Meet the Nest Cam Outdoor security camera. It stands watch 24/7, rain or shine. Plugs into power so you never have to worry about dead batteries. And sends an alert to your phone when it detects activity. It even lets you talk back through the Nest app. This is what an outdoor security camera should be.

I bought this on sale to add to our Nest home network.
It's a really nice camera that is plug and play. So nice that we added a second camera, and are thinking about a third in the future.
If you are in the market for this camera and are reading reviews because you need input on purchasing, I would highly recommend it based on my experiences so far.

A Timeless Classic for Fair Price
on January 24, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
J Dilla. That's all you really need to say!
This is a timeless classic from an iconic producer that worked in obscurity for some of hip-hop's most productive,and influential years.
Best Buy was running a special on Vinyl during the Black Friday sales. The promotion included half-price on a second record when you purchased one a full price. Even at $22, this album is a great deal by itself. Throw in the fact that I was able to purchase Dilla's Ruff Draft Beats for $8, and you have an offer you can not turn down!
Love the fact I can still add to my Vinyl collection, and that my purchases can be made from Best Buy as well. I've purchased several records over the years, and I have been happy with the quality of the vinyl.
It's really an honor to write a recommendation for one of the best albums that J Dilla released. Stop reading this and go put it in your cart, and purchase this album NOW!

Great Memory Card With Fast Read/Write Speeds
on January 24, 2018
Posted by: Brian
from Albany, NY, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this on Black Friday for a deep discount.
I have a 32GB version of this card and it performs extremely (no pun intended!) well. I recently purchased a new camera from Best Buy on Black Friday, so I decided to purchase a larger version of the the 32GB card, which is this 64GB card.
SanDisk makes a nice product, and when these cards are on sale they are well worth the investment should you need one (or more). I'm a casual user of my camera, so 64GB is more then what I need, but will give me the opportunity to take some video, as well as still shots.
For the right price (not retail), this is an easy recommendation!

Love These Surge Protectors!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've purchased 4 of these, as they are regularly on sale for $25.
It's really hard to beat the value for what you are getting in return. Like other brands, they offer protection for your equipment in the event of damage, have an accommodating plug array and offer (2) USB ports as well.
I've enjoyed getting these on sale, and am happy to recommend them to anyone looking for functionality at a fraction of the price other big brands charge.

Nice 4K Blu-Ray Player
on January 24, 2018
Posted by: Brian
from Albany, NY, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this during Black Friday, so I received a significant discount.
I watched a couple of 4K DVD's so far, and the picture and sound are exactly what you would expect.
Certainly worth the money that I paid, but maybe not the MSRP that Sony is retailing these for. I say this for a couple of reasons;
1) There is no display (I knew this prior to purchasing) on the front of the unit. For the price point (retail), and the fact that it's the 21st century, any piece of equipment like this should include a display.
2) The other reason would be that (like others have pointed out) there is an issue with this unit freezing up. I experienced this when I activated the feature that enhances audio from non-4K DVD's. I'm still working through the feature list to see what I can/cannot enable that will cause this freezing issue. As others have indicated, the only way to fix the issue of the unit once it is frozen is to unplug it and then plug it back in. I'm sure Sony is aware of this and is working on a firmware update, but for the cost of the unit, consumers should really only be complaining about the lack of display, and not the unit not working as expected 100% of the time.
I would recommend this unit if you understand that you may experience the freezing issue, and are somewhat confident that Sony will release a firmware update to resolve the issue.

Samsung STORMWASH™ Dishwasher Heavy-duty wash system makes pre-rinsing unnecessary. Powerful rotating spray jets are positioned to clean dishes at every angle.Simply place hard-to-clean items above the StormWash™ wheel on the bottom rack and it scrubs them for you. The AutoRelease™ door opens automatically to circulate air and accelerate drying time. A third rack gives you dedicated space for cutlery and utensils freeing up more space for other dishes.

Great Washer For The Price
on January 24, 2018
Posted by: Brian
from Albany, NY, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased the floor model, so I received a pretty good discount.
Surprisingly, this is the first dishwasher I've had to purchase after being a homeowner of three houses. Spending a large chunk of change on an appliance is never easy, so you expect good value in return. So far, this dishwasher performs as expected and is extremely quite when operating.
My only complaint is that my previous (super cheap, came with the house, contractor grade) dishwasher did a better job of cleaning the silverware. My solution so far has been to remove the top (third) rack to allow for more unrestricted spray from the water jets. It seems to be better, but isn't as consistent as I would like.
All-in-all, I think the performance of the product vs. the price I paid is more the satisfactory. I would recommend this dishwasher for anyone not looking to break the bank, but is looking for pretty solid performance.

BIG Sound - Small Footprint
on January 24, 2018
Posted by: Brian
from Albany, NY, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
I LOVE these speakers!
I was in the market for a smaller set of speakers to use in my office. I also own a Sony soundbar that these will work with (as surround speakers), so I thought they would be a good investment that would have a dual purpose.
I'm extremely pleased with these speakers for their size. Great sound and functionality for the cost. I would highly recommend these if you are looking for something with a small footprint, but offers great sound!

I bought two of these, and I'm not the most computer savvy person out there. These were extremely easy to install. They literally are plug and play out of the box, with zero configuration required.
If you need a simple switch that is low cost, this is a great choice!

A Seriously Good Deal!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this DVD set during the Black Friday sale.
Seriously, I paid $20 for the complete Shrek movie set. That's $5 a movie if you're doing the math!
My kids love love the movies, and I love the price!

Work, rest and play with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. A massive 5.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen goes all the way to the edges of the phone so that you get the maximum area possible to work with. Solid water resistance, great processing and masses of memory round out this Samsung Galaxy S7 edge.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this phone during the Black Friday sale.
I upgraded from a Galaxy S5 and I couldn't be happier. The S7 Edge is an amazing phone with plenty of features, but an easy to use interface that anyone can get used to (assuming they are new to an android).
The Best Buy Mobile team was outstanding, and a true pleasure to work with. Throw in a $200 Best Buy gift card for upgrading and trading in my old phone, and another $250 Best Buy gift card for purchasing the phone with Sprint's payment plan, and this buy far was the easiest purchase I made during the holiday season!
