Best cup of coffee made at home
on May 8, 2018
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
The Breville Precision Brewer is the best coffee maker that my house has ever used. When set to the Gold Cup brewing mode, the coffee it produces is on par with the best coffee you would get at a high-end coffee shop. There were many features of this coffee maker that I liked. This unit has a stainless steel finish and looks good enough to leave out on the kitchen counter. It has a 3 foot cord which is an average length. The thermal carafe also has a stainless steel finish and works incredibly well at keep coffee hot. For example, I made coffee in the morning and it was still quite warm many hours later. Also, I have to say that the carafe pours very well and allows every last bit to be poured out which was a pleasant surprise compared to some older coffee makers I have used. This coffee maker has 6 brewing modes: Gold Cup, Fast, Strong Brew, Ice Coffee, Cold Brew, and My Brew. The last mode, My Brew, allows customization of bloom time, brew temperature, and flow rate to make your brew to your exact specifications. With the other modes, the unit will automatically adjust the water temperature and brew time to make the perfect cup of coffee. It can brew a single cup or up to 12 cups if you like. I liked that the brew time was fast even when making 12 cups. It also has an alarm mode that you can set up so that the coffee maker has finished making your exact choice of brew at a specific time, which is very handy in the morning. If all of these features sound complex to someone new to coffee makers, I must say that I found all of the settings to be very intuitive and logical. You aren't going to need to stand in your kitchen with the user manual for 30 minutes to make your coffee. There are some issues to be aware of with this coffee maker, too. There is no built-in coffee grinder to make the exact right amount coffee grinds for your selection, so you will end up with unused grinds at the end. This isn't a big deal to me because I found that I learned the right amount the more I used the maker. This also means that when you are making coffee, the operation will take up some space in your kitchen with both the coffee maker and a grinder out on the counter. It could be an issue in a kitchen with not much counter space. That said, this coffee maker has made the best coffee I have had at home, makes it quickly, makes it to my specifications, and keeps it warm for quite awhile. I would recommend it for any serious coffee family or even small business.

Budget Gaming Laptop with some issues
on May 2, 2018
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
The Acer Nitro 5 AN515-53-55G9 gaming laptop packs some good features inside it at a very good price, but also has some issues that hold it back. I fall on the side of recommending this laptop, barely. I will start with the features I liked. The Intel 8th generation CPU is very powerful and handled everything I threw at it very well. I expected nothing less. The GPU is also quality, and it is nice to see a nVIDIA 10 series dedicated graphics card at this price in a gaming laptop. Games, including VR games, worked very well with this unit. I also liked the look and feel of this laptop. Usually, gaming laptops have bright colors and shiny logos that mark them out as gaming rigs. This laptop has a matte black lid with a metallic black logo, and has a deep burgandy accent color. The lid felt very sturdy. The rest of the body felt like typical laptop plastic, but seemed durable enough. It booted up very quickly with a minimum of bloatware. I was impressed that it came with fan control software from Acer right out of the box. The keyboard was very typical, if maybe a little tight for larger hands, and the letters are backlit in red. The plate does come off of this unit very easily, which would allow for easy access to upgrade the laptop if desired. Now for some features that I did not like about this unit. It became very hot in a quick amount of time under normal conditions, and I am not certain why. It has 2 cooling fans, which were operating quite loudly, but they didn't seem to make an impact. This can be mitigated with a cooling pad to some degree, but it is something for which to be aware. I used a cooling pad after a little bit of usage, but the unit still became hot enough that I had to set it aside after about an hour. Another issue with the loud fans was that the speaker location toward the bottom of the unit became drowned out by the loud fan usage. Again, this could be mitigated with noise-cancelling headphones but is quite irritating if you don't use headphones often. The display looked very nice but was a bit dim even on high brightness settings. This would be OK in a dim environment but it was hard to see the screen when used outside. Finally, the battery lasted an unusually short time. Gaming laptops rarely have great battery usage due to the power-hungry components, so I took that into consideration. But even doing mundane tasks and internet surfing drained the batter in about 5 hours. Obviously, when gaming the battery drains even faster, about 90 minutes. In summary, this laptop has some great components inside and has an excellent price but as an experienced laptop gamer there were some serious issues to contend with, too. If you often game while using a cooling pad, headphones, and while plugged in, these issues might not be a big deal.

The Sony SRS-XB41 is a high-quality portable speaker that is extremely versatile. It is suitable for just about everywhere: bookshelf, house party, open room, outdoors, pool/beach. Mine was black and covered with a fabric that was easy to dust off and clean. It has a similar profile to other portable speakers and is unobtrusive in most locations. I used it mainly to stream music from my Android phone, and the music sounded very nice. There was a nice combination of high-range, mid-range, and bass. The unit has a Live Sound button that produced the most balanced sound for my taste. It felt I could hear music clearly no matter where I was in relation to the speaker, which is nice in outdoor settings. If more bass is desired, there is an Extra Bass feature that is similar to other Sony products. I found that the Extra Bass was handy at higher volumes. To me, the most important feature of this speaker is that it is waterproof (IP67 rating) and dustproof. It hasn’t gotten particularly dusty, but I did test the waterproofing by giving the unit a quick dunk in a sink and it continued to function flawlessly. The unit does have lighting that can be turned off, or even changed. I didn’t care for the light as it will drain the battery but it looks cool in a dark setting. I was able to get 20 hours out of the unit once it was fully charged and without using the lighting feature. It comes with an AC adapter for charging, and will also charge via USB but does not include that cord. The unit does have tap functionality which allows the user to touch the speaker to make DJ-style sounds (scratch, snare, drum, cowbell), and control the volume and lightning. I am not a DJ but my kids did enjoy the DJ noises. You can also use voice commands via Siri/Google to control the speaker. I would recommend downloading the Sony Music Center app to get the most functionality of the speaker; it was easy to use. One last feature is that you can connect up to 100 of these units via the Sony app to create a massive amount of sound. With all of the light controls, DJ tools, and great quality music, it could be amazing to hook up several of these speakers for small party venues. This isn’t something you can do with many portable speakers. In summary, this speaker produces great sound and seems very durable. It lasts a long time between charges, is waterproof/dustproof, and is appropriate for any location for any use. If I were a DJ or had a small party venue, I would even consider this product for business use.

Very good product
on November 25, 2017
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
I am a long time Photoshop user and have been pleased with this new version. I enjoy being able to rely on a familiar interface with new features seamlessly worked in. I suspect the new haze removal and improved auto-fix features will get plenty of use. I'm new to Premier, but found the interface user friendly and very intuitive. I will be finding a manual since, as with any Adobe product, this product is very feature dense. From what I have learned and experimented with so far, Premier seems very useful.
Overall I'm very pleased with this Photoshop/Premier combo. The cost is a much better price than a monthly subscription and I like that the software will never go away. Installation was a breeze, and is available both by disc and by download, for both PC and Mac.

Great portable speaker for anywhere
on November 16, 2017
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
I have been completely blown away by the performance of this new Megablast portable speaker by Ultimate Ears. I currently own a Boom speaker, which is a previous generation of portable speaker from Ultimate Ears, and this Megablast speaker is a vast improvement in every way. The Megablast looks fairly similar in style to the Boom, with the same cylindrical shape and rubbery feel to the buttons. It is much larger than the Boom. It is advertised as waterproof and this held true when it was tested in a bathtub. This makes it great for outdoor situations, especially for the pool, boat, or camping. The Megablast has far-field voice recognition, reacting to my voice commands from very far away, inside and outside. It can connect either via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. It is compatible with Alexa Voice which allows it respond to all of the typical Alexa questions and commands. The speaker currently works with Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, TuneIn (through the Alexa App). Via Bluetooth, you can connect to your phone and play music from the various music services that are out there. There is a free Ultimate Ears app that will need to be downloaded to your phone which walks the user through connecting the speaker and logging in to Amazon and other music services. The speaker does come with a D-ring, Micro USB cord, and power adapter. I also obtained the Ultimate Ears Power Up charging dock which works nicely with the speaker. The Power Up charging dock works with both Megablast and Blast speakers, but not the previous generation of speakers like the Boom. For me, a single charge lasted about fifteen hours. Now about the sound: it is amazing and comes out in all directions. Compared to my old Boom, music sounds more full and rich, even at loud volume levels. The improvement in the bass is the most noticeable. Music has real weight to it that you just don't hear with other portable speakers thanks to the improved bass drivers. The highs, the mid-range, and the lows just sound so good. I have really enjoyed using the Megablast. It is easy to use, has quality sound, and allows me to use Alexa. If you are looking for a quality portable speaker, I highly recommend the Ultimate Ears Megablast.

Excellent Sony Headphones
on October 22, 2017
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
These headphones are fantastic. My experience with noise-cancelling headphones is mainly with another set of Sony 'can' headphones. This set provides almost the same level of sound quality and noise-cancelling without any bulkiness and more flexibility. This unit comes with the headset, micro USB cable, carrying pouch (nice for travel, looks nice), dedicated headphone cable, plug adaptor for in-flight use, hybrid silicone rubber earbuds of various sizes, and 'triple-comfort' earbuds of various sizes. The unit does work when plugged directly into a computer even when out of power. A charge seems to last about 10 hours. I recommend downloading the Sony Headphones Connect app for Apple or Android when using this unit. The app can be used to analyze how you are using the unit and will adjust setting to provide the best quality while conserving battery. Also, as is common, this unit can be used to answer your phone when they are connected. Connection can be made either via Bluetooth or NFC. I was able to use voice control on my phone to control this headphone unit, too. One note: this unit is great for travel and use on the move, but not for working out. Even mild jogging caused the earbuds to fall out of my ear, and they dangled from the neck piece. The noise cancelling ability of this unit is impressive. I thought noise-cancelling would be difficult because the earbuds don't surround the ear like my can-style headphones, but I was wrong. I used these while mowing my yard, and the unit blocked almost all of the noise. The cool thing is that this unit has a 'Smart Listening' feature which detects the noise level around the unit and balances the noise-cancelling level. You can also use the app to select Ambient Mode which quiets the noise-cancelling so that you can hear announcements, etc, making this unit very convenient at the airport or train station. The quality is very nice. I'm not an audiophile but I can tell a big improvement in the drivers; everything sounds nice. Music is very rich, and call quality was very crisp. When I was playing music, the unit would vibrate to alert me of an incoming call. I only had 2 concerns with this unit. First, I could not find a earbud size that felt precisely comfortable in my ear. This should not be an issue for most people. I settled for a set of the comfort earbuds. Second, when the noise-cancelling is on but the surrounding environment is quiet, it made my head feel a little weird. I used the app to turn down the NC level a bit, and that seemed to help. Other than those two issues, I can't recommend this unit enough. They are high-end, but if you are thinking about buying a nice set of headphones then this is a great unit to purchase. They are high-quality, provide excellent features, pack away nicely, look good, and keep a charge for a decent amount of time.

Another good Shark product
on October 20, 2017
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
This is a pretty good robotic vacuum that has some limitations. It ran very quietly, more so than a standard vacuum but average for a robotic one. It picked up dog hair and dirt very well on both my hardwood and carpeted areas. I ran an upright vacuum in the same area just after this unit had swept it, and there wasn't much that it missed. It has a handy remote that can be used to schedule a cleaning time, start cleaning right away, spot clean or return it to the charging station. It weighs about 5 pounds. It included a virtual barrier that worked well. It has the typical side brushes so that it cleans up close to walls and furniture. An extra set of side brushes is included. It charged in under 3 hours. The size of the dirt cup is average for a robotic vacuum. I did find some drawbacks. I found that it seemed to have some pathfinding/obstacle issues. In a room with no obstacles, it swept in a strange pattern that left some small parts of the room unswept. In another room with obstacles, it didn't seem to find the best way around some bench legs, again leaving some of the floor unswept. It didn't do well with a light area rug but that is fairly typical. Overall, this is a pretty good robotic vacuum that I would recommend for homes with fairly open floorplans. Due to the remote, this vacuum would be nice for a person that has difficulties with the weight of uprights or with pulling canister vaccums.

Very nice laptop
on October 19, 2017
Posted by: Robs
from Indianapolis
Overall this is a decent little computer. The size is good if you're looking for something small to carry with you or hold comfortably while you work. The screen folds smoothly and rotates automatically when you change positions. It seems stable when positioned in an inverted V as well. However, when you pick it up in the traditional position the screen is prone to folding back which makes me worry about how well the screen will retain the ability to stand up straight over time.
The fan is quiet and unobtrusive. The keyboard will light up, but isn't excessively bright, which is helpful when I'm working in the dark with someone trying to sleep. I miss having a number pad, but there isn't room and to include it the keys would have to be uncomfortably small. As it is, the keys are a good size. The mouse pad has a good feel and is responsive, but has no buttons which makes scrolling difficult without using the touch screen. I find it awkward to go between the two. Having directional arrows helps.
The touch screen is a nice feature for when you are using it in an inverted V, or as a tablet. It's very reflective (as you would expect of a tablet), so there's a glare on it at all times.
I like the metallic feel. It gives it the impression that you are holding something of substantial quality despite its comfortable size and weight.
The software is very familiar to me as I have another computer with Windows 10. It does include some bloatware; mostly games.
The sound isn't great. It is workable, but has a tinny quality, even with the bass turned all the way up. I would recommend headphones for anyone doing a lot of listening, or anyone who needs good quality sound.

Great Router for Large House and Many Devices
on July 6, 2017
Posted by: Robs
I have enjoyed using this router, which is optimized for situations in which your home has many devices connected to WiFi and/or if you have a larger home. It uses the latest technology to produce 3 WiFi bands: a 2.4 GHz band and two 5 GHz bands. Many of my older devices would connect to the 2.4 GHz band, which was fine. That band provides up to 750 Mbps. My newer phones and computers connected to one of the 5 GHz bands, each of which provides up to 1625 Mbps. This router can handle as many devices as you can throw at it. I experimented with having multiple streaming devices going at the same time as online gaming and a video conference call, and the connections were great regardless of the bandwidth I was using with all those devices. One interesting feature is that I was able to use voice commands through my Echo to access some of the WiFi features of the router. I was also able to use the Linksys App on my Android phone to control most of the router features. One note, the 2 USB ports on the back are 3.0 which is nice. The range on this router was amazing. I don't have the largest house but I was able to roam very far away from it in my yard and still had impressive signal. I feel like this router would be a great purchase for the family with a lot of tech, especially with multiple devices using WiFi at high bandwidth at the same time. You will get optimal signal and excellent WiFi.

Good for wide open floors, not great in corners
on June 2, 2017
Posted by: Robs
This is an electrically powered mop meant for hard floor surfaces. In my home, that means laminate and vinyl flooring in the hallways and kitchen. The unit came with one set of pads attached (soft) and another set (scrubbing) separately. It also comes with 2 small bottles of Spring Fresh-scented cleaning solution for the spray nozzle on the unit. In the middle of my floors, I felt it did a good job of cleaning. It wasn't particularly loud, which is a plus. In some tough areas, I did go spray and go over messes twice: once with scrub and then once with soft. While the handle does allow the unit to swivel, I had a hard time using it in corners. That said, given the speed and ease in which I did the central areas I didn't really mind taking a moment to touch up corners. The corner issue is my only negative.

Is this a light headset? If not, will it cause any head pain or anything? Im using this for long term use.
The headset is very light, under 1 pound. Good for long sessions. Some users have reported some tightness or pressure against their ears from squeezing. That is so subjective though.

What does it mean by limitied edition? Like is it only gonna be up and available for a certain time or is it only for the color scheme?
I believe the Sensory Bass is what makes these headphones a limited edition. They will really rattle your head.

Sleep better. Cover unwanted noise with soothing sounds. Bose noise-masking sleepbuds™ are uniquely designed for sleep. They don’t stream music or have acoustic noise cancellation. Instead, these tiny, wireless earbuds use pre-loaded, soothing sounds to cover up unwanted noises, so you can get to sleep — and stay asleep. Plus, unlike traditional earplugs, they’re super comfortable and made to stay in place all night long, even if you sleep on your side. 1. Choose your sound, 2. Set an alarm, 3. Fall asleep without unwanted noise.
How well do these work for silencing out loud snoring from your bed partner?
In my experience, it works very well at focusing my mind on the sounds or tones that are being produced by the earbuds so that other noises become unnoticeable. I can't say for sure that it will drown out every variety of snorer as you will still be able to hear very loud noises. What I liked is that the 10 noises that the earbuds come with seem to have a unique pitch, and I'm thinking that it would be crucial to find the best noise/pitch that matches the pitch of the snoring. I think you would have success.
