Great Steam Cleaner!!

I have used various steam cleaners and I have to say that this one is the easiest to use and the most versatile. It is easy to assemble and will be up an running in no time. One of the nicest features is that not only will it do floors but also has a hand-held feature where you can clean wall tile and I've recently used it to clean spots out of the carpet in my car. There are a number of attachments you can use in hand-held mode for various situations. As for using it on floors it has different pads depending on if you are on tile or wood. I've used both and have to say it does an outstanding job on both. You can easily adjust the amount of steam from the handle. The other steamers have been donated and this is the keeper!

More than just a keyboard!
on September 21, 2017
Posted by: LSNerd
from Lees Summit, MO
I usually look at a keyboard as a necessary evil to input data. The Craft has changed my mind. First off this is a slick streamlined keyboard that has a feel that is solid with a reflection of high quality. Rather than pair with the included dongle I opted to pair via Bluetooth. Connecting was simple and straightforward. One of the first features I noticed was the lighted keyboard is only illuminated when your hands are in proximity of the keys. There is an included cable so you can charge the keyboard easily. A bonus for some is that it is compatible with both Windows and Macs. Another feature that stands out is a knob on the upper left hand side. This ingenious little device performs a host of features depending on what application you are running. Play around with it and see what it does. It even can control the volume on your device. Another very handy feature for me is that I can connect it to multiple computers at the same time. There are three buttons that allow me to quickly switch between my desktop and Surface without missing a beat. No more multiple keyboards!! As for typing with it, the keys are solid and it does not have the loud clicking some keyboards have but has an excellent tactile fell. It is very comfortable to type on. Using functions like caps lock or num lock will display the setting on your screen so you can easily see if it is on or off. The keyboard has an aluminium casing so it has a very solid feel! m extremely happy with this keyboard which is something I don't think I have ever said about a keyboard.

Even when you're not in a hurry

Normally I associate Keurig with needing a cup of coffee in a hurry and that is what you get. Rather than brewing an entire pot so you can have a good cup on your way to work I simply drop a pod in and within a minute I have a great tasting cup of coffee. You can easily change the strength of your cup so it's no longer one size fits all. It has a nice footprint so it won't consume a large amount of your counter space. In the past I would only use my Keurig when I only had time or needed a single cup of coffee. Now I may brew several cups in a row. No waste of brewing too much coffee!

I bought this to go in the bar area for the occasional heating up of dips etc. Very simple to use and works as expected. Boiled a full pot of water in under 2 minutes. Easy to adjust the temperature and it is instant. The only thing that I wasn't expecting was the fan when it's in use. No biggie as it shuts off when the unit is not in use. I now want a full induction stove!!

Beyond Expectations
on August 7, 2017
Posted by: LSNerd
from Lees Summit, MO
After getting my 4K TV it seemed logical to look for a disc player to go along with it. LG TV and an LG 4K player. First off, there is very little you have to do to get up and running. Plug in the HDMI cable, plug it in, connect to the internet (wired or wireless) and you're ready to go. As with any device of this type the first thing I did was go online and check for an update. Took about three minutes and I was ready to play a disc. Bought a 4K movie today just for this purpose. The controls on the player are easy to use and the remote is straight forward. First thing I noticed was how quiet the drawer was when it opened. Put the disc in and a few seconds later the movie was playing. The 4K movie loaded faster than my regular Blu-Ray or even a standard DVD player. Picture quality was what you would expect from a 4K setup; crisp and clear! It does have Netflix and YouTube built in and I believe others can be uploaded at a later time. Overall it is a sleek, fast quiet operating machine that has excellent picture output. Well worth it!!

Great Idea but....
on July 28, 2017
Posted by: LSNerd
from Lees Summit, MO
As someone who has a number of security cameras around the house mostly outside the Circle 2 looked interesting. As I later realized one of its biggest assets is also one of its biggest drawbacks.
The camera pretty much looks like an eye. About the size of a fist and very solid. Once you install the app on your mobile device, I have an iPhone, configuration is very simple and getting the camera up and running was straightforward. The quality of the image is very good. I had it setup indoors and from your phone you can zoom by pinching the screen. It does record and gives you options of when to record or to not record at all. Remember when I said its strong suit is also its weakness well being that it is wireless it will need to be charged which means you don't want to put it in a place you can't easily get to it. This seems to be quite the inconvenience. I do not know how long the batteries will last but if you had multiple cameras this could be a hassle. There are extension cords to leave them connected to power at an additional cost. Seems to kind of defeat the purpose. Overall these would be good in a nursery or apartment but in a home where you want to do serious surveillance these may not be the best option. Great quality, good looking but limited in their application.

Game On!

I am not a big PC gamer but this device can not only game with the best of them but can take care of my work related times as well. The look of the device is pretty awesome! Unless you knew better you would not know it is an HP device as they have forgone the HP logo for the OMEN logo. I have the 15" display which is crystal clear but not 4K. I watched 4K videos and they looked stunning so no miss there. The full size keyboard and separate number key pad is a nice feature. Everything is labeled well and most additional features are function key press away. The sound is amazing and very immersive. As for making connections, there are connections for a mini display port, HDMI, and both USB and USB Type C port. 1 TB of storage, a gen 7 i7 processor and 8 Gigs of memory mean that it is ready to take on just about anything.

This is one of those games the family would play together for hours. Even now that the kids are grown with their own kids it is still a family favorite. I have found myself killing hours at a time playing again and it is still just as much fun. I preordered it when I heard it was being released and glad I did. Great family fun!

Well worth the investment!
April 15, 2011
I recently upgraded my desktop for my business to a 6 core AMD Phenom II processor and figured my 4 GB of memory would be enough. Although performance is amazing it just didn't seem to be where I thought it should be so I swapped out the four 1GB sticks for four 2GB sticks. Of all that's holy this things screams now! I have yet to come close to maxing out memory or CPU utilization even while burning a DVD, streaming video from the net and working on a presentation; 8% for CPU and 19% for memory.

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5Ditch the cable company's modem
By LSNerd
from Lees Summit, MO
After finally getting frustrated with the modem provided by the cable company I decided to get my own. Of course they asked why since I wasn't paying to lease the one I had. Well their own speed tests confirmed I had throughput of about 9Mbps on a good day when I'm paying for 20Mbps service. I swapped out the old modem with the Motorola, called them with the MAC ID and was up and running in a matter of minutes. Of course the first thing was to perform a speed test, the same one that I used before the swap. 20.6Mbps! Not only is my internet connection substantially faster but the built in WiFi has a better reach than my previous router AND the home network runs faster since I've eliminated a piece of equipment; stand alone router. My home network is used quite extensively too; 3 cell phones, 2 ipads, two laptops, 1 desktop, 2 home servers, 2 gaming consoles, 4 Blu-ray players, 1 stereo and a security system. This router/modem hasn't missed a beat yet!

9 month update
February 10, 2014
In all fairness I feel it is necessary to post an update to my previous post. First, 90 days after I installed it the WiFi would drop and not reconnect until i rebooted the modem. This normally would be that big of a deal except my home automation and alarm system run off the WiFi connection. When WiFi is lost for an extended period the security system will alert me with a continuous beeping until I deactivate it; even at 3 in the morning! Took it back and exchanged it for another thinking I may have just gotten a bad apple. Unfortunately that was not the case. Four months later the newer one started doing the same thing. There were times even rebooting would not solve the problem. As nice as it would have been to have one device that did the job of three, this was not it! Even the wired connections were beginning to run slow. I had upgraded my Time Warner to the 100Mbp package and was getting about 25 in most cases. Back to the store (yes I got the extended warranty) and I decided to go back to two devices. I went with the SB6141 which is basically the same device without wireless and routing. Plugged my Dlink DIR-655 wireless router into the 6141 and haven't looked back. The concept of an all in one device is great but the execution was well below expectation. One other thing, the interface used to configure the modem is basic at best. Most features are either on or off and some you just can't configure. Overall I would not recommend this product after using it for just under a year.

Nothing puts a vacuum to the test quite like a home with pets. That's why the BISSELL® Pet Hair Eraser® was developed from the ground up by pet parents for pet parents. Whether it's shedding season for your dog or your cat tracks kitty litter all over the house, this revolutionary vacuum is designed to make cleaning up after pets and the people who love them a breeze—from beginning to end. Say goodbye to hair wrap with its Tangle-Free Brush Roll, remove embedded hair everywhere with specialized pet tools, help capture allergens and eliminate odors with the SmartSeal™ Allergen System, and when you're finished cleaning, enjoy a hands-free tank empty with our patented Cyclonic Spooling System™.BR>
Technically, how does the "Eraser" upright suction compare to Dyson and Shark? Please be specific. Please use a common comparable medium such as half full or 90 percent full. "Empty" or "new" would not be helpful. Thank you.
I have owned both the Dyson Animal and the Bissell and found the suction to be equal to the Dyson. It does not lose suction even when it is 3/4 full. I have a smaller Shark unit so I don't think that would be a fair comparison. I also have a Kirby that can suck the chrome off a bumper as long as the bag isn't more than half full. The Eraser has a few feature I like including not clogging, easy empty canister (I haven't had to dig anything thing out) and the brush roller that doesn't get string or hair wrapped around it. I don't know how it does that but that has been a problem with every vacuum I've owned.

What's better Plasma or LED
I have 1 Plasma and 6 LCD TV's and have had really no problems from any of them. The plasma seems to have a slightly more vivid picture that may be simply because of the settings. It appears that LCDs have progressed to the point that the huge gap between them and Plasmas has been greatly closed. After recently buying a new LCD I just didn't see the justification forthe extra spend for a bedroom tv that was a plasma.
