Good Product

Logitech Certified Refurbished K480 (920-006342) Bluetooth Multi-Device Keyboard for Computers and Android / IOS Tablets and Smartphones
Logitech Certified Refurbished K480 (920-006342) Bluetooth Multi-Device Keyboard for Computers and Android / IOS Tablets and Smartphones

Pros: Cosmetically Perfect Great Connectivity Fits my Asus VivoTab 8 M81C‑B1‑MSBK Signature Edition perfectly. Pairs with my Sharp 60" 4k Android TV perfectly. Kodi is now much faster to search because of this product.

Cons: A little "creaky" meaning there is some flex in the build. Not a deal breaker by any means.

Overall Review: If you are reading this, buy it.

Most Critical Review

Great when it worked. Horrible Lenovo service repair process!!!

Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 700 80QL000CUS Tablet Intel Core M7 6Y75 (1.20 GHz) 8 GB LPDDR3 Memory 256 GB SSD Intel HD Graphics 515 12.0" IPS 2160 x 1440 Touchscreen 5 MP Webcam Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit

Pros: Stylish and Super Fast/Responsive. Great display and designed very well. Cost vs Surface is excellent.

Cons: Failed after only 10-12 uses and was sent into Lenovo service repair which is my main reason to write this review as I don't usually give negative reviews of products.

Overall Review: My main complaint is with Lenovo repair process. They received my laptop on 1/23 and on 1/31 stated they didn't have the part. Then it went to another service center on 2/8 and again they didn't have the part. I asked what part it was on 2/16 and they told me it was the entire screen. It is now 2/21 and I still don't have an update, it just states allow 38-40 business days. Business days!!!! Lenovo had it for almost a month and now they are asking for another 2 months!! Ridiculous. I have always bought Asus and I am now regretting not going with a MS Surface and should have spent the extra money for a proven product.

Trust in Brand

Fagor 976010395 LUX MAX Multi-Cooker, 8 Quart, Silver
Fagor 976010395 LUX MAX Multi-Cooker, 8 Quart, Silver

Pros: This Fagor product seems to be heavier than the Instapot brand. Not sure if that means better quality materials. This thing is a beast. From making carnitas to turkey legs. Corn on the cob to butternut squash in minutes. I have not been let down using this for over 3 months. Chili season has arrived....bye bye Slow Cooker.

Cons: It doesn't fold up.

Overall Review: Due to a few reviews on some websites stating that the circuit board burns out, I added the Square Trade insurance. At around $55 for an 8 quart, even if this lasts 3 years I would be satisfied.

Great Sound and Build

TaoTronics Bluetooth Sports Headphones in-ear Earbuds - TT-BH12L Black

Pros: Sound Quality Battery Life Cost Comfortable Great for working out in a high mobility style (Running etc..)

Cons: Not auto off. This isn't a deal breaker but if you forget to turn them off they will drain battery.

Overall Review: I would highly recommend to anyone that is looking for headset to workout with that won't kill your budget.

Great Product. Don't Listen to the HATERS!

Microsoft Touch Mouse 3KJ-00001 Black Touch Scroll USB RF Wireless BlueTrack
Microsoft Touch Mouse 3KJ-00001 Black Touch Scroll USB RF Wireless BlueTrack

Pros: Solid build for a desktop mouse. Probably not the best portable mouse option out there. You can adjust the scroll speed which was the only thing you need to get used to performing. As other reviews stated to right click you must make sure you are not touching mouse with your pointer finger. Great to use as I have fairly large hands, my wife was indifferent but she was still a fan. Best price in the world on Newegg at $16.95 plus free shipping.

Cons: Needs the USB extender placed behind monitor as it was a little laggy connected straight to tower.

Overall Review: We will see how battery life goes.....

Best PC Yet

ASUS Desktop PC CM1745-US006S AMD A10-5700 8GB DDR3 1TB HDD AMD Radeon HD 7660D Windows 8
ASUS Desktop PC CM1745-US006S AMD A10-5700 8GB DDR3 1TB HDD AMD Radeon HD 7660D Windows 8

Pros: Super Cheap PC I bought in October 2013. Looking to upgrade because I love to try new MS products. Yes there are a bunch of us out there. Windows 8 took about 10 minutes to get used to, that is it. Do I miss a start menu, answer No. I have used pretty much all MS OSs and I have to say that Windows 7 and 8 have been the easiest to work with out of the box. I was also a Vista fan because of the Media Center capabilities, and mine had the hardware to run it. Long story short don't believe all the media anti hype about W8. With the addition of 8.1 and 8.1 update there should be no haters left. Love an MS PC because I like to choose what hardware to upgrade.

Cons: UEFI BIOS takes some getting used to.
