As Advertised!!!!

THE BREAKDOWN:
I have never owned a high end blender but this is pretty close to as advertised.
The packaging was very well done and just a side note the box was very large… In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The setup was very easy and I was up and running in just a matter of minutes. I did have an issue installing the noise dome. It has 3 places that stick out and that part slides in the base blender. For me the dome was little difficult and the little plastic pieces on the very end came off but it still worked as intended.
I used this blender for preparing the tomatoes from my garden for canning, blending up smoothies and preparing my morning protein smoothie. I have to say that it pretty much lives up to the advertisement. It made quick work of the veggies, fruit and ice and when I say quick work I mean like 2 pulses. I have to admit when I unpacked it I thought the blender would be like my $20 blender I have had for year because it just has the blades at the bottom. Boy was I wrong this thing mixed a whole pitcher of tomatoes in just a few pulses. I was simply amazed.
I would have to say that “whisper quiet” would be a stretch. With the dome on it is very quiet especially in comparison to my old blender.
The blender itself is very modern, sleek and could fit in a high end kitchen very nicely. The preprogrammed features worked as intended and the selector was very easy to understand and use.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Setup was quick and easy
-68 ounce blending cup
-10 speeds
-Dishwasher safe and removable parts
-Noise Dome
-Recipe booklet
-Makes quick work of anything you throw in it

Sleek and Simple
on August 1, 2019
Posted by: Ohanaman
from Kentucky
THE BREAKDOWN:
From the start I loved how sleek and light it was. With the addition of the braided cord gave this mouse the look of high end gaming mouse.
The packaging was very well done and this will not shift around in shipping. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The mouse was plug and play/worked right out of the box without any additional software. If you want to take advantage of the extra features you will have to download the software. The software is Logitech’s GHub software which was easy enough to install. The options were very easy to understand and use.
I found the the mouse was very precise for all the applications and games that I tried. I think that the 16K sensor definitely makes a huge difference, and it really shined when making headshots on some of the games I played. I also really enjoyed the tactile clicking of the buttons.
The included 10g weight for me did not seem to make too much of difference and I found it easy to install. I also loved the soft rubber side grips.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Setup was quick and easy
-HERO 16K sensor
-G HUB software
-LIGHTSYNC RGB
-Soft rubber side grips
-Removable 10g weight

Great Gaming Headset

Posted by: Ohanaman

THE BREAKDOWN:
Let me start by saying these are nothing short of quality and comfort in one package. I have used them for a few weeks now on my PC/Laptop and XBox and I feel that they are very very nice. Not quite perfect, but close.
The packaging was very well done. It was like opening an expensive gift at Christmas. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The base station is very well built and solid. One of the downfalls with this unit for me is the size of the base station. I feel it should be smaller and was kind of a pain to have that USB and basestation attached when playing/watching movies on my laptop.
The sound quality was very good. The chat was crystal clear and was easy to adjust. This is something you come to expect from Astro. One downside for me was the ability to high volumes. I tried several different setting to get the sound to be loud and the closest I came was a preset sound profile I found online.
The range of this set is very good, I have a 3 level home with over 3000 square feet of living space and I have been everywhere and haven’t dropped the sound. This is the best I have ever tested as far as range goes.
The battery life was really good and rated for 15 hours. I haven’t played 15 hours straight but have put them to the test for a few weeks now and found them to be very close to what they claim. I just put them back on the magnetic base station when I’m done. The magnetic base station is a great feature and really helps to seat the headphones to charge them. One thing about the battery level indicator is that it always stated 1% even though they were fully charged. I was hoping that the new update would fix that but hasn’t for me as of yet.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Setup was not that bad
-15 Hour Battery Life
-Adjustable EQ through software
-Excellent Range
-Auto Shut Off
-Great sound profiles
-Mic is Crystal Clear
-Love the flip up mic to mute

CON’s:
-Very pricey
-Sound doesn’t get super loud
-The battery level always stated 1%
-Base station is large
-Very pricey
-Sound doesn’t get super loud
-The battery level always stated 1%
-Base station is large
SUMMARY:
Overall, I feel that this product is really good and has a great fit and finish. I like all the features but I think the base station is really large and that makes it hard to be portable or use with laptop. I would definitely recommend this to a friend if they are in the market for something like this.

At the top of budget gamers!!
on July 3, 2019
Posted by: Ohanaman
from Kentucky
THE BREAKDOWN:
Let me start by saying this is budget gaming at its finest. I think for this price range you would be hard pressed to find something close to this. The roomy 17 inch display (60hz) makes viewing for gaming and other thing very nice. It also has an Intel i5 9th generation 2.4 GHz processor, Nvidia GTX 1650, has 8Gb 2666MHz ram (expandable) and a M.2 512GB SSD.
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running. It even came with a soft zip case.
The look and design of this laptop is amazing. One thing that wasn’t perfect to me on the look was the plastic feeling of the laptop. It looks amazing from across the room but when you actually pick it up it feels a little cheap.
The display was wonderful. To be clear this is not a 120Hz dismay it is only 60Hz but to be honest I didn’t even notice the difference between this one and another laptop that I own that is 120Hz. I like the color performance. I felt as if the blacks were black and the colors were vibrant enough. Not only did I play games but I watched streaming video on this screen and it did not disappoint. One tip would be to make sure you don’t have the brightness at 100% especially at night or it will blind you….This laptop can get bright. Oh and one more point on the display is the thin bezel without the extra real estate around the screen.
There are 1 USB 2.0 port, 2 USB 3.0 ports, USB 3.1 (C) port, headphone jack and an HDMI. There are no SD cards slots which can be a downfall if you are a creator or into that. One comment on the charging port is that is in a bad location. Not sure why it would on the right side middle, such an awkward place.
The sound for me was just ok. Nothing too special there. I pretty much just where my headphones anyway.
Every game I played at very high settings and still had 60+ fps. I thought it did very well but the fan did get loud but was only noticed when I removed my headphones.
The battery was at about 1.5 - 2 hours unplugged when playing video games, while web browsing and playing video’s on youtube, xfinity, Netflix and Hulu the battery lasted anywhere from 3-4 hours. The battery does charge rather fast.
Another thing that I wanted to mention was the Nitro Sense. This little feature gives you cooling information/fan speed and lets you pick the speed and is customizable. The fans have a dual exhaust port design which I found rather useful when playing with the laptop on my lap. It has a key on the keyboard that you can use to access it.
One last thing I want to cover is the backlit keyboard. I like the red backlit keyboard but wished that there was a more customizable color palette.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Setup was easy and was up and running fast
-Backlit keyboard
-Lightweight
-Nitro Sense
-Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650
-Quad-core Intel i5-9300H
-17.3” screen
-1080p 60Hz
-M.2 PCIe 512GB SSD

-The computer itself has a plastic cheap feel but looks amazing

SUMMARY:
Overall, I feel that this product is really good and probably at the top of what you actually get in this price range. I found this gaming laptop to absolutely amazing. There are some things I didn’t like but they have no real effect on the actual gaming performance of this laptop. I would definitely recommend this to a friend if they are in the market for something like this.

Pricey up front and slow
on July 3, 2019
Posted by: Ohanaman
from Kentucky
THE BREAKDOWN:
This printer has a high initial cost but the cost savings is in the ink over time. It has a simple and easy to use design.
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The initial setup was quite lengthy but easily accomplished. It had a guide that guided you through the startup procedures. It was a little different actually loading the ink in the reservoir verses just putting in an ink cartridge.
I really like the design of the printer. It is very simple yet effective and it is very light compared to other printers in the past. The size is very compact as it measures 14.8 in (Width), 9.1 in (Height), and 13.7 in (Depth). It also weighs in at just under 15 lbs.
The printing is excellent quality. It has a ton of printing options to include mobile printing options. The mobile options are Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print and Mopria Print service. The paper storage capacity is 250 sheets which has been pretty standard with this line. It has the automatic document feeder which works as intended.
It states it prints 11 pages per minutes and I averaged 10 pages per minute a few times. Not that it is that big of a deal.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Setup was long but easy to follow
-Very Simple to use
-Lightweight
-250 sheet capacity paper tray
-Fax capable
-Automatic document feeder
-Great mobile feature printing

CON’s:

SUMMARY:
Overall, I feel that this product is really good for the price. Very simple to use with a lot of mobile printing options. I personally used the mobile printing options the most. I could be at work and print return labels that would be ready when I got home. That way I don’t forget. Having a teacher in the family this comes in handy to print the ton of papers needed to run a classroom with the added benefit of the ink being cheaper. I would recommend this to a friend if they are in the market for something like this.

Very Portable but needs some love at louder levels
on June 17, 2019
Posted by: Ohanaman
from Kentucky
THE BREAKDOWN:
This is easily one of my favorite bluetooth speakers. It doesn’t have a lot of the bells and whistles some of the other bluetooth speakers have. It really doesn’t need it. It has a simple and easy to use design.
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The initial setup was simple I had it connected to my phone in just seconds.
I really like the design of the speaker, the big plus and minus volume buttons, very simple yet effective. The body was covered in a waterproof fabric and the top and bottom of speaker had a rubbery feel. I feel the size if perfect especially if you like being in the outdoors. There is also rubbery loop handle on the top.
The sound is very good. This speaker can get really loud and had an outdoor boost feature that makes it even louder without distorting the sound. I did however feel that when the volume was around 75% the bass was a little distorted. I use it daily in my workout room and it is more than loud enough. I tried it outside as well and it yielded the same results, very nice and loud. The range was very good I could go all over my house with my phone and the speaker never missed a beat.
The battery life is excellent as it states. I believe they stated 13 hour battery life and I use this everyday for at least 2 hours and only charged it 6 days and it still had battery life. Another negative item with this speaker would be there is no way to tell the exact battery level.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Super easy to get setup
-Simple to use
-Very portable
-It is waterproof
-Has Outdoor Boost
-Sound is very good

I have to say I was excited to get this product and try it! I have owned an electric toothbrush for years and was looking forward to all the new features of this one
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The initial setup was simple and I was up and running in a matter of just minutes that was including the initial charge.
I felt like it was very well made and the fit and finish was excellent. The one downfall that I didn’t like was that the water reservoir has wholes built in and to me that just lets dust and other particles get in. Especially if you have it located your bathroom like myself.
The toothbrush itself felt like it didn’t not clean my teeth as well as my current one. It was kind of loud and the timer worked well. One other comment is that it does come with a travel case but there is no way to charge it if you take it with you on a trip.
The actual water flossing was excellent and being able to control the water pressure was excellent. I really felt like this is where this device shined. I loved how well it actually flossed my teeth.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Super easy to get setup
-Toothbrush has a 2 min timer
-It has a travel case
-Has a cap for your toothbrush head
-The floss action is great
-adjustable water pressure

-There is holes in the water reservoir that could potentially let in germs

Innovative and Elegant

THE BREAKDOWN:
This product is another line of the ever growing WiFi/Bluetooth wireless door locks. All my testing was done with an iOS device/devices.
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The installation took me about 15 min for the hardware. This is a very simple task for anyone who has changed a deadbolt before. Once the actual hardware was installed I downloaded the app and begin to set up the lock using the app. I like to think of myself as a tech person ( as I am a developer by trade) but I had some issues after creating master PIN. I could not get the lock to calibrate. I called tech support and they walked me through some steps and had to escalate my issue. I finally got the issue resolved on the third call to tech support. After a few factory resets and removing the module a few times the lock is finally working as intended.
The lock itself is very well made. I love the feel and heft of it as it makes you feel like it is very secure. One more thing that I really liked was the backing was actual rubber not plastic giving the lock just another level of polish. One feature about the lock that worries me is the screen where you put your PIN in is made of what appears to be glass and I found a few smudges on there after a few days of use. This could potentially be a security risk. I just try and wipe if off when I remember.
One thing that I haven’t gotten to work yet is actually using the Home Kit on my iOS device. I have tried several times but it cannot find it for some reason.
PRO’s:
-Very well built and stylish
-Super easy hardware installation
-Lots of customizable features
-Has an actual key as a backup
-August app keeps track of activity
-Can be used and monitored remotely
-Can issue temporary PIN numbers
-Auto lock feature
-Uses DoorSense to let you know if the door is ajar

THE BREAKDOWN:
This product is another line of the ever growing video doorbell craze. It may cost a few dollars less than more popular versions of this product. It has the free storage which is a huge plus. All my testing was done with an iOS device/devices.
The packaging was very well done. It was just enough packaging to get the product delivered. In the box was everything needed to get this product up and running.
The setup was very easy and they even had a video setup. I already had a wired doorbell so my setup took less than 10 minutes. The app was really well done and it was a step by step process.
The door bell itself is not metal it is plastic but they did a good job making it appear like a brushed metal.
The motion sensor seems to be a little lacking for me. It worked sometimes and not others. I even changed the motion detection to high, med and low with still a hit or miss detection. The app has a lot of changeable features which as a tech person I love. One really cool feature is the ability to change the LED color on the doorbell. Very nice touch.
The one thing that I did not really like was that this product doesn’t support the 5Mhz bandwidth (which would allow for faster speeds meaning higher quality video) it only works on 2.4Mhz band.
The video quality was questionable at best for me. The 1080 did not work at all for me. I only heard the sounds and saw a black screen. The 720p (Better) image quality setting was a good image but was very laggy and pixelated. I found the 720p (Good) image quality setting worked best for me with only a little pixelation and laggy video.
One note is if you do not hit the red button to disconnect the app will not load the next time you try and view the camera. The night vision was surprisingly good for me.
The sound quality was just okay for me. On the outside at the doorbell you can hear just fine but it wasn’t clear it was more like a walkie-talkie sound. On my phone it was just okay almost the same sound as outside.

Overall, I feel that this product is overpriced for what you are getting. I would definitely spend the few extra dollars and get one of the more popular devices out there on the market. One tip would be to do your research. I think the cons far outweigh the pros on this one and feel that at this price point I would not recommend this product to a friend.

Surprisingly GREAT!!
on May 27, 2019
Posted by: Ohanaman
from Kentucky
THE BREAKDOWN:
The Bose Frames caught me by surprise. They really deliver on sound. I thought the sound was excellent and balanced as expected from Bose. If you're looking for extreme bass then this product is not for you. Most of my friends and family were surprised at how loud they can get. I do think they after the volume hits 70 percent it does kind of sound distorted.
The side arms appear bulky but really don’t feel heavy on your face or become uncomfortable over time. At first I thought that everyone around me would be able to hear my music or phone conversations but they really don’t allow that much sound to get out of your personal space. They worked very well for making calls, I was able to hear people clear and without distortion and and they were able to hear me just fine. I tested this and the music function on several 3-5 mile runs as well as at work.
The AR function is really neat. Bose really did a great job in making this feel immersive. The AR functioned like it was intended to do. It was able to track and make responses on my head movements and by my voice. Overall, they did a great job on making this work. All I can say is give it a try for yourself.
The fit for me on the Rondo’s was a little tight as I have a large head the Alto’s are larger and may have fit me a little better. It took some time to get used to the placement of the power button as I kept hitting it when taking them off. The button features worked as intended and I really like the auto off after 2 seconds when you lay them upside down.
Battery life isn’t great. I got about 3 hours and 20 minutes consistently of usage. Also, it took about 2 hours to charge them.
PRO’s:
-Great sound for a small package
-Frames don’t feel heavy
-Very little sound leakage past your immediate area
-Awesome for calls or music
-Easy to pair

SUMMARY:
If you are in the market for something in this line them these are it! I love the ease of use and the sound quality that was delivered here by Bose.

Philips 3200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine w/ LatteGo, Black
is that machine automatic?
Yes, this machine is automatic. Once you load the whole beans or you can a scoop of ground coffee and fill the water reservoir you just select the button for which coffee you would like it to make. It automatically dumps the grounds inside. I have made several cups before I had to empty the grounds collector. Hope that helps.
