Doesn't play well with others
on May 19, 2019
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
Lets start with the good.
*easy setup- up and running in less than 10 mins
*easy to use app- Not much to the app it's clean and simple, You can see a live view and watch activity's that it recorded
very easily
*no monthly subscription cost, This is a big plus
*good video and sound- Default video setting is 720p but easy to change. Two chatting worked good.
Now on to my dislikes.
The physical doorbell itself feels lite and cheap
Doesn't play well this others as in I have amazon units, and google ones, samsung family hub and neither of them can you see a live video of the door bell with. So if someones at the door I can't just look at my refrigerator screen or the other units sitting out around the house to see who's there. Have to use a phone or table. It only came with one skin. Unlike the other one I have that came with 3 colors to pick from.
The motion detection is poor even set at the highest setting.
In the end this is in the same price range as other with not as many options. But dose work

So much more than just a light
on March 29, 2019
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
This light is packed full of features that any techy would love.
Unboxing you will find it’s easy to assemble and has high build quality parts. I already had the Dyson app so set up was a breeze. The light dose look best at a desk but I liked it so much it’s on my night stand next to my bed. Easy to use controls on top of the unit. Color temperature from warn to cool. Brightness level and a power button. On the bottom side you will find three more features. The first button will automatically change the light level and brightness throughout the day according to your location. Than you have a Motion detector that will turn the light on when is sees motion. I liked this one when it was on my desk. Just walking in to the room and the light would come on. And the last as an auto button this will adjust to background light.
Down towards the base You will find a USB-C charging port. Which comes in handy on my night stand for charging my phone over night.
You can fully Control the light from the Dyson app which is also packed full of features and settings. This has been a fun light to play with.

Great Speaker
on March 24, 2019
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
For the size of this speaker it fills any room I try it in with high quality sound. Has a good mix of bass and highs. And the build quality feels high end. On the top of the unit you will find three easy to use knobs Volume, Bass, Treble. Along with three buttons, The first one is a source to jump between Bluetooth/Auxiliary/Wi-Fi. Then you have a play/pause and lastly a mute button for the microphone.
Alexa does have a small delay when interacting with her. And you can not use all of her features with this third party speaker. So I took one star for that.
But as for the speaker it self I love the looks and sound.

Great Espressos start here
on January 29, 2019
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
The first thing I noticed when taking this machine out of the box was the build quality. The parts are sturdy and have a good amount of weight to them. Looks and feel like a commercial grade espresso maker. After getting every thing out of the box and washed. It was time to try and make my first espresso. The manual has good step by step instruction for this process and after making one or two you shouldn't need the manual any more. The steam wand is an art form and takes a little bit to get use to. It also has a warming pad on top for your cups. I find that it heats up very fast 45 seconds or less when first turned on. I did read one review about it over heating after making 4 cups. So I tried to re-create this problem with not luck. I made 10 double shots back to back with no issues at all.

High quality head set.
on December 10, 2018
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
This is a very well built head set. Even the packaging feels high end.
I love the FrostCap technology it really dose make a big difference. I've had to take my other sets off after long use and getting sweaty. But not with these. They feel super cold when you first put them on but that dose go away and they just keep you at a comfortable temperature. In less your ear is hitting the inner cooling unit then its very cold all the time. But my ears fit well in this unit not touching any thing.
The sound is crisp and clean when gaming. And with the virtual 7.1 surround sound it gives you that edge over the enemy.
I did find the bass lacking when listening to audio. But come on these are for gaming and they do that great!!
They have a sweet app you can download. OMEN command center. Giving you access to change the light color on both left and right ear pieces to any color in the rainbow and more. Also if you find the the FrostCap is cooling to much for your liking you can turn it down in this app or off completely if you wish.
They are a bit heavy weighing in at 1 pound. That's twice as much as my other gaming headset. But these are still my go to set now when gaming.

Very powerful PC!!!
on December 5, 2018
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
If you have made it this far I'm sure you know all or most of the specs for this unit HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop. I will just touch on some of the key ones I find most useful.
First is the 128GB SSD for faster boot times and a 1TB hard drive for all your storage needs. Comes with Windows 10 and all of it's features.
The graphics card is an AMD Radeon RX580 and when paired with an HP gaming monitor with FreeSync really shines. Great for multitasking on triple monitors. It has 3 display ports and one HMDI. Making it very easy to set up more than one monitior.
On the front of this rather small case only standing 13 inch's high you will find a DVD/CD drive that reads and writes DVD+R/RW,DVD-R/RW and CD R-RW along with two usb-a ports, one usb-c port and a media card reader.
It comes with 8GB of memory (RAM) but dose have an open slot if you wish to add on.
On to the game play.
I found playing Fortnite,Forza Horizon 4, & Battlefield to run very smooth with no lag. With fps from 60 to 120. I was very happy with this and I think you will be too.
This is a good and powerful gaming PC that can be used for both work and play.

Smooth gaming
on December 2, 2018
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
Thanks to a 144Hz refresh rate and a 1ms response time. You will experience very smooth stutter free gameplay.
With FHD 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz, freesync when paired with a AMD radeon graphics card.
I had seen fps of up to 120 when playing games at max settings.
It has 5 downward faceing buttons for on screen controls and power. I found the controls easy to navigate.
The screen it self looks great with a micro-edge on both sides and top and the bottom edge is only about 3/4 of an inch.
One neat feature is the precise height adjustment base this monitor has. You can easly move the screen up or down with one hand to what ever position is most comfortable to you.
You can also pivot the whole screen from landscape to portrait. Or if you wish not to use the included stand you can use a VESA mount 100mm sold separately.
It also has two video out ports one HDMI and one display port.
Making it easy for me to use with my gaming computer and my MacBook Pro
Over all this is a great mid level gaming monitor. And I feel most will be happy with it.

Best bang for your buck.
on November 25, 2018
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
I've been a fan/user of the robotic vacuums since the start. And man have they came a long way. And now with multiple companies making them, they are becoming very affordable. And I feel the Shark is the best bang for your buck.
Setup is very easy. I was able to link the Shark Ion to both google home and amazon Alexa. Giving me the ability to use voice commands. Simple stuff like start vacuuming or return to dock.
I found the Shark app at the apple store and on google play. I tested it out on both an Iphone and a Google Pixel. The app is straightforward and easy to use. After the initial setup when I open the app it ask what vacuum I would like to control. You can name your different robots( i.e Living room, Master bedroom,Front hall).
Then you can pick 3 different cleaning modes Quiet,Normal or Max. After that its just three commands
1. Clean. This starts your vacuum,
2. Dock. This will return your vacuum to the charger.
3. Find. This one is very helpful for when your vacuum finds that missing sock under your bed or a cord. You do have to make your home robot friendly. And by that I mean you have to pick up before he can run. He gets stuck on smaller stuff little toys,socks,cords. I went as far as raising my couches with longer legs so my shark can go under them to clean. And when I buy a new piece of furniture I always look to see if shark can or can not go under it. Same thing with rugs high pile rugs and shag carpet tend to be a trap for all by vacuums. This Shark Ion does the best at not getting stuck and making it back to the dock. With the help of included boundary strips. I have mine under rugs,mats and doorways that I don't want shark to clean or try and clean. The shark won't drive over the boundary strip making off limits areas.
I love the new XL bin. I have attached a photo so you can see the size difference. The bigger bin means it can go a day or two longer before you have to empty it.
And as if the Shark vacuum was't enough with this model you get a cordless handheld vacuum. That is very powerful. Good for fast cleaning or things shark may have missed. It comes with attachments also. Both vacuums charge on the same dock and I wish it had a place to store the attachments. I find my self using the handheld with out any of the attachments and it works just fine that way.
If your in the market for a robotic vacuum you can't go wrong here.
Key points.
Battery life. about and hour or more of cleaning time
Powerful
Included boundary strips
Has the highest return rate of making it back to the dock of all my vacuums.
Cordless handheld
Easy to use app
Works with both Google Home and Amazon Alexa

Powerful 2 in 1 laptop
on November 17, 2018
Posted by: JustCuz
from New Orleans,LA
This is a powerful 2 in 1 laptop. Packed full of features.
I think HP was listening to it's customers on this one with some nice updates to an already great machine.
First thing that surprised me was this machine never got hot or even warm on my lap. And the build quality is outstanding, every component just feels solid and sturdy. It has a full keyboard with number pad and touch pad. And it has a backlit keyboard with two brightness levels. You will also find an HDIM port along with an usb port and a usb-c port. I find the HDMI very handy for use with a second monitor when I'm at my desk. The touchscreen is very responsive with both your finger or the supplied stylus pen. It's not the rechargeable pen, it takes an AAA battery, but also comes with the needed battery. This screen is nice and big . Good for watching Netflix's. With good battery life also. I've gone over 8 hours with out needing a charge. And when it dose need one you will find that it charges quickly. I do find it a little awkward to use it as a tablet. It's just a little too big for me that way. Has no problem multitasking with the Intel Core i7 @ 1.80GHz and 16GB total memory.
All in all I feel this unit can handle and surpass the needs of most users. I am very happy with this laptop.

Does the Phillips AirFryer 9621/96 have a stainless steel basket?

From Philips web page " The removable nonstick coating drawer and food basket are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning"
I do not believe this is stainless steel, if it were it would be mentioned more than once I'm sure . But it is non-stick and was easy to clean.
