Great wha to make Tasty Food Healthier
on June 27, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
Is really easy to use. Makes great tasting fried food with little to no oil depending on what you are making. I can go on and on about what you can do with this. The only reason I gave it four stars is the size. I ordered it online and was surprised at how big it is. Fed EX actually scheduled a freight delivery. It does not fit under my kitchen cabinets but will fit under a large cabinet like the sink. I realize if they made it smaller it would limit the types and quantity of food you can make but it is large.

Does the job has some quirks
on May 30, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
This is my second powerbot. For the money, you get ore features. WIFI lets you control from an app. You can schedule it to run daily. Fairly quiet when operating. It is quirky, gets stuck in random places and i frequently find it disables somewhere in my house. It comes with a magnetic strip to avoid other rooms but I would not want a magnet running across my floor or carpet. My last one had the drum plate break but it was fairly inexpensive to get parts. I appreciate Samsung does not gouge you when repairing. This also comes with a remote. For the money it's good but I am not in love with it!.

Tap on NFC-compatible Bluetooth devices to connect and go with these Sony wireless headphones. Their noise-cancelling technology keeps you focused on your music, while their Ambient Sound Mode mixes in voices and other external sounds you need to hear. Sweat and splashes are not a problem for these water-resistant IPX4-rated Sony wireless headphones.

My wife always complains about headphones falling out when working out or running. These headphones have solved the problem. They come with multiple size ear pieces so you get the perfect fit. Easy to pair, great sound, what else is there to say. Very happy with this product!

Great TV
on May 16, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I really like this TV and there are so many great features. The remote offers a voice activation, setup is easy and it guides you through it well. It will control your cable box however getting it to sync was not as simple as I would like. Picture quality is outstanding. It offers blue tooth which is great for headphones or other speakers. Not too heavy and standard mount to wall. Only thing I don't like is it uses it's own guide instead of the cable box guide. it is not as fluid and reverts back to the smallest channel. This is small and would recommend this TV. It has more bells and whistles than most.

For Hard Wood Floors
on April 19, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I rated this 3 stars becasue of the documentation. In the description, it states it can be used for a variety of surfaces. The manual states for sealed hardwood surfaces. I have tile and am unsure if it can be used for it. I would recommend to a friend if they had hardwood.

Good sound bar,
on April 19, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
The sound on this bar is really good. When connected to TV, the some TV's have the ability to take over by powering it on and off with the set and responding to volume control. If I were to rate this on set up, I would give it one or two stars. I had to call tech support to connect to wifi. That is my only complaint but it is a big one. Ithas the ability to add wireless rear speakers but no info is provided in documentation. The documentation issue almost made me give it 3 stars but the overall quality of this product is 5 stars so I was kind and gave it a four star rating. Customer service is there if you need it.

Great Tooth Brush
on April 11, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I replaced a Sonicare tooth brush with this one. I was not sure this one would be worth the money but I can say it brushes much better than previous models. This is the Cadillac of toothburshes. It has everything. It syncs with an app and lets you know how you are brushing I was surprised at the feedback and it certainly refined my brushing. It has several modes from cleaning to whitening, to gum care, to tongue cleaning. Charging is say with the included glass or stand. The travel case has a usb connection to charge on the go. I really like that. If I could dock a half a star i would for the following reasons: Set up was not hard but the directions were not clear either. This item is pricey as well as the attachments. I give it five stars becasue of the included case, different brushes and tongue cleaner. Most others don't include them. Overall the brushing exceeded my expectations and this is a quality product.

Really like Sonicare
on March 21, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I really like Sonicare. The toothbrush is easy to us, and feels like a real toothbrush. Other brands are not as comfortable or work as well. I like the charging base which is easy to keep clean. Takes up minimal space and does a great job brushing. My kids want new ones and it will be Sonicare as well.

Meet the secure, tamper-proof smart lock from Nest and Yale. It’s keyless, so you can lock and unlock the door from anywhere with the Nest app.[1] Give people you trust a passcode instead of a key, and get alerts when they come and go. And lock the door with a tap. If you forget, the Nest x Yale Lock even reminds you.

Really like this lock
on March 21, 2018
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I wanted a key less lock to use in the event of a power failure when the garage door would not work. This lock became the primary and we no longer use the garage door. I replaced another brand that I had trouble with. Mostly, it offered no adjustment for the deadbolt and you had to pull on the door to lock it or the lock would interfere with the plate. This lock is so different for many reasons. Install was very easy. It allowed me more flexibility when installing the plate which eliminated interference with the dead bolt when locking. The lock talks to you and guided me through setting up an initial password. The app was easy to set up. The lock and Bluetooth device had bar codes that could be scanned eliminating any configuration. This lock can detect when you leave and automatically lock. you can unlock it with an app and you can have it automatically lock after a 1 or 5 minutes. The keypad can be disabled as well which is nice when on vacation. You can set up new users by the app, limit their access, and have it expire at a set time. It does not have the ability to operate with a key. Not the end of the world for me. I wish you could customize the time on the auto lock.Only options are 1 or 5 minutes. I hope this changes with future updates but that is my only criticism. I don't give many things five stars but this certainly is.

Poor Directions
on December 16, 2017
Posted by: ammcb
from Wesley Chapel, FL
I attempted to set these light bulbs up. The directions are vague. They basically tell you to put them in a socket and download an app. They direct you to a web site for additional help which provided no directions. When I open the app, it tells me it can't find a hub. Hub? Do I need to buy a hub? The directions don't clarify the answer. After extensively searching, I was able to see in very small print on the box that a bridge is required or a special light switch. This should be more clear.

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. .

Upgrade your movie experiences with this 2.0-channel LG sound bar speaker kit. It produces 140W of power to blare your favorite song or movie, and it's wireless-enabled to eliminate the need for cables for a clean, uncluttered look.
 

Can I use existing speakers wires in my walls and connect via junction box to the the wires in the LG box to power them?

If I understand you correct, yes. You need to connect wires from the black box to each of the two speakers. It shouldn't matter what wire you use. The black box wirelessly syncs with the power bar so it can be on the other side of the room.
