Easy to use, light, great attachments and cordless
on October 31, 2017
Posted by: redderr

The product is simple to use and the attachments are well built. The ear/nose attachment is a great plus for those areas especially as I am older. I have been able to use one attachment to trim my eyebrows, great plus.
The motor and build quality all seem solid and the charge lasted for 6 usages of varying time sessions. The grip is firm, the weight is not burdensome and easy to recharge quickly. Changing attachments once you get the hang of it is very intuitive.
A keeper.

Microphone Volume Control allows public announcements during music playback or better for KARAOKE!!!
Compact Design at about 10 1/2 inches Wide.
LDAC, DSEE and ClearAudio+

You supposedly can link up to 3 separate smartphones and be able to play the music libraries from each...have not tried this feature yet.
Overall this is a great device to have at your get togethers especially with the power of the battery to give you a good 5+ hours of playback.

Small but wow such power...
on October 16, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
Very quick straightforward assembly and away we go. No selectable power setting button but rather the harder you press, the more power increases.
This concept is again very easy to use. Overall the unit performs very well with an abundance of power. Clean up is a snap with no hidden areas that can accumulate excess "crud."
Mixing small to medium items is a snap with this device, better than dragging out your full sized blender. The major drawback is inability to tackle hard items like ice or frozen items but still 5 stars because of the quick ability to use and then cleanup.

Built like a brick house but thin, sleek and light
on October 10, 2017
Posted by: redderr

This entire item exudes quality from the Bluetooth connection, to the powerful hinges, to the overall thinness and lightness.
The Bluetooth connection is a snap to setup, quick with a very minuscule lag during initial connection startup.
The hinges are powerful, yet delicate on your expensive iPad, and the number of angles are great.
The keyboard is very tactile with a nice feedback as you type. This along with the backlit keys makes using your iPad on any surfaces, beds or laps a pleasure.
This beautifully built, wonderful to the touch keyboard turns your IPad Pro into a powerful all around full computing device.

Pour wine without removing the cork by using the Coravin Model Two wine system. The durable needle pierces the cork so you can pour, and then the cork reseals when the needle is removed to preserve the remaining wine. This Coravin Model Two wine system comes with two capsules that let you pour up to 30 glasses of wine.

Great even for casual drinker
on October 6, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
The device while high end in price, the build and accessories do not seem to reflect high end material but the overall finish is still very good.
The concept of sampling your wine and coming back weeks later or more to resample and hoping to experience the same tasting as the first is seriously hampered by oxidation. The Coravin elimates this issue and does so admirably.
The reason for the four stars is that it work very well on natural cork but much less so or not at all on synthetic corks.
I myself am the only constant wine drinker in my house averaging a glass or two a day, by the end of the week, the taste even from my measly 20-40 dollar bottle is dramatically different.
This device is simple to use, pours at a decent rate and preserves the taste from the first glass to last glass poured to be highly identical in tasting. An ingenious product, I just wished it worked on synthetic corks and that the price of the capsules will hopefully get lower.
But all in all, still cost effective even for some one whose wines average about twent to forty dollars a bottle, to savor the taste of opening a bottle for the first time weeks or even months later after it was first sampled from is fantastic.

5 stars for those that leery of cloud hacking
on October 6, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
The device is large with no wireless charging of your device, I am holding out hope they will provide an Android app to allow you to use your android phone and devices.
I do not have iPhone but several IOS tablets. The 64GB is great but you can use larger SD cards, I used both a 128GB and 256GB.
Again wireless charging would be a 5+stars but from my perspective it is a great device to backup or offload files that are taking up space on your device. You will be surprised when you free up space how much faster your device and apps respond.
Great to backup without going to your PC, MAC or laptops and just store the SD cards for later retrieval onto your devices or even a large external HD. The software app is pretty powerful and adept at keeping track of where it left off in the backup process.
I think I rated mainly a five star because it addresses the cloud safety issues especially give the recent hack of a major credit reporting database. I feel much better to store away from any online services because none can be guaranteed against hacking.

Much sharper overall than prior model
on September 28, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
I was able to swap our "old" ceiling mounted office VS250 and placed the VS350 into it place with no issues.
The overall clarity and to most the better readability of the text and images was the best part over the older unit. The brightness was also nicely appreciated.
The increase in the native resolution is great in making your office presentations easier to read and pop with the increase in clarity and illumination. Controls are all but identical to the VS250, which I loved so love them on the VS350.

My goto headphones...period
on September 22, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
Google Assistant is in the Bose QC35 II. The Bose headphones comes with built-in optimisations for Google Assistant. In addition the headphones feature a noise cancellation which can be adjusted up to three levels to reduce noise and is excellent at doing this.
To enable Google Assistant, Bose has provided a dedicated button on the right side of the headphone. The assistant can be used to make calls, receive texts, as well as set reminders. The headphones are very adept at picking up your commands.
The use of Google Assistant on the headphones is for tasks like notifications or receiving messages. To use Google Assistant you still need internet connectivity for most tasks and the QC35 II does not have cellular connectivity. With the optimization, Google Assistant can read out your messages and calendar entries to you as they arrive which is great.
The headphone can run up to 20 hours on a single charge when used wirelessly. A quick charge of 15 minutes can give you up to 2.5 hours of charge. The active noise-cancellation and Active EQ features require power to function and you can use the headphones indefinitely in wired mode but ANC and AEQ features will go out after 40 hours of use.
The headphones have some heft to them weighing in at 11 ounces but the padding and overall fit make them seem weightless and I can get a good 30 feet from my device before I notice a drop connection. External sound is gone using the ANC which is a pleasure and sound reproduction is off the chart.
This is the headphone I now use always.

Great full size vacuum w canister separation easy
on September 22, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
This is a very versatile vacuum combining the usefulness of an upright with the increased versatility of a canister.
The lift-off system where the canister and hose detach from the upright handle and roller head is straightforward to use and makes the switch pretty easy overall, after one or two tries, it was second nature. The power cord is exceptionally long at about 30 feet which makes cleaning in one shot easy without having to plug and replug back into outlets.

The power cord is exceptionally long at about 30 feet which makes cleaning in one shot easy without having to plug and replug back into outlets.
The vacuum comes pretty much assembled except to attach the handle and hose and the only tool required is a Philips head screwdriver. Bissel includes a Febreze HEPA filter that can be used optionally in place of the standard filter. I left the original filter in and have not used the other filter yet.
The vacuum is fairly heavy at a little over 17lbs but in canister mode become very manageable and even in upright mode it is still very easy to use due to the upright's great maneuverability.
It has bright white LEDs on both the power head and crevice tool to assist with cleaning. The crevice tool LED is actually pretty helpful for cleaning tough to see areas like the lint filter of a dryer or dark areas where some illumination is always useful.

Bissel provides in this vacuum so much suction that it is excellent at getting pet dander and dust in addition to all types of hair. The canister is easy to remove for emptying and as I said the lift-away system works very well. Push a big green button, lift the canister up and out and you now have a relatively lightweight handheld canister vac that is so easy to use for stairs (always a tedious effort for uprights or full canisters), on furniture, on blinds, around appliances, in automotive vehicles, underneath furniture, beds or any other places a normal full size vacuum makes it difficult to get to.
The warranty is five years which is very acceptable but not as long as some of its competitors but overall a great value, with powerful suction, great maneuverability and easy of conversion and little to no maintenance. All the filters are washable and need no replacement per the manual other than every 3-6 months.

Fantastic suction, accessories and controls
on September 20, 2017
Posted by: redderr
from NY
The suction is the first thing I noticed then the useful accessories. This is the most powerful full size vacuum I have used and is a pleasure to be able to suck up items on a hard wood floor without the items scattering all over.
The accessories were easy to use and very beneficial. The seven year shark warranty is also nice. Assembly took all of 5 minutes clicking together several sections and away we go.
I am giving this Shark five stars for overall quality and performance. I've used Dyson for many years and I am thrilled to say the Shark is a superior vacuum. It's sturdy, well made, suction is way better, and has more power with way less headaches.
I truly think the parts fit together better and feel firm in your hand. It also has three settings for hardwood/linoleum, low pile, and high pile. The low and high pile have a self propelled motor which help do the work for you by pulling the unit forward which is Great given the full size and weight of the unit.
The generously sized containers holds a lot of dirt to allow me to clean in one shot without emptying often. The cord is very long allowing me to vacuum large ares without changing outlets which is always a pain.
This is a full size vacuum and so is a heavy, large vacuum and not lightweight unit but it has power and the self propelled part really helps balance out the negativity of that.

Meet Spotlight. A game-changing presentation remote. Spotlight allows you to simply navigate slides and interact with on-screen content from up to 100 feet away. The customizable timer sends vibration alerts directly to hand – and the advanced pointer system allows you to highlight and magnify areas of focus in pixel-perfect detail.

Simple packaging and very easy and quick setup once you download the software. The pointer is extremely slim and lightweight...just what you need from a presentation pointer.
Being able to charge up in a little over a minute to get 3 hours of use with the included USB C cable is wonderful.
Being able to charge up in a little over a minute to get 3 hours of use with the included USB C cable is wonderful.
The pointer itself has very simplified interface, you have only three buttons at your disposal: a large "forward" in the middle; a smaller "back" arrow below it; and a third bullseye button that sits at the top of the slender wand.
Customization is what make this pointer so powerful in my opinion. The functionality of these buttons isn't fixed; you customize the actions they execute using the companion app. So, for example, where a quick press on the main button might move you on to the next slide, a longer hold can be set to launch the magnification feature; a raised hand gesture can trigger changes in volume.
A final neat touch is the haptic feedback, you can configure the Spotlight to vibrate at set times, which could be beneficial to pacing your presentation and your overall timing.
It's compatible with most of the presentation software you're likely to encounter including PowerPoint, Google Slides, Prezi and Apple Keynote.
I give it a solid 5 stars but the price needs to come down a bit for most users like myself to justify the premium price.

By JenJon
This has been the absolute worst electronic purchase ever! I am on my 3rd unit having 2 replacements sent to me from linksys as well as my 2nd range extender (the RE7000) that they have replaced as well. Invested 15-20 hours on the phone with foreign, yet pleasant enough, tech workers. I live in a square, 3,300 sf 2-story and cannot get consistent or far enough coverage. When paired with their extender to take advantage of the mumino technology, the internet fails to open at all on multiple devices, causing us to set up the extender under a different name and losing the purpose of why we bought in 1st place. After being refused to exchange into their new Velop product for all the problems, I ordered the Netgear Orbi yesterday and leaving the linksys brand forever ( I have purchased 9 routers from linksys in my lifetime for personal and rental homes ).

4 out of 5Great Robo Cleaner at a Good Price
By JBCTECH
I've been using robot vacuums for a few years and am a fan. The Samsung - POWERbot R7040 is my first experience with a next-generation model. There are great improvements in this one over my previous, 'bumper-car' versions: 1) Much better normal cleaning 2) option of a powerful turbo-cleaning mode 3) camera-aware movements which reduce the 'bumper-car' approach radically 4) options for manually controlling direction, spot cleaning, and repeat cleaning 5) an app that can control it from anywhere (and gives a diagram of where it went after a cycle) 6) a remote controller that can control it from anywhere in the home and manually direct it's path 7) a much more accessible, top-loading dirt collector that is easy to empty and clean.
It was very easy to set up and start in auto mode. For me, dialing in the added features took some time and trial and error. Better instructions on these features would be a big help. For instance, in manual mode, I would click the directional arrow and it would stop but not move in the desired direction. It took awhile to discover that it wasn't just a matter of clicking, but you have to click and hold the arrows in the direction you want it to go (duh). Once I discovered this, it worked very well (though the sensitivities of manually controlling it are best left for directing it into an adjoining room when you're in a hurry for it to find it's way there - and not in the mood to carry it). I'm also not yet clear on how well the Spot function works. This is too early of a review to address that.
All-in-all I'm very pleased with the way the POWERBot 7040 works. It is powerful, smart, simple and affordable!

Where is the map? The remote from anywhere?
June 17, 2017
In my use, the remote has about about a four foot range, even the manual verifies this.
I have used the app, where is the map of where it cleaned? I used the Android app.
The bumper car still lives in this unit, 4 foot by 30 foot hall, and my unit bounces off the side walls.
Manually controlling direction again limited by a four foot range of the remote.
