We purchased this printer to replace an old clunky machine. It prints everyday things quite nicely. We have not printed photos, I can't imagine many people do that these days. What I love best about this printer is that we can print from all our devices (phones, tablets. pc, laptops) from anywhere in the house. We aren't heavy printers, but I believe it does pretty well on ink. The replacement ink is pretty afforable too. It's absolutely worth the money.

After waiting years and years for the right deal at the right time, I finally bought my 1st SLR. This package was a great deal. The camera bag is amazingly protective, everything fits inside. The camera is light, super-light as it describes. I love that I don't have to lug around a heavy camera. The strap is comfortable. I had it out of the box quickly and started playing with it the day it arrived.I haven't used the larger lens yet. It's winter in Iowa and not the best weather for outdoor photos. I'm sure I will get ample use of this camera. I'm quite pleased overall with this purchase.

I received this as a gift. At initial glance I thought there was no way I could make coffee with this machine. I was thrilled to find great instructions and a wonderful recipe book inside the box. The milk frother and be difficult to master, it took me multiple tries to get it right. I haven't tried making some of the more difficult drinks, but the ones I have made have been wonderful. My daughter tells me their are all kinds of recipes online too. I'm happy to say I'm finally kicking my Keurig and those awful k-cups to the curb!

i received this device as a gift. The device itself works pretty well. I have noticed it will report an inaccurate amount of steps while doing chores such as vacuuming, brushing our dogs, brushing/blow drying my own hair, and any other activity where your arms mimic the same movements as a step would. Sometimes the numbers climb much faster than would even seem reasonable, such as a couple of swoops of the brush across my small dog, and I'll see a gain of 11 steps. The app in the latest ios hangs more often than I'd like when the device is syncing. It doesn't work with health features of an iphone at all. In spite of these small things, I still really enjoy the device overall. My favorite feature is the sleep tracking. It's interesting to see how little I actually sleep and how much time I spend restless/awake. I've heard the device is water resistant, but I would risk showering with it on. If you use the call alert feature, and your phone rings often, it will cut your battery life in half. I average 15,000 - 19,000 steps per day. The battery lasts me about 2.5 days. It does recharge in just an hour. I usually plug it in while showering/getting ready for bed.

Bluetooth allows you to pair with other Bluetooth-enabled devices, and the 5" touch screen offers easy navigation.

This phone is acceptable, but for a 13 mp camera it sure doesn't have many camera features. The screen and colors are crisp and clear. Bought this for my teen. He hasn't complained about it at all. It seems satisfactory for his needs.

Great so far!

I originally ordered this product online. When it arrived, the display wasn't functioning correctly. I had to drive to the nearest Best Buy who had it in stock, which was an hour each way in the car with rush hour traffic. It's too bad I'll never get that time or money for fuel back. The even exchange was seamless and the laptop itself is quite lovely. Everything about it is great. It charges quickly, holds a charge much longer than my old laptop, graphics and colors are fabulous. The sound is amazing!!! Well worth the money spent. I am quite pleased.

Great router. Easy to use!

I purchased this router to replace the CenturyLink Zytel PK5001Z modem/router combo, for higher quality connection and improved usability. I had it out of the box and functioning in less than 10 minutes. So far our connectivity has greatly improved, and we are now able to stream Netflix and Hulu in the back of the house, where previously our CenturyLink modem/router failed. This product is well worth the money and a great alternative to modem/router combo products.

This is a great case for the money. It is functional and protective. It doesn't cover up sheer beauty of my 6 plus. I am very happy with this case.

This television was easy to setup right out of the box. Connecting it to wifi was a breeze. I was surprised that I needed a computer or mobile phone to create a Roku account. Thank goodness it was a speedy process. The color is fabulous, the remote is easy to use. I highly recommend this tv.

is it compatable with windows 10?
Yes, it is. It also works with phones, tablets, and other devices quite easily. It's a great wireless printer for a relatively cheap price. We love it.

Should this laptop take almost a full minute to start up?
I just bought this computer last night and already I'm not thrilled. This computer is suppose to be lightning fast and it is taking a full minute to start up, even longer on a restart. Is that normal? Even opening apps and loading the internet are lagging. I am expecting the speed I'm used to with my ipad. Am I expecting too much?
This laptop does not take that long to load for me. I was impressed with the quick startup. You may want to see what apps you have setup to run at startup. It may be a large app causing your lag. Otherwise, the guys at Geek Squad are awesome. Take the laptop into your local store, they will help you out.

Does this run Adobe Creative Cloud well? Specifically Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign?
Adobe CC and photoshop work well for me with this laptop, no lags, app hangs, or any concerns. I've been able to manage/edit large files and utilize all my features with success. I replaced my pc for this laptop.

The remote control does not have chanel and volume controls, how is controled the volume with this remote ???
The volume control is conveniently located on the right side of the remote. I actually love this feature. There is a mute button right below the volume control. The channel is changed by using the purple up and down buttons that are located above and below the OK button. The remote is nice and small and fits easily in most hands. We LOVE this tv.
