Watch cable tv without a box
on April 27, 2018
Posted by: RichB
from Saratoga Springs
Verified Purchase:Yes
This adapter allows you to watch all video being played on your iPhone or iPad on any tv with a HDMI port. It negates the need to mirror to an Apple TV. However, what really drove me to purchase this adapter was cable tv companies switching to all digital, thereby requiring all TVs to have a cable box. An alternative is to download an app (in my case the Spectrum TV app) to your phone or tablet. This allows you to watch tv on your phone. With this adapter you can now watch live tv on any tv without the need to pay for additional cable boxes. Works great with full HD picture quality.

Enjoy stunning picture quality with this Samsung 4K television. The UHD Dimming feature supports vibrant contrast and color, and lower resolution movies or TV shows are enhanced to allow near-HD sharpness. The smart TV features of this 43-inch Samsung 4K television can be accessed with a simple remote control or app.

Good picture quality when viewed straight on. Noticeable loss in picture quality when viewed from angles greater than about 45 degrees.

Works great

Great for controlling lights remotely and to enable lights to turn on and off at times you choose e.g. on at sunset, off at 11:00. App for setting up these rules is a bit confusing. Only reason not to give a 5 star rating is that it does not work with 3 way switches. I also love that it can be controlled by Amazon Echo (Alexa).

Sophisticated controller for lights and/or applian
on December 2, 2016
Posted by: RichB
Verified Purchase:Yes
I use this to control lights when I'm away from home for 3 months in the winter. It knows when sunset is and I programmed it to turn the house lights on 15 min. before sunset and turn them off at 11:30 PM. This is much superior to a typical mechanical timer in that it maintains the correct time even after a power outage. I can monitor the status of the switch from anywhere through my iPhone. It's comforting to confirm that the switch is operating properly when I'm away for so long. An extra bonus is that it works flawlessly with Alexa (Amazon echo) so that when I'm home, l can control the light by voice command. The switch is extremely easy to set up and to establish programs for how you want the switch to function. Although I use it only for lights, it can be used to control almost any electrical appliance.

Easy setup. Great functionality.

Works like a charm with my Overhead Door brand garage door. Easy to install and setup - 1/2 hour max. iPhone app is very good . Love receiving notifications of when the door is opened and closed. This allows you to know if the door is closed without even having to open the app. - just look at the notifications.

Pricey for standard microwave
on December 11, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
Only reason I bought this microwave was to match the kitchenaid range I bought and I received a free cookware promotion for buying both . Works fine, but so do microwaves costing half the price. If looks are not important, but something cheaper.

Nice range, good features
on December 11, 2015
Posted by: RichB
Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice looking range with excellent features, but takes some getting used to. First attempts at baking were not good as it took much longer to bake than it should have. After buying an oven thermometer, it was discovered that the oven was not up to temperature when the range said it was. Full preheating takes about 10 min longer that the range indicates. Once you wait the extra time,the oven temperature is quite accurate.
