Great Drive

Pros: Fast.
Cons: Heat. The slide in/out of the plug is a bit awkward, but it work when you get the hang of it.
Overall Review: The drive is fast. I never did a speed test on it, but I installed linux mint 18.2 on it and it works almost like it does on my HD. I wanted to test Linux 18.2 with my real hardware to see how it performed. It wasn't working well in a virtual machine so this was a great way to test without overwriting my current copy of 17.3. Other than the heat, I think it's great.
Didn't work as expected

Pros: Easy to plug in. That's about it.
Cons: This is my first attempt at adding another router or extension to my system. When set up my main router SSID was like XX12345 and this produced a 2nd network SSID XX12345.2 This wasn't what I wanted, I wanted the same SSID. But as I said, I'm new at this and this error is on me.
Overall Review: The unit worked for the few days I tried it, but I just didn't do as I wanted. I'll keep it, I may eventually find a use for it.
High speed drive

Pros: I bought this to replace a 128G SATA m2 drive. The difference measured dramatically better. I wish I had kept the crystal disk mark info.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: I didn't take time to resolve the issue when Acronis would not seem to allow me to reload my full backup. Since I went from a SATA to Nvme and UUIDs of all the partitions etc changed, now that I did a full reload of Windows and Linux I'm glad I did. Linux uses UUID's of partitions and that would have been a nightmare to resolved (at least for me). I had my system reloaded in about 2 hours. It was fun to watch things load so fast.
Great Headphones

Pros: They sound great. To me, they have good tonal quality.
Cons: They are over the ear but a bit (just a bit) small for me. Being that this is my first over the ear headphones, I'm not sure if that's typical. But they're better than on the ear. They also are a bit tight. Along with the above info, I have a feeling they are for a small head. I'm 6'1" 220lbs. So take that as a gauge.
Overall Review: For a little as I use them they're great. I pulled the head band and they are not a tight now solving one problem and I just have to wiggle the ear in to the earpiece a bit. Overall I can watch my video's with the sound up well on Facebook and not bother others in the room.
Great

Pros: The best idea. I was plugging in tp-link wi-fi smart plugs and they are rather large taking up 3 plugs on a strip. This allowed me to plug 2 smart plugs into one outlet and regain more outlets on the strip.
Cons: none
Overall Review: Great
Great

Pros: Moves that large brick off the outlet so you free up an outlet. I had a 6 outlet plug adapter, 2 rows of 3 plugs and with other things like the google mini round plug etc etc, I ran out of outlets with one more big brick. This fixed it all
Cons: None
Overall Review: I'd buy more and did.

No issues with order or product
Not sure how to rate memory. Not techie to know more than "it works", and "it got here quickly". Memory for a Dell laptop took way too much time to open the laptop (have to remove keyboard and whole back of laptop) than the 1 minute to put the chip in. I'm always fearful of opening and putting in new parts, but this went great. Now I have 16G and can run a virtual machine with 8G on host and guest. The main reason for the upgrade.
