This is among the best dark roast k-cups options. Bold, just the right amount bitter, and no cloying aftertaste.

Gets the job done

I've been using this coffeemaker multiple times a day for more than 9 months now. It's low maintenance, and consistent. Gourmet coffee? No, but good coffee if you get the right K-Cups. And you cannot beat the convenience.

Works well, but not as polished as it could be

I am using this in conjunction with an Amazon Echo which works very well. Initial setup is a little bit of a hassle, and it is essential to update the firmware once you get it connected. After setup these work flawlessly. The Android app works, but it takes longer to start up than other home automation apps.

I use this controller in conjunction with an Amazon echo to control multiple Phillips and GE LED bulbs in my home. The hub does control GE Link bulbs and enables the echo to do so as well. The Android app works well and is responsive. The Philips bulbs themselves are a softer light than the GE ones.

So so bluetooth
on June 15, 2015
Posted by: TheGenie
from FL
I bought this phone to use as a wifi streaming device. I have not activated the verizon phone service. Android runs reasonably well, with just a few stutters here and there. Bluetooth performance however is below average. The phone experiences random drop outs more frequently than other android phones I use. The MicroSD slot is a plus though.

Works

I bought this tablet for three specific purposes: to read digital magazines, comics and graphic novels; to watch netflix, amazon video and tv; and to play a handful of Android games. It performs all three tasks perfectly. It is replacing an Asus Transformer Infinity tablet that was unresponsive and essentially useless. This Samsung is the exact opposite. Android runs smoothly, and the screen is gorgeous.

Exceeded expectations

This product works better than expected. The IR reaches devices on multiple shelves in my entertainment center. It controls everything I have, including my PS3, WiiU, and a generic remote sensor that I have connected to a PC. Programming using the app was the easiest I've experienced with a Harmony remote (I've used half a dozen previous models). It even controls my Kindle Fire TV stick and enables typing. The Android app is top notch and feels like it works instantly.

Motorola Moto G No-Contract Cell Phone for Verizon: This phone's screen stays protected from everyday scratches and bumps, great for someone who is busy with work or play. Listen to FM stations when out and about, and stay prepared by creating a hotspot for other devices wherever needed.

Using as a streaming music player

I purchased two of these, one to use as a wifi streaming music player, the other as a dedicated TV remote in conjunction with Logitech's Home Hub system. Both work perfectly for those tasks. Android feels quick and responsive. Bluetooth musc playback works extremely well, and dropouts are rare. Other phones I tried experienced regular bluetooth issues. I have not activated the Verizon phone service.

Great sound

How Often Used:3-5 times a week
I use these for running outdoors. They sound fantastic, and frankly I'll never go back to running with wired headphones. My only complaint is the fact that I had to return the first set when they quit working (within the first 45 days of owning them).

These Motorola MOTOROKR S305 89335N headphones feature Bluetooth technology, so you can wirelessly stream audio from a Bluetooth-enabled music player or mobile phone for easy connectivity. The control buttons make it easy to adjust volume and more.

Good for the gym

How Often Used:3-5 times a week
I use these at the gym (with an iPod nano). They work well, and while they don't get very loud, they get loud enough. I rotate between music and audiobooks and both are handled well. They seem to handle sweat well enough (I do 45 minute runs on the treadmill without any issues).
