Got these on sale. It was a good chance to try some flavors. Not a big fan of coconut mocha, it's tolerable but I'm glad I didn't buy a whole box of that flavor. I'm not a big fan of flavored coffee. Flavored coffees have a real strong off taste. Putting flavors into regular coffee tastes better to me. The rest of the assortment is good. It's just a personal taste.

Nice alternative to coffee sometimes. I have these when I don't want all the caffeine. Good alternative to tea. Warms me up and is relaxing. Little aftertaste compared to brewing apple cider, but I've grown to like it. My favorite flavor.

I bought two of these. I have 3 roku set ups at my place. One is a roku tv. Nice to be able to use one remote instead of two. Read reviews about difficulty on changing ota channels. Problem solved.

Seems like a nice antenna but it doesn't work for me. Rochester is built in a valley. Never would have guessed that the towers for my local stations would be located so far away. Not a good combination. I will have to get an outdoor antenna.

What can I say? I got it for free during an lg phone promotion. There are better tv's available but not at that price. Going to hook up a roku stick and watch this outside on my deck or in my workshop downstairs. If I was paying for this I would probably want more features, but that's just my personal preference.

Great phone

First off I'd like to say check lg's website. They have been running one type of battery/charger/memory promotion, for the last few months. It's a free bonus to purchasing this phone. This phone has a nice feel to it for such a large phone. I didn't load it up with lots of programs that need to check the web constantly like Facebook. Been checking that from Chrome browser. So the battery easily lasts more than a day. It has a great camera. Took some family pictures with multiple people. When I cropped them for individual people and printed them, they came out great. It also has two front facing cameras. One is wide angle making a selfie stick obsolete, if you're into that. It has a lot of features my old phone (htc1) didn't have. Knock to wake phone, and fingerprint sensor are my two favorites. I recommend searching YouTube for lg v10 videos. There are lots of them that really do a good job of showcasing the functions of this phone and introduce you to features you may never discover on your own. Probably easier to tell you what I'm not as pleased about than to explain all the pluses. These are not deal breakers for me and why I gave this 4 stars, but here goes. The fingerprint sensor is a little fussy you may have to make several attempts. Also the swipe to type picks a lot of wrong words for me. I may have been spoiled by HTC on that feature. Going to make a more precise effort to see if that improves. This is the best phone I've had in quite awhile. This is a premium product at a non premium price.

I've not activated this phone. I've bypassed that screen and am using this phone as a security camera. I can set these cheap phones around and can view what's going on from my daily use phone. Battery lasts a really long time for that use. There are two of these cheap lg phones. I like the other one slightly more as it has a few more features. This cheap phone makes me want to buy a nicer lg phone when the time comes.

This replaced a programmable thermostat I installed many years ago. It was slightly more difficult as my old one used a battery, this uses low voltage. It took longer to reach their help desk than it took for the person to tell me how to hook it up. Less than a minute. Probably took half an hour to install. Like being able to control things from my phone or just to check in for the status. Wish I had this months ago. The house was always too hot when we came home from our cabin. It would take hours to make things comfortable again. Now I change it before I come home and come home to a comfortable house. Liked it so much I went back and bought another two pack of sensors.

Fast setup

Bought this cause they were out of the one I wanted in store. It was $40 more expensive and had fewer ports. Only one USB and 4 Ethernet ports.Good side, probably the fastest setup I've ever done on a router. Just a suggestion if you are replacing an older netgear router and have netgear genie installed, uninstall that first. Gave me a small hiccup when I installed this one.

Haven't had this for very long, but I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. Video quality is excellent. This is a great step towards minimizing my dependence to cable. Thinking about getting a second roku for my vacation home. The downloadable app works well. The roku compliments my Google tv and is superior to the video portion of my Sony Blu Ray. I'd like to see if this would work with my slingbox eliminating the need for multiple units. If anyone knows it this is possible please leave a message in the comments. Thanks!

How good or bad is battery life? I see it has a power button and seems like a good feature.

Very good battery life. I leave mine on all the time and yet to replace the battery. I've had it for about a month and still running the original battery.

Hi. Is it cool to the touch? Thx.

Induction tops are supposed to be cool to the touch at all times.
Mostly it is. There is a small spot that stays warm for a shot period of time due to the hot pan reflecting some heat back to the glass. It cools down fast and I believe it's incapable of starting a fire or causing you to burn yourself.

Is this noisy? I have one unit (not the same brand) that has a pretty noisy fan that runs when it is on.

Yes the fan makes noise but I don't find it excessive. Wouldn't recommend if that would bother you. Guess I'm used to fan noise in cooking as on my stove I frequently use one to vent steam and greasy smells. So it doesn't bother me.

Sling Media Slingbox 350: Catch all your favorite TV shows, even when you're away from home. Slingbox 350 lets you watch live sports, breaking news and cable TV programming wherever you are — at home, around town or around the world.
 

Vacation home?

Could we use this instead of having a separate cable subscription at a cabin? Like using our home cable subscription at the cabin? Would we need a roku, apple tv or other for each tv at the cabin?
Yes and yes, but you would have to have INTERNET with WiFi or hardwired to the devices you mentioned at your cabin. You could use a smartphone with a huge data plan If you don't have internet there. (that's expensive unless you have unlimited data). One slingbox at home = one channel at your cabin. It's not like you can watch one program on your TV and the kids watch theirs on another. That in mind do you need a second roku if you all have to watch the same channel? If you don't want to hang out together or want to watch at different locations (bedroom?) any of the devices you mentioned would work. If you want to get different channels on the other tv you would have to have a second slingbox at home hooked up to a second cable box at home and a second slingbox account. Don't forget to leave your cable box(es) on when you leave home your slingbox mirrors what's on in that box. You don't have to leave your tv's on at home just the cable boxes. The slingbox 350 requires you connect via hardwired or have a wireless converter. You may want to consider an M1 slingbox (or two) if you need different channels as that one is wireless assuming you don't have access to cat 5 cable at both source cable boxes at home. Disclaimer I don't have two slingboxes at home just one, but know how they work so the part about two slingboxes isn't personally proven. Save your receipt in case you want to return one If that part doesn't work.

multiple tv's

Is it possible to hook up two TV's to one box?
I haven't tried this yet, but I'm thinking you might by channeling it through a slingbox. If you don't have a slingbox I'm thinking no. I've seen some videos on YouTube where you can view and share some Blu Ray boxes this way. I'm thinking sub the roku in place of the Blu Ray. Might be just cheaper to get a second unit though. My idea would require the second tv to be a smart tv or a computer hooked up to your second non smart tv. Sling box would let you view virtually anywhere you can get a WiFi signal. I use it to view my local tv when I stay at a hotel or at my camper up north or a spare tv at home that I don't have a cable box hooked to. Most people probably don't have all these items but I do so that's why I'm mentioning this. I'm guessing you want to go cheap so just buy a second one for the other tv.

Can I watch my shows somewhere other than home while someone at home watches something else?

If I am away from home can I still watch my tv channels or recorded shows if someone is at home watching something else? I have Direct TV.
It mirrors what's being watched so no. At least not with only one box.You would be able to watch what the other person is watching or they would have to watch what you're watching. A second DTV box on a different tv from the one they're watching would be needed.

Can I use this slingbox M1 with Charter Cable?

I have Charter Cable TV service. I used to use a Sling box SOLO a year or so ago before we moved and had to sign up with Charter TV because of the area we live now doesn't have Time Warner. My Sling Box Solo didn't connect anymore and I'm thinking of purchasing a different model. Which one should I get? and will it work with Charter?
I have a slingbox 350 and charter. it works great. 350 is hardwired old style, not wireless (wifi). It connects to the tv and cable box with 5 RCA type plugs. M1 is wireless. I would think it would work as long as both have hdmi ports or the five high def cables like the 350 has. Keep your receipt and return it if it doesn't work out.

Would I be able to stream to a Projector via Phone/Tablet/Laptop

If I hooked up the Slingbox to my Living Room Directv HD DVR, would I be able to stream through my cell phone/laptop/tablet to a projector in my backyard?
Possibly, is your laptop windows or Mac? If so It can. You would have to have hdmi or computer serial cable ports on both devices. Also it would have to be placed close enough to your WiFi for your computer to get a good signal. I sometimes get a poor service if the WiFi signal isn't strong enough. On a tablet or phone you would have to have a chrome cast dongle or roku box hooked up to your projector. Sling box charges an extra $15 each for the apps (phone and tablet) plus the cost of either appliance I mentioned. So it would cost you a minimum of an extra $30 plus the price of your slingbox plus the price of the dongle or roku box. Computer is free to use as long as it's a Windows or Mac.
