Inexpensive but not easy for beginners
Update- 7/17/19- one star added, it’s a sturdy unit and I haven’t had any problems. Battery lasts a long time between charges. If you have questions don’t bother posting them here. You won’t likely get help other than, “get a book and learn how to do it”. Anyone asking a novice question is assumed to be not licensed.This is a very complicated piece of equipment. I’m a complete newbie and assumed the “chirp” program would be easy to use. IT IS NOT! Do not assume it is as easy as input a number and you can listen, there is a bunch of other things that need to be set. The device itself seems good and the battery lasts a long time. Bottom line- if you know what you’re doing-it’s great. If you you’re not into ham radio, be prepared to work! It’s worth the price.

TOUGH TO HANDLE- BUT WORTH IT!
I do a tremendous amount of photography and am an old Leica user. It takes a lot to get me excited. When this digicam came down in price- I bought it. I have been using m43 and have a great deal invested in that size. Because of the weight- I have rarely used my Canon DSLR. I also do street photography so I need a fast camera. The EOS M is NOT a fast camera. The imaging, however, is spectacular. Notwithstanding the latest articles in magazines and on line, APS C is much better than m43.I use it with an optical v/f I also bought on Amazon. I shoot black and white and although the camera's color rendition is excellent, the black and white is so spectacular that I went specifically to this site to crow about it. I am waiting now with bated breath until a new EOS M is released with an integral EVF. If you get used to the focus lag... shoot with "continuous" your results, like mine will be worth the trouble.

Great, sharp sound.
Loved the sound of this speaker. Had a problem with the charge cord though. Had to purchase another one. No big deal. Still worth the price.

Worth every penny
Comes with the magnet! This moves in so many ways and had so many options of how I want to position my phone. I love it! The only thing is sometimes when I want to elevate my phone if it's not positioned in the exact balanced placement for my phone it falls over. This something I can resolve with an easy adjustment and I still love, love, love it

Favorite old actors doing a great job!
Never saw this when it was new - very enjoyable. Great suspense and great acting (of course). Well worth your time to view this one!

Simple, and worth the money
Use this to keep an eye on a parent with dementia. Serves the purpose.

Well worth the money
Didn't want a huge circle light, so I purchased this one hoping it would do the trick. It works great and was very economical.

Perfect lighting worth it
Honestly love this light, it stands taller than I thought it would and it was cheaper than any light I've ever seen. It works extremely well for my makeup lives and I highly recommend it

Worth every penny
Ok let me start by saying I’m a believer. I love love love these light bulbs and will never go back. I downloaded the so to my phone, attached them to Alexa and BAMM they work just as stated. I can change the color only through my phone and if you turn the light switch off it’ll take the light bulbs offline. I’m giving four stars only because mine did not come with a remote, but honestly with the app on my phone and my echo dot and kindles I don’t need it. I placed one on my children’s room and their fascinated with the color strobe features. Oh I’m sorry did I mention these have 20 different programmed color features plus cool and warm light. As you can see I’m definitely a fan. Can’t wait to see how long they actually last. Worth every penny.
