Ask a question

Things people ask us

Usually the answer is simpler than the store makes it.

  • “Which laptop does a first-year college student actually need?”
  • “Is a mesh system worth it for a railroad apartment?”
  • “What's the easiest phone for my dad, who hates his current one?”
  • “Which tablet is easiest for video calls with the grandkids?”
  • “Is this printer going to need ink every month?”
  • “Is my five-year-old laptop worth fixing?”

Questions people ask

Is it really free?

Yes. No visit required and no strings. Most people just want a straight answer from someone who isn't on commission.

Do you get paid by the brands you recommend?

No. We don't use affiliate links and nobody pays us to recommend their products. If that ever changes, we'll say so on this page.

What if I buy it and can't set it up?

Then you know who to call. But plenty of people buy what we suggest and set it up themselves, and that's fine too.

Three ways in

What are you thinking of buying?

Call or text if that's easier. We'll ask a few questions and find a time that works.
