Kitchenaid Mixer Pasta Attachments
on December 22, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
Verified Purchase:Yes
Solid built stainless steel that I bought for my wife for Christmas as she has been wanting a pasta maker for year's. It just made sense to buy the attachment for her mixer instead of a seperate hand crank pasta maker with a comparable price to the stand alone machines. As far as how well it works, well the jury is still out since she has yet to use it but I feel very confident in my decision as Kitchenaid makes great products and continue to add products to extend the mixer into several different uses. I do feel they are a bit expensive but the quality and the constant additions of new attachments make up for the initial investment. So hopefully she will like it and get year's of use out of her pasta attachment like she has with the mixer itself and will try and update this review when I get the final verdict.

SanDisk always makes great memory cards

Not much to say but tons of space on this tiny card with great access speeds at a fantastic sale price! Just can't find a better deal on this size of card to use on a Nintendo Switch. It works beyond expectations and a huge savings over the licensed cards with the only difference being licensed for use on the switch in order to get people to overpay. Highly recommend this card with many different uses on phones, camera's, as well as gaming systems.

Very Fast Duo Purpose Windows Laptop/Tablet
on November 19, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
HP has a winner with this new Spectre X360 13.3" 2 in 1. It comes with one of Intels fastest I7 processor, 8 gb of DDR4 Memory, and an incredibly fast 256gb M.2 solid state hard drive. It has a beautiful 13.3" 1080P touch screen that reaponds very well for the couple weeks I've been testing or really just playing with my new toy! Lol. It is one of the lightest and best portable's that I've found and has very good battery life which really just depends on what you are doing to the amount of time you get out of it before having to recharge which is never as long as the manufacturers state as they always bloat these times just as a selling point I guess but think they would be better off being a little more honest to avoid irritating customer's when they don't come near those stated max amount of battery life. Sorry I got a little off track on a rant so with doing windows updates and downloading software like I always do with new computer's, I was able to get right around 6 hour's before having to hookup the charge cable which has plenty of length for most people.
So far I really haven't come across any real cons or complaints besides the irritation of getting windows 10 to cooperate and hookup to my network which doesn't have anything to do with this laptop and has everything to do with Windows 10 as I have had this problem with 3 other laptops that I have upgraded to windows 10 and have had issue's with each and every one I've upgraded to windows 10 for some reason. But I thought I should mention this just in case other's try to blame the hardware instead of the actual problem.
I would like to end this by saying that if you are used to android or apple tablets then you might find the windows tablet mode a little difficult to get used to and might not like it but if you give it time then eventually you will get used to it enough that you can do everything the other's do just a little differently, which I'm still not sure about but it's getting there and you could also say the same about windows 10 but I've been playing with it from the beginning and I really do like win 10 and I believe it is faster than previous version's of windows and when you add all of it together you end up with one of the lightest, fastest, laptop/tablet with a lot of great uses as well as potential to do so much more than I have space to write about and I can definitely recommend this to everyone looking for a new laptop with a bonus tablet to boot!

Excellent Wireless Earbuds
on November 19, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
These are by far the best earbuds I've ever had the pleasure to use and the sound rivals the over the ear headsets that I own which is an amazing feat of Sony! I really believe that these should be rated at 4.5 as they have excellent noise cancellation that is almost as good as my trucker headset from blueparrot which has the best noise cancellation technology of any headset in my opinion. These sony wireless earbuds come close to that but do not equal as I have been told that whoever I'm talking to on the phone can still here some backgfound noise but not enough to effect my rating but thought I should mention this anyway.
There is only 2 things that I would consider a con and the first and biggest is that you can only connect to 1 Bluetooth device at a time which for me isn't really that big off a deal unless driving when I'd like to be able to use these with both my phone and my garmin trucker gps. The second is the price as these might be out of some people's budget but with that said they are right in line with the competitors prices.
So if you are looking for wireless earbuds then I would recommend the Sony 1000X Wireless Noise Cancelling Behind the Neck for those looking for the best noise cancellation tech but if you are wanting these for working out or jogging then you might want to look at others as I don't think these will be very comfortable for those activities as they will bounce around quit a bit.

Nice 23" IPS monitor for the average home PC
on November 9, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
I have been struggling a little with how I should rate this monitor as it is a little expensive for the size and the category that this is built to compete with but with that said, it really isn't overpriced for what you are getting which is a very thin monitor with the exception of the bottom 3" with a very nice picture in a hard to find IPS monitor that is affordable and I personally believe the picture is better than the same size 1080p TN monitor that most screens in this price range are built with making this monitor an all around better value than other cheaper models. One of the reasons they could make this screen so thin is because it has an external power supply which could be seen as a pro or a con depending on how picky you are with having to find a place for it to sit out of the way.
Which brings me to the cons which aren't huge but I do feel there are enough to dock it one star. The biggest is the lack of ports as it only has a VGA Port or an HDMI port which should be enough for most but I wish they would have replaced the VGA Port with either a DVI or Display port which would work much better with newer video cards and I also wish they would have included an HDMI cable but unfortunately they only included a VGA cable so you will need to get an HDMI cable if you want the best picture possible from your new monitor. Secondly several reviewer's have complained about the stand not being adjustable which is not true as it does tilt from -5° to 15° which isn't much but it is enough to get a good viewing angle. #3 is that in order to make the screen so thin they could not include any VESA mounting hardware or options which could be a major issue for some. This last one in which I don't believe is a con but other's might see the 4 Ms refresh rate and 60hz as a little low or the refresh rate a little faster but honestly I don't believe most people can even see the difference in 3 Ms but whatever and if you are looking for a monitor that can be over clocked to a faster refresh rate than 60mz then you should be looking for a higher priced gaming monitor as this monitor was not built specifically for gaming or pro video editing but it will work for casual gamer's or just hobbiest video editing.
In closing, this is a nice monitor with crisp text and a beautiful screen that would be perfect for any home or office user that wants a better than most picture in a moderately priced monitor and can live with a few small deficiencies then you should definitely consider the new Acer AS230 BI.

Liked but wouldn't buy.
on November 9, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
I liked this chopper. It works great and the end product is always pretty. The pitfalls are that it's big due to the motor size and I didn't like the fact you have to cut the food in order to chop the food. I think that if the basket was bigger it would also be beneficial. It does make a really pretty coleslaw but again you have to chop the food into small pieces in order to use the chopper. If you do not have a food processor then this would be a great option. If you do have one it would just be faster to use it as it holds more.

Shark NV-26 Vac Surprisingly Great
on September 25, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
I chose this shark above all others because of the size of the dirt collection cup when in fact I should have chosen by features instead. With that said, I am incredibly happy with my choice for sweeping the entire house which is all carpet with the exception of 2 bathrooms, kitchen and dining room, and the laundry room in the basement. We have a split level home with a fully finished basement with 4 bedrooms, just for size reference, so needless to say we have a lot of carpet to keep clean.
We have been using a Dyson full sized vac for the past 2 years and we've been very happy with what we thought was a very good vacuum until we received our new shark and after putting it together, I had to try it out just to see what the hype of the swivel head was all about and wow it really works great for my wife and I but my mother-in-law who is 87 doesn't really like the swivel much because of arthritis but has been wanting a Shark for several years which is one of the reasons I chose this model and she also says it feels heavy to her. Now at 15 pounds is a little hard for me to see since I am a 51 year old man. Now I'm definitely not in the greatest shape and gradually increasing back and neck problems. So I thought I should try it out before she used it to see how much of a problem the swivel head might be for her, but it really felt good as far as the weight and how easy it is to maneuver around furniture so I was a little surprised hearing that from her. Normally when I am doing any kind of activities such as sweeping or mowing, It usually causes me a great deal of pain and as long as I didn't get crazy with how far out I pushed it in front of me, then I didn't have the normal amount of pain which normally causes me to take a break after 15 to 20 minutes so I was very pleased with how it felt and I only swept our living room and down the hall but after doing all of that, I felt like I could actually sweep the entire house without stopping with the shark and I have never felt like this with any other sweeper we have had including the Dyson!
Speaking of the Dyson, my mother-in-law had just swept the entire house a day and a half before the shark arrived. So I wasn't expecting to pickup much, if any dirt when I started sweeping and man was I shocked by how much dirt and dust the Shark picked up that the Dyson had missed and not only that but you could easily see a difference in how much cleaner the carpet looked after I was done!
So I was instantly sold on the Shark NV-26 and after using the Shark they have just earned another lifelong customer and for anyone looking for a pretty nice OK Dyson, then I have one that I am willing to sell you for an incredibly cheap price! Lol, In other word's I cannot recommend the Shark NV-26 enough and will definitely be buying another Shark when that time comes. Oh, I was so impressed with it's power and ease of use that I totally forgot to mention the great accessories that stow on board except for the pet hair furniture attachment which also works fantastic and last but not least is the very long power chord, that is long enough for us anyway to sweep each floor from one outlet which is another great detail that Shark included on this model to make it very convenient and just 1 more reason why anyone in the market for a new vacuum should compare this to any comparable models from any manufacturer and I just don't believe that you can find a better vacuum. I wish I would have bought a Shark year's ago when I blew 2 grand on a filter queen, which was by far my biggest disappointing waist of money that I have ever spent, but live and learn and if this helps anyone from making that same mistake, then this would end up being the best review that I have ever had the pleasure of writing!

There really isn't a whole lot that you can really say about earbuds but I'm the type of person that really hates to spend much money on earbuds because I prefer headphones in which I have a couple pairs that cost up to $500 which now that I think about it I really can't help laughing at myself because I hate to even spend $10 bucks on a pair of earbuds that i only use for mowing or working outside.
So with that in mind it did pain me to buy these, lol. But as far as earbuds go these sound pretty good and definitely get loud enough so there isn't a problem with hearing your music over a mower or table saw. I still get the cables caught on things every once in a while which of course rips it out of your ear which is one of the things I hate about all earbuds and if they ever come out with wireless earbuds I would have no trouble spending some momey on them just for the convenience.
So if your looking for some decent earbuds that don't cost a fortune then these will work for you.

Incredible 4K TV at an Unbelievable Low Price
on September 9, 2017
Posted by: JCChiefsfan
from St. Joseph, MO
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this tv mainly because of all the features you get for a fantastic price and it kept me under my budget limit which made the wife very happy! I came into this purchase with below my normal expectations for electronics purchases and was blown away at just how good this set really is from all the picture adjustments to the outstanding picture. Of course it's not perfect but for the features and how beautiful the picture is for this price, well it's about as perfect for a budget minded person as any 4K tv can be.
This set has everything that a set priced $500 more has and the only way that you could ever tell that the higher priced sets apart from this one is by the name on the front of it. You might be able to knitpick if you put them side by side but even then I don't believe that you can justify spending that much more on a tv but that's just my opinion. The picture on all channels is much better than my old 1080p set and I was pretty happy with that old beast of a big screen and had no clue at how much I was really missing until I started setting it up and fine tuning made it pop even more and after a month of viewing and playing games with the xbox one s I couldn't be happier.
I guess the only con is the sound but everybody should know by now not to expect much in the way of sound from all newer flat screen tv's and I spent a lot of money on my surround system a few years ago so I would be prepared when I finally upgraded my screen and wow what a difference and I wish I wouldn't have waited so long but that is probably one of the reasons I got such a great buy. So if you haven't already upgraded your sound then you need to seriously start thinking about it because it just makes movie's and gaming just like going to the movie's and we haven't spent money on movie tickets since I purchased our first surround system some 10 year's ago and don't plan on waisting that money anytime soon as we have our own movie theater at home and it's pretty awesome to have that anytime you feel like a movie and it makes gaming a hundred times better than just the speaker's you get with your set, but enough on that.
So if you are looking to upgrade an old set or just need another tv then do yourself a huge favor and check this model out before you can't get them anymore. You will be amazed at just how good the Vizio M55-DO is!

This is by far the best Logitech Headphones I've ever had or used and the best gaming headphones I've ever had for any console gaming sysem and I've owned almost every system built and have always bought headphones for each so I've had some good and several bad one's.
First of all these are the most comfortable headphones that I've ever had and I just can't stress enough how comfortable they really are to the point of almost unnoticeable when gaming which extends my gaming time to the point of falling asleep instead of quitting because they are killing my ears!
The next and last most important thing about these headphones is that they sound really awesome and the 7.1 surround sound is not only powerful but just sound incredible and sound like headsets that are two to three times the price and they aren't made of plastic so they actually feel like they could last for several year's intead of being lucky enough to get a year out of them if you have kids that use them too. So for the money and the quality of the G433's I feel like you just can't go wrong with this headset and there really isnt any advantage to spending more on other headsets unless you just have to go wireless but for me, the quality, comfort, and the sound just can't be beat so do yourself a favor and check these out before you make a final decision.

Handle more data than ever before with this PNY 480GB solid-state hard drive. Fast operation is assured thanks to the SATA III connection that delivers at data up to 6 Gbps, and a lack of moving parts means reliability is exceptional. Reduce energy use and enjoy quieter operation with this PNY 480GB solid-state hard drive.
Can I easily install this myself, if I have never worked on a computer before?
Yes you can. The first thing you should do is back up all of your saved information or files including pictures and music you don't want to lose and simply do a Google search on how to install an ssd hard drive. There is a ton of info on the Internet to help anyone do this. Then you need to decide if you want to copy your old drive or do a fresh install of Windows. This will depend on whether you have a copy of Windows on a disk or not and if you don't then you can buy a copy for around $100 but the best and easiest option is to clone the drive if possible and if there isn't any issues with Windows like having a virus or corrupted system files. I hope this helps and remember if you have any questions, then Google is your best friend!

This Klipsch Reference R-25C center-channel speaker utilizes dual 5-1/4" copper-spun IMG (injection-molded graphite) woofers and a 1" aluminum diaphragm-compression LTS (linear travel suspension) tweeter to produce clear cross-spectrum audio.
Can I safely power this center speaker with a 7.2 rceiver/amplifier thta has only 110 Watts per channel?
Yes you can, I'm currently running mine with 145 peak watts receiver and your 110 watts is just the peak watts per channel which it does not push to your speaker's constantly. I don't know what receiver you have but all manufacturers list the max amount of watts it will push as a sales gimmick so you don't have anything to worry about and if you want more info I suggest checking out the klipsch forum on tapatalk app or website. There is a lot of good people on there with tons of info willing to help you out.
