HAS IT'S PROS & CONS
on November 15, 2016
Posted by: Mikegyver
Overall, I give the groomer a 4-Star rating because of its quality. It is comfortable to hold and use and is very quiet compared to what I am used to. Although I haven't used all of its multiple attachments, it does a great job with the ones I have.
Having all of these attachments obviously makes it a very useful groomer for the Whole Body which is super!
I do have 1 drawback (CONS) for myself. The groomer DOES NOT come with a base unit for it to be set up on your vanity in an organized way ie: Plug it in (standing up) in a base charger that has a storage capacity for all the trimmer heads. It does come with a leather pouch for storage/travel but in my opinion this is inconvenient and unorganized for the home user BUT definitely great for the traveler or for those who don't mind either unpacking it every time or just leaving it just lay on your vanity space. Overall it is still a super groomer and the value is fair and I'm sure this design "oversight" will be improved upon soon. Maybe Phillips Norelco will make one available as an "extra" to go with it soon?

Very Comfortable
on November 14, 2016
Posted by: Mikegyver
I like the flexible sides of the brush. Sort of like a shock absorber if you will. They seem to hug the contours of all of your teeth/gums and feel very comfortable. Leaving your mouth with a pleasant clean and tingly feel.
Blue portion of bristles change white apparently over time to indicate a need for replacing. These also snap onto your brush easily.
No "color-coding" but do have code symbol for type of brush head. If you use the same base unit for your entire family, You may have to come up with your own plan to code whose brush is whose

FEEL THE CLEAN!
on November 14, 2016
Posted by: Mikegyver
The last electric toothbrush I owned was 15 yrs ago. So, after using this one, I was really impressed with how technology has evolved! After trying all settings, I absolutely had no soreness or discomfort of any kind. As a matter of fact, even after the 1st use, my teeth and gums felt so healthy. My gums really had a vibrant clean feel and a "pleasing" tingle for a couple of hours afterwards. In other words, a very clean and healthy feel.
The app was easy to work with for me but I wish they had a macOS version of it.
It does take a little getting used to when you are used to using a manual brush for a long time, but I got the hang of it fairly quickly. You can make adjustments directly on the brush controls for activating/de-activating the pressure sensor, the brush pacer and the "Easy Start" features.
You do have to make your brushing mode selections Before turning it on which is no biggy. So, that means you can't start out on clean and change to white mode or deep clean while the brush is on.
Overall, I give this a 5-Star for high quality and for how fresh your mouth will feel after using it!

Great Photo Editor
on November 9, 2016
Posted by: Mikegyver
I am new to photo editing so there is a bit for me to learn but I'm sure this will come easily with just a little practice since the software seems fairly simple and instructive.
I like the ability to easily keep track of all my photos and vids with the organizer that has smart tags to scroll easily by type such as, places, people, dates, folders and more!
This will certainly help to make some impressive end results

Super Speed & Set-Up Ease
on October 21, 2016
Posted by: Mikegyver
I hooked up my new Linksys WRT AC3200 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router 2 days ago. It is just a Beast of a router in terms of speed and great looks as well! I use an iMac Retina as my main device and set-up was smooth and very quick. I did have to manually make a couple of changes with my wireless printer in the way of settings but only took an extra few minutes and was No Biggy!
With several devices connected there is a big noticeable difference in performance and speed of any tasks. Even when using with only my iMac, I obviously didn't increase my speed I pay for from ATT, But with this Linksys attached inline, I have serious improvements in performance and speed of all tasks now including streaming video! I love it and would recommend to everybody! Thank you Linksys!

Works great for my needs

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a Canon SX710HS and used this card at my local Air Force Airshow and I had zero problems with pics or video, even with rapid picture shots. It also uploaded to my iMac very quickly! I am an amateur but have No complaints with this card. I bought it because it seemed to be high speed and since I am not very knowledgeable about using my camera, the reviews seemed to say it was really good and it was also on sale at about a 1/3 the regular price

BAD HARD DRIVE--TWICE!!
on May 16, 2015
Posted by: Mikegyver
Verified Purchase:Yes
After buying this PC, I thought I was happy until I got to using it. It seemed to be bogging down compared to my 10 years experience with my 10 yr old Dell XPS400 (using same internet connection & speed I've always had)This HP Envy was real slow and I had to close & restart...Over & Over. Windows would freeze and I figured out that when I changed tabs and then back to "frozen" tab, it would work again. I Brought it back, Geek Squad hooked it up and said it had a "Bad Hard Drive" I exchanged for an identical unit & was happy all seemed good the 1st 4 days, Then...POOF, I had the same issues, so I returned for a refund. ALSO>> I paid cash for this and Best Buy would not refund me cash because of the dollar amount!! They instead mailed a check. That was an inconvenience! BOTTOM LINE: I liked the computer very much but with 2 units in a row having Hard Drive problems straight out of the box, I wouldn't recommend this one to anyone. Hope this helps. (HP needs to get on the ball with quality control!!!!!!!!)

My iMac Retina was a major purchase in which I have a ton to learn about yet since it's my 1st mac but so far the picture quality is fantastic! I just need better internet speed in order to enjoy it even more as it buffers on 4k video with ATT 6.0 which is highest I can get here. Once I learn more however, I'm sure to love this more & more every day!

Clean every corner of your home with this Hoover Fusion Pet cordless vacuum. The One Pwr lithium battery delivers fade-free power for larger jobs, and fast charging speeds eliminate wait times between cleaning sessions. This Hoover Fusion Pet cordless vacuum includes several attachments for cleaning upholstery, crevices and other hard-to-reach areas.
 

Mine recently stopped working and I just bought it a minth ago. I’m not sure why. Help!

It may be possible that it has a clog somewhere. Check and clean the rollers and the tube because the vacuum does have a feature to cut off in the event of a clog so that way it will not burn up the motor, Which is a great feature if you ask me.
I do hope this helps and it solves your issue. Thanks

Listen to your playlist in peace with these Sony headphones. They have a 40mm dome driver to deliver the full depth of audio, and the noise cancelling feature minimizes outside disturbances for a better listening experience. These Sony headphones have a battery life of up to 30 hours for extended jam sessions.
 

The shooting ranges for pistols and long guns, has tremendous loud noises and concussion type noises. I have an early pair of the Sony noise cancelling over the ear headphones and they are useless. My question is if the new Sony WH1000xm2.. would work?

I honestly cannot say for sure about the gun noise if you are the one shooting as I don't have that experience yet BUT Can say that they pretty much cancelled out the noise of the "Directly Overhead" Low Flying B-52 Bombers that fly over my house every day. I live across the street from the base...At the same time, I was cranking up my music at a good volume with these headphones during that experience. I hope that may help some.

What are the differences from these headphones to the original 1000x other than battery life?

You Should Get About 30 Hours of Play Time Wireless and About 40 When Wired. Hope This Helps

Enjoy your music while training with these Under Armour wireless headphones. These audio devices are sweat proof and have TwistLock technology to keep the earpieces in place through any workout. Designed by JBL, these Under Armour wireless headphones meet the highest audio standards and provide up to 8 hours of battery life to last many workouts.
 

What's the diference between this and the 149 dollars ones?

In my opinion, When the JBL's are properly fitted to your ear (ie: correct tip size) You will experience awesome sound. The fitment in the ear really makes a world of difference (and should save you money from buying a more expensive headset)

Wake up to a delicious cup of java with this Ninja Coffee Bar glass carafe system. The 10-cup pitcher holds 50 oz. of coffee when entertaining or brews a single cup at a time, prepared at the infusion level of your choice. This Ninja Coffee Bar glass carafe system has a built-in frother for hot and cold drink creations.
 

What's the difference between this system and the other system (coffee bar brewer, with choice of glass or thermal carafe). Just trying to figure out which to purchase.

From my understanding, the unit with the Thermal Carafe does not have a warming plate on the machine since Ninja states that the insulated thermal carafe will keep the coffee hot for 2 hours so it's not needed
