Let me make it clear, this device helps manage your snoring. It does not make my snoring stop-- it makes me conscious of my position so that it makes me alter the way I am lying down. It really does help but the best way to understand this device is for you to understand what it really does.
I am a skinny guy with the snore of a war ship. I am really loud when I sleep on my back When I put this on, when I sleep on my back for a good amount of time, it gives me a jolt so that I am aware that I am on my back which is my loud snoring position, so it reminds me to roll to my side. Does it make me sleep better? It depends. The vibration on the device is really strong that it can be disruptive. It is the same as my lady waking me up to make me roll to my side. So it does help manage the snoring which is actually much better for the people who can hear my snore. Honestly, I think this device is more made for the people around me, not me necessarily.
It is a good device. I use a CPAP machine myself. With that, it really helps me sleep soundly while it stops me from snoring while I wear it. The downside is, a CPAP machine requires a power supply and it is a lot to carry. I do not carry my CPAP machine when I travel because it is not convenient.
This is where I believe this sleep snoring band helps me. I simply slip it in any bag and I can go anywhere and have a snoring management solution. It is where my CPAP machine cannot go.
Also, this device takes some getting used to. So when I mentioned earlier, does it make me sleep better?-- it depends. It depends on the people who I sleep with, it depends on how it jolted me in the middle of my dream, it depends how long I stay sleeping on my side.
It is a good device. I like it. Just do not necessarily expect it to stop your snoring or to make you sleep better. Think of it as your wife placed in a 7-inch device. It will help you rollover when you need to.

I don’t call it just a microwave—I call it a cooking machine! I think I use it more for other things that just microwaving. Well, besides the pretty design (it really looks good on my counter), basic microwaving is easy. It has so many settings—the good thing is, the controls are not-too-difficult to figure out. I know I know a good deal about tech, so I consider me above the curve in navigating appliances and gadgets. My test was for my lady though; I guessed that it will take her a bit of time to understand the settings—such as how to defrost, or to adjust power settings. She did not have any issues at all. She was more excited to play around with it because the screen was informative. I won’t even mention anything about microwaving—it’s a basic function and I felt confident in its capabilities. I airfryed a fish (yes a fish) and it came out great at 20minutes without drying it up the inside. And frozen French fries. Cooking broccoli on it was a breeze too!
So my stove has been neglected for a while. With busy work weeks, this Breville is our go-to for food preparation. It lessens our need for counter space given the multiple functions, and at the same time, makes our counter space look pretty too. Even our visitors liked it. It’s great to have something so versatile and easy-to-use at the same time. I recommend!

I own a couple of soundbars, all on the higher end. I'm a stickler for sound quality, that's why I would rather spend more on better sounding ones. This sound bar though is pretty good for its size.
1) It is compact. It sits perfectly under my 55 inch. 2) Because of it's size, it is easy to install. Two screws on the wall, hung it up and there it is. It also has an installation guide sheet-- there was no way I can fail putting it up. 3) sound quality is more loud than it is crisp. It's not a high-end sound bar. I won't expect it to make me hear every crunch clearly but it does the job pretty well on a small room. It is loud enough, and of course way better than any TV speakers. I stepped out to go to the kitchen, maybe 20 feet away through a hall and at mid volume, I can hear my bedroom rumble.
Do not expect head over heels on this system; there is a lot that it is not. But for a small compact soundbar, it does the job. This is such a good value soundbar.

I admit, I lost a little bit of patience having to run wires all around my backyard just to install these speakers. In a wireless era, I was questioning myself, why do I have to run wires across my lawn just to experience music that I can probably hear from wireless systems.
The thing is, I was wrong in many ways and I will try to explain it the best way I can: 1) Even my high-end wireless speakers do not sound this good! Even for wireless speakers that have great full sound, those speakers have nothing on this system that has an unspeakable balance of smoothness and crisp. I do not know if I even made sense there. I played George Michael, Queen, Sting, Cypress Hill and Marshmello—there is something in the delivery that sucks me into the music and makes me feel every little detail of the tunes. 2) it is a 2.1 system but the way it engulfs my space is amazing. It has a MASTERY of what AMBIENT music is--- I tried putting a song in low volume—the music is everywhere without compromising the details of the song. I was listening to it and my lady was staring at me because she said, I looked like I wanted to cry; maybe I did want to. I love music and I am so happy this thing knows how to deliver how I want my music to be. 3) I also have other wired setups—but this one has me wowed. There is a certain conviction with the way music is thrown on a wired setup, we know that. This one though has some sort of presence. It is surround but it has a balance of level on different spots of my backyard. It’s like it knows what to let you hear wherever you are on the floor; and it makes it sound consistent. I know it is a high-end system. But not all high-end systems deliver, thus my disbelief on certain brands. After really experiencing Sonance, on an open space, I am a believer. It is worth all my frustration with the wires. I want everyone to experience what I hear with this system. Looks like I will be having more parties at home!

Way more than just a pretty item on my countertop!
on October 2, 2019
Posted by: DarR
from Los Angeles CA, USA
I used to think a toaster is a toaster—not anymore. This toaster is not just a toaster. I can do more with this, heat up a lot of different items and it’s easy enough to get items in and out of it. I had to throw away my compact toaster, because it was only used for quick heat ups and some bread slices. That previous toaster was compact but often dirty, so I ended up having an item on the counter that only takes up more space than it is actually functional. This Chefman toaster maximizes my counter space given the flexibility of items that I can heat up with it. It has almost the same footprint as my old toaster and this one looks really pretty too!
Toasting then airfrying all in an hour—no problem! I placed a whole cooked chicken in there that was out on the table for a while, and I get that nice crisp on the skin in a matter of minutes. I placed a tray of frozen French fries in the basket, and airfried them easily!
Anything I mentioned though seem big but are all just minor for me. What’s really is great about this--- it makes toasting OTHER items VERY SIMPLE. Sure it has a recipe book that comes with it—honestly, I don’t know if I will ever make those. But me having the ability to be creative and toast anything WITH EASE, given the inside space of the toaster, the effortlessness of cleaning it, and the dials being SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND, makes me, my lady and other members of the household very happy. And to me, that’s what matters the most! 1 million stars!!

I have the usual coffee pod machine at my home. This machine does what a regular coffee maker does and more. I am not talking about functions—I am talking about how this machines MAKES ME want to do more.
First, let me warn you, from a regular non-cooking savvy, non coffee aficionado type of person, this machine can be overwhelming. It is—the knobs, the look, the components of the machine. I did not want to touch it at first. The instructions manual was not that much helpful too—to be honest, the machine itself just has a lot of components—it WAS scary.
However, I started watching a youtube video on how things like these work, then I became more conscious of how my regular Starbucks barista does my white mocha—this machine is NOT complicated at all! It does have a steeper than usual learning curve but, hey, now I want to do my own coffee.
It has so much flexibility on what you can do. Again, let me be clear, it is not just the functionality of this machine. In fact, I just ordered ingredients on how to make my own white mocha. It makes me want to do my own and even serve coffee to my household.
At the cost of this machine vs. the amount of coffee my GF and I buy—in two months I break even. In my third month, I am drinking good coffee for “free!”
It is not a simple tool and will require some knowledge but once you unlock those skills, man, Starbucks will be a thing of the past!

I think this speaker is a steal. It is not a high-end brand or has exceptional audio quality but the value of it is the winner.
It is loud, it has good weather proofing and it functions like most Bluetooth speakers plus more. The music itself does not have that much crisp and the bass needs a little punch on the real low-end (think Cypress hHll type of bass). Do not expect Bose audio quality-- however, it compensates on a lot of other things.
It is not light but is easy to transport. It has the stroller handle and the wheels that roll it are of good quality.
It has a microphone with it. So it can be a good PA. The microphone itself is a little subpar—so don’t judge the vocal quality with the included mic. The mic is not bad but it can be better. So, I tried a Shure beta mic with it and it makes a lot of difference. For karaoke purposes, this one does the job.
Bluetooth connectivity is easy. And I do not hear crackles or drops even at a 20 feet distance. I did not try going further but I don’t think it will be a problem.
It has good battery life at least for my usage. At 3 hours, it was still at 1 bar on the meter. I am not sure if I just did not charge it well, but I don’t think I will use it for over 3 hours unplugged. (plus, I do not have over 3 hours availability to keep the music at a considerable volume up so I don’t have the chance to really test the battery yet).
Overall, it is a good PA speaker. I can use it for speaking engagements, regular Bluetooth music (especially outdoors!) and karaoke. For most users, this one is all you need.

I have a different brand pressure cooker before this and I can say, this one is way better. My other one was good too but this one already has certain features that make it an awesome standard for a multi-cooking machine.
First of all, this one has multiple functions. I do not have a lot of counter space, so having just one pot to cook rice, airfry and pressure cook is very important. The size is just right. The 8-quart size is perfect for larger meats. I purchased a pressure cooker before because I wanted to be able to cook frozen meats. However, since ribs off the shelf are usually long, I have to manage cutting it up in more parts. For the typical 6-quart cooker, it is hard to fit a slab of ribs. With this one, I only have to cut the ribs with less pieces, so the size is perfect. Controls are easy, it’s like the new luxury cars with that dial. Pretty straightforward. Build and design looks sturdy too so it’s something nice I can keep on top of my counter. So I tried the airfryer—sweet potato fries. Washed the potatoes, cut ‘em up and placed them in the basket. Super simple—and the kids loved it. Plus, no guilt from serving them "fried" food-- it's healthier! I also cooked some ribs soup. Placed a whole slab in there, cut up in 3 equal parts, frozen. In 45 minutes, the meat was falling off the bones. Everything is so simple. And you can say, it is a pressure cooker, so that’s expected. But what I liked about this one is, when I was depressurizing the container, the top valve hardly spewed out any liquid. My other pressure cooker spills liquid everytime I depressurize the lid. This one was hardly did! Cleaning was easy too. I think that’s another good thing. Plus, you can order some other accessories for other types of cooking. I am not a good cook at all. I do not even know how to cook before experiencing a pressure cooker. So pressure cookers are a great help to me. But this one, it is not just a typical pressure cooker. Just the airfryer combo is already a huge plus. I cannot imagine how else I can be a better cook with its other functions, that I have not even used. I just know, this will make me the new star of the kitchen.

I am not a fan of dashcams except after using this device. I thought using dashcams just add another device to charge and manage with my car-- I was wrong. This dashcam made it so easy for me to install and use it.
The device itself is nicely made. The build quality of the camera, the screen, and the lens is solid. I was worried that with the California summer, and the camera being left on the windshield, that it can melt or destroy the device. So far, at maybe 150 degrees in the car and the camera left there for hours, it is still fully functional.
The display is small but is easy to read. I wear glasses and sometimes I pull objects back to read them. I know I am used to 5 inch device screens, but menus and the 2.5 inch screen itself is not a hassle to look at and operate.
The phone pairing and app installation is FAST. I have paired a lot of devices on my phone, this is so far the easiest to download and pair, from app to device pairing. Detection is fast and I only needed to press a couple of button presses and everything is working: Live view, file management, etc.
Videos are crisp. I use the the 1080p 60FPS setting. It’s clear—I can easily recognize faces on the recording and plate numbers from a good distance from the front of my car --and the framerate is fantastic!
The internal battery does not last at all. Maybe an hour tops? But that’s why it has the adapter. Good thing the adapter provided has good length so I can easily route it away from sight. And of course, luckily I have a car lighter socket in front of my other car.
Overall it is a good device. I saw some good features such as Alexa and automatic emergency calls and instant recording on impact. Hopefully I would not have to use those features. This should be a great device to use for offroad trails, more than just for emergency situations.

I have used and owned a lot of headphones. Some of them are high-end with good features, some of them are basic headphones. This one so far is the best. 1) It is VERY comfortable. I will not be able to stress this enough, the second most important to headphones is the comfort. Any good sound is useless if you cannot enjoy wearing them. This one is very comfortable to use. Oh, I forgot my sport headphones one time and ended up using these while I was on the treadmill-- it stays in place and is actually more comfortable to use than my minimalist sport headphones. I was afraid sweat will ruin the cushion-- it seems to hold up well while wet-- I just have no idea how it will hold up in time. But still-- VERY VERY VERY comfortable! 2) The sound quality is great!! Seriously. Extra bass? no problem-- you will really feel the thump on your body without sacrificing the other levels of the sound such as the mids and the highs. Sound is so clear and crisp-- I LOVE it. I lose myself in the music every time I put it on. 3) Phone connectivity is clear on phone calls and music. I have not had drops and I have not heard static or skips even being over 20 feet away from my phone. I now use it for remote phone conferences. I like using the phone with it. 4) The touch features are AWESOME. Gestures and tough features to control volume and navigate the playlist (forward and back) are so far the BEST that I have experienced in my ten headphones or so. Although I have a little bit of issues with pressing play and pause (tends to skip or go back), the touch features are still so convenient that the play/pause issue is not much of an issue. And the "mute" button by cupping your hand over is brilliant by the way, Sony. 5) The app is okay. I hardly have time to tweak the app to conform to my listening preferences. My default settings sound great regardless. 6) Noise cancelling, is good. I won't say a lot about this. I don't think any noise cancelling headphones nowadays are messing up. I think all the other features on this headset are waaaay too good to even notice noise cancelling details. I am just glad these headphones are so versatile and pretty too. It's my newest favorite and it seems like I will be using this for a long time!
