You shouldn’t have to settle for a watered-down version of your favorite iced coffee at home. By brewing at a lower temperature, preinfusing and offering the ability to customize to an extra strong taste, smooth, full-bodied coffee over ice that is never watered down. An automatic bean-to-cup machine, Dinamica offers “one-touch” beverages: espresso, long espresso, drip-style coffee, and a new feature - Over Ice, just select the strength to your liking. To deliver the freshest brew possible, the Dinamica’s revolutionary technology grinds the perfect amount of your favorite beans leaving no residual coffee in the brewing unit. Also, with an integrated Premium Adjustable Frother, you can create Italian classic cappuccino with a dryer milk foam texture or choose the Hot Milk setting for your latte. And cleanup is a snap, taking half the time of other machines - just pop out the drip tray, and drop it in the dishwasher.

Fancy Coffee Shop...at home!

The De'Longhi - Dinamica TrueBrew Over Ice Fully Automatic Coffee and Espresso Machine is not an easy to set up machine, but if you take the time to learn how it operates and do it correctly, the resulting beverages will be well worth it.
The De'Longhi - Dinamica TrueBrew does everything for you automatically, from grinding the right amount of fresh beans to having it placed in the internal filter, tamping it down and then producing the espresso out of the dual spouts.
Its fairly easy to clean with a removable dishwasher safe drip tray, has a great Adjustable Frother to help you make Cappuccino or Lattes with ease.
The killer app for me from the De'Longhi - Dinamica TrueBrew is the Iced Coffee feature. In the summer months especially, I like a good Iced Coffee and this machine delivers that with excellence. Full Bodied non watered down taste are what I seek in an Iced Coffee and to be able to get that on demand at home makes this machine worth it for that alone.
As with all machines like this, they will be kept in tip top shape by making sure you clean and descale when required to keep it delivering great quality and taste.
To me, a machine like this pays for itself in no time when you factor in the cost of getting the beverages the De'Longhi - Dinamica TrueBrew can make in your house rather than at a fancy coffee shop.
If you love great coffee, get this machine, you wont regret it!

Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Machine

The Ninja - Foodi Convection Toaster Oven is a versatile Kitchen tool that can help you prepare almost anything. From simply toasting a bagel to French fries (with the Air Fry function) to making a pizza or broiling a steak, there is almost nothing the Ninja - Foodi Convection Toaster Oven cant do.
Setup is simple, just unpack everything, plug in and you are good to go.
The first thing I made was a quick toasted bagel which required me to put the wire rack in the middle rails and in no time I had a perfectly toasted bagel.
The Ninja - Foodi Convection Toaster Oven has both convection type “Cyclonic Air” as well as a Sear Plate (taking the place of a cast iron pan) that ensure you can not only achieve direct contact heat but also heated air flow. The only thing to remember is you need to pre heat the Sear Plate as you would normally do when using a cast iron skillet when making a steak for example.
I wanted to make a meal from the suggested meals in the included Quick Start Guide so I tackled the Carne Asada Fajita Recipe.
After following the prep instructions, in 25 mins time I had a delicious Fajita meal that utilized the Sear Plate and using the oven portion to warm the tortillas.
A cool feature that I haven’t seen is the ability to flip the Ninja - Foodi Convection Toaster Oven up so it doesn’t take up a large footprint of space on your kitchen counter. I don’t know how much I will use that feature but its good to know if I need more counter space for food prep etc I can flip the Ninja - Foodi Convection Toaster Oven up and out of the way.
Look no further for an improved take on the common one trick pony Toaster Oven.

Workout and recovery optimizer

The Hyperice - Hypervolt 2 Percussion Massage Device is a great addition to anyone’s workout and physical fitness regimen.
The Hyperice - Hypervolt 2 comes with a wall charger, 5 different head attachments and a pouch to keep your attachments organized. At just under 2lbs its easy to take with you wherever you go.
The Hyperice App will link with the Hyperice - Hypervolt 2 Percussion Massage Device to give you more precise control on intensity (with 3 different speeds of percussion) and helps to guide you with routines to keep you in the best shape possible.
Warmup and recovery time can be improved as well as taking care of any knots, muscle fatigue etc in a compact device that is used by many pro athletes to get that slight advantage.
I found that Level 1 works best for my neck and upper extremities, Level 2 more for calves and arms and Level 3 at over 3,000 percussions per minute is good for hips, glutes etc
You get roughly 3 hrs of use from the Hyperice - Hypervolt 2 on a single charge which is more than adequate for my needs.
If you need a compact, light and portable Percussion Massager, I definitely recommend the Hyperice - Hypervolt 2.

Great Sounding...Great Price
on November 19, 2021
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
If you are looking for great sound in an economical package, look no further than the Belkin Soundform Rise Earbuds.
Great Sound - CHECK
Comfortable - CHECK
Good Phone Call Quality - CHECK
Qi Charging - CHECK
Long Battery Life - CHECK
Comfortable - CHECK
Good Phone Call Quality - CHECK
Qi Charging - CHECK
Long Battery Life - CHECK
The first two things I look for are good sound and comfort.
The Belkin Soundform Rise Earbuds have nice highs and great bass, I wouldn't call them audiophile quality but for everyday use listening to music and PodCasts as well as phone calls, you cant go wrong.
They also fit nicely in my ears with the supplied eartips.
They also fit nicely in my ears with the supplied eartips.
You can charge the charging case with the supplied usb c cable or charge wirelessly with any Qi charger which is a great feature.
Advertised battery life is 7hrs from the earbuds themselves then another 24 additional hours if put back in the case to charge once depleted for more than enough battery life to keep you charged when on the go.
The only missing feature is Noise Canceling which one cannot expect in anything at this price point, but with the snug fit the natural blocking of ambient sound is pretty good.
Overall I would recommend the Belkin - SOUNDFORM Rise True Wireless Earbuds for everyday carry around use.

Upgrade your tech to M1 with the Satechi USB-C Multimedia Adapter, featuring dual 4K HDMI display ports (60Hz/30Hz), USB-C charging, USB-C data, and two extra USB-A 3.0 data ports - all using a single USB-C connection to your M1 device. With its hi-res dual 4K display output, multitude of options for fast data transfer, and modern aluminum finish, the USB-C Multimedia Adapter is your all-in-one solution to enhancing your M1 experience.
Posted by: NyVetteGuy

I needed a solution to use multiple HDMI monitors with my M1 Mac Mini, enter the Satechi USB-C Multimedia M1 Adapter.
The only thing that makes this less than plug and play is the fact that I needed to download and install the MacOS instantview program from the Satechi Website.
Once the program / app was installed all I had to so was plug the 2 HDMI cables into the Satechi USB-C Multimedia M1 Adapter and voila, both monitors worked!
You do need to choose if you want exact screen mirroring or to extend the main monitors screen, but other than that as my summary states..It Just Works!
There are also 2 USB-A ports and 2 USB C data ports for further versatility.
If you need a dual monitor solution for your M1 Mac, this is a great solution.

Introducing MX Keys Mini for Mac, a smaller, smarter, and mightier minimalist wireless keyboard with a layout for Mac made for creators. The minimalist form factor provides improved ergonomics by aligning your shoulders and allowing you to place your mouse closer to your keyboard for less arm reaching, more comfort, and better body posture. Perfect Stroke keys are shaped for your fingertips with optimal key stability and tactile responsiveness to keep you oriented and in your flow. The backlit keys light up the moment your hands approach, and automatically adjust to suit changing lighting conditions.

If you are in need of a small form factor backlit keyboard to work with multiple devices in the Apple ecosystem, then look no further than the Logitech - MX Keys Mini Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard.
Bluetooth Pairing is simple and you can pair with up to 3 different devices and switch between them with ease with the 3 smart keys on the top of the keyboard.
I paired the Logitech - MX Keys Mini Wireless Keyboard with my M1 Mac Mini and my iPad Pro and was able to switch back and forth with ease.
I like the backlit keys (which adjust brightness according to the ambient light around you) causing the Logitech - MX Keys Mini Wireless Keyboard to look great at night. Logitech uses “Scissor” keys for the keyboard and each press gives just the right amount of click and feedback for my taste.
The Logitech - MX Keys Mini Wireless Keyboard charges with an included USB C cable and the battery lasts about 10 days if using the backlit keys feature and up to a claimed 5 months if not using the backlight.
A keyboard is the gateway to using your electronics and you cant go wrong with the Logitech - MX Keys Mini Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard.

The Nextbase 320XR and Rear Window Camera is the ideal solution for all-around protection on the roads in full HD quality. The front cam captures every detail in 1080p full HD at 30fps, with the aid of a 140° wide viewing angle. It utilizes the latest 2.5" screen with IPS technology for easy menu selection and playback. The 320XR uses the exclusive Click&Go PRO mount with integrated neodymium magnetic power connectors for easy installation and removal using just one hand. The 320XR Rear Window Camera connects to your front facing Dash Cam via a supplied 6.5m cable. It fits directly to your rear window with an easy to install self-adhesive pad. The magnetic, adjustable fixture means that it's suitable for angled windows in cars or more vertical van windows. The Rear Window Camera records in full 1080p HD with a wide 140 degree viewing angle to guard against everything from hit-and-run impacts to knocks and bumps in a car park. The 320XR also includes Intelligent Parking, which automatically starts recording when motion is detected, keeping your car safe when parked. For this feature, we recommend hardwiring in the Dash Cam using the Nextbase Hardwire Kit. Footage must be played back on a PC/Mac using Mynextbase Player or online using the free MyNextbase Cloud service (minimum requirements: Windows 10/OSX 10.9). The 320XR is not Bluetooth, and will NOT sync directly with the MyNextbase cell phone application.

Why a dash cam?
Insurance Purposes – in the event of a collision to ascertain fault
Insurance Purposes – in the event of a collision to ascertain fault
Avoid Fraud – Pedestrian engineering an “accident” on purpose
Keep car safe – Record events when parked and not with your vehicle.
The Nextbase 320XR, helps in all the above categories.
You can mount on your windshield and utilize the included Cigarette Lighter Adapter to supply power or use an optional hard wire cord to wire to direct 12V vehicle power.I purchased the optional hard wire kit to avoid having the power cord hanging in my field of view etc.
Once I installed the front camera and mounted the rear camera (all the while hiding the wires) I was ready to go.
I inserted the Micro SD card and formatted it right away to insure compatibility with the Nextbase 320XR.
You are able to chose video quality from 1080P and 720P, I chose 1080P. Another choice is video clip length, I went with the longest which is 3 minutes.
Accessing the menu I chose to enable “Parking Mode” which powers the camera down to its bare minimum power consumption enabling the Nextbase 320XR to automatically turn on in the event the camera detects physical movement of your car ie: someone hits it while parked and it will automatically record a clip of what transpired.
Video quality from both the front and rear cameras is great and operation is what you’d expect from a dash cam, and that very simply is to record your every driving moment automatically with ease.
If you need a dash cam, the Nextbase 320XR is a fantastic choice.

Great App, Great Comfort, Great Sound
on October 10, 2021
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
The above summary of my review says it all.
I did not know what to expect from the Anker Life Note 3 XR’s and boy was I pleasantly surprised.
Pairing and setup is easy and the companion App is one of the best I’ve used. You can customize the sound with the EQ and the 11mm (aka real big) drivers are the reason why sound is so good. Bass doesn’t disappoint and with the proper ear tip selected, you will have your own concert hall in your ears.
The ANC locks the outside world out when you need it and is up there with some of the best performing ear buds performance wise.
The charging case has a nice textured feel to it almost like carbon fiber and as is the case with earbud cases, you use the case to charge the Anker Life Note 3 XR’s. You can get roughly 7 hours playback time depending upon your use of ANC etc and with the case can get up to another 4 full charges for a total of about 35 hours of use.
Charging of the case is done with a USB C cable, I do wish the case could also be charged with a Qi charger but I guess at this price point and with the other premium features the Anker Life Note 3 XR’s have, that’s expecting a lot.
Overall the Anker Life Note 3 XR’s are definitely worth considering for your everyday sound needs.

Portable Peace of Mind
on September 24, 2021
Posted by: NyVetteGuy
from Westchester Cty, NY
Since we entered the COVID era, clean air has certainly been on my mind.
The Instant Air Purifier is a great addition to my growing arsenal of air purifiers in my house.
With its 3-in-1 filtration system and plasma ion technology the Instant Air Purifier works to remove many contaminants from the air, most importantly 99.9% of the virus that causes COVID-19.
The unit itself is sturdy, and setup is easy, just open the unit up and take off the plastic on the filter medium and replace. Plug it in and turn on, the Instant Air Purifier will then start to measure the air quality in the room that you place it.
Indicator lights show the quality of the air in the room Red / Yellow / White from worst to best.
The great thing about the Instant Air Purifier is its designed for continuous use so it will monitor and filter the air in your chosen room constantly, keeping you and your family as safe as can be (from an air quality perspective).
With all the lights and indicators on the Instant Air Purifier, if using in a bedroom, there is the option to lower the brightness to 20%, 60% 100% or even 0% bright so those who need totally dark room when sleeping (like me) can have it with the 0% setting.
The Instant Air Purifier is also VERY quiet and suitable for use in the bedroom for that reason.
Overall I am very pleased with the Instant Air Purifier and would recommend it to anyone searching for a clean air solution.

Fantastic for Gaming…and for your everyday stuff!
on September 22, 2021
Posted by: NyVetteGuy

The first thing you notice with the Dell S3222DGM 32 inch curved monitor is the weight and overall quality feel of the unit itself. Given it’s a curved screen it’s a bit thicker than other monitors and its pretty big overall so be sure you can accommodate such a large screen.
I’m new to having a curved monitor so I was excited to see how it would perform and how Id like it.
I don’t think I need to delve too much into setup but attaching the stand is a couple of easy steps then much like every other monitor out there you attach the power cable, use the supplied HDMI or Display port cable and you are up and running within minutes.
It has a 1440P (Vertical Alignment) VA Panel and in use shows great contrast with vibrant colors and handles game motion with ease.
Input lag is low and it has variable refresh rate technology but doesn’t handle HDR content.
Input lag is low and it has variable refresh rate technology but doesn’t handle HDR content.
The picture from a straight on viewing is great but does wash out a bit when viewed from the sides at an angle.
I did have an issue with the menu / power button configuration and figuring out how to navigate the menu and various choices but kind of muddled through it and I’m sure Ill get the hang of it with more use.
For gaming its great but also for your everyday mundane tasks whether its Outlook, PowerPoint or for me the myriad of Zoom calls I need to still attend.
Im happy I got it and would recommend the Dell S3222DGM to anyone needing a monitor for gaming and anything else you want to throw at it.
