This is a good CD. Good music to have a pool party to and enjoy Summer. The Deluxe version is a good buy. The second CD is all live songs from a concert they performed in Detroit.

It's pretty nice. The sound is better than i expected. The Superman Vs Batman pattern details were very nice also. The bluetooth so far functions great.
My only downfall so far was the remote. It is very cheap and the superman logo on it is already falling off and i just received it today. I will be exchanging and hopefully the next remote works.
I think any person would like this and you will be surprised by the sound.

My unit is defective. It leaks water all over on the frother side. It also has many more problems. I barely got a chance to even enjoy it. I will be returning it soon.

It was totally defective.

I purchased two of these flashlights. The first one worked good. The second flashlight was greasy and got grease all over my hands. It also made a low pitch squealing sound when i lowered the beam. The beam adjustment was also defective.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

They arrived just in time. My power has been out for three hours. I have my little LED flashlight on. I recommend you have one of these in every room in your house.

It worked great. It was fast with the USB 3.0 and transferred 900 pictures in less than 5 minutes. I lost the camera and this did the job.

The first Vinyl of this album was skipping all over. The song Unforgiven sounded great but was skipping everywhere. I have Vinyl over 30 years old that don't skip like this.
Calling customer service and getting a replacement. I'm hoping the replacement works perfectly.

Breville designers re-envisioned the craft of indoor grilling. Dishwasher safe plates embedded with smart heating elements inspire pitch-perfect results. Top quality non-stick indoor grill with six height settings and integrated drip tray. Adjust the height to avoid crushing food or open it all the way up in 180° barbecue mode. Temperature responsive LCD display colorfully alerts when the grill is ready to go. Tilt the bottom plate to drain fats in the easy-to-handle drip tray. The grill unfolds flat to provide a large cooking surface.

The grill has been working good since purchased. I purchased 2 additional plates from Williams-Sonoma for the grill. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the performance of the Breville Smart Grill.
I would of purchased the extra plates from Best Buy but Best Buy didn't carry them.
I think anyone that knows how to cook would enjoy the grill. I like it better than the George Foreman.

Overall2 out of 5
2 out of 5Great picture and sound but a flawed machine
By jc0769
from Denver
I've been a Pioneer Elite fan for years and was enthused when the BDP-53FD came out and wanted to upgrade my BDP-23FD for the Marvel QDEO video processor, the SACD and DVD-A integration, faster BD load times, and internet streaming features on the 53.
The first unit I bought would not recognize SACDs. All other disc types worked fine, but SACDs would fail with "unknown disc". Returned that unit and ordered another one. The second unit played SACDs just fine, but would constantly hang on loading Blu Ray discs. The entire unit would lock up solid and I would have to unplug the power to get it to reset.
In general, I have to say as much as I love the picture and sound quality of Blu Ray, I hate the reliance on Java and the overhead with loading and menus. It is absurd that even on a new unit like this with "faster loading times" it still takes longer to start a movie than to boot a Windows computer, to say nothing of the problems this seems to create with unit lockups.
When the machine manages to load a disc the picture and sound quality is exceptional.
The other major drawback is problems with HDMI control. This feature must be enabled to take advantage of the PQLS feature (jitter control for PCM music sources#, which does make a nice difference to my ears. I have a Pioneer Elite SC-27 AV receiver which is compatible with PQLS and in fact this works well with my older player #the BDP-23#. However, with the BDP-53 the unit keeps switching the source on the receiver from BD to SAT/TV when using the separate HDMI connections as recommended in the manual for optimal quality #i.e. HDMI1 for video directly to the display bypassing the receiver, and the HDMI2 port for audio only to the receiver).
It is so unfortunate that Pioneer has let their quality control standards decline in recent years, especially unforgivable for the Elite line. These players are not inexpensive and in the past they've usually been well worth the money for audio/video enthusiasts.
If the reliability issues weren't disappointing enough, Pioneer dropped the ball on a few other operational elements of the player. On the front panel they only provide stop, play and eject buttons, and they've done away with pause and skip buttons; but far worse, despite what the photos show on their web site, the front panel display only shows elapsed time, no track/chapter numbers or pause/play indicators. You can view this information on screen with the Display button on the remote, but one of the main strengths of the player is audio not just video, and when listening to music there's no good reason to have the display turned on just to see track info, etc.
The disc tray is too thin and a lot flimsier that previous models. You actually have to pay close attention to making sure the disc is properly seated in the tray before closing or risk a jam up because the recess depth on the tray for the disk is so thin.
Finally, the remote control sensor on the unit is not very good. You have to point the remote DIRECTLY at the unit and even then you often have to press buttons repeatedly for the sensor to recognize commands.
It's a pity that a player with such excellent video and sound would be compromised by QC issues on the most basic functions which one can find working well even on the cheapest players.
It's lamentable that Pioneer has let the Elite line slide as they have and the only way they are going to sustain its viability in the market at these cost points is to seriously reinvest in building solid machines again. The outsourcing has been a failure and if this is indeed their first attempt to bring the line back in house, they failed here to do much better.

What could possibly make it worth three times the cost of a Cuisinart or the George Foremen?
One review stated, "Better than a Foreman" Uh... in what way that could justify paying three times the price of the George Foreman?
It has temperature control. You can preheat it. The grill beeps and lets you know when you have reached your desired temperature. The plates are removable. The drip tray is better.
