Great add-on for your mouse
on October 24, 2019

I wasn't quite sure what these glide feet do until a gaming friend of mine told me about them. These pads stick to the bottom of your mouse and provide a far-better experience with your mouse than on a table top or even a mousepad. I often have problems with using my mouse on the surface of my desk as the cursor doesn't always track the way I want it to. I stuck these pads onto my gaming mouse and found an immediate improvement in how my mouse responds to my movements.
The adhesive on these pads seems to be excellent and has shown no wear/tear or slippage despite some intense gaming sessions. If you want to extend the life of your mouse and get a better experience with your gaming, give these pads a try!

Great coffee and great value
on October 16, 2019

from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I owned a Mr Coffee brewing machine years ago and recall that it lasted a long time. Since then, I've tried several different brands from traditional machines to the single serve machines. I wanted to go back to a good-old fashioned coffee maker. I think the single serve machines are wasteful in how much trash they produce.
When I unboxed the Mr. Coffee, I was very impressed by the packaging and how they engineered the components (especially the glass pot) to arrive to your doorstep unbroken. After setting up the machine, we tried our first pot of coffee. This is a great, simple and straightforward brewing machine. The coffee is great and the controls are easy and intuitive.
I've you're looking to go back to a simple approach to brew your coffee, this Mr Coffee machine is a great value.

Great printer - Next generation
on October 3, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I have a larger Brother printer for my home buisness but I needed a smaller, but robust printer for our second home. I made the switch to Brother printers when I had ongoing problems with the leading brand of printers. They didn't last and were very slow.
This brother printer is a quality device. I love that the ink is all in one cartridge now and with normal use, the cartridge should last for one year. There is also a gauge that estimates the number of pages that can still be printed with the cartridge (great!!). This printer handles several different sizes of paper and the printing speed is super-fast. I was able to connect the printer to my WiFi network in 30 seconds so I was up and running with printing capability for my laptop, iPad and iPhone as well.
This printer is larger than some of the low-end models but the capabilities far-exceed those. This printer rivals much more expensive and larger printers.
I was surprised to see that Brother has a two-year warranty on the printer. You don't often see that but my other Brother printer hasn't missed a beat in four years so I expect to be using this for a long time to come.

Great device for your health
on September 21, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I've worked in an office environment for my entire career. This means sitting at my desk or sitting in thousands of meetings. My posture has been terrible for years and I live with ongoing lower back pain. Despite trying to think about improving it, I've had no progress. WIth the Upright - GO 2™ Posture Trainer, I now have something to give me a gentle reminder throughout the day that I need to continually improve my posture.
I was skeptical about sticking something on my back, but after the first 30 minutes or so, I didn't even notice it other than the gentle reminders to stop slouching. This device requires downloading an app which tracks your posture. The app allows you to set what you want the device to do. You can "train" or "track" your posture. Training mode enables the device to vibrate when your back is not in a good posture position. Tracking mode provides push notifications to your phone on how your doing. I chose to go with training mode.
I've been using the device for a few days now. Although I haven't noticed any decrease in my lower back pain, I will continue to use it and see how I feel in the next thirty days. The only thing I don't like is the need to order the pads which stick to your back. They come in 30-day packs.
This is a very interesting device to improve your overall health.

Great for added productivity
on September 21, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I have several legacy devices for my MacBook that I have used for several years. WIth the newer MacBooks, they don't have all of the connection ports they once had. The Platinum - Dual USB-C-to-8-Port Hub allows me to connect things like my CD/DVD drive as well as a variety of other devices. I only have two USB ports on my laptop, but the Port has two additional USB 3.0 ports, a USB C port, an additional HDMI port as well as an ethernet port which Apple no longer includes even on their large MacBook pro.
In addition to the features & capabilities, the hub is very stylish and looks perfect sitting alongside my space gray MacBook.
I'm able to multitask now with all of my devices connected to my laptop. This is a great device and a solid value.

Speck cases are great!
on August 30, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I've used a Speck case for every one of my last three iPhones. I love the case and the durability of the material. The design is great but what I like most are the grippy sides of the case. I could never use the iPhone without a case as it would constantly be falling out of my hands or my pockets. The Speck grip allows me to have a firm grasp of the phone every time I'm carrying it.
I highly recommend this case!

Great quality - well designed
on July 21, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I've owned another dashcam but it didn't last very long. I tried the Nextbase 522GW as I had seen some good reviews on it. I liked the features as well as the look so I decided to get it. I was impressed with the packaging of the device as well as the information given on how to set it up. I was also impressed with the design of the device as well as the 3" touchscreen display.
All of the cables and mounting bracket parts were included and well-labeled. Compared to my last dashcam, this smaller unit packs much more into the devices. The design of the buttons on the touchscreen display were very intuitive and clear.
It's important to follow the instructions closely. I didn't download the app first so I had to go back when things weren't connecting properly. When I had the app, my phone connected quickly and I was up and running.
The quality of video on this dashcam is excellent. The app is also well-designed as all navigation elements are clearly labeled and easy to learn.
If you're looking for a dashcam in this price range, I highly-recommend the Nextbase 522GW.

Great device

The Belkin ThunderBolt 3 Mini Dock is the perfect solution for my MacBook Pro. I often have to connect several different devices to my MacBook. It doesn't have enough connections for all of my devices and external monitor. The Mini Dock allows for multiple different devices to be connected into the dock.....then one cable connects into my MacBook.
I didn't have to figure out how it works - you just plug your devices into the dock, then connect the cable into your MacBook. Great device!

Great quality and value
on June 27, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I've been using the leading brand printer for years but the quality of those printers has deteriorated over the years. I decided to try this Epson EcoTank printer and have been pleasantly surprised with the quality and speed of this printer.
The printer prints quickly unlike my old printer that took a minute or more to cycle from a cold state. It is quiet for a printer in this price category.
The setup was very easy by way of the step-by-step guide. Epson supplies some small bottles of ink to get you started. I've never had a printer with an onboard system for ink. I think I'm really going to like it and I believe it will save a lot of money on purchasing ink cartridges over the years. Make sure you follow the instructions carefully and try to avoid spilling ink as you fill the tanks. Epson has a great solution for that as they custom fit the color for the bottle of ink with the corresponding color in the tank. It appears that you can't overfill the tank.
The initial priming of the printer does take some time (about 8-10 minutes or so), but after that, pages print out quickly.
The WiFi connection was easy as it recognized my WiFi network with no additional hassle. This is a great, must-have feature for any printer these days.
This is a great printer. I definitely recommend it for your consideration of a printer in this price range.

Better quality signal
on June 27, 2019
Posted by: Nabob
from Minneapolis, MN, USA
I've struggled to find a good solution for over-the-air broadcast signals since I cut the cable cord. I've tried three other solutions and had marginal quality signal strength....especially during the day. In addition, one of the local network channels broadcasts on UHF so I haven't been able to receive it.
The RCA antenna has provided a better-quality signal strength than the other leading brands. I still can't receive the UHF station (an NBC network station) but the consistency of signal from the RCA antenna has definitely been better.
