Typical for the Shark brand, another great product
We have an automated/scheduled Shark vacuum for upstairs, and when it was time to buy a new one for downstairs, we stuck with the same brand
1) Shark makes a features rich, quality product at a great price point
2) This vacuum works exceptionally well, is light weight, and has all of the features that we were looking for
3) Especially effective at picking up dog hair. We have a short haired breed with a dense thick coat and this vacuum pulls the hair out of the carpet and off of the hardwood floors
Highly recommend this model and the entire brand

I have been using different Jabra audio products, and this one is right up there with the best
Set-up is simple and easy
Comfort is great and they stay i your ears regardless of the activity
Overall it is the Jabra sound signature that sells it. With the added ANC, they work perfectly for plane travel and drown out the background noise without having to haul bulky over the ear models

Work from home accessory
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: Tony90703
from Dallas, TX
I use the Aftershokz when I run outdoors, so why not when I work indoors?
With the work from home alternative, I was using another brand that fit over the ears. After long conference calls, my ears would be hot and sweaty. They broke and I got these
Benefits
- work all day long on a single charge
- connection is seamless
- I can still hear the house and family and not totally isolated
- my ears are cool and comfortable at the end of the day
- you are not tethered by a cord
Downside
- be aware of the mute button (not on the headphones) and take them off if you are unsure if you are muted

Worth the money?
on October 16, 2020
Posted by: Tony90703
from Dallas, TX
First off, I love Bose products. Yea they are pricy, and they may not be the best sounding, but they do what they claim and they last
With the sleep headphones, that changed
Comfort
Top notch. You will not notice them while you sleep
Sound
Very clear sound and great noise canceling
App
This is where they fall down. The app is not intuitive and the UI is quirky. You also can only stream their sounds from the app and not add any of your own. These headphones are tethered to the Bose app and nothing else
While this works well for the purpose, but limits other functions
Like I said, I am not sure they are worth the money, since there are other options that are cheaper and offer more functionality

Crock-Pot 6-Quart Programmable Cook & Carry Slow Cooker is the perfect programmable slow cooker for those with a busy, on-the-go lifestyle. Its large capacity ensures that everyone gets enough to eat, and its portability makes it a great choice for travel. The secure-fitting lid and locking system create a tight seal between the stoneware and lid.

Feel relief aid anywhere, anytime with Compex® Ayre™ compression boots. Designed for therapists, coaches, elite and recreational athletes on-the-go, Ayre is a therapeutic product using intermittent pneumatic compression. When exercising, the body builds up lactic acid as a biproduct of muscle contraction. Ayre compression boots work to break up these small molecules and send stimulus to your nervous system. These compression boots are designed to help improve blood flow and circulation in the legs by mobilizing lactic acid, access fluids, and other toxins. Compex Ayre uses a dynamic pulsing compression up the limbs in waves for the duration of its use, which helps promote quick healing. Sit back, power up the boots, and enjoy your recovery for up to 60 minutes anywhere on a single charge.

Love Compex
on September 24, 2020
Posted by: Tony90703
from Dallas, TX
I have tried the other major brand, but due to my past experience with Compex, I bought these instead. They are also a fraction of the price
First off, the Velcro fasteners on the thighs give a superior compression. The unit also has independent battery packs, so you are not tied to a wall socket, however I would not recommend walking in them
Directions are simple and clear and they simply work!
Great job Compex and DJO (parent company who does medical braces)

Decent headphones
on September 3, 2020
Posted by: Tony90703
from Dallas, TX
First off, I am a huge fan of Sennheiser products. I have countless headphones from them
Sennheiser makes products all the way up to the high end, and these are closer to the middle
Price:
Definitely some of the least expensive from the brand
Comfort:
Extremely comfortable over the ear. Be forewarned that if you have large ears, they may not fit - I have med ears, and they are snug
Sound:
Definitely not premium, but pretty good
Set-up:
Simple and seamless, however the enclosed instructions were a little lacking. On-line versions are much better
Connection:
Works perfect with my Mac, but they do not have the pause function when removed. I actually like this better, since I often eat while watching a movie and they don't pause when I chew
Overall:
Nice headphones at a decent price point - not sure about white (I always get black), but we'll see how they wear

The Victorinox Small Connex Frequent is made by the same company that has made Swiss Army Knives since 1897. So, you can be that it covers all the bases -- functionality, versatility, quality, and ergonomics. This upright spinner bag’s exterior offers a modern, streamlined look and is made with strong Makrolon polycarbonate. The spacious internal compartment allows optimized packing and is expandable to increase the capacity. There are x-shaped compression straps and zippered divider walls and pockets to help organize. When you close the bag and send it off, it can stay secure: a recessed Travel Sentry Approved combination lock allows TSA officers to access your bag. Its dimensions are 9.1 x 13.8 x 21.7 inches. And, when empty, it weighs 6.7 pounds.

Awesome

Posted by: Tony90703
from Dallas, TX
I have been a user of the Swiss Army bags for many years. The features, value and durability are unsurpassed. So when they came out with a hard sided carryon, I just had to try it
First off the features have been taken up a level. Spinner wheels, built in lock and pass through battery are conveniences that are welcome. The build is solid and functionality is perfect for an airline carryon. Fits and slides into the overhead with little effort
I was concerned with the size (too small?) for more than a few days, but it is surprisingly large once you start packing.

Bought this on 4/30 for our new house, but installed it on 6/28 (just moved a few days ago)
Once installed, there is a full line of pixels bad. Vertical black line up the screen
Best Buy on-line will not help, so I have to deal with the store. They even gave me the Sony number to deal with them. Currently an extended hold with Geek Squad
Given Best Buys size, their customer service is now nonexistent
Sorry Best Buy - I just made my last purchase with you - you lost me as a customer

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
Sony - you have lost me as a customer

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

We have options now
