Great Budget Pick
on April 17, 2024
Posted by: GeekGirl10
This monitor is an incredible value for the performance that you get. Super-smooth, fast performance with a high refresh rate and with virtually no lag. Smooth rendering makes playing games an absolute pleasure. After using this for several hours of gaming, I haven't noticed any issues- no ghosting, dead pixels, or odd artifacts. The color rendering is accurate with bright highlights and detailed shadows- no muddy black screen blobs here. I did notice a small amount of light leak at the edge of the screen, but nothing awful. There are a variety of gaming pre-sets to help customize the display depending on your gaming preferences and style.
Despite the budget price, the monitor feels sturdy and well-made. It's weighty enough to be secure on your desk, but not so heavy that it's a chore to move around.
There's not a lot in the way of extra features, and as you might expect from a budget monitor, you will want to connect your own speakers or a headset if you're playing seriously immersive games.

Nice case for everyday protection
on March 27, 2024
Posted by: GeekGirl10
The one downside to pre-ordering a new phone model is the limited number of cases available at launch. When you're spending $1500, you don't want to leave the phone unprotected! I was extremely happy to see new cases released so quickly after the S24 Ultra dropped. I like a lower-profile minimalist case, and this hardshell case is just what i was looking for. The cut outs line up perfectly and the case doesnt interfere with wireless charging. It doesn't add much bulk, which is nice since the S24 Ultra is already a large phone. Best of all, it allows the beauty of the phone to shine through while adding a touch of sparkle. I have the Titanium Yellow phone model-- it's more of a gold-ivory than true yellow-- and this clear case metallic confetti really complements the phone. The case has a raised lip around the screen and camera lens to protect against scratches. I don't think this is the most protective case available. If you're hard on your phone or in harsh environments, this might not be the case for you. If you're looking for a thin case that protects against everyday bumps and short drops, this case is perfect.

No other stick vacuum gives you the convenience of charging, storing and auto emptying like the LG All-in-One Tower. It’s a great upgrade from your regular stick vac you have to empty by hand. Your hands, floor and air stay clean and your CordZero vac is ready to go when you need it next. Plus, make cleaning your floors less of a chore with a quick-release battery and Kompressor technology for uninterrupted cleaning, along with a telescopic wand and convenient attachments that extend your cleaning reach.

Bulky- But earns it's spot
on January 30, 2024
Posted by: GeekGirl10
This is my second LG- CordZero Stick Vacuum, and I was surprised at how large (and HEAVY) this was compared to my previous vacuum, but it earns its place in my home with its features, power, double battery and reliability.
It's a full-featured vacuum with all of the standard crevice and upholstery tools, but what i didn't expect was a second battery. I have a smaller home, so I'm able to vacuum the whole house without needing the spare battery, but if you are cleaning a large home (or a large mess!) the extra battery is a thoughtful inclusion. All of the accessories are stored in the tower, so they are out of sight.
My favorite part of the vacuum is the Kompressor feature. This is new on this vacuum. After each use, the lever slides down and compresses the dirt and debris to allow more room, so you empty the vacuum less often. The vacuum also has a auto-emptying feature that empties into a bag in the tower. This is the default setting, but it can be switched off if you prefer to empty your vacuum yourself.
Pros:
*Excellent cleaning power. I thought my other vacuum was doing a good job, but this CordZero picked up much more dirt. This is a definite upgrade over the A9.
*Two batteries
*10 Year Warranty
*Multiple accessories included, with more available as an add on purchase
*Telescoping handle to reach out of the way areas
*Sleek look that blends in to my home

Cons:
*Heavy- Again, I live in a small home and at times I need to move things around for guests. The tower is staying put.
*Auto-emptying can be loud? Maybe it's just my unit.

Sleek and small- great for travel
on December 8, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I recently purchased a Windows Surface for use when I travel, but the lack of a mouse or touchpad was hindering my productivity a little. Stopping my work flow to touch the screen was a deal breaker, so I've been looking for a decent small mouse to keep in my bag, and this mouse was just what I was looking for. It's sleek and small without feeling dinky or cheap. It easily fits in one of my backpack's small mesh pockets. There aren't any bells and whistles to complicate things. Just pop the top, pull out the USB connector, plug it in, and you're good to go. It's battery operated, so in the event that you run out of power (the battery seems like it will last a good long time- I've been using it a lot and I haven't noticed any drain), you can just pop in another battery without looking for a cable and a charging port. Cursor placement on the screen is accurate and scrolling is smooth. This obviously isn't a high end photo editing or gaming mouse, but for basic use or business travel, this works fine.

Huge Upgrade Mid-Tier Headphones
on December 8, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I've been using cheaper over the ear headphones that I thought was okay until I tried these headphones. What an upgrade! Full disclosure- I don't consider myself an audiophile, but I listen to a lot of music, and I'm autistic, so I always like to have noise cancelling headphones with me for situations where I'm overwhelmed with background noise. These headphones are the best I've tried. They come packaged in a nice zippered case, which makes me feel better about throwing them in my sling bag, knowing they will be protected. I get several days of use out of a single charge. But the best part is the sound. The Bowers & Wilkins app allows me to customize the sound settings depending on what I'm listening to. Music is crisp and clear, with the bass being full without being punchy or distorted. The vocals and treble really come through nicely. It's easy to change modes from pass-through to noise cancelling both in the app and with the dedicated button on the left ear cup. They are extremely comfortable to wear for extended periods and have a nice, solid weight to them without feeling too heavy. While a little pricey, these are definitely premium headphones that are a huge step up from a mid-level set.

Nice basic power strip
on November 9, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
As far as power strips go, this one is pretty basic, but it does its job. Despite the price it feels very sturdy and well constructed. It doesn't feel cheap or fragile at all. I don't know that I would use this for media electronics that benefit from signal noise blocking, but for things such as interior holiday decorations or to pull out in an emergnecy for extra outlets when you have multiple small kitchen appliances hogging outlets during holiday meal prep, this power strip is perfect. Its small size means its easy to hide behind furniture or convenienient to stash in a drawer or closet for a backup without taking up too much space. There definitley aren't any bells or whistles with this power strip. If that is what you are looking for, there are several others that would fit the bill, but if you need a simple, inexpensive power strip for flexibility or as a backup to your more expensive surge protectors, this power strip is a good choice, especially for the price and build quality.

Great Add-On for an Alexa household
on October 5, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
This is a great addition to an Alexa household. We set it up in my daughter's room and I'm able to talk to her from the living room, set reminders for household tasks and chores, and call her to dinner. She loves that she's able to listen to her favorite music and hear audio books and get quick help with tough homework. We've also set up smart bulbs in her room, and she loves being able to turn the lights on and off and set the brightness to a desired level. While there was some concern about having a smart device in my daughter's bedroom, parental and privacy controls are robust. I love that I can set time limits (so no using the device after bedtime) and that I can check her activity on my dashboard. So she has some freedom and independence, but I'm able to monitor her use and guide her or restrict access as needed.
It's easy to set up and integrate into a preexisting Amazon setup. Like all of my Alexa products, this is well made. The screen is bright during the daytime hours, but the screen goes dark during the evening. The Galaxy design is fun. I wish they offered fun designs in the devices designed for adults!

Great sound and good comfort
on October 5, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
These are my new favorite earbud. They have a premium look and feel and incredible sound. The first thing I notices when taking these out of the box is the incredible fit and finish. They look very high end and premium and the case feels solid in the hand.
They are very comfortable to wear. I've had other ear buds that sound great, but cause ear fatigue after wearing them a short time. I didn't have any issues with that with these earbuds. They stayed in for moderate activity (walking, house work, etc) but I'm not sure how well they would work for running or vigorous exercise.
The sound on these is incredible. They highs were crisp without being shrill, and best of all the bass was well-rounded and strong without drowning out the midtones and highs and without the distortion that can sometimes come with strong bass.
I wore these on a flight and the noise cancellation effectively drowned out the rumble of the engines (and most of the crying of a small child), so these may stay in my suitcase for travel.
Wireless charging works for the case, but it's not going to be a huge issue because battery life is great.

Nice traveling non-travel keyboard
on October 5, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
Oddly enough, I actually use this keyboard when I travel for work. I've found I don't really enjoy using tablet keyboard cases or foldable keyboard because ergonomically they are uncomfortable and I find my typing less accurate on them. While not necessarily a travel keyboard, It's small and lightweight enough that I'm able to throw it in my work backpack or airline personal item and use it when needed. I'm able to pair it with my Windows desktop at home, and my Android cell phone and my iPad Pro when I'm traveling.
It's very easy to pair and switch between multiple devices. Key travel is very good and it's comfortable to type on despite its small-ish size. Best of all, it isn't loud, so I'm able to work in airports or coffee shops while on the road and I don't have to worry about disturbing those close by.
Battery life is excellent. I've been using it for a few weeks and haven't had any battery issues. If there's a downside, it's that the numeric keys are oddly placed. If you do a lot of 10 key data entry, this might be a deal breaker, but I only use numbers for light spreadsheet editing, so I'm okay with the sacrifice to get a more portable keyboard.

Easy renter-friendly home security
on September 24, 2023
Posted by: GeekGirl10
This is such an amazing, simple way to feel secure in your home or office without wires or hassels. I live in an apartment, so traditional security systems are out of the question. I was curious about SimpliSafe, but this was my first try and now I'm irritated at myself that it took so long. Set up couldn't be easier. If you can plug in the base and download an app, you can install this on your own. The window and door sensors, motion detectors, and keypad are peel and stick and are easily removeable, making them renter-friendly. The app walks you through the set up process for the whole system. I was able to get everything installed in my apartment and hooked together with the app in under half an hour. The system works best if it's connected to your home wifi, but there's a backup cellular connection for times when you lose internet connectivity at home. The system is easily expandable to include indoor and outdoor cameras, video doorbells, smart locks, and additional sensors as needed. Monthly monitoring is inexpensive and the best part is there's no contract, so if you're unhappy or are moving to a different location, pausing or cancelling the service is easy.

The choice is yours. Whether you prefer making single cups of coffee with *K-Cup pods or full-sized carafes from coffee grounds, the nutribullet Brew Choice Pod + Carafe has the goods to brew both. Just insert your *K-Cup pod or filter, and the machine’s Brew Sense Technology will automatically adjust its display to match, giving you options to brew a 6, 8, or 10oz cup of *K-Cup coffee, or a 6, 9, or 12-cup carafe.
Is the coffee really hot when it comes out?
The single serve is hotter than what I get with my Keurig, but the brewed pot isn't quite as hot as my Mr Coffee.
