Deep carpet cleaner
on September 25, 2023
Posted by: Tony90703
I bought this for an upstairs kitchen that the carpet has suffered from far too many spills
I could have paid to have it professionally done, but that is a 1-time use, and I am spill prone
There are a few brands on the market, but my satisfaction with the Shark line drove me towards their product
Opening the box, you quickly realize that this is not your moms vacuum cleaner. There are all kinds of attachments to serve any purpose
Follow the inclosed instructions, and there will be a place and purpose for everything
Included in the box are also 2 bottles of what I assume is the most common carpet cleaners - one is labeled Oxy, while the other says Deep Clean. Read the manual (one of the few times I did not just try to figure it out) to use the best product for the type of stain or treatment you are trying to tackle
So how did it work? Just as expected for all Shark products, very well
No this not going to be what you would call a quiet cleaner and your pets will not be thanking you, but it is very bearable
Stains that have been set for months/years disappeared with little effort. There was also not the obnoxious chemical smell afterwards
My next stop will be buying more of the solutions and hitting every stain in teh house
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product
on September 25, 2023
Posted by: Tony90703
I purchased these for my daughter to place around her house
I trusted the brand, and well, the price was too good to pass up
Packaging is simple enough to protect the product, and inside instructions walked me through the set-up process
Following the quick set up guide, the units (3) took a few hours to get a full charge. They were not drained when I got them, so it was a good start
Mounting with the tape that they supplied was simple, and I also used the supplied template to drill a few holes and anchor with the supplied screws
I will just say it now - no longer will be a location be determined by an available outlet. In addition, no tacking and hiding cords anymore. The cameras can be in the best location and be either hidden from view to capture everything, or up front to deter any issues
Since I am on the iOS format, the app was quickly found on the app store and downloaded. The QR link made it error proof
Connecting the cameras to my account was quick and easy, and the results exceeded my expectations
Clear views and a simple interface. Also, 2k versus 4k is fine and will not throttle your bandwidth as much
I would recommend this product to anyone

Powerhouse
on June 14, 2023
Posted by: Tony90703
Great little device
Picked this up to power my iPhone, iPad and other personal electronic devices in my car.
While charging pads are convenient, they are slow and tend to get pretty warm during the cycle.
A USB plug is not always convenient while I am on the go, it does offer much faster opportunity charges in the car.
My first use was the iPhone. I used one of the USB C ports and opportunity charged while on a short commute. The plug did exactly what it was supposed to do, and gave me a decent charge up in a short period of time.
Next up was the iPad. iPads are notoriously power hungry , so again I utilized the USB C and gained another decent opportunity charge in a 30 minute car commute
The last single device charge was an external / portable battery. This time I used the regular USB and was not disappointed. A substantially slower charge, but very much expected for a higher capacity external battery
The last was a test of all 3. I did not expect this to go perfectly, and the car’s electrical system was the limiting factor. It was slow and got pretty warm. I would not recommend
Overall, this is a great device with tons of functionality at a reasonable price

Perfect for our purpose
on May 23, 2023
Posted by: Tony90703
We could not be happier for this purchase
I bought this for my daughter who welcomed our first grandson to our family
Since the little guy has some allergies and we have 2 dogs living inside their home.
It had to be silent, convenient, and powerful enough for his nursery
We had this shipped to our home and the packaging was sufficient for normal express deliveries. Unpacking was simple, and set-up super easy
The functionality is what sold us on this one. We wanted quiet for when he is sleeping and this one is near silent. Just some “white noise” from the air movement. Everything that they claim that is does for a small room is true. The air just feels cleaner as it filters out the allergens while we are home
To save money and electricity, we set this up to shut off when we leave and turn on when we return. The process was simple with the app and it gives us time to clean the air before a nap or bedtime
The one feature that surprised us that it had and ranks up their in value is the ability to know when to order a new filter. No more opening (or forgetting) to gauge if it is time for a change

Great printer
on May 12, 2023
Posted by: Tony90703
I am very satisfied with this printer -
Ordered on-line, and we did have a problem with the first shipment. Unfortunately, HP shipped in the retail box, and the carrier miss delivered. It was clear what was in the box, so I never did get it. Once I notified HP, they immediately sent a replacement which arrived quickly
Unboxing was super simple, with all of the parts secured for transportation. No damage was incurred. Removing the wrap was simple by hand, and the pieces were clearly marked
Now is where is gets super easy. Scanned the 3D barcode and loaded the HP Smart app to walk me through the set-up. Since this is my second one, all I had to do was hit "+" to add a new printer
From there, the app walked me through step-by-step to get it running and connected to the internet
What I really love about this printer is the connection via HP+ where it communicates with HP and sends toner levels and pages printed on a regular basis. Once I hit a certain point, toner is mailed to me and I can print uninterrupted and never have to make an emergency trip to the electronics store. All this at a couple of bucks a month charged to my credit card. This is so much easier then pulling a toner and matching it up at the store. Let alone the small monthly charge versus a large one-time payment
Great printer, but awesome convenience

Quality build
on August 28, 2022
Posted by: Tony90703
Firgidaire makes makes quality products, and this is no exception
I chose this one for an island sink, that rarely sees food waste, and does not require a higher horsepower motor
The price was spot on for this application, and Best Buy delivered on-time
Since I am not the best at plumbing, I called our favorite local plumbing company and schedule the install
While the old (also burnt out motor) one took some creative work to get it out (rusted bolts), it came out by a professional smoothly.
The new one popped right in and fired up without any issue.
Most of what I could talk about would be attributed to the installed - plumbing company, the unit performed just as we wanted
Fittings that were supplied were leak proof, the disposal chewed through anything that we threw at it (again, this will be a low use unit), and the overall volume is fairly low compared to our main garbage disposal.
Yes, I understand that each generation of appliances become more energy efficient, and quieter, but this one was a noticeable improvement
Of course I would go back to this one should the main sink disposal ever needs to be replaced

Amazing
on August 3, 2022
Posted by: Tony90703
Baby monitors have come a long way in the past years
Gen 1 were basically a walkie-talkie that gave notification of a crying baby
Gen 2 introduced a video feed to a dedicated monitor where you could look in the room to see what is going on
Gen 3 took the best of gen 1 & 2 and put it onto your phone and/or tablet
I see this as the evolution to gen 4 where sound, sight is still available on a mobile device, but it adds activity monitoring. Think of it as a baby monitor meets a fitness tracker.
You get the usual audio and visual feeds, but also sleep, heart rate, movement and wakings. Added to that, room conditions like temp and humidity are also reported
Truly game changing technology
The product itself is not inexpensive, but the build is not cheap. Unboxing shows that the fit & finish is quality and the feel is pleasant
The setup is also top notch. If you can connect a set of Bluetooth speakers or headset, you can do the same here. Unboxing and setup took just a few minutes
The user interface is simple and intuitive and makes it easy to begin working this into the sleep or nap routine
After a few cycles, you get the hang of it and we look forward to reviewing the history once we establish more days
For your most precious family member, this will become necessary

Sound is on the heavy side (lots of bass) and noise canceling is on par with the rest

Tried your reset
June 29, 2017
Still got the line on the screen
I know that you can not make a perfect product every time, but I have owned six (6) Sony XBRs over 25 years and never had an issue. I WAS a loyal and faithful TV, MP3, Vaio, etc. consumer
Sony is sending me a new one (with my credit card on file), but I will be required to pay (again) for someone to take the old (defective one) down, and replace it with the new one
I will be out another $100 (or more) because of your defect. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE
Your problems/defects should not be costing me more money
There was a time when we did not have options. If we wanted a high end TV, Sony was all that there was
Now there is LG, and Samsung that are cheaper and more feature rich. I will find out how they treat their customers, since this replacement, I will not be buying Sony again

Who’s in the garden? Are the kids doing their homework yet? Nest Cam is wire-free, so it goes almost anywhere, outside or in. It knows the difference between people, animals, and vehicles, so you can get the alerts that are important to you. Listen and speak through the camera right from the Google Home app. Check in anytime with 24/7 live view.* If you miss a notification, you can always go back and see what happened with 3 hours of free event video history.* And it’s easy to install yourself – no outlet or wires required. Nest Camera Battery requires the Google Home app and a Google Account – it’s not compatible with the Nest app or the home.nest.com site. *** Stand and cable sold separately
 

Nest! Please! Why are you so stubborn? Existing owners of your products (cameras, thermostats, protects, doorbells) want a single screen like we have in the nest app, where we can see ALL of our Nest products as soon as we open the app. We implore you!

I agree

Spoke to Google and the new products are no longer compatible with the Nest app

I personally like the tiles to view them all and scroll

This is a game changer, and will change my decision to continue with Nest/Google
