Might be ok for small room, but feature issues
on April 29, 2017
Posted by: KCCavDad
from Brewster, MA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to use in a smallish living room, and maybe was expecting a bit much, as many people said it was good for a bedroom. Maybe, maybe not.
Biggest issue: inputs don't match up to my Insignia TV purchased in 2013 (four years earlier). The TV has a coaxial digital audio output; the soundbar has optical digital audio (also RCA inputs and a headphone jack input). I expected more backward compatibility between Insignia products. Will need to get a digital to analog adapter. (My very new Insignia Roku TV has optical digital audio output, but I didn't buy the soundbar for that TV.)
Maybe related to this: using headphone jack connection, need to set soundbar at full volume and TV at 50% to get reasonable volume. I expected more for 39 watts.
The soundbar does not have volume indicator, not a killer problem, but a shortcoming.
I like the bluetooth connection for playing music from my tablet or phone. That's maybe the only good feature.
Going to keep it because I got it for $45 open box, and hardly worth the hassle of returning it.

Give your black-and-white documents a polished, professional look. The HP 21 cartridge is perfect for low-volume users who want laser-quality text and graphics.

Works as it should

In my experience the original ink cartridges outlast the refills, and in the end the cost per page is probably about the same (only HP would know), but means less hassle having to buy cartridges less often.

Great TV for bedroom
on December 26, 2016
Posted by: KCCavDad
from Brewster, MA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I replaced a prior Dynex 32" TV used in the bedroom for about five years (still working). While the screen size is the same, this one has a smaller frame so it looks smaller and neater, weighs less than half the old one, and of course has Roku built in, a great improvement, making Netflix viewing easy. It's very light and was easy to put into the new wall mount. 720p is plenty good for this use.
The Roku remote requires a bit of learning, and my wife found it a bit challenging at first, but with some guidance has gotten the hang of it. We could not use the FIOS cable box remote as the single remote as with the prior TV (or if it is, it's not easy to figure it out), which is one small downside.

Good microwave for moderate usage
on September 15, 2016
Posted by: KCCavDad
from Brewster, MA
Verified Purchase:Yes
We use the microwave mostly for reheating of small to medium amounts of food, and defrosting. The 1100 watt capability reheats items more quickly than our prior GE spacemaker (800 watts peak) microwave. I haven't tried heating any large items yet, but based on performance so far, I expect it to perform well. The microwave is an attractive stainless steel look, and is fairly compact on the counter top. While we liked the ability of mount the GE spacemaker under the cabinet, this unit does not take up much more room. Aside from something like a large turkey, this microwave should handle most needs.

Great value

Verified Purchase:Yes
Paid about $180 for a 39" TV, a very good value. So far looks great and is fine for my elderly mother, who watches a lot. Would give it five stars, except for experience with prior 39" Insignia TV that this one replaced; two thirds of the picture disappeared at about 30 months. That TV was a replacement under warranty for the initial TV on which the picture went bad. But have had a good experience with some other Insignias/Dynex. I would recommend this for someone looking for value, and does not need a quality name brand.

Good basic mouse

Posted by: KCCavDad
from Brewster, MA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I use this as mostly a basic mouse. It's comfortable and works fine. I use one advanced feature occasionally, the left and right scrolling in spreadsheets, by pushing the wheel left or right. My reason for giving only four stars is that I had the identical mouse previously, and it stopped working correctly after about 18-24 months. It was usable, but frequently did not always register my left clicks, enough so that it needed to be replaced. I think it should have lasted longer.

It's comfortable and works well. It's a mouse - how much do you expect? Too early to say how long the battery life will be.

Good for cleaning pet hair

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this for a second house, where we were using our own hand-me-down vacuum. We have a small but long haired dog (Cavalier Spaniel) that does some shedding, and the old vacuum wasn't getting everything. The first time through with new vacuum, we picked up a huge amount of hair, and other dirt, that the other vacuum just wasn't getting.
Vacuum was relatively easy to set up, just a little tricky a one point. I can't imagine that the high price vacuums would do a much better job. We didn't want to spend a huge amount of money (this cost $140), but want a good cleaning, and the WindTunnel 3 is delivering. This won't get heavy duty weekly use, so we expect it to do a good job for many years.

is inkjet cartridge #21 compatible with HP officejet 5610v printer? What is the color cartridge number?

Doing an online search, like on the HP website, will get you a guaranteed correct answer. Is it that you don't understand that?
