Nice & easy little system
on September 10, 2022
Posted by: EAR1965
I was so excited to get this!!! When we first bought our house it had door chimes that worked, but a security system that did not. Reasonably priced, and sure, it claimed it would be easy to install...
I got the package and everything was packed separately which was a lot of cardboard, however a life saver to not get anything mixed up. So I followed the instructions and got the chimes installed on the doors and the kids windows-amazingly just remove take cover and pit in place. I installed the app on the phone and set up the keypad. Then I got a back injury which had me laid up for a week.
While I could not pay too much attention to what was going on, I could tell the comings and goings
by the door chimes. I had asked my sister to hang up the cameras but she would not- she is not a tech person as she puts it.
So, a week later I get the cameras set -nothing difficult about it at all. I used the old camera mounts and only had to drill 1 more hole ( we get some very heavy winds here- I wanted to be on the safe side) I did not choose monitoring but I do get notifications.
I feel a bit better having this but I did not put up the yard signs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice cheap little air fryer
on September 5, 2022
Posted by: EAR1965
I bought this for work use. So far it has been amazing doing everything from heating up leftover fries and pizza to making grilled cheese sandwiches. I do NOT recommend using for fish that is unbreaded…it will stink up the room and require a good cleaning with soap and water. Needless to say Tanya is no longer allowed to use the air fryer without supervision. Otherwise if the food is prepped correctly and fried at a good temp and time, a wipe up is all that may be needed. We have avocado spray oil as a healthier oil and it works perfect. Everyone at my office has given it an A+!
This fryer has a smaller footprint and is perfect for the office because of its size and price. Air fryers are very common these days and have tons of different features. Mine at home is a big 2 drawer fryer because I have a family of 6 and not everyone wants the same thing, or we can cook 2 different things at once. This one is perfect for one or two people. A great gift or simply to bring to the office- it is highly recommended!

The Shark Stratos Cordless vacuum is the ultra-powerful, ultra-intelligent answer to whole-home cordless deep cleaning. Clean Sense IQ uses infrared sensors to detect dirt you can’t see and automatically boosts power for up to 50% better* dirt pickup (vs. Shark Stratos Cordless in ECO Mode). Packed with power, Stratos offers the most suction of any Shark Cordless for up to 60 minutes runtime (In ECO mode, measured at the hand vacuum). Clean above the floor and in every crevice with the 2 included accessories: Duster Crevice Tool and Anti-Allergen Brush. Shark's MultiFLEX technology lets you bend the wand to reach under furniture or fold over for easy storage. No cordless vacuum picks up hair better* with the DuoClean PowerFins HairPro system- two brushrolls that dig deep into carpets, directly engages hard floors, and picks up dirt, debris, and hair in every pass. It features an LED display with real-time readouts to monitor battery, select suction levels, and engage Clean Sense IQ. Anti-Allergen Complete Seal with HEPA Filtration captures and traps over 99.9% of dust, allergens, and odor, keeping them out of the air you breathe. (*From floor to dust cup, third party tested on human/pet hair). Plus, Shark's new Odor Neutralizer Technology guards against bad odors inside your vacuum, for a fresh-smelling home.

This vacuum kicks (hairy) butt!!!
on August 29, 2022
Posted by: EAR1965
In a house with 3 cats and a dog, and 2 long haired people, the carpet in my basement is impossible to keep hair free. I had a Dyson that was supposed to pick up hair (same theory as this one) but I would have to go over a spot a few gazillion times. I even vacuumed half my floor and stairs with my old Dyson (battery died after 20 minutes) then used my new vacuum and was able to vacuum the entire floor and stairs. I had to empty the cup twice!
So, my vacuum fresh out of the box showed an 80% charge. I charged it up and set out to vacuum. The charge lasted longer than I had carpet so I used it everywhere else. I loved the little display that told me when I was very low on battery. It also ramps up power when I hit a very furry spot on the carpet to ensure the extra strength. The attachments are perfect to reach the cobwebs on my high ceilings and especially under the fridge and freezer, and under the washer and dryer. It is heavy so on a floor its fine, but the stairs may be difficult for some.
I would highly recommend this to any pet owner that is inundated with pet hair!!

Love this! Easy, versatile, and compact!!

Posted by: EAR1965
I had an art teacher once tell me 'there is no cheating in art', Sadly I can barely make a stick figure so....enter the Yaber Buffalo U2 Projector! This little machine has an easy start, simple instructions for an easy set us, and amazing results. My goal is to paint landscapes and such on my walls and with this...I can! Simply connect to my phone- pick what I want to paint or draw (or even write- such as little sayings and affirmations), display on the wall and I can paint! It comes with anything you may need and it packs nicely into the carrying case that comes with it- remote control, tripod and most cables needed-supply your own phone cable. The size makes it very easy to carry and move around. I can control the size of my masterpiece easily, pull the focus out for a more 'impressionist' painting, I CAN PAINT ON WALLS AND CEILINGS...IN THE SAME ART PIECE!!! My nephew will be home schooling this year so this will be used for his "art class". I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to do art but has been afraid to!!

How Often Used:3-5 times a week
I was not that impressed. They were difficult to use on a phone call- they could not hear me very well and the background noise was loud. The sound was great listening to a podcast while driving until I yawned while turning a corner and lost one. Until I yawned they fit great! I was glad it came with 3 different size buds- I was planning on sharing them with my nephew.
The charging cord is very short. While charging in my car it dangles which I am sure is not good for it.
I had a hard time navigating the controls. The buttons are so small and sometimes you have to hold it for longer than the instructions say, and then it may do something else. Sometimes they would turn off after 3 minutes of non- use and other time they would stay on for hours. And when that happened the battery would be dead when I needed them.
I did give 3 stars because the case is convenient. Nice to charge in and compact enough to fit in pockets. But, for a decent good sound, I’ll stick to my wired ear buds.

Mattresses like this are just not there yet.
on February 15, 2022
Posted by: EAR1965
Mattresses like this are just not there yet. I got this to replace an 8" mattress in a box because the 8" had no support and I would hit the platform often. So I see this 12" listed as a plush (I would think top of the line- fancy) Hybrid (I would think has the comfort and control of a real mattress but the ability to stuff in a box) and I was wrong. Sure, its light weight like any bed in a box would be, but again, no support. I can still hit the platform and there is no side support. When I sit on the bed to tie my shoes, I sink to the platform. I would guess this would be a good mattress for a child or a light weight adult, but not the average person.
One nice thing it once out of the box and wrapping it took seconds to come up to size, unlike our last bed in a box that 3 days...ug

Excellent Humidifier
on February 6, 2022
Posted by: EAR1965
from Lakewood CO
Living in Colorado requires a humidifier, the problem is finding good one. My great nephew gets constant bloody noses in the winter so we needed a nice quiet one and this one is great except on high. His little bionic ears can pick up the silent movement of water. What I like the best is that we can adjust the flow. There is a handle on top of the tank allowing it to be carried with ease. The tower has a smaller footprint then my other one allowing it to go just about anywhere, including nestled in the house plants.

A year ago I moved from nice and humid upstate NY to the high plains desert of eastern Colorado. Needless to say everything is DRY. I got this little humidifier to help. I like this one because it is quiet!!! The optional nightlight is nice if I ever have to put it in the kids room and the fact that I can run it for hours at a time ( good size tank) without me having to watch it constantly. If I buy more, I will get more this one!!!

I got this for lights to go under my bar in my basement. I thought they had a setting for just plain lights, but the color changing flashing lights are perfect!! I used them at a get together and everyone just loved it!! It added pizazz and was extremely easy to set up and use. It is a must have for party rooms!!!

Sooo nice yet sooo expensive

These need to be renamed Menopause sheets.
Anyway, These sheets fit my bed like a glove, like no other sheets I have had and with that- they stay in place all night so I sleep better. I stay cool, I dont know how, but I no longer hit a warm spot when I roll over. I no longer feel sweaty and uncomfortable when I wake up in the middle of the night- I can just roll over and go back to sleep.
After a week with these sheets I believe I am sleeping better.
What I do not like is that my dry feet catch on the sheets. As gross as that sounds, its true. Oh, and the price. The price is OUTRAGOUS. I like to have a couple of sets so I can rotate but with the price of these...ridiculous!! Because the price is so high I cannot recommend this product.

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.

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.
