The Shark Pet Cordless Stick Vacuum combines deep-cleaning suction with cordless convenience. Powerful suction delivers deep cleaning on both hard floors and carpets while the vacuum's lightweight design and removable handheld vac allow for cleaning from floor to ceiling. For added convenience, the XL dust cup features CleanTouch technology for hands-off debris disposal.

Good basic cordless vac. Works well and picks up dirt left behind by my old corded vacuum. Decent battery life and pretty lite weight. Works as a handheld vac too so good for cars etc.
Not a lot of extras included, it comes with a crevice tool and a brush attachment. Motorized brush head with lights works well. Doesn't really have a removable battery like older sharks but might be replaceable, not sure.
Other accessories available from shark. A little smaller than most corded vacuums which is good and bad. It lets you squeeze into smaller spaces but requires a little more work in larger areas.
I like it and will likely use it a lot. The cordless feature and good cleaning make it preferable to my old corded vacuum.

Feel the beat with these Marshall Major III headphones. Powerful 40mm dynamic drivers deliver clear, accurate audio, and the detachable 3.5mm cable is compatible with a range of devices from phones to MP3 players. These Marshall Major III headphones offer a secure, comfortable fit and boast a collapsible design that folds easily for travel.

Didn't realize Marshall was making headphones but when I saw these I had to try them out. Mid size on ear they are compact and comfortable.
Much better than in ear headphones IMO. Great sound and good bass, they really shine. Good battery life too.
Works with phone, single button for controls, easy pairing, replaceable ear pads. Comes with a usb cord for charging and another cable for wired connection. No ac adapter but hopefully you have one already. Good Bluetooth range. Good price, get two!

Winning in business means working smarter. This HP Color LaserJet Pro M479fdw printer is designed to let you focus your time where it's most effective - growing your business and staying ahead of the competition.Prints up to 27 ISO ppm*, up to 27 ISO ppm* in color

Great all in one color laser printer. Has all the features you are likely to need. Great for a small business or personal use. It may be slight overkill for me since I don't print a lot but I was tired of cheap printers that are missing some features that I wanted.
Big and heavy, you will need to figure where to put it but not a problem for most of us. The docs say 51 lbs but it felt heavier when moving it around by myself. Not really huge but big.
Great printing, good scan/copy, I didn't try the fax since I don't have a landline. I use it wireless which works great. Also nice touchscreen. You can print from flashdrives as well so you don't even need your computer.
Not really for photos but does them ok. Also docs included are quite limited but a full manual can be downloaded from hp's website. It seems that most stuff is going this way nowdays. No discs either, drivers and software must be downloaded.
Toner not cheap but reasonable. Four cartridges, change only the ones that are empty. You might want to check the price at hp's website. The plastics aren't as heavy duty as hp's older printers but this one has many more features and should hold up for a long time.
I like it!

Lenovo 510A-15ICB Desktop: Take care of business with this Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop computer. The Intel Core i3 processor and 8GB of RAM let you engage with intensive applications, while the DVD-RW drive lets you watch movies and install new programs. This Lenovo IdeaCentre desktop computer has a 1TB hard drive to store your files.
Posted by: InspectorGadget
This thing surprised me with it's performance. It's only the second prebuilt desktop I've bought the first being in the mid 80's. I built several others myself after that before switching to laptops.
Easy setup, no bloatware, and fast. The I3 processor is good enough for most computing. I use a 24" LG tv connected via hdmi for a monitor and it looks great. You can use hdmi for sound or switch to speakers using the port on the rear. Speakers and hdmi cable not included.
When I ordered it I thought I might need a ssd but so far not really needed but you can add one. Has a couple of slots for upgrading but not sure if the power supply is up to higher end graphics cards. 8G of ram but both memory slots are used (upgradeable to 16).
Mine has 4 usb ports in the rear plus 4 more in front plus 1usb c. The rear only has 1 audio connector for speakers or headphones. Nice keyboard and mouse included.
Great for all around use I also tried an older game, NFS Most Wanted from 2012 and it ran fine. I will be giving my laptops a needed rest now as I enjoy this new desktop.

Enjoy the versatile headset for Hybrid work and beyond with the Poly Voyager Legend Wireless Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headset. Featuring a multi-mic design with noise cancellation technology, this Bluetooth headset improves call quality by filtering out distracting background noise. This Plantronics Voyager Legend Bluetooth headset has built-in controls that let you change volume, mute calls and activate voice-controlled functionality with a single touch.
Posted by: InspectorGadget
So far so good. Good fit for me even with my glasses. Doesn't actually go into my ear which is more comfortable to me. Good sound at both ends of call. Range seems good too.
Has voice prompts for several functions as well as some voice commands. Pretty good upgrade from my 10+ year old headset.
Phone app adds a few functions though it's not required. Also pc app for a few more. You can check it out at plantronics.com for more info.
No real manual included, just a quick setup guide which doesn't tell you much. Download the full manual from their website.
Not really ideal for music but will play for casual listening. Also proprietary charger so you need it for charging not a standard one. It does plug into usb though. No AC adapter included just the usb cable.
I like it. Get one.

Secure detailed proof of vehicular incidents with this Owlcam smart dual dash camera. The 1440p outside-facing and 720p inside-facing cameras capture high-definition video, and 4G LTE connectivity enables instant video alerts and remote access to live and recorded footage via smartphone. This Owlcam smart dual dash camera supports voice commands for hands-free operation.
Posted by: InspectorGadget
Nice security camera. More than just a dashcam it also provides security when your car is parked and emergency assistance in case of an accident. Also gps to locate the camera (assuming it's still got power I presume). Sends alerts to your smartphone with the app.
Sounds great if you have kids who borrow your car sometimes and you want them to be more safe. You can add their phones too, I think up to 5 phones. If you want to check the specs go to their website at owlcam.com. They also have a 24/7 support line if you have questions.
Only complaints: subscription required for 4G LTE support after the first year. Not surprising though as most 4G devices require this. Also the first year appears to not be truly unlimited but for 60 credits a month. But you can use a lot of it's functions without using the 4G. Plus it still works as a dashcam without the 4G service. The subscription is currently 9.99 per month or 99.99 per year, not unreasonable.
Also I wish it had support for usb power besides the obd connection. I would like to play with it in my house rather than my car to learn and set it up especially when it's 90+ degrees outside. The camera appears to use a standard usb-c connector but I tried two of mine and they won't quite fit. But for full functionality it likely needs obd.
If you have a nice car and/or want some extra protection this is a good choice.

Enjoy hot meals and snacks with this 1.2-cu. ft. Panasonic 1200W microwave. The 11 power levels provide optimal heating for various dishes and include a keep warm function, maintaining cooked food at an ideal serving temperature. This Panasonic 1200W microwave has a coffee/milk preset for quick preparation of hot beverages.
Posted by: InspectorGadget
Good microwave. Medium to large size, a little smaller than my old one but much better. Still tall enough to warm my coffee mug which was one of the reasons I bought my old one.
I got a new one because my old one was having some problems. The light had burned out a long time ago and no easy way to replace it. Then the turntable quit so I had to rotate manually because of hotspots. Plus it was getting kind of dirty even though I cleaned it often.
This new one is great and cooks well. Looks good too. Takes a little less space on my counter. Easy to use and has sensor technology. also appears to use an led bulb which should last much longer. Also turntable which works.
A little more power than my old one (1200watt vs 1100watt) and many newer features. I really liked my old one till the turntable quit and it just got to be kind of a pain to cook with. This one seems to be a great replacement for me. Great price too if you don't want to spend a ton for a new microwave.
Only one complaint though. When I first put it on my counter it had a wobble in the feet. Not sure why but it didn't sit level. I looked through the packaging for a foot that may have fallen off but nothing there. I just put a small piece of cardboard under the right rear and that solved it. I may put a felt pad or foot on it for a more permanent fix if it resurfaces.
I like it and my food cooks better now. Thanks Panasonic. A great brand that has been around a long time.

Enjoy major networks without paying a monthly fee with this Mohu Arc Pro indoor HDTV antenna. An integrated signal indicator helps you to find the optimal signal location, while the LED lights let you adjust antenna placement in real time for a more stable connection. This Mohu Arc Pro indoor HDTV antenna uses FirstStage amplifier technology which results in less distortion and stunning picture quality.

I'm only about 18 miles from town in the "suburbs" but have had some problems with other antennas with occasional loss of signal. Not the case with this antenna. I get all local channels without any problem.
It comes with an amplifier though you may not need it. It plugs into a usb port and lights the leds to show signal strength. Pretty handy for finding the best location for placement. No ac adapter included but you can request one for free.
Fairly small in comparison to some of my other antennas which don't work as well. Good looking if you have to have it exposed. I don't have cable because I don't want to pay for a bunch of crap I probably wouldn't watch anyway.
Great if you want "free" tv (local broadcast). You still have to deal with commercials but that gives me a break to do other things while watching.
I really like this antenna.

Does what it says and fast. My main laptop only has one standard usb port but I sometimes need more. This device allows me to plug into the usb-c port and gain two more. It also has usb-c port and hdmi, sd card, and network ports. Lots of stuff in a small package. Can be used for charging as well. Small size makes it easy to take on the go.
I like it.

Enjoy timeless vinyl in modern quality with this Sony wireless turntable. Bluetooth connectivity pushes high-quality audio to wireless speakers and headphones, while a built-in phono audio output ensures wired devices can be connected as well. A minimalist design simplifies use of this Sony wireless turntable to a single button press, and two operating speeds allow for customizable playback.

Not really a high end turntable but ok. No adjustable counterweight or antiskate or pitch control. Also cartridge doesn't seem to be easily replaced. My older turntable has these features but this one has some that it is missing.
It does have some things such as built in preamp with adjustable gain, usb, and bluetooth.
Good sound, decent cartridge, Bluetooth works well. I will use it for my slightly worn albums which may not be up to the standards of my better turntable. Most will find this a great buy but if you're looking for a high end turntable this ain't it.
Nice middle of the road, belt drive, full? automatic, could be right for you.

Wirelessly store files with this WD My Passport 2TB external hard drive that features wireless-N connectivity with MIMO technology, so you can stream up to 4 high-definition videos at once and access files from up to 8 connected devices simultaneously.
Overall
5 out of 5
5 out of 5Good game.
By YaNinja
The game is really really fun to play 2 players against the computer once you unlock the characters by earning points. It does play a little bit clunky (for example sometimes a player will get hit up and be in the air for way too long). Overall a really fun game, if you love anime you'll probably love this.
