Achieve the deep-fried flavor you love, without all the oil and added calories. The Chefman TurboFry™ Touch Air Fryer allows you to bake, fry and roast like a pro. This airfryer requires little to no oil, so there’s less of that fried oil smell lingering in the house and less fat that you’re consuming. Its large 3.5-liter capacity and flat basket gives you the ability to cook enough for a hungry crowd all at once. Skip the microwave! Reheat soggy leftovers in the air fryer to return them to their original texture. Make better-for-you fries that are just as crispy and tasty, roast chicken thighs, or heat up leftovers for a quick and easy meal. The temperature control with 60-minute timer automatically shuts off once food is done, so you never have to worry about burning or drying out your food. Its space saving basket is removable and dishwasher safe for easy clean-up, so you’ll have more time to dream up your next air-fried meal!

The air fryer design is clean, compact and the digital readout is clear and very simple to use. The non-stick surface was simple to clean but did require some slight scrubbing as water alone was not enough to clear the surface. The manufacturer states the basket is dishwasher safe, but in my experience nonstick surfaces deteriorate faster when placed in the dishwasher so this was cleaned by hand. The interface is touchpad so there are no physical buttons. Once you plug it in, it automatically starts up. I would suggest unplugging when not in use. I have never used an air fryer before and was very impressed by how well it cooked the food. My test was some Turkey Hot Links that typically do not crisp well. The Chefman made sure that these not only cooked quickly, but that the skin got crisp like a more traditional hotlink. They were cooked after 10 minutes and needed to be turned to crisp the other side. Had I turned them after 5 minutes they likely would have been completely crisp and cooked in 10 minutes rather than 15. Great little unit. Can adequately prepare food for 2 and maybe 3 people.

It's USB storage

Nothing much to say other than it is good USB storage. It did not feel flimsy and does the job well.

Not the worst headset
on February 10, 2017
Posted by: ArmadaJim
Verified Purchase:Yes
I found this headset to have reasonable sound clarity and very good voice pick up. The best thing about it is the voice commands. It was very easy to answer calls and the caller ID system works well. The biggest downfall is comfort. I am on the phone for 8 hours a day and I had a hard time keeping this in my ear. Some days it felt like putting small Lego in my ear. Other days it was comfortable but it hardly felt secure, it was constantly falling out. I am a big fan of Jabra, but this was not their best.

Does not mark up your dash
on September 23, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
It holds your GPS unit and as a rubberized base with weight. It does not slide around the dashboard like other lightweight stands might. A great product to have when traveling, so you do not have to worry about how to mount the GPS in a rental or leave your life in the hands of the rental companies GPS unit.

It adapts HDMI to VGA
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: ArmadaJim
Verified Purchase:Yes
It's an adapter that will go from HDMI to VGA. It works fine and was very helpful when attaching my wife's MacBook Pro to a much older projector. There's not a lot more that can be said other than it is worth the 25 Best Buy points to write the review.

An excellent GPS device
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: ArmadaJim
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife purchased this for her trip to Georgia. She had never visited before and had never used this device before. We have had a Garmin in the past and it has worked very well, which is our major reason for going back to that brand. They did not let us down. Easy to use voice commands and very impressive directions that called out landmarks by saying things like "turn left after the McDonald's" and that made her first time navigating through Atlanta very easy. We now keep this in my Toyota sienna as it has the factory GPS built-in and by the 5th step of the voice commands, you are ready to put your fist through the screen. Toyota's navigation= abysmal, Garmin navigation= perfection.

The Targus Laser Presentation Remote features a simplistic button layout, making it easy to give presentations. The Key Lock™ Technology locks non-essential buttons when not needed to help eliminate accidental button presses. The integrated laser pointer allows the presenter to highlight important content while the backlit buttons provide visibility in environments with low lighting. The latest RF 2.4GHz cordless technology works from up to 40ft away, providing flexibility while presenting in large conference rooms or classrooms. The mini USB receiver stores inside of the presenter so it's always ready to use. The device is immediately ready to use and comes stocked with one AAA battery.

Bulky and basic
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: ArmadaJim
Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife purchased this for a presentation that she had to give and found that it was bulky and simplistic. She ended up purchasing the Logitech R800 instead and had much better satisfaction from that device. This is good if you just need something simple but the Logitech device, although a little more expensive, is worth it for the grip and function.

A great presenter device

This is classic Logitech. Good comfort in the hand and the addition of the timer is great when you are giving a presentation with a deadline. The laser pointer is green and easy to see (also great if you have cats). The USB dongle nests beautifully inside the presenter for easy storage. The transfer

Not much to say, it is a fast USB flash drive with good capacity. Can't really get any more detailed than that.

Is this both Wi-Fi & electrical? I keep browsing reading the detail descriptions for one to say so
Yes it is WIFI capable via an app on your phone or tablet and you will need to know the password for your WIFI network to add it. It will require an electrical outlet in your home to plug into for power to cook and interface with the app. The WiFI feature allows it to communicate with your phone for remote monitoring as well as interactive recipes and cooking history, there are no other interactions served by WIFI on the device.
