Plenty of power and great for high volume use!!
on January 4, 2017
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I wanted to put this thing through the paces over the holidays then submit a review. Boy am I glad I did!! In short, the Ninja IQ took everything we threw at it and as much of it as we could give it with perfect operation and consistent high quality of output.
Now for some details:
Unboxing:
This thing is VERY well packed in a sea of cardboard compartments. Once the 10ish minute unboxing is done you'll want to go over all of the parts. This thing has a HUGE main pitcher with 3 additional Nutri-NINJA single serve or small quantity cups as well. Everything is packed in tight but compartmentalized well so that there's no confusion about contents and the main pitcher is covered in several warning layers before getting to the sharp stuff.
Once we were inboxed we washed everything up and put this guy to work. A few quick observations about functionality:
- The AutoIQ works well, especially for crushed ice and smooth blends. There were some NYE drinks that were "best ever" thanks to our new Ninja.
- The regular low/med/high settings seem to work well also but based on what I use a blender for, the IQ settings are best suited it seems.
- This machine is noisy but no more than I'd expect from any other professional grade blending/crushing appliance in my home. The noise is smooth and doesn't sound like I'm destroying the machine with my every use so I'm confident that it's just the sound of power.
- I really like the pour spout and the handle release on the lid. Having come from an el-cheapo blender but having used prograde blenders before, this seems sturdy and thoughtful. The handle and general structure of the removeable assembly is well engineered it seems, even when loaded down with heavy product.
I did however have a few gripes that, while minor, are keeping me from a full 5-star review state:
- At this price range, and at the top of Ninja/Shark's product line, the main pitcher should be glass, not clear plastic. While it seems to be a durable, hard plastic with a sturdy build and finish, glass would have ensured a premium feel and given just a bit more durability and noise reduction.
- The gearing mechanism where torque and power are transferred from the base motor to the cup/pitcher blades are a two-mode bi-directional system designed to accommodate existing Nutri-NINJA compatible cups and blades, as well as our large 88oz pitcher. This is an interestingly geared system where the motor spins the NN and main rotors in two different directions during operation (assuming that the difference in blade design dictates this) which seems a little odd on the engineering front and could be a long-term durability issue. Also, these interlocking gears are made of plastic resin of some kind which seems to be holding up OK for the first few weeks of hard use, but come together with very thin teeth that could slip over time. Why did they stop using metal on these parts??? I understand when a $20 blender is all plastic but I struggle to forgive a $300 blender for the same.
Potential premature wear concerns (potentially unfounded) aside, Is recommend this system to anyone looking for absolute
Blend power and a high-grade appliance both in performance and looks.

Great coverage! Simple Install! Needs more CAT5.
on December 21, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I am in love with the simplicity and "just works" nature of this equipment. I waited to provide a review for a few days of use after install but there's nothing to report but superior coverage and excellent speed network-wide on all devices, even those that only support 2.4GHz networks.
The mobile app is good for management, but I'd love a web interface, and while the parental controls and device priority modes are useful and work flawlessly, Id like a little more control (if wanted) around DHCP default range etc. Also, as someone who has an office full of high end PCs that are stationary or have docking stations, I would have appreciated 2-4 LAN ports vs the single Ethernet port on the main station.
Overall This is a great wifi solution for homes larger than 2000 sqft where one router in the den doesn't cut it and you don't have to be a network engineer to deliver that sweet sweet Weye-fyes...

My new favorite toothbrush...
on December 1, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I can say a great deal about this toothbrush. As a CTO for my company and a general technology enthusiast, I'm excited to see the Philips folks take a "connected" approach to something that you wouldn't think would be valuable to talk to your smartphone. If you feel that way, this product might just change your mind.
First the basics. The product comes in excellent packaging, though the outer boxing is flimsy and may be easily damaged in the retail space. I can see a number of these becoming damaged box specials since Philips seems to use these flimsy cardboard packages. On to the product! This thing comes with EVERYTHING you'd need to start cleaning that dirty mouth (except for the toothpaste - pick your own brand!) There's a standard and a firmer detail head, both have very nice covers for storage. There's a charging stand that doubles as a storage stand for up to 2 brush heads. I appreciate that this is a rechargeable set and offers a nice, small stand that doesn't take up acres of real estate on my bathroom counter. As someone who travels often, I also appreciated the travel case that was included with the unit, which is constructed of hard plastic with a clear lid and not only fully contains the unit for travel but protects it structurally during the bumps and scrapes of air/road/all travel.
On to the connected functions! I'm an iPhone and Android user, but I've only had a chance to pair this guy to my iPhone and use it. The app is great and actually advises you if there are better ways to reach spots or if it detects that you're over/underbrushing certain spots and recommends changes in your brushing habits to deliver the best possible clean, It also keeps running track of the brushing you're putting in so that you're motivated to take maximum care of your mouth.
There are also 3 modes the brush will run in. This helps with avoiding hard brushing near sensitive gums (the appropriate brush heads help too). These modes are also designed to balance the cleaning and whitening patterns of the various brush heads. You'll have to try one to figure out which is best for you.

At 15 versions, Adobe has a winning formula
on December 1, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I've been a sporadic user of Adobe's "Elements" software since the first few versions (I think I actually used Photoshop Elements 1.0) - I've since used versions up through 11 and 12 on the Mac platform and decided to run this copy on both a Mac and Windows 10 device to fully suss out any new features and give a thorough review of performance, etc.
First thing we'll focus on is the packaging. You still get CDs/DVDs containing the product for both Mac and PC with the associated activation key being stickered to the PC DVD sleeve - This was a bit off-putting as a Mac user as I hadn't yet removed the other disc sleeve from the box and had trouble finding the product key. The real issue here is that the box and its associated materials are still designed around CD/DVD media in this day and age.
Maybe its because I'm a Mac user, but I buy/use just as many PCs these days and I haven't had one with an optical drive in some time. I wonder if Adobe would be better served, considering how cheaply you can produce flash media nowadays, to go with a small USB drive with both versions of the software onboard, along with a more elegant, longer lasting key card that could be stored away with the USB drive (I'm inspired by Microsoft's latest packaging for Windows 10 and other products) - That way we can keep the media and key for re-install and you're not costing your customers WITHOUT optical drives the 1+hours to download your software before they get to experience it...
Now on to the software itself. As I mentioned before the UI of the software seems largely unchanged since even the Version 10/11 I'd last used on the Mac, If anything I recall those versions more closely resembling their full Adobe CC counterparts whereas this Elements software seemed to be simplified further, even when choosing the "Expert" views.
What I liked about the software was the speed with which each operation was completed. Complex filters, big brush applications and lots of other changes were real-time (I'll attribute some of this to the fact that my hardware is top-of-the-like Core i7-based kit) but some of the performance seemed snappier than the Photoshop CC counterpart I'm used to using. Accuracy and results from the brushes and filters was as good as I see coming off of the professional CC apps, and I LOVED that the product took a preference for whether-or-not I wanted to use its Photo Organizer or jump right into Editing (My workflow doesn't use Adobe's Express Organizer, but I find it a competent organizer of media for those who don't have an investment in Lightroom or another photo management software. It still resembled "Lightroom Elements" in a way but since that product doesn't exist I assume its meant to be just that.
And that's my last point. Adobe has for years produced these high-quality, feature limited products under the "Elements" line - Where are the Illustrator and InDesign Elements products? Or even a product that merged the best of those two into a single consumer tool for graphic design? Not related to the quality of the product but every time I touch one of these excellent Elements products I'm reminded that there's something missing there.

Fantastic replacement heads for a fantastic clean
on December 1, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
I also had the opportunity to review the excellent Philips Sonicare - Flexcare Platinum Connected Toothbrush which is now my daily driver as it delivers a clean unlike any power toothbrush I've tried due to its multiple modes and adjustable intensities (and mobile integration to keep me on my brushing until truly clean). These replacement heads are similar in feel to the standard cleaning head included with the unit, but this two pack extends your usefulness of the product an extra 6 months, or 3 months for a couple (My wife was excited to see the new Sonicare, so we split this package and both agreed that these heads do a great job on a great toothbrush. Deep cleaning, no more gum bleeds from harsh brushing by hand or with the wrong heads on another power brush. These are a great compliment to the system.

A good trimmer but with one old issue.
on December 1, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
This trimmer has a great feel of heft and makes controlled cuts easy. It offers a great comb selection and attachments. My chief complaint is that it ONLY works when charged. Using the device when the battery depleted is not possible by plugging the device in and using it tethered. This is the mark of a truly great trimmer, as I don't always use them for daily grooming, nor are they plugged in full time since my bathroom only has one set of outlets and the wife claims dominion over at least one of those two plugs (right guys?). If you're a daily trim groomer or you have the space to keep this thing on the charger full time it seems to be capable of service to you for a long life as it has a very nice blade system and is very well made. If you (like me) need to do random grooming touch-ups just every week or so it may be a challenge to keep this thing operational when needed by charging ahead of time, but will otherwise serve you well. There are other trimmers on the market that work tethered and eliminate this issue.

Fantastic coverage, speed and manageability.
on October 23, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
The WRT3200AC has been an amazing addition to my home network. Finally I no longer need to use a base router and extender to reach the entirety of my ~2300 sqft home.
Setup was a breeze. Physical connections, Power on, Wizard, DONE! Usually I have my own tweaking to do to a new router to "harden" it after going through setup on the web GUI, but in this case all of my typical configuration options were either the default or offered in the setup.
Unboxing/Initial Impressions:
The router comes in a very nice package and opening/unpacking the required parts/components is intuitive and simple. The router is rather large compared to older Linksys models I'm familiar with, but just a bit, and it would need to be to make room for those extra antennae. The packaging is smart and attractive and setup instructions are easy to find to get up and running.
Setup/Configuration:
As I mentioned in my summary, the initial setup wizard made it super-simple to configure, secure, and connect the router to the required resources and to specify my preferences as per my own standards of security, IP convention, ISP requirements, etc. It was also very easy to enroll the device in cloud management per the "Linksys Smart Wifi" cloud/mobile management service. They even integrated that enrollment with first time setup so that more novice users would be able to take advantage of it that otherwise wouldn't know it was there (a problem that many competitors have with their advanced management and integration features.)
Use/Daily Operation:
This router blows away my previous AC1900-grade router (from another manufacturer) in terms of coverage. While I understand that the AC3200 technology in this latest router only provides improved on-premises inter-device bandwidth and per-device switching/routing improvements, I noticed a major difference in coverage and at-distance throughput when compared to my previous setup, which included a base AC1900-grade router (Simultaneous dual-band) and an AC1200 dual0band repeater where I was repeating 5GHz to my upstairs bedrooms from a stronger 2.4GHz second SSID which, while it worked, was a complicated setup that kept me from enjoying fully automatic network band selection, and without such a repeater setup, devices on the outer halves of my upstairs bedrooms suffered.
I left the WRT3200AC configured as per defaults (identical SSID for 2,4 and 5GHz, WPA2 auth, NAT class-c routing, etc). I noticed immediately BETTER bandwidth and coverage throughout the entire house with just the single device driving the entire network.
I only evaluated the device in mixed 2.4/5GHz mode, which is the intended configuration for this Tri-band router, and I have no need to change anything as performance is excellent.
Summary/Rating:
While I've lauded all aspects of the router, and I'd recommend it to a friend, I have only one complaint keeping me from a 5-star review: Mobile/Cloud management. The interface is great and the applications for Android and iOS are excellent, but I have two concerns:
- I observed a limited feature set when it came to modifying the router's DHCP or other advanced networking/config settings, the mobile GUI doesn't support that, and its JUST keeping me from a pefect 5.

Great user interface, multi-sensor benefits
on July 18, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Cincinnati, OH
This thermostat is unique in that instead of just being an Internet-Connected single unit that adds programmability to your existing thermostat, it also allows you SOME zone programmability in that you get a second sensor with the product and you can buy additional sensors to add to the scenarios that fit your home life.
I thought it was pretty neat that you can also use the auxiliary sensors as occupation sensors in their respective rooms/zones. My only real complaints (and one of these is simply a lack of tech yet) have to do with the usefulness of "zones"...
First of all, You really can't create cooling/heating zones with this product since it would still require a multi-zone HVAC set up in your home to do so. I've heard of baffle/motorized vent products coming soon that hopefully these guys add to their arsenal that would make this perfect. Being able to concentrate cool/warm air to where it's needed would really add to the experience and efficiency.
Also the sensors need to stay pretty close to the base unit to work... I only have a 2300sqft home and all of my sensors are near my central stairs upstairs which my main thermostat is behind downstairs. My master bedroom remote sensor falls off the grid ~once per day.
If you have a dual mode system or a whole-house humidifier this can consolidate controls for all of those into one Ecobee system which seems promising for our future endeavors in HVAC and this is also fully supported by HomeKit which will make future-proofing and joint cross-vendor operations easier to set up aligned to Apple's ecosystem.

Fantastic value set of speakers!

These work great to give my little Intel NUC (with no internal speaker) a voice! They have really good high and midrange response and surprising bass for their size. Highly recommended to those who just want a simple two-speaker setup and don't want to make a Bose investment! They are large, and the contrasting style is high tech looking and not for everyone but they perform well!

Amazing system value. Especially for the price!
on June 23, 2016
Posted by: GadgetGuy1981
from Cincinnati, OH
This is not my first Chromebook, but in fact one that I purchased for a family member who is starting their own business. I am helping them build their technology stack on Google Apps for Business and subsequent web/cloud-based storage and applications for simplicity and included backup/sync functionality if local data loss was to occur.
This family member isn't very high-tech and wanted a very simple user experience and a zero-config/management set up so ChromeOS was perfect.
This Acer Chromebook will no doubt be one of the best Chromebooks of 2016! Amazing WiFi range and 802.11AC compatibility. Build quality (all aluminum chassis and body) is superb. I evaluate $2500 Ultrabooks at work that could learn from Acer on this one. Dell used to be my go-to but I'm going to have to give Acer a second look if they keep making machines like this. The keyboard has perfect tactile response and the touchpad is excellent for this price bracket. No backlot keyboard would be my only wish list item to make this thing a perfect user experience.
My only other complaint, one common to Chromebooks and other value PCs is the AC adapter type. Such a small, skinny DC jack that it looks like it'll break off inside the machine without much force. At any price point, a more robust power cord connector would have been easy and given some peace of mind. This seems like an unnecessary cut.
Back to the positives (so many more than the two annoying negatives that are more about the segment and are really picky). The screen: EXCELLENT! - This thing is better than most full-price business laptops when it comes to screen contrast, clarity, brightness and resolution. It's not a touchscreen but in a Chromebook those are still considered luxury items. It has a wonderful matte anti-glare finish but does not get washed out by it. Unlike most matte displays the black point is deep and the contrast is very even across the display. This is surely a quality IPS panel and not one of those value TN displays with funky backlighting and uneven color/contrast.
Finally, this thing is fast and efficient. I ran for almost 4 hours unplugged last night doing all of the Google Apps, Wave accounting, and Google Cloud Print setup and teaching my excited relative about all the bells and whistles that took very little retraining of his current computer skills. We only used 17% of our fully charged battery. This thing will definitely go all day and then some. We're talking an easy 10-12 hours of daily use and what seems like very good LiPo chemistry as this is not a heavy laptop so it's not due to a huge heavy battery inside.
All in all I'll be telling everyone about this thing. This will either be 2016s top Chromebook, or I'm excited to see what beats it!!

Reliability meets modern multitasking with the HP DeskJet Plus 4155 all-in-one printer. Designed to save you time, this all-in-one printer helps you quickly tackle print, scan, and copy jobs with the 35-page automatic document feeder. Send secure faxes from virtually anywhere with your smartphone. With HP Instant Ink, this wireless printer automatically orders ink and delivers it straight to your door with up to 50% savings on ink (subscription required). Get better range and fast, reliable connections using dual-band Wi-Fi with self-reset. Set up your color printer in a few easy steps, then connect, and print from any device using the HP Smart app. The HP Smart app also lets you scan and share your documents to Dropbox, Google Drive, e-mail, or the cloud.
 

How much are the cartridges and if you don’t print more than 3 or 4 times a month do they dry out and need replaced?

Your best bet with the newer HP models that support it, is to go with the Instant Ink subscription - That way you're covered on ink as long as you're a subscriber and you're going to get your value out of the cartridges even if you don't print a lot.

The current (estimated) price of the #67 cartridges are as follows - These are for standard capacity, not XL, and not XXL like you get with Instant Ink:

Black: $16
Tri-color: $17
Total, that's $33 per set. If you subscribe to Instant Ink, which is only $2.99 for 1 month and 50 printed pages, you're only going to spend $36/year. With this program, if your ink dries out from non-use, they send you fresh cartridges. You're literally guaranteeing yourself at-the-ready ink for your printer for just a few dollars more than ONE set of cartridges cost. Plus, the cartridges they send you are EXTRA HIGH CAPACITY so you're going to get a lot of printing out of each set. It really is a tremendous value.

Will this printer connect to a Chromebook?

My Google Pixelbook Go and Samsung Galaxy Chromebooks saw this as an available printer on the WiFi Network. I was able to print basic documents no problem. I did not attempt to scan with it via the Web interface for scanning, and I did not attempt any advanced photo printing as those require software that isn't made for ChromeOS.

I have a hp 4500 now. how does this 4155 compare to the one I presently have

There are several models with the designation "4500" - If your printer still works and you're looking to upgrade, its best not to get hung up on model numbers and shop for the features you're looking for. If you current model meets your needs, I don't think this will be an upgrade by any stretch.

The big standout modern features of this 4155 are as follows:

- Low Price
- Instant Ink subscription compatibility
- Wireless printing and scanning for desktop and mobile
- Apple AirPrint Compatibility
- Auto-document feeder for scanner/copier for large multi-page scans or copies.

is this printer compatible with a hp envy x360

Yes! The ENVY line of laptops/2-in-1 convertibles are just Windows 10 devices, so they work great with all modern HP printers - There is an ENVY line of printers as well that are HP's higher-end line for home use, but there's no need to match them up, as ENVY is just a feature-level statement. You should have no trouble getting this to work with Windows 10 on your ENVY x360 laptop.

will this printer be compatible and be recognized by the new Microsoft Edge? New Edge does not recognize my current HP 1112 printer.

Microsoft Edge doesn't dictate what printers it uses. Windows 10 does. This printer worked fine in my evaluation while using Windows 10 (Spring 2020 update) with the new Microsoft Edge. No issues. I can't speak to your previous device, but I would question whether it is compatible with Windows 10 at all.

No it does not. Its a must-have though, since the guards for the trimmer blade are separate parts, and the device has a hefty charger also.

I am having a difficult time syncing my two headphones together. I can only use one side at a time, is this how they work or can I fix this issue?

I experienced the same problem.Seems to be quality issues with the "true wireless" setup. Cheaper headphones like these tend to have stereo/sync issues.

The best thing I can advise is to put them both into the charging case and fully charge the set. Then put them both into your ears before connecting your device.
