Great Strength Training System!!
on November 3, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
This work out equipment comes right on time as I am desiring to do some core training targeting certain areas with intense-focus. I am elated at the fact that the equipment can be used indoors with something as simple as a door frame.
Seemingly the material is durable as I have tried some strength training on my arms. My right hand is my dominant hand, but I have noticed as am getting older, I feel my overall arm weakening, but this is where this work out equipment comes in at –as I begin to strengthen those areas.
I am truly elated to use these wonderful training materials and see what results I can achieve from its usage!

An Awesome Video Conferencing Gadget!!
on November 1, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Let me open with, “I LOVE IT!” This is a super user-friendly gadget that is perfect for communicating with Facebook friends. I have a friend, who recently located to Michigan and I truly miss him, as such I chose him to receive this device in order for us to video conference. We video conferenced on Monday night as the unit arrived for me late evening and our experience was great as the video was clear in clarity, audio, and overall communications. I did not experience any drop communications, black outs, or bad audio. I truly enjoyed seeing him and communicating with him via video.
Setup of the unit was user-friendly as the device firstly did a firmware update that took approximately 15 minutes. Thereafter, I did not experience any problems when logging into my Facebook account and from there the device uploaded all of my pictures and contacts successfully.
There isn’t a lot of variety as the device has Pandora, Spotify and IHeart Radio, all of which I have accounts, despite such, I am pleased with the limited choices. The only app that is not working properly is the “Story Time” for children, for some odd reason, it sets up as if it’s going to play, but it just buffers and will not play. I am hoping a future firmware update will correct this. Also, I am hoping that some more fun apps will be added in the near future.
All in all, I am pleased with this device as it is doing what it’s supposed to do and that is video conference with Facebook friends impressively well!

Another Solid Performer from Logitech!!
on October 31, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
I am super excited to discover that Logitech, who continues to dominate the computer accessory market has come out with a keyboard that caters to Android and Chromebook users. I have an Android phone that I immediately synced to this keyboard and the process was instant as I was given a code to input and from there, I was texting away.
The big pluses in this keyboard are that it multi-functions with both Bluetooth and USB; the keys are pleasantly quiet; the longevity of battery life; its integration with Google Assistant search and launcher keys; and the phone tray, which is a big bonus for me as I will employ its usage on a regular basis. I text and E-mail frequently; however, I don’t talk on the phone much.
In summary, I am thrilled to add this keyboard to my Android phone and Chromebook as I know that it will serve me well for its multiple usages.

This is my first venture into Roccat as I am unfamiliar with their products. Firstly, the mouse is aesthetically beautiful as it gives interchangeable colors in blue, yellow, purple, red and green. The mouse feels good in hand as it is lightweight and comfortable. It also is precise as it is easy to maneuver and targets with much precision and accuracy. I especially like the fact that it is plug and play. Also, the size is great as it easily compares to Logitech 603 one of my daily drivers in feel and size.
This mouse is good for everyday computing as well as gaming. As such, if you are a gamer or everyday casual user, this mouse will meet your needs immensely!

A Gamer's Dream Keyboard!!!
on October 21, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
First off, I never knew I would enjoy clicky-clack on this magnitude! I love the response of the keys on this keyboard as they feel so natural to my hands and it types with so much accuracy and precision. In keyboards, I really need and want a numeric key pad; however, this unit does not have one and I can roll without it! That is how much I love this keyboard as I’ve made it my main driver.
When Logitech described this Keyboard as PRO, they were 100% accurate in every sense of the word as this keyboard has been robust and deliver in every category from connections, feel, and the light sync wave that waves across the keyboard with the array of beautiful colors is just breath-taking and makes a joyful typing and/or gaming experience.
While this is a wired keyboard, but I truly have not noticed it until I see the connection to the unit, but the overall performance and handling have trumped that for me as well.
This is my first mechanical keyboard. I have heard some great things about mechanical keyboards in so much how they afford gamers a great gaming experience and their precision with regards to accuracy and depth. Suffice to say, I am a believer who is FULLY convinced as this is by far the best keyboard, I have ever owned!!

A Peace of Mind and Protection!!
on October 20, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
As a person who lives alone, this camera is a welcomed addition to my home because securing the home front is of top priority to me. The installation of this unit is easy as a Phillips screw driver and drill are needed and from there, you’re good to go. As an Android user, I installed the app to my cell phone. I had my neighbor help me due to the placement of the device outdoors was high.
I truly like the clarity of the device as it provides a clear picture. Additionally, knowing that I am receiving continuous recording is indeed a welcomed asset along with peace of mind that my home is secure.
I highly recommend this unit as it is easy to install and have robust features in the securing of one’s home. Also, there aren’t any monitoring fees associated with this unit.

Cut down on cooking time with this Bella Pro air fryer oven dehydrator. Top and bottom heating elements ensure exceptional cooking results, while the 10.5-quart capacity holds plenty of food. This Bella Pro air fryer oven dehydrator features a touch-screen control panel for quick operation, two nonstick racks for crisping and one pan for baking convenience.
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
As a person who is trying to incorporate healthy eating into my daily routine, this Air Fryer is a welcomed addition to my kitchen. I was excited to venture into the digital effects of cooking. Thus far, it has not been bad as I love the fact that this unit has two racks which I put to great usage by cooking burger and fries. I was elated to discover that both burger and fries came out wonderful. The preset timers really do cook the food to perfection.
I am going to try a rotisserie chicken soon, I noticed by gauging the size of the unit, it would have to be a smaller chicken, but that is ok because I live alone and a smaller one would be better.
The appealing thing about this unit other than its aesthetics, is that you can monitor your food through the window as it cooks. I am truly excited about the addition of this unit to my kitchen as I am looking forward to exploring all of its wonderful capabilities.

A Fairly Decent Listening Experience!!
on October 13, 2019
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
As a person who LOVES the 80’s music era, I was elated to review this item! I can vividly recall when boom boxes were the “it” thing that everybody owned or knew someone who owned one. Upon unboxing this item, it kind of had a nostalgic retro look to it and a cheap look to it as well. The silver coating of paint looks like a cheap-shellacked finish in my opinion.
*In sincere anticipation of this unit’s performance, I copied my 300 plus songs from Dropbox to a flash drive in hopes of listening to my music which is a mixture of 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s music with the 80’s music being dominant because hands down, I feel that was the best era of music! The directions to play the music was pretty straight forward as I got connected without any problems after syncing my Bluetooth. However, while amidst playing of my songs, the Bluetooth would cut out. Firstly, I dismissed it as a mishap; however, it happened repeatedly during the playing of my songs via USB drive.
*Playing of the AM/FM radio was a great experience as the communications were clear and concise. I tuned into my favorite station, 96.5 FM which afforded me a great listening experience.
*I synced my cell phone to the Boom Box player via Bluetooth to listen to my 300 plus songs as well. However, it was a very disappointing experience as the music played rather faintly and quietly as there wasn’t any bass at all. After turning the volume up to maximum level, I still did not achieve a rich sound experience.
Overall, I am leaning towards a ‘mixed-bag’ experience with this device as it looks the part of a nostalgia-retro device; however, it falls short in performance categories that should be robust such as Bluetooth and bass.
I truly love the concept of this boom box as it affords a user several usage options such as Bluetooth capabilities, cassette tapes, AM/FM radio, Mp3, USB, and SD card. However, the speakers aren’t the best and the cutting out I experienced while listening to my songs via USB flash disk left a not so good taste in my mouth, but as aforementioned there are some strong points to this unit such as a great AM/FM experience which is one of the primary reasons I selected this device.

Upgrade your kitchen with this Mr. Coffee coffee maker. The 12-cup capacity lets you make coffee for a crowd, while the two-step Advanced Water Filtration System ensures quality output. This Mr. Coffee coffee maker features Brew Now and Brew Later options so you can make your drink immediately or program a future brewing cycle.
Posted by: ExcellentEducator
from Birmingham, AL
Initially, I was excited about this coffee maker due to the fact, my current coffee maker, while it makes a great cup of coffee, the warmer doesn’t do an effective job of keeping my coffee piping hot. I will confess that on a day to day basis, I use this inexpensive coffee maker because I live alone and don’t drink anymore than 2 cups a few times out of the week. Suffice to say, I selected this coffee maker in hopes that I would achieve a piping hot cup of coffee as the desire for a cup comes to mind. Unfortunately, this coffee maker while not expensive, but considerably more expensive than what I paid for the one I have did not achieve the desired outcome I was hoping for.
I followed all the steps as indicated in the enclosed booklet by washing the carafe lid and filter basket thoroughly and thereafter running a cleaning cycle. Next, I brewed a cup of cup that turned out to be flat in taste and mediocrely warm! Shortly thereafter, I decided to try another cup to see if maybe something went amiss; unfortunately, after adding more coffee for a stronger cup, I still received coffee that wasn’t good in taste along with mediocre warming!
Suffice to say, this coffee maker does not meet nor satisfy my discriminate taste buds as an avid coffee drinker. I am highly disappointed as I looked forward to using this brewer on a regular basis! In good faith, I cannot recommend this coffee maker as its performance has been dismal at best!

I needed a basic keyboard since the one on my lap top stopped working. It worked fine for a few weeks. Having a problem now, It types Caps without putting on the Cap key, It skips spaces. Then the next day It will be fine for awhile and do the same thing again. Only paid $12.99 for it and that is just about what it is worth. I have had it over a month and as I said it was great for about 2 weeks.

By Hpandme
It's my fault for not reading the fine print but I now realize that this desktop does not have a CD/DVD Rom Drive. This is important to me since I do play games on my computer. It's smaller than the picture looks...about the size of a gallon of milk and I just got it , so I don't have any comments yet on the performance. The keyboard is compact too, wish it was wireless. Otherwise, a great buy.

HP Pavilion Wave
November 16, 2016
I have the same desktop; however, it is with the i3 processor. Yes, it does come with a keyboard and mouse which are both paired. As a result, all one needs to do is plug and play. The desktop comes with several ports if a person desires to use an external CD/DVD player, the unit can accommodate the need by using one of the USB ports. I have an extra keyboard (which is bigger) and mouse that I use along with the included keyboard and mouse. So, if the included keyboard and mouse are not to your satisfaction, there are several USB ports that can be used to accommodate something else.
