They work well, just take some getting used to
on April 4, 2018

Having worked around heavy machinery for a number of years, there are some times that I have to look at peoples mouths to make sure that I understand them. These certainly helped, but the neck piece feels awkward. I think I'll probably get used to it. If you've used these sorts (with a piece around your collar) of headphones before, then I'd say they are well worth it. They cleaned up the sound for me.

Handy centralized protection - long initial setup
on March 18, 2018
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Fairmont, MN
After a sort of drawn out setup, the system seems to run well and provide good feedback on what is going on in the network. It isn't plug and play, which is fine for this sort of thing, but I use it with our Velop system and for some reason, it took easily 45 minutes to get it rolling.

A whole lot of sound in a small profile

This came charged out of the box and was far and away better than any prior BT speaker I have used. Not sure how I like the flashing color changing LEDS, but that can be turned off.

Comfortable and versatile athletic watch
on February 26, 2018
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Fairmont, MN
This is my first "smart" watch so I wasn't sure what to expect - I was pleasantly surprised with the watch.
The watch band is comfortable and the face is easy to read and work with. There are a huge number of functions available for tracking everything from your sleep to nearly any exercise that you can think of. The battery life so far has been quite good and I have not had to recharge after 10 days (still at 40%).
Connecting to my phone was simple and direct, the software update and app install was also quite simple.

I would say that visiting the SUUNTO website and reviewing the help files is a must. Like I said, there are a ton of functions you can use, which is great, but you navigate using only 5 buttons and the road to where you want to be is sometimes winding.
All said, I'd buy it again.

light-weight, secure fit, good sound
on February 26, 2018
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Fairmont, MN
The ear buds fit so well and are so light-weight that you could almost forget that they are in your ears. The only down side I found about the small size and light weight was that pressing the buttons to change volume, etc. could sometimes cause the ear-buds to push into my ears and be a little painful. With a little practice I learned to mostly avoid this.
The quality of sound is very good and the charging/storage container is convenient for travel and storage.

Light, comfortable, nice mid-range response
on January 17, 2018
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Fairmont, MN
These were fully charged out of the box, fit well over the ear without too much pressure, and sound great. Many headphones these days, IMO, tend to over emphasize bass at the expense of crisp midrange - these head phones have a very nice balance from bass to treble and clean midrange.
Functionality for phone use was as good as previous sets I have owned, calls were clear for both parties and the controls were easily accessed while on head.
All and all a nice pair of over the ear headphones/headset. Oh, almost forgot, the quality of the accessories such as charging cord, aux cord, and storage bags was also quite nice for the price range.

Prepare all your favorite dishes in this DeLonghi Livenza convection oven. Insulated construction helps maintain temperature, and the oven fan distributes hot air to facilitate fast and even cooking. This DeLonghi Livenza convection oven heats multiple dishes at one time in two specific heating areas with four adjustable rack positions that maximize space.

The oven is sleek and well designed. The presets have been spot on so far, pizza and cookies were easy and it's nice to work with an oven at counter height - our traditional oven is lower down and a pain to check on things. It fits well with our decor and kitchen setup and it's been fun to try the recipes in the manual.

Clean your carpets more efficiently with this Rogue robot vacuum. The intelligent mapping helps the device navigate quickly through your home, and it has a tri-clean system that agitates, brushes and uses suction to ensure a thorough cleaning. This Rogue robot vacuum returns to its base for recharging when the job is done.

Quieter than our upright and does a great job!

My wife had been eager to try out a robot vacuum and this certainly didn't disappoint us. The setup and use was straight forward, the app took a bit of getting used to, but no complaints after we got the hang of it.
Our furniture style is high enough above the floor that this little guy can scoot right underneath most everything that we have.
There is an option to create boundaries, we haven't needed to try that, but I expect that may be handy for some people.

We tried all three settings and basically, as you'd expect, as the cleaning level is increased, the battery drains more quickly and the vacuum gets louder - our upper floor is small enough that battery life hasn't been an issue even using the highest setting. On the low setting, I am able to take a nap without the noise bugging me.
I'd have to say that it is better than we expected and pretty cool to have around. Saves us time and trouble.

These earphones are very comfortable, the sound quality is better than I expected for the price. I am considering a second pair to keep in my gym bag.

Do the sides of the toaster get hot to the touch when in use??
Not that we noticed, but we only make 4 slices at breakfast and don't go for dark/burnt toast.
I expect if you like your toast dark and are making a lot of it, it may get a bit warm, fortunately, stainless tends to shed heat fairly quickly anyway.
