Replaced older model. I hope this review helps.

I must say, this is a very nice Frigidaire Range.
My household used to own a similar model from about 2 years ago. The "display" on this model is much better. The fonts are larger and it's nice, because you can notice the time or temps from far away if need be. I also noticed that when this item was shipped, they didn't use industrial tape to hold down each burner - meaning = The burners on the 2015 model were not in a separate box and the tape used to hold down the burners, left "residue" that you could not clean; no matter how hard you tried. The oven's window is nicer, is very "see thru". The older models had a tint which made it hard to see inside the oven unless the light was on. The switches on this are thicker and seem more sturdy versus the older 1. But 1 thing did annoy me. The oven's inside used to have 2 grills from what I can remember. This new 1, has only 1 grill. I don't know if that's a huge issue for some, but I re-used mines from the older 1 to compensate. Very very nice range, if you're not going to spend a ton for the industrial chef models.

Innovative to say the least - nice Theater Display

When buying this "THEATER DISPLAY", I had to do some research. I was scarce when buying this at first, because of 2 reasons, 1 - a relative of mines had a Vizio in the past and the quality was fair at best and it had dead pixels. 2 - I was told by more than 1 source that Vizio was the off-brand and/or subdivision of Sony. Now on to the features. The remote that comes with the TV, is very extra BASIC. I thought, "Ok, let me survive using this TV without APPS". I tried that for a month and I couldn't. It has pre-set picture settings but none of them are ideal for what you need and what the Display Unit is capable of. So I got my hands on a very up to date phone being a Samsung 7 and I have cable internet. It took about 10-15 mins for this phone of mines to download the App - Vizio Smartcast. Again, I repeat...I thought I could survive without any Apps since I'm a simple man, butttttttt my eyes started hurting badly with the Pre-Sets already programmed in the Display Unit. So when I downloaded the App, Smartcast did allow me to tinker with ALL the settings that "normal tv's offer" - such as - sharpness, darkness, backlight and in the audio, NO there is no settings for treble or bass. Here's something fun I just discovered. All my computers within the house are "updated" in a way. Now if I watch YouTube it has an extra icon, asking would I like to watch on Computer or TV ? For example: I was watching a 4K dance video on my laptop, but when I asked it to show it on my Vizio...it paused it's picture and sound on the laptop but the TV had the functionality of the laptop like scrolling thru the video on YouTube and making a playlist and more. Now this is possibly 1 very basic feature out of many, from this "Display" (TV) So YES to really utilize and enjoy this...you NEED a Smart Phone and hopefully fast online services at home. Ok the sound quality on the Display Unit is ok, at best. It has a "nice sound to it" but not the type of sound that I'd say turn up loud because the unit's speakers weren't made for high volumes. The picture. Well the picture like some "may say" is washed down on certain things you're watching. I love baseball but at times, the green field they're playing on....the 4 corner edges of your screen may not be the same color or as vivid as the middle of your screen. But for being a somewhat affordable, somewhat brand name 4K Display Screen the picture quality to me as an overall, is very very nice. I got advice from several salesmen at different Best Buy locations. They WERE right...that due to the make of this unit and it's brand, it should "not have motion display issues", which it has not...the refresh I'll safely guess is great. Now I was going to go with L G but this was slightly cheaper and it has satisfied me. Now as for today June 2nd, I was going to buy another 4K Theater Display or TV. I "did" read that Samfung had "motion" issues, so when watching too much action, it can pause on you. Not 1 review but a few did mention this. ELLE Gee had issues with "dark colors" so I've read. This is the E series so yes the picture is better than the "Vizio 4K TV D series", the tv's with actual antenna tuners within them. 1 last note, there is only 1 "true 4K port" on the back. It's labeled "Best", so that reveals being the 4K HDMI port and the rest are not 4K. I do want another 4K display and/or TV but it must have at least 2 true 4K ports on it....must not have motion issues and or/dark color issues. So who knows...I may purchase a Vizio 50-55 M series TV/Display.
If you find a good deal on this baby, jump on it. I hope this review is helpful and in detail so, no one is lost when deciding.

These from my understanding were made from steel.
They look sturdy, attractive and conduct good heat. I checked the "hot" line and it felt pretty hot. The cold, was obviously cold. Now in terms of having these on versus your old plastic/rubber like hoses....NO, I would definitely recommend these. I believe it's also a requirement when buying washers and it's a mandated law also. They did make the new washer look even more attractive :) If you are installing your own washer or this is part of your washer's invoice, don't hesitate...buy them.

Installation, that's what it is

I got lucky with the installers of my stove and the washer that I purchased. HONESTLY and I'm honest, everybody knows how I am. Best Buy has stepped up with "better, more mature, professional Techs". I was actually shocked. In the past, they did have rude, unprofessional, good near illiterate like Techs. Why did I have to go there ? Well when I purchased a Frigidaire Gallery Range in the past then - There shouldn't be 1 short 5'3 man carrying a whole range on his back. By him doing so, he scratched the appliance and my house. The gentlemen who installed my washer and my new stove, both sets of Techs were a COMPLETE 360 of who Best Buy used to send out. Thank You....

Samsung's Top Load Washer with 4.5 cu. ft. capacity allows larger loads, so you can spend less time doing laundry. Vibration Reduction Technology keeps loads balanced and quiet even at high speeds, while Self Clean keeps your laundry drum fresh and odor-free, so it's ready for the next wash..

I understand that technology at times can be "enhanced" or degrade when it should actually be much better and mature with time. Certain appliances like refrigerators, washers, and even TVs...well they don't have the longevity like the Old School - older products. This particular washer I read about in reviews. I had to take at least a week to research what I wanted....my budget, but longevity. So I found this at a price around $500. Other older style washers costed similar but this had a digital display for time/trouble codes. It had a tinted see-thru top window. It didn't have the huge annoying roller in the middle of the washer. It's an intelligent washer. Makes a very cool sound when turned on and set to the wash style, desired. If you use the Normal Setting it utilizes water up to 50% of the machine. I like that it automatically offers a high speed spin for the last 10 or so minutes of it's cycle. The size of the machine is larger then the older styled conventional washing machines. When it's done with it's workload, it doesn't buzz...it actually makes a very catchy, yes CUTE music for like 20-30 seconds. Yes it has the impression of the Ice Cream Man, in a way. So I believe with how much water it consumes and the amount of space and the spin it provides, it makes the machine - efficient. The spin is strong enough to ring out your clothes pretty well. Rather than using your dryer for 55-70 mins with old washers....you can use your dryer for 40-50 mins. I did also read about the "deep water cycle" from reviewers and how the users got leaks from the machine from using this wash cycle. I myself, am afraid of trying it. I'll stay basic. If you can get this machine - new for $499..it may be the best money you may have invested in something. (well so far so good) last note, I did get the geek squad protection because ANY washing machine of the present, can possibly die out on you....so no risks being warranty free.....get it.
I HOPE this and other reviews help. I've tried to be in detail as best as I can. Thank You Again :)

Classic Game Redone with PERKS

Verified Purchase:Yes
I first saw this game when it was released only with limited characters. The preview I saw was at Lame Drop. After seeing characters like Jago and TJ Combo, it brought back memories. This game is a complicated/combo/button masher. Once your learn the combos, you're good to go. Now I got this shipped to my home. A HUGE LOGICAL SUGGESTION FOR BOTH XboX - Microsoft and PS4 - Sony. When you package your games, PLEASE - put something solid in the middle of your game case, so when anyone shipping your game, wants to ship it with cheap "media mail packaging" then they're good to go, without worries. Within the past 5-10 years I've ran into many disc based games coming in either cracked cases or the games were jiggling inside the case they came in. Can ANYONE on this planet fix this issue because tons of people still DO love physical copies of games.
Thank You

Nice product

I like this product due to the fact that it's nice in size and how you can have more than 1 plug in it without deciding, "which 1 do I take out and which 1 can I keep plugged up" ? It also has the grey plastic on top of each outlet. These plastic grey slots, slide. That's a nice safety feature. Now I did get a huge kick out of the shipment that came in the mail. When I received this surge protector, it came in a HUGE BOX and I do mean HUGE. I thought someone sent me a whole video game system or something was incorrectly sent. When I opened the box, OH...it's just the surge protector in a huge wide box. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Does the job for most of the part

Verified Purchase:Yes
I read reviews on this item, before deciding to buy this. I believe I was more worried about the front of the phone, more than anything. When I bought the S7 Edge T-Mobile themselves mentioned that people broke their phones, thee exact moment they opened up their packages for the phone shipment. I did research and thought, this item was local at my Best Buy...but I WILL NOT turn the phone on or take it out the house until it's protected. It's a good case, but I believe...it caters to women better. Women have purses, stuff this phone with it's case in your purse. With us men having wallet, keys and phone....it's a little difficult to keep in your pocket. Overall is it this the best possible case, YES. Is it annoying when taking pics or recording, YES. Will "any case" guarantee protection of your phone's front screen, NO.

Very good SSD, especially for price paid.

I can't remember if I bought this SSD for $90-95. But I will share this, so I "hope" it helps. This is a very good SSD in terms of "efficiency and speed". I used to have a high level Sandisk in my laptop and unfortunately it was defective and I got blue screens. When it "did work"...it was OK and OK at best at keep my laptop's battery alive. With THIS SSD, it's much more efficient and very quick. The efficiency I can say has gone up and easy 10% or more = for the Ungeeky it means I get more time out of my battery like 30-45 mins extra and didn't dissipate heat hardly at all. YES buy it !!

When building on a budget, the EVGA 600W 80 PLUS is a great choice at a low cost. Supporting 49A on a single +12V rail provides more options without having to reduce your component requirements. Save space with the 600W's compact design, wellplaced power switch and fully sleeved cables. The 600W offers the connections and protections needed for basic system builds. With a standard 3 year warranty and ultra quiet fan design the 600W will be a great asset for your next build on a budget.

My first experience with EVGA was with it's GeForce Video Cards, which in the past were not that good, until the GTX 700 series on up. This power supply was on sale for $30, DUMB me, I should've bought 2 of them. Brand name in computer parts and 600 watts for $30, my mistake. But very good product.
