Great entertainment

The movie was well produced and a good representation of the genre of comic inspired action films. The video quality is quite good, and the 3-D was not overworked, but played well into the overall visual effects of the movie.

Impressive performance

Verified Purchase:Yes
This allergy season has already been kicking me hard, and I had purchased a Winix cabinet HEPA filtered air cleaner last year, but it clearly wasn't up to the task.
Pros:
Quiet: The Noise level on sleep setting really is just at whisper level. Even on the highest setting it is about half the noise level of my Winix.
Filter indicator: it has a display that shows the filter condition BEFORE It needs to be replaced or cleaned. This is a sore subject for me, as the previous unit I had would just stop working with a "replace filter" light. This is much better thought out.
Effective for allergens: This is working very effectively at removing the pollen, which is my primary concern.
Compact: The unit is heavy, but packs a lot of cleaning and very strong fans into a small cabinet. It is 1/3 the physical size of my Winix, but performs better on everything EXCEPT VOC's where the Winix unit does do a better job. Things like perfume or hairspray will linger longer with the Honeywell, but they DO go away.
Cons:
There are a lot of LEDS in this thing, all of which are really helpful for seeing at a glance what functions you've selected. That said; some people that require absolute darkness to sleep will find this a bit bright. It doesn't bother me, but I've seen reviews on the Winix air cleaner with fewer lights get pinged for too bright. YMMV.

This adapter is truly plug-n-play, and connecting to a projector for a conference went without a hitch.
Good value for the functionality.

The USB 3.0 4-Port Mini Hub allows for up to four USB 3.0 devices to be connected simultaneously at a transmission speed of 5Gbps, while still providing connectivity and support for the older USB 2.0 (480Mb/s) and 1.1 (12Mb/s) devices. It works with high-bandwidth Super Speed USB 3.0 devices, such as webcams, flash drives, video surveillance cameras, digital video cameras, multi-channel audio and more. In addition, it supports fast charging for smart phone, tablets, and iPad.

Well built hub

Posted by: Rickm1122

Verified Purchase:Yes
This little hub really surprised me with the quality and finish of the device! Most USB hubs are almost assured to be entirely plastic affairs, but this one has a brushed anodized aluminum case. Nice!
The pass through on USB 3.0 power works well, but it also comes with a power wall-wart that is amply rated for those higher powered devices that power off the port, like my Apple SuperDrive.
Quite pleased as it is supported on both Windows 8 and Mac OSX Yosemite (I use both on this machine, so dual compatibility was really important).

Good & large storage solution

Verified Purchase:Yes
So far this has been a good performer and was very easy to setup.
Initial quality is good, the unit is very quiet in operation, and data transfer speeds are what you'd expect from a USB 3.0 drive.
The true test of any stand-alone disc drive is how long it lasts, and how reliable it is over the life of the drive. I will update this review as I get more mileage on this one. I had been using Seagate pro series, but after a serial string of early mortalities with them, I've decided to give WD a try.

Really great protection

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to provide a good travel cover for my iPad air, and I've ended up using it as an everyday carry cover.
The neoprene cover is really lightweight, but thick enough to provide good bump resistance, although it probably wouldn't save you in a on-edge drop.
The zipper is really high quality, the seams are well reinforced, and the second pocket is large enough for my charger and the long AC cable.
I am very satisfied with this cover!

I replaced a Logitech Anywhere MX with the performance mouse after 3 years of great service from the mouse. I am very pleased with the way that this mouse performs. The rechargeable feature is very nice, and the charges last quite a while. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone!

Great vacuum for the price!

Bought this as I was cleaning up my office, where we had previously been using another brand vacuum for 3 years. Somehow the other vacuum got packed and this was, in my mind, only temporary. Ha! This thing rocks! I pulled up dirt from carpet sections that were hit the day before by our other vacuum, looked like they hadn't been cleaned in months. I must tell you that the other unit is not bag-less like this one, but bags were changed frequently. So now it is our old vacuum in the storage, and the Hoover in the new office!
What's great about it: Plenty of accessories for every cleaning task, really pulls up the dirt.
What's not so great: It might have been nice in a different color, but it's growing on me :-)

Projector compatible

need to buy a projector compatible with Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 PLUS (for power-point presentations)
The software (iProjection) from Epson will allow you to wirelessly show downloaded documents on this projector, however not directly from the PowerPoint app. PowerPoint presentations can be printed to PDF, downloaded using the iProjection app and shown wirelessly.

If you are ok with using the Samsung 30-pin to HDMI connector, all functions are available, including screen mirroring, video, and integrated sound (not available wirelessly).

Hope this helps!

Rid the air in your home of dust, dander, pollen and more with this air purifier equipped with a washable filter for consistent and thorough results.
 

This air filter clean the salt in the air ? the saltpeter ?

I want some solution against saltpeter and corrosion on eletronic equipaments
Well, that's a complicated question.

First answer. The filter will indeed capture airborne salt particles in the main filter, so one valid answer is yes, if the particles are airborne, this will capture them up to the point that the filter, itself an electronic device, becomes compromised by the salt.

The second answer is, maybe. If you have that kind of salt air issues, and aren't living on the bonneville salt flats, chances are you are next to an ocean or sea. This means that MOST of the salt will be condensing on the surfaces and not remaining airborne long enough to filter out. Then the second half of the first answer applies: until the salt ultimately compromises the electronics in the filter.

So, a short term solution is possible, but the long term fix in that kind of really harsh environment is a whole-house, positive pressure system with a water scrubber is really the only thing that will truly desalt your air to the point that it won't destroy the electronics.

what is the different between the pre filter and the one is inside the honeywell come in the box,which one is washeable

The pre-filter is an activated carbon impregnated foam filter. It's primary purpose is to assist in filtering odors, but it also catches pet hair, lint, and bigger particulates. This filter will fall apart if you attempt to wash it.

The washable internal filter (they are both accessed via the removable back panel) is an electrostatic filter designed to capture smaller particles of things like dander and pollen.

Just a tip: if you replace the pre-filter, make certain that it is pressed back under the retaining tabs on the rear grille. If you don't, it will make replacing the cover impossible as there is no excess room.
