EXCELLENT LAPTOP!

This ASUS laptop is simply AWESOME! It is lightning fast, has a beautiful, rich colorful display and responds instantly to touch. It is also very light and fits well in my son's backpack. Very simple to set up and it ran all windows and Asus updates automatically! It has plenty of programs for his college school work and has enough memory, and drive space for all of his games. I would definitely buy it again!

THE BEST ANDROID SMARTPHONE..PERIOD!

This is my first Samsung and I have to say I am EXTREMELY impressed with this smartphone. I tried out all the flagships so far when my current phone stopped working thanks to my son dropping it in the ocean but I digress, and picked this one hands down! Coming from an LG G2 which in its day was one of the best, the screen on this phone is just AMAZING! I truly did not know what I was missing not having a "AMOLED" screen. Colors and text are just so crisp and clear it is an understatement. I have not had any build or red tint issues as others have described and the phone is extremely fast, lag free, and overall operates smoothly like butter! Of course I haven't loaded it up with a lot of apps and games either. Time will only tell. It has so many, and I mean, MANY customizable features it is hard not to find a feature that is not tweakable to your liking. Call quality is excellent and the speaker Is very loud and clear even though it is a single firing one on the bottom. The camera is fast to focus and takes excellent pictures as well, even in low light. Mine is a Verizon unit btw- Is this a phone or a piece of electronic art? I haven't decided but it is truly AMAZING!

AWESOME!

This can opener removes the top "lid" off of the can instead of just cutting out the top. You simply put the lid up to the guard and "push" the lever. It is every smooth in it's operation however, the lever is just a tad too firm to have to hold down while it is cutting the can. It doesn't stop "running" after it has made the rotation to cut the can so you have to listen for the change in tone of the motor to know that it has completed. I bought this for my elderly parent with arthritic hands as this one seemed to be the easiest to operate. Overall she has told me that it has performed well and she is now happy that she can prepare her wonderful meals with ease!

Does the Job!

I bought this to replace a aging Windstream router that was dropping the DSL signal. Just launced the set up wizard and all was well! I am getting excellent download/upload speeds much faster and stable than the windstream modem ever provided. I Now I get the speed I am paying for! I am also using a TP-Link Archer C50 Dual Band AC Router. Nothing fancy, just does what it is supposed to do.

Best Gaming Tablet...BUT
on December 16, 2016
Posted by: tekkie
Verified Purchase:Yes
This tablet has all the right specs to make it a great gaming tablet except for the display screen. The display has a YELLOW tint to it and changing the settings for the display only helps slightly. Also, the display fully lit is not as bright as my three year old Asus with less resolution. I say get it and try it out, see what you think. The tablet has a POWERFUL processor and the speakers are excellent however. For $199 though it simply cannot be beat! It does NOT come with a battery charger I should mention.

Only has one setting but it is quite powerful and will cool you down providing you keep it atleast 4 ft close to you. This one hasn't drained the 4 AA batteries it requires quickly like other personal fans we've had. This fan won't cool a room etc. It is what it is, an excellent personal fan!

Modern Machine!
on January 11, 2016
Posted by: tekkie
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a modern Windows 10 Desktop with the latest Intel i5 "skylake" 6400 processor. It is finished in a "brushed" dark gray with plastic chrome accents...looks very sleek and elegant. It starts really fast and runs virtually silent. I bought this machine due to it's multitasking ability. We can have 10 web browsers open, streaming netflix, email, playing games, etc. all at the same time and nothing so far has slowed it down. For every day household use and kids using it for playing games, I can't imagine a better computer for the money. The memory is also expandable to 16gb if you need it. The graphics card is pretty good actually. Our monitor only has VGA and DVI connections and this machine does not have a "DVI" connection only VGA and HDMI connections for both the graphics card and built in intel graphics. This machine also has a DVD/CD burner optical drive that we have not used yet but will come in handy no doubt in the future. There is also a SD/SDHC Memory card reader and the microphone/headphone jacks on the top front of the machine for easy access and use in addition to 2 USB type 3 connections located beside them. On the back you have the power and ethernet connections, VGA and HDMI, Audio, Graphics Card VGA & HDMI, 2- 2.0 USB and 2- 3.0 connectors. We have had this computer for a month now with absolutely NO hiccups, problems what-so-ever. Word of advice, be sure when you first turn the machine on and go thru the set up process, IMMEDIATELY run "Windows Update" (left click start button lower left bottom then left click "settings" then "update and security" then "check for updates" ..windows 10 is pretty easy to use once you learn it) to update everything and you will be all set to enjoy your new computer! Enjoy your new Lenovo!

Ensure a fresh, hot cup of coffee is waiting when you wake up in the morning with this Cuisinart programmable coffee maker. The large size of this 14-cup machine lets you indulge or entertain. Set a flavor profile for perfect results with each cup, and set this Cuisinart programmable coffee maker up to 24 hours in advance.
 

Do you have to use filters? I want this for an elderly couple and they would not change filters. Can they be left out?

IF your question implies having to use paper filters then no, you can use the gold tone filter that comes with the machine. You simply empty the grounds and wash it each use. You have to use either a paper filter or the one I mentioned. Hope that helps!
