Great Machine for Coffee Once it's dialed in
on January 25, 2019
Posted by: ViperElectric
from Knoxville, TN, USA
This is my first experience with a true Espresso machine so it was quite a learning curve to get everything figured out. But overall the machine works great. I had to get a proper bur grinder for my coffee as store ground coffee would not really work well and my blade grinder could not get a consistent grind either. Once I had the grind dialed though the machine worked great. It comes with both pressurized and unpressurized baskets for the porta filter and the fact that it does steam is great for the steamed milk and foam. Once everything was set and I learned what I was doing it was a great machine to use for my daily coffee or three, without to much hassle. I would however note that this machine might be difficult to use at first for someone with no experience with espresso style coffee, otherwise its great.

If you want Bass this is the product to get
on November 28, 2018
Posted by: ViperElectric
from Knoxville, TN, USA
After using these headphones I can say that I have never had more bass in any other set of headphones ever. This can be a good and a bad thing.
The good is that the sound with the bass turned down is actually decent and you can turn the bass up just enough to give a full rich sound for most music (at least that I listened to). Also the headphones are comfortable and can be used in both wired and wireless setup which is kind of nice.
The bad, well with the bass turned up ( and I mean like up to 11) the sound is pretty terrible. I like the idea of having the ability to add more low end to what your listening to but the quality needs to be better to make it really worth it, and unfortunately the quality is not there at upper levels.
I'm still giving 4 stars though because the overall comfort and sound with the bass turned down to a reasonable level is still decent.

Most people have used Microsoft Office for years, not much has changed, but it is now much easier to manage multiple computers and users under one account, that part is the part that is nice. Also it is nice that you get 1Tb of cloud storage with the subscription. This package is great if you have several computers in the house and they all need office on them. Otherwise its the same great office applications that you are use to using so no learning vastly different ways of working on things.

Great Macro Key set not just for streamers
on October 15, 2018
Posted by: ViperElectric
from Knoxville, TN, USA
This is an awesome piece of tech, the customize-able display buttons make it very nice for people who use a lot of macros. This product may be marketed towards streamers but its great for anyone looking for a custom macro key set. I thought at first that only having 6 buttons would be an issue but with the way you can create folders and arrange items in them it is no issue at all.

Ninja Foodi's TenderCrisp pressure cooker allows you to achieve all the quick cooking and tenderizing wonders that you love about pressure cookers. The Foodi's Crisping Lid allows you to air fry, bake/roast, and broil. That means you can give your tender, juicy pressure-cooked meals a golden, crispy finish. The secret is TenderCrisp Technology, which produces the perfect combination of heat, fan velocity, and air circulation to give your food even crisping from top to bottom.

Overall for a machine that does so much, bake, saute, pressure cook, steam, and air crisp(air fry) it does surprisingly good. The pressure cooker is a great addition for any kitchen that does not already have one, and it is a good space saver if you need both a pressure cooker and air fryer (although they call it air crisping). Heating times are reasonable and for a multi purpose machine it's pretty good at what it does. The only thing I would say is it's not quite as good at air frying as a single use machine, but it is good enough to get the job done.

Explore your creative side with this Polaroid OneStep+ instant camera. Featuring Bluetooth connectivity, this camera connects to your smartphone and provides a suite of creative options such as light painting and double exposure through the integrated Polaroid Originals app. This Polaroid OneStep+ instant camera makes it easy to take the perfect close-up shots with the included portrait lens.

This camera is every bit like the polaroids of past. Cartridges are easy to load and the camera is easy to use if you want to just point and shoot. The connected bluetooth app is great for getting more technical with your photo shooting.
My only gripes would be that the film is expensive (to be expected on a niche product) and there are only 8 shots in a film cartridge. If price is no worry or you have a special use case for this type of photo I guess that is not as much of a deal breaker. Also it seems like these new photos take longer to develop but that might just be my old age remembering wrong.
Overall great direct to film camera.

This monitor is very good for a 1080p monitor. The IPS panel makes it so that viewing angle is not an issue and the display is nice and bright for the room I am using it in. Overall the product seems well build and has clean lines and I like the minimal bezel design.

Featuring two custom lighting zones and 6.8 million colors, this Alienware wireless gaming headset lets you create a custom look that accents your signature gaming style.

This headset has some really good sound. The generated surround sound is good and the modes you get in the software really do a good job of adjusting to different kinds of listening, such as music, movies, and all different types of games. The enhancements that are done to the sound can sound a little artificial at times but overall it is a good sounding headset.
My one complaint would be the comfort. The ear cuffs are comfortable and I would be ok wearing them for extended periods although they can get a little warm if your in a warm room. The headband though just seems cheap. Instead of having the same or similar material for the head strap they use some sort of air filled rubber material. I assume it is supposed to be lighter on the head that way but it just feels cheep for such a headset. Build quality seems ok but I have not had them long enough to tell how they may withstand normal use over time.

I have had this a few weeks now and already had it kick in a few times (because power at my home is slightly unreliable). It switches over to battery power without a hickup and keeps all my gear powered for the short outages we normal have. With my enthusiast level computer two monitors and several other devices powered I still get about 45 minutes worth of power on battery, and with the power chute software to shut down my computer when the battery gets low I don't have to worry about sudden disconnects. Overall its a great battery backup and it works well.

Load AAA game titles with this 15.6-inch Lenovo Legion gaming laptop. Its 1TB of storage lets you save large downloads, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics card renders fluid Full HD visuals. This Lenovo Legion gaming laptop has 16GB of RAM and a hexa-core Intel Core i7 processor for powerful performance.

Overall this laptop is one of the best performers I have used in a long time. The size is nice, not too big but not tiny either. It performs well in most of the games I have tried with it, and it does all of the daily driving such as bill planing web browsing and small office work without any issue. If I had any complaints it would probably be the shifted upwards numberpad. I love a laptop with a number pad but this one feels like its shifted up one row too many. The number lock is on the bottom instead of in the upper left hand corner and the math keys ( * / - + enter) all are in odd spots compared to a normal keyboard. But after some time it is not too much of an issue. Performance is key and this laptop has it, which makes it a nice replacement for someone looking to upgrade.

This HP Pavilion Wave computer has 8GB of RAM to run the latest applications and four USB ports for connecting multiple accessories.

I'll be very honest with this one. If you plan on using this computer for anything more than simple word documents and some simple internet use look other places. I would recommend getting the Core i5 version of this computer before you get this one.
Pro's:
Overall design is well thought out. The device is clean and nicely wrapped in a cloth like material that gives is a little bit of room style. I would not mind having this computer sitting next to my TV or even right on my desk as it has a very welcoming look. The sound out of the single speaker on top of the device from the little bit I have used it so far seems really good for such a small setup as well.

Unfortunately this computer is very very under powered. It is nice that they include 8GB of ram but ram is not everything. This computer tends to start dragging and hiccuping any time you try to do more than one thing. I could not watch a video and surf other web pages without response times being slow and sluggish. The i3 processor is just not up to the game of driving both the monitor and the computer. The i5 version has a dedicated video card and i feel that this version would have benefited from that arrangement as well. But for cost savings i can see why they did not include that.

I honestly feel that the i3 processor in this computer just is not enough for someone who may use a computer for more than just the occasional word document or email. It chugs in a bad way when you attempt to do anything more. If all you want to do is load a single page and play music over the included speaker then I would say you are ok, but more than that and be warned it will feel really slow.

Can you connect two starter kits together?
You can connect the panels from two kits together yes, I just don't think you can have two controllers in the same setup so you would need to omit the controller panel from one set. Otherwise, the panels can all be added together.

HOW DO I HOOK UP MY EPSON PRINTER? IT WILL NOT ACCEPT MY DISC TO INSTALL!
You will need to go to Epson's website and download the drivers as this computer does not have a disk drive. The other option is to purchase a usb disk drive and use that. But i would recommend downloading the drivers from Epson
