Unlike any other trimmer!!
on October 17, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
This trimmer is unlike any other that I have ever used! Right out of the box I plugged it into the charger and it went from 0-100 in a matter of minutes. I do not know the exact time but I believe it was less than an hour. It offers a really nice clean cup shave. The only thing that must be mentioned is that it leaves a little stubble. It was much less then I expected though which is good. It’s about as close to a clean shave as you’ll get without using a razor. My only gripe is that it is very powerful and throws hair everywhere. So expect to be doing a lot of cleaning after. I think this is one of the best trimmers I have used overall when it comes to getting the best shave.

Awesome Apple Watch Charger
on October 15, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
This is a high quality Apple Watch Charger and I highly recommend it as a replacement or just as an extra cable to have. One thing that I immediately liked was the length. It is 4 ft long which is different than apples 3 or 6ft. I find these cables to be either to short or to long but the 4ft is the perfect length. As far as build quality it is above average with its Kevlar reinforced design. I have no doubts this cable will last a long time. The part that connects to the back of the Watch is slightly thicker than the standard Apple Watch Charger. This does not seem to be a problem unless you use an aftermarket dock that requires you to put the charger inside it may or may not fit.

Amazing Monitor!!
on October 11, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
This monitor is the perfect size! It is not so big that you cannot sit in front of it. It is also big enough to be productive. I am switching to this from two 19in monitors to this single monitor. I am also very impressed by the depth of it. The monitor is sleek and skinny. The base for the monitor is circular and takes up a little space on the desk but as long as you have enough regular size desk it will be just fine. I tried to use the monitor with my MacBook but at this time I cannot get it to work. I think it might be operator error though. I plugged my PC into it using all the same chords and adapters and it worked just fine. I wish it was a little higher resolution but I have not complaints as it is still crystal clear.

iPad Pro Keyboard
on October 9, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
I was a little skeptical of this keyboard at first because I had never heard of the brand before. However I was very surprised by how well built an sturdy it really is. The color an aluminum finish match the iPad perfectly. Out of the box it was pretty simple to set up. The one thing I love about it when compared to many other keyboards is that it makes the iPad feel just like the laptop. It opens and closes just like one and allows for use on your lap just a it should. The key travel is decent. I does feel a little cramped but is very easy to type on regardless. My two complaints are that it does not allow you to put a case on the back of the iPad or protection. The way it attaches to the iPad leaves little room for even a glass screen protector. My second complaint is that right after I took it out of the box and typed on it for a couple minutes the “delete” key stopped working properly. It is squeezing and only registers a press sometimes. I am not sure if the rest of the keys will start to do this or not at this time.

Great small portable speaker
on September 23, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
For the size you cannot get much better than this speaker. It’s is very small, light weight, and durable. The battery life isn’t the best but considering it’s size it is acceptable. The waterproof design allows you to take this anywhere and everywhere. I’ve never hear a small speaker with such great sound quality. Pairing was very simple with the Bose app and even allows you to use more than one boss speaker at a time. The strap on the back is a nice addition so that it can hook onto a backpack or anything else. It is made out of a rubberized material which I’m guessing is for durability although it is very attractive to cat or dog hair just a warning. Other than that it is highly recommended

Awesome Network Hard drive
on September 14, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
from Tacoma, Wa
The WD my cloud home is a must have for anyone with multiple devices and a lot of data, photos, videos etc. Storage has become very expensive in computers and other devices with faster SSD storage. Myself I have a lot of photos because I am photographer but never have a good place to store them. The one thing I love about this drive is that your data can be access on any computer or device anywhere. As far as setup it was very simple. Simply plug it into power and your router and then go to the website to set it up. I love how it easily integrates with Macs, PCs, iOS devices or anything else you might use. I only have one gripe about it and that is the requirement of a wired connection. I wanted to put the hard drive in a different room than where my server is but I was unable to because it does not work on a wireless connection. In addition to that it cannot be used as a standalone USB drive the only way to use it is plugged directing into your router. Overall it has great build quality and is easy to use.

Awesome gaming Headset!
on August 4, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
This Logitech gaming headset is one of my favorite that I have ever used. The blue digital camo that they come wrapped in looks awesome. The material is soft and my only worry is that it could tear or get snagged over time with heavy use. It also comes with a carrying bag that was convenient to hold the headphones and all of the chords and accessories. I thought it was weird that the boom microphone disconnects but it was very nice because you don't have to use It. In fact it comes with an attachable chord with an inline mic for cell phone use. The sound quality of these headphones is great for there price. The 7.1 surround sounds is awesome but my only gripe is that it only works with PC and not any gaming consoles. However you still get amazing stereo sound when plugged into gaming console. Other then that I love how you can plug them into virtually any console or electronic system. They can even be used for listening to music or whatever you choose. If you're looking for a cheaper but very high quality gaming headset I definitely recommend this one.

Robot Vaccum
on July 19, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
This is an amazing Vacuum although I do have some complaints. I will start with all of the pros. It keeps your house vacuumed all the time and you do not have to do it yourself. Before I got the vacuumed I was worried the battery would die before it cleaned the whole house but what I found out is that it has a dock that it will return to and charge itself. As far as the cleaning it did a pretty good job cleaning my carpeted floor. My complaints are as follows. I consider myself to be a very techy guy and usually do not have to read instructions to figure something out. This is not the case for this vacuum you must read the instructions in order to operate it and take advantage of all its features. I had trouble connecting the app to control the robot and at this time I still have not figure out how to connect it for some reason. I think this is a great product and probably works fantastic but it does not seem very user friendly at least to the average use who would use it. In the following weeks after messing around with it i am sure I will figure it out and be able to use it to its full advantage.

Very High Tech Mouse!
on July 1, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
This Logitech anywhere mouse is one of the coolest mice I have ever seen. Right out of the box I love how easy it is to connect. It has two options for connecting both USB or Bluetooth. It can also be paired with up to 3 computers and there is a button to switch between each computer. A problem with some Bluetooth devices is that when pairing with more than one device they usually don't switch easily this is not the case with this mouse. Logitech Flow is tech that I have never heard of or thought would be possible. It allows you to have multiple computers running and then when you move all the way to the right on one computer it automatically switches to the next. You can also transfer files from one computer to another. I have both a PC and a Mac and this is a very convenient feature and worked seamlessly between operating systems. The scroll wheel is a little funky as you click it down and it is in scrolling mode but click it again and it goes into a free scrolling mode to allow fast scrolling. The only real use I can see for this is getting to the bottom of a page fast.

Toss this waterproof LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker in the pool and watch it float. The crisp audio doesn't stop for snow, dirt or ice, and this Bluetooth-enabled speaker can withstand a drop from 1.2m. The battery of this LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker keeps going for 15 hours, and it charges your phone while it's playing.

Decent Speaker!
on June 26, 2017
Posted by: dlowen
This speaker does one thing very well and that is the fact that it is waterproof. It is amazing for anyone who spends a lot of time on a boat or near water. The durability is decent and I think it can withstand a decent amount of abuse although it feels kind of cheap because its mostly plastic with a metal grill. My biggest complain is the sound quality. It just did not seem to get as loud as It should for a speaker that large. It was enough to but seems like for the price and size it should be louder. The dry box on the bottom is a nice addition but it Is small and would not even fit my iphone 7 plus with a case on it. If you are in need of a waterproof speaker then this is definitely the one to get. If water proof isn't a necessity I would get something that has better sound quality.
