Good sound, but overall disappointing
1 of 2 found this helpful Sound quality, for both wearer and person on the other end, is the one strong point of this device. It is also comfortable to wear and a close fit, if you use only the small earpiece cover, without the hook. It can, however, fall out, especially while walking around.
The problem is pairing. While the device is multi-point, seamlessly pairs with my iPhone 6 and automatically connects, I must manually connect with my other phone (a 'dumb' Pantech),
I find that when out of the house, I use my Plantronics M165.

Great value for price paid
I was looking for a backup/emergency phone $5/month phone on an alternate network (T-Mobile). My other phones are ATT. This fit the bill and was a great value for the price paid.
Haven't had it long enough of used enough to evaluate battery life.

Does only one thing: Makes a great pot of coffee!
After three coffee makers in four years, I believe I've found practical perfection!
I've gone from the highly-rated, and highly priced, Moccamaster, which made near perfect coffee, to a multi-featured model from Cuisinart, which made decent coffee. I decided to go back to basics, and economics.
That led me to the Bonavita, which like the expensive import, does what I want it to do and nothing else: deliver very tasty coffee.
The difference between the three makers I've referenced is not great. I likely would grade them from 87 for the Cuisinart, to 97 for the Technivorm.
The Bonavita gets a 95. Good enough for me!
Other positives: Very compact. Solid construction. Easy to fill reservoir (unlike the awkward Cuisinart). Very sturdy filter cone. Makes only 8 cups (!) which is an advantage for me since I live alone and don't need coffee sitting for four days in a 10 or 12 cup carafe.
Negative (possibly for some): No timer start, but that's not a real disadvantage since brew time for a full 8 cups is only about six minutes.
