We use this primarily in the kitchen and dining room for quick clean-ups, but have used it around the house – including detaching and using the hand vacuum to remove pet hair from the furniture.
It has decent suction power, the roller brush seems to work well, the run time on the battery is decent, and it does an overall good job. It would be nice to have a second battery to have to avoid keeping the single battery always charged and ready for the next use.
I would not consider using this for an entire floor – or for the whole house. It does do well for us; however, as a daily cleaner-upper in the kitchen and dining room.

I really like these headphones for a number of reasons. They are not excessively heavy for a set of wireless headphones, they hold a charge for a good amount of time, they are easy to charge (USB), they are comfortable to wear (different size ear tips included), they have good high and low range, they work well for phone calls, and I like the cloth material that wraps the wires (comfortable + avoids tangled wires).
I really only have positive things to say about these...

Really stepped up my home stereo performance

Although I have been satisfied overall with the Polk speakers in my home stereo system, I've never been satisfied with the 6" ceiling speakers that provide the rear surround.
Having now replaced them with these 8" Sonance speakers, I am now very satisfied. These speakers make a noticeable difference.
The good news is that I previously had routed the speaker wires through the attic, so removing the old speakers, cutting out bigger holes, inserting, and installing these new speakers was a straight forward effort.

I'll start with the positives.
I am a big fan of Android and Google-enabled apps. That is what you get with this unit. After unboxing the unit - and without even configuring it for my home WiFi - it prompted me to open up the Google app on my Android phone. From there the app detected the TV and prompted me to accept the auto-setup. This is where the phone and the TV worked great together, transferring my Google account details to the TV - including the home WiFi SSID and password. The setup could not have been easier! It was effectively a hands-off configuration that worked really well.
The Google button on the remote is a great feature as well. I can simply press and hold the button to give verbal commands (like to open Netflix). With that said, there are several apps loaded like Netflix and Youtube that one comes to expect with a Smart TV. The Google feature is the value-add here.
Now as for the picture quality, this is where the price of the TV reveals itself. If you want a 65" TV with a decent picture, then this may very well be the one for you. If you want a sharp picture with great contrast and smooth motion, this will not be for you.
As for my selection of this device - I am putting it at the cabin where it will be used sparingly. It is a great fit with a great sized screen at an attractive price for that setting.
I ran a side-by-side test between this Hisense 65" set and my Samsung 55" set (both 4K) - and the difference was noticeable. With the Hisense, the motion is not smooth - it is a bit blurry - you can clearly see it in the scrolling text at the bottom of news channels and it is apparent when you watch a game.
So, for me, it is all about the price...

Whip up wholesome smoothies, purees and dressings with this 1800W Philips Avance high-speed blender.

Pull off various recipes with the five preset programs and variable-speed manual mode of this Philips Avance high-speed blender.

This unit is no joke when it comes to power. It has power to spare.
It has all of the usual modes that you would expect (to make a smoothie, for instance) - and it has no issues in the blending department. It comes with a "shroud of silence" -- a clear attachment that surrounds the blender to reduce noise that comes with the territory when blending at high speeds. This does make noticeable difference in reducing the sound - but it results in a much bulkier footprint. Since we are a bit light on cupboard space, we tend to run without the "shroud of silence" and deal with the noise.
Each Fall I make large batches of butternut squash soup. This requires a substantial blend (for many batches), so this will warrant the use of the shroud to reduce the noise. (FYI, last year's batch of squash soup did in my Blendtek blender, so we are looking for better results this year.)
I definitely recommend this beast of a blender...

Find the best fishing spots with this PowerDolphin Wizard water drone. The included PowerSeeker gives you data on water conditions, and the BaitBox function lets you drop bait to attract fish. This PowerDolphin Wizard water drone has a 4K UHD camera that captures stunning footage and quickly switches between above and underwater modes.

Having owned and operated drones for a number of years, it took a moment to get past the idea of a "water drone" type of concept. I was not sure if this was an RC boat or something else.
After my first run with this, I have found it to be a fun "grown up" toy that is fun to scoot across the water and to film underwater.
I have a cabin on a clear lake, so I was quickly drawn in by the underwater views along my shoreline. While I did not have time in my initial run to do so, I am eager to give the sonar a run-through next week to get a topographical view of the lake bottom.
In regard to setup, I have learned with my drones that you need to test your setup at home before you go into the field. In this instance that meant some trial and error to learn how to either enable a USB connection between my phone and the controller - or to disconnect my home WiFi connection in order to connect my phone to the controller via its WiFi connection. This took about 10 minutes to sort out.
I then filled the tub with water to make sure that I knew how to get the unit started. This required me viewing an online video to figure out that I needed to press and hold the unlock button on the remote in order to unlock the motors and operate them.
I am certain that this at-home testing saved me headaches once that I got to the cabin (where I had limited time to make an initial run with this unit). That initial run was very fun. The unit is pretty quick and responsive. The mobile app is intuitive and the controller is easy to use. The ability to change the camera position from above water to below water is also easy.
So far, so good. I'm liking this water drone and am looking forward to testing some more advanced features...

Got this for my daughter to use in decorating her room. The 9 tiles are easy to interconnect in any pattern you like - and to affix it to the wall with two-sided sticky pads. The first unit uses an AC adapter to plug into the wall and that same first unit also has controls to manually change things like patterns, colors, and brightness.
An app also gives further options for controlling the display.
This is a fun device that adds a little life to a room...

I have had a wall-mounted 27" double-wide LG monitor for a number of years now and I have come to rely on that for my daily work. I opted to go with this larger 34" double-wide display as my eyes have now aged a bit and as I will appreciate the larger display.
This new display works great and checks all of the boxes, including me using the double-wide display to work on large (wide) spreadsheets. I also use the display to show two documents side-by-side as I incorporate elements from multiple other documents into a current document.
Upon receiving this new display I see that a custom LG wall mount bracket is required (part number RW120), but it does not yet appear to be available for sale. A standard VESA display mount does not work, so the custom LG wall mount is required. This unfortunately means that I need to set my brand new monitor aside until I can purchase a wall mount. It is for this reason that I give it 4 versus 5 stars...

We have limited cabinet space, so have gotten by with a limited number of quality pots and pans. It was more important that we had quality versus quantity.
With this particular set; however, we now have both the quantity and the quality within a limited amount of space.
The first impression came when lifting the box set. It was very heavy.
Each pot and pan is very substantial, providing an even cook with good heat transfer. The nonstick coating is great.
The lids are not the usual dome shape. They are flat - which is part of the 'nesting' design that allow pots and pans to sit inside of one another with lids stacked on top of each other.
Wondering now how we went without a complete quality set like this for so long.

I love the power that this Ninja blender has. I previously had a Blendtec blender (that cost significantly more than the Ninja) - and I am very impressed with the overall performance / power and price of this Ninja blender.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner...

Cleaning up after pets has never been easier than with CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro, our BEST CrossWave multi-surface cleaner for homes with pets. It vacuums and washes at the same time, across sealed hard floors and area rugs, combining cleaning steps and saving you time. It’s perfect for grab and go cleaning of frequent pet messes with up to 30 minutes* of hassle-free, cordless run time and it weighs just over 10.5 lbs. Our pet parent engineers incorporated three different cleaning modes: Hard Floor Mode, Area Rug Mode and TURBO PET Mode to boost cleaning performance, especially for pet and everyday stuck-on messes. CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro multi-surface cleaner also has LED headlights to illuminate pet hair, dirt and debris while cleaning along baseboards and in corners. And unlike when you use a mop and bucket, there’s no need to worry about putting dirty water on the floor while you clean, since our Two-Tank Technology keeps the clean and dirty water separate. When you’re done cleaning, CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro cleans itself! It has a self-cleaning cycle that rinses the brush roll and inside of the CrossWave with clean water, so there’s less clean-up after cleaning. Plus, it comes with two trial-size bottles of our PET Clean + Natural formula and two PET Multi-Surface Brush Rolls. And this machine doesn’t just clean up after pets, it helps save them! BISSELL proudly supports BISSELL Pet Foundation and its mission to help save homeless pets. When you buy a BISSELL product, you help save pets, too. We’re proud to design products that help make pet messes, odors and pet homelessness disappear.
Is this machine safe to use on hardwood floors?
Yes, it is safe for hardwoods as it has good suction and does well at getting up all of the liquid that it dispenses for wet cleaning.
