Nice story line, little different then most movies you see in this category. Bluray has good colors and such which helps in movies line this which tend to have dark scenes.

Best way to light up your house!

Verified Purchase:Yes
These are expensive, but they really do some awesome colors and different "scenes". They work with other systems like Nest, etc. More then just a bulb you can control via phone, it's part of a larger system that can make your house a little more livable.

Best way to enjoy streaming radio
on September 8, 2016
Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
Often times family member don't understand why I buy Sonos zones at rather premium price vs just a bluetooth speaker in the room. The secret is, Sonos is ALWAYS ready to go. No pairing issues, no turning on, etc. Just ready to go. Plus, the Sonos zone is internet connected, so my phone is only loading a playlist, etc. After that point, my phone is no longer in play. So I walk around with my phone the music doesn't interrupt like with Bluetooth. You can also control Sonos from every tablet and phone in the house. So whole family can interact with it, which is far different then most other home audio streaming solutions.
This zone powers some in ceiling speakers I have. It's perfect for it, as the amp in it drives them nicely and I don't need to worry about separate volume control, etc.

Quiet! However one missing piece.
on September 8, 2016
Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall, very happy. It's like most modern disposer in terms of mounting (3 bolt system which most use). In fact my old Kenmore disposer had died, I didn't even need to change the flange from the sink. This was a perfect swap in, even the waste pipe fit fine. It's quiet, and powerful.
Only concern I have is how to remove a jammed grinder, which mine hasn't yet. On my old one, you had a tool you pop in the bottom and manually move the blades around inside the unit. Pretty easy. This unit, they tell you to use a wooden broom stick handle, down into the sink, and move things around. Odd! Again, hasn't jammed on me yet, but seems odd this feature is missing for this price range.

Perfect Drink PRO Smart Scale: Become a mixologist with a little help from this smart scale, which features Bluetooth technology and a downloadable app that make it easy to pair with your phone or tablet. Just tell the scale what you have in your liquor cabinet, and it lets you know which drinks you can make. There's no need to measure ingredients, since the scale tells you when to stop pouring.

Easy and fun to use!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Surprised how easy this was to use. When making adult beverages, the last thing you want to do is spend 10 minutes setting up a device. Get it out, turn it on, pop open the app, pick drink you want, and start pouring. The pouring part is easy, the app shows you and beeps when you've added the right amount of ingredient in. You make whole drink right on the scale!

Easy to setup, works great in a home theater!
on May 16, 2016
Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
I put the bulbs in floor lamps pointing at the walls in my home theater room. I set the bulbs up with my Harmony remote Smart Hub system. In my home theater room, if I tell Harmony to start Xbox One, rooms glows green on the walls, PS4 it turns blue. Watch a movie and it does a darker color to create a feeling of atmosphere. When I hit the off button on my harmony system, lights turn off with it. Pretty easy to use! Setup is a little more involved, but if you can use a smart phone app, it steps you through every part and is easy.

Works Great!

Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had a older Oral-B toothbrush that this replaced. This toothbrush works differently and I'd say a a bit better. Hard to explain, but it brushes easier. Perhaps because the spinning head of the Oral B requires a bit more work to cover teeth, etc.
The glass cup it sits in is nice, I do wish it had a separate holder for the brush ends. I put them in the cup and it holds two with the main body of the unit, but it can stop it from sitting all the way on the bottom and not charging. Minor issue, otherwise it's great!

Great movie set and extended makes it better
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
Hobbit movie series is excellent. My main point for this review is the extended scenes in the disc set. They're excellent! Really add to the movie and blend right into the main story line. If you're a Hobbit fan, highly recommend to get this set even if you have the theater release of the movies.

Good unit for the price
on January 6, 2016
Posted by: GaryOnTheEdge
Verified Purchase:Yes
Overall i'm happy with this unit given the price. It has a few "premium" features such as 5 way binding posts no the back (most lower priced receiver use a cheap connector). The on screen display via HDMI for things like volume, etc is a bit cheap/1990s looking but that's okay at this price point. Good sound. Haven't tried the SongPal option via Bluetooth, wasn't my main reason for buying this.

Easy to setup, easy to use, family friendly

Logitech has changed the harmony brand significantly. The old days of using a USB connection with your PC to setup a remote is gone. All done via your smartphone or tablet. At first, it feels like the "old way" was better, and some ways it is in terms of highly customizing the device. However, the new system they have in place actually makes setting up new Bluray players, etc far easier. Simple few clicks in the app on your smartphone and it's update. Easy!

Sonos Connect Amp: Part music streamer and part amplifier, this device lets you use your favorite speakers with Sonos multiroom audio components. Don't throw away old speakers; give them new life.
 

I have 3 different rooms, with speakers 3 pairs. 6 speakers in total. Can I connect all the speakers. Will the sonos be able to support 6 speakers all playing the same time, same music.

You can't drive more then two sets of speakers off this (assuming speakers are 8 ohm). If you want to drive a lot of speakers, you either get Sonos Amp per set of speakers (or room) and run them as group (giving you same music, same time in all rooms), or get the Sonos Connect, and a amplifier that can drive a lot of speakers all at once. The only issue with Sonos Connect driving a lot of speakers at once is, the volume control won't work the best in the Sonos app. It'll change volume of all the speakers at once. If you have a Sonos connect or amp set up per room, you'll find volume control is easier.

Enhance audio entertainment with this Sonos Play:1 mini home speaker. Wi-Fi technology lets you pair it with compatible audio devices and other Sonos speakers, while software update function ensures you stay up to date with the latest upgrades. This Sonos Play:1 mini home speaker is humidity-resistant and compact enough to fit in most spaces.
 

Do these have an aux input? Want to be able to hook it up to other components (record/cd player etc) without buying another expensive sonos product

Play 1 speaker does not have aux in. Play 5 and other ones do.
