I purchased this for my 80+ year-old mother so she could see the endless stream of photos she gets from family members. Previously we had printed the photos, so a digital photo frame made sense for her. The frame works as advertised, it displays photos in various modes [sequential, random, with a date/time display or photo only], and is controlled by a tiny remote not much bigger than a matchbook. It will start the display just by turning it on, and will go into the mode that you have set up previously. Changing the mode requires using the menu system. Here are some general observations that may be useful to you: 1] The cord is quite short, about 3'; 2] The documentation provided is OK, but doesn't provide a lot of detail. It will get you started but you'll have to figure some things out by trial and error; 3] Transfer to internal memory in the frame requires a computer [cord is included]. My unit will not transfer from a USB or SD card. We display all of our photos from a USB flash memory drive that we leave permanently in the frame; 4] The frame has no internal battery, so if you unplug it all the defaults you have set [including date and time] must be reset; 5] The frame will not recognize a memory device inserted after the frame is on, it must be off; 6] The random mode will repeat some photos before it shows others, which is somewhat annoying. Seems like sloppy work, frankly.
When you receive the frame, place it in the desired location, plug it in, use the menu system to do the initial setup, and then turn it off. Insert a memory device with photos into the frame and it will power on automatically and start displaying photos. The menu also allows you to automatically start/shut off the display at prescribed times [start at 8AM, shut off 10PM].

Keep your fresh and frozen foods organized in this Samsung French door refrigerator that features a 21.8 cu. ft. capacity, 6 gallon-size door bins and 2 humidity-controlled crispers to provide plenty of storage space.

We replaced all three major appliances over Labor Day weekend. We had a bit of a problem selecting a refrigerator because our slot for the fridge is somewhat small, and couldn't be easily modified. We were a little nervous about having enough space, but it has worked out quite well. I love the pull-out freezer drawer, it's much easier to store things. The fridge works quite efficiently and the LED lighting is beautiful. We miss having an ice-crusher but we consciously chose not to have one because it's one more thing to malfunction. We did have an issue with our icemaker; it made ice for a week and then stopped altogether. We made a service call to Samsung and a week later it was replaced. It works perfectly now. We're very pleased.
