Easy setup for plug and play monitor. Monitor comes with an assortment of cables which is rare today. Picture is big and vivid. I like how the settings adjust using a joystick like panel. Low glare screen makes viewing easy on the eyes.

This is my second Skybell. I replaced the older version that was round. Installed very easily, 20 minutes. Even came with a concrete drill bit. Syncing with my Skybell account was easy. What I like about Skybell is they don't charge you a subscription fee, like others do. The only complaint I have is I had to drill new holes. I wish they would have this item align with standard doorbell screws so if you move, you can easily swap it out. This will require some filler and paint. That is my only complaint. Great picture and video quality.

I tried other off brand wireless charges that didn't work. I'm glad I tired the Belkin.. It works perfectly. All I did was plug it in and set my phone down. Awesome device!!

I have used Logitech touch screen remotes for years. I wasn't sure this one would meet my needs but it nocked it out of the park. Set up was simple. Entered a few pieces of info, made some adjustments and it worked. I even have a HDMI splitter that works with this remote. Activated are voice activated and the remote works with a variety of devices. My expensive Logitech did not work with the Firestick and this one did. Also works will all my video games. Really happy with this device. It does so much but is not complicated and very simple.

Adjust the temperature of almost any room in your home with just a few simple taps on your smartphone with this Honeywell Home T9 smart thermostat with sensor. The intuitive interface and touch-screen design make this thermostat quick and easy to use. This Honeywell Home T9 smart thermostat features geofencing technology, so you can conserve energy while you're gone and enjoy a comfortable temperature once you return.

I used this thermostat to replace the Honeywell RTH 9580. I have two HVAC systems; one still uses the RTH 9580 and the other uses the T9. Let’s start with the good. This device comes with a satellite temperature sensor so that another room will be the exact temperate you desire (like a bedroom). The sensor was easy to set up. It has geofencing which allows it to learn and adjust to your presence in the home. You can use this feature, a schedule or both. It has better vacation adjustments allowing you to set and exact date vs permanent hold (which is also available).
So why 2 stars? Let’s start with setup. I am pretty savvy with electronics and expected this to take 20 minutes. It took 4 hours. I could not get it to connect to the app. It said it was connected to wifi but not the cloud. I tried my guest network as well and got a different error. I called support who didn’t seem to know what the issue was. They tried to get me to connect to my 5 GHz network but mine is combined. That turned out to be the problem. I use an Orbi mesh router. It’s the one that allows you to put satellites throughout your home. My RTH 9580 works fine on it along with the 100+ devices connected. I primarily use the Orbi as an access point and disabled wifi on my fios router. I enabled the wifi under a different network name on my fios router and it worked. Support should have known this compatibility issue. I later googled the thermostat online and read another story with the exact same issue and extensive time to diagnose. Moving on, the next issue is the app. The RTH 9580 uses Honeywell Total Connect Comfort app and the T9 uses Honeywell Home. You can’t connect both to the same app. So for me to adjust the temp in my house, I have to open up two separate apps. Unacceptable. The app isn’t as clean as the Honeywell connect comfort interface but you get more options like adjusting the system. The t9 does not allow you to adjust the display background color like the RTH does. The t9’s depth is lightly more than the RTH and as always, the mounting holes don’t come close to lining up so you better get the spackle and touch up paint out.
I’m still debating if I will keep this or reinstall my RTH. The geofencing and satellite are great features but not ones I will use. This should have been an upgrade from the RTH and it really isn’t for my purposes but Honeywell could have combined the features and apps to make it more consumer friendly and a better product. If you use an Orbi as your only router, you might have issues unless an update is released. In a nut shell, it just feels this was not ready for prime time. Honeywell is a big company and should have integrated it better with their existing products.

This does what it says but does require Google Home to operate. Many ways to control lighting. Wish it worked with Apple.

There is a lot I like about this vacuum. It has a long battery life, web application, and powerful suction. The web app gives you a visual map of where the vacuum has been. I have another brand and the suction and features are superior. So why 3 stars? This vacuum struggles to get back to base. I have used it 6 times and it has failed to complete the job without getting stuck and requiring human intervention. I have an area rug that it gets stuck on. It is pretty shaggy but my other model works around the rug. It gets stuck under my bed. There is a way to block off areas with the app but I have not been able to figure it out. Many great things and if your surface is pretty consistent, it might work perfectly. For me, it does not.

Really like the quality of this monitor. Picture is sharp and easy on the eyes. Offers 2 HDMI connection and traditional monitor hook up. Only think I don't like about it is the stand. The way it angles, it keeps it from being flush to the back of the hutch on desk. Small detail considering everything else is great.

I am very happy with this item. They have thought of everything. I have used other brands and they don't come close. This is the one to buy. Yes, its a little more expensive but the others don't last, and they don't do as good as a job. For storage, the handle flips down, a really nice feature. The clean water and dirty water are completely separate and the tanks are large where you are not changing them every 5 minutes. Both tanks can be removed individually or together with a caddy system they have. The only thing not included are tools to clean furniture but they can be purchased. I rarely give five stars but this is a solid five stars. Highly recommend.

I ordered this to replace a cheaper model. This item works as described. I get good Bluetooth connection with a decent range. I have a cheaper model and this has better range and seems a bit more solid. Pairing is easy. It does create a slight delay which I thought would be improved with this model but it is the same as others. It is nice to have portable speakers around.

what do I need to use my 23-inch monitor with my laptop
If you lap top has a monitor output, you can use a monitor cable. If the monitor has an HDMI input and your laptop has an HDMI output, you can connect that way. I use a device called Toshiba Dynadock. It connects to your computer via a USB cable and has monitor and HDMI outputs, USB outputs, and a Ethernet jack. You plug all of your devices into it so that there is only one cable to plug or unplug into your laptop when you take it on the go.

Need the mount (table) for Magnavox LD-4065 (40"TV)
I am looking for a TABLE (not Wall) mount for a Magnavox LD-4065 (40" TV). Somewhere along the line we lost the actual table mount for this TV, and would like to just have it freestanding.
My guess is you have two option. 1) contact Magnavox or a supplier and order a new table mount. or 2) mount it to the wall at the height of the table so it appears to be on a mount.. I personally would mount it to the wall if you can. It is safer and will never fall of the table. You can easily move the table to vacuum and the TV will stay in place.
