When you need the right tech to take on a day full of projects, meetings, and more, you need the HP Series 5 27-inch FHD Height Adjust Monitor. Its sleek design complements any workspace. And its beautiful screen, adjustable stand, and comfort features take your productivity to the next level. Bring flexibility to the way you work through enhanced visual performance, contrast ratio, and refresh rate.

The HP 527sh is a wonderful monitor at a nice price point. Packaging is secure and protective and it comes with everything you need, including a HDMI cable. Setting up is ridiculously fast and uncomplicated! I honestly was dreading this part but they have this down to an easy science with the easy turn screws and a quick slide into place. The power cord is plenty long with a light rectangular adapter. I plugged it in, pushed the power button on the lower right hand corner and instantly had a great picture that was easy on my eyes. With the eyesafe feature it does feel soft on my eyes, in a good way. With a 27 inch screen it feels great to work on, when someone is sharing their screen with me I can see perfect, I don't have to squint or ask them to make it bigger. It also has tilt and height adjustment which makes it even better. I highly recommend this monitor. In fact, I intend to buy another for my home office set up so I'll have two matching awesome monitors to work from. It'll be the perfect set up.

This Lenovo Ideapad is a great little starter laptop. The price can’t be beat. It feels light but very sturdy. Has a sleek look and nice responsive keyboard and touchpad. It is not a touchscreen but does have a great, crisp and clear monitor. Setup was easy but did take a long time. Several updates were needed. It took about a full day before it was finally done. Now that it’s up and running though it’s great. Speed is good. This is a pretty basic laptop that can handle simple tasks like note taking and surfing the internet. I did turn off Windows S version and downloaded chrome as that’s my kids’s preferred browser. It was a little rocky but got through it ok. The battery was pretty low out of the box, but plugged it in and it charged quickly. The battery life after a week is still good with simple usage each day. This is not going to be a gaming laptop by any means. It’s really just for browsing, and simple tasks. If you are looking for a laptop that will do it all then I’d suggest you move up a few price points. But if you have a student or someone who just needs the basics this is a nice l, sturdy laptop that will get the job done.

iRobot, J9+ is an amazing robot vacuum. Set up was so easy, there was an update immediately and after that, all set. This robot vacuum is actually smart. I’ve had a few others in the past that seemed to behave erratically, with no rhyme or reason to their cleaning pattern. This J9+ makes sense. The cleaning pattern it mapped out seems logical, and it is incredibly efficient as well as effective. I can’t tell you how surprised and kind of relieved I am to watch it and think that it made sense in the way it was vacuuming. Finally! iRobot gets it! One charge and a few empties cleans the entire downstairs of my home. It does a great job getting everywhere with speedy results. It comes with a couple of extras, like an additional filter and little cleaning brush. It also comes with an additional vacuum bag in the base. Thoughtful gestures that I truly appreciate. That was the one surprise to me, that when it empties it actually goes into a bag, inside the base. Once it’s full I’ll have to remove it, which is easy, it’s just slides and clicks into place, and then put a new bag in. I do appreciate the bag vs just a bin that I empty. It will keep the dust better contained. Overall, iRobot is the one for robotic vacuums. They’ve got it down to a science and I’m happy to have this cleaning my home.

The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine is engineered with the power, intelligence, versatility, and run time to deep clean your whole home. Now with three cleaner heads for all-in-one cleaning. The Submarine cleaner head washes hard floors and removes wet and dry debris simultaneously. The Fluffy Optic cleaner head reveals invisible dust on hard floors.

Comes with a 2-year warranty and lifetime Dyson support.

The Dyson V15 Submarine is an amazing stick vacuum and mop. If you’re familiar with Dyson then you know the attention to detail and thoughtfulness they put into their products. The packaging is completely recyclable, and easy recycling at that. Out of the box you can intuitively figure out where everything goes, but of course there are guides and instructions to help you figure it out as well. This is not my first stick Dyson, but it’s definitely the most exciting one I’ve owned. The fluffy optic head is amazing to see where dirt and particles are that you might have otherwise missed. The standard head is awesome as well, glides from carpet to hard floors and adjusts itself effortlessly. The newest edition, the mop head is quite wonderful. I had a little struggle with getting the cap on the bottle portion, but with a little patience it went on. When sliding it back together lay it on a flat smooth surface, then it slides and clicks together easily. Took a little time for the water to start coming out but as soon as it did it was off and cleaning! Has a lot of power and self push for the mop head. It’s great! The charger is slightly different than my older unit so I will have to change out the cord in the wall hook, not a big deal. This one also seems slightly quieter than my older one and suction, of course, is phenomenal. I know Dyson has a steep price, but every time you use it you will be glad you have it. Always a quality awesome product.

Enjoy exceptionally clear sound with the Logitech Zone 950 Premium Noise Canceling Headset, our best wireless headset. Work from anywhere and ensure you can hear and be heard in busy environments – like open offices and cafes. The Zone 950 noise canceling headphones feature Advanced Call Clarity technology, which uses AI to make it easier to hear the person you’re talking to by suppressing ambient noise. Hybrid active noise cancellation (ANC) blocks distracting background sound. Noise canceling mics elevate your voice while suppressing other sounds. 40 mm speakers deliver premium audio for meetings and music. The free Logi Tune app offers a dynamic and personalized equalizer (EQ) that automatically adjusts the audio to your own hearing range or lets you customize the sound to your preferences. Designed for comfort and a longer life with replaceable earpads and battery.

The Logitech Zone 950 is a really nice headset. All set for Teams calling on your laptop or PC. This headset connected immediately using the dongle provided, it also comes with a USB adapter which is super handy considering all the other things I have plugged in to my laptop. I work from home and I’m in Teams calls and phone calls frequently. This headset is a breeze to use and the noise cancellation is phenomenal! Charges easily with the USB cord provided with a long talk time. I can get thru 2 days of solid use without having to recharge. Range is pretty standard, I can’t go too far away but you could definitely walk around a bit without losing connection or call quality. These are heavier than my usual headset. But it feels more like a quality thing, not a bulky thing. The sound is good, there’s a button on the earpiece itself to answer Teams calls and when you move the mic up it automatically mutes for you, and tells you you’re muted. They come with a nice little zippered carry pouch, with a separate little pocket for your adapter. This is handy for when I have to go into the office. Overall these are really nice, easy to use with good battery life.

The convenient and easy-to-use Philips Lady Shaver Series 6000 is designed to be gentle and comfortable on the skin in different body areas*. 80% of our consumers confirm no razor burns and redness**. Achieve hair-free skin without compromising on skin comfort. The floating foil glides naturally over your curves and contours, maintaining close contact with your skin for an even shave. For an even more gentle and comfortable shave, use during your shower or bath routine with anti-slip grip for optimal Wet & Dry use. Includes 7 convenient accessories.
Posted by: skylord
This Philips razor is pretty nice. It has two main attachments, a razor and a trimmer. Plus a host of other accessories! I think the key to using this is to go slow. I used the razor on my legs and underarms. It works well. I like that it comes with an exfoliating glove. The instructions are extensive but actually really helpful. This can be used wet or dry. I have done both. On my legs, when dry I could feel like a slight razor burn but it went away quickly. No irritation seen. In the shower, when wet I didn’t feel the burn at all. I like that it’s rechargeable, and has a light that you can see when it’s charging. Super handy! For the trimmer, that’s where I believe going slow is going to help. The instructions say to do that dry, which works, but move slowly to effectively trim the most. You can use it when wet as well, but dry will be more effective. The different heads attach and detach easily, and cleaning the razor is a breeze since you can just rinse off the attachments. Overall it’s a nice razor. Will work well when you are in a hurry in the shower and when you have time, to trim where you want as well.

Whether you’re calling loved ones, texting friends or ordering takeout food online, your phone is vital to your lifestyle. It’s important to keep it charged and ready to go at a moment’s notice. The Insignia NS-MC5CL7W24 7' USB-C to Lightning Charge-and-Sync Cable with Braided Jacket is more than up to the task. It’ll not only help charge your Lightning-enabled iPhone, iPad or iPod, but also let you transfer files and sync your device with a quick data transfer speed of up to 480 Mbps. Its 7 ft. length gives you flexible placement options so you can place your phone wherever you need it. A white color keeps the cable looking stylish while a braided jacket adds protection and durability. Trust this USB-C to Lightning cable to help keep you ready for the challenges of everyday life.

Insignia cables are a great affordable way to go! This one is braided, 7 feet long, lighting to usb-c. Does exactly what it’s supposed to. I like the flexibility of the cord, it’s not stiff. Moves around easily and is a great length for most situations. Plugs in nice and easy with a familiar click. It charges up my iPhone quickly. It comes with a belt to wrap around it for easy carrying or storage. Nice and tidy so it won’t get tangled in a drawer full of cords! Overall this lightning to usb-c cable does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It is easy to use. I like that it has the belt to keep it wrapped up when not in use and I appreciate the braided texture of the cord. A good feature, so much better than those stiff cords that can be so difficult to manage. At 7 feet long I can plug it in and stretch it to my chair so I can still use my phone while it’s charging. There are other lengths and offering from insignia, and I’ve never had a problem with them. For the price point they are the way to go!

Stay in the cloud longer with a 20-hour battery life and get back to full power quickly with a 2.5-hour charge.

The Turtle Beach Atom Controller for iPhone is a pretty neat gadget. I had never used a gaming accessory for my iPhone but do play a fair amount of games on it so thought it was worth checking out. The packaging is nice and secure for shipping. The blue color scheme looks sleek. Putting my phone in it was a breeze, no issues there, even with my case on! I have the iPhone 13, but this is compatible with several later versions of iPhone so check yours! This connects to your phone with Bluetooth, seamlessly in my case. There’s an app to help you find compatible games. Once you find a game you want to play, it detects the controller and asks if you’d like to use it. Just say yes! From there you can explore the buttons, have fun figuring out what they do and play away! Little lights let you know when the controller is on, when it’s synced, and when it’s charging or needs charging. Overall super simple setup that worked right out of the box. For charging you need to slide the pieces together, they link right up, and plug it in. This is a fun gadget, I could see lots of younger people really having fun with it.

I have seen different massage devices all over and used a few of them. But, Therabody is the one to own. If you are looking for an amazing percussive massage device you want this one. I did some work in my yard, my hand hurts, my legs hurt. It was a lot. I used this and you know that ow, but in a good way feeling? That’s this. You can feel it working, and know that it’s doing a good job. Makes you see you needed a massage more than you realized. This comes in outstanding packaging that could serve as storage for all of it. A nice box with a QR code to download their app, and even has some cards for suggested massaging exercises for our most needed body areas like neck. It includes 3 different massage attachments, standard, thumb, & dampener, and has 3 different percussive speeds. Awesome feature is there’s no cord! Charge it up and it’s ready to go. Lights show you what speed you are on as well as whether it’s fully charged or not. Mine is a nice blue color as well. Overall this a great tool that is easy to use and feels great. I highly recommend!

Meet the Shark SpeedStyle, designed for speed and power in a compact, dynamic styling system. Take hair from wet to dry, ultra-fast, with no heat damage. The RapidGloss Finisher delivers a silky, naturally shiny finish without the frizz*. This set also includes a QuickSmooth Brush and Turbo Concentrator, making it ideal for straight and wavy hair. *vs. air-drying, based on 600-person survey.
Posted by: skylord
To be honest I’m pretty simple when it comes to hair care. I usually let it air dry and it’s not often I do much to it. I do love when I go to the stylist though and she makes my hair look amazing! I gave this Shark Smoothstyle a go. It’s actually lightweight, not too loud and has sone amazing adjustments that you can make. You can adjust the airflow, as well as the temperature of the air. I prefer a cooler airflow. This dries your hair so quickly! It’s amazing, The tools are great, easy to attach and remove. The brush has a rolling effect that helps you create a smooth curl, really, actually smooth! You won’t have to use a straightener first. The straightener attachment works well, made my hair look smooth, even my daughter noticed and said it looked good. Then there’s the Finisher. Game changer. This made my hair nice, soft, shiny looking. Just as if I’d come from the salon. Wonderful tool! If you’re in the market for a lightweight, compact, powerhouse hair tool this is it! It’s quick and easy to use and can give you results. I recommend it.

how do you connect it
It was easy to connect, plug it in the same room where your router is, let them sync, push the WPS button on your router. Then move it to another location in the house where you still have a good signal, plug it in and let it sync. Then go where you need to boost the signal plug it in and wait for it to sync. If you have green lights that's good, amber light means the signal is weak, but functioning.
