There is a way to filter reviews on Amazon to show only the pertinent ones.

That is, there are 3-4 different models of this receiver in the product line, and they lump all of the reviews for all of the different models into one “bucket”. You’re reading reviews about the higher end models that have firmware that can be uploaded into them for product enhancements. The one I got doesn’t have that capability. My current AV receiver is a predecessor to the Yamaha model you mentioned. It’s been great and has worked flawlessly for 6-7 years.

Re: [MBZ] OT: TV
Uh, Amazon Prime video has been available on Apple TV since 2017. You have to have a later Apple TV (4) that can install apps to get it, however. https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2017/12/amazon-prime-video-arrives-on-apple-tv-in-over-100-countries/ I am replacing an LG 60” plasma TV that was acting weird starting a month or two ago. In a section about 2/3 up from the bottom of the screen, primarily in the center, but generally in a rectangular area, it would “bloom” in light colors or whites and look pixellated just in that part of the screen. If you have any idea what might be causing this, I’m all ears, as this TV will be going in a guest room for now. We went with a plasma at the time because the viewing angle of the LED TVs of that vintage were pretty lousy, and the TV is in a room that’s long and somewhat narrow, with seating on all sides of the room except that of the TV. I forgot how much of a beast the thing is until my oldest son and I took it off the wall. Oy!

Re: [MBZ] OT - "Touch" Kitchen Faucets
It’s hardly at that level, believe me. I do my best to accommodate when possible, as most requests are pretty realistic and have good reasoning behind them. I did look at these when I was faucet shopping, but when I saw the prices I pretty well dismissed them out of hand, as I couldn’t see the value in spending $100-$200 more for something I consider a gimmick. My thoughts aside, the fiscal aspect of the functionality didn’t make a lot of sense. I have been looking at the reviews for a number of these and I see a reasonably high level of complaints about failures and reliability.

Re: [MBZ] OT - "Touch" Kitchen Faucets
Until the sensor fails and the water runs all weekend... We have touchless faucets at work, they fail pretty regularly and either won't come on or wont shut off. I'm also not impressed with the pull out sprayer ones they've got in the kitchen areas at work, the sprayer head won't stay in place so the faucet is always droopy. We've got a Delta single control that isn't long for this world, it needs new o-rings every single year and it still drips.

[MBZ] OT - "Touch" Kitchen Faucets
Pull-out Kohler faucet at the kitchen sink was starting to leak, so after replacing some O rings only to have it start leaking again a few weeks later, I tossed in the towel and bought a new Moen pull-out single handle faucet to replace it. With discounts and other spiffs I think I paid around $180-$200 for it. Got it installed, all is well. Until of course, SWMBO walks out and says, “But I wanted one of those faucets that you can touch to turn on and off.” Yeah. I pointed out that those types of faucets, at least quality ones, are easily $400 and up and I wasn’t about to drop $400-$500 for a kitchen faucet. And that I had mentioned on several occasions I was going to replace the faucet as it was leaking, and nothing was said at that time. I can see that in the long term I’m probably going to lose this battle, meaning I’ll end up dropping the cost of the Moen plus another new faucet. Sigh.

Re: [MBZ] Fwd: 2003 Mercedes Benz ML 350 AWD
The M112 in the 1998-2005 ML is just as reliable as the M112 in the W210. That includes the 3.7L in my 2003 ML 350. The M272 has the biodegradable balance shaft sprockets.
