Most Favorable Review

Works for me

StarTech.com PYO1LP4SATA 6 in. 6in LP4 to LP4 SATA Power Y Cable Adapter
StarTech.com PYO1LP4SATA 6 in. 6in LP4 to LP4 SATA Power Y Cable Adapter

Pros: I bought this to add an SSD to my Alienware X51 R2. I plugged it in and connected to the existing platter drive and my added SSD. I've used it every day for about 5 months without problems.

Cons: None.

Most Critical Review

Cheap in more ways than one

Rosewill 2 x 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Multimedia Stereo Headset - RH-001
Rosewill 2 x 3.5mm Connector Circumaural Multimedia Stereo Headset - RH-001

Pros: Inexpensive.

Cons: I bought a bunch of these for the kids to play online games with their friends. They wear them out quickly - anywhere from a week or two to a couple of months. They are inexpensive, but not the best quality.

Overall Review: I haven't tried them myself, so I can't speak to the quality of the sound. They may last longer with an adult who takes better care of them.

Great bulbs

SunSun Lighting A19 LED Light Bulb / E26 Base / 6.5W / 40W Replace / 450 Lumen / Dimmable / Energy Star / UL / 3000K / Soft White
SunSun Lighting A19 LED Light Bulb / E26 Base / 6.5W / 40W Replace / 450 Lumen / Dimmable / Energy Star / UL / 3000K / Soft White

Pros: These are much brighter than the 40w CFLs they replaced. The 3K white light is great - not yellow, not blue, just white. My wife was skeptical, but she has fallen in love with them. The come on instantly and at full strength.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I highly recommend these bulbs.

Great bulbs

SunSun Lighting A19 Non-Dimmable LED Light Bulb / E26 Base / 6.5W / 40W Replace / 450 Lumen / UL / 3000K / Soft White
SunSun Lighting A19 Non-Dimmable LED Light Bulb / E26 Base / 6.5W / 40W Replace / 450 Lumen / UL / 3000K / Soft White

Pros: I really like the 3K lights - not yellow, but not blue. I replaced 40w CFLs with these and there's a noticeable difference in how much brighter these are. Light dispersion is great. They do not get hot and do not need a warm up period like CFLs.

Cons: There is a half second delay before the bulb comes on. The dimmable version doesn't have this delay.

Overall Review: I give these bulbs 4.5 stars due to the delay. But I really like these bulbs.

Good for the price

Pros: I bought this as an extender. My cable company's Ubee modem wireless range drops off in certain parts of the house. I plugged this in and configured it within minutes. It's been working fine ever since. I haven't had to reboot it yet.

Cons: The range doesn't seem as good as the cable modem, which is ok for me, since this is acting as an extender. The signal drops off around 25 ft. It shows up fine, but the connection is slow. I guess I expected better range from an Asus product.

Overall Review: It's a good, solid modem and I'd recommend it to a friend.
