Great AC router, so protect it well
on April 29, 2016
Posted by: CharlieCat
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a top-ranked router on many online sites, and there is a reason for that. It just works well. Speedy fast!
This is actually my third AC68, and they have all worked well. Great speed now that we have a few 5G toys running at 600 and 867 . The first had a random death--we lost the ability to reset it under the "admin" default, and it may have been a victim of a storm related power surge here in Indiana. The warranty replacement from ASUS took way too long--three weeks from ASUS, but that is another story. The second one lasted for four months, then fell victim to an early season thunderstorm. Enough already! Didn't plug the third (current) one in until I had an $80 Panamax power conditioner to protect it. The Panamax lasted only four days--snuffed by a minor power fluctuation in high winds. [The alarm clocks and microwave didn't go to 12:00 blinky-reset land, but the Panamax died--weird!] Finally got a new P-max and we are still going
All that to say, this router iworks great--we've easily had 12-20 things going--but it is far from cheap. It will get zoinked if you live in an area with electrical storms. Do yourself a favor and buy this with a good power conditioner at the SAME time...and the FIRST time. And then enjoy the router as well as the peace of mind.

Save time and money by installing your dishwasher yourself with this complete, high-quality kit. This kit is required if you have your dishwasher professionally installed.

Hard to say anything bad about this. It does the job. And it is a required purchase with my installation being done by BB. But let me say, having installed a pass-along dishwasher from my in laws in our first house, there is something to be said for having a kit handy with everything you need...

I am a big fan of the Daniel Craig series and this one is another solid installation. The references to the old Spectre movies are fun, but I found the building of James' mysterious past to be more interesting. Maybe not the way I would have written it, but good storytelling nonetheless

Incredible sleeve + value + HP Spectre
on April 3, 2016
Posted by: CharlieCat
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have several Brenthaven bags, but with my new 2016 Spectre I needed something that would better fit its slim profile. This is THE bag. I can't speak to MS Surface users about it, but it you need a slim but well-padded and well-finished sleeve for any Spectre, just get this now. Especially at 1/2 price. Brenthaven is top quality, and this slim bag + slim Spectre will fit in any bag/pack. Two "D" rings would have been great to allow for a strap add-on, but this is perfect for protecting your ultrabook inside another bag. You will have about 1/2 inch space along one edge and 3/4 on the top. Not bad

Sometimes it can be hard to get everyone in my family on board for a movie, but this one was a big hit with everybody. Action, science, humor, drama, and a little romance. And of course some suspense. Can't wait for it in 4k

Picked this up for my wife's stocking for Christmas. She loves it. And how can you go wrong with a sing along version? Now we need to grab the sequel so we can catch those magical moments with the dulcet tones of the Green Bay Packers

With the release of the fourth Jurassic, I wanted to go back and get this on BluRay. Not a huge fan of numbers two and three, but life is good with the other two

iPad mini 4 has a gorgeous 7.9-inch Retina display, yet it's only 6.1mm thin and weighs just 0.65 pounds, making it small enough to hold in one hand. It has a powerful A8 chip with 64-bit desktop-class architecture, advanced iSight and FaceTime HD cameras, Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, iCloud, the breakthrough Touch ID fingerprint sensor, and up to 10 hours of battery life. It also includes great apps for productivity and creativity, and powerful new features in iOS 9 like multitasking. And there are even more incredible apps available in the App Store.

After 2.5 years of my trusty 1st gen Mini, the long wait - putting off of buying a Mini 2 or 3 - paid off. Great Retina screen, lots of storage, and loving the super AC wifi speeds. Sure Apple is too expensive, but this one it worth it. Slightly taller/longer, so I had to get one new slim cover, but my old Logitech Folio keyboard cover has enough flexibility to fit

Set aside your science caps and just enjoy the fon. My father in law watched it and pronounced it "silly". Yeah, ok, but set aside reality and it is a blast.

This Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.
Bask in a fresh breeze, instead of steaming in the heat with this Frigidaire FFRE1233S1 air conditioner, which features up to 12,000 BTUs of cooling power. Save energy by programming the air conditioner to turn on only when you need it using the 24-hour timer.
can u turn this unit on manually?
Yes, there is a touch screen on the front of the unit, just like on your typical microwave or dishwasher

Denon HEOS 1 Portable Wireless Speaker: Get the party started with streaming audio or listen to your favorite tunes by the pool with this portable speaker. Charging your USB devices and wired connectivity are quick and easy, thanks to the USB port.
Is setup difficult?
We have had no setup issues whatsoever. Own two first gen Heos 1 and a first gen Heos 5. Setup was a breeze, the app has been stable, and we can easily play from Rhapsody account and what we have on our iOS devices. There is not a Windows 10 app for the Heos, which is a bit of a bummer, but there are workarounds that you can explore to, say, run a line into the speaker from your headphone jack on a laptop. Here in stormy Indiana we often have had to unplug these from the wall (thunderstorms), but they come right back up to get on our wifi network and sync with our devices and the Heos app
