Tested: G20's Speed & WiFi 6 – A Surprising Combo Deal for ISPs

We were intrigued by the ARRIS (G20) Combo’s promise of fast speeds and WiFi 6 in one device. Approved for major ISPs like Comcast Xfinity, Cox, and Spectrum, we set up the G20 to test its 1.0 Gbps max speed and upload-optimized performance. The setup was straightforward, and our initial speeds exceeded expectations, with stable multi-gigabit WiFi coverage throughout our home. The WiFi 6 AX3000 chipset delivered a noticeable difference in speed and responsiveness, even with multiple devices connected. What impressed us most was the value—combining a cable modem and router into one affordable unit. While it may not be the top-tier model, the G20 offers excellent performance for its price, making it a surprising gem for users tied to ISP partnerships. We’d recommend it for anyone seeking a reliable and fast combo solution.

Quick Bake Showdown: Potato Rods vs. Bag... Perfect Spuds Seasonal Style

Quick Bake Showdown: Potato Rods vs. Bag... Perfect Spuds Seasonal Style

In our Quick Bake Showdown, we were intrigued to test the Potato Baking Rods and Microwave Potato Cooker Bag Set—a mismatched pair of spud-prep tools promising quick and uniform results. First, we tried the 4pongs Spud Spikes. Pushing them into potatoes felt like a game of culinary Jenga, but the even heat distribution on the stovetop was remarkable, reducing our favorite spuds to fluffy perfection in just under an hour. Next, we zapped a few in the microwave potato cooker bag, which simplified cleanup but yielded slightly转发ous interiors. Combining elements of both methods, we found the spikes alone offered the best texture and flavor, while the bag provided unmatched convenience for leftovers. For us, seasonally perfect potatoes are possible, but the spikes won the day.

Scole Steak Knives: German Steel vs serrated twist… Acing your dinner table test

We were intrigued by the blend of German precision and sharp serration in the SCOLE® Steak Knives set. Each of the six 4.5-inch knives feels well-balanced, with a confident weight that glides through cooked meat. The German stainless steel ensures longevity, while the serrated edge tackles tough crusts effortlessly. The blue color adds a touch of modern elegance to any dinner table, and the included gift box lends itself to gifting with pride.

Whether searing a strip steak or slicing a roast, these SCOLE® knives deliver precision that matches their aesthetic appeal.

We recently tested the Star Wars Episode VI Return of the Jedi Authentic 35mm FilmCells Special Edition Display (7x5, Black), and it didn’t disappoint. The packaging alone is premium—solid black with a subtle, tactile emboss of the film’s logo. Inside, the cells are beautifully presented, each one suspended in 3D for dramatic effect.

It’s a fantastic centerpiece for any Jedi-flip enthusiast, balancing authenticity with practicality.

*Hypoallergenic Tape Showdown: Comfort vs Micropore - Tested Pain-Free!

We recently tested the Micropore Tape, Comfort Tape (30 Pack), eager to see how its hypoallergenic, latex-free claims stacked up against Micropore standards. The 1-inch adhesive cotton tape excelled in comfort—its gentle touch barely registered on skin, a definite plus after smearing试 pastes. Removal? A breeze; we barely felt the adhesive lift, unlike some tapes that left behind lint or residue. The pack size was a convenient bonus, and its versatility for men and women was refreshing.

"Greenworks Mower Versus Compared: Self-Propelled Tested...Best Value? (Lawn Care)"

We were intrigued by the Greenworks 80V self-propelled mower, especially with its 75+ compatible tools and included battery/charger. Upon testing, we found the performance surprisingly smooth, with the brushless motor providing consistent power even on hilly terrain. The 21-inch deck handled medium-thick grass well, though we noted occasional clogging if not kept in optimal tall grass conditions. The 4.0Ah battery drained faster than expected for a full mow but charged quickly with the 60-minute rapid charger. We appreciated the intuitive safety features and comfortable handle. While not the most powerful mower we’ve tested, its versatility and affordable price point make it appealing. For attached properties, the value proposition is strong, offering a capable, no-cord option without sacrificing performance.

We recently compared The Upside on both DVD and Blu-ray, eager to see how the sharpened image would elevate our viewing pleasure. While the Blu-ray certainly delivers a crisper picture, with clearer textures and deeper colors, the DVD remains surprisingly enjoyable—especially given the film’s warm, cinematic style. We found ourselves sticking with the DVD for its convenience, though the Blu-ray’s extra features like commentary and behind-the-scenes content gave it a subtle edge. Ultimately, The Upside’s humor and heart shine through in either format, proving that clarity isn’t always the deciding factor.
