techBUZZ: Jaswig Standing Desk
Do you work long hours at your computer? Do you work from home? Are you SICK of sitting down all the time while you work? If so, you have got to get yourself one of these standing desks. I love my standing desk and use it daily. TOP FEATURE: ALL WOOD STYLE - I've been shopping for a standing desk for quite a while, so when I saw this JASWIG standing desk, I decided to give it a try. Made entirely of wood (except for the hardware, of course), this desk is sturdy and low tech. This desk is a great addition to my office. It allows me to stand up frequently, which makes a big difference in the comfort level of my work days.

techBUZZ: TP-Link AC1200 Wi-Fi Range Extender
TOP FEATURE: GOOD RANGE - I placed the extender inside our home near and outer wall in order to provide wifi access to our outdoor kitchen and patio area, which sits 20 feet away from the outlet that I plugged the extender into. The TP-Link AC1200 extender works like a charm to provide myself and my guests with access to our wifi network from the comfort of out outdoor entertaining area.

techBUZZ: Winix NK100 Tower Air Cleaner
TOP FEATURE: FOUR STAGE FILTER - The four-stage filter filters out 99.97% of bacteria, pet dander, mold spores, smoke, pollen, dust, household odors and even chemical vapors! TOP FEATURE: AIR QUALITY SENSOR - It has an auto function, which monitors the quality of the air and decreases or increases the fan speed accordingly. How cool is that? You can just set it on auto and forget about it! There is even LED light to indicate the quality of your air visually (green is good, amber is fair, red is poor).

beautifulBUZZ: Enbrighten Café LED String Lights, 12-Foot Strand![]() TOP FEATURE: GORGEOUS - These Enbrighten Café LED String Lights deserve ten stars. These are gorgeous outdoor lights. They look fantastic in our outdoor kitchen. TOP FEATURE: STURDY - The acrylic bulbs are sturdy and seem virtually unbreakable with normal use. I dropped the string while I was hanging it and the bulbs were unharmed. TOP FEATURE: GOOD LIGHTING - The string of lights puts out a nice amount of light- not too bright and not too dim. They provide a nice soft glow to the outdoor environment. TOP FEATURE: QUALITY - The lights are made with quality materials, including heavy-duty outdoor wiring. Each light has a small tab attached for hanging, making it easy to get them to stay just where you want them. Separate strings can be joined together and the end plug has an attached cover to keep moisture and debris out when not in use. Plus, they're LEDs so they do not use much electricity and they NEVER get hot to the touch. We will definitely be buying more of these as we finish outfitting our outdoor kitchen.
techBUZZ - BLU VIVO 5 Smartphone 4G![]() TOP FEATURE: GORGEOUS - This is a beautiful smartphone, and I am very disappointed that it does not work with the Verizon cell service in my area. Still, even without cell service, this smartphone has lots of great features. It works great as an internet-only device: surfing, music, photos, Google account, audio books, ebooks, the works... TOP FEATURE: LOADED - Vivo 5 is loaded with great features: GORGEOUS 5.5 LED HD display, Octa Core 1.3 GHz 64-bit processor, 13 MP main camera, 5 MP selfie camera, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB internal memory. The display really IS gorgeous. The colors are bright and vivid and really pop! And thanks to the 64-bit processor, the phone surfs wi-fi very fast and has no problems with streaming video or music. Vivo 5 came loaded with Android 5.1 Lollipop OS, which offers a slick, fast interface and (of course) plenty of great apps to download. Really, there's nothing I don't love about this phone! Highly recommended (especially if you DON"T have Verizon cell service).
