I bought this speaker on clearance. It paired quickly and sounds good with my small tablet. Wouldn't use it for high quality audio, but for my use its OK.

I wanted more storage available on my tablet and this is the max capacity it'll support. Glad to have it, but I do wish the price would come down on all forms of auxiliary storage.

I've had several tablets and only use "cheap and replaceable" now. On sale, this definitely qualified. I use it for streaming YouTube TV, mainly at bedside. Crisp, clear picture where my laptop had resolution problems via wifi. Sound leaves something to be desired, but I use a Bluetooth speaker and its fine. The included keyboard is a big plus! I'm not real good with touch screen keyboards, so this really helps. Yes, its small but not hard to use - just a little small for regular typing. One finger works fine!

I had to replace my old desktop computer and this one fit my budget. I'm not a gamer, but I do quite a bit of music downloading and photo editing and it works fine for those. I'm not impressed by the memory capacity, but the 1TB of storage is fine. My main complaint is with the CD/DVD drive being vertical rather than horizontal. Its hard to load, and I worry about scratches and fingerprints getting on whatever disc I'm fumbling to snap into it. The case is wide enough they could have used a horizontal mounted drive. In fact, I have an external CD/DVD drive that's horizontal on top of the computer and mostly use it.

Ensure a ready supply of ink with this Epson 410 combo 4-pack. The high-print quality and smudge resistance of its Claria Premium dye color enhance the depth and clarity of photo images and text printouts. The individual cartridges of this Epson 410 combo 4-pack lower waste and cost by letting you replace only the color you need.

Good computer for the price

Verified Purchase:Yes
I got this because of its small size. Three disappointments keep me from giving it five stars. The memory is very small, so I've put in a 32g microSD cart but many items can't be directed to it. Its somewhat slow, and in wi-fi environments other than my apartment its painful how long anything takes to load. And finally, Best Buy didn't have any carrying cases that weren't much too big (and much too expensive)for its small size so I had to order direct from Lenovo. I like the small size and light weight, but don't carry it around like I'd thought I would due to the slow loading speed.

Good printer for my limited use

I don't use a printer very often, but I wanted one that's full featured for when I have different types of print jobs to do. This doesn't have a fax, but that's OK since I don't have a landline. Documents are clear, and photos nicely done ... although perhaps not up to top photo store standards.

This hand-held vacuum has plenty of power and cleans up well. I only wish I'd checked the package to learn it comes with no accessories, like a crevice cleaner, etc., and apparently none are available.

Very good for my needs

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've gone through many computer speaker systems, and for the price this ranks near the best. As I've aged, my hearing doesn't need 5.1 sound, and this simple system is more than adequate. If your computer is your only stereo sound device, you'd probably want better ... but be prepared to pay lots more. As I said, its good, its priced right, and it does what I need.

OK, but nothing great

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought this as a step up in size, only to find out its from the same manufacturer as my smaller tablet. It has the same qualifications and disappointments as the cheaper one. I'm very disappointed at having to push what should be the "on" button several times before getting it to come on (or reboot, which frequently happens). If there is a "next time," I'll go for a brand name, not the house brand or cheapest model.

Enjoy your favorite songs from a CD, AM/FM radio or a Bluetooth-enabled device with this Insignia™ NS-CBBTCD01-B boombox that features a headphone jack for private listening. The 20 station presets ensure you can easily find your favorite stations.
 

(I don's have a CD player in my Transit van.) Is there a car power adapter for this unit? Can I use the Bluetooth feature to play though my Bluetooth enabled radio?

Yes, that's the main reason I bought it.

Will this play an audio file off of a USB thumb drive?

It has a USB jack, and I'm told it will play from a thumb drive but I've never tried it.

Cover your Samsung Galaxy J3 with this ZAGG InvisibleShield screen protector. It protects your smartphone from screen damage caused by some drops and bumps and reduces scratches that occur as the phone is tucked into bags or pockets. This ZAGG InvisibleShield screen protector is hardly noticeable and maintains all touch-screen functionality.
 

One of the reviews says this is hard to put on. Are these screen proctors hard to install?

Yes. My installation attempts were a failure, and I threw the whole thing away.
