Great convenience, with some issues I can live with.

There are times when I need to clean something up quickly, and don't feel like dragging out the big vacuum.  This cordless vacuum handles those situations quite well.  For example, with a dog and cat in the house, we use this Electrolux to clean up clumps of white fur from the steps and the kitchen.

What I particularly like:

* Easy charging:  This comes with a charging base that lets me "dock" the vacuum when not in use.  It is very easy to dock and un-dock the vacuum.

* Easy switching between modes:  You can either use this as a "stick" vacuum (where you stand and push it along on the floor), or a handheld vacuum (for cleaning insidee drawers, for example).  I find it very easy to "pop out" the handheld portion from the stick, and then pop it back in when I am done. (but see below for one related complaint)

* Bagless:  I find that when I use a vacuum that has a bag, I tend to let the bag get overfilled, and don't realize it until it begins to smell bad.  With the clear bagless canister, I can easily see when it is time to empty the canister.  I believe you will find yourself emptying the canister much more often than you will need to empty a bag, but to me it is worth it.  (but see below for one related complaint)

OK, I do have a few minor issues, and they are my reasons for not giving five stars.  For my own personal needs, the pros outweigh the cons...

- Less powerful:  Probably due to the cordless nature of this vacuum, I find that it does not have the suction power of my corded vacuum.  It's not a deal breaker...if I have a bigger mess to clean up, I'll switch to my bigger vacuum.  This excels at smaller jobs.

- Wand tool is hard to get at:  As much as I like the ease of switching between stick and handless modes, there is one issue: The wand/brush tool is tucked behind the handheld part of the vacuum, and it is a bit awkward trying to get it out when I need it.  For me, it is more convenient to just leave the wand tool sitting out separately, than trying to put it back in its holder each time.

- Emptying the canister of dust is a bit awkward:  I like bagless format of the vacuum, but ran into an issue a couple times when emptying it.  There is a center piece connected to the filter that you are supposed to pull back and "snap" a few times, apparently to rid the filter of some surface-level dust.  Sometimes, when I do that, the lid of the canister pops off and I end up with some dust on the floor.  Now that i realize it is a problem, I have learned how to hold it so that it doesn't happen again, but it is something to watch for.

All in all, the cordless convenience and the easy conversion between stick and handheld has won me over.  If the next version could address a couple annoyances, it would be even better!

This is a convenient product with a few drawbacks that might make it not worth your time.

Pros:
- Suction cup didn't hold well until I wet it first, then did fine.  Held the pick between playing times so I didn't have to hunt it down
- During a song, great to have a backup pick handy so when/if you drop your pick, you don't have to stop playing and look for it
- Pick is easy to get in and out of holder
- Easy to use, lightweight, can be inconspicuously placed if wanted, and fits many different sizes of picks

Cons:
-Only holds one pick at a time  not much improvement from using my strings to hold it
- Have to remove it to fit into the guitar case

Overall, solid if you lose picks regularly and don't mind taking on/off when using a case.

I really love this little thing; but, I will also acknowledge that it has some drawbacks. First, I agree with many of the other reviewers about how inconvenient the exhaust port's placement is. It wasn't as much of a problem as I've seen most people complaining it is; for the most part, I've been able to use the vaccuum with no problem; but, when you are trying to get sand or dust out of a small space, that exhaust port WILL blow it all around. Also, the suction is weaker tha. I was hoping for. Again, hasn't been a huge problem; but, there are times where it has struggled. I'm not too crazy about having to hold the button down throughout use; but again, this isn't really a MAJOR issue. I primarily use this to clean up messes my kids leave in my car; and, for that purpose, this vacuum has been fantastic. It picks up sand, dirt, crumbs; and, any other small mess. It gets tricky when the debris you are trying to pick up gets bigger. It HAS, as I said, struggled to pick up coins, small pieces of plastic, etc.

All in all, it's a good little vaccuum. If you're looking for powerful suction, I'd keep looking; but, for anyone looking for a small car vacuum; or, just needing something to tidy up a bit, this vacuum is great.

It is a wonderful product.  I don't--and can't--read lengthy stuff on the computer, but this Kindle I can.  Cool name.

Having heartily recommended it, here are some drawbacks:  1) Don't spill liquids on it.  I did in a hotel in Birmingham, Alabama.  Coffee.  It took nearly three months for it to work again.  And I didn't expect it would, so I impulsively purchased another, angering my wife.

And Amazon wouldn't fix it, though when I purchased it they said they would fix any problem free of charge.  That policy had changed, I was told.

As a first generation product, it's also pricey.

2)  I live in northern New England where the Sprint network, the so-called Whispernet, is only available in islands like cities and universities.  So I'm limited in when and where I can download.

That's probably a good thing, considering how often I would be doing that.

3) Many books are not available to download.  That should improve.

So if you're on the fence, jump off and purchase one of these do-dads.  They're cool...and handy and fun.

Don't use it often but have it when I need it.

Love the Remote. However, there are some problems that I have noticed. 1. a Like of buttons for quick channel changing. 2. It's too easy to touch the screen and cause Remote to react accidently

I've been using it daily for the last 4 months.  I like it, but there's a couple of issues that I don't think they can resolve (maybe a future version?)

1. Higher DPI, I like a really sensitive mouse since I use 3 monitors and don't like picking up my mouse in general.  I want at least a 3000 DPI option.
2. I knock it over when switching from keyboard to mouse every once in a while, so maybe make it a bit more bottom heavy to keep it upright?
3. Looser scroll wheel.  I scroll a lot and want it to just go until I'm ready for it to stop.  Other mice have this.
4. Middle clicking is a bit awkward, maybe have a button option below the scroll wheel for this

Overall, I'm really happy with it, it feels really nice and natural to use.  The finish is not too slippery or grippy, the left/right click feels great, and I like the wired option.  It's a steal for the price, and I'm willing to pay more for the options I listed above if Anker continue to make new versions of this mouse.

Overall, I am quite happy with this.  The layout of the keyboard is good and allows me to type pretty close to the same speed as I do on a full-sized keyboard.  This was the most important single feature for me when I was looking for a keyboard/case since I do a bit of writing.  I have noticed three issues with mine that I think anyone interested in this case should know about.

Firstly, this thing does not hold a charge for months as claimed.  I have to charge mine maybe once a month and I probably only use the backlight for a few hours a month total.  I bought mine used, so it could simply be due to 'old age' for the battery.  This is of course only a minor problem; charging about once a month is fine.

A second issue is another minor one and I am not sure if it is really a problem with this case or my mini.  My iPad Mini forgets that the ZAGG is connected at least once a day, forcing me to pop it out of and back into the case or press the button on the side to connect them again.  I am so used to doing this by now that it has become almost unconscious.  It is not a problem for me.  It does not happen while in use; only after sitting a while unused.  Again, could be an issue with the mini.

The last issue, and again one which does not really bother me personally but which may be more of an issue for others, is that the very bottom edge of the screen is hard to get to with your finger.  I don't actually need to touch/swipe the very bottom edge often, so I really don't  care much about this.  On those rare occasions when I need to do so I just pop the mini out of the case do get the fine control at the very bottom edge that I need.

Overall, this is a case I would recommend highly.

I like it pretty much. It's convenient to have while traveling. The pros speak for themselves - when it's empty, it's small and easy to store in a purse or backpack. But there are a couple cons that kept me from giving it all stars. The siliconey material easily attracts dust and lint. The fastener comes undone easily. After I take a drink there always seems to be some liquid leftover in the spout that I have to tip back into my mouth. I kind of wish the top was more compact. The large plastic top takes up room, but maybe it's necessary to give the floppy material some structure?

Has more capabilities than I need, but what do need is great.

This thing vacuums up stuff very nicely, and there's lots of attachments to help it be useful in all sorts of vacuuming stuff situations.  I'm already amazed at how clean the filter stays, considering what I vacuum.  However, all the things it does well raise my expectations and make it's shortcomings seem even more frustrating.

1. The minor shortcoming:  I wouldn't have spent this kind of money on a vacuum cleaner if I wasn't interested in getting things clean.  The inside of the clear window has gotten dirty, and it wouldn't have been hard at all to make that thing twist-lock off, so that I could remove it and give it a swipe with a sponge or a damp towel when I'm done vacuuming.  Or it could be coated with some technology-indistinguishable-from-magic everything phobic surface from which the dust just falls
(which would probably improve cyclonic effect in many real-world circumstances).

2. The major shortcoming:  This is a cordless power tool.  There's a reason cordless power tools are sold with two batteries and an external charger.  That paradigm really works.  If Dyson doesn't want to sell their own swappable batteries, I have the following suggestion: make an interface to a Dyson adapter plate, and sell adapter plates for several brands that will allow compatible power tool batteries to connect to the vacuum.  It's amazingly frustrating when I'm 92% done and the vacuum just shuts down on low battery.  If, under those circumstances, I could put a 5.2 amp hour Metabo battery on it and finish out the project, I'd be much happier.  I know that battery would mess with the weight and the balance and the appearance 'n all, but when I'm 92% done and the battery dies, I don't care about those things nearly so much as i care about finishing up with my vacuuming so that I can mark it of my mental list until next time.

I really enjoy the capability of being able to program this to turn on and off automatically, it definitely helps save on electricity during the winter and I'm guessing also during the summer but haven't tested during that season yet.

Two minor things I wish were different with this unit. A - I wish it were easier to reprogram different days/times without going through the entire programming sequence. And B - I wish it came with a "profile" system so I could set it up for "work" or "working from home" during the week days, then on weekends I could set it to my "going out a lot" or "being a homebody" profile and wouldn't have to completely reprogram each time I wanted a small change in the schedule.

However, this is a very cheap unit and it does what it's designed to do, so I can't fault it too much. I suppose if I want those advanced features I'll have to shell out more cash to gain them.

I have a problem.  My problem is that I travel a lot and am always on my devices when I travel, so I'm not a stranger to the "beep of death" as the battery on my phone, tablet, or MP3 player signals that it is about to tap out.  One of the things I need then, is a way to quickly charge my devices whenever I get to an electrical oasis, aka, a wall outlet.  Because I travel so frequently, though, it is a hassle for me to bring a bunch of chargers, especially since most chargers have that large, unwieldy "brick" at the end that takes up a ton of space in my bag.

Enter the New Trent Dual USB Wall Charger.  It's basically JUST the "brick" that plugs into the wall, but has two slots for me to plug in my devices' USB cables, letting me charge two of them at a time.  Since the cables can be coiled up, the whole thing takes up half the space in my bag as having two separate chargers, which is great because I don't like traveling with large bags.

The charger is easy to use.  You plug in the USB ends of your cable to the back of the Wall charger and then plug the other end into your device.  I've been using mine with my Samsung Galaxy S4, my Asus Nexus 7 tablet (the 2012 version), and my Sony Walkman MP3 player (model NWZW273) and it's worked great.  It has charged my phone, tablet, and mp3 player as fast as their actual OEM chargers, which is about an hour for my phone and tablet and about 8 minutes for my MP3 player.

With my business travel, having something like this is a huge help.  If I get a half hour at my office between meetings, I can plug in two devices at a time instead of alternating time on the plug.  With two plugs to an outlet, that means all three of my devices get charged at once, saving me time and the inconvenience of a dead battery when I need to be available to my employees or partners.

Even during my off-work, lower-pressure hours, the charger has been convenient because I've been able to save outlets on my wall (which are shared with my laptop, hard drives, lamps, tv, etc.) by consolidating two devices right into the one charger.  And at this price, I've also recently ordered one for my brother and another for my mother, who both have multiple devices that they use and need to charge.

I'd recommend this to anyone who values space - be it storage space with them when they travel (like me) or just wants to condense down the number of wall outlets they use so they don't need to have a thousand power strips around their house (also like me) - so from road warriors to soccer moms, this thing just simplifies charging and is a no-brainer.

The only downside I found to it is that, because of its design, with the plug protruding from the center of the brick, the top end of it takes up some of the space on the outlet above and below it, so you can't plug two of these things into one outlet comfortably.  Most chargers similarly take up a lot of space, so I understand that it's par for the course, but if the charger were engineered so that the prongs were near the top or the bottom of the device, you'd only lose space around one other outlet area.  Something with a thinner plug, like a lamp, can still be plugged in above or below, but I couldn't plug my modestly-sized laptop power cord in while using the wall charger.

I didn't give it 5 stars only because of the design caveat where it takes up an extra space on the other outlets.  The product is a solid performer and great to have, but because it's meant to save outlet space, I'd love to see it designed to allow other chargers to be plugged in around it.

I really like this hard drive. It's portable and hot-swappable, so I can use it on multiple machines in my house. I've always heard that external hard drives are unstable, but this one has not given me any problems yet (just make sure you turn it off before you unplug it from the system). I only have a few (slight) problems with this hard drive: 1) the separate power adapter can be a bit of a pain, expecially when you're nowhere near an extra outlet, and 2) the USB port is a bit wobbly. I'm always afraid I'm going to break it right off whenever I plug a cord in. You just have to learn to be delicate with it when the cord is plugged in, I guess. Those are the only problems I've encountered, though. Now I just need to figure out what I'm going to fill this thing up with.

As expected, but much more convenient than planned on being.

I have had this coffeemaker for almost a year now, and I still like it better than any other I've ever had.  The convenience far outweighs the few problems that it has.  Just like any other maker, it takes a few pots to figure out the right amount of coffee grounds to use for your own taste.  I use plain old drip grind coffee, and I really like the taste this brewer gives.  I also use spring water so that I don't have that tap water taste to my coffee.

As for things to be careful of, most people have mentioned the manual, which leaves out some important details. In addition:
- The manual doesn't tell what size basket filter to use, which is 3 inch size, readily available in most stores, at least around here.
- I found that mine leaks for a couple reasons, one if I am not careful pouring in the water, two if I jostle it around as I'm sliding it back on the counter, or three if I overfill it even a little bit.  There is an overflow hole in the rear of the unit, and it allows water to come out if you put too much in.  As for the little arm, they have put in a small guide that makes sure it's over the basket when you close the lid.
- I cannot find replacement water filters for this thing anywhere
- It is very lightweight, and if you don't have it up against the wall, or hold it with your hand, it will slide as you push your cup in to get your coffee
- The unit is rather tall, and even though it fits fine on the counter under the upper cabinets, I have to pull it out in order to lift the lid, which is annoying.

All in all, I have enjoyed the convenience of this coffeemaker, and I would get it again.

Overall, I'm very happy with the phone.

PROs:
*Display is easy to read
*There is a directory that is easy to use and holds a lot of numbers, so I don't end up using "speed dial" at all
CONs:
*The biggest problem I've had is difficulty loading the directory.  I find the interface confusing and inconsistent, so I ended up using the manual a lot initially.  I would ding this product more for this problem, but now that my directory is set up, I don't have to deal with it much any more.
*It displays the caller id that comes in on a call, even when I have the number in my directory, so rather than seeing my directory name, like "Lizzie", for example, I'll see "Smith L" which is not as helpful
