If you like to take professional pictures and videos this is a handy device to have. It provides stabilization and smooth movement capture both stationary and in motion. The phone grip works better on smaller size fines but will fit most larger phones with the case removed. The control of movement allows great shots from any angle. It was great for selfie or family pictures. The quality matches that of DJI's drone products.

Good basic tasks and gaming monitor
on January 10, 2022
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
The monitor comes well packaged in the box. The stand is not hard to attach, however it does require nine screws to attach. This seems unusual since most monitors include stands that attach without tools. A HDMI cable is included, along with DVI to take advantage of the 165hz refresh rate. The menu and navigation buttons are on the bottom of the monitor and can be confusing to navigate but allow adjustment of a basic selection of mode selections, such as gaming, cinema, etc. The monitor supports HDR, but the colors seem to be rather dark. This will be work fine if you prefer to avoid eye strain, but gaming resolutions will not be very vivid. Overall, this monitor is good to use as an everyday general task monitor that is occasionally used for gaming. I would recommend gaming monitors from one of the big computer companies if you are a serious gamer.

Cleaning up after pets has never been easier than with CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro, our BEST CrossWave multi-surface cleaner for homes with pets. It vacuums and washes at the same time, across sealed hard floors and area rugs, combining cleaning steps and saving you time. It’s perfect for grab and go cleaning of frequent pet messes with up to 30 minutes* of hassle-free, cordless run time and it weighs just over 10.5 lbs. Our pet parent engineers incorporated three different cleaning modes: Hard Floor Mode, Area Rug Mode and TURBO PET Mode to boost cleaning performance, especially for pet and everyday stuck-on messes. CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro multi-surface cleaner also has LED headlights to illuminate pet hair, dirt and debris while cleaning along baseboards and in corners. And unlike when you use a mop and bucket, there’s no need to worry about putting dirty water on the floor while you clean, since our Two-Tank Technology keeps the clean and dirty water separate. When you’re done cleaning, CrossWave X7 Cordless Pet Pro cleans itself! It has a self-cleaning cycle that rinses the brush roll and inside of the CrossWave with clean water, so there’s less clean-up after cleaning. Plus, it comes with two trial-size bottles of our PET Clean + Natural formula and two PET Multi-Surface Brush Rolls. And this machine doesn’t just clean up after pets, it helps save them! BISSELL proudly supports BISSELL Pet Foundation and its mission to help save homeless pets. When you buy a BISSELL product, you help save pets, too. We’re proud to design products that help make pet messes, odors and pet homelessness disappear.

Well-built and works great

This vacuum is the all-in-one solution for hard floor or rug types. All you need to do is attach the handle and place it in the charger right out of the box. The charger is super easy to use because it plugs in the wall and the vacuum just sets into the cradle for charging. It includes a cleaning solution and an extra cleaning roller. It can be used as a regular dry vacuum or you just squeeze the trigger and it sprays the cleaning solution for the roller to easily clean up messes. The dirty water tank is easy to clean and it is helpful having two rollers so one can be cleaned and dry while the other is used. Charge time only took an hour for me and the charge lasts for about 25 minutes with heavy use. It is a little heavier than a regular stick vacuum but much lighter than a full-size vacuum. I will use my regular vacuum for the carpeted areas but this one works great on rugs and any carpeted areas that have spills needing to be cleaned up. I have four cats and one dog and this is a great addition to everyday cleaning tools.

Slick and Easy to Use

from Orrville, OH
The unit is small, light and well made. Setup can be done on the unit or through the mobile app. Updates can be downloaded on the app or by connecting to a PC. I like that the display can be set to dark or with scanning, speed and compass displayed. The display and separate alerts can be configured with different colors. Alerts have been accurate and the voice and audible tones are clear and loud. The magnetic mount makes removal super easy and a nice device case is included. This unit looks great, is easy to use and focuses on providing excellent radar notifications. I contacted support one time concerning the app installation and they were nice, knowledgeable and resolved my question quickly. I highly recommend you consider this brand for providing an overall pleasant experience.

Easy setup and works great

The chill pad comes stored in a nice heavy-duty bag and fits onto your mattress easily with two straps that fit around the mattress. The pad is light and not bulky at all. You place your sheet back over the pad and mattress as normal and it stays firmly in place. Setting up the control unit is as easy as a humidifier. You just snap in the hose from the pad to the connector on the unit, fill it with distilled water and turn it on. You then slowly fill the unit with water as it fills the pad. It took less than a gallon to completely fill. You will want to start it on full heat or cold for about 20 minutes before getting into bed. Then you can easily adjust the temperature from the unit or the included remote. It can go from a toasty heat to a relaxing cool in a matter of minutes. My wife and our dog both love it and look forward to getting under the covers each night. The lights on the unit go out after a short while, which is great while you are sleeping. However, with no lights on, it can be easy to get out of bed and forget to turn it off. I wish it had a light that stayed on to easily remind you that it is on. Overall, I am very satisfied and I am considering purchasing another unit from my son's bed. It is rather expensive but worth every penny for the comfort it provides. The only maintenance is draining and replacing the water on a monthly basis.

Comfortable fit and excellent sound
on November 20, 2021
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
The glasses come boxed nicely and the arms are disconnected from the glass frame. Putting them together is as easy as snapping them on. The included charger has two magnetic connections that hook onto each arm when the glasses are folded. Mine was 100% charged out of the box. To set up, you just download the Soundcore mobile app, connect the unit under Bluetooth settings and they are ready to use. The sunglasses are rather dark and work really well in bright sunlight. The sound is amazing and it is much more immersive than wearing headphones or earbuds. I like that when I'm walking or jogging I can still hear noises around me like cars and other people. I was really surprised at how well they sound on calls. I can hear the other person very well and the mic on the glasses also allows them to hear me really well. I like them so much that I plan to order clear frame lenses also that block blue light for when I'm gaming. If you wear sunglasses and like to listen to music as well, these are an excellent choice.

Easy setup and great picture quality
on November 14, 2021
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
The main unit is about the size of a standard digital camera. The included SD card is 64GB, which is more than enough for hours of recording at a time. There are some basic controls on the unit's touchscreen, but most of the setting features are accessed through the mobile app. The charger plugs into a cigarette lighter and has an additional USB port built into the top of the housing. The rear camera is wired and has plenty of length to reach your back window while allowing the wire to be hidden along its path. The display screen can be configured to show only one camera or you can select which camera to display on a smaller screen in the top corner. You can even configure the unit to start recording when the car is stopped if it senses something come into contact with your vehicle. The quality is what you would expect from Cobra and it is nice to know that if there is an event you have it recorded from all angles.

Great range and speed
on November 10, 2021
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
Setup with the mobile app was fast and easy. The base unit has a small footprint and has a modern look. The extender paired easily as well and the app assisted with the best placement. The WiFi 6 speeds are blazing fast and I have over twenty-five devices connected with no bottlenecks. It would be nice if there were more available ethernet ports, but this will not be an issue for most since virtually all modern internet devices use WiFi. I like that it has one 2.5 mhz and two 5 mhz bands. You can set one of the 5 mhz bands dedicated for streaming or gaming if desired. This will be a router that has the latest technology and will not need replacing for several years.

Liquid ink is the say to go
on November 3, 2021
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
The norm has been to buy cheap printers and either purchase expensive ink cartridges or subscribe to a monthly subscription. Liquid ink now allows purchasing a quality printer that will last for years and benefit from long-lasting, cost-efficient, ink. The printer is straightforward to set up and get connected to WiFi. The screen on the printer is small and is not a touch screen. I suggest doing all the setup from the mobile app. The liquid ink is easy to fill, and there is no mess. You can also easily view ink levels from the front of the unit. Print quality is excellent, and pages print rather quickly. The printer has a small footprint and is relatively quiet when printing. It is a perfect size, quality, and feature selection for home or small offices.

Feature packed in a small light package
on November 1, 2021
Posted by: ScubaSteve
from Orrville, OH
Based upon all of the features, I was pleasantly surprised by how small these earbuds are. They are charged in the case and initially, I had them fully charged in less than 45 minutes. To connect them all you do is download the app, open the case, remove the earbuds and select them in your Bluetooth settings. It is really neat that the app will allow you to calibrate the sound in real-time while you are wearing them. Noise-canceling can easily be turned off and there is an ambient setting that allows you to better hear sounds around for outdoor activities. You have the option of either using Android Assistant or Alexa as your voice command engine. I like that I can listen to my music and easily switch to a phone call with a very good mic and sound quality. With noise-canceling turned on, I cannot hear any other sounds in the house, such as my kid, other TVs, or our dog. Sleeping is wonderful with these due to the comfort and how well they block all outside noises. As long as you have the case handing, you can always keep them charged and ready to go. Another neat feature is a find option if you happen to misplace one of the units. The app also has an abundance of sound adjustment options from voice to deep base.

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.
