Disappointing - lots of issues

Verified Purchase:Yes
This TV has been a huge disappointment. This was our first "smart" TV. After getting it set up, I discovered a week later it could no longer connect to the Internet and couldn't even see any WiFi networks. After considerable research and trouble-shooting, I ended up doing a factory reset, which seemed to fix the problem. A week later, same issue: No internet, and none of the wifi networks were detectable. Another factory reset fixed the problem. I did some research online and found other people had had this problem with Samsung TVs in general, and the solution was to turn off auto-update. I did that, and the issue with losing the internet connection is now resolved, but our "smart" TV now can't auto-update. Then we learned about "judder". My husband, who watches more TV than I do, noticed his favorite shows had jerky video. I did some research on this and found that, again, Samsung TVs have an issue with the "Auto Motion" setting. We turned it off and it helped. This "smart" tv isn't so smart. In fact, it's a PITA, and it's going back to Best Buy tomorrow. I think we'll replace it with a 55" Sony, a brand we've never had any issues with in the many years we've owned them.

I had to purchase this in order to have Best Buy do the installation of the new LG dryer I purchased from them. It works as designed. Nothing more to say.

This dryer cord is required for successful hook-up of your new appliance. Our delivery personnel will determine whether a 3- or 4-prong cord is needed based on the outlet behind your existing dryer.

What else can you say about this product other than it works as designed. If you have an LG washer/dryer set that you need to stack, you need this product.

Best Dryer I've Owned Yet

Verified Purchase:Yes
The last washer/dryer I bought was over 10 years ago, so it was a bit of a shock to have to figure out how to operate this beast with flashing lights that plays little electronic tunes when you turn it on and when it finishes a load. It drys clothes very efficiently. Clothes don't feel "baked" when done, nor are they damp in spots. I've only done 4 loads of laundry thus far and am in love with this machine. It's also very quiet. I wish Best Buy would let people edit reviews after posted, as I'd love to come back in a few months with an update after I've had more time to use it. Hopefully this machine will be as reliable as it is effective at doing its job.

The last washer/dryer I bought was over 10 years ago, so it was a bit of a shock to have to figure out how to operate this beast with flashing lights that plays little electronic tunes when you turn it on and when it finishes a load. It does an amazing job of cleaning and the spin cycle gets an incredible amount of water out of the clothes. I've only done 4 loads of laundry thus far and am in love with this machine. It's also very quiet when running (once you get it balanced correctly). I wish Best Buy would let people edit reviews after posted, as I'd love to come back in a few months with an update after I've had more time to use it. Hopefully this machine will be as reliable as it is effective at doing its job.

Ultra tiny, perfect for my needs

I purchased a new 2 in 1 laptop and needed a 16GB flash drive for the creation of a system backup. I was happy to find this package of two tiny flash drives, one which I could use for the backup and the other for general use, at a reasonable price. The covers fit very securely so there is little worry of damage to the USB end. The only downside I found was trying to get the teeny tiny rings that enabled you to attach the drives to a keyring hooked onto the corners. They aren't kidding when they call these "Micro"!

Installed without a hitch, working great

Verified Purchase:Yes
When looking to purchase a cable modem to eliminate the cost of renting one, the choices came down to either a Motorola Surfboard or this Zoom product. After reading some bad reviews on Motorola Surfboard connectivity & speed, and virtually no bad reviews on the Zoom connectivity & speed, I opted to go with this unit. I'm extremely happy with it. Being a Comcast customer, I was required to call their customer service number and give them information needed to activate it, which took no more than 10 minutes. It's been up and running flawlessly since installing it over a month ago, and speeds are almost always better than expected. Given that this unit is cheaper than the comparable Surfboard model, it's an unbeatable deal for anyone looking to ditch their modem rental fees. Some folks have claimed this unit runs "hot", and while it is warm to the touch I wouldn't call it hot by any means. It's no hotter than the external hard drive I use for backups. FWIW, I have this paired with a Netgear WNDR4500 wireless router, which I re-configured (reset and ran the install wizard) when the new Zoom modem was up and running to ensure the two units worked properly with each other.

Are these flash drives compatible with windows 8.1?

Yes, they are compatible with Windows 8.1. I used one on my new Win8.1 laptop to create a system backup, and used the other to transfer some files from my Win7 PC to the new Win8.1 laptop.
