I know that this usually means some parts just need to be replaced, such as the blade housing or assembly, or the gasket.

I used Teflon tape and/or Vaseline around the grooves and on the rubber seal for a 20 year old KitchenAid that started leaking after they no longer made parts for it. This worked for a spell until the problem got really bad a few years later, which is why I bought this Ninja.

Can I grind coffee bean with this? I wonder how it works.

I have successfully used this blender to grind seeds, nuts, and beans. I don’t drink coffee, so I don’t know specifically about the coffee beans. My assumption is that since it does seeds and other beans that it would also do coffee beans.

I have a small kitchen. What are the dimensions and weight of this blender. I may have to store it away between uses. I do this with my Kitchen Aid and it's really heavy.

This is about the same weight as my KitchenAid stand mixer. It’s probably about 8” x 7“, and much taller than the mixer. This has sucker-feet so it doesn’t move while the big motor is working, which makes it even harder to move than the mixer because first you have ungrip them from the countertop. I run into the same problem because I also have a smaller kitchen and know exactly how much fun it is to move these appliances around as you need them.

If the electric goes off will it turn on by itself? If yes does it start back up in cool mode?

I’m not sure what you mean by this question. Assuming you mean that there’s a power outage while this is running, no, it does not turn itself back on when power is restored.

Can I plug unit into a surge protector to protect against power surges? What's the suggested rating of the surge protector?

Check the rating on the regulatory mandated sticker on the plug. Make sure that you get an appliance surge protector, not just a normal one such as for your TV. These surge protectors are available, and definitely more expensive because they’re built to handle the larger wires and sudden power draw appliance motors need.

Does AC dry air in Fan Only mode? The manual says to "open the vent during this function but keep it closed" in Cooling Mode. The illustration looks nothing like the vent on my unit, which allows you to control direction but not open/close. How to?

Mine works on fan only mode, and also does not look anything like the picture in the manual. I do not seem to have a way to turn the vent on or off, either. Another confusing thing is that the temperature shown on the face while on fan only is the room temperature, not the desired temperature such as when running the condenser to cool the room.

Hello. I could not find a web browser to go Internet.

That app wasn't installed on mine out of the box. My guess is that it's available in the roku store, but I'm not using the tv that way and haven't verified that. G'luck!
