Bright, Great Picture, Nice User Interface

I've been looking for a nice projector for work and decided to try this one out. I was very impressed with how bright it is under the office lighting as well as how easy to navigate through all the windows. Fonts and presentations are very easy to read and allows multiple type of connections in the back. Unfortunately video playback is not the best however since this is more for business presentations I am not worried about it. The controller and bag that it comes with is very nice and makes for easy travelling.
Overall I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good mid-price range projector

Great Monitor / Great Display

I was in the market for a curve display with great refresh rate and quality picture. I really enjoy this monitor and the ease of navigation through the menus using the knob on the back of the panel. Over all the ports are easy to access and connect to peripherals and the menu navigation is a breeze. There are multiple customized settings you can go through to set the picture to the way you prefer.
Overall I recommend this monitor for anyone who is looking for a curve display.

I was in search of a good mechanical keyboard that provides a great feel of responsiveness when I press the keys. I also decided to try a little flare with looking for a luminating one.

They also provided tools to swap out the ASDW keys for us gamers. Only issue is I miss the number key pad off to the right side.

Scans Great, Mobile App Sucks
on February 26, 2021
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I really enjoy how well this scanner scans the images and able to scan both sides at the same time. It is compact, light and easy to carry to travel with you. The hardware itself is made well, and has papers extensions to allow for easy placement and exits of the original paper to be scanned. The computer software is simple, easy to use and does a Firmware update right on the spot. The only complaint I have is the Android App that is suppose to work with this scanner. The ESPON Android app is HORRIBLE !! No matter what I did it would not detect the scanner. It is suppose to connect via AP connection which would be great to use when out in the field. However the Android app never worked no matter what I tried. If you use your computer, its great however if you wish to use your android good luck ....

Excellent Filter, Great App!
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
Unfortunately I have the curse of horrible sinuses. I have been in search of a high quality filter to help curve some of the sinus attacks and headaches. I have gone through many times of air purifiers of all shapes and sizes. When I came across this Air Purifier I instantly fell in love. The way it functions, ease of use of the phone app and the detailed information of the current air qualities are great!
I recommend anyone who is interested in a high end Air Purified and suffers from allergies to look into this product. It is pricey however I feel it is worth it with the amount of functionality and filtering it does.

Not Recommended
on December 24, 2020
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I use and test multiple robot cleaners for my home and can say that this one is the least of my favorite out of the different brands. The charge takes forever, the bot is extremely noisy and the app map is very basic. Also for some reason it only charges to 95% and the battery drains way to fast, 2 cleans at its below 40%
Carpet -
The amount of surface area it is able to clean at a time is small compared to others. Also it seems to be unable to keep from bouncing when running across the carpet to provide a level clean. This results in spotty vacuuming along the carpet. Even with the max vacuum power mode it left spots all over. Also the whiskers to sweep are so slow and 1 prong instead of 3 like other bots. It does not sweep anything into the bot. The logic is also very poor, going over the same area or sits at one spot in circles for a long time. The clean was so horrible I ended up having to use my regular vacuum afterwards.

Non-Carpet / Mop Area-
It was ok, it is suppose to not go over carpet areas in mop mode and it does that to a point. Sometimes it gets the corners of carpets so gets them wet. The area was dry after it runs over it so that's a plus. However the surfaces do not appear clean after it mops over it. I am not sure if its the soap solution that they provide with it or the bot itself.

The App -
The app has a lot of great information when it comes to the robot, settings and configuration. However one of the most important areas "The Map" it lacks tremendously. You are not able to customize the cleaning areas, you instead get rooms that you can then shrink or enlarge. You are unable to draw on the map or line out areas and unable to re-arrange the rooms that the app numbered.

Overall the robot is not made very well, the wheels are small, the chassis is light which causes it to bounce when cleaning and the whiskers do nothing for sweeping. The cleaning reservoir is large which is a huge plus, however not needed since it does a horrible job cleaning anything.
I would not recommend this product at all and go to another product. This feels very cheap and not worth the price

Ok Speakers, Basic Functions, Great Picture
on November 30, 2020
Posted by: TechTux
from San Antonio, TX, USA
It is a great idea to have a small reliable projector however the cuts to make it affordable is noticeable. The sound has no depth, very basic and surround sound is not recommended. Picture looks great and has a lot of inputs available to connect to multiple devices. The GUI is easy to use and identifies the media types. There are some customizability when it comes to picture, sound and menus. Overall it is a good device to meet basic needs however would not recommend if looking for a "Home Theater Experience"

I have been very fascinated with cameras that print out the picture as soon as it is taken. I really enjoyed this camera as the charge lasted a very long time and was easy to use. The picture come out in good clear quality and the camera is able to hold quite a few. I also liked how you can have a memory card inserted for digital copies. Overall I would recommend checking this camera out for a fun easy way to have instant pictures.

Easy to Use, Easy Clean, No Sticking

I was in desperate need of a Crock-Pot as my old one from 10 years gave out. I came across this product and quickly fell in love with it. It is easy to use, huge capacity and super easy to clean won me over. There are so many Crock-Pot's out there with complicated menu's and features it is very refreshing to just have one do what its suppose to do with no fuss. I made my famous Cheese Meat Dip and it was super easy to clean afterwards. If you are in the market for an easy to use simple crock-pot this is the one for you. It does one job and does it well with a menu that is super easy to navigate. I strongly recommend this product.

will this stream net flix and amazon? this is probably a stupid question, but I need help.
Its ok , do not feel silly asking as I am sure there are others out there with the same question. Yes it will stream both and the quality is just as good as Roku however the Netflix version on Amazon TV/Firestick will not show the actually video quality in the status during play. I am always checking to make sure Netflix is streaming the show at 720p or 1080p as it can change during play and that was a little disappointing when I discovered I couldn't on Amazon TV/Firestick
