    The soundbar worked good for two weeks then started shutting off and back on by itself. I spoke with Bose Tech support two times to try to solve the issue. When it couldn’t be resolved I was two days out of the return policy at Best Buy. I had to ship it back to Bose. We’ll be waiting a while to get it back…..

    This is our 2nd beverage fridge like this. We liked the first Insignia so much we bought two to put right next to each other in a little bar area. This works very well and looks really nice!

    We bought the camera with solar option to put on our dock so we could see our boat. Love it! Really impressed with how well it picks up our internet. No issues at all after 2 months.

    The Bose is a good buy for the money but the LG sy9 I purchased a year and a half back is a piece of crap which total tech which I am a member will not cover for repair because I didn’t purchase a protection policy in addition to the 199.00 fee for total tech which is now included with total tech. Avery unsatisfactory customer accommodating and left with a 700 dollar piece of crap

    I"m 74, and I can hear it better than my tv since it has voice enhancement, It has decent surround using hdmi. But like many Bose products it"s a little over priced at $250.
