Arrived promptly, fits online description perfectly. I purchased the item based on price/capacity to be used for backing up my raw format photos since they consume memory quickly. If you're looking for something tiny this is for you. It fits snugly in the USB port and can be a bit challenging to remove.

This movie arrived within a few days after I had purchased on sale as deal of the day. I had seen the plastic case version being sold at the same price but I prefer the steel case because they generally don"t fall apart as quickly as plastic. I would likely have given 5 stars if it hadn't been dented upon arrival. The packaging was pristine so I can only assume it was shipped in that condition. Movie functions fine however so didn't want to drive across town to exchange it.

Warm and Useful for working in low-light condition

Verified Purchase:Yes
This item was purchased as a gift for my son who has his own automotive repair shop. Although he has excellent overhead lighting it does little for working under vehicles on the lift and this saves him from having to step over or around his trouble light cord. His only complaint is the light positioning is not adjustable so he must move the cap around to focus on his work area. The cap keeps his head warm without causing him to sweat when he's working in 50-60 degree conditions. He now wants the orange one for hunting season.

I like to compile an assortment of music to play in my car while driving however our New Mexico heat is hard on CDs when kept in a vehicle so rather than damaging my original disks I copy my favorite songs onto these and then when they warp or start skipping I simply toss them out and burn new copies. On sale they were an economical choice for me.

Transferring videos to DVDs for children and grandchildren to preserve memories. On sale they made it easy to make plenty of copies for everyone. I prefer lightscribe but evidently they were unpopular and are difficult to find these days.

Chill out with the Holmes 20-inch box fan. Three speed settings ensure that you can adjust the airflow in your room to match your desired comfort level, and it has feet for maximum stability. Wrap the cord around the back so that you can take this Holmes 20-inch box fan anywhere quickly.

Good price for box fans

The dis-connectable power cord centered in the back of the fan is a huge inconvenience for those who simply want a fan that fits into a window because it sticks out in back and does not fit against a screen as did it's predecessor would with it's bottom surface mounted cord. Also the cord tends to vibrate itself loose on occasion. Had they not changed the cord I would have easily rated it a 5 out of 5 stars but in this instance new is definitely NOT improved.

Decent Skillet for the Price

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this on sale (Deal of the Day) as I occasionally missed mine after retiring them several years back. I kept looking but always talked myself out of a replacement due to storage, or "lack of" in my case. The price was right so even if I only used for summer dishes and stored it in the garage over winter I would feel like I got my money's worth. I would have given it a 5 if the lid had been vented but who likes soggy fried onion rings??? You have to tilt the lid partially off which lets grease escape and splatter so I only gave it a 4. Cleans up easily.

Will it work with mobile data instead of internet?
I do not have access to internet where I live, but I have an unlimited data plan on my phone (android). I also do not have mobile hotspot. However, I have a modem and a wifi router (again no internet). Will chromcast work for me? I will I be able to watch netflix or youtube on my phone, and mirror it to my TV?
4G seems to work whereas 3G not so much keeps buffering

Works with Amazon Prime?
Wondering if this apply's for Amazon Prime movies and more?
And I assume Chromecast only works with places your paying monthly subscriptions for example like the Hulu and Netflix ?

yes if using my laptop I can access both Netflix and Amazon Prime, my phone has issues related to data transfer and keeps buffering so I don't use it with a phone. My son however has Verizon 4G and it works fine with his phone.

does it come in a original cromecast package? or just in a shipping bag like used?
The chromecast USB comes in a box with cable and adapter, the only difference between it and new is the "refurbished" stickers on it.

Easily connect your projector, monitor or HDTV to other peripherals with this VGA cable that features 24K gold contacts for maximum signal transfer and corrosion resistance.
i want to connect a laptop to a sony smart tv that has net flix installed
Netflix allows you to register several devices to watch on, TV, laptop, Bluray players and even phones so if you want to watch on your laptop simply go to www.netflix.com and log on to your account using the same username, email and password. Hope this helps

I would like to purchase the Kenwood Kmix but it appears to have a weak motor 500w. Should I consider buying a different, stronger model?
500 watts should be plenty of power for general mixing as long as the motor has overload protection to prevent overheating during heavy mixing. If you intend to be using it for heavy cookie doughs or breadmaking I would go with no less than 550 and preferably 575. You do want to make sure it has overload protection in any case especially since it is an expensive mixer. I am not familiar with the Kmix but for the serious baker I would recommend you research Kitchenaid brand mixers in the US. I would buy a Kenwood sound system based on reputation over the years but kitchen appliances???? Not so much! If you are in the UK however you likely don't have that option. They seem comparably priced so one would likely conclude they are of similar quality construction. Hope this helps
