Great Choice, Especially For Long Trips
on June 17, 2022
Posted by: Posted1
The Stage:
I had a round trip of 828 miles from the Mountain Time Zone into the Eastern Time Zone. To test this, I used this TomTom unit, my stock 2020 Ford Fusion GPS and the modern standard-bearer, Google Maps on my phone.
The Scene:
All 3 units calculated the route arrival time within a few minutes. I had all 3 set with the same parameters regarding things to avoid, toll's etcetera. The slightest advantage goes to Google but only because it calculated the "local's" route that I would have naturally taken to get me to the nearest Interstate. That said, the TomTom and the Ford Fusion took the most "common" route. I took the "local's route" and once the TomTom and Ford Fusion were caught up, the routes quickly adjusted and the arrival times.
The Technical Backdrop:
One thing I really appreciate about this (and the Ford Fusion) is that they display the current speed limit, and the TomTom will move that into a red background f you exceed. They both also updated to the current speed in almost real-time. Nice feature. Another thing both me and my newly licensed 17-year-old daughter, was the tool bar on the right that displays, upcoming gas stations, restaurants, rest-stops etcetera. You can customize what it will display, but it shows you how many miles each of these interests are. Very cool.
Set-up was simple, entering addresses simple and the graphics are sharp, crisp and natural, even in turn-by-turn graphics. It offers speech input but I never use that on any of my devices and did not test. I would assume it would work adequately, but I did not test.
The screen is BIG, bright and brilliant. I am going to end up using this in my RV and the large screen will be appreciated as I pay attention the much larger size of a 34" RV and maneuvering around traffic.
The Review:
All in all a very nice unit. Everything it does, it does well. The mounting hardware is high quality and simple to use. Based on this, I really want to give it a 5 star, BUT one thing it DOES NOT do is very frustrating to me. Any and every other GPS unit I have ever used will display the map in real time as you drive around even if you don't have a destination entered. This unit DOES NOT do that and I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Is this a deal breaker? Well, no, but it is an annoyance.
End of the day, I would recommended this to a friend, and I would have given it 5 stars were it not for the annoying failure to show map in passive mode.

High End Counter Top Oven that Does Everything
on June 15, 2022

High quality counter-top oven. Cafe is to GE as Lexus is to Toyota... The luxury brand of an excellent flagship company. This stove-top oven fits that description perfectly.
First off, what does it do?

After doing several tests ranging from frozen pizza, to bagels and toast and air-frying vegi's, this unit mastered all.
The one caveat (and I have seen a couple other reviewers not the same), you may need to experiment with the time. While I am at 6500 feet above sea level, not sure if that makes my experience unique, but frozen items (tater-tot's and pizza's) seemed to cook rather quickly. A pizza that said 15 to19 minutes was easily done at 13 to 14. Just takes some experimenting.
The CrispFinish feature is pretty cool. It does exactly as it say's... Offers a, well, crisp finish. Great for pizza's, sandwiches etc.
While it does have WiFi capabilities, not really that useful. I understand why t is designed as it is, but it seems like a marketing tool more than a useful device.
In all, a very nice, gorgeous, functional luxury item.

Cool Cup! Well, no... HOT CUP!
on June 11, 2022
Posted by: Posted1
To be honest, the wife and I use this more than either of us thought we would. Both being morning coffee drinkers (she prefers coffee, I prefer Espresso), we have an every-other-day custody agreement with visiting rights being granted on an as needed basis for the occasional evening/weekend use.
Unpacking was simple. The box was a quick Benchmade knife slice to remove outer film, then a couple simple steps to get into hardware. Inside you'll find the cup (of course), the charger, power supply, user guide and an Ember "sticker/decal" deck in case you like it so much you want to brag?
Set up was as expected, super simple. Plug in the charger to base, plug other end into wall outlet and place cup on charger. We set it up, ran about 3 hours or so of errands and it was fully charged when we returned. The "power" button (also the button to connect to app) is on the bottom center of cup.
The app is expectedly simple. You can set the default preferred temperature, status and set the default LED color. She wanted pink, I wanted blue so we settled on purple. We both like our drinks hot so we agreed to default at 145. Battery life when not on charger is listed at 1.5 hours. The longest I tested was maybe 30 minutes and it was still at 145. It is also advertised as keeping hot all day long while on charger but I cannot confirm/deny since I never tested
***IMPORTANT NOTE****
*Hand-wash only
*Make sure charge points on cup bottom are thoroughly dry BEFORE placing on charger
*Cup is NOT microwavable
*Make sure charge points on cup bottom are thoroughly dry BEFORE placing on charger
*Cup is NOT microwavable
End of the day, cool cup and a handy gadget. I would (and have) recommended to friends.

Excellent Cleaner And Amazing Time Saver
on June 1, 2022
Posted by: Posted1
OK, this thing is a BEAST!
We have a larger house with 2 adults, 2 late-teenagers, 2 goofy dogs and 2 snooty cars. Just shy of 5700 square feet. There is about 2700 sq ft on main level, of which about 1300 is hard flooring. The second floor is about 1500 sq ft, but only 2 bedrooms (14x15 each) and 2 bathrooms are hard flooring with the rest being carpet. The basement is also about 1500 sq ft, of which about 1000 sq ft is hard finished flooring (the rest is concrete for HVAC/storage). We have a large area of hard flooring to cover. The Tineco Floor One S5 is a HUGE timesaver AND does an excellent job at cleaning.
In the box was the Floor One S5, the handle, a charging/storage cradle, power cord, 2 additional brush-heads, a cleaning brush, basic assembly/care/use instructions, an extra dry filter and bottle of Tineco solution. One important note: it says to ONLY use Tineco cleaning solution. Is this a marketing thing to make sure you always buy Tineco? I don't know, but it's relatively inexpensive and it only requires one cap-full per cleaning, so I am not going to try my luck by using another brand. Just a note for reference!
Out of the box, assembly was simple. Attach the handle, plug in the charging/storage cradle, pop the Floor One on the cradle and let it charge. From opening box to ready to charge was sub-5 minutes. It came right at 38% charged but I wanted to have it fully charged for first use. We ran a couple hours of errands, and it was fully charged when we returned.
In the past, we had to use our stick vacuum first to get off loose debris, pet-hair, the mindless candy wrapper left from a 17-year-old in a hurry or any other every-day living stuff. On the main floor, this would take a solid 10 minutes. After that, we would either use a wet Swiffer wet pad, or for deep cleanings, the old fashion mop 'n bucket. This process was not only labor intensive, but also time intensive. The Floor One S5 cut the time and labor in more than half. Greatly improved!
First use, I filled up the fresh tank with hot tap water, added the one cap-full of solution and was ready to go. My first impression was how light weight and maneuverable the unit is. Often, it's easy to assume lightweight might mean frail or flimsy. This is not the case with this unit. It has a quality feel, design, and feedback to it. I was impressed. For size comparison, that is a 65" TV in the picture with the Floor One and its box.
I powered it on and kept it in "Auto" mode. Another surprise: The device is self-propelled. You turn it on, lean the handle back and it starts moving forward. The device laid an even layer of water and quickly sucked up the excess. The floors were dry in a very short period. The "iLoop" sensor changed the water and power distribution multiple times. This was easy to track as the 2.5" LCD display changes from BLUE [clean] to RED [dirty]. I will say this is kind of a cool feature. I was skeptical about the efficacy of the iLoop sensor at first but after seeing the end-result, I must admit that there might be some substance behind it.
In addition to the iLoop dirty/clean display, the LCD prominently shows the battery level, mode, and other feedback mechanisms. I'm a digital kind of guy, so I think that's pretty cool. The device is pre-set to provide voice feedback. Things like charging, whether it needs cleaned, when tanks need emptying or filled etcetera. I think that's kind'a a cool feature, but it's simple to turn off if it bothers you. You can either use the app [more on that later] to turn it on and off or by pressing the "WiFI" button a couple times, you can toggle on or off. In all, if you are techy guy or gal, I think you'll love this. If you are not, you will still appreciate the feedback that is given you via the voice and LCD display.
I had to fill the clean tank 3 times and empty the dirty tank 3 times. I imagine some might consider this to be excessive but knowing that I have a large area on my main floor, I am perfectly ok with it. Given the clean it provided, well worth it.
Once I was done, clean-up was simple. Empty the dirty water tank, clear the debris, if necessary, use the brush to clean the tubes... Now this part sounds counter-intuitive, but it makes sense. Fill up your CLEAN tank [it will remind you] with fresh water and solution. The Floor One S5 uses the fresh water to clean itself. I placed the unit on the charger, and it automatically runs "diagnostics" on itself to determine if cleaning is required. Given the footprint of our house, it did determine a self-cleaning was required. It took a few minutes, but it told you what the status was. Very cool.
One important note: Watching the battery percentage counter count down may at first be alarming, but I easily did my first floor and had 35% charge when I was done. Don't worry, you should have plenty of time to do MOST home cleanings. Also remember that the battery is doing a lot of stuff between the roller, the suction, the water distribution, the "brains" and the display. Just remember, don't be alarmed, you should be fine to finish most jobs on a single charge and have battery left.
As for the app [again, as a techy] is it cool? Yes. Necessary? No. I mean end of the day, it's a hard surface wet vacuum. Don't get me wrong, I like having it, but it does nothing for the performance of the cleaning. The app gives you status, battery level, charge time, use time etcetera. I'm glad it's there but it's not necessary for you to use the machine.
End of the day, this is an excellent choice, even for the price. While price/value ratio is subjective, I would certainly pay for this Tineco Floor One S5 for two reasons. Most important is for the time it saves. It will easily cut your cleaning time by half, if not more. And the second reason is simply for the great cleaning job it does. I would (and have) recommended this to a friend. I was not disappointed, and I don't think you will be if you have the same experience I did.

Very cool device...
My wife and daughter were in awe when I told them I had the opportunity to get this little guy. Apparently FOREO is a very well respected name in the health/beauty field. As a typical dude, my idea of a health/beauty tool is a razor that's not too rusty, so this was new to me.
It came in a nice FOREO box along with it's baby sister. Once the main box was opened, each device was very well packaged in sturdy, plastic casing. These are not CLAMSHELL cases... A sharp knife and one simple cut and it opened very easily. A nice touch over my hated clamshell cases.
Once inside, the case had the unit, the charger, a sample of cleanser and simple instructions. Everything you need without being overbearing.
Once opened, setup was simple. Scan a QR code, DL the app, turn the unit on (plenty of charge from factory) and you're off. Register the product in the app and you're off. It offered Bluetooth connection (not required) and self guided mirrored or non-mirrored options.
One important note, the USB cable is standard at the end you would plug into PC or wall, but proprietary on the end that plugs into device. Good ide to keep track of that little charger.
The unit is reported to be fully waterproof and a single charge is said to last up to 650 minutes. Clearly I can not vouch for either claim but no reason to doubt the assertions.
After using a handful of times, I honestly think I can feel a difference in my overall skin quality and tone.
Very nice little device that I would recommend to a friend.

Great affordable option, especially if you travel!
The not so good, and I realize this is a personal gripe but I'm sure I'm not alone. I HATE clamshell packaging! I get it, it protects well, it's inexpensive and simple to manufacture, BUT opening is ALWAYS a hassles.
As for comfort, use and convenience, these are a great choice. We used them on a 24+hour each way trip and 4 days on camp site with our RV and the 13 month old seemed loved them. They appeared to be very comfortable for her and of course for us, the operation and pairing was simple.
The next test will be in May when we see how they work on an airliner but so far, very good.

OK, with that rant revealed, once open, these have a high quality feel especially for the price point. Pairing and basic use was simple. We used on our camping trip in our RV and the little guy really enjoyed them. Paired to his kids tablet and he went hours and nary a complaint. He even fell asleep a few times with them on so we know they ,must be comfy.

Truth be told, I have always been a fan of Logitech products. This Lefty mouse does not disappoint.
First thoughts... While I understand the clamshell packaging, I HATE IT. Not at the fault of Logi, many manufacturers are using it as it's cheap and protective, but can some one figure out an easy-open application? Just a personal beef, but still withstanding.
OK, once opened, set-up was simple and the mouse operation was as expected. The buttons and wheel were silent and the laser point placement were spot on.
End of the day, it's a mouse and does what a mouse should. Where it beats many others is in the quite operation and customizations options.

how do I get my mouse to move properly on my intel computer screen
I'm not sure I understand the question. You should be able to plug the USB into your PC, turn your mouse to the "on" position and have it operate no problems.
