The Alienware Gaming Desktop is exactly what my avid 13 year old gaming teenager wanted for his gaming needs. He is very happy with the amount of storage this computer has which allows for more games and apps without taking up all the storage space. He plays Fortnite, Minecraft, Portal 1-2 and Titanfall 2 mostly and has no storage or lag issues with the Alienware Desktop. It has enough RAM to play higher quality games with no lag or the need to restart after freezing like with his old computer. The graphics are amazing and can go up to 112 FPS and there is no screen tearing. It has fast start up after you shut it down which is nice. The apps and games also open very quickly. The unit itself is a compact PC case with great air intake and output. The RGB on the case is vibrant and matches perfectly with his light up headset. There are a lot of USB ports so you can use anything that has a USB with ease. Overall, he is very happy with the Alienware Gaming Desktop and highly recommends it for gamers!

The Hisense 65" Class LED Smart TV has so far proven to be a great TV. It was packed amazingly in the box and set up was easy and straight forward. We mounted it to the wall without issue as well. It took three of us to hoist it up and secure it properly. The TV itself is very nice looking, light weight and thin. The picture quality looks really good although I did give 4 Stars because our other TV seems slightly crisper. The color is beautiful and the sound is what you would expect from most TV's like this. We use a sound bar which is what I would recommend or utilize Bluetooth and connect to a wireless speaker system. Once everything was hooked up, we did have to do a few updates that took a little bit of time, but after those were completed, we were able to use the TV right away. We were easily able to watch TV through our cable channels and also access Netflix and watch DVD's without any issues. I like the Google assist feature and the way the remote is configured. There are so many features we have yet to experience, but look forward to utilizing them in the future. So far, the Hisense TV has proven to be a great TV.

Great Earbuds for Someone Who Doesn't Like Earbuds
on June 10, 2019

I, by nature, am not an earbud kind of person. I usually find them uncomfortable and cumbersome, but I will say I like the Skullcandy Push Truly Wireless Earbuds. I will be travelling overseas soon and wanted some earbuds to use on the plane that are wireless and comfortable. I love that they come in a charging case so they will not be easily lost. I cannot comment on the length of a charge yet, but I can say they are comfortable and play music incredibly well. I do find all the different directions for changing volume, etc quite overwhelming, but I'm sure it will become easier over time. I look forward to using them on my trip, but so far they are a favorite for me.

Watch TV with theater-style sound or enjoy high-quality music with this 3.1-channel Definitive Technology soundbar. It's only 1.75 inches thick so it blends discreetly into your home environment, and the 8-inch wireless subwoofer adds tight bass to extend the system's audio frequency range. This Definitive Technology sound bar includes Chromecast for streaming music or video over Wi-Fi.

The sound quality of the Definitive Technology - Studio Slim Series 3.1-Channel Soundbar System is superb. The set up and connection of the soundbar and subwoofer was easy. We had it up and going in no time. We love the look of it and the slim design is great. There are a few things that prevent me from giving it 5 stars. First of all, when you want to increase/decrease the sound it takes a lot of pushing of the button on the remote to hear the difference. Then it seems to drastically change volume all of a sudden. Makes for a lot of up and down pressing to get it at the volume you want. Also, we have had the sound go out all of a sudden for no reason. The remote no longer would work, but you could increase/decrease the sound by pushing the buttons on the soundbar itself. We had to disconnect and reconnect everything for it to work again. When this happened, my husband could still use his iPhone to change the sound, just not the remote. It is almost like the remote became disconnected and wouldn't work. Once, we got it working again, there have been no issues. I do wish the remote were made better. It seems very lightweight and cheaply made. The overall sound quality is amazing and the subwoofer gives a lot of bass when we play music. It is an amazing soundbar, but the remote isn't the greatest. I wish it matched the quality of the Soundbar and subwoofer.

It even learns your cleaning habits and offers personalized schedules and recommendations during pollen and pet-shedding seasons. A specially designed Corner Brush and 40X the suction* pull in embedded dirt, dust, and pet hair from wherever it hides—for cleaning that fits seamlessly into your life.

The iRobot - Roomba s9 Wi-Fi Connected Robot Vacuum is very easy to set up and start using right away. It was an easy install of the app on our iPhone. We have a 3600 square foot home with both tile and carpet through out. We especially like how the iRobot was able to get along the edges of the wall and corners with the revolving brush. We have two large, short haired dogs, so getting the edges and corners is a must. The iRobot cleans for a very long time on one charge and covers a lot of ground before returning to the base. The biggest drawback is the need to manually empty the machine when it gets full with dirt and hair. Also, we wish the iRobot would stop and alert that it needs to be emptied. It does notify you that it’s full, but will continue to clean. We wish this model had the auto empty feature like some of the other models, but are happy with it’s ability to clean our carpets thoroughly and get the corners and edges where other robot vacuums we have tried have failed. Overall, it is a very good robot vacuum that does a great job.

We have come to trust Turtle Beach for quality and durability having already purchased one pair of their headphones. The Elite Pro 2 Wired Gaming Headset have so far been great for our boys and their gaming needs. My ten years old son's other headset in another brand stopped working so he needed a replacement. Turtle Beach to the rescue. He says the headset is comfortable and has amazing sound quality. He does not use the microphone, but did try it to see how it worked and he said it was great. He mainly uses it for Xbox gaming, but did take them on a recent car trip to use with his iPod and they worked great. They are on the big side, but most gaming headsets are. The side panels come off, but we are not really sure why. Might be an aesthetic or there might be a purpose we just haven't discovered yet. I wasn't sure about the white color at first, since all the others we have are black, but I have found the white makes them easily found in their bedroom. The color really pops. Overall, we are very happy with the Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 Wired Gaming Headset.

First of all, the Logitech G635 7.1 Surround Sound LIGHTSYNC Gaming Headset is extremely comfortable to wear. My 10 year old son usually complains of sweating around the ears while wearing headphones, but not with these. He did say they are a little heavy, but nothing that bothered him too much. The headphones fit over his ears completely and were not cumbersome while he played. He of course liked that they light up too. The sound is about the same as other gaming headsets he has used before. He did say there was a little echo when playing them with his Xbox, but not too bad. He also said the bass could be a little better. Overall, he enjoys the headset and loves the fact that they don't make his head and ears sweaty. And the sound quality was good in his opinion while he plays.

Calphalon - Quartz Heat Countertop Oven works really good. I love the size capacity and the fact that there are many different heating settings and functions. The larger capacity does mean it takes up more space on the counter top. We have used it for toasting, baking and reheating without issue. It does take some trial and error to know which toast setting to use, but other than that, it works nice. I like the extra trays to put things like pizza or sliders on. They are easy to clean. Overall, a really nice toaster oven that will get a lot of use.

Prepare a variety of meals faster with this nonstick Ninja cooker. It operates as much as 70 percent faster than traditional methods, and the digital control panel lets you select the function your recipe needs. This 1000W Ninja cooker holds up to 6 quarts and includes a stainless steel rack for steaming.

The Ninja - 6-Quart Instant Cooker is awesome! Easy to follow instructions and extremely easy clean up make this cooker a winner. I have wanted to try a pressure cooker for awhile and finally got one. The handy "getting started" card was very helpful and gave step by step instructions on how to build and release the pressure to make cooking a breeze. We tried the Minestrone Soup and pork ribs and both were easy and delicious. The cooking and prep time were quick and clean up was easy. You can use it to saute or steam and also as a pressure cooker to make soups, stews, veggies and meats. I can't wait to try more recipes. Once you get the hang of building up the pressure and then turning the valve to release the steam, cooking is easy and fool proof. I really like the way the lid stores on the top to avoid laying it down on the counter. Great design!

The Logitech - G Pro Wired Optical Gaming Mouse is a decent mouse for video game use. I got this for my 12 year old son who enjoys playing Fortnight and other various games on his laptop. The usability of the mouse is great and my son says it’s much better than his current mouse. He is left handed, so I wish this was an ambidextrous mouse. He is able to use it ok with his right hand though. Overall, seems to work well. Time will tell if it holds up to a pre-teen’s use.
