Solid Mop + More
on September 24, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007

This is a good steam mop that seems to get the job done pretty well. First thing I noticed when trying it out the first time is that you have to give the mop time to heat up and then pull the trigger for the steam and give it a minute to really start working. You'll hear a difference in the sound the mop makes when the steam really starts. At this point, you can start mopping.
I had to make a few passes over several spots on my tile floor, but the mop seemed to get all of those. I did have a spot where something spilled under the counter, and at that angle, the mop did have some trouble getting the whole mess cleaned up. However, I did like how smooth the mop was once I got used to it.
Something else to note (as this is my first time using a steam mop): they recommend that you use distilled water instead of tap. I didn't have distilled water so I used tap anyway. The smell that came from the steam was very strong (could also be because it was first time use). But based on that and the recommendation from Bissell, probably better to use distilled water if you can. Among other things, it's supposed to make the mop last longer.
As stated, a solid mop that does get the job done. Plus, it does have a lot of other features and tools for various jobs. Overall a good product that I recommend.

Better than expected

I always want to love Keurig because they make having just a single cup of coffee so much easier. That being said, I've been left disappointed by Keurigs in the past. Weak coffee, not enough coffee in the cup, etc. have all been problems.
I was pretty happy with the cup of coffee I had from this machine this morning though. It was not weak and while it didn't fill my car mug as much as I might have liked, it wasn't bad. My coffee was actually a little bitter (even with some cream), but that obviously could have been the coffee and not the Keurig itself. Looking forward to trying some different kinds/brands of coffee to see if I like those better.
I also tried a Swissmiss hot chocolate. That was disappointing for two reasons: 1) It was too watery, in hindsight, should have gone one size smaller on the cup 2) The water didn't taste good (it was supposed to be filtered by the included Keurig filter). The filter seems like a great idea, but it didn't actually do anything. My tap water tasted like tap water.
This was not one of the super fancy Keurigs, no touch screen or anything. It is incredibly simple operate. Fill with water, hit the power button (water starts heating automatically), add a K-pod, choose Strong if you like a strong cup of coffee, pick a mug size (it actually has an extra large setting for car mugs), and let it do it's thing.
I still don't think I get as good a cup of coffee as I do with my regular coffee maker, but this is so much quicker to use. I'm hoping that I can find a good K-cup that I really like for a better cup of coffee with future uses.

Logitech does not disappoint
on August 2, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
I've always been a fan of Logitech products and this mouse is no exception. One of the concerns I always have with wireless products (i.e. mouse, headphones, etc.) is connectivity and battery life. If you have a product that doesn't have good wireless technology, it can be incredibly frustrating to deal with a sticky mouse, lag time, and unexpected disconnections. Additionally, battery life of wireless products often leaves something to be desired. The last thing you want to have to worry about in the middle of a game is your mouse going out on you.
None of these issues exist for me with the Logitech G703. It connects perfectly and easily, and I have not experienced any disconnection issues. The battery also hasn't been an issue at all. I feel like this thing will last all day and night. On top of all of this, the sensitivity of this mouse is second to none; it responds well to the lightest touch.
Lastly, I love the overall design. A lot of gaming mice are way over the top for me. They're huge, bulky, and difficult to maneuver. The size and features of the G703 are exactly what you need without being to big. Design is sleek and comfortable to use for extended periods of time.
I have no complaints about this mouse and highly recommend it.

Cooks food as promised but...
on July 31, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
This air fryer was kind of a tough one for me to rate and review. It does what it promises which is why I gave it the 4 stars. Despite that, I was disappointed. Yes, it cooks items well. You get the crispiness of fried food without all of the oil it normally takes for something to be fried. But for me, that's kind of where things stopped. The basket really doesn't hold much. It's small and hard to cook for more than one or two people. And if you want to "fry" more than one item, making dinner may take a while. Ironically though, the actual fryer seems very large and bulky. It takes up a good amount of my counter space (granted, I don't have a ton of counter space to begin with). And it also weighs 16 pounds (according to the shipping box). It's too big to keep out on the counter, but it's really pretty heavy to drag out on a regular basis for cooking dinner. And if an appliance is going to cost $200, I want to be using it pretty regularly.
Bottom line for me, it cooks the food well, so if that's all you care about, this is a great item. However, it's big and heavy, yet doesn't cook very much food at one time. My recommendation is based strictly on the cooking.

Awesome, Comfortable Headphones
on July 12, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
I've had a couple of JBL speakers for my iPhones that I've always loved so I was excited to try these headphones. And I was not disappointed. Let me start off with how comfortable these are. To me, they looked very comfortable in the picture, and they absolutely live up to that. They're soft and cushioned but still feel very secure when you're wearing them.
I was very happy with the sound quality and the noise cancelling feature. I felt that both met my expectations. Considering my roommate walked up behind me when I had them on and I nearly jumped out of my chair when he tapped me on the shoulder, I'd say they were effective! The sound quality was definitely there, and I was able to happily listen to a variety of music and watch a TV show on my phone. JBL absolutely delivered with these headphones.

Solid headphones
on June 28, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
I have a bit of an obsession when it comes to headphones. I'm constantly trying out new ones (different brands, styles, price levels, etc.). I'm also incredibly picky about my headphones. I've used over the ear, neck band, ear buds (both in ear and over the ear), and I've still struggled to find the perfect pair. This pair isn't perfect, but it hits a lot of the major points for me, and this is a solid pair of headphones.
They hit my three major criteria (for wireless): 1) good connectivity 2) comfortable fit and 3) long battery life.
First, I was able to easily pair the headphones with my phone and haven't had any issues so far with them disconnecting.
Second, while not perfect, these headphones come with quite an assortment of tips to help you find the most comfortable fit. That's a big one for me because (I have to be honest) my ears seem to have a funky shape when it comes to in ear headphones fitting. The "standard" fit doesn't fit me. This gave me a lot of options. I still don't know that I've found the perfect fit which is the main reason I took a star off but better than most.
Lastly, my biggest pet peeve about wireless headphones is short battery life. You're on the go and your phone has a full charge but your headphones die, that's the worst! These headphones have been going for the last two days and have about a 12 hour battery. Just charge them at night with your phone and you're good to go.

Toss this waterproof LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker in the pool and watch it float. The crisp audio doesn't stop for snow, dirt or ice, and this Bluetooth-enabled speaker can withstand a drop from 1.2m. The battery of this LifeProof AQUAPHONICS speaker keeps going for 15 hours, and it charges your phone while it's playing.

Much better
on June 24, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
Before getting the Aquaphonics AQ11, I tried out the AQ10. The AQ10 was a bit of letdown for me. I was disappointed with the sound quality on that one. However, the AQ11 delivers where the 10 fell short. The sound is a richer experience and the volume is much more impressive.
Plus, besides the increased sound quality the overall durability of this one just seems better. They both promise to be water proof, dirt proof, snow proof, and drop proof but the AQ11 is bigger and heavier. If you're looking for a nice little portable bluetooth speaker, the AQ11 may not be for you. But if you're looking for a speaker that you can take outdoors (think camping trips, etc). then the AQ11 is perfect. You can't really beat LifeProof's durability and since the AQ11 also delivers on sound, this is a pretty great speaker.
Please note one thing, when I say the sound quality is much better, this is in comparison to the AQ10. I have still heard better quality, but this gets the job done and I would absolutely recommend it.

Excellent addition to the HP Omen Desktop
on June 23, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
I have the HP OMEN Desktop PC (870-244), which I was already very happy with. I was excited to add the Omen monitor, and it did not disappoint. As many others have mentioned, the refresh rate (144Hz) makes for a very smooth experience whether you're gaming, watching a movie, or doing anything else.
I'm also very happy with the color and resolution. The picture is very crisp and clear (it's better than my 3 year old smart TV). I also love the wide viewing angles since I often watch movies and TV on my computer. I can be in all different places around the room and still see the picture clearly.
This is an awesome monitor (especially at this price point). It's a great addition to my HP Omen desktop, but it would be an excellent monitor for any computer (gaming or otherwise).

Pretty good, not spectacular
on June 13, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
Given the advertised features on this robo vacuum (not to mention the price tag), I was really hoping to be wowed by it. There are definitely pluses but also some negatives. First off, it does clean well when the surface is flat and there are no objects impeding it. I've had cheaper robo vacs that either went right over dirt and didn't suck it up or even kicked it out of the way! This Samsung did clean up, and of course that's the main thing!
I had several issues with it though. For one, as mentioned above, the vacuum works well if it is on a level surface. But I have a minor dip in the floor between my living room and kitchen (from carpet to hard floor). The vacuum is able to go into the kitchen, but it then thinks there's an edge when it tries to get back out of the kitchen and gets stuck. This means I can't leave the vacuum to run while I'm gone because it'll never make it back to the charging station. I've had similar issues with a rug in my family room. Sometimes it gets over that ok, other times it gets stuck there as well. Additionally, it is louder than other robo vacs I've had. Although the suction (as promised by Samsung) is better, so I'd say it's a fair trade off.
Overall, I'm happy with the vacuum, but I do wish it had a little more..."get up and go" for going between rooms and over rugs etc.

Love these!
on May 24, 2017
Posted by: glspark2007
from Sacramento, CA
I actually hadn't heard of this brand before but decided to try out these headphones. I'm really glad I did! I will say these are snug, but I found them to be very comfortable. Both the fit and material made these very easy to wear for long stretches. I have a desk job where I can listen to music for a good portion of the day while I work, and I loved being able to wear these! I'm also very happy with the sound. You don't get a super deep bass from them, but I don't really like that in headphones anyway. I feel like there is an excellent balance and everything just sounded better.
I'm usually someone who goes for smaller headphones, I often use my ear buds. But for long stretches of wearing headphones, these are much better. And even though they're big, the fold down well. The only negative I might have is that they are wired. That doesn't really bother me, but with the direction that technology is going (and at this price point), I could see that putting some people off. But the comfort and balance of sound is definitely there with these.

The Google Pixel is exclusive to Verizon, so you won't be able to buy it with an AT&T account.
