Enjoy your beverages hot or cold with this Takeya ThermoFlask bottle. Its double-wall, vacuum-insulated stainless steel construction keeps coffee hot for up to 12 hours and smoothies cold the entire day. The wide-mouth opening of this 18-oz Takeya ThermoFlask bottle lets you pop in ice cubes or remove tea bags easily.

Good Thermal Bottle

This water bottle is made for both hot and cold beverages. It keeps hot tea (or coffee) hot for about 8 hours if it is poured in scalding hot. I have not yet used it for cold beverages, but it might work even better for those. The only negative I have found is that my hot tea tends to have a slight taste of stainless steel if it has been in the bottle for awhile.

Bose SoundLink Color

Verified Purchase:Yes
I had the previous version of this speaker and liked it a lot. My primary complaint was that the battery did not seem to hold a charge as long as I thought it should have. I thought the sound was great, given the size of the speaker.
This newer version is an improvement in every way. The battery holds a longer charge, the sound is deep and rich, and an app has been created which is available in both iOS and Android versions and can be used to perform several speaker functions, including software updates. I am so glad I decided to upgrade. Pairing is very easy, as it was in the past.

Good Wall Charger

What can I say about a wall charger, except that it does its job and provides a fast charge. I have owned other Belkin products of this type and expected good performance. So far I have not been disappointed.

Mophie Power Reserve 1X
on September 9, 2016
Posted by: GranC
from Lawrenceville, GA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have owned Mophie power products for a few years now, so I bought this power stick with the confidence it would get the job done. I have purchased several of these to use multiple at a time if necessary. I have not been disappointed at all. They keep my iPhone and/or iPad well charged until I have a power outlet available again. The biggest advantage to me is how portable these units are. The size allows me to toss this plus a charging cable in my purse without adding much weight or bulk.

Protect your 38mm Apple Watch from nicks and scratches with this X-Doria Defense Edge case. It has a durable anodized-aluminum exterior that absorbs the shock when your watch is bumped or dropped, and a soft rubber lining provides a barrier so that the metal never touches it. This X-Doria Defense Edge case snaps onto your Apple Watch for easy installation.

X-Doria Defense Edge 38mm Case for Apple Watch

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have purchased these cases in most of the available colors. They are pricey, but they are worth every penny. They snap on and off easily and protect the watch face better than anything else I have tried. They are sturdy and I have never felt as though they are subject to easy breakage. They are also attractive and can be worn as an enhancement to any of the available bands for the Apple Watch.

Charging your Apple Watch is utterly effortless with an Apple solution that combines MagSafe technology with inductive charging. It's a completely sealed system free of exposed contacts. And it's very forgiving, requiring no precise alignment. You simply hold the connector near the back of the watch, where magnets cause it to snap into place automatically.

Apple Watch Cable

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this cable to use with my new Apple Watch, which came only with a 2m cable. That cable was much too long for my needs so I purchased this to have a cable I could actually use. It's a must for keeping your Apple Watch charged, and I'm actually using it with a dock. It's a good length without being too long.

I bought this cable because my existing HDMI cable was several feet too short when my equipment was rearranged. I have found Rocketfish products to be reliable and of good quality. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Good Accessory To Have

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of several mophie Juice Packs I have tried. It claims to add 80% battery life to the iPhone battery, and as far as I can tell, it does just that. The case includes an internal 1500mAh battery which provides the power to charge the iPhone battery on the go. The case is also durable enough to provide a good degree of protection in case the phone is dropped. There are cutouts in the case to provide easy access to all iPhone controls and functions without having to remove the case. Included is also a line extension adapter to attach to your headphone cables so that the bottom of the case can remain in place when using headphones. There is a special USB charging cable included which allows simultaneous charging of both the iPhone and Juice Pack.

Does anyone know if there’s a replacement for the cable/wall adapter. Mine broke quite shortly after buying it and I can’t find the cable elsewhere.

Probably Mophie would have a replacement.

Clean more dishes in less time. This Bosch dishwasher lets you change rack positions until everything fits with its 3 rack organization system. Plus, front controls let you set cycles and select options easily, like Speed 60, Five-Level Wash, and Extra Dry.
 

Am I the only one who finds the controls complicated? Starting the machine requires 4 or 5 steps. I When it’s done you have to turn power off manually (really). You have to hit off to turn off lighted display every time.

Please read the manual that came with the dishwasher. You can preset your preferences to save time on some of those steps.

can i wash my fine china in the bosch-300 series? it does not seem to have a fine china setting

It does not have a Delicate or China setting, but I have washed both fine china and crystal on the Auto setting (without the Extra Dry setting) and the results were great! I do not know what long term washing of delicate items would produce, but I am happy with the 3 loads I have done which included china and crystal.

I know, old school, but i have a lot of music on a usb memory stick.... haha. Do any Bose speakers have a USB port so I can plug in my USB stick so I have more than the one option of just Bluetooth?

No, the SoundLink Color speakers do not.

Keep your iPhone 5, 5s or SE charged with this mophie battery case. It boosts the battery life by up to 100 percent, and it comes with a microUSB cable for charging both the case and phone simultaneously. This mophie battery case protects against everyday damage, and it has integrated buttons for unimpeded access to all phone features.
 

While my iPhone 5 and Mophie Air Red are attached and charging, does the slider switch on the back of the charging pack have to be ON or OFF?

I have read the reviews and understand which side of the slider switch is "on" or "off" but I am unclear if during the charging process if the slider switch should be "on" or "off". Sorry if this is a silly question.
I don't think it matters if the switch is on or off. I think if it's on,
it just means that the power is being slightly drained while you
are charging the case. To preserve the case's reserve power, slide
the switch to the "off" position while charging. You may want to email
Mophie tech support to be sure of my answer.
