Great suction and handy tools
on October 24, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Turbo Plus (long name I know!) has been a great vacuum with a ton of features and accessories. I have been testing mine out for that last two days and it seems to always pick up more dirt than I thought possible from my carpets. My carpets are about 15 years old, but still in decent shape from dealing with kids and dogs over the years. It’s a low pile carpet and the Bissell handles it like a champ. Suction power is outstanding, and I am very impressed with it. I am not sure what the CFM is, but it does feel stronger than my old trusty Dyson upright that has been in service for 6 years. The amount of attachments is a very welcome addition. The lighted crevice tool is very unique and helpful. I can’t believe I have never seen this before. Now I can see what I am going to suck up when I stick the crevice tool into a dark corner. The motorized hand tool works great on the couch where my dogs like to sleep and also on the stairs. It pulls up the hair and dirt with ease. There is also a Febreze deorderizer filter that is included, and I don’t feel that my house stinks, it sure does smell better after a good vacuuming now though. The dust bin is a good size and I am easily able to do my whole 2400 sq. ft. house with out having to empty it. Emptying the dust bin is easy and the dirt and hair just falls out. The 30 foot cord is great to have as well. Also included is a full 5 year warranty so you can purchase this and not have to worry about it for years. Their customer service is fantastic. I have had to deal with them with other Bissell products and they are responsive and helpful. They sent out a replacement for a broken spot carpet cleaner that arrived in two days. As a bonus, Bissell also donates $10 to their pet foundation that rescues pets for every vacuum that they sell.

No backlight, but still a great keyboard
on October 20, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
The Logitech K600 keyboard is an easy way to type on my smart TV. I have a LG UH8500 series TV with WebOS installed and trying to enter passwords or searches using the remote is always cumbersome. This keyboard allows you to just type normally and it is fast and responsive. The included touchpad and D-pad function as a mouse would, and the onscreen cursor will move to where you want it to. Installing it on my TV was also a breeze. I just plugged in the USB dongle, opened a web browser on my TV and visited the Logitech set up page and followed the instructions. I was also able to set up the keyboard to work with my Dell laptop (connected via BT) and to my Note8 as well for a total of 3 devices. I can quickly switch between the three devices with the 3 connection buttons on the top row of the keyboard. It is a QWERTY keyboard, so typing is familiar, but it is a little small so typing for a while is not what it is designed for, but it does work great for those quick things you need it for. It takes two AAA batteries to function and in the battery compartment it does have a spot to store the USB dongle, so you won’t lose it. My only gripe with the keyboard is that it does not have a back light. It would have been nice to have that feature since most of the time I am watching TV my living room is a little on the dark side. Other than that, I really like using this and it’s a much better option than using the magic remote that came with my TV.

All office products included!!

from Sparks, NV
I have been using Office 365 for a few years now and I have been very happy with it. It allows me to use the whole suite of office products that I have installed locally on my computers. Word, Excel, Outlook, Access, OneDrive, OneNote, Publisher are all included. OneDrive you get 1 Terabyte of data for each user (6 total users are included) I use OneDrive to back up all of my files for a safe and secure online storage. I have had to use it to restore after a hard drive failure and it worked great. I highly recommend having some sort of back up system and an online one such as OneDrive is a great feature to have in case of natural disaster or destruction of your home. That feature alone is worth it for peace of mind. All of the office products work as you would expect them and they are constantly updated to keep them protected from the latest exploits or bugs.

For a shave as close as a blade...
on October 16, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
This is the best electric shaver that I have ever used. I should probably elaborate some more on that, but honestly that statement rings true for me. The design of this shaver is incredible, I have never had one that felt so good in the hand as this one and the chrome/black really is sharp looking. I have been using electric razors for all of my life and all but one of them was a Norelco one. Norelco as a company stands behind their products and they have always been helpful when I did have an issue with a razor…even past the warranty. Speaking of which, you get two years with this one and if you register online, they give you an additional 6 months. The razor’s blades will last you about a year and it has an indicator that will let you know when it’s time to replace them. The head comes off and you are also give a trimmer attachment to put on. That is probably my only gripe…I do find myself using the trimmer a lot and my previous razors all had that built into the body, but this one you have to remove the head and swap it out. A minor inconvenience, but it does allow for additional attachments such as the skin cleansing brush (not included with this model). I plan to check that feature out. The buttons are easy to use as well. There is a power button and a toggle button where you can increase the power level by 3 settings. Also, the battery percentage is easy to see and will light up when you move the razor. There is also a clean head reminder. Of course this is a wet/dry shaver and sturdy carrying case and power adapter is included as well. My previous Norelco chargers are the same so it’s nice to see that they have not changed that.

Easy to use and great protection
on October 6, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
I have been using Bit Defender for nearly a year now and I have been very satisfied with it. It updates itself on a regular schedule so I never have to worry about doing that myself. I am always protected from the latest malware, phishing, rootkits, spam, spyware, adware, trojans, viruses, worms and keyloggers out. I have not noticed any performance hits to my computers or phones. My Note8 runs just as smoothly with the bit defender app running. When I download a new app or update, it atomically scans it for malware and lets me know that it is safe with a quick little thing on my screen (similar to when you connect to a WiFi network from your phone, the message comes up and goes away quickly). I am very happy with the protection that it provides and the how easy it is to keep updated and use.

Very accurate and easy to use
on September 29, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
The Logitech Pro G mouse has a minimalistic, simple and effective design. It’s very easy to use and set up with the included USB type A receiver. You can also use the proprietary USB type A cable that has a customized micro USB connector for just this mouse. Movement is very precise, quick, and smooth. No mousepad needed over most surfaces, even glass. It has an ambidextrous design and you can customize some of the included buttons to your liking. You also have the option not to use any of them or up to 4 to really configure it to your liking. The logo lights up with different colors and it’s a nice feature. The DPI button is located on the bottom of the mouse, but that is a point of annoyance for me since I like to be able to switch that out for different weapons while playing my First person shooters, I suppose placing it under there will eliminate unintended DPI changes for some, but I am betting the majority of gamers will not like not being able to change it quickly. It is also very light in the hand which will take some time to get used to. Battery life is rated at 48 hours with the default lighting scheme or you can extend that up to 60 hours if you turn that off. I kept it on since it adds a little flair to my mouse. The simple design, light weight, accuracy, battery life, and cool lights make this mouse a strong contender for not only my gaming sessions, but also my daily use as well.

Waterproof and durable!!
on September 22, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
This is a very handy little speaker. The sound it creates will make you think that it is a much larger speaker than it is 360 degrees of sound means you can hear it from every angle. A bit of clipping and distortion at high volume but playing around with the EQ in the App I was able to make it sound better. I really like that about it. Bass is not as good as I would like, but it does the job for the most part. You can pair it up with 150 additional Ultimate Boom speakers (Version 2 or Version3) for even more sound. I was not able to test out that functionality since I only have one. The speaker is IP67 rated (water proof and sand proof) for up to 30 minutes in 1 meter of water, but that part doesn’t matter really since it floats. That would come in handy if you are boating and happen to drop this overboard. Also, the Bluetooth range is great, I was able to get about 100 feet away and it still was streaming my music, but this was with a clear view of the speaker. The magic button is pretty awesome as well. You can use the App to create a playlist and simply hit the magic button and it will start your playlist, you don’t even have to touch your phone and of course it also functions to pause/play/FF music. There is also a place to hook it onto something which really comes in handy as well. Charging via the included USB micro cable from either a computer port (will take a while) or my Samsung Note8 wall adapter was fast to fully charge. This is rated to have a 15 hour battery which will easily last most parties.

Great NC headphones that will not disappoint.
on September 15, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
I do own the previous model of these headphones (the WH-1000MX2) and these are a slight improvement over those. The sound quality is still fantastic and even a little better than the previous model. The Smart listening SENSE ENGINE will auto detect what you are doing, say, sitting still, walking around etc and will adjust the listening and ambient sounds to meet those different environments. I did notice a slight pause in the music as it changed the mode that it was working in. A minor annoyance though. The QN1 noise-canceling processor is fantastic. I am not sure how Sony did it, but it cuts out just about any sound and leaves you only hearing the music from your headphones. I can wear these all day, they feel slightly lighter than the previous model and the ear pads are softer than before with a larger hole that encompasses your ears. The quick attention mode is a great feature as well. You simply have to cup your hand over the right headphone and it will mute the volume and activate ambient sound so you can have a quick conversation. Very handy feature so you don’t have to fumble for your device that is playing the music or pause anything. Sony includes a very nice carrying case that is soft on the inside and has a semi hard shell to protect your headphones. Also included is an airplane 3.5mm dual jack to a single 3.5mm headphone jack, along with a 3.5mm headphone cable that you can connect your headphones directly for a wired source. One of the biggest and most welcome improvements comes in the form of the USB Type C connector these use. Now I can carry around one less cable. Hands free calling is clear and crisp and my friend who I called said that the mic was working perfectly. The right side of the headphones, along with being used for quick attention mode, is also used to adjust volume, play, pause, or change tracks. Simple swiping motions or taps is all it takes to do that. The rated hours of use is slightly down from the previous model though. These are 30 hours which is 8 less than before, but to me that is still plenty of life for these things. You can use google assistant, but you must remap (using the Sony Headphones Connect App) the NC/Ambient button to do so. I did not change it since I liked being able to toggle between those modes more than I would use google assistant. There was a firmware update that I did have to do right out of the box and it took it about 30 minutes to complete. If you are in the market for a great set of headphones, the you cannot go wrong with these at all.

Power brick needed for charging.
on September 10, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
In my opinion, I don’t really care for the looks of this speaker, it reminds me of Johnny Five from Short Circuit the movie but looks are subjective. The handle seems a bit weak for the weight of this speaker, and it does weigh more than it looks. The sound is decent, but I have smaller speakers from a different manufacturer that sound better to me. It has pretty good bass overall. In a small room it sounds pretty good, but take it in a larger room or outside and it seems to lack volume. You can link up two speakers together to increase the sound. The lighting effects are good and are enjoyable to watch and my kids really like that part. I was surprised by the power brick that is required to charge it and you can’t charge it via USB, nor does it have a USB out to charge devices on the go. Hopefully the next model will have the power supply built into the speaker, so you don’t have to carry that around as well to power it up. Speaking of power, it lasted me about 15 hours before I had to charge it back up…plenty for most people I am sure, but if you plan to use it while camping or something like that, you might find yourself out of power if you don’t have an outlet to charge it. Overall, considering the price and the power brick and lack of volume, I really can’t recommend this, but hopefully the next version will have improvements.

Fast color prints and many features!
on August 19, 2018
Posted by: jago
from Sparks, NV
The Brother MFC-L3770CDW Color Laser Printer is a great home/office printer for just about most business or home users. It has built in fax capabilities (many businesses still use fax), fast color and black and white printing, duplex printing, scanning, wireless/cloud printing and also NFC printing. The starter toners are good for about 1,000 prints and I wasn’t able to find a price on the specific toners (TN-223) at the time of me writing this, but the other models were running about $60 for each (B/W, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) for the regular toners, but they also have a higher yield size TN-227. Regular toner yields around 1,400 prints and high yield nearly doubles that amount. The Drum kit is good for about 18,000 prints so that is another cost to figure into this printer at some point. Brother does offer a “Refresh” program, so you won’t ever run out of toner. You have the option to use that or not. This printer also comes with a 1-year warranty and phone or chat tech support for the life of the product. The 3.7-inch touch screen is a nice addition as well and is responsive and bright. I have never had a brother laser printer before, but I look forward to many years of service of this thing.

Simplify your everyday life with the Google Home, a voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant. Use voice commands to enjoy music, get answers from Google and manage everyday tasks. Google Home is compatible with Android and iOS operating systems, and can control compatible smart devices such as Chromecast or Nest."
 

Why is it so expensive?

Price is all relative. I didn't find it to be that expensive. It has a great speaker and it simply works really good. Its priced $50 cheaper than the Echo and the speaker quality is as good if not better.

We live in the country, and can only use satellite internet. It is not a real strong signal, and can be affected easily by weather. We also have a log home, which blocks the signal in certain areas of the house and porch. Would this help in our situation?

It won't help with your satellite signal, but the wifi signal in your house could potentially improved.
