Nice heft and power, easy cleanup.
on October 28, 2020

from Racine, WI
The unit was easy to assemble and the instructions/recipe book was a nice extra. The blender feels very solid and well made and the extra weight seemed to help reduce vibration when chopping/blending.
We made vegetable soup and the blender was a great deal better than previous methods - very smooth and even consistency. Washing up the unit afterwards was painless, the stainless steel finish looks great, being able to break it down after use also means we could store it in a shallow drawer.
We are very pleased with this hand blender.

Dual connect feature is handy!

The Jbuds fit well and have a 'lower' or closer to the ear profile than I was expecting - it's nice if you are resting your head. The foam option for the buds was a nice change, not sure if I will use them much, but it's nice to have the option.
Being able to use either or both earbuds and switch was a nice feature as I spend a lot of time on the phone and it's nice to change ears.
Microphone and incoming sound quality is solid - the Be aware noise cancelling mode seemed to work well, but I mostly use these in the office.
The battery life, from what I have seen so far, is better than the 10 hours they state. The charger is compact and does the job quickly when I do recharge, but these last through a 9+ hour work day.
All told, these are great earbuds and have options that are quite nice.

Easy to use and clean and the frother works great
on October 15, 2020
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Racine, WI
The system was pretty much ready to go out of the box. The instructions were brief but covered what you need.
the frothing took awhile for me to get right, but within an hour of receiving the maker and frother, I and unpacked, cleaned and was making 'fancy' cups of coffee.
Clean up is simple, you will want to keep an eye on the capsule storage to make sure you are emptying it regularly. The small profile of both components made it for easy storage.
NOTE: the instructions I received indicated that the unit was designed for a specific brand of capsule, but I had no problem using a few different compatible capsules with a very common design.

Finally a unit sized for stairs and smaller areas
on October 6, 2020
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Racine, WI
Unit setup and use was easy, instructions were spot on.
the results were excellent especially for so portable a unit.
Cleaning after use and unit storage was also aided by the smaller size.
We found that we could finally manage stairwells and smaller areas without all of the hassle of a full unit, and performance was great!

Very handy for home and gym

from Racine, WI
It runs pretty quiet and cleans up well. It fits in my gym bag without any trouble and I found this to work very well for mixing protein shakes.
It is also good for smoothies and having the container sized properly for a single large or a shared pair of servings makes this a perfect fit for me.

Quiet, lightweight, sturdy keyboard and mouse
on September 15, 2020
Posted by: RacineTechie
from Racine, WI
Everything functioned straight out of the packaging without a hitch, no drivers needed for my setup.
Keyboard is very quiet but has a nice level of pressure when hitting the keys. adjustable height and angle is nice, but the highest angle may still be a little low profile for some.
Mouse has an "invisible laser" which is nice, because there is no bright red bean in your eye when you pick it up to switch it off, but also makes it a bit odd when you are checking to see if it is on.
I am accustomed to gaming keyboards and mice, so this home office level of function is a bit different, but I liked it and expect a lot of use out of this set. The full size keyboard and layout was nice to see in a wireless portable set.

We have a few different mixers and this one is light and easy to use but still gets the job done and can run for a while before recharge. We were very pleased and purchased another as gift for a relative.

Do the sides of the toaster get hot to the touch when in use??

Not that we noticed, but we only make 4 slices at breakfast and don't go for dark/burnt toast.
I expect if you like your toast dark and are making a lot of it, it may get a bit warm, fortunately, stainless tends to shed heat fairly quickly anyway.
