Excellent vacuum, powerful and lightweight
on March 14, 2017
Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
Received this today. It's great! I have 2 dogs and 6 cats so I'm perfect for this device.
1. Assembly is extremely easy, no tools required. It's a push and click system that requires very little force and takes 20 minutes to get up an running. Very user friendly.
2. Suction on this is as advertised, on my first run the vacuum was even picking up the pet fresh powder I use that my previous vacuum left behind. Made the rug stand and looked great.
3. The ball system is just a great way to use a vacuum. It's makes manoeuvering the vacuum so much easier and it's less strain on your joints, great for someone with hand,arm and wrist injuries.
3. Light, very light. This surprised me as it's a well built system and well built usually comes with weight.
4. The wand is ok it's going to take a little while to get used to but the suction is great and cleans the cat tree with ease.
My only negative and it's a personal preference and that is at this price I'd love a retractable cord instead of a self wind. Negligible I know.

By far the best blender ive used

I've gone through several high end blenders, and i have never found one that i can say i loved... Until now.
This thing is great, it starts and stops on its own, no shaking or anything like that and it blends fantastic, no chunks at all no matter what i have thrown at it. My strawberry daiquiris are top notch with this.
Its well made with some heft behind it and it stays totally stable while in use, its really easy to assemble and really easy to clean, the spout makes this thing a breeze to use. Veggies get chopped up well also, not puree but chopped more than enough for you cooking needs.
This is by far the best blender you can get today and you would be mad to miss it.

Simple with amazing coverage

So let me get this out of the way as this is the only negative for me, these are ugly, each module is around 6-7 inches tall and have a design that makes it so these cannot be disguised like others.
Now we have that out if the way let me tell you just how good this setup is. A simple process of placing your modules across your property and then downloading the app and setting up in minutes. I tested this in my place of work which is around 5500 sqft and we have many walls and a server room and we got full signal right across the building front to back and side to side and even outside. Not restarts or dropped signal, very stable and reliable. I'm very impressed by this system and its now our office wifi, many people connected and works fantastic. Highly recommended

Does exactly what you want it to!

So ever since the 7th generation iPhone was announced I hated the thought of no 3.5mm headphone jack. The thought of choosing to play music or charge my phone really annoyed me. I like to lay in bed at night and fall asleep while listening to music and by that time my phone needs to be charging. I've tried some of the cheaper alternatives but they're not very good, you get what you pay for. This Belkin works great and does exactly what I need it to do, I can now charge my phone while listening to music, no loss in audio, no loss in charge speed, it works fantastic and is the only choice I feel for someone who likes to listen and charge at the same time

Its awesome, a great buy for anyone!

Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
This machine is great. It's a little larger than I imagined but no issue and its not ugly, I thought it would be smaller but it's about the size of a regular blender.
This thing is a beast when it comes to making smoothies. It really does blend everything down.
The bowl works great too. We made a few snacks and the salmon patty recipe today. It really does a good job at chopping and infusing.
Overall this is a great buy. If you're used to $50 blenders and food processors try this. You'd be surprised at how much of a difference a change in diet can make to the way you feel and your overall health.

A simple smaller way to provide a great network
on December 8, 2016
Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
So let me just get this out of the way, if you are looking for a WiFi solution and want something that's simple to use, simple to set up, not obnoxious to look at and provides excellent speeds then look no further, you have found it.
This is not the tinkerers router, its not for the person who wants to flash custom firmware, tweak this and tweak that, what this is... Is a very simple and very efficient router or routers if you have the 3 pack like im reviewing.
Packaging is simple and very Google, it comes with the hubs, chargers and an Ethernet cable, very simple. Also in the box is a brief start guide. Now to set this up you will need an Android or iOS device, you cannot set this up with a PC so be warned. Once you have set your hubs up in the place or places you wish to have them you simply download the app for your device and load it up, it will look for the device and you can set up from there using your Gmail details, its really that simple.
The hubs are not like your traditional router, they are not big, bulky with a plethora of flashing lights, they are small white units with a soft white glow to let you know its working, that soft white will change to orange if no connection is found from your modem. they are small and could almost be mistaken for an air freshener and that for me is great, they blend in with your home unlike most routers.
Now for the usage, simply its been fantastic, i have a PS4 Pro, Xbox One S, PS3, Wii, 3 FireSticks, a Mi Box, 2 Apple TV's and 2 Roku's, 3 TV's, 2 iMacs, an iPad, a Galaxy Tab S2, an iPhone 7, 7 Plus and S7 Edge and Playstation TV connected and it doesnt bog down, many of these devices are being used at once.
the Google Wifi has AC1200 2x2 Wave 2 capabilities and supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz 802.11a/b/g/n/ac networking. Setting up the WiFi system is done through Google’s new WiFi app for iOS/ Android. The app walks you through setting up a new network, naming it, securing it with a password, and placing the WiFi units throughout your home. It also lets you check your network speeds, from both your ISP to the modem and from Google Wifi to your device, and the strength of signal between each node. Google’s Network Assist feature will provide tips on how to improve performance by moving a unit to a different location or will tell you when the internet from your ISP is not functioning.
I have been able to game and stream UHD content on all hubs with no issues, its worked extremely well.
Its prices really well too for a Mesh system, others do go for over $100 more and at $129 for a single unit i personally think its a grea deal.
If you want a system that you can set up in minutes... like less than 10 minutes, something that's clean and easy to use, looks good and blends in to your home then this is for you, its a great simple effective way to have a strong network throughout your home and office
Would i recommend it? YES! its now my home network and will stay this way for the foreseeable future

Fast charging shaver, does a good job
on November 16, 2016
Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
Now these things for me are never going to replace a good old razor but that's not the point if this.
What this is, is a multi tool to groom, you can shave with the correct head, you can trim, you can do nose hairs, it even tells you on the box that it's ideal for manscaping. It's a fast tool that will help you when needed.
Build quality is like most in this price range, a lot if plastic, good grip and a powerful motor. It shaves really well, sometimes to well as I found out having to pretty remove my facial hair due to using a wrong setting, but it goes through your hair no problems, it doesn't pull or pinch. It's great for defining lines and that trim work that is slow and tedious with scissors. It comes with a nice carry case that fits everything and more inside, it's easy to transport and is ideal for that guy who travels a lot, it's a convenience.
I do recommend this, it's great for what it is

A really fast router with rock solid connection
on October 31, 2016
Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
Ive used this router for almost a week now, i believe you can not use a router for a night and then do a review, a week is a short time in its self.
This router though is great, as a router it does what i needed and does so in impressive fashion. The reboot time to reconnect on this router is fast, it doesn't spend a lot of time trying to reconnect. The range on this router is also very very impressive so if you are looking for something with wide coverage then this router is for you.
The router also handles multiple devices exceptionally well, i have over 10 devices in my home either hard wired or connected wireless and it doesnt bat an eyelid, it just powers on.
Set up is extremely easy with an exceptional priority list allowing you to simply drag and drop your devices as to what gets deemed as most important. A very simple interface that doesnt bog you down with a lot of jargon, Linksys did a really good job of simplifying this process. Within minutes you`ll be online with your own SSID`s and protection.
Build quality is also a a bonus on this unit, while it may not be pleasant to some to look at the overall quality of the product cannot be ignored, very sturdy with a good sized heat sink, this will last for sure.
Parental controls work well with this device also.
In short this is a really great router, with a simple setup interface that even the novice can tackle, its built well with a modern take of the super awesome predecessor/ If you want speed, range and no hassle then this is the router for you

The best Android phone you can buy!
on October 20, 2016
Posted by: EnglishD
from Fairborn, OH
The Pixel XL has a 5.5-inch Quad HD AMOLED display that pops, its a high quality screen and matches that of other well known Amoled devices, its that good.
Rocking the new Snapdragon 821 processor and 4gb of ram you wont find anything but smoothness when using this devices, from the moment you use it you will see just how fluid everything, and credit to google for making the software to take advantage of the hardware
32gb of storage or 128gb, kinda sad we didn't get a 64gb option also as 128gb is more than ill ever need and 32gb is just not enough for me personally
Gorilla glass and like most phones its a fingerprint magnet
Finger Print sensor on the back works liek the previous Nexus with an added bonus, you can now slide your finger down the scanner to lower the notification shade on the phone
12.3mp camera with large pixels at the back and 8mp at the front, this is another place Google have nailed it, the camera is amazing. Crisp clean images to rival any other handset. For video this is where Google may just stand in a league of there own, not only is it great at capturing detail but by placing the camera with the gyroscope it has created some of the most amazing stabilization ever seen, it has to be seen to be believed
USB C with fast charging of course.
Only a single firing speaker but in my opinion the best you can get for a single fire system, it has some good sounds for what it is
At 3,450mAh, the Pixel XL's battery is among the largest we've seen in a flagship Android phone this year.
Aesthetically the Pixel XL is a little bland, with a very large chin thats there for no reason other than symmetry, it feels great in hand but lacks that visual pop you get with some of its
Not only does this device work great on Verizon, but i have also used this on T-Mobile with no issues
So to sum it up, the Google Pixel XL is the greatest phone i have ever used, its slick, its easy to hold, its a pleasure to navigate, while it may not be a looker on the outside its Googles magic on the inside that really makes this device shine and for me is a glimpse of the future. for a first generation true #MadeByGoogle device its really remarkable
Oh and Google assistant is great... and tell it "Im feeling lucky" for a really good surprise

When i get routers, i dont see why anyone would review it after a few days use, these things need time and now iv had this a little while i can write my review and no im giving my honest opinion.
First of, this router is big... like really big and not something you can place to hide away, its an enterprise router not a home router though can be used in a home.
The range of reception on this is excellent, it by far given me the best coverage around my home and my office, the tri band is perfect and allows multiple connections without any loos of quality to your service.
Its been super reliable for me, in the 6 weeks ish that i have had this i have only has to restart it once and i honestly think that was more to do with my actual modem than the router.
Its easy to set up, the software makes everything simple and very self explanatory.
If you are a small business or have a larger home then this is a unit i would 100% recommend as this will offer you great speeds and awesome ranges.

Accept no VR limits with this Alienware Aurora gaming desktop. Its 2TB hard drive and 16GB of Intel Optane memory provide powerful storage performance, and its six-core Intel Core i7 processor and 16GB of RAM support bandwidth-intensive applications. The VR-ready NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics of this liquid-cooled Alienware Aurora gaming desktop keep action-packed scenes free from screen tearing.
I’m interested in buying this PC as my first in a long time. Would this run over watch, Diablo 3, and World of Warcraft at max settings?
Surround yourself with robust audio performance in a slim package with this LG ultra-slim soundbar. Compatible with the latest LG televisions, the compact soundbar pairs seamlessly to deliver an immersive audio-visual experience. The 4K high resolution audio on this LG ultra-slim soundbar lets you hear the action in every scene.
Two questions: 1) Since this sound bar does not have a center speaker, how is dialogue clarity? 2) Can the subwoofer just be used occasionally; that is can it be turned off and on?
This is the main reason I love this, I have had various setups and the dialogue in action scene have sucked. This however works fantastic. And yes you can power off the sub but you can also turn the sub volume down too so you wouldn't need to power off

Is this phone only available on Verizon?
It works on any carrier, the difference between the Google supplied phone and the Verizon one is that the bootloader is locked on the Verizon version, which isnt an issue unless you like to modify your device, my Pixel XL is working just fine on T-Mobile
