Perfect for those working from home
on November 2, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
I work as a project manager in the construction industry which requires me to print off larger drawings on a regular basis.
Before I was working from home most of the time, I was printing everything at the office. It was inconvenient when I needed something the night before and couldn't print it at home.
This printer gives me that freedom to print 11x17's, 13x19's, etc.
It is quieter than my old printer and seems to print with better quality at any size.
From what I can tell after having it for a while, it conserves ink for the most part and has various settings to help you conserve even more which is a big deal to some people.
I'm not too keen on the size and weight of the printer. It is quite a bit larger than what I've had in the past, but that's because it's for large format prints. Still, I was able to set everything up without help. The digital screen is large and easy to read. It gives you step by step instructions on how to set everything up and gives you plenty of settings and presets you can set.
The copier is also very handy and has options to copy larger sizes as well.
It is WiFi capable which is very handy for those that have multiple people using it.
I would say that this all-in-one printer is geared more towards someone that owns a small business or someone like me who prints a lot of larger size documents. I would not recommend this to a student or someone that just needs a typical all-in-one. This is a business printer.

Comfortable and convenient
on October 16, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow

These ear buds are very comfortable. I struggle with ear buds because my ears are small. Most of the time, typical earbuds will fall out and I have to cram them back into my ears which in turn makes my ears hurt. Instead of these depending on being inside your ears for stability, they wrap around your ears and the earbuds can rest comfortably inside your ears. No more pushing them back in constantly. I really like that. They also stay in well when I exercise.
The sound quality is pretty good although I did notice sound cutting in and out from time to time. I think the connectivity could probably be the issue which isn't necessarily on them. I haven't had any complaints about the sound when a call comes in. People are able to hear me just fine.
These earbuds use a tapping system to signal the earbuds to change music tracks, pause, play, and answer or ignore calls. I like this feature except its taken me a while to get used to it.
I would encourage you to download their app. It has a few extra features that help with sound quality and personalization.
Overall I'd say these are very nice earbuds.

Finally a pain-free set that won't fall out!
on September 26, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
I want to start this review off with this: THANK YOU, BOSE!
I have tried so many different earbuds and all of them either hurt after just a little bit of wear or just won't stay in. My ears are on the smaller side so I generally have pain when I wear earbuds. A few years ago, I quite wearing them all together because of this or because they just wouldn't stay in. I stuck to over-the-ear headphones which are not ideal when working out because of sweat and overall comfort.
I was hesitant to try any earbuds again but Bose makes great products in general so I thought I'd give these a try. I'm so glad I did because they actually stay in and I was able to wear them for 3 hours straight with no pain. I haven't tested a full work day with them yet but I'm confident that they will be pain-free. I jumped around and shook my head around a lot and they stayed in. Super secure!
I was able to take calls easily and everyone I talked to said they had no trouble hearing me in the process. I could hear them just fine.
The sound quality is also very awesome. Music sounds so crisp and clear as if I was wearing my gaming headset.
Bose also created a good system for answering calls, pausing and playing music, accessing voice assistance. For your voice assistant, you just touch and hold the right earbud and it will bring up the voice assistant that you chose while setting everything up. For music, you double-tap the right earbud to play or pause or you can just remove the right earbud and it will pause the music automatically. You can double-tap the left earbud to skip tracks. To answer or end a call, you just double-tap the right earbud. If you want to decline a call, you just hold the right earbud and boom! Ended!
They made a great carrying/charging case. It's slim and easy to figure out.
I also love their app for the earbuds (and other Bose products). Its easy to use and has a great guide to help get used to the button controls.
If I could give this product 10 stars, I would!

Installation not quite as easy as they advertise
on September 26, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
First off, I'd like to say that this is a good quality filtration system. Before this we were using a water pitcher with a filter. It still had that tap water taste. We live in an area where the tap water isn't really all that bad but when you spent most of your life drinking spring water, you notice differences. This system makes the tap water almost tasteless, as strange as that sounds. I love it because we were already saving money by not buying bottled water but now we can clear some space in our fridge and we don't have to keep refilling a pitcher. We drink a lot of water so it was a minor inconvenience especially when someone would forget to fill it. Now all we have to do is turn on the tap.
Now on to the installation. I am no stranger to plumbing. I am a DIY-er as much as I possibly can be. This was difficult for me to put in. First of all, you are working under the sink which can always be a challenge. Second there are a lot of obstacles to work around when you have a deep sink, garbage disposal, etc. I had to really work to figure out how to install this system to get the proper height, allowances for the tubing, and have it close enough to the cold water line, which in our case, was right behind our disposal. I figured it out but it took me about 45 minutes to do everything. I was expecting about 15 minutes. That being said, we had a tight configuration. Others may have no issues. I would just say that before you purchase this product, read the installation instructions and verify that you will have a good place to mount this.
The filter is supposed to last up to 6 months or about 1,500 gallons. I haven't done a cost comparison yet, but just running the numbers quickly it would seem that the savings are big. It is also pretty easy to change the filters. It's just a quarter turn, pop on and off.
I would say this is a worthy investment if you are tired of buying bottled water or using a pitcher. Nice product.

Awesome monitor
on August 28, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
This monitor is probably the best I've ever owned. I use it for both work and for playing games.
With work I am able to clearly see details on floor plans and digital drawings. The size makes everything so much easier. I am able to swap from my work laptop to my gaming desk top with ease.
With gaming, everything is crisp and clean. I tested multiple games and played a few movies on it. The screen adjusts to whatever it needs to quickly. I never have any issue with fuzziness or color.
Since I work next to a large patio door, glare was a concern. This monitor has an anti-glare finish which works wonderfully.
The only things that this monitor does not come with is an integrated camera or speakers. The monitor I owned previously did have integrated speakers which weren't that great, but I do wish this one had them, although most of the time I have a headset on so it's not a deal breaker.
This monitor slides up and down easily. I can adjust everything with one hand.
It has several different connections, including (but not limited to) 2 HDMI ports and a headphone jack.
There are buttons on the back of the monitor so you can adjust the settings if needed. I haven't had to use these other than to see what options were there.
Overall I think anyone, gamer or not, would love this monitor. I think you get a real good value for your money.

I like it but would fix a few things if I could...
on July 19, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
This product showed up at just the right time for us. Our ice maker broke in our 9 year old refrigerator (expensive repair, not guaranteed fix), and I wasn't quite ready to spend the money on a new refrigerator yet.
The setup was tedious for this ice maker. Because you aren't able to disassemble everything to clean it, you have to run a cycle of heavily diluted bleach water into the system by running the Clean cycle, then you have to drain all the water out which would have been easier for us if we would have been able to set the machine up next to our sink, but we couldn't so draining it each time was a little bit of a pain. You have to run clean filtered water through it 3 times to clean it all out. Then you can start making ice. The first 2 batches of ice that it made had a weird plastic chemical taste to it so I'm guessing that the bleach water wasn't enough to clean the system or it still wasn't rinsed enough. The third batch tasted fine.
The ice pellets are nice. They melt quickly in liquid though, but if you like to chew on ice chips, they are perfect. Ability to change the shapes of the ice would be nice. I could see people wanting that feature.
The extra water reservoir is a nice touch. I'm really the only one that likes ice so it's a little bit of overkill for me but I can see it being good to have when we have family and friends over.
The machine is loud when it is making ice. I've never owned a tabletop ice maker before so this might be normal or even quiet compared to others. I'm not sure. We have an open concept kitchen/dining/living space so we hear everything.
The product is pretty large and heavy. I needed help taking it out of the box and lifting it up on the counter. It fits on the counter right next to our refrigerator. You do need to have 3 inches of space around the whole thing so it will take up a bit of space.
I'm still trying to figure out the WiFi capabilities but supposedly, like most appliances these days, you can control the ice maker from your smart phone. It would be nice if instructions for that were clear. The manual directs you to the website. The website has you download the app. The app tells you that it's not available. A little frustrating.
Despite it's flaws, I still like the product. It does what it's supposed to.

This is the first mechanical keyboard that I've ever owned and I love it. I use it for both work and games. The response is awesome. I like the feel of actually hitting the key and getting a click response. The sound reminds me of a typewriter.
The size is compact. I like that its not bulky.
The weight is surprising. This is heavier than I expected from a smaller keyboard. It seems to be constructed well. It has an aluminum top case which makes this look very attractive. The lights are a great. You can adjust the brightness which is helpful.
The battery lasts a very long time. I was able to use it for a few days without charging it.
It has the ability to program the F keys at the top. I don't particularly use this feature but I'm sure there are people that do.
You can connect this keyboard 1 of 3 ways, by bluetooth, direct connect, or by usb. Very nice to have so many options.
Back to the lights, if you download the Logitech G Hub software, you are able to actually the lights to sync with games, music, or videos. Very cool.
I think this keyboard is awesome and am so happy to own one. Its nice to get a good key response when I need it. 100% would recommend to anyone looking into mechanical keyboards.

Not bad but one size does not fit all...
on June 21, 2020
Posted by: OwNowBrownCow
from Carmel
I was very excited to get these as I really needed something that could stay on while I exercised. I will say that the overall I like the idea of these. The piece that wraps around your ear works really well and they do hold on. I jumped around and shook my head to test how well they would stay on and they are great. However after a about 15 minutes, I noticed that my left ear canal (opening whatever you call it) started to really hurt. Turns out that my left ear canal is slightly smaller than my right so the ear bud doesn't fit well. I can still wear the right one though so I guess there's that.
The sound quality is pretty good. I noticed that if I jumped up and down, the movement would make the sound kind of crackle a little bit. Not a lot though.
Overall I think for the average person these would be a good choice. Especially if you are looking for sporty ear buds.

Love it!

Pros:
- Noise level. It's right on par with my electric toothbrush on the lower setting and doesn't get much higher after that. I can still watch TV while using it.
- Design is great. They make it so you can position it many different ways so you don't have to depend on another person to get your back or neck.
- Design is cool. I like the way it looks in general.
- Several attachments. You have small attachments to pin point certain spots and you have larger attachments to get the general region.
- Adjustable head to create multiple positions. Helpful.
- An app with preset programs so you don't have to worry if you are doing something wrong. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
- 2 lithium ion batteries. Though I feel like you don't even need 2, they are both good to have. Charge one while you are using another, and the charges last a very long time.
- You get a cool looking carrying/storage case. Fits everything you need inside.
- IT FEELS AMAZING
Cons:
-The one and only con I have for this one is the weight. It was a little heavier than expected. 2.9 lbs to be exact but that really isn't that bad. My arm just gets a little tired after a while of using it on my back and neck,
If you are someone like me who was constantly struggling with neck or back pain, I highly recommend this product. After the first use, I could tell it was going to be a game changer. In my opinion, it feels better than the typical massage therapy that I've been getting, and in the end, it's cheaper too.

I play online games and use the headset for zoom meetings for school. The adjustable flip to mute mic is extremely convenient. Before this product I'd be feeling around for a button or double checking to make sure I'm muted or not muted. Now I can know with confidence and it isn't a concern. The sound quality is great and the headphones fit very comfortably over the ears.

Concoct a variety of coffee-based beverages with this combination DeLonghi coffee maker and espresso machine. Its cappuccino system easily prepares perfectly frothed coffee, and its 24-hour programmable timer lets you make up to 10 cups of brew on your schedule. This DeLonghi coffee maker and espresso machine also makes lattes and hot chocolate.
 

What is the hight that will fit under cabinets.

The coffee maker itself is roughly 13 inches tall. I would make sure it has enough clearance for the steam that comes out of the top. You don't want to constantly be hitting the bottom of a wood cabinet with hot steam every morning. I would say leaving about 6 inches from the top of the coffee maker would be fine.
