My body likes this!!!

I got this and got the app and starting relieving my Cuboid Syndrome pain my my foot. It was great and the app showed me the proper head to use. While the app was OK and the bluetooth put a timer on it, I do not see a benefit for the app or the bluetooth, especially when I had to continually reconnect with each use- even when I had used it less than 2 minutes prior.
Many times after walking with lots of uphills, my calves get real tight and the flat attachment did an amazing job to the point that I did not suffer for 3 days. I feel like I can exercise a little more often.
I HIGHLY recommend looking at some youtube videos as well. There is a wealth of info out there with ideas to on how to use this to maintain and help.
I think this is a must for people that get sore often, especially as we age. And, if there is two people, it would be a great massage tool.
I gave it 4 stars because of the price. It is priced well out of range for most people. Because of this, I do not have friends that have this much money laying around so I would not recommend to a friend.

Just what my carpet needed!!!
on July 23, 2020
Posted by: EAR1965
from Groton NY
So, out of the box the battery was at one light. I charged it to full and that took about 3 hours max. I had vacuumed the day before so this was a real test. This is picture of the canister is from my carpet in my living room and the two little area rugs on my main floor. My 4 cats (long hair) are indoor so they shed constantly during the summer and I have constant balls of hair everywhere. But again, I had vacuumed less than 24 hours earlier. I am impressed. I then vacuumed the stairs and main bedroom and the canister needed to be empty- it is amazing this little thing really cleaned my carpets!!! I headed toward the third floor and the battery was dead. It lasted about 30 minutes. I let it recharge overnight and finished the third floor. I let it sit half charged for two days and it still showed half a charge meaning it did not lose any charge just sitting there. The noise level is low- cats did not freak out. It has a nice small footprint and can easily be hidden in a corner. I love the cordless appliances, but they really need to be universal. I now have a new battery and charger to keep track of.

Great phone cover
on July 17, 2020
Posted by: EAR1965
from Groton NY
I bought my first iPhone a few months ago and with it, I bought a 'pretty' sparkly clear phone cover for my green phone. It looked GREAT! I showed my daughter and she laughed and told me I need a better one. I got my new Lifeproof cover in a darker green/teal and it looks good. The phone snapped right in, perfect fit. The texture of the cover helps hold it so that is an added plus. There is a decent gap between the height of the cover and the phone so I know if I drop it the screen will not hit first. The buttons are orange so they are easy to see. Since this is an OtterBox, it has my daughters approval and all is good!!!

Decent little hand held mixer!
on July 9, 2020
Posted by: EAR1965
from Groton NY
I got this to replace a 19 year old mixer that I loved because it had a retractable cord. Now I have a cordless!!! Its cute, small, easy to hold, and lightweight. I mixed egg whites for an angel food cake and it whipped up nicely. While that was baking, I decided to try it on making a Dalgona coffee and again, it was great. Very quiet- my cats didn't even have to leave the room and I didn't need to turn the volume up on the TV!
The 7 speeds are smooth switching and get very powerful at 7.
I charged it over night- green indicator light stays on when fully charged. Then I let it set for a day to see if it held the same charge, and when I plugged it into the charger to see how much 'juice' was left, it was still fully charged.
**Why I only gave 4 stars** I was taught to put the beaters in before plugging in and that way you do not accidentally turn it on when your hand is near the beaters. You CAN'T DO THIS with this mixer simply because it is cordless. You put the beaters in to a live mixer. I do not recommend this for kids to use alone. Maybe thats my own paranoia but...
And, now I have to keep track of three pieces- beaters, mixer, and power cord.

Amazingly easy
on May 1, 2020
Posted by: EAR1965

This tv actually intimidated my 54 year old self with the size and specs, however I was able to carry it up my stairs to my room and set it up. I was a bit confused by all the instructions for set up, but since I am wireless I realized I only had to plug it in! So, I plugged it in, added the tv to my Google home account and started watching. At first it worked great and I was able to use Google to control it, then Google just said it wasn't connected. Come to find out I needed to do an update. I did the update and it is working perfectly with my Google home.
The picture quality is downright amazing. I have never had a tv that looked almost 3D. The picture is real enough that my cat actually watched tv with me last night. I don't understand all the specs, I just know good picture when I see it and this tv has it. And my cat Stewie approves!

Will be perfect for sleeping!

**note-This is heavier than any window unit I have had.
The box arrived with everything inside and no excessive packing. I am planning on moving this around my house as needed so i didnt attach it to the window I put it in. I put it together per the instructions, slid it into place and adjusted the sides. Then I downloaded the app, created an account and set out to see how well a smart AC really is. It is in my kitchen set to 65*F and it turned on with the full display. After about 30 seconds the display went off but it kept cooling. This means I can have it in my bedroom at night without a light show!! So, I went outside and walked down the street and changed the temp and it did it telling me the smart ap works. Then I shut the kitchen door and cranked the oven. I had the AC set to 70 and it kicked on perfectly.
It is quiet compared to every AC unit I have had so it may find its permanent summer home in the master bedroom. I also love that it is Energy star.

Quiet, well constructed. Close but no cigar...

Posted by: EAR1965

So Domestic partner did a side by side comparison with his 9 year old Panasonic shaver. Even timed to make sure each side was given the same treatment. And, they felt the same- a little bit of stubble. However the Philips is nice and quiet and seems to be well made. Neither one got as smooth as a manual razor, but the ease balances that out. No shaving cream, can use it anywhere, no water. He is now using both electric and manual to save time and water and get the very close shave.
What we came up with is...electric shavers are good and make great expensive gifts. But...think twice before getting one for a guy that wants a perfect perfect shave.

Eh...not impressed yet
on November 28, 2019
Posted by: EAR1965
from Groton NY
I do not sleep well. Never really have. I got this to help me to understand and fix this. Ain't happening with just this.
All the info I entered. Was my day stressful? Did I take a nap? Did I have caffeine? After the 5 or 7 days the 'report' simply regurgitated this in a new form compiled from the days I entered it. The only thing this app did was record me sleeping...and snoring.
I used the Philips Snore Relief Band with it in hopes of seeing a correlation between the amount of snoring and wearing of the band...nothing. My snoring was the same and my sleep quality and quantity was still horrible.
The report also told me I need to sleep later in the morning. I get up at 4:15am for a reason...its called my job. And, it told me to go to bed later than I normally do. I am usually asleep by 8:30pm and this told me to change my bed time to 9:30.
I have tried a few things to help me get better sleep and so far nothing has helped.
The hardest thing about this is remembering to turn it on. The best part was when I had a nightmare and it recorded me growling in my sleep.

It actually works!!!
on November 1, 2019
Posted by: EAR1965
from Groton NY
I snore. My housemate who lives on the floor above me hears me sometime. I wake up often. I had a cruise ruined because of snoring. I can't afford the cost to go to a sleep study and I suck at dieting. So, I gave this a try.
I am not a small person- 5'8" and 240lbs. When I pulled out the belt I almost laughed, but then I put it on, cinched it up, and I could hardly tell I had it on. I slept with the empty belt the first night while the unit charged just to see if I could tolerate it and I had no problems. The next night was the test. I wrestled the unit into the belt, strapped it on, and went to sleep. The vibration it sends is so gentle yet enough to make you move, so I slept very well. It never slipped down, never pinched...was very comfortable. When I woke up I ran through the sequence the (very poor) display shows (time slept, time on back, and percentage ) and was impressed. I did not recall being woken up to roll over but I guess I did.
The next night I forgot to turn it on but still slept wearing it.
There have been times when I am just so comfortable that I refuse to roll on my side and it continues to vibrate so I eventually do wake up and roll over. Other times I do not believe I am as far on my back as it thinks I am and it starts vibrating.
There was only one BIG con I could find and I am sure will be worked out as technology advances. The display is horrible and sometimes difficult to read.
I think this will be a great tool to help me sleep a bit better and I am very grateful for that.

Nice monitor

I have a 31" monitor at work and I love it so I got one for myself. I love that I can now do a split screen without making each item so small my old eyes cant read it. The picture and refresh are perfect for movies- everything is nice and crisp. The only thing I would change is the high gloss. I have to turn off my wall light or I get a BRIGHT reflection.
This is a nice addition to my computer desk! Love it!!

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.

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.
