Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and this toaster with extra-wide slots and a choice of 7 toasting shades will help you start the day off right.
Posted by: Pengwin
This toaster does everything I need out of a toaster. I cook toast and it does the job just fine. Oster has been very reliable to me. As long as it does not break down on me, I am satisfied with it for my daily needs. I will be buying another one for my relatives too.

Enjoy consistent results in the kitchen with this 1.2 cu. ft. Panasonic inverter microwave. Its sensor cooking feature automatically adjusts the time and power level to prevent overcooking, and the Turbo Defrost function provides quick, even defrosting. This 1200W Panasonic inverter microwave has nine preset options for cooking common foods.

I bought this microwave on sale and it is one of the best there is. Inverter technology is more accurate than the microwaves on the market nowadays. It heats up food very fast as well because of how high the wattage is.
Most microwaves get negative reviews when they break, but mine hasn't so I have nothing to complain about.
My only dislike, which is a small one, is how huge the microwave is. You need to see it in person and have enough counter space for it. It is a lot bigger than you'd think and the inside is not as roomy for how big it is. But this is only a small gripe.

Type easier and more accurately with the height-adjustable HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard. It's compatible with many computers and tablets, and the 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity works from as far away as 30 feet. The keys of the HP Elite V2 wireless keyboard operate quietly, and prevent dust and dirt accumulation.

This is one of the best keyboards on the market imo. I've gotten way too used to island keyboards on my HP envy laptop and cannot go back to a standard keyboard. This keyboard has a mini USB dongle and a button to check for battery power. Takes 2 AAA batteries, which comes included.
The buttons feel really smooth and it has an FN key. I connect it to my laptop when I use it externally and could not be happier. This keyboard makes the transition from a laptop to desktop seamless. The keys are very responsive, there is honestly nothing I dislike about it. It works extremely well. Buy it if you love the island style keyboards.

This 24" BenQ GW Series GW2450 LED HD monitor features Senseye 3 Human Vision technology with 6 preset modes to suit a wide range of viewing needs. The 1920 x 1080 resolution delivers high-definition images with intense clarity.

This is one of the few VA panels you can find. It has better viewing angles and colors than a TN panel, and better response times than an IPS for gaming. The 4 GTG ensures there's no ghosting during games.
The color is great and clear. The saturation is very great and the color ratios are extremely high. BenQ is one of the least understood monitors in the USA imo. I first learned about them through gaming and the MLG. So I took a dive and bought this monitor, and could not be happier with it.
It does not come with an HDMI slot, so you will need a DVI to HDMI converter cable or a plug, which is not a big deal. Unlike the GW2450H, this model does not have speakers so HDMI is not very important.
I would recommend.

This Cooler Master Notepal X2 cooling pad features a silent fan to dissipate high temperatures generated by the laptop CPU and GPU to create a cool working environment on a desk or your lap when you're on the go.
Posted by: Pengwin
I had the Notepal X2 and currently own the Notepal X3. The Notepal X3 is noticeably more sturdy and has a bigger fan. In terms of lightness, I would take the Notepal X2. However, the tradeoffs are that it is somewhat more flimsy. Mine broke after 6 months and RMA is pretty much not worth it because Coolermaster puts return shipping on your bill.
For the price, it is a good buy. It keeps the notebook cool and is easy to use on your lap.

Keep your laptop cool and working efficiently with this Cooler Master NotePal X3 cooling pad that fits most laptops with up to a 17" display and features an integrated USB hub for easily connecting peripherals.
Posted by: Pengwin
I've owned the Notepal X2 and now the Notepal X3 for comparison.
The Notepal X3 is a lot thicker, but much more sturdy. The fan on it is noticeably bigger and thus, keeps my laptop noticeably cooler. My laptop would often get hot, but when the fan is turned on, it does not burn me when I touch it.
What you are paying for when you purchase the Notepal X3 is a bigger fan, making your laptop cooler. The X2 uses a USB to USB cord, but the X3 uses a special pin to USB.
My biggest concern would be the size of the thing. It is definitely not as big as I would have imagined. I could not find very many accurate photos on the internet, but it fits my 14.5" laptop very well. The X2 is noticeably thinner though. However, you get a huge fan with the X3. It's a tradeoff. I would not let size deter you if you are looking to buy the X3.
What's great about it: A wide fan, keep temperature low
What's not so great: Thick
