Great remote replacing an older Harmony remote

I purchased this remote to replace an old Harmony 550 remote that I could no longer read the text on several buttons. The 550 served me well for several years, so I decided to replace it with the 665. The programming was very easy since I was just replacing it with the settings of the older 550. Works very well, and does the job. This is a secondary remote for my bedroom. I also own a Harmony One that I hope never quits working!

I was planning on purchasing a new chronograph watch, but decided to purchase an Android wear device, instead. I chose the Huawei watch over the others due to the style, sapphire crystal and amoled display. I mainly wanted to use it as a watch with notifications, but was pleasantly surprised by the functionality. The apps work very on a small display, and are actually more useful than expected. The charger could be better, but it does the job when aligned properly.
This is a fantastic looking watch, that exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended!

I purchased this universal BD player to replace a Panasonic DMP-BDT500 player that was being retired to a spare bedroom. I was pleasantly surprised by both the excellent video and sound produced by the Denon. All the features of the work as expected, and SACDs sound fantastic! Very happy with this purchase.

iPad mini features a beautiful 7.9" display, iSight® and FaceTime camera, the A5 chip, ultrafast wireless and up to 10 hours of battery life1. And over 275,000 apps2 on the App Store made for iPad work with iPad mini. So it's an iPad in every way, shape and slightly smaller form.

Perfect tablet for intended use
on September 4, 2014

I have been using a Samsung 7" tablet for a couple years. However, when it would no longer hold a charge for more than a day even without being used, I decided to look for a replacement. I went to Best Buy and looked at several tablets, but decided to purchase the iPad. I was disappointed with the limited life of the Samsung.
My son has a retina iPad that he has been using for a couple years without any battery issues, so I decided to purchase the iPad mini. I even like the display, and think it looks great. I mainly use it for reading books, controlling several stereo components, and surfing the internet.
Very happy with the iPad mini, especially with the current sale price! It does everything well that I need it to do.

Brews great coffee, but horrible reliability

This is my second Cuisinart, and both have failed in relatively short times. The first one lasted for about 1.5 years, and the second only lasted a year. My previous Braun, brewed great coffee for 14 years without a problem. These units seems to suffer from unreliable electronics and poor quality control.

What's great about it: Brews hot, great tasting coffee
What's not so great: Short life span
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great sounding player that is easy to use

I purchased this CD player to replace an older, massive 400 disc Sony carousel. I needed to make room for a larger, new receiver so I researched this player on the Best Buy website (and others), and it seemed to rate highly everywhere I looked. I decided to purchase this unit to replace my other Sony, and I am very happy with the operation and features. Great price also when it is on sale at Best Buy.

What's great about it: Easy to use, holds 5 discs with a clean design
What's not so great: Nothing

Great sounding receiver with plenty of power
on April 13, 2014
Posted by: paulm30
from Joliet, IL
I have been looking for a new receiver to replace my current Denon AVR-990. I was never really happy with the sound quality of the 990 compared to my older Denon AVR-3300 that I had previously used for 12 years. I had considered going with an NAD, Marantz or Anthem receiver until I walked into Best Buy to buy a new movie and saw the sale price on the 4520. I was hesitant at first, but found the sales rep that had approached me that day. There was no unit on display to listen to, so I figured I would just purchased it and return it if I did not like it. It is still a pricey receiver even when it is on sale.
The setup was very simple for a previous Denon owner, and the Audyssey setup seemed to be much quicker than my 990 even though there were 2 more positions to configure. When I was done with the setup and played some of my favorite CDs on the 4520, I knew I made the right choice. I really liked the fullness of the sound and power of this receiver. It is like it brought new life back into my Klipsch KLF-30s. If you are looking for a great sounding receiver with plenty of power, I highly recommend you take a hard look at this receiver especially when it is on sale at Best Buy!

What's great about it: Love the sound and power reserves
What's not so great: The manual is on disk so it is difficult to read about all the features

It says with updates you can make and receive phone calls, how do you hear the caller?
You can answer the phone using the watch, but you must pick up the phone to talk.
