Great portable gaming combo!

The Razer Battle Bundle - DeathAdder V2, BlackShark V2 X and Gigantus V2 M is a nice combo pack that includes the DeathAdder V2 wired mouse, BlackShark V2 X communications headset and the medium size (an understatement) Gigantus V2 mouse pad (the pad ships flat so there is no waiting for it to uncurl).
The set is great for adding to a keyboard and desktop computer or used to augment a laptop. It is a mid-level gaming combo – nice price – nice performance.
The BlackShark V2 X headset provides clean audio, good mic clarity and nice, passive sound isolation in a very light aviation-style headset.
The DeathAdder V2 wired gaming mouse uses 20, 000 dpi optical sensors and hard-wearing switches to deliver excellent responsiveness, and the lightweight ergonomic design is both comfortable and easy to travel with. The Speedflex cable ensures a flexible yet durable connection to your computer. All in all it is a great package.

Very Portable - Strong Bass, Compact Size
on May 26, 2021
Posted by: jhancock
from CHICAGO
The XB13 wireless speaker with EXTRA BASS TM technology and a passive radiator with a full-range speaker to enhance low frequencies, delivers deep bass and great sound. The speaker has a compact design (about the size, but less tall than my coffee mug and about the same weight as the mug is when half full). It has a durable protective case (IP67), with a multi position strap, that you can attach to almost anything (backpack, wrist, tree, table umbrella etc.). Small size – take anywhere – fits in my cargo pocket.
You can use 2 XB13s wirelessly connected for stereo. Great battery life – close to 20 hrs for me. Nice mobile phone app. You can have hands free cellular calls using the built-in microphone. Google technology’s Fast Pair allows almost instant pairing. iPhone connections are easy to make. It comes with up-to-date Bluetooth® and USB-C for great connectivity.

Stylish, Solid and Light- great performing laptop!
on May 23, 2021
Posted by: jhancock
from CHICAGO
I really like the raised screen profile, the raised screen elevates the rear of the computer when the laptop is opened, this also elevates the speakers on the beveled sides allowing for even better audio reflection and dispersal (already quite good). Overall, the sound is very nice for this class of machine. The form factor is about as compact as you can get and still be functional without making it lager and heavier. It is very solid and stylish at the same time. It is very thin and still very sturdy. Although I would not recommend it for heavy duty gaming or video editing it is more than adequate for casual games and quick video production. The port selection is more than adequate for most setups, having multiple USB 2 & 3 ports, HDMI and SD card slots. It runs cool and quiet. It weighs next to nothing. All in all it functions well, looks great and is very study while still being compact, light and tuff.

Quiet, Clean allergen free air!

The 3M Filtrete is a great HEPA air cleaner. It has a clean, attractive yet unobtrusive design with a dimmable display. It has multiple speeds for handling small to large amounts of air impurities and also an auto mode that is superb. Noise level performance is fine, allowing for conversations even in close quarters. It compares well across industry standards such as CADR (clean air delivery rate). 3M has been making industrial and residential filter systems for years and this experience shows. Power consumption is low. Set up was very fast and simple. The mobile app works great and provides a lot of functionality and information.

Mature female tried on face. The printed instructions should be much more clear and in a larger font. It is understandable that the cautions were significant and frankly a bit concerning. Following their instructions closely, the use was very straight forward. At first she was taken aback by the strobe effect light, seemed to be a spark, but after using it, that was not an issue. She had no bad reactions to the Smooth Skin - Bare+ IPL Hair Removal System. She did a skin test as her skin is quite sensitive. She is encouraged, but still needs to see the full effect over time. There was a blue light and a fan, and a flash of white light that tells you that it was affecting the area. She had no physical tingling. The 10 minutes to do your entire body is a little on the puffery side. Due to limitations in the manual, I was not able to test it on myself. Watch their videos. Read the manual. Should work well for most people that meet the skin type requirements.

Great blender for full family nutrition!

It is large, but stays on my counter, with a 1,500-watt motor the NutriBullet® Smart Touch Blender™ Combo 1500W is loud, but then again all powerful blenders are loud. The Smart Touch has a user-friendly touchscreen, full-size (read humongous) 64-ounce pitcher with a locking lid and two different sized smaller tumblers, a tamper and a nice recipe guide. The smart touchscreen makes the selection of blending settings easy. It features controls for four settings: purees, soups, frozen drinks and smoothies. It has four speeds — pulse, low, medium and high along with a digital timer that counts down when using presets or that shows time elapsed when using the speed controls. It comes with suction feet that stick (quite strongly) to smooth countertops. I tilt it to the side to break the suction pads loose. No dancing off the countertop. The settings are perfect time-wise - no guessing. It does a great job on soups and smoothies. The construction is very solid with a nice look. The lid is super strong and seats quite firmly by pressing it down on to a locator pin.
Solid, great looking and very functional.

The filter can last up to 12 months without replacement. You can manually adjust the fan speed or use sleep or auto modes. It also has a child lock mode. It is designed for extra-large rooms of 750 square feet or more – my room 21x37. The ACH is 4X, this air purifier cleans my room about every 15 minutes.

The Smart Mode learns your habits and adjusts the runtime and settings appropriately. It has an indicator for filter replacement.

Great Tweakable Headphones - BASS, BASS & BASS
on January 22, 2021
Posted by: jhancock
from CHICAGO
To start with the provided “case” is a fitted canvas pouch with a fold-over and buckle closure that is easily stowable and I think is pure class. Combined with the sturdy foldable construction of the headset it makes for easy, compact carrying. Comfort wise they are a comfortable fit for me – just the right amount of clamping pressure. At no time does the cushioned headband put its weight on the center top of your head due to a cut out – nice. The weight is reasonable coming in at just over 11 oz.. These are not designed (similar to most over the ear headsets) for weather or exercise and are not waterproof. They have all around quite good response and sound while the Bass slider is great for instant Bass gratification – my biggest aural desire. They use Bluetooth 5.0 and AAC and provide great battery life. They use a USB-C charging cable which can also be used for direct connect playback. My playtime typically exceeds 40 hours on a charge. They are similar to most of my other over the ear headphones in size and fit my ears perfectly. The earcups are cushioned and quite comfortable, providing good isolation from ambient sound and noise. The control buttons are solid with subdued clicks. Switching Bluetooth sources is easy. The set-up using the phone app runs you through a diagnostic hearing test that adjusts the equalizer settings for balancing your hearing and headphones to your taste.
I LOVE the Bass slider!

The frother is also removable for easy cleaning. Choose from one of four different brew styles; classic or rich for a traditional hot cup of coffee, over ice for an iced coffee that's never diluted, or specialty to make a cappuccino or latte. Clean function, dishwasher-safe parts, removable Ninja pod adaptor and frother allow you to easily deep clean your unit.
Can you tell me more about the thermal carafe? Is the inside stainless steel?

Hi. Since this is sold in America that would imply it is to be used in America. So I was wondering why the specifications here list the voltage requirement as 220v? While I do agree that 220v grid is indeed a better design, I live under tyranny of 120v...
