Easy to use, high capacity external hard drive

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this drive to increase the storage capacity of my Nintendo Wii U. It has more storage capacity than I really needed, but it offered the best value for the money. Setup was easy; I just plugged it in, and started up the Wii U, which immediately detected and formatted the new drive.

Very good chest freezer
on December 24, 2016
Posted by: RobD1971

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the Insignia 3.5 cu ft. chest freezer to store venison that I didn't have room for in my kitchen freezer. The freezer is lightweight, making it easy to carry into my basement and set up. I does a good job keeping the food frozen, and includes a basket to help organize the food.
The freezer is not frost-free, so it does need to be emptied, unplugged, and defrosted once the frost gets to be 5-10 mm thick.

Enemies will fall at the wave of your hand. Goals will be grasped with the reach of your arm. Sports tournaments will be won by the twist of your wrist. Your gaming destiny is clear when you're armed with the Wii Remote Plus controller. Hyper-sensitive to recognize your slightest movements, the Remote Plus eliminates buttons and joysticks and replaces them with the natural, fluid gestures of your body.A controller has never been so simple to use. Integrated MotionPlus technology intuitively recognizes every swing, twist, swish and blow and reproduces it on the screen with unbelievable accuracy, taking your mind off the buttons and into the battle, tournament or race. When your controller no longer controls you, the reins are yours to take — steer your way to success.

Play Wii games on the Wii U with this controller
on November 24, 2015
Posted by: RobD1971

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the great things about the Wii U is that it can play older Wii games in addition to the current Wii U titles. This controller works with both Wii and Wii U games, and is intuitive and easy to use.
If you don't already have controllers for a Wii system, I recommend adding this when you purchase a Wii U.

Great gaming system with bundled Mario Kart 8

Posted by: RobD1971
from Sterling Heights, MI
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the Wii U because Best Buy had it on sale for $25 off, and gaming consoles almost never go on sale. Plus, it came bundled with Mario Kart 8, which my kids love. I like the fact that the Wii U is backward-compatible with older Wii games and controllers. The Wii U gamepad also has a built-in screen, so we can play games without using the TV. Now, if someone is watching TV or playing on the PS3 or Xbox, someone else can play the Wii U at the same time.

Quality microwave oven at an affordable price

I was looking for a counter-top microwave oven for my new house. The Panasonic unit heats food quickly and uniformly. I haven't used any of the more advanced features, just regular timed heating, and the kitchen timer function, but it meets all of my needs.

Comfortable, high-precision mouse
on February 10, 2014

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought the Logitech MX Performance Mouse to replace a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer mouse that had buttons that were wearing out. I was looking for a full-sized wireless mouse suitable for use with a desktop PC, that would fit comfortably in my hand.
My 11-year old son commented right away how smooth and precise the mouse pointer movement was when navigating web sites.
The wireless USB dongle is tiny and unobtrusive.
The mouse comes with a rechargeable battery. To recharge, simply plug the mouse in to the computer via the included USB cable. You can continue to use the mouse while it's charging.
The price was higher than most of the other mice in Best Buy's selection, but it was well worth the money.

Only @ Best BuyExpand the possibilities with this Dynex™ DX-HZ325 HDMI switch that creates 3 HDMI inputs from a single HDMI port. Compatibility with most HDMI source components and support for 1080p video resolution enable high-definition entertainment.
I want to connect both an old vcr and old multi DVD player to a new Samsung 4g tv. What do I need
I'm assuming that your TV has only HDMI ports plus a coaxial cable/antenna jack, and your DVD player and VCR don't have HDMI outputs. You might be able to connect the VCR to the coaxial cable jack, unless you're already using it for cable TV or an over-the-air antenna.
You can purchase converter boxes that convert composite (red and white audio, yellow video) to HDMI, or component (red, blue, green video, red and white audio) to HDMI. Just make sure the box has component or composite inputs, and HDMI output. Some converters do the opposite. Make sure that the input type on the converter box matches the outputs on your DVD player and VCR.

Interior light
Should the light come on when you open the door, ours does not but comes on while cooking.
The light does not come on when I open the door. I suppose it's more important to light up while cooking, in order to see if something's going to boil over.
