Great speed and easy set up
on June 21, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
If you are a heavy wifi user-- think gaming and streaming-- this router is blazing fast and will take your home internet to the next level. Between ny smart TV, home theater speaker system, security system, cameras, and other smart home devices, i require a fast, stable connection. This router definitely delivers on all fronts.
It has four antennas to direct the signal through your house without the need for a mesh system with satellites in each room.
This router was much easier to set up to use multiple bands, including the 2.4 band that some connected appliances like robot vacuums and smart ovens require.
I pay for "up to" 100 mbps through my inter et service provider and the speed test on this router comes in at 49.18 for downloads and 4.78 for uploads, which is a pretty good jump from 39.20 and 4.01 from my previous router.
The router offers a robust security package with parental controls through their HomeShield service, unfortunately, all of the functionality doesnt come standard, but instead requires a subscription fee of $55 a year. Its not much. But when so many other routers offer similar features for free, it's a sticming point.

This will replace my full sized oven
on June 14, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I'll be honest, when I first received this counter top oven, I was skepical. For reference, I've been using a GE 6 slice quartz toaster oven for a year and a half, and it's been great. I wasn't sure how big of an upgrade the Cafe Couture Oven woud be, but it definitely has some intriguing features that piqued my interest. There are 14 features, and while I haven't use them all, the ones that I have used have all worked out well.
I've used my current toaster oven a lot, not just for toast and bagels, but as a replacement for my full sized oven. I usually cook for 1 or 2 people, so using a large oven is overkill. One of the few things I use my reguar oven for is yeasted bread, so I was eager to try out the proofing function on this oven. I placed an oiled loaf on the roasting pan and used the preset program of 85 degrees and one hour. At 35 minutes the loaf had doubled in size, so I was able to to punch down the loaf and form it for the pan. It definitely shortened the rise time. I used the bake setting to bake the loaf, and while it didn't turn out as well as it does in my full sized oven, I'm not sure if that might not have been operator error.
I also tested the pizza function with a Red Baron frozen pizza. I followed package directions, but it was fully cooked and browned within 8 minutes. When you're learning to use this, make sure you are staying close to monitor your food. It takes much less time to cook than you are used to.
I've used the toast and roast functions, and both turned out well, but these are features that you will find on most ovens, so it doesn't seem necessary to go into a ton of detail-- it's toast.
Two things to be aware of: The size and the smart functionality. This oven is huge. It takes up a lot of real estate on your counter, so if you have a small kitchen this might not be the right countertop oven for you. The second is the utter uselessness of the smart function. You can control the oven from the app or with a smart speaker, but you have to press and hold the start button for three seconds before you are allowed to control the oven remotely, and then you must start the oven within 10 minutes. I understand this is for safety, but if you want to start preheating the oven while you're in the living room watching tv or when you're on your way home from work, you won't be able to do it with this oven. I'm not really sure what purpose the app serves.
Overall, I'm really happy with this oven. Unless I'm cooking for a crowd, this will replace my full sized oven.

Great for coarse, wavy hair
on June 4, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I never thought I would be this excited over a hair dryer! For reference, my hair is long (almost to my waist), 2c, and extremely thick and coarse. I had given up on blow drying my hair because it took over 45 minutes to get it dry, and even when dry it turned out frizzy and fly away. This dryer changed all that.
Using the oscillator really cut my dry time in half. I can get my hair dry in about 20 minutes on high heat and high speed, and it's still silky smooth, slightly wavy and not frizzy at all, even without product. If I want to keep more defined curls, the diffuser adds about 10 extra minutes of dry time because I use a lower heat setting but my curls and waves are defined and glossy.
This is a heavy dryer, but I didn't mind the weight as i don't spend nearly as long holding it. It definitely feels substantial and well-made, which is nice considering the cost.
I still won't be blow drying my hair every day, but for days when I'm in a hurry or looking to upgrade my style, this hair dryer is perfect.

Bass-heavy sound
on May 7, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
This is an okay set of earbuds, especially for travel when I'm not eager to take a higher end set that could be potentially damaged or lost.
Pros:
Voice controlled features- great for hands-off situations like cooking or working out.
Voice controlled features- great for hands-off situations like cooking or working out.
Water resistant- I don't have to worry about getting sweaty during a workout or getting caught in a light rain shower while I'm out and about.
The SkullCandy app lets me customize my listening experience- but only to a point. I was never able to get the sound to my exact preferences.
Battery life out of the case is good for the price point. I got about 5 hours of use at a medium volume before they needed to be charged.
Cons:
Plasticky casing- The casing doesnt feel particulay sturdy. It feels like a few accidental drips would probably kill the casing.

Unbalanced sound- If you like bass-heavy buds, these may be for you. If you enjoy a balanced sound where you can actually hear different instruments, these struggle in that area. Even with the EQ adjustments in the app, the bass overwhelms everything else.
No ANC- I tried wearing these on the plane, and quite a bit of noise leaked through.
Overall- these aren't bad, but they definitely arent high end buds. I'll probably keep them in my personal item for flights so I have an inexpensive pair, but they won't be for daily use.

Comfortable, budget-friendly headset
on May 4, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I've been using a wireless headset, but itvwas frustrating to have the battery run down in the middle of a game. Thid wired headset is a great alternative with a budget friendly price.
The sound quality of this headset was surprising considering the price point. I use this exclusively for a PC, and I'm very satisifed with the performance considering the low cost. They are obviously not a high end headset, but overall, they have a nice, well-balanced sound. I didnt notice anything that I didn't pick up on during the game. Footsteps were clear and the bass didn't overpower the rest of the sounds. The microphone worked well. Others on my game said my voice was clear and unmuddled, and the flip to mute was an easy way to cut the sound.
Of course, sound doesn't matter if thr headset isnt comfortable. I wear glasses, which at times can make finding a comfortable headset a challenge, but this headset was comfortable and easily adjustable. The foam earcups are fabric-covered, a big improvement over the vinyl on my last set. It was much cooler and more confortable.
If you are looking for a nice, inexpensive headset, these are a great option to consider.

Easy to use, great results
on February 10, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
I used to be a big fan of the brushes withbthe replaceable heads, but I moved to Foreo and haven't looked back. Thisbis my second device, and I can't say enough good things about. It gets my face clean but its gentle enough use everyday without aggravating my rosacea. Its easy to use, with vibrations that tell you when to change areas, and a long battery life. I feel like the silicone body is much more hygienic than a spinning brush, and while it may be pricey at first, you save money in the long run by not having to replace brush heads.

Mini-spa day, every day
on January 30, 2022
Posted by: GeekGirl10
To be honest, I was skeptical about this device, but its made a believer out of me. I'm not usually a fan of "smart" beauty devices, but this one was easy to connect and intuitive to use. I've used it with the Foreo masks, regular sheet masks, and my own serums and night cream, and after a week, I've noticed a difference in the appearance and feel of my skin. I prefer to use the Foreo masks, because you get the full benefit in just 90 seconds instead of 10-15 minutes with a traditional sheet mask. Even if i hadn't seen improvement in my skin, i would likely still use this because the warmth and vibrations are very soothing. Its a great way to wind down at the end of the day.

Simple and fun to use

from Conway, AR
Age:35-44
Gender:Female
What a fun scooter! It was easy to set up and charge, and I havent had any issue with low power or slow speeds. For reference, I'm 5'1" and weigh about 180. I usually this for trips that are less than a mile one way, and the battery holds up well. Its advertised as 9 miles, and after a few trips, i still have over half the battery, so it seems pretty accurate. I love having a bluetooth speaker on board for music since headphones woildnt be safe. The only caveat is tgat this is listed as a kids scooter, and at just over 5 feet, the handles come up to my sternum. If you have a younger child, this might be too tall.

Incredible performance in a small package
on December 29, 2021
Posted by: GeekGirl10
from Greenbrier
This is an amazing laser printer, made even more incredible by the small size. I was truly surprised at how tiny this printer is.
Setup was easy on my phone, but you will need a wifi connection to download the HP printer app and get started. But once you have it set up, you're able to print from your phone or from services like Dropbox or Google Drive.
Printing is quiet and fast, and it comes with HP INstant Ink, which I've used before. It's a convenient suscription service that sends new ink or toner before you run out. No more middle of the job store runs because you've run out of ink, and it saves money, too.

Great for a Prebuilt System
on December 29, 2021

from Greenbrier
For the price, you can't beat this prebuilt system. There's nothing high-end with this system, just basic, solid performance. This isn't for someone who wants the ultimate in gaming performance, but it's great for beginners and those on a budget.
Pros:
Looks- Out of the box, this system looks great. It's sleek and fits well into tight spaces. It comes with a solid side panel and a clear one as well depending on your preference.

Ready to go out of the box- It comes with a basic mouse and keyboard so you can get started right away and set-up was easy.
Graphics Performance- the graphics are incredible for a machine at this price point. The games I played all looked great with no noticble lag.

Noisy- I havenm't had any issues with the unit overheating, but the fan can be loud at times, which is annoying.
Limited expansion capability- This machine is what it is. You're not going to be adding extra hard drives, and there aren't USB-C ports, althought there are PS/2 connectors (why?).
Overall, for gamers on a budget this isnt a bad machine. If you go in with your expectations in check, you should be more than happy with it.

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.
