Small Budget, Good Film. Good Concept
on January 23, 2017

Verified Purchase:Yes
Another great small cast, small set film. It's got a very claustrophobic feel and good suspense. The young cast does well and the movie keeps you watching, thinking, and then leaves you thinking about our everyday lives.

No Spoilers. Great performance from John Goodman. Good typical JJ Abrams suspense and plot twists. Small cast makes for great character development.

It's not super-quiet but quiet enough and the cycles do what I need. It drys things quickly and efficiently. What more can you ask? Hopefully it's durable and lasts a long time.

Nice Efficient Washer
on October 10, 2016
Posted by: Carguy1969
Verified Purchase:Yes
After dealing with a front loader for years (the sound of jet engine taking off at spin cycle) this is a nice change. It's quiet, it's quick, it cleans well. The controls are easy to manage and simple to understand. Installation was easy. My kids also like it because it plays a little song when it's done washing rather than beeping. Hopefully they'll last a long time.

Perfect for my needs.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I use this for streaming video and airplay (2nd monitor) so gen 3 is more than enough for me. The video quality form Netflix, MLB, etc. is good and fast. The menu is good and intuitive (typically Apple) - I wish the sleep feature was in the same area as the apps but it's not a major distraction. It's also nice as it's small enough to be portable for work as well. Since all my major work is driven from my mac the older unit is great. If it were completely stand alone I'd look hard at the gen 4 models.

The arrangement of the plugs is good for USB, DC Adapter, and regular plug fits. It's enough for my desk with 2 laptops, external monitor, speaker, shedder, USB connectors for accessories, and room to grow (my desk not so much). It's a good value.

It's Apple OEM. It's a spare. They work. The price is the price and not cheap but don't mess around with knock-offs. Best Buy in stock and great service as always.

The Civil War epic Gettysburg receives the star treatment from Warner with some spectacular results. Image quality is far better than would be expected. The picture, which is framed at the original aspect ratio of 1.78:1 and employs an anamorphic transfer, is nicely detailed with strong colors and excellent detail. The sound is also very impressive. A new 5.0 Dolby Digital is balanced very well between dialogue, sound effects, and music. None of these elements overwhelms the other making for a smart sound mix. Also available is a surround track in French and subtitles in English and French. The big surprise for this title is the number of supplemental features. Of strong interest is a commentary track from director/screenwriter Ronald F. Maxwell, cinematographer Kees Van Oosrum, author James M. McPherson, and historian Craig Symonds. While there are significant gaps between comments (only selected scenes have commentary), this track is still filled with fascinating information, both from the filmmaking and historical perspectives. In addition are two documentaries, the first hosted by actor Martin Sheen and covers the making of this film, while the second, the Oscar-nominated "The Battle of Gettysburg," narrated by Leslie Nielsen, takes a look at the battle in general. Both are fascinating in their own respects, and are complimented with a short "location" featurette with additional footage taken on the set. Finally rounding out this fine disc are the theatrical trailer and television spots, plus filmographies for some of the cast and the director, a battlefield map, and some additional interviews with the cast and crew. If there is one complaint about this DVD, it's the reluctance of Warner to use two discs for longer movies. At four-plus hours, most studios would split the movie over two discs, but in the case of Gettysburg, a DVD-18 has been used, meaning the movie is split over two sides, each with two layers, possibly creating problems with handling. Still, that is a small complaint for such a nice overall package.

It's historically accurate. It's well acted. It's long - approaching 4 hours. But at the price it was in the bin and being a history buff it's a good deal.

Good Value and In Stock.

I needed a 3ft but they only had the 4ft in stock, No problem - just an extra loop. The category 6 cables are the ones you want if your internet feed exceeds 100Mbs. Mine does and I get a clean 170+ through this cable to my gaming PC. They have all lengths and I have a 20ft going to a NAS in the same room (since I can't use wifi for it). Good buys. 5e works for most applications but if you have the speed available spend the money.

This ground loop isolator integrates into the OEM system of your vehicle to eliminate ground loops for quality audio reproduction.
 

Does this device need power? I can't see the specs to see the power voltage and how to connect.

There's no external power source. It connects in-line and has a filter loop inside that gets rid of the ground loop. It's old school and works great. When you're sound source and your amplifier are separate but on the same power connection you can get ground loops through analog connections without having a bad ground. This fixes it.

DeLonghi EC155 Pump Espresso Maker: Make quality espresso beverages, such as cappuccinos and lattes, at home with this espresso maker, which includes a jet frother to heat and froth milk.
 

Does this come with a jug for steaming milk, or do I need to buy that separately?

You'll need to buy one.

Fitbit Charge HR Wireless Heart Rate + Activity Wristband: This heart rate and activity tracking wristband is built to capture your movements and health patterns all day long. Easily monitor your heart rate so you can maximize your workouts, learn about your sleep quality and monitor progress on your goals.
 

HR Fitbit

i submitted a question asking why My Fitbit needs to be charged daily, I already had it replaced.The answers submitted said to charge daily. This defeats the purpose of wearing daily. It stays fully charged for 12 hours and then says medium battery Then next twelve hours goes to low battery.
Really it's all about how much of the features you use and how often it syncs. I have almost all the features running except text and call notification and I get 2 days between charges. If you disable all the syncing and the resting heart rate monitor you will get 4+ days with it. Advertising 5 days battery life is puffery at it's best. If it sat on a manikin's wrist with no bluetooth on you might get to 5 days. One day seems pretty extreme though. I charge every two days whether it needs it or not because the battery use varies based upon activity.

Constructed from aluminum material, this Insignia™ NS-PCHD235 enclosure helps protect your 2.5" Serial ATA hard drive against damage, allowing safe external use. The plug-and-play design facilitates setup.
 

what is 2.5 inch?

is that the actual disc size? or the housing that contains the disc. my housing measures 2.75. not sure the disc size. the description on the housing doesnt state the size. as well doesnt state sata or ata. does state HDD.
It's the housing. It accepts standard SATA (serial ATA) 2.5" drives - either SSD or spinning. The enclosure is slightly wider than the drive so it slides in easily.

How many GB of storage does the device have?

This is an empty enclosure and you fit any standard 2.5" hard drive or SSD into it. It comes with the USB cable and the SATA adapter (in the front pannel) to connect the drive to your system. It's bus powered so you don't need any power cord.

My hard drive doesn't slide into the enclosure easily. Should I return my product?

I bought this product for my Macbook Pro hard drive, and I can't get the hard drive into the enclosure easily. I don't want to force it. The peg on the side of my hard drive runs into the rib on the inside of the enclosure, and it won't slide easily in. This is only the case on one side of the enclosure. Is my enclosure defective, and should I return it to the store?
Sometimes laptop drives still have the factory spacers on the sides to fit into the assembly. You should be able to unscrew them from your old drive (2 screws each side) and then it should fit. It will slide in easily with a small bit of open space on each side if it's correct.
