Everything about this TV is perfect. The picture is flawless. Went off the reviews on Internet that stated the 9000 was just as good as the 9500 only 1k cheaper. Got the 9000 was okay but not blown away. Returned and payed 1k more for the 9500 and boy was it worth every penny more. Picture, color and contrast are so much better. Wished I had done it sooner because now I want to replace two other flat screens in my house with the 9500 but will be paying full price because the sale is over.
I didn't go too much into detail about the TV because odds are if you are reading this review you should already have the details of this set.
One thing that many off the reviews I read online left out is that this TV is full array LED not edge lit LED.

Almost a year ago I purchased this lock.Just like many of these five star reviews that are written during the honeymoon period of ownership, I too thought that this thing was really cool and an awesome product. So much so that within a couple of days had bought three more for my home two homes, vacation house and my mothers home.
Fast forward two months later, we started having problems with them locking automatically when closing the door as you exit. At first I thought that we were accidentally touching the lock while closing the door. Since the product was so cool, high quality and expensive I made every excuse for any shortcomings that started to arise. The customer service people were not any help, first they blamed it on the installation, then on user error.
I installed all units myself, and had them reinstalled by professionals same results.
The locks lock by themselves when you close the door 2 out of 5 times. I tested this by not having the fobs (which quit working after three months, changing the fobs battery helped for a few weeks but the $5 batteries get expensive quick) or my phone with me when exiting the house and still the lock will sometimes lock. Essentially locking you out. I have now made it a habit of have the key with me at all times. Even when I go outside to pick up the paper in my robe. Not fun being locked out of your house at 530 in the morning.
Funny how this same thing has happened with all four locks in three different parts of the country. The final straw was when my elderly mother could not get into her home, due to the lock not wanting to work with her fob, phone and the key was too hard for her to turn.
Locks have been removed and packed up as a reminder of a waste of $1,000, hours and health.

OtterBox Commuter Series Case for Apple iPhone 6 or 6s: A polycarbonate shell surrounds a synthetic rubber slipcover, keeping your iPhone safe from bumps and drops. A self-adhesive screen protector is included to minimize scratches on your phone's touch screen.

Have been buying Otterbox Defender cases for both my wife and mother's iPhones since the iPhone 5. Pricey but a great value for the best case on the market.
After buying a Defender case for my wife's iPhone 6 my mother commented that she did not want such a thick and heavy case so I got her the Commuter case.
What a mistake, not much thinner than the Defender. Unlike the Defender the Commuter's fit is terrible, fits like you would expect a cheap $5.00 case to fit. Has gaps on both top and bottom as though the hard plastic is warped. I tried two different Commuter cases on three different iPhone 6's and they all had the same poor fit.
Not what I would expect from Otterbox, very disappointed.

Keep your home secure with help from this Danalock BT100BC Bluetooth smart lock, which allows you to easily lock and unlock your deadbolt-equipped doors without a physical key and features an auto unlock feature that activates when your phone is sensed.
Posted by: Paul420

At first the unit seemed like it was a quality product. This need as soon as installation began plastic base did not fit properly and would strip if mounting screws were tightened enough to keep lock from being lose. Motor sounds like there is no way it will last longer than a few months.
Worst problem was the operation of the unit, inconsistent at best many times the unit will not lock or unlock completely but thinks that it did so time is required to reset unit to make it work. Numerous Bluetooth lockups and worst of all when ever I use it I have this feeling of I hope it works this time.
I bought three of these and they all exhibit the same issues (the only consistency I have seen from the Danalock)
This is more of a tinker's toy rather than a home automation product that will make your busy life easier. More of a novelty than an actual security device.
My experience and time wasted was so bad that I'm going to give up completely on any lock of this type. I had considered the Kwikset Keva if this product failed but based on reviews those customers are not much happier with it.
All three are going to be returned as soon as I can make up the time I lost playing with the Danalock.

I am extremely happy with this Time Capsule. Using it as my base station with two Airport Express, three Airplay-capable sound sys tems and numerous mobile devices (plus a Desktop) attached, I see way better throughput on the 5 GHz band than with my prior Airport Extreme. I have no problems constantly reaching 105+ Mbit/s connection speeds with this product. The hard disk is easily mounted and shows fast and reliable transfer speeds. Thumbs up, Apple.

iPhone 5 features a 4" Retina display, the powerful A6 chip, an 8.0MP iSight camera with panorama, ultrafast wireless, iOS 6 and iCloud. Yet it's the thinnest, lightest iPhone ever.

I've had nearly every iPhone model since the first release in 2007. These phones are amazing! I'm a big fan of technology and when a new handset worth noting comes along in a non iOS form (not an apple product) example a top of the line android or windows phone, I test them out. I do this because i crave the best of the best. And at the end of the day my cell phone of choice backed by so many others is the iPhone 5! Here's why...
It's a phone after all and making and receiving calls is among the best i've ever made on any wireless device! Callers can hear my voice loud, clean, and crisp. And I can hear them all the same. Using the phone app is a joy. It's simple and well designed.
Sending texts is great! I use one thumb and can most likely type in excess of 40 words per minute accurately! Iv'e never had a problem sending or receiving a text!
Browsing the web using safari is also top notch! The iPhone 5 still proves to be among the best (if not the best) mobile internet device out there! I never have any checkering or hiccups using it. It simply just works every time!
Overall this phone is still ahead of it's time! The iPhone 5 simply just works great every time you need to carry out a demand! It's well thought out, highly useful, and exciting to use! I highly recommend it to anyone! A five year old up can use this phone with a very low learning curve!"

This Klipsch Quintet home theater system features 4 satellite speakers and 1 center-channel speaker with Tractrix horn technology for crisp, detailed audio over a broad soundscape. Bass-reflex enclosures deliver booming base with low distortion.
Posted by: Paul420
from Albuquerque
Got these when they went on sale for $349 to replace some perfectly working JBL satellite speakers. I really didn't expect much of a sound difference, but as soon as I hooked up the center channel speaker...WOW...I could not believe what a difference in sound, clear, clean and much more detailed. I was so impressed I bought two more sets before they went off of sale.
Keep in mind they do need a sub if you want to have the full movie theater experience.
The only challenge that I have with these was the wall mounting. The mounts that BB sells look cheap and are made of plastic. They also make the speaker stick four to five inches away from the wall. Going online I found mounts but they were pretty expensive at $20-30 each. Found some okay mounts at Walmart for $9 a pair, not as quality as the BB ones but only made the speakers stick out three inches.

Thing beats anything else out there for my use. I initially bough the Up to help monitor my sleeping habits and to remind me to get up and move at work.
The big problem with the Up is that when it works it seems to be very accurate, unfortunately that is not always the case. The Up data can not always be counted on. Just when you think it is the greatest thing around it drops the ball by saying you took 2,500 steps in the last 15 minutes while you where getting ready for work. Or that you fell asleep two hours later than you really did.
The other problem is the failure rate, this is my third Up. The other two just stopped working with no warning. What I mean by stopped working is completely dead.

This subwoofer features a 10" driver for increased bass response with low distortion and a built-in Class D amplifier for 450 watts of power.
Posted by: Paul420

I have two of these and love them for listening to music. They really seem to be able to hit those super low end feel and don't hear bass frequencies. Truly the Klipsch SW series of subs is the best sounding by far that any brick and mortar BB stores has to offer. I always wait until they go on sale.
My experience with the SW450 is that although they have wall shaking bass on the low end, they seem to lack that "punch" that the sw350 offer. Doesn't seem as notable when listening to music but when watching every day television they don't seem to be as well rounded as the 8in sw350 are.

The day one editions including the soundtrack is a great deal. I like that there is a specific sleeve and a physical soundtrack......Bloodborne >.> ..... just be careful! Make sure that you preorder the day one edition as if you already preordered the regular edition there is a chance you will not get all of these features. Preorder the Day One edition specifically!
