This is an easy to set-up and easy to use espresso machine that just works as advertised. Set up, from box to counter took all of 15 minutes and I was ready to make a cup. Simple instructions and simple to use, this espresso machine has it all, including a frother! You get the ability to adjust the fineness of the grind and will take a few tries to get the right taste you’re looking for. The unit comes with a variety of filters for both single shot and double shot.
By far one of the best espresso machines I’ve owned.

I picked up this unit to keep the floors of the most trafficed areas of my 3000 sq ft home clean between visits of our Housecleaner.
The i6 was super easy to set up and start using. I found a good place to put the base and then set up a thrice weekly schedule for it to run. It’s still “learning” the layout of my home but in the meantime it’s doing a commendable job of cleaning the floors. It gets about 90 minutes on a full charge and then returns to the base when the battery gets too low. It also notifies me when it’s dustbin is full and returns to the base and doesn’t start cleaning again until
It’s empty. Because of the size of my home it will likely take 3-4 complete runs before I have it fully mapped. Once that’s complete, using the mobile app I can customize exactly when and where I want it to vacuum so I can ensure it’s spending time on the most needed areas. Assuming everything continues the way it’s been going, I’ll likely pick up the larger bing attachment that automatically empties the unit when it’s full.

We’ll worth the price I paid.

I host twice monthly webinars for anywhere from 100-250 people each and also a podcast. I’ve tried lots of different mics at various price levels. I wanted to add a new Mic to my collection exclusively for my podcast and am already a happy Shure customer, at a much higher price point.
So I picked up this MV7X with high expectations regardless of the price point and I am quite happy with the outcome. This is an excellent entry XLR-based microphone. Great sound. Solid build. Remember you’ll need an XLR interface to connect it to your computer, but the sound quality just can’t be beat at this price point.

I've gone through a number of truly wireless earbuds throughout my life and I must say these are good quality earbuds and a great value for the money. These earbuds are pretty comfortable and feel very well built. I've used them for a few workouts and they stay in my ears just fine. They have a well-balanced sound profile with good bass that is sometimes lacking in TWE's.
You aren't going to get a fancy app with an EQ or presets, but I wouldn't expect those types of features with earbuds at this price point. Overall though, these earbuds sound good, are stable, and pretty comfortable.

The Beurer BR60 Insect Bite Healer uses natural heat to dissolve saliva, venom, and other irritants caused by insect bites. Direct heat application via a ceramic hot plate acceleratres the body's natural healing response to reduce itching and swelling, chemical-free. There is a 6 second application time for regular use, or a short 3 second treatment for sensitive skin. For best results, use immediately after insect bites. Suitable to soothe all types of insects bites like mosquito, spider, bee, chigger, flea, bed bug, wasp, ants, etc. For adults and kids ages 12+ with adult supervision.

Apparently, according to my mother, our family has mosquito attractant coursing through our family veins! Every time I am in a situation where mosquitos could be present, I inevitably end up with the most bites, which Is why I picked up this device.
So I picked up this bite healer because if it worked, I knew I would use it....A LOT! Especially now that we've moved out to the "country" I'm finding this to be a very convenient device. I love how compact it is. I can take it with me pretty much anywhere I go. Whenever I am out working on my property I always have it with me in a pocket It's no larger than the keyring my car keys are on.
You get 2 separate treatment settings to deal with insect bites or stings, one that is 3 seconds long and one that is 6 seconds line. It uses heat to break down the toxins and itch-inducing chemicals that are injected by various biting insects. While there is a short-term "burning" sensation, it doesn't leave a mark, any more so than the original sting or bite, and it relieves the pain and itching associated with getting bit.

Transform your space with the crystal-clear 360° sound of the LSPX-S3 Glass Sound Speaker that adds ambient illumination to any room with an inviting, candle-like LED light..
Posted by: amarks94070

Love this little speaker. You’re not buying this for earth-shattering bass. What you’re going to get is the Sony sound quality you’d expect in a compact, portable package. The “candlelight flicker” functionality is really cool and makes a lot of sense for this unit. Great sound and solid build quality you’d expect from a Sony.
We’ll be using this as a nice tabletop low profile speaker for the backyard table when we’re eating outside and want some ambient background music without having to crank up the big yard speakers.
I gave it 5 stars because I’m so pleased with the sound and quality of the unit, but if I could take off a half star, I would due to the lack of a USB AC adaptor. C’mon Sony, you could have easily dropped that in the box. Not happy that I had to spend 45 minutes searching for one in my garage.

Linksys Atlas Pro 6 with Velop Intelligent Mesh is a dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that delivers next-level streaming and gaming to more than 30 devices per node.

Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) provides access to more channels, reducing interference from neighboring networks. Velop Intelligent Mesh technology offers whole home mesh Wi-Fi coverage that’s easily expandable by adding additional nodes. With easy setup, advanced security and parental controls, Linksys Atlas Pro 6 is an essential upgrade to any home.

I picked up this new mesh system. I’ve had a few of the other ones on the market and haven’t been all that pleased. My issues were either with the quality of the connections between the nodes, or the additional features (e.g. parental controls),or the admin setup and user experience. Those disappointments ended with this product.
It took me all of 30 minutes to get all three nodes unboxed, placed and connected. The setup wizard is the easiest to use and understand that I’ve experienced. The parental controls are as extensive as I would have expected. The coverage and throughput is more than acceptable to cover my 3000+ sq ft home and property.
I may decide to add an additional node to cover my backyard, but so far the coverage has been more than acceptable. I’ve walked my 1.25 acres and have been pleased with how far I was able to maintain my WiFi signal.

This is overall a very solid laptop. its specs are pretty much top of the line with some of the best tech inside that is out right now including an Intel core i7, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and NVIDIA GE-Force RTX 3070 GPU. I expected this machine to have the power and speed for gaming.
Visually it looks really good, games run smoothly on it, and the audio sounds as good as you’d expect for a laptop. The keyboard feels solid and has a nice bounce to the keys. But some gamers may prefer a separate Keyboard which can be plugged in to the USB port on the back. One of the few cons of this laptop is a single USB port. So if you like to have a separate keyboard and mouse to fame with, you’re going to need a USB hub.
After some time playing League of Legends to test this unit out, the laptop was warming up but the vents on the bottom do a good job circulating the air and a laptop fan pad is always an option.
The build design is solid and sleek and you can tell that there is a good amount of structural integrity with this laptop.

The latest Intel 11th Core i5 processor with GeForce® RTX3050 Ti graphics also equipped with a large 17.3" FHD 144hz display. Personalize your laptop with RGB keyboard.
Posted by: amarks94070

If you're looking for a solidly built gaming laptop, this one, for the price, is one of the best deals out there. The Intel i5, NVIDIA GeForce RTX3050, and 144Hz Adaptive Sync screen technology combine for an incredibly impressive gaming experience on a laptop, at a price point half what you'd expect to spend.
It's solidly built and the keyboard is really comfortable to use. It's also nice to have a variety of ports including USB 3.1, USB 4, Thunderbolt 4 with USB-C, and HDMI Out. I've seen some feedback that the laptop is large and heavy, but hey, you bought a 17.3" laptop. What do you expect?
The games I've played on the laptop ran well. No problems. No heat issues. Fast load times with the 512GB SSD. The cooling framework on this laptop seems to work well from my experience.
The only negative is the sub-par (720p) webcam that comes with it. For me that wasn't an issue at all because I prefer to game off cam.

There is not much to getting this drive set up and I’m going to have a hard time writing anything of a substantial review because this product JUST WORKS! I love products that just work right out of the box as advertised and this one fits the bill.
I opened it, plugged it in to replace my older and quite bulky back-up drive for my PS5 and it was about as dumb simple as possible. I just turned on my PS5, went to Options > Storage > USB Extended Storage and click on the format button. That’s it!
I love that I don’t need a separate power supply for the drive. The load speeds are super quick with it being an SSD, and it just looks cool next to the PS5. A great find.

I just purchased this projector along with a universal ceiling mount, but there aren't any holes for actually mounting the projector.. Can it be ceiling mounted? If so, how?
I don't believe so. I think I read in the online manual that this unit is not meant to be mounted on a ceiling which makes sense given the way in which its designed to work.
