Open box, but works great.

Verified Purchase:Yes
We bought this as an open box after the our older model Samsung front loader stopped spinning. We wanted something that would fit on the existing pedestal. The motor in the old unit must have been going for awhile as the new model finishes the quick wash cycle much faster and the clothes come out less damp, leading to less drying time. Not only is our laundry done faster, but I'm sure we'll see some savings on the electric bill.
One note: both the sales associate and the delivery team stated the new model washer wouldn't fit on the old model pedestal. The new pedestal uses clamps to lock the feet in place. This is not accurate. You simply have to remove the adjustable feet from the washer and it is then fastened to the pedestal with using a 3/8" bolt and washer. We simply used the spacer pads and bolts from the prior unit.

Well made braided cable.

I bought this to replace my OEM cable which had frayed about 2 inches from where it connects to the phone. Very sturdy connectors and nice braided jacket. It's a bit stiffer than the OEM cables, but should last much longer. Time will tell.

Easy to use, great battery life.

I purchased this for my wife after an older model finally gave out. This one helps ensure equal brushing time by emitting a vibration every 30 seconds to divide your mouth into four sections with multiple vibrations to signal the cycle is complete. Battery life is long enough to travel for a week without the charger.

Easy Install. Versatile switch.
on January 26, 2018
Posted by: Johnk
from Tampa, Fl
Verified Purchase:Yes
The first thing you need to do if you're going to install a WeMo switch is make sure you have a white neutral wire available. After that the installation is pretty straight forward, but it can be a tight fit in a multiple switch box.
Once the switch is installed and the breaker turned back on, the wifi setup was a snap and the switch showed up right away in my WeMo app. I already had a dimmer switch in the master bedroom and our living room. This switch is controlling our front porch light and the scheduling options are great. I have it set to come on 15 minutes before sundown and to go back off 15 minutes after sunrise.

Great Mount

Verified Purchase:Yes
Perfect mount for my IphoneX. Comes with a large and small sized thin metal plate that attaches to the phone or case. The small plate fits to where magnetic charging should still work (They say it will, but haven't got the magnetic mat yet to test it). The phone stays where you put it whether vertical or horizontal.

Pioneer with CarPlay works great!
on November 28, 2017
Posted by: Johnk
from Tampa, Fl
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was originally looking at an in dash navigation unit for my 2005 Nissan Pathfinder, but decided to save a little money and try a unit with CarPlay where my phone GPS is displayed on the screen. Very happy with the decision.
Install was a breeze. The only downside was with the dash kit I bought. The trim ring sticks out around the edges of the stereo a bit more than I'd like, but otherwise it's a good fit. I mounted the included microphone just behind the steering wheel on the dash. I used an aftermarket panel mount USB cable which I mounted in one of the blank switch plates down below the stereo.
Very happy with the installation and the performance of this stereo. Handsfree works very well especially with Hey Siri. I can easily ask for directions or change playlists by voice command. Besides the built in HD radio I can also stream Sirius or Pandora through my phone. There are separate volume settings for navigation and CarPlay, so when listening to music at the same time as using the GPS the directions aren't overpowering.

Great upgrade to stock speakers

These were a perfect fit for my front doors of my 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. The stock speakers had paper cones and these speakers improved the sound in every way. Bass is much deeper plus added depth through the mid ranges.

Like the cover

I've had several OEM cables where the cable casing has separated right near the plug connections. This cable has a nice woven/braided cover which looks like it will hold up to the flexing which over time caused the other cable casing to separate. Only time will tell.

Nest Protect reliably detects and alerts you to the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide in your home. The alarm speaks to you in a calm, clear, human voice, telling you the location of the danger. It also provides smartphone alerts and battery status updates to help protect your home. This hardwired version is suitable for homes with existing hardwired smoke or CO detectors.

Easy to install and configure
on June 15, 2017
Posted by: Johnk
Verified Purchase:Yes
We realized our old smoke detectors were over 10 years old and needed to be replaced and I decided since we already had a Nest thermostat I'd try out their smoke/carbon monoxide detectors. I had looked at the original version a few years back but waited due to reviews about false alarms, but decided to take a chance on the newer version as the reviews were much better.
I installed two of these, one just outside the master bedroom at the back of the house and the other just outside the front bedrooms and guest bathroom at the front of the house.
Installation was straight forward, turn of the power at the breaker removed the old unit unscrewing the wire caps and connecting the supplied wire plugs for the new units.
After installation we began setting them up. Adding them to the network was also pretty straight forward following the instructions. We also did the alarm test at this point these are definitely louder than the old units we had and I like how the light also functions as a motion detecting night light.
Got everything setup in the Nest app and then did a second test of the alarms this time starting it from the app.
Then since one of the units is right outside the guest bathroom I tried to trick it into a false alarm, running the shower at the hottest setting for a good 20 minutes with plenty of steam coming out the door to the alarm. Nothing but silence.
Very happy with both the install and operation of these units.

Preserve memories with this Olympus TG-4 16.0-megapixel digital camera that captures sharp photos and 1080p videos and lets you share them via Wi-Fi. The rugged design resists water, freezing temperatures, crushing force, shocks and dust for durability.Memory card sold separately.
How do you change the Battery on the Olyumpus TG-4 or the Olympus 860TG?
Spec's do not say rather there is a charger,but is a rechargeable Battery
The TG-4 has a compartment that opens up to access both the memory card and the battery. Replacement batteries are readily available and easy to swap out. There is also an external charger which allows a battery to be charged separate from the camera. I've never owned the 860, but my TG-4 replaced the SW720 and it used the same battery/charging system
