Not what I expected.

I was hoping for a real-time GPS tracking device for a missing pet. You know, log in and see where Fido has run off to. But, that's not how this device works. Instead you need the collar based tracker in your hand and connected to your PC to view your pet's activity. Logging in to the G-paws website allows you to upload your pet's activity to be viewed over satellite imagery. Pretty cool, but not exactly useful, at least to me. Battery life so far has only been 1.5 - 2hrs. That said, the device is pretty small and seems pretty well constructed. Bottom line. If you wanna know if Mr. Whiskers has been in the neighbors bushes this is your purchase. If you want to know where a missing pet may be, look for something else. A little more external product info may be needed.

Control your life with the Amazon Echo. It started with a music player that could play anything from Prime Music to Spotify and Pandora, and it gives you hands-free convenience, yet it can now control lights, switches and thermostat and answer questions thanks to advanced voice recognition. Use the Amazon Echo to order an Uber or even pizza from Domino's.

One step closer to Jarvis

I'm a gadget guy and I've been watching this product for a while. I've read and read about the capabilities and finally decided to pull the trigger when I saw it on the shelf. It's been about 3 weeks now and I've learned a lot of the features. Alexa can tell you the forecast, your commute, and even some dad jokes. The sound quality is much better than most of my other Bluetooth speakers but she has to be plugged in all the time, no internal battery with this model. Right now it seems like more of a novelty in my kitchen but I plan on adding some home automation to get my money's worth. I don't think you'll be disappointed with the hardware or AI but it is difficult to add extra capabilities or "skills" through the necessary app because you have to scroll through all of them sequentially. The developers should add categories or a search function by capability. Last I checked there were 2 other models will the same AI capabilities and at lower price points. Read some more reviews and articles and find the one you can justify dropping $100+ on. You'll like it!

Not bad for the money

2700sf /hard floors. I looked at all the different brands and decided on this one based on price point and the lithium battery(9/10). I've heard and read about other brands/ models not cutting the mustard when it came to battery life, this little guy goes for a pretty decent amount of time before he quits (8/10). I was also worried it wouldn't clean the whole house, it does pretty ok but could probably use a friend(8/10),again 2700sf. When it comes to cleaning I'd say I'd does an okay job. It picks up quite a bit but not everything (7/10). It could be easier to program, but you get what you pay for (7/10). This won't replace your old vacuum, but may reduce the time and frequency you have to push it around; so a win.
The good: competitively priced, relatively easy to maintain. Parts are available should you need them (I have not). Reduces time pushing old vacuum.
The bad: AI could be more systematic in cleaning, doesn't always find its way to the charging dock, can clog with pet hair. (But to be fair we have more pets than I care to admit).
The bad: AI could be more systematic in cleaning, doesn't always find its way to the charging dock, can clog with pet hair. (But to be fair we have more pets than I care to admit).
Bottom line: For the money (~$225 +/- $25) it does a pretty ok job. Maybe at a higher price point it'll clean itself and pick up everything.

Ok. So I've purchased 3 of these all together for the family. They work! and they work well for what they can do. It won't replace your laptop per se but is great for surfing, checking email, streaming video etc. I bought one for my computer-challenged mother-in-law, my wife, and my 5 year old (I know, but even she can use it and not mess it up). I personally use a Macbook Pro. It would be comparing apples to oranges if I said they were anything alike but they both work very well. If you need a laptop for work or school buy something more suited to those tasks. If you need a laptop to browse, check email and stream, this is the one.

Had to replace my dead Kuerig 1.0. New 2.0 has a touch screen and a few more options such as cup size and strength. Also with the 450 I can brew a carafe if I want a little more coffee. I opted for the reusable filter to save a little more $$ down the road. It works a bit differently than my first Kuerig and brews in spurts but makes the coffee just like it is supposed too. Crisis averted.

I wasn't looking to buy a 4k tv with a roku player built in, but I'm glad I found this one. 43" screen is not too big, not too small. Picture quality is very very good for the price point(its not a 10K brand name). Sound is better than most other more expensive TVs I own. And I'm very impressed with the built-in Roku player. Up until now I've only ever had Apple TV. Roku is beginning to win me over. All in all I'd recommend this to anyone.
