My wife have been looking at getting at pressure cooker for the longest time and we finally did it with this Ninja Foodi. The first thing that we love about our Foodi is that it isn't just a pressure cooker, it is also an air fryer. Neither my wife nor myself have a lot of previous experience with pressure cookers, but we have seen friends and family use it and wanted to try it for ourselves. My first piece of advice is to really read the instructions that come with this Foodi to insure that your pressure cooker works properly. My wife and I had some recipes in mind that we wanted to try, but we absolutely love the recipe book that comes with this Ninja Foodi. It has a variety of food that you can prepare with the pressure cooker and the air fryer. Since this was really the first time my wife and I have used a pressure cooker, we followed the advice given in the manual of just starting with water to see how the pressure cooker works. Once we read the directions and felt comfortable with how it works we started out with some salmon and rice. We love how both can be prepared at the same time! Because of the large space that the Foodi has, preparing two items at the same time is very common. Once we are done with the meal, we love how easy it is to clean. We longer have to scrub like we have done with our other food preparation devices. You can't beat the versatility that this Ninja Foodi offers. If you love to prepare a variety of food items, my wife and I highly recommend getting one for your kitchen.

I got this Passport external hard drive because we were shutting down an old computer and buying a new. We are old fashioned and have many documents, pictures and videos on our computer as opposed to having them on a cloud. We needed something that we could use to transfer all our stuff from one computer to the new one fairly easy and quickly. The Passport hard drive was easy to set up on the old computer and very user friendly in showing us how to download the our files to the external hard drive. We set up our new computer and connected the external hard drive and within 15 minutes we had all of our files on the new computer. It was very painless and very quick procedure. If you are looking for a device to store or transfer large amount of files in a quick and easy way, I highly recommend this Passport hard drive.

I have been gaming for 8 years and my son for the last 4 years and we both agree that this is the best gaming mouse that we have owned. Our number one reason why we love this mouse is the 16k DPI range. It is the most accurate and smooth mouse that we have owned. We feel that the dpi range gives us an advantage. We are also big fans of the programmable button that allow for custom one-click commands. Another definite plus is that it is wireless, it allows for much more versatility when gaming. We like having the option of having the 10g weight that you can easily remove if you don't care for it. I think that it provides extra stability. We also both like the hub where we can customize our sensitivity settings, buttons and of course the lighting. This mouse doesn't use batteries, so it has to be charged, but the charge lasts easily 35 hours. Overall, if you are serious about your gaming, then we highly recommend you get this Logitech G703 gaming mouse.

I got these Sony wireless noise canceling headphones for my wife and she absolutely loves them! First off, she loves how easy it was to sync to her devices. You just need to download their app and it was very easy for her to sync the headphones to her devices and she isn't very good with technology. Her next comment was how soft the headphones were on her ears. It did take charging them 5 hours before they were fully charged and ready to go, but she has used them for the last week which was roughly 20 hours of use and she has yet to recharge them. She loves to watch movies and shows on her I pad and she just couldn't get over the sound quality. She really enjoyed the Extra Bass feature which really enhanced her movie watching experience. She hasn't really used the digital noise cancellation, but she did use it on our recent road trip and she said it did and excellent job of cancelling all of the noise from the road. She couldn't find anything negative to say about these headphones. She and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for good quality headphones that produce high quality sound and offer the noise cancellation capability.

I got this HP laser printer because I run a small business from home. I have always had an inkjet printer, but I have to constantly replace the cartridges. I have always heard that the laser printer toner makes much more copies than the ink printers. If you plan to use it at home, make sure you have a good amount of space. If you are placing this printer in an office workplace, you should have plenty of space because it isn't any bigger than your average laser printer. It was a small challenge to get it out of the box, but with help it came out easily. For my business I just need to print, copy and scan, so I didn't test the fax capabilities. Once out of the box it was easy to set up. I followed the instructions from the 4 inch touchscreen, which is nice since my eye-sight isn't that great. Next I downloaded the latest software needed and I was ready to go. I really like that the toner is already installed, so no need to mess with the ink. I set up a wireless connection and I was able to easily print from my computer, phone and I pad. The copies are much nicer than my previous ink printer, the copies look much more professional. I also do a lot of scanning and the quality there was also much better than my previous HP ink printer. Besides the quality of the prints, the speed is also very nice, especially when printing double-sided. Overall, I am extremely happy with this HP Laser JetPro printer because it is easy to set up, very user friendly and most importantly the printing is high quality.

I got these Jlab wireless earbuds for my teenage daughter and she loves them. To begin with, she really liked how easy they were to set up and very user friendly when you get them up and running. Next, she really likes how comfortable they are in her ears, especially since one of the options is the cloud foam which made the earbuds stay in her ears nicely. When she first took them out of the box, she thought they would be heavy because they look kind of bulky, but to her delight, they are very light in her ears. She was able to sync the buds to her phone and laptops very quickly. She really loved the sound that comes out of these Jlab earbud and also commented that the mic is very clear when she makes calls. She also gave the charging case 2 thumbs up. There are 2 things that really stood out to her about the charging case: 1. The light indicator inside tells you how much charge the buds have and the option for charging with usb. Of course she loves that she hardly has to charge them since the charge will hold for about 30 hours! The only con that she mentioned was that the buds will disconnect if you switch apps. Overall, she highly recommends the JLAB earbuds

Awesome entry level gaming laptop

This is an awesome gaming laptop! You can really see the advantage of having an SSD with this laptop because it loads very quickly. The design of this laptop is different than other gaming laptops that exists. It is much thinner and lighter than others. It is also not as bulky and heavy. The keyboard has red back lighting and the WASD keys are outline with red so that they can easily be found during gaming. The keys are extremely quiet when typing and there is little feedback. The track pad works decent but I would recommend getting a mouse to use while gaming or working on it. The screen is full HD and offers great colors. It is one of the better screens I have seen on a laptop. Another great thing about the screen is that it is anti-reflective which in my opinion makes a huge difference.
Last and most importantly is performance. This PC was built for gaming and in order to handle games the hardware must be very good. Although the internal components can be upgraded to better and faster ones, the components that it comes with performed very well. The graphics card is also one of the better ones. This laptop has an awesome cooling system and great ventilation. Even after gaming for an hour or more on it I never really even heard the fans kick up to high. There is no doubt that this laptop can handle any of today’s popular games with the hardware that it comes with. Last part of performance is battery life. It is not expected to have all day battery life as it is a gaming laptop but if you are on the go and not gaming you can get 4-5+ hours depending on your settings. For the power it has to offer I would not complain about the battery life.
Overall I think the Acer Nitro 5 is a great gaming laptop. I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking to get into gaming but is on a budget.

Step into virtual reality with this Oculus Rift S PC-powered headset. The advanced optics produce a sharp display with bright, vivid colors, and Oculus Insight tracking removes the need for external sensors to convert movements into virtual reality. This Oculus Rift S PC-powered headset has a fit wheel that secures the headset with a quick twist.

The whole family loves playing with the Oculus Rift! It was very easy to set up. In fact, with my supervision, I had my 11 year old son set it up on his computer. Once you have it connected on your computer you will need to download the Oculus app. Once you have everything set up, it will take you through a tutorial to help you become acquainted with the controllers and your play area. Let's talk about the hardware. Don't be fooled by the bulky looking headset, it is quite light on your face. My son wears glasses and he didn't have any issues wearing the headset. The controllers are very intuitive and easy to use. My only complaint with the whole Oculus is the wire that connects the headset to the computer. No one in my family complained about the length, my complaint is that after a week the wire started to kink. I am worried that it will stop working after a while. We love the amount of games available in the Oculus library, there is something for everyone. This is our first venture into the VR world and we love it. If you are looking for an easy to use and good quality VR system for your computer then I recommend the Oculus Rift.

Includes bonus mini motorized tool for extra cleaning power on hard-to-reach areas. Cord-free, hassle-free, powerful suction.

We love this Dyson cord-free vacuum. To begin with, it is very easy to take out of the box and very simple to set up. The vacuum will need to be charged for 3 hours prior to using. We love all the extra accessories/attachments that it comes with. They are all very easy to change out. The main reason why I got this Dyson was to clean our hardwood floors that we have in the kitchen. After charging we went to work on the kitchen and it picked everything right up, we didn't have to give it multiple pass overs. The suction on this Dyson is definitely very good, which is not a surprise. The end of the attachment has a nice velvet like brush which ensures that the floor won't be scratched. The vacuum glides very nicely on the floors and you can maneuver the head very easily around corners. Once we were done with the hardwood floors it had enough juice to change the attachment and use it to vacuum our stairs. It also did a fabulous job on the stairs. We love that it is wireless because we can take it all over the house and we also plan to use it on our cars. My wife and I love that it isn't very heavy, so the kids will be able to use it to help out around the house. I was a little hesitant to get it because of the 30 minute run time, but it is plenty of time to get the floors clean because as I said earlier you only have to do one pass over. If you are in the market for a vacuum that is versatile and has great suction, then you need to consider the Dyson V7 cord-free vacuum.

Keep your head in the game with this Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 audio system. The SuperAmp audio controller is compatible with the PlayStation 4 Pro and standard, and the headset can be used alone with any 3.5mm jack. This Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 audio system brings comfort and audio quality together for long nights of action.

If you are a serious gamer or just love to have top of the line equipment for your gaming, you need to look into getting these Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2. I enjoy gaming, but my son is a fanatic, so we both provided feedback for this item. To begin with the packing is really nice, it lets you know that you are getting a nice piece of equipment. Out of the box it can look a little intimidating, but if you take the time to follow the directions it really isn't difficult to setup at all.My son wears glasses and was really looking forward to him enjoying the ear cushions and boy did he ever. He said by far they are the best ear cushions he has ever had with his glasses. In retrospect this feature may be bad as he will be gaming longer than he needs to be. My problem with previous headsets is that they would get hot and sweaty around my ears, but the Turtle Beach make a big difference in keeping them cool.
To fully enjoy this headset, you need to download the Audio Hub to utilize the SuperAmp. The sound clarity that comes through these are simply mind blowing. My teenage son loves that he can stream his music and enjoys changing the color on the amp. Because I can now hear all the little sounds that I was missing on before with previous headsets I feel like my gaming has gotten better. Many people have complained about the wires, but it all depends on your setup. Our PS4 is connected in our media room, so all of the wires are actually behind us as we play. If you are really into gaming you need to have these Turtle Beach Elite Pro2, my son and I really recommend them.
