Thought it would be cool

I was wrong.
From the manual, it tells you to go to the site and activate.
The site says download one of these apps to activate.
The first app from the play store I attempted to download was $8.99. NEXT
Next app was $2.99. PASS
Finally found Digg, and it was free.
After a few minutes to activate and register I was able to see what the Cube was all about.
Roughly 30 seconds later I was done.
At best this is a novelty toy. There is some cool aspect, for about 30 seconds. After you have been annoyed trying to find an app worth trying that won't cost more cash, that 30 second is not worth it.
It is a cool concept, but poorly executed. The only reason I did not give 1 star, with a few decent apps, this could be a pretty decent toy that you might Digg out once every few months when you notice the dust it has collected.

Not Bad But Doubt They Will Last

Imagine taking a Nerf Football and strapping it to your face....that is what this feels like. After just a few times putting my G6 in the headset, it is showing a slight tear in the foam, kind of like a Nerf Football starts breaking down after a good rough game of football.
If you wear glasses, these are not for you. The fit is very snug and it does not feel designed for people with eye wear.
The straps are difficult to fine tune or just adjust in general.
The unit I got has a flaw in one lens, I have yet to get a good clear viewing. My Cardboard seems to have better optics.

Fantastic
on October 4, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
These headphones are fantastic. They are light and fit comfortably and securely. If you have worn any other twist in Bose headsets, this is the same design.
Sound is impressive, as you would expect from Bose.
Battery life is surprising. At 50% volume over two hours listening to XM app, I still had a reported 80% battery left.
The charging case is slightly bulky, but does a great job protecting and charging the headphones. The case is good for multiple charges to get you thru a full day or more. It also charges the headphones much faster than the advertised rate. I recharged from 80 to 100 in about 15 minutes while I ate lunch. 15 minutes will supposedly give you 45 minutes of playback. The case is advertised to give 10 hours of additional charge.
I can't say enough great things about these.
The app has a locate my headphones and also allows you to connect to multiple devices and to disconnect from other devices. Really well done application.
These are the first Bluetooth audio devices I have been able to pair with my tablet. Not an indictment on the other devices, just praising these little buggers.
I highly recommend. Wish I had more than 5 stars to give.

Grading on a curve
on September 27, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
I would like to give this a 3 1/2 star. I'll round up because it is a dependable and well built hand vac/spot cleaner.
The great way to describe this is a pet stain spray bottle attached to a hand vac. The basic concept of this is carpet spray, like any $4 bottle at the grocery that you vacuum up 5 minutes later..just like it says on the $4 bottles.
This does have a brush built in and there is a dirty water bladder. Just like a full sized carpet cleaner.
I may be oversimplifying this, it is a lot more than a hand held vacuum. Having it all together in one unit is great. With the $4 bottle you spray and blot. Walk away and just vacuum after it dries. This will suck the moisture out and pull up the stain before it sets in or dries.
I am torn on how to describe this. It seems like it should be more, but it does what it does so well.
I would definitely recommend to someone with kids or pets prone to accidents. Exactly who this was designed for.

Great Color
on September 26, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
I am fairly impressed with this all-in-one printer. I was looking for a second printer/scanner for the kids to use for school that allowed color printing. My current black and white laser just required markers to add color to the grey scale. The kids are a little too old to be coloring homework, so ...
Printing on photo paper is fantastic, almost as good as a professional print. Maybe, for me, a little better because I can control the color.
The scanner is your normal all in one variety. Pop in a sheet and scan it.
The software, where I take a star away, is not the most intuitive piece of code I have worked with. Hopefully this will be corrected with updates down the road.
I would HIGHLY recommend doing the firmware upgrades as soon as you get the unit out of the box. Initially my unit was popping errors every time I looked at it, the first firmware update corrected that issue.
All in all in one, this is a very nice sturdy inkjet with really great color reproduction.

Best Handheld/Stick I have Used
on September 26, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
It doesn't matter if the handheld/stick is corded or cordless, this vac is the best of the ones I have used. The fact it is cordless is all the more impressive.
The vac comes with two removable rechargeable batteries and a charging base. The batteries can be charged without the base. Battery life, since they are new batteries this is just the initial impressions, is fantastic. I have been able to go thru the house on a quick sweep (see what I did there?) using only one battery. I am pretty confident as the batteries wear in I will still have the juice to do a quick sweep of the entire house.
There are two vac settings on the unit, one for extended battery and one for major suckage. You also have brush control, on and off. The vac pulls the head along so it almost feels self propelled.
Weight is about perfectly balanced. Unlike some vacs that can not stand on their own without tipping, this one will stand upright and not tip easily. There is a flex point with button release that is handy for storage but doubles as easier access under tables and chairs.
There are a handful of attachment brushes that should get you through any handheld cleaning you can think of. One attachment is perfect for cleaning ceiling fans. A nice addition to the normal brush/wand assortment.
Once again, Shark has taken a bite out of the competition.
Puns that suck are now over.

Exactly What The Doctor Ordered
on September 13, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
My wife has had multiple surgeries for chronic back issues. With all the medical appointments, bills, doctors notes, etc. Trying to keep all these papers without losing them and organized is a chore. With this scanner I can scan in the paperwork and keep things organized without all the paper trail.
This scanner has been a real life saver, exactly what we needed it to be. We can now search for specific documents and days when needed for appointments or insurance requests from our provider.
This scanner allows up to 65 pages per minute scanned and also does duplex mode in a single pass. Not having to feed the documents thru two times makes the work of scanning so much easier. I have scanned in hundreds of documents already with another stack waiting. I can't imagine doing this with a flat bed scanner.
This is easily the most helpful technical item I have had in years. The build quality is top of the line. Epson has lived up to he quality I expect from them. Well done.

Surprised
on September 6, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
Honestly, I did not expect much from this cell booster. I have tried other brands, none of which handled the dead spots I had on the way to work. The best PRO i can give this... No more dead spots.
Honestly, I am amazed. Not just that I have service, but I have full bars. Only once have I seen it drop below 4 bars.
What more can be said other than it works?
A few things to consider, also why I did drop a star:
You have to mount the antenna away from other antennas. If you have satellite radio and a sun roof, there is no place to mount on the roof of your sedan.
The mount can pinch you really good, the springs are very strong. WATCH YOUR FINGERS!!! It is hard to use your phone with bandaged digits.
If I could, I would have given this 4 1/2 stars.

Great Sound, Bad App
on August 12, 2017
Posted by: dharr18
from Florida
All my issues with this bar can be fixed by fixing the app. The initial config from a LG phone, connecting a LG sound bar to a LG TV should be seamless. IT WAS NOT!
The instructions were bad, a few words of direction would have gone a long way. Even highlighting the name of the app would have been helpful.
The app will configure everything for you, but not let you know that it is configured. The sound will still not work. You need to jump over to the TV remote and the bar remote to finish the config...but don't expect to find that in the Picstructions. A picture may be worth a thousand words, but a few words would clarify the picture.
Anyhow, the app actually had everything configured, but I needed to go thru the LG TV menu and do a test of the sound before it worked.
DO NOT USE THE APP TO CHANGE CONFIG, I could not get the sound working again without Testing the Sound in the TV Menu again.
There are plenty of controls to make things sound how you want them to sound. But use the remote to do it.
The bar sounds fantastic. LG Makes great hardware. I just wish their software was even close to average.

Navigate your games with this Logitech wireless mouse. Its optical sensor maximizes accuracy for a smoother gaming experience, and its 1 ms report rate reduces lag, so you don't fall behind in competition mode. This Logitech wireless mouse has a charging system that lets you power it wirelessly, so it doesn't interrupt your playing time.

I can't wait to get one of the Powerplay mats. This mouse is nearly perfect.
The weight and grip of the mouse is perfect for almost any grip. If you have large hands, this is one of the few mice I have used that is as comfortable for fingertip or palm grip.
The sensors are insanely fast and accurate. I can't tell a difference between wired and wireless. You can use the charging cable, which looks fast with built in wings, in a few different ways. You can attach the dongle direct to the PC or to a micro USB dock that attaches to the USB charging cable.
The glide of the mouse is true, possibly one of the smoothest gliding on any mouse pad I have used. The weight is almost ideal with the added weight that comes with it. I may look to find a slightly heavier weight to give a better feel to the movements.
The weight is held in place behind a magnetic panel. Very cool design.
I can't say enough good about this mouse. I have finally found the mouse to retire my "snake" named mouse.
One recommendation, definitely download the software from Logitech. You can adjust the DPI, set multiple profiles that can be saved on the mouse or PC which can auto detect the game you are in. Least importantly....change the light color and pattern.
Logitech has once again stepped up their game. I am really looking forward to getting a Powerplay pad. It will keep the mouse charged while in use or at rest.
Logitech gives you so many ways to connect, configure and operate this mouse. It is really amazing.

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5Great Headphones Period
By dharr18
Sound quality for these headphones are on par with their wired counterparts. Sound controls are inline and well placed for easy access.
The microphone performs much better than I expected, people I have talked to on the phone said I was clear and could not tell I was using a mic. The mic is built into the inline controls.
The ear pieces are quite comfortable and light. The base/receiver the ear tips extend from are rounded and smooth to avoid rubbing against your outer ear. As with most headphones you will get various sized options for ear size and comfort.
Inline controls are on the right hand side about 3 inches from the right headphone. The inline controls require some force to adjust volume, so you will not accidentally change volume. The power button, status lights and USB port are all on the right hand headpiece. All call controls, volume, etc are in the inline controller.
Battery life has been quite good. My initial usage points to about 12 hours battery life based on the Bose Connect app battery status, packaging claims 6 hours. There is built in battery savings for auto power off that can be adjusted in the app.
Speaking of the Bose Connect App, available in the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. The app is very basic and straightforward on Android. Open the app, it will prompt for you to turn on the headphones. Pair. Done. The App is not required unless you plan on making setting changes, such as default voice prompt language or auto power down options.
My only concern is the USB port cover, it is rubber and feels well built, tight fit and strong, but I fear this could easily get broken off the headphoness.
Packaging includes the headphones, Bose headphone case, 12 inch standard micro USB cable, (1) large and (1) small replacement ear tips, manuals and warranty information.
In the included photos I have a US Quarter and a AA size battery for reference for the size of the buds.

June 7, 2016
Just a quick update: The App has been updated to include these headphones. Still very basic, but the App on Android will allow you to control which two devices the headphones are connected to. Obviously you would keep the phone connected to control switching, but the app will allow you to control which device the headphones. This makes an easy switch from laptop to tablet to work laptop, etc. This control is under the Bluetooth button after the headphones connect to the phone.

Cleaning up after pets has never been easier than with CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro, our BEST CrossWave multi-surface cleaner for homes with pets. It vacuums and washes at the same time, across sealed hard floors and area rugs, combining cleaning steps and saving you time. It’s perfect for grab and go cleaning of frequent pet messes with up to 30 minutes* of hassle-free, cordless run time and it weighs just over 10.5 lbs. Our pet parent engineers incorporated three different cleaning modes: Hard Floor Mode, Area Rug Mode and TURBO PET Mode to boost cleaning performance, especially for pet and everyday stuck-on messes. CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro multi-surface cleaner also has LED headlights to illuminate pet hair, dirt and debris while cleaning along baseboards and in corners. And unlike when you use a mop and bucket, there’s no need to worry about putting dirty water on the floor while you clean, since our Two-Tank Technology keeps the clean and dirty water separate. When you’re done cleaning, CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro cleans itself! It has a self-cleaning cycle that rinses the brush roll and inside of the CrossWave with clean water, so there’s less clean-up after cleaning. Plus, it comes with two trial-size bottles of our PET Clean + Natural formula and two PET Multi-Surface Brush Rolls. And this machine doesn’t just clean up after pets, it helps save them! BISSELL proudly supports BISSELL Pet Foundation and its mission to help save homeless pets. When you buy a BISSELL product, you help save pets, too. We’re proud to design products that help make pet messes, odors and pet homelessness disappear.
Is this machine safe to use on hardwood floors?
From my experience, yes. I would use the hardwood formula cleaner to be safe. Also, make sure there is no open areas that will allow moisture to seep in. Any hardwood floor is susceptible to water damage if there is a opening/gap between the slats.

I have contacted Ninja about parts in the past and they are very good at replacing them at no cost. Not always, but they had good customer service. I had a blender part replaced. If not, their prices are about what you would expect, I needed to buy a couple extra cups for the blender.

The choice is yours. Whether you prefer making single cups of coffee with *K-Cup pods or full-sized carafes from coffee grounds, the nutribullet Brew Choice Pod + Carafe has the goods to brew both. Just insert your *K-Cup pod or filter, and the machine’s Brew Sense Technology will automatically adjust its display to match, giving you options to brew a 6, 8, or 10oz cup of *K-Cup coffee, or a 6, 9, or 12-cup carafe.
If using an actual K cup instead of the reusable, will it fit a K Cup from Keurig? or is it a special size where you have to use an exact brand?
