Easy setup and great video quality
on November 16, 2017

I have owned several wireless cameras and Arlo is by far the best. Setup is super easy. The rechargeable batteries are pre-charged and syncing the base and cameras is fast and simple. The hardest part of the entire setup is determining where you would like to place the cameras. The base is easy to mount and the magnetic base firmly holds the camera and allows a wide range of adjustment. The picture quality is very clear and has a wide range to capture everything close by. The units seem very well built and I look forward to using for a long time to come.

Great for quick clean ups

I have owned several stick vacuums, and this one does not disappoint. Charge time is reasonable and picks up dirt well. It is much easier than bringing out a large vacuum for quick clean ups.

Great sound

The sound is what I would expect from Sony. All ranges sound good and it effectively blocks outside noises. I enjoy running with them or just relaxing. Quality is well made and comfortable to wear. I had no issues pairing to my phone.

Works great in open area
on October 23, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
This vacuum is very convenient in keeping large open areas clean. It is helping to modivate my 5 year old son to keep his toys out of the floor so he can watch it run around. It vacuums well and it is neat to watch it return itself to the base to charge. It does not do as good as my Shark upright, but works well between thorough cleanings.

Super convenient

This blender is very easy to use and clean. It makes dicing up onions or mixing up your favorite drink a breeze. It would be nice if it were cordless, but overall it is a well made quality unit.

Easy to setup and backup your phone data
on October 4, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
Setup of the unit out of the box was super easy. Just download the ixpand base app, connect your charge cable and plug the power cord into the unit. There is no configuration of the app and it automatically starts backing up your contacts and files immediately. A plus is you can clean up all backed up files from your phone with one click. You don't have to worry about accidently deleting something off the phone that is not backed up. The SD card memory is removable so if you fill it up you can easily swap in another card. If it was a wireless charging base, and could transfer files to the base via Bluetooth, I would give it five stars. This would be a cool function to use with the new iPhone 8 and X phones, but it really doesn't matter on older devices. This will be great for traveling and most of the time when I'm not at home it is better to be able to charge the phone while using it. You are not able to use your phone with wireless charging on the base. I changed my mind while typing this review and I'm to give it five stars. It's not fair to remove a star for doing what it's designed to do so well. The unit looks built very well and will hopefully last for a long time. I believe I'm going to be taking my wireless charger to the work office and use this for charging and backing up my phone on a daily basis. If you have a computer with an SD card slot it will be super easy to take photos off your phone and load them on your computer.

Great little set of headphones
on October 3, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
These Bose headphones are the perfect companion for traveling and working out. The durable case also charges the headphones and provides up to 10 hrs. of additional playback time. They fit really well and are comfortable. I can wear them for an extended amount of time and almost forget I have them on. It is really nice to have the Bose quality in such a small and compact size. The headphones are small but the sound is not. Bass is really good and outside noise is blocked out well. They are water resistant so you don't have to worry about getting sweat on them, or getting caught in a rain shower.

Easy setup and configuration
on September 28, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
With so many high-end routers on the market, D-Link did a good job at stepping into the whole house Wi-Fi market. I've owned all the major brands and was using a Linksys Velop three node router system before setting up the D-Link. The product was packed well and the instructions are simple and easy to understand. All you have to do is screw in the antennas and connect the power to the base and extender. No configuration is needed to connect the units. The router configuration software has all the basics. I agree with other reviews and it would be nice if you could differentiate the two wireless bands. This is not a real big deal because most similar routers are doing this anyway to keep load balancing simple. I was able to connect all my devices effortlessly and performance so far has been exceptional. The extender can be moved easily as needed to give better coverage. The price point makes it a very competitive option if you are looking for complete WiFi coverage in your home.

Very easy to setup and get started
on September 27, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
The projector is lightweight and small enough to easily transport. Setup was a breeze. I connected a HDMI cable (not included) to my desktop computer and had a second display up in running in minutes. The adjustments for viewing size, orientation and focus are simple and the instructions are easy to follow. The resolution and color quality is top notch and the unit is not very loud. The front vent does produce a considerable amount of heat so make sure it has plenty of room. I highly recommend if you are looking for a quality projector at a good price.

High quality bagless vacuum
on September 20, 2017
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
First off I have to say I'm not a big fan of bagless vacuums. However, I'm very impressed with the quality and functionality of this unit. It was well packaged on arrival and easy to put together. It comes with four attachments and the hose disconnects to use the tools. The tools are some of the highest quality attachments I've seen in a vacuum. The crevice tool itself it about a foot long. One drawback is that the hose is fairly short, but it seems to stretch well. The floor attachment is compact and easy to maneuver in tight places. I'm accustomed to a vacuum that is very flat when going under furniture and this one doesn't go under short couches or beds. The entire unit swivels well to effortless cover all areas. The two small headlights on the front look cool and the overall look of the unit is nice. My wife just vacuumed the house with our bagged vacuum earlier today and I was surprised at home much dust and dirt the Shark picked up. Empting the canister is what I've always not liked about bagless vacuums, but this one definitely is the best one I've seen. The canister is designed in a way that when you open the bottom lid all of the trash comes out easily. There are three filters in the unit and all are washable so there are is nothing to have to buy maintenance wise. It weights thirteen pounds but is easy to pickup and carry around. The vacuum is about as close to perfect as I've seen in a bagless unit. Shark is good name brand and I plan to make this my primary vacuum and save on bags with my old one.

Enhance your multimedia experience with this 15.6-inch Dell G7 gaming laptop. Its VR-ready NVIDIA GeForce GTX graphics board provides seamless, stunning images on the Full HD display, and its hexa-core Intel Core i7 processor and 8GB of RAM handle extended multitasking. Run applications efficiently with the 256B solid-state drive of this Dell G7 gaming laptop.
Will the Windows Hp Mixed Reality be compatiable with this laptop? If so, would games such as “Beat Saber” run at a decent frame rate? Thank you very much
Mixed Reality should run OK on this laptop, however I suggest at least 16 GBs of RAM to run smoothly with all VR applications.

Conquer virtual enemies with this Dell Inspiron desktop. It has an AMD Radeon graphics card with 8GB of dedicated video memory for fast image rendering, and its powerful AMD Ryzen 7 processor and 16GB of DDR4 RAM run multiple programs, games and browsers simultaneously. This Dell Inspiron desktop has a 1TB hard drive for plenty of long-term game storage.
What is the power supply for this pc
My build only has a 375 watt power supply, which I was rather disappointed in considering it is branded as a gaming PC.
