Amazing bass, slight input lag

For its compact size, the soundbar features fantastic sound, with unbelievable bass. Be sure to check the documentation online for how to adjust the default settings, since at first you may not get the bass/treble mix you would like. My only other complaint about the unit is that when using the optical fibre connection, there is about a half-second delay before the unit "wakes up" and begins playback of audio. If there is a constant stream of audio coming to the unit, there is no delay, however if there is silence, the first sound made will have the first half second or so cut off. I did not experience this issue when connected using 3.5mm headphone jacks. Overall was not worth returning the unit, which works great for my purposes (general music/movie/gaming)

Too expensive, but easy to use

I bought a similar item three years ago and had to have Geek Squad install it for me. This time, I was able to complete it myself with relative ease. Comes with a hole-saw sized for the faceplates and a rod with hooks (I would still suggest taping the cables) for pull-through. Looks very clean and professional when finished.

Over-engineered but that's good, right?

Verified Purchase:Yes
Of course it's more expensive than it should be, but I've mounted three large TVs now (one with this mount, one with the ultra expensive Sanus heavy mount, and one with a cheaper knock-off) and this was by far the easiest. Comes with all the hardware one would need. At first I was concerned that it was too limited in stud placement (I had a recess in my wall, but the studs were not centered correctly) but luckily the mount was adjustable enough to make it work. I would suggest finding studs before buying the mount, and then ensuring it will work for your location, just to be safe.

Unveil rich image details in Ultra HD with this 65-inch Samsung smart TV. Its 4K technology provides enhanced color and contrast, and it lets you enjoy smooth browsing and media streaming with its quad-core processor. This Samsung smart TV enhances the quality of lower-resolution videos with its UHD upscaling capability.

Exactly what I expected

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was in the market for a mid-range 65" 4K TV, and I have owned Samsung in the past. It looks great right out of the box, is light, and interface is zippy and responsive. I was skeptical of the remote at first, but quickly fell in love. I use this TV primarily for watching content from my cable provider, as well as media saved on a PC that I have connected via an HDMI cable. I have used the "cast to device" Windows function with moderate success with this TV, however it is connected to my home network via an ethernet cable, not wireless. The Samsung store has a moderate selection of apps to fit most needs (Plex is available,) and my girlfriend likes having her Hulu and Netflix directly integrated.

Any fan of the Persona series will feel right at home here. Incredible menu transitions, stellar music, adult themes, brutal difficulty are all present. I haven't had this much fun with a console RPG in a couple years.

The top and side keep-warm elements in this Zojirushi NS-RNC18FZ 10-cup cooker maintain the temperature of your rice once it's cooked. The nonstick inner cooking pan offers reliable durability, and the cool-touch body helps ensure safe use.

Long time owner, would buy again

Verified Purchase:Yes
I first bought this same rice cooker back in 2001 while in college. It worked perfectly for 13 years until a friend unknowingly washed the pot in the dishwasher, ruining the anti-stick surface. After using whatever brand rice cooker a tenant/room mate would bring for the last several years, I needed to buy my original Zojirushi again. It works exactly as expected, with no hassle measurements and one button perfect rice. Product is made in Thailand as other reviews say (I believe my original was made in Japan) but I have not experienced any quality issues with my unit.

Pretty colors, comfortable grip

I have been using the v1 DeathAdder for as long as I can remember, and have become comfortable with the shape/feel. This DeathAdder Chroma I bought for a second computer is not only familiar, but it has a couple of neat additions. The color scheme is fun, although not necessary. The main improvement I FEEL is the rubberized grips on the sides of the mouse. BestBuy price matched this mouse for me in store, so I feel that I got a pretty nice deal. Razer products have been spotty recently, but so far I have not had any issues with this mouse.

Quick heating, even cooking, simple to use/clean

I bought this as part of a Samsung range/microwave/dishwasher/fridge combo. The oven came from the factory missing some screws in the electrical connection box, so the installers had to load it back on the truck and deliver again another day. Once installed, the unit has worked perfectly. The range heats very quickly, and the "keep warm" station has proven useful to me keeping soup warm. The buttons appeared unresponsive at first, but I realized I simply was not pressing them hard enough. The oven also makes a clicking sound when heating up, but after reading information on the Samsung website, this is apparently normal. I don't use that much, so I wont take points away. I mostly use this for the easy to clean cooktop.

Silent! Tons of space and adjustable racks

My previous dishwasher died so I purchased a Samsung range/microwave/fridge/dishwasher combo. This dishwasher has been the highlight of that purchase. Its very quiet compared to my last washer. I like the sanitize cycle, as now I feel that the water is actually getting heated up enough to get all the grime off of my dishes. I ran a cycle without the rinse aid and the dishes were very wet even a day later. I added the rinse aid for the next cycle, and it made a huge difference. Many of the racks are movable or adjustable to fit whatever configuration you may have. The racks are also spaced enough for larger/taller items.

What's not so great: You'll want to buy the rinse aid, or else you'll end with very wet dishes.

My room mate absolutely hated our tap water until we got a Samsung fridge with these filters. Other than a slight odor on my old ice, I never had a problem with the water. After using this filter for around a month now, I can truly tell a difference.
