Not bad!
on December 3, 2016
Posted by: EAR1965

I got this as I was sick and tired of the electric razors made for women. They only do one thing and this does a LOT. I can shave my legs and underarms, trim nose hairs (yes, women have those as well as men), trim my aunts neck- she wears her hair short and needs a neck trim between hair cuts, and if I feel really crazy come summer time, I can give myself a faddish head shave. The little bag that came with it is great for storing all the different trimming heads, otherwise I am sure the bag would be good for travel (but then where would you store all the trimming heads??). I have been using it for about 2 weeks and so far so good!

Usually I need tech support ( my daughter) to help with things like this but I was able to do it all by myself. So far works great- have not had a buffer circle so I am happy

Vacuuming can be fun
on September 20, 2016
Posted by: EAR1965
I gave this 4.8 stars (not quite a 5 star) however there are a couple of 'things' that I had problems with that others may have as well.
First-pro- It did NOT scare the daylights out of my cat!!! Very quiet and small.
Second pro- I just vacuumed my stair and did not kill my back like lifting my upright does.
Third Pro- a LOT less cob webs in my house now that I can reach my ceiling without lifting an entire vacuum.
Fourth-pro- seems very nice to my hard wood floors.
Fifth pro- Did not disturb the one spider in my house that I try to keep alive (she LOVES flys and mosquitoes) while I cleaned all around her web/nest.
First con- No where does it say to release the handle to vacuum, you simply unclick the handle out of the upright place. I spent some time trying to figure out why I was pressing on the little foot symbol and the handle was not releasing. I see this as a potential wear area that rings of planned obsolescence .
Second con- you cannot rest this while running to move something out of the way, like a table or cat toy as it is top heavy
Third con-the 12" crevice tool with brush says the brush is removable but I can't see how
I really like this vacuum and even though I only used it one, I think it will a nice easy to use appliance!

OMG...how cool!!!
on September 17, 2016
Posted by: EAR1965
I was extremely skeptical of this product. I used to be a HUGE coffee snob and the menopause hit and now I like everything!!! But anyway... When I got it, cleaned it and plugged it in, I tried to figure it out without turning it on- can't really do that so I finally turned it on and made a cup of flavored coffee I did't really care for to try to get my bearings. While I trust directions, I had to do the measuring that I have always used in my other coffee pot and the directions are accurate. I noticed as well that the machines foot print is not much bigger than a regular coffee pot. I had to stop using my French press and other non filter coffee makers as the sediment started to hurt my throat so again I was skeptical about the permanent filter, but I got a VERY smooth cup of coffee in no time! Then I got creative and make a pumpkin latte...I am sold!!! The frother really works and it works quickly and it cleans easily. I have not tried the iced feature yet- maybe later. I also have no info on long term use, but this initial use is great!!

Great little tablet!
on June 6, 2016
Posted by: EAR1965
Easy to set up to my liking. The back 'button' is on the screen, not the frame where you can't see it like my large Samsung tablet. Front and back camera is a great touch. This is the tablet I would get for my elderly aunt since it is so easy to use. Not a big fan of the high gloss on the screen but it seems that everything has that now...very reflective and annoying.

Appears to be good...

This is physically a BIG router with lots of antennas. I am not tech savvy so I called Lynksys and got great help and Val had me up and running in a few minutes. However...had there been instruction with the box I may have been able to do it myself. Had it contained instructions I would have given all 5 stars.

The Shark Cordless Pet Plus Vacuum with Anti-Allergen Complete Seal combines powerful suction with cordless convenience to deliver deep cleaning on all floor types. Its lightweight design and removable hand vac allow for cleaning from floor to ceiling.
 

We live in an 1100 square foot apartment. Mostly hardware floors. Could this work as your only vacuum? (except for a small handheld we use for corners, etc.)

I think it would be great! The top comes off for storage and the attachments work perfect. My house is over 2300 sq ft and it completes in one charge.

Wemo WiFi Smart Outdoor Plug gives you total smart control over your lights, holiday decorations and other outdoor devices. Featuring two splash-proof and weather-resistant outlets, you can set schedules and control two devices together from anywhere by using the app or your voice with Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, or Hey Google.* It’s perfect for the patio, yard or other spaces where you’d like to manage electric outlets. You can also use Away Mode to randomly turn porch or landscape lights on and off when you’re not home. Sync lights connected to the Smart Outdoor Plug with the sunset and you’ll walk out to a backyard that’s ready for evening activities.
 

I actually have 3 questions. Is this device gfi protected? Can I control each outlet separately? I’ve yet to see a straight answer on that question What are the current and temperature ratings for the device?

I spoke with an electrician and he states that since the instructions suggest to plug into a GFI, it is not a GFI itself. I have not tried to control each separate and I do not see where I can so I would say No. I am unsure about the other questions- sorry!!

The Filtrete™ Maximum Under Sink Water Filtration System 3US-MAX-S01 is easy to install and maintain. It's an under sink water filtration system that connects to the kitchen or bath faucet.
 

Can the filter be turn off if I am using the faucet for other than drinking water? Will it still use the filter? Shorten the 6 month life span on the filter?

I think you would have to remove the filter and reattach the hose. Not very convenient if done often.

Philips SmartSleep Snoring Relief Band: Reduce snoring and improve the quality of your sleep with this Philips SmartSleep snoring relief band. The integrated sensor detects whenever you are sleeping on your back and lightly vibrates to spur you to turn to the side and stop snoring. This Philips SmartSleep snoring relief band incorporates smart features that adjust vibration levels and patterns based on your responses during sleep.
 

How does it work!? I can’t find any info on this sleep band.

It is strapped to your chest and it gently vibrates when it senses you are laying flat on your back. Once you roll on your side it stops. It has helped me.

I purchased this Ninja less than month ago, love the features, but not yet excited about the taste. Getting a lot of thick sediment on the bottom of the cup immediately when poured and moments after it's been brewed. PLEASE help...I love my coffee!

That is a problem with permanent filters. I use size 2 (size 4 for the full pot machines) cone filter and that will remove the sediment. I hate the sediment as well and it hurts my throat.

What do you use when you want to stored it for long period of time after use? Will the water in the chamber be ok or should I run some type of solution?

You should always drain it. Make sure it is completely dry and empty. Rinse well before the next use and always use fresh cold water to make your coffee.
