I have only had this laptop since May 16, 2016.  It shut down suddenly today, 9/25/2016.  In 18 years as an IT professional, I have never had a laptop last me for less that three years.  Most run much longer, and I rarely shut them down.

I run at least five computers in the house at any given time. I am really disappointed.

After speaking to Kuryakyn, it was determined that I received a defective product. The manufacturer advised me what to do to confirm my suspicions and advised me to return the product. It went out today and the new product is on its way.

I purchased it a few months ago, it worked for a couple of months and then became corrupted. I formatted it, used it for a few weeks, it became corrupted again. I attempted to format it yet again, and now my PC can't format it. The item is defective, I bought another one from a competitor for slightly more money. Don't buy this one, defective product.

My connector is defective. One side allows the cable to lock in place but the other side doesn't lock in place. It took me 15 minutes to troubleshoot and discover this problem...it's a useless product and quality control is lacking. I'd like to return it for one that works OR get a 20'
Ethernet cable.

This Timex Mid-Size T5G971 Personal Trainer Heart Rate Monitor is a defective product, and I don't know why Amazon sold this heart rate monitor.  I bought this on December 5, 2015 as a Christmas gift for my husband.  From Christmas to the present, this heart rate monitor has continually malfunctioned.  The display will freeze, or just count higher in increments of 1, or stop monitoring and return to displaying the current time.  My husband has set and reset this heart rate monitor, but the result is the same each day.  My husband contacted Timex and was told to replace the batteries in the transmitter device that fits around his chest.  The same problems occurred.  My husband then contacted Timex again and was told that they are having many calls regarding this heart rate monitor.  This device should not be sold by Amazon because it sullies your good reputation.  I was going to return this Timex Heart Rate Monitor for a refund, but I was told the window for returns had closed, even though it carries a 1 year warranty.
Amazon, I hope this is not the beginning of a trend of you selling poorly manufactured products with short lifetimes, and thereby ruining your good reputation.

This is not a quality product.  There is a manufacturer known defect with the "low battery".  I want to return this item.  I am very dissatisfied with the product and the response I received from the manufacturer.  I will not recommend this product to anyone.

My remodel was delayed, just got this installed and the handheld portion does not work.  The button to turn on and off the handheld is defective.  I am very frustrated that I cannot return this defective unit as my 'return window is closed!'  I had to purchase a replacement, substandard, a lot of plastic, model at Home Depot because  I needed it the same day.  I would like to return this.  It wasn't cheap!

I am revising my review of this product based on defective product.  Referring to my first purchase below, it is working fine.  The second one was defective out of the box, and Amazon replaced it.  The replacement worked out of the box, but died a week later.  Now apparently I cannot return it for replacement because it is not available from Amazon, but only from other dealers.  Nor can I get a refund, because I don't have the original packaging.  If I could get a replacement, it would come with original packaging to send the defective unit back, but .....

This nice little remote is a very risky purchase in my opinion.

--original review below ---

I have purchased two of these, and they are working very well for my purposes.  I have not tried to use the built-in codes, only the learning features to consolidate a handful of remotes into one in a home theater setup.

From a user perspective, it is great - it lights up when you just move it a little, and goes completely dark to save batteries when not in use.

I had some problems to solve however -

One was that the instructions for teaching codes are somewhat confusing.  In one instruction it clearly says "press and hold (two buttons) until a mode light blinks".  This is correct - you must press and hold both buttons at the same time.  However, in another instruction it says "press the mode key and the remote key to be programmed..."  In this case you may not understand that these are not to be held at the same time.  You press the mode key, release it, and then press the key to be programmed and hold it while sending the teaching signal.

Elsewhere it says "repeat steps 2 through 5 as often as desired..." to program additional keys.  Fact is, you repeat only steps 4-5.

The other problem I had to solve was that the second remote I ordered arrived as expected, but did not work at all.  Batteries were good, but the lights only flashed intermittently and no functions worked.  After I received a replacement from Amazon I realized that the defective unit was used.  The batteries were loose in the packaging, while the new one had them wrapped in plastic;  also there was peel-off protective material on the user panel on the new one, but the defective unit did not have that.  I suspect that there had been a mix-up between a defective return and new inventory.

Amazon was great about a quick and easy return process however.  No cost to me at all, just a few days of delay in getting a working unit.
