So far, so good

Verified Purchase:Yes
Two things I don't like:
1) The space under the ice maker is smaller than the one in the refrigerator we owned previously. As a result, some containers, like my coffee maker tank, don't fit upright. They still work at an angle, but that means that they don't fill up.
2) We thought the top drawer was a freezer. It's not. It's a "flex-drawer", which means you can set it to any of four temperature ranges, the coldest of which is around 29 degrees F. Not a major problem since the bottom drawer is quite large and has a sliding tray and a small shelf.
Other than that, we're happy with this product.

Keyboard works well with iPad Air 2

It's an excellent combination case/keyboard. It syncs automatically when you set the keyboard edge into its slot. I also like the extra function keys at the top.
The only problem so far is that it's a little difficult to plug in and remove the charging cord because the edge of the case gets in the way. Not a major problem.

Another great Apple product

I got the 128GB version for the price of the 64GB model. That's way more memory than I'll ever use.
It works great. I love the way it syncs with my iPhone. When I first set it up, it automatically loaded all the apps that were on my phone. Great time saver.

Fun to watch - could be smarter

Robert (our name for our Roomba) does a great job picking up dirt. It also does a pretty good job wandering around the house, but you'd better do some preparation before turning him loose.
On the first day, Robert knocked over a card table, which fell on him and gave him his first ding. You also want to make sure that there are no wires on the floor that he can reach. You don't want him to be pulling on them and have who-knows-what fall off a table.
He's also not that great at re-docking. He has to be pretty close to the dock and, even then, he gets lost sometimes.
Beyond those items, we have no complaints.

Works fine, instructions are incorrect

The instructions say to pull out, then down. This is incorrect. First, you have to pull the front of the filter down, then pull it out. It's been incorrect for quite a while.

Excellent iPhone wallet case
on November 11, 2014
Posted by: PeteTheGolfer

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's not cheap, but it's a nice leather case that you can fold back completely. It has three pockets for credit cards or whatever, plus a window pocket for a driver's license and a compartment where you can store cash or a few more cards. I wouldn't put more than three cards or just a few bills there to keep it from being too bulky to close.
My previous case had a tab to keep it closed and, at first, I thought the lack of one would be a problem. Turns out it's actually better. The case can't open when it's in my pocket and when I take it out, it opens without having to disengage a tab.
I like it.

Almost Perfect
on September 15, 2014
Posted by: PeteTheGolfer
from Jacksonville, FL
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've gone through three or four clock radios and finally found one that's well designed. The display is visible in bright light, but it can be dimmed a bit if desired. The buttons are gray with black letters, making them easy to read. They're at the top, so the radio doesn't move when you push them.
It has ten presets, which is more than I need. There is only one button to move to the next preset, so the only choice is to go up from 1 through 10, then back to 1. You can't go backwards, so if you don't use all your presets, you have to skip the unused ones to go back to a lower one.
What I did was to repeat the presets to fill in the unused slots, but that shouldn't be necessary.
One other minor annoyance is that I had to stretch out the antenna wire to get good reception. Other radios I've had didn't need that.
Other than that, it's perfect.

What's great about it: Big, bright display. Easy to read buttons.
What's not so great: Switching to next preset only goes one way

If I want a camera, I'll buy a camera
on June 7, 2014
Posted by: PeteTheGolfer

Verified Purchase:Yes
I returned this item. It works as advertised, but I wanted a camera that's easy to use. I tried to take some pictures of baby geese. I couldn't see the geese because of the reflection in the screen. All I could see was me.
Why does the glass have to be so shiny?
It was even worse when I set a security swipe pattern. I couldn't see the dots to repeat the pattern.
Most of the time, when I turned on the camera, it played a tune and showed a picture of a guy looking through a telescope. By the time that finished and I swiped the security pattern, I forgot what I wanted to take a picture of.
I got the Samsung SX700 instead.

Is the person sitting next to the person with these headphones on, able to hear what is being said on the headphones? I apologize for the round about way I asked that question. My mother is very hard of hearing

I can't hear the headphones when my wife is using them, but I don't hear very well.

The Waterwall™ dishwasher has a first-of-its-kind sliding spray bar that moves back and forth to deliver a powerful, streaming wall of water with remarkable cleaning results. The AutoRelease™ door opens automatically to circulate air and accelerate drying time. With Zone Booster you can target certain areas of the dishwasher with custom settings to wash delicate glasses and tough-to-clean pots - all in a single load.
 

Does anybody know where the serial number is on this dishwasher? I have no paperwork on it (plan to go to BB and get some), and I can't find the serial number on the unit.

Never mind. My wife found it for me. It’s right on the top edge of the door.

You know we guys can’t find anything that’s right in front of us

My Logitech keyboard is for German but when I type, the numbers/punctuation are not what the keys say. How do I change this

One of the function keys at the top says it's to change the keyboard. Maybe that's what you have to do.
