Most Favorable Review

Fast and reliable

Samsung 64GB EVO microSDXC UHS-I/U1 Class 10 Memory Card with Adapter, Speed Up to 48MB/s (MB-MP64DA/AM) [Old Speed]
Samsung 64GB EVO microSDXC UHS-I/U1 Class 10 Memory Card with Adapter, Speed Up to 48MB/s (MB-MP64DA/AM) [Old Speed]

Pros: I bought this for a Samsung Galaxy Tab S. This is fast and reliable. The write speed is almost as fast as device storage when taking pictures, and no errors.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I have come to find that Samsung is about the most reliable company for my tech. I have Samsung TVs, tablets, SSD drives, MicroSD cards and phones. Not a single one of these has failed me yet.

Most Critical Review

Quick and dirty baby cam

D-Link DCS-932L/2Q Cloud Wireless IP Camera, 640x480 Resolution, Night Vision, Mydlink Enabled (2 PACK)
D-Link DCS-932L/2Q Cloud Wireless IP Camera, 640x480 Resolution, Night Vision, Mydlink Enabled (2 PACK)

Pros: Decent picture and audio. Night vision is ok.

Cons: The audio can get static at times. The D-Link cloud service is not very good. I use an alternate viewer, but it doesn't do everything the D-Link cloud service does.

Overall Review: This is all in all a decent IP camera for the price. We will continue to use this as a baby monitor, but it is not good for much else.

Great cables

GearIT GI-35MM-BK-25FT 25 ft. 3.5mm Aux Audio Stereo Cable Male to Male
GearIT GI-35MM-BK-25FT 25 ft. 3.5mm Aux Audio Stereo Cable Male to Male

Pros: 25 feet of audio cable. Can't hear any loss of signal.

Cons: none

Overall Review: none

Long USB cables

Nippon Labs Black 15 ft. USB cable A/Male to A/Female extension 15ft USB cable Model USB-15-MF-BK 15 feet
Nippon Labs Black 15 ft. USB cable A/Male to A/Female extension 15ft USB cable Model USB-15-MF-BK 15 feet

Pros: 15 feet of USB room to move about or charge from a far away plug. I bought these for when we travel and need to charge up our devices. We have about 5 USB devices to charge up overnight.

Cons: These cables will not charge all of our devices if using a 1 amp port. I can use the 1 amp port directly and all is good. I am ok with that, but it is annoying when the ports are not labeled on the USB outlet I use.

Overall Review: No show stoppers and I still use these when travelling. Just need to be aware of where they are plugged in for charging.

Great sound

GOgroove BassPULSE Computer Speaker System with Blue LED Glow Lights & Powered Subwoofer - Works with PC, Apple MAC, ASUS, Acer, Alienware, CybertronPC, Dell, HP & More Computers

Pros: This produces some awesome bass and sound. Cuz it's all about the bass!! haha. Anyway, the light effects are nice and can be turned off if annoyed by that sort of thing.

Cons: No remote. Knew that going in, and not worth taking an egg off.

Overall Review: none

Neat idea

Etekcity 3 Pack Wireless Remote Control Outlet Switches with 100ft Range – Includes Battery
Etekcity 3 Pack Wireless Remote Control Outlet Switches with 100ft Range – Includes Battery

Pros: Really neat idea. I use one of these to turn a glue gun off and on.

Cons: There is only the one remote, so using this for multiple rooms is annoying. The way the remote is setup is also kind of annoying. Plug 1 has ON above OFF. Plugs 2 and 3 have ON to left of OFF. Not a show stopper, but some design thought would have prevented that.

Overall Review: All in all I do like the idea and am trying to find other uses like a lamp or something in the same room. I could see this being way more beneficial in a living room or kitchen maybe,
