Really Cool Table that allows you to chose your deign to be created by a little marble that rolls around. Download the app and the different designs and it marble does all the work. The body is plastic but durable. The glass top allows you to set items on it. There is nothing to complain about this device. It not a need more of a fun item to buy and a great conversation piece to have at home. The led light changes colors or allows you to select your won color. Many options on the application. It doesn't take long for a design to complete. The longest was an hour or two. It comes with the sand and a little rake to make the sand ready for the next one. My wife and kids enjoyed this and planning the next creation. I received the larger version which was bigger than I thought. I think either are fine but you may want the smaller one if your table is on the small side. If you are into different and unique things, this may be the conversation piece you are looking for. You will enjoy it.

Great Hard Drive. It is super small and quiet! You hear nothing while it is running. It has mac, windows and android files preloaded. I plan on connecting it to my Nvidia Shield to use to record programing and expand storage. It comes with usb type C and usb type A cables allowing you to connect it to old and new devices. Response was fast too. This is great if you are looking for a small compact SSD hard drive. I love Samsung products and this one did not disappoint. There are so many options available and I always want a product that I know I can rely on to be dependable. Samsung claims it is water resistant. I did not test it and will assume it is-hopefully will never need to know. This hard drive does not heat up like other mechanical ones will. I was able to transfer larger files and the transfer rate was exceptional and fast. The exterior is a rubber like soft finish. It doesn't seem like it will chip and won't dent. Pricing seems in line with other quality products with similar specifications.

They’re are many great advantages to Beats Fit Pro. I like how it integrates with apple showing you battery level. The sound quality is superb. Easy to use. Set up took me some time. I had the earbuds in wrong so I was not hearing any sound. Charging uses a usb-c but it is usb-c on both ends. I only have one charger with a usb-c outlet so I have to use my ipad pro charger. I have always used Apple products but the initial sound on this is better.

The Canon imageFORMULA R10 portable document scanner is simple to set up and easy to use, anywhere. Easily convert paper documents to searchable digital files, using the built-in software, to get and stay organized.

Love this scanner. It's small but mighty. When I scanned my first document, i was shocked at how fast the document scanned and it did both sides at the same time. Amazing. The software lets you select where and what file type to save it as. I really like that it allows you compress PDF files as well. Set up was easy but be careful. Mine asked to update the firmware. I thought it wasn't responding and realized the process takes time. It warns you not to turn of the computer or scanner during the update but I was ready to when it initially appeared to be unresponsive. Give the update time and you will see how great this scanner is.

You shouldn’t have to settle for a watered-down version of your favorite iced coffee at home. By brewing at a lower temperature, preinfusing and offering the ability to customize to an extra strong taste, smooth, full-bodied coffee over ice that is never watered down. An automatic bean-to-cup machine, Dinamica offers “one-touch” beverages: espresso, long espresso, drip-style coffee, and a new feature - Over Ice, just select the strength to your liking. To deliver the freshest brew possible, the Dinamica’s revolutionary technology grinds the perfect amount of your favorite beans leaving no residual coffee in the brewing unit. Also, with an integrated Premium Adjustable Frother, you can create Italian classic cappuccino with a dryer milk foam texture or choose the Hot Milk setting for your latte. And cleanup is a snap, taking half the time of other machines - just pop out the drip tray, and drop it in the dishwasher.

My wife and daughter are big coffee drinkers. Espresso’s are really easy to make. Latte’s, ice coffee, and a good old fashion cup of coffee taste just as good as any coffee shop if not better. It is amazing how simple it is to operate. I watched videos and on line reviews to get acclimated. The manual is pretty straight forward but there is so much to this machine. Once you get the hang of it, it's really simple. I love that you can program the keys to customize strength, serving sizes, and any other feature to make the machine perfect for you. Simply add beans and water and the machine does everything for you. You are able to put pre ground coffee in but why would you when they make it so simple. The machine is easy to clean, even the frother! For the most part, it self cleans with a other that a few rinse and wipe down. Coffee comes out fast! I bought French Vanilia flavor syrup to taste like any high premium coffee. I saw on the web some people add spices as well. It comes with a hard water filter but I didn’t need it given I have a water softer. If you like coffee shop coffee, this is definitely worth consideration. Not nly will it save you money in the long run but who wants to go out for coffee all the time when you can make it at home.

I use a surface for work and thought I would try this one for home. I like the screen is a bit bigger than a 13" model but yet no too bog like a 16" screen. Windows hello works well so you don’t have to enter your password to log in each time. Boots up quick. Runs windows 11 which is really nice. The screen does not detach like other surface models but swings around and allows you to adjust if you are using it to watch videos. It will adjust flat like a tablet but it is a bit bulky. Love using the pen too and it stores magnetically in a place where you don’t have to worry about losing it. This is a great lap top!

One of the biggest headaches with the new M! chip Macs is they would only let you add one monitor. I like to have two monitors extended. This device works perfectly. Just download the driver and it will work. In the directions, there is a “-“ at the end of a line, that is not to be added to the download site. It’s just telling you the address extends to the next line. It’s a must have if you want multiple displays. Extra usb 2, ethernet, VGA, Audio, USB C, (2) HDMI, USB3, SD micro reader.

Finally. A robot vacuum you can rely on to get the job done. The Roomba j7 + robot vacuum packs 10x the power-lifting suction and comes with unique intelligence to avoid cords and pet waste. It even understands times when you’re home and seasons when more cleaning may be needed. Compared to the Roomba 600 series cleaning system.

This is my forth robotic vac and so far it works pretty good. The first run ran flawlessly. It cleaned my entire first floor with no issues. The second run it got stuck under the table. It cleans well. Not too noisy except when it empties the dirt out of the unit but that feature is really nice to have and it only takes a few seconds. Only down fall is you have to buy bags for the unit that empties the robot. Really like the phone app. Works well.

Love this device. Very easy to use. Simply put the cuff on, tap a button and the rest is done for you. Even comes with batteries. Keeps a log over time and tells you what it is doing. Great item! Very reasonably priced too!

Imagine having the magic of a movie theater right in your home and feeling totally immersed in every scene. With the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 with Dolby Atmos, you can. Custom-engineered upfiring dipole speakers work with advanced Bose technologies to make it seem like your room is filled with sound from every direction. Even overhead. It’s like you can almost feel the rain coming down during your favorite movie. For content that isn’t encoded in Dolby Atmos, proprietary TrueSpace spatial processing intelligently analyzes signals other than Dolby Atmos, like stereo or 5.1 surround sound system, and upmixes them to create an immersive 7-channel speaker wireless surround sound experience with an impressive sense of height in the soundscape. The result is enveloping sound with convincing realism no matter what you watch with this TV soundbar. But it’s not just the sound quality that you’ll notice with this Dolby Atmos soundbar. Material quality. Construction. Finishes. Controls. Every detail was obsessed over to produce a Bose premium soundbar that looks as beautiful as it sounds. And with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant built in, you can create a connected home theater system. This Bluetooth soundbar helps you control all your entertainment, manage your day, and get information — using just your voice.

This sound bar has great sound. Bose sound quality is one of the best and this lives up to its reputation. Fills the room really well. App connects to soundbar allowing easy connectivity to music apps and selecting input. Will be able to connect to satellite rear speakers and a subwoofer. Looking forward to this becoming available and will rival any surround sound system out there. Setup was a bit complex and I’m still trying to get this to be controlled by my TV volume like my much less expensive sound bar did. I spent over an hour trying to get this configured but am confident it eventually will connect.

Do these come with extra inserts? I love the cone type insert that seems to fit my ears better. They were on the old wired beats by Dre and then the pair that went around you neck and were magnetic.
they come with different size inserts

Is the tablet portion of the laptop detachable like a 2 in 1? or is it attached like a normal laptop?
It doesn't detach but it pivots differently. It's not flimsy and it swings from the center. Hard to expaling but it gives you some really different setting versus the ones that just swing at the hinge.

Does this Wemo WiFi smart plug-outdoor, connect to a mesh WiFi system. I have some Wemo smart mini plugs thatonly connect to 2 ghz routers. The Mesh system I have doesn’t distinguish between 2 and 5 ghz bands, so the Wemo mini plugs do not connect my wifi
I have mine on a mesh system but that doesn't mean it will work on yours. It depends on the brand. While I cant see it not working, I can't account for every type of router.

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?
It is not a GFI outlet. Technically, outlets outside should be GFI by code negating the need for this to be GFI. You cannot control the outlets independent of each other.. Both are either on or off and controlled together as a pair. .
