There's just something about opening a bottle of wine. The ceremonial quality of removing the cork truly indicates it's time to unwind. Whether relaxing solo after a long day at the office or hosting an intimate dinner soirée or holiday party, the Oster® Silver Electric Wine Opener makes it easy to start the evening off in sophisticated style.

I purchased this wine opener to replace another brand that finally quit after 2 years. This one is better. It takes less space on the counter and is a little smaller to hold allowing easier use. I really like that the base holds the foil cutter and is easy to remove. Inexpensive and easy to use--buy it!

Unbelievably easy install and extremely fast wifi

I received this modem/router for free as a tester for the Netgear friends and family program. Having said that, I promise this is a fair and accurate review of the product. I am a Time Warner Cable internet customer with the Ultimate 300 plan. Before this router I had the Netgear AC1750, which is a good router, but the wifi from the AC1900 is a huge improvement! The speeds I receive from either router directly to my desktop through an Ethernet cable are comparable at about 300 mbps. This may be a limitation of my 4 year old computer or the TWC feed itself, but what I would expect for the plan I pay for. Where I think this router really shines is wifi speed. I live in a large single story ranch house with several rooms and walls in between the opposite ends of the house. The router is approximately in the center of the house. Using Speedtest.net on my Galaxy Tab S I averaged 269 mbps download and 24 mbps upload over the 5g wifi signal about 50 feet away from the router in the kitchen. At the other end of the house through several more walls I was getting over 100mbps download on the same device. My kid's IPhone 5s was able to get over 60 mbps in his bedroom which has historically been a wifi deadzone in our house. The 2.4 signal seemed to work better in the most remote areas through the most walls.
With the improvement in wifi I would have been willing to do just about anything for the installation, but luckily, the installation was super easy. Following the instructions in the included Quick Start guide, I typed in the TWC address indicated and had the AC1900 activated and operating in less than 5 minutes----without talking to TWC on the phone!
Also, after downloading the Netgear genie app, I changed all of the SSIDs and passwords to my previous settings so I didn't have to do any changes on my wireless devices. All told from opening the box to total completion was less than 30 minutes with no difficulties. This was the easiest modem/router install I've ever done.

Google Nexus - 7" - 32GB: With more pixels than an HDTV and a speedy quad-core processor, movies and images on this Nexus 7 tablet look razor-sharp and process quickly with little buffer time.

I have the original nexus 7 and the latest version. I really like the original, but after buying the newest version it is so much better. The screen is so much brighter and it is razor sharp. Also, it is slightly narrower and much thinner and lighter than the original---it is so much easier to hold with one hand. I also like the way the back feels compared to the original. Sound quality is much improved over the first version. I can watch a movie without earphones even with moderate room noise.
Later build dates may be the way to go for quality. I had to return a unit build in 7/2013 because the GPS didn't work. The next one I bought was build in 8/2013 and I've had no problems.
