Great Grill at a great price.

Upon putting this grill together, I was missing a wheel spacer. Nothing huge, but without it, the grill would feel unsturdy.
I called Charbroils 800 number just to let them know it was missing and was not really complaining. They quickly offered to send me out a new part (6-10 business days) to remedy the problem.
I'm still grilling on it until then, and works like a charm.
My packaging was fine, no damage to product and I'm cooking steak as I'm writing this.
Enjoy!
My Best Buy number: 540254925
What's great about it: Easy to set up, great price, great customer service.
What's not so great: missing wheel spacer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Find out who's at your door, even when you're away from home. Just connect the doorbell via Wi-Fi and use the Ring app on your iOS or Android device to interact with visitors, receive alerts and review footage.

The Ring Doorbell is Junk
By CCRME
This doorbell just does not work. The company falsely advertises it's product by putting a fake video and photo out there of what the product looks like. The video is horrible, it's a small round hole and is fisheye. Not like on their website or the box. The motion detection does not capture anything until people are walking away. The audio stops working about 5 seconds after starting, and sometimes doesn't work at all. The zones will capture cars driving by, after they have driven by, but not people, until they are walking away. Audio and video are not synchronized. When you complain about anything to the company, they just say it's your wifi or internet. In my case, that is not true at all. All have been tested and far exceed the bandwidth requirements of the product. The company is a horrible company, the product is a horrible product. I wonder how they got their good reviews, Hmmmm......

It's your wi-fi. With a good connection, it's amazing.

Expand your network and add network devices with this Linksys five-port gigabit switch, letting you transfer 10 times faster than Fast Ethernet. Five ports offer 5X Ethernet so you can plug and play without missing a beat. Power is reduced to unused ports on this Linksys five-port gigabit switch, saving you money by reducing energy costs.

DOA
By JLF99
...or close to it. I bought it on Saturday and it died on Monday. The power light worked but all the ports quit at the same time. Linksys has a good reputaiton and I have had good luck with them in the past. But on this one occassion, the device completely failed almost immediatley.

Sorry to hear you had issues with the Linksys. In my opinion, a switch is a switch is a switch. I usually get the cheapest, but after reading the reviews and seeing this response from Linksys, I'm going to go ahead and pick up the Linksys. Sadly, the only reason I AM is because I can't find my old Dynex I removed in place of an access point. Too lazy to look. Linksys has my business.

So far....

I switched from a $120 directv bill to an Antenna, Directv now and netlix. I was already paying for Netflix, so it averaged $80 a month in savings. In that time, I had an issue with connecting my antenna into the basement projector. There were no connections to the projector. I found Tablo information on their website and decided to give it a go. I attempted to go cheap, and try an external SSD that was only 128MB. It formatted fine and worked for about 12 hours. Then the hard drive imploded and I was unable to use the Tablo. You cannot use the Tablo without a hard drive, even live viewing (it records small snippets for playback). So, I finally decided to try my old Seagate 2TB drive. The drive is older and was not recognized by Tablo. I then attempted to connect the Seagate with a micro USB cable (Phone) instead of the 3.0 USB cable it uses. After doing this, the hard drive was recognized and has been working flawlessly since.
If you having issues with your hard drive not working, try using a USB 2.0 cable (micro USB/Android charger) instead. Or, spend $50-100 on a new Western Digital Essentials they recommend.
I gave it 4/5 because of the issues, even if they were all my fault.

You're welcome.

Well made product. The app works well on Roku 3, but the Amazon Fire stick app needs some tweaking. Thank you for designing the only product that could solve my issue.

The NETGEAR Dual-Band N600 Router with 8 x 4 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem with N600 simultaneous dual band WiFi router and integrated DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem, provides 8x faster download speeds, up to 340 Mbps. It's CableLabs DOCSIS 3.0 Certified to work with U.S. cable Internet providers.
 

Can this device when connected to the TWC provider deliver lan as well as wifi service

As long as you run the ethernet cords, yes. It has 2 ports for outgoing connections via ethernet. If you need more, pop in a switch or buy a cheap router and use it as an access point. If you are unable to run wires, try using an powerline kit.

Have a Geek Squad Installer quickly and professionally connect your 51" class and larger TV to your video components. We'll also add an Internet-capable TV and video components to an existing wireless network, perform any needed software or firmware updates, and configure two smart TV or smart Blu-ray player apps for media streaming. In addition, we will program the remotes that come with your equipment, ensure that all wires and cables are neatly dressed, and make sure the work space is clean when we finish. We offer a 90-day limited workmanship warranty on our TV Connect.
 

If I purchase: Geek Squad® - 47" and Larger TV and Video Setup, what is additional fee for carting away old TV?

If the TV you are recycling is under 32" tube or 60" LCD, they should take it with them. Make sure to tell them when placing your order and they can add it to your order. That way it is on the agents work order when he comes to install. :)

Only @ Best BuyEasily switch between up to 4 HDMI source components with this HDMI switch that supports 1080p and 3D video for high-definition entertainment and 7.1 surround sound for impressive audio.
 

Can I pair my Rocketfish 4 port switcher remote with my TV remote.

I have a bose system, Apple TV , Cable DVR box and the Rocketfish 4 port switcher. Too many remotes, I just pair my Apple TV to my cable remote can I do the same with the switcher?
I'm not sure, but I seriously suggest grabbing a logitech harmony remote. I have a 650 and 700 series and cannot live without them. They run about $80 for the GOOD ones. You can do almost anything with them, including the rocketfish hdmi selectors. Check other places online before you go, they price match.

No signal

Power outage last night, now no signal.......we have three outbound cables....one green light one red light on....can't get signal.....any ideas?
Try unplugging it for about 30 seconds. If that doesn't work, try taking it in to the Best Buy you purchased it at to see if it's still under warranty. If you don't have the receipt, they can look it up for you. Hope you get it working, I love mine too.

This tilting mount is compatible with most 26" - 40" flat-panel TVs and features an innovative locking mechanism for quick and easy installation. The fingertip tilt allows for smooth movement and optimal viewing.
 

Can this be mounted in the corner of a wall? Or does it have to straight on one wall?

No, you would need a full motion mount for that. I got about 58 hits on this site about $30 and up. Make sure you hit a stud when putting the mount on the wall.
