Fun and easy but limited use
on December 28, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I primarily use this Ninja to make single serving smoothies in the morning. I like the included "tritan" cups and drinking lids. I particularly like the 32 ounce cup, which are hard to find. The bowl was merely an afterthought, but I liked using it and made some good food from the included recipe book (which you may not use if you're a cooking guru unlike me). It's also a plus that everything is dishwasher friendly.
What you get:
- Motor base
- Bowl with metal mixing blades and plastic mixing blades (kneading dough)
- 2 24 ounce travel cups
- 1 32 ounce travel cups
- 3 drinking lids
- 1 screw on blade base for travel cups
- Motor base
- Bowl with metal mixing blades and plastic mixing blades (kneading dough)
- 2 24 ounce travel cups
- 1 32 ounce travel cups
- 3 drinking lids
- 1 screw on blade base for travel cups
Like all Ninja products, everything is made of plastic. But that is no knock, these are made of high quality and sturdy plastics. I also like the black and silver look. There are quite a few buttons on the base (from a guy coming from a blender with Low Med High settings) but they all serve a purpose. As a whole, the whole system looks good. The base is a bit tall, but even with the 32 ounce cup locked into the base for storage (I keep a cup on the base for easy access and to eliminate some clutter in my cabinet) it fit on my counter underneath my cabinets.
Using this as I primarily do, making single serve smoothies, this baby is pretty self explanatory. I will say that I am extremely impressed with the blender's capability to pulverize anything. Frozen fruits, nuts, apples all come out smooth and "non lumpy." The bowl on the other hand, took me out of comfort zone. I don't have and have never used a food processor. My guess that this is close to a food processor as you can get. Since I've never used one, I don't know what to do with it offhand, but the included 75 recipe book has lots of fun things to make. I made veggie burgers and quinoa salad and it was awesome. It was really simple to make and use and the finished product is delicious. And dare I say, it was kind of fun. I haven't strayed away from the cookbook, but there's plenty of offerings in there to justify the purchase if you aren't a big cook and want to experiment. What I like most are the various items you can try; there's something different which makes it fun to cook (I'm used to making the same 3 things all the time).
Bottom line is, if you are looking for a "nutribullet" this thing can handle anything you throw at it, and if you are interested in venturing outside of your comfort zone and utilizing the bowl to make new and interesting dishes (using the included cookbook) this is a great device to have. Even if you don't use the bowl attachment, this is a great single serve smoothie maker.

These are great looking socks. I'm proud to wear them. But don't expect to stay warm, they are more like dress socks. But I loved them nonetheless!

Either you love comic book hero movies or you don't. If you do, this is a fantastic addition. I love the story of the "rebooted" (if you can call it that) X-Men and loved this movie as well.

Great action and story, but learning curve online

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love the WWI setting, and I found the campaign to be a great experience. But taking it online was tough, the learning curve is steep and unless you don't have a job/family it will be difficult to get up to par. But with anything, a little bit of time and you'll be just fine. But I would buy this game for the single player campaign alone, the gameplay is tight and entertaining; and the story telling is second to none (as it comes to war games) in my opinion.

Great trimmer! Easy and durable
on November 17, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I used a cheap old hair buzzer for trimming my neck and body hair. It did just fine, but it could only get so close (I didn't have a close trimmer). This Philips Norelco trimmer is fantastic. It's rechargeable, which is a huge plus, no need to plug in, and it comes with a nice bag to store the trimmer and all of the attachments. The "body hair" attachment can be a little rough (it feels like it pulls hair) but it does a great job of getting close to your skin. I haven't used the hair trimmer, because I don't cut your hair, but if you shave any body hair this is a great choice. And you can use it in the shower which for me is easier than sweeping up hair on the floor.

Easiest Way to Experience VR
on November 15, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you have a PS4 and have any interest in VR, you need to get the PSVR. Admittedly, I never once used Vive, Oculus or Samsung VR prior to purchasing PSVR. While I'm a Sony fan, the reason for not buying one of these VR systems was because I didn't have a Samsung phone or VR ready computer. Since I had a PS4, this was my opportunity to enjoy a new videogame experience.
First, the set up. While the plethora of cables seem confusing, the set up process is pretty straightforward and simple. The instructions are easy to follow. But there's a big caveat to the setup!!! You are limited by the cables. Not everyone will experience the problems I have, as it depends on your entertainment setup, but I have a TV above a fireplace and have my receiver/PS4/router/modem, etc. on a stand to the side. I ran my wires through the wall, into my crawl space and back up to where the entertainment system is.
Because of the short PS4 Camera cable, which should be under or above your TV, I had to physically move my PS4 and processing unit away and plug it straight into my TV. This wasn't a big deal on day one, as I was excited to play PSVR. But it wasn't a long term solution. I ultimately bought a PS4 camera extension cable and place the camera under my TV whenever I want to play PSVR.
My other issue regarding setup, which is specific to me, but something to consider, is the requirement for an extra power plug. I literally have an Apple TV, modem, router, Logitech Harmony base, receiver, subwoofer, Xbox One, PS4 and Wii U plugged into my power strip. I had to unplug the Wii U, which is used the least, in order to plug in the processor. Again, you may not have this issue, but given that the PS4 processing unit needs to be in close proximity to your PS4, which needs to be in close proximity to the TV (because of PS4 camera cord shortness) it is something you need to plan for.
The other thing to keep in mind is to take your time in setting it up and going through the menu options to optimize the PSVR settings, it will pay off in the end. I jumped right into playing after hooking the cables up and had difficulties with the tracking system. I also had difficulties setting up the PS Move joysticks. It was the first time I've ever used them and I had to figure out how to set them up too. Not difficult, just takes time.
Second, experience. I was truly blown away the first time I put the headset on and was immersed in a virtual world. This portion of my review is short because no words can sum up that feeling of true audio and video immersion. You really, truly, have to see it to believe it. It's not perfect, maybe one will argue the Vive or Oculus does it better, but I don't care. It is a fantastic experience, even playing the demos.
The only thing I worry about is shortage of games. There's plenty of keep me busy for the time being, but I don't knwo what's coming down the pipeline.
All in all, a must have accessory for any videogame enthusiast.

Great results, but steep learning curve
on November 8, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I have edited videos in the past using GoPro Studio and Windows Movie Maker. I am by no means a movie editing pro or anything close. I've used Adobe Premiere Pro before and found it overwhelming. While I would love to learn how to use Premier Pro, I just don't have the time to dedicate to learning it.
Since the birth of my son (who's 1 now), I have been recording more videos and wanted to do something with them other than sit on my computer or phone. I liked GoPro Studio, but found it difficult to incorporate pictures and use footage from sources other than GoPro (that difficulty could be user error).
I thought Adobe Premiere Elements would be a nice sweet spot. From what I've read, it was a tamed down and easier to use version of Premiere Pro. In a sense it is, but in a sense it isn't. I was able to create a 2 minute video on the "Guided" setting, which does a decent job of explaining the features and how-to of the program, but it wasn't without its share of headaches and trial and error. (I stayed completely away from the Expert setting). It has a "Quick" setting, but I wanted a bit more control over my videos and haven't run it through its paces just yet.
If you've never edited videos before, and don't have the time or desire to teach yourself, this program isn't for you. It's unintuitive to the uninitiated. It has some powerful tools and effects, but despite Adobe's best efforts, it's still difficult to learn. It's not intuitive to the normal person.
The performance depends on your machine. I have a relatively new Acer R 15 inch laptop with i5 processor with 8 GB RAM and HDD. I found the computer slowing down considerably when using this program. I had to shut down every window and background program to have it perform smoothly. But mostly any slow downs occurred when importing and exporting media. I'm guessing this is maching dependent. I only mention this in case you have an older or budget machine. I don't think you need a top of the line computer, but you'll need something with oomph.
Bottom line is that if you want to edit videos and you are willing to put the time in, this is a program that will help you create amazing results. But in the beginning, be prepared for a steep learning curve. Once you learn how things work though, it's extremely rewarding.
I would also recommend a training guide or how to book. I think running through an example to learn the programs' features to be the quickest way to get up to speed.

Easy to use and fast
on November 2, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
I'm not a computer network guru, I can't really tell you about the different bands, speeds, or the internal processor of this router and how it relates to others on the market, I can just speak to real world experience.
First, it's super easy to set up. Screw in the antennaes, plug it into the power outlet and connect your modem to the WAN port. And I love the app; I'm not sure if it's absolutely necessary to use to get everything set up, but it sure beats the days of having to login to your router's IP address in days past. I set it up on my phone including the password in no time.
In terms of speed, I've seen no slowdown. I get 300 MB/s speed through Time Warner and it handles all of our devices. We are a connected home, with several laptops, tablets, phones, Amazon Echo, Nest products, video game consoles, garage door all connected at one time. I can play Xbox Live while my wife streams Netflix 4K in the other room and we have no complaints.
My one psuedo complaint is the footprint of this router. It takes up a good size of space (for a router) and there's no option to stand it up on it's side. I do not like putting a HDD or thumb drive into the USB port of any router (honestly, no real reason or justificiation, it's just a personal decision) so I can't state how well network attached storage works.
I have to mention the Linksys app one more time. I find it extremely useful and easy to use. It's not necessary (I don't think so at least) and I'm not on it every day by any means, but it is a convenient way to look at who's using your network, how many devices are on it and turning on/off a guest network. It's also easy to run some diagnostics on your network and let you know if you're online (I haven't had to yet).

Nice quality, thin and great picture
on October 28, 2016
Posted by: callmeageeth
from Louisville, KY
This is a fantastic monitor. It requires no tools to put together which is a nice feature and the monitor is incredibly thin (see picture). It has a VGA port just in case, and HDMI. It only has one HDMI, but this is strictly a business or work monitor so I don't see the need for multiple HDMI inputs (IMHO).
To that end, it's simple to use, there's only three ports: power, VGA and HDMI and it's bright and vivid. I've had great experiences with HP monitors and I recommend them.

The Lucyd Starman titanium frames weigh just over an ounce, and with their enhanced flexibility will fit most users out of the box. These patent-pending Bluetooth frames offer a unique mix of durable titanium, designer styling, optional vision correction, and smart features. All Lucyd frames include a 7-day moneyback guarantee and 1-year warranty against any defects in frame or lenses.
What are the glasses capable of?
That's a seemingly broad question, but they connect to any Bluetooth source device and can play music through the speakers embedded in the arms of the glasses. The sound is good based on the open speaker design, so the sound will bleed a little bit. But overall, I like them.

Pixel Buds A-Series bring you rich, high-quality sound for a lot less than you’d expect. Their beamforming mics help make calls crystal clear.*** The flush-to-ear design is stylish, and the stabilizer arc keeps them in place so you can wear them even during the sweatiest workout.**
Does it have Noise Cancellation feature ?
No they do not have active noise cancelling. One of the drawbacks of the Pixel Buds (IMHO) is that they let in a lot of ambient noise, even with a good seal/fit in your ears.

I don't own that phone, but I don't see why not. Biggest concern is size of the phone and whether it fits into the controller. I use a Google Pixel 4 XL and there's still a little more space for the "arms" of the controller to hold the phone. And in terms of the app itself, you'll need to download it straight from the DJI website (which is the same process for all Androids)
