Love these things

I had a few of my bulbs go out at home and decided to make the jump to smart lighting. I have been geeking out ever since. One of the biggest issues for me with these things is they are addicting and wanting to swap every bulb in the house. I have gone a little crazy with it. Motion sensors in certain rooms are very convenient automatically turning on when someone enters and turns off automatically so I don't worry about someone leaving lights on. I put multiple lights in the bedroom and set them to turn on at a certain time. Then as it gets closer to bedtime, they change scenes to a sunset and slowly fade out. So many possibilities. Since this is considered an Internet of Things device, I segmented my home network to isolate them from it. While it did cost extra for the equipment, I feel it is necessary to separate them from my home pc's. Philips does make it very easy to update the firmware in the devices from their app and would highly recommend that you keep them up to date.

I love these cameras so much that I have removed my wired cameras and replaced them with these. They are very easy to setup and don't require me to do port forwarding to access them remotely. The battery life is surprisingly good. I have had them running for a while and the battery is still at 95%. Recording to the cloud makes it easy to see and save what is going on. I am planning on grabbing a couple more for the house as well as install them at my parent's house.

My wife originally wanted a Keurig, but I am still traditional in grinding my own beans and making more than 1 cup at a time. When I saw this as an option, I thought it would be a great compromise. I was pleasantly surprised. Whether you prefer the old fashion way of brewing coffee or the single cup pods, this is the machine for you. There are so many varieties of the K-Cup available that I catch myself using that part more and more. It is super easy to use. Easy enough for my 9 year old to make hot chocolate without any issues. I like this hybrid machine so much that I purchased one for my mom.

Good While It Lasted

I love 1st person shooters but have been very disappointed over the past few years with every game pushing the player to an online experience. The offline experience was definitely good while it lasted, but as always was easy to beat in a less than two days of play. I purchased this game for 1/2 price, so for the money, it was worth it. I would have been very diasppointed paying full price.

Good Vacuum, but returned it
on December 24, 2016
Posted by: Wusta
from Denver, Co
Verified Purchase:Yes
After reading the reviews, I purchased this vacuum mostly to be used on our hardwood flooring and a couple area rugs. The Vacuum has great suction and powerful motor for the rugs. We only have about 900 sq ft. of hardwood flooring and this became a real pain to get out and use, especially for my wife. Between it having a power cord and a heavy motor/canister it was just too much. If we had more carpet or a bigger area to clean, I might have kept it. Ultimately I returned it to the store and purchased a Dyson cordless which was a lot more ideal for what we had to clean. So if you have a larger area to clean and they power cord and weight is not an issue, this is a good choice. But if you have a small area, this might not be ideal.

If you can get past the price, this is an awesome case. I was hesitant at first spending the money, but after having it for a few hours, I knew the decision to go with this one was right. I love how minimal the case feels. It is not bulky, but definitely protects the phone. I have unfortunately dropped it a few times, but the case protected just like it advertised. It is had a nice grip and ready to hold.

Awesome So Far......

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the headphones to use mostly while traveling, but found I use them a lot more while at work and relaxing around the house. The noise canceling function is very effective. The sounds clarity has been exceptional, minus the bass. If you are looking for a lot of bass, you might want to look elsewhere. For me, it is not a real concern. I am more interested in the clarity of the sounds with moderate bass, than to have it be overwhelmed by it. Compared to other headphone or sound systems I usually listen to music on, I found the Bose allows me to hear more subtleties in the music that I have not previously heard before. Never had any issues with the battery. It gets me through the whole day with plenty left. If I do run out of juice, I just plug them directly into my phone. One issue I have noticed is the Bose connect app for the Android phone does not work very well for me and had to resort to using my iPhone.

It's a nice to have, not a must have.
on March 28, 2016
Posted by: Wusta
from Denver, Co
Verified Purchase:Yes
If it wasn't for the number of Reward Zone Points and gift cards I had, I probably wouldn't have made the purchase. Full retail price for the watch is a bit much given that it will probably need to be replaced in a couple years. Besides the cost, the watch has been a nice addition to my phone. I would say that I use probably 75% of the functionality and is nice for quick little tasks. Making a quick reminder or taking a note and not having to grab my phone for it is very nice. Other than being a little too thick for my liking, the design of the watch is very nice. I bought the watch with the leather strap and went to a local jewerler to get a stainless steel band put on. The Heawei bands are noce, but not for the cost. I was able to get a vver nice band for a 1/4th of the price. But most importantly is the ability for me to change the watch face. I have different faces for different activities. One for casual daily wear, one for fitness and one for dress. Only having the watch for a couple month, I have really grown to like it.

Good Folio Case
on January 4, 2016
Posted by: Wusta
from Denver, Co
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for something that offered some protection for the device, yet looked good as well. So far this folio case has done the job. It has a nice stylish look to it as well as feeing good in the hands while carrying it. Works with the attached keyboard as well. The only down side to it is it does add a seemingly excessive amount of weight to the device. The Surface Pro 4 individually is relatively light weight, but this case seems to make it feel a couple times heavier. Not really enough to steer me away from using it, but it is noticeable.

Excellent for College Student
on August 23, 2014
Posted by: Wusta
from Denver, Co
Verified Purchase:Yes
Perfect for a 1 first year college student. Light weight. Battery life has been good so far. My student loves the ability to use it as a laptop as well as a tablet.
The only issue I have with this device is the choice to use a slow hard drive. With the cost and performance of drives today, HP could of used a better performing disk. The initial boot is a little slow as well as opening application the first time, but once the application is cached, performance is very usable.
So far this seems like a very good purchase.

Simplify your everyday life with the Google Home, a voice-activated speaker powered by the Google Assistant. Use voice commands to enjoy music, get answers from Google and manage everyday tasks.

Does it work with TV?

From my experience, Yes. It depends on the devices you have connected to it. I have a Harmony Hub in the Living Room that Google Home connects to and allows me to control my TV and other entertainment equipment. I also have a Chrome Cast on another TV that is also controlled by the Google Home.

Can Google Home speak French?

According to Engaget, Google Home can speak Canadian French. I apologize, but I am not a French speaker and not sure how French varies. Hope this helped.

How comfortable are these for sleeping? Is there a better model?

I can't say I have slept with them on all night, but I have fallen asleep for a few hours with them on. They didn't bother me at all. But the few times I have fallen asleep with them on, I was sleeping on my back. If you roll onto your sides a lot, they might not work so well for you. As for other models, can't help you much there.
