Hamilton Beach-6 slice Toaster oven-Baker

Verified Purchase:Yes
Better fit on counter and toasts very well. Love it. I've tried many other little ovens and like this one the best (as I have 3 others in the box that didn't fit our use). I have shorter height on cabinets so it can't be too tall but I still want the toasting space for family of 5. This fits nicely as it's not too tall and has nice toasting of all products so far. No matter what is toasted it has a fairly even toast and easily set to browness desired. Very happy with this small toaster.

Seagate-Backup Plus 5TB external USB Hardrive

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been using this for a couple of months now and aside from not being able to keep the USB plugged in and turning it off it is working very well for transferring my photos and videos from my desktop to keep them safe. I've lost so many things in the past during 'crashes' and power surges I'm very glad this is a very good saving device.

Our new HD Smart Vizio 50" TV
on January 1, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
Our Christmas Present to our family. Comparing it to a flat screen non Smart HDTV the difference is a WOW factor. It's going from a flat viewing look to like 3D. It performs well, takes a little to get to match your satellite or cable, but once it was all set the viewing is for us spectacular. So much clearer and the bigger picture is much easier for our 'older' eyes. We love it.

NetGear Wifi extender
on September 22, 2013
Posted by: olemar
from Merrill, WI
I use it in...:Large home
Verified Purchase:Yes
We have our wifi set up in the living room which reaches upstairs and our 2 bedrooms downstairs, basically our entire house. This summer we added a deck onto the back of our house - wifi didn't reach the deck so we could sit outside with a laptop. We discussed with the techs at the store what we could do. We purchased this NetGear extender and placed it 3 rooms away from our wifi box and 2 1/2 rooms away from the deck. We now can use our laptop on the deck. It worked great for us. Our house was built over 100 yrs. ago and it's made from a lot of brick and some metal walls. This was a great purchase for us. Our wifi now works like a charm where ever we wish to use it.

Easily bake a pizza, cookies and more in this toaster oven that features Element IQ technology that suggests the ideal cooking temperature and time for each of the 8 preset programs.
 

Does it come with any other accessories?

I saw this Breville Compact oven for the same price in other stores and some will include a 10"x10" baking pan and/or pizza pan and/or bamboo cutting board on top. Does this one from BB come with any of those accessories?
It doesn't have a cutting board with, but it does come with a 10 1/2 x 9 1/2 baking pan that fits nicely.

Setting up wireless network for some trailers in a work yard

We are living at our shop in another state where our boss wants to provide us with internet at our trailers using wireless off of his internet connection. We need to send the signal maybe a quarter of a mile from the shop to our trailers. We can see the wifi if we open the blinds on our trailers(they are metal blinds) but we only get one bar. I saw this Amped Wireless AP600EX booster online and wonder if this will work for this application. Nobody really knows how to make this work. I bought a little booster for my laptop and it works for me but I don't think its going to work for everyone. If this is not the right thing for our issue can you educate me what to use? Thank you
So far we have only tried to go about 60 ft. which is the distance from original wifi box to the outside deck. We get 4 bars when not by the window and 5 bars when sitting outside the open kitchen window (the kitchen is lined with metal, don't know why they did that before we bought the house). I'm assuming it would be worth a try but can't answer more than that. It does a great job for what we need. I would try to contact a Best Buy techie and see what they can help with. They gave us our advice, we have learned the hard way ( a lot of non working stuff sitting in a store room) to find someone professional what might work best for you. And as always if your anywhere near a store they take returns well if it's not working for you.
