The first thing that came to my mind was this was heavier then I thought it would be when I picked up the box when I got it delivered. But with all the heft it is a very strong built scooter. I like this scooter because it has the seat and has a basket in the back. I decided I wanted to do a side job like food delivery and this would do a good job doing it especially since it's electric and not like a bike so I don't have to use a lot of energy like a bicycle would. Anyways it has an advertised max speed of 15.5 MPH with 15 miles of range. I didn't try to get to 15 miles per hour with this where I live because there is a lot of cars and traffic but it went fast enough and with 15 miles of range I could do it for a few hours fine per day which is good. I also have enough range with this to take it to work while taking a ferry between my job and where I live. With the LED light in the front as well helps while at night so you can be seen while on the city streets. I just wished they gave a reflector or something for the back but that's quite easy to do on your own.

Love this espresso machine
on April 9, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
I have use semi automatic espresso machines in the past and I always like cold brew. So it was a no brainer to try this machine out. I have also worked as a barista with a semi automatic machine before and as such I am used to using this kind of machine in a commercial setting as well. The place where I worked at also did cold brew a certain was well but this is quite different. This machine also comes with a frother and a pitcher so you can steam your own milk to make lattes or cappachinos quite easily as well. It has different setting to match the temperature of the water and depending on if you want to make an Americano, Cold Brew, Espresso or just water. I usually just make Latte's with this because that is what I like I don't particularly like Americanos or just shots of espresso and with the included pitcher it makes making lattes at home very easy. To make cold brew with this machine is easy as well. Easier than I thought it would be considering it is different then how I did it at my job but quite easy With this machine at home.

Great gaming laptop for 2024
on February 25, 2024
Posted by: Closingracer
This laptop is amazing. I never owned an Alienware product before but I always wanted one as a kid. That was when I didn't know much about PC's and they just looked cool. Now as an adult the older ones probably wouldn't be my cup of tea but this design is quite nice. It has all the RGB on the keyboard and the ring outside the trackpad and the alien logo lights up but you can also turn it all off and a white RGB keyboard with a quick button press of F2 that turns on stealth mode which is great for when you're outside and don't need to show off all that RGB.
Spec of the Laptop:
Intel Ultra 7 155H
16GB of DDR5 RAM 5600mhz
1TB SSD
Extra 2280 m.2 SSD slot avaliable
Nividia 4070
240hz QHD LCD Display
Intel Ultra 7 155H
16GB of DDR5 RAM 5600mhz
1TB SSD
Extra 2280 m.2 SSD slot avaliable
Nividia 4070
240hz QHD LCD Display
As far as the screen goes it's ok I think they could have gone Mini LED or OLED but it is high refresh and good resolution. Don't need 4K for a laptop 4070 GPU that's included. Now as far as gaming goes I tried the games I been playing regularly on my desktop which is currently World Of Warcraft, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 and Diablo 4. I was getting pretty high frame rates on COD with high setting. WoW and Diablo 4 you don't need that high Framerates but I was getting around 160 FPS in wow in the City Stormwind just walking around. Going to be less if you're doing a raid or dungeon. Diablo 4 I was getting solid frame rates didn't notice any slow downs at all.
The 16GB of Ram is also upgradable and I would suggest upgrading to 32GB since it's fairly cheap.

To the music lovers with a playlist for every mood and moment, meet your new obsession. Bose designed earbuds with OpenAudio technology that combines complete openness to your surroundings with rich, private sound only you can hear. Get your run on, take a call, go all day. Do whatever your thing is and pause for nothing. Compromise? A word you don’t believe in. With Bose Immersive Audio, the open-ear headphones don’t just feel good and look good, they bring you closer to your music. Bose Immersive Audio spatializes music so you’re not only listening to the music. You’re in it. Are you ready to change the way you listen?

These earbuds are pretty great and sound you would expect from Bose! I usually prefer Active noise cancellation earbuds to block out all the noise but these are great when you need to listen to your surroundings like outside on the busy streets or the Subway where you might want to be more aware of your surroundings. Or if you bike or run outside and want to listen to Music but don't want to be distracted while doing those things.
Inside the box you get to earbuds in the case along with a USB Type A cable to Type C.
these are buds that don't go into your ear at all so you don't have to worry about ear tips or fit at all. I have tried other earbuds that try to do similar things to this where it sits on your ear and doesn't go in but I think I like this implantation the most. The bud has a small C shaped thing connected to this ball thing. The ball thing goes behind you ear and the other part wraps around your ear which has the speaker. It feels weird at first but once I got used to it was easy and I barely feel it. Sound wise it is great for what it is. Considering it doesn't go into your ear nor does it go over and cover your ears like ear buds or over the ear or on the ear headphones do you lose the bass response from these compared to those though. Besides that small flaw I found the bass to b clean and the sound overall to be clean and audible. I wish it could get a tad louder but it could be a fit thing I haven't figured out yet.

Great wireless controller for Xbox or PC
on December 16, 2023
Posted by: Closingracer
I have always liked using Turtle Beach gaming headsets in the past and I am always up for using new controllers especially ones that can be used on windows PC and Android phones. I been using the default Microsoft Xbox Series controller for the past few years and it has done the job.
Inside the box
You get the charging dock
USB dongle to use the 2.4GHZ wireless
different tops for the controller for different grip for the joystick
10 Foot USB Type A to Type C cable
Hard shell carrying Case
The controller itself

I have been using this with my windows Pc for the past few days and while I initially thought it to be too big I eventually got used to the size of it and prefer it over the OG Xbox controller I have been using. It also has a small screen which you can use to change the RGB lights, vibration settings and etc. Also you can connect your phone to it for notifications for instagram for example. It also has 4 buttons on. the bottom that can be remapped for different buttons like A or B for easier use as well and its easy to reach without it being awkward as well.

Great for on the go!
on December 14, 2023
Posted by: Closingracer
I have used an Ember mug before and it works great to keep hot drinks like coffee or tea hotter longer than a ceramic mug would. I always bring a tumbler around so when I want to bring my coffee to go it would keep my coffee hotter than say a paper cup and it's also reusable. So I figured I would give this a try because why not. This tumbler is 16 fluid ounces in size and comes with the handle top and a top that gives you a mouth piece as well if you rather use that than just opening the top itself. It also comes with the AC adapter and charging base as well which works like wireless charging your phone. Just put it on top and it charges. You also download an app to set the tumbler up with bluetooth connected to the tumbler as well. You can set a temperature that you can keep the coffee or tea at as well. As far as the battery life goes it lasts long enough where it's not a hinder for you to use it multiple times as well. Also connecting it to your phone is quite easy with only one button on the bottom of the device which you can use to turn it off, on and connect to a Bluetooth device.

Great TWS earbuds with amazing sound
on December 8, 2023
Posted by: Closingracer
I've used countless true wireless earbuds over the years from various companies and this one is the first I've tried in the $400+ range. This has a high bar to be considered great.
Inside the box
you get a USB type c cable to charge the case which is also wireless chargeable
XS, small , medium and large earbud tips
Manuals
Case with the earbuds inside

To set it up it's quite easy and typical in the Bluetooth settings. I have an Android phone and it states you can use Google fast pair but I don't see it. Not a big deal IMHO.
They connect to the Devialet Gemini app (not the Devialet app) and you can upgrade the firmware , change the settings like button functions and the EQ of the buds.
This is the reason why I gave these 4 stars though to be honest I would say 4.5 not 4 stars is because the buds there is no way to turn off the ANC/transparency mode. It's either transparency or ANC. I would just like to turn it off especially with earbuds that cost how much that they do. But as far as ANC goes it's actually quite good. Blocks most noise and I would say sits below the Sony's and the Bose but very close. Transparency is ok but to be honest Apple makes the best earbuds for that so if that's a must have the Airpod pros are the best in my opinion.
As far as Sound Quality goes which is my priority over other features these sound amazing. You don't get the pounding bass but it's clear. The mids and highs as well.

The Ridge is a minimalist, RFID blocking wallet. The main cardholder uses elastic to expand to hold up to 12 IDs and credit cards. The typical leather bifold gets packed with faded receipts and unnecessary cards, resembling something more like a suitcase than a wallet. The Ridge is minimalist without being limiting. It’s about carrying less but always having what you need.

Great minimal wallet
on November 22, 2023
Posted by: Closingracer
I actually bought one of these a few years ago and it's great. I just have one with the cash clip instead of the strap and it is titanium instead of aluminum but I think that isn't such a big deal in my honest opinion. That being said you get inside the box: the wallet, a screw driver and the booklets and a sticker. I guess the screwdriver is to take the back plate off if you ever want to change to a clip instead of the cash strap since this is the version with the cash strap. They both have pros and cons. I feel like with the cash strap you can hold more quality of dollar bills while the clip I find the bills to be more secure in but you can't hold as many.
As far as the wallet goes it's sturdy and they are built to last. My original one is like 3 years old and banged up but the elastic still holds. Not like new but it works fine. They say you should only carry like a maximum of like 12 cards and while I have held more than 12 at times I feel like no more than 7-9 is ideal in terms of long term durability.

Discover smooth skin up to 4 weeks without the use of chemicals or wax, even sensitive areas. Epilation provides longer lasting results than shaving. When comparing with the cost of salon waxing sessions over a year, you’ll save thousands of dollars by epilating. Philips Epilator Series 8000 (BRE700) is designed to use on the legs and body. It now has more hair removal power, with faster and more stable disc rotation than ever.
Posted by: Closingracer
I've never used an Epilator before but now I wished I've known about these sooner. It is better than shaving like almost every other day and it's easy to do at home and in my opinion less painful than waxing. When I first used it did hurt slightly but that's because I didn't know what to expect.
Inside the box:
You get the device
Charger
Two things where one is for sensitive areas like armpits or your area of sensitive skin

You can use this device wet or dry and I prefer to use it right after a shower. It feels less painful in my opinion doing it that way. To use it you want to make sure you're going with the grain of how your hairs are growing so it pulls it out of the root instead of just leaving it in otherwise you might was well shave. This lasts a bit longer than shaving. I use it mostly on my legs and takes a bit of time but it's well worth it. You just can't use it while charging so make sure you charge it fully before each use it you don't want to stop mid way while using it.

The app-connected Polaroid Now+ Generation 2 instant camera gives you creative control through the Polaroid App: Aperture priority, light painting, double exposure, self-timer, manual mode and more—plus 5 lens filters you can attach to the camera. All in a classic design, and now made with 40% recycled materials. Compatible with Polaroid i-Type & 600 film in the original Polaroid instant film format.
Posted by: Closingracer
This is the first Polaroid camera I've used since I was a child and I'm in my 30's now. I actually thought they just went out of business or something since the age of digital cameras and the like but apparently not. With this camera you can get the instant film like you did in the past but with more modern features like syncing to an app. With this camera you can use two different types of film the older 600 or the newer I type film. The 600 is cheaper than the I type by a few dollars and based off what I've searched about the differences between both the 600 will eventually go away.
Anyways you get inside the box
The camera
A set of filters
USB type c cable to charge it

Using this camera is a blast. It still has that nostalgic feel with it. Using it to take photos in the moment is quite fun. They take a few minutes to develop but still it's fun. It's quick and easy to use with no complicated features like a DSLR or a mirror less camera and while doesn't take the quality shots like those it's for the fun inclusive shots that makes this great

Overall5 out of 5
5 out of 5A great gaming laptop at a reasonable price.
By JamesJr
The G751 is the newest gaming laptop from ASUS. It may not have the latest 970M or 980M graphics but the GTX 860M is no slouch and is an upper mid-range graphics chip. Also, this model is the only one that has a touch screen, the higher level models do not. The standard hard drive is plenty large at 1TB but I would have liked an SSD at this price. I have already installed one and I recommend that anyone who buys a laptop to install a SSD at least for the OS when they can.
The screen is very large and plenty bright and colorful, this laptop could easily replace your desktop. The keys have a cool red backlighting with a 10 key when you need to get some work done. Overall, I would highly recommend this laptop for anyone who wants a nice-looking and fast gaming laptop or desktop replacement.

I have had this product for about 3-4 days and absolutely love it! its super thin and portable. It has a great keyboard and overall really fast machine.

3 out of 5Great attempt by HP, but battery is dismal!
By Doug
I waited months for the lightest and thinnest 13" laptop with a Intel core i7. It has many terrific features; size, weight, awesome display, keyboard, etc. But for my uses, the negatives are too much to overcome; TERRIBLE Battery life (I have turned off Bluetooth, turned down display brightness, using power management settings, etc.) yet I am lucky to get 2.5 hours of web surfing and streaming of Netflix! Charging cord is long and bulky for travel. Audio is crisp and clear, but volume is insufficient if there is any background noise in the room at all.
I guess it is back to MacAir; as much as I wanted to get onto Windows 10. Extremely disappointed in HP's claim of 9 hours of battery life. Do they not test their prototypes out first?

While battery life with my MacBook pro is better This isn't that bad... I got around 6-7 hours with it and I was streaming Netflix and web surfing pretty much. A lot more than turning off Bluetooth, lowering brightness can affect the battery life. Low wifi signal can be an issue, high cpu usage and etc. I would also use it for a few days and see if its the same issue.

Laptop is one of the best looking laptops you can buy but the battery life is horrible. If you are running bluetooth, wifi, and your screen is bright; you WILL drop battery life at the rate of 1% every 3 to 4 mins. I've never seen a laptop drop power so fast. Other than that, laptop is great but I will be going back to Spectre 360
