Stonewolf Cruiser Posted January 18, 2019 #152 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Host Anne, This was by far the most comprehensive review I've seen for the Edge. Thanks for taking the time to post it. I now have a much better understanding of the Edge's features, especially the controversial IVs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, the option is there for those who think it is all or nothing. 🙂 ECSLADY has it correct. The controls by the window allows you to determine how far up or down BOTH the window and the shade goes by holding down or up the corresponding button (of course they're not labeled). The window on our particular IV room was a bit noisy when it opens & closes. There's also a sensor for the window so if there's any obstruction in the opening the window will stop.

Thanks! I hope I can make it out of Chicago before the snow flies or I might have to meet everyone in Costa Maya. These instructions were on the dresser - esclady was correct- I had it backwards since you have to hold down on the control by the window or it stops, whereas the one on the control panel you just push and it goes up or down. A long day at work thinking about getting out of Dodge tomorrow so the brain is fried!! 🙂 The cabin attendant showed us how the IV worked, as well as the control panel.

Summertimescallingme Posted January 18, 2019 #156 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Chamina, we figured there must be a reason the AC is shutting down, and decided that it must think we are sleeping or not in the room, and the only way for it to know is if we use the “sleep” light control on the panel. It sounds like vtcruiser found a great way to bypass the “saver” mode as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribbean Chris Posted January 18, 2019 #158 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Anne, the review was great, and I’m just sorry I didn’t get to meet you on that cruise due to our Cruise Critic Meet & Greet being ruined. Completely agree with almost all your points, especially the LOUD, blasting music - who thinks electronic techno stuff Oceanview at 7 a.m.or after dinner in Roof Top Garden is a good idea? We were in Aqua Class with Blu dining room for the first time and had an excellent experience. But no more infinite verandas for me and our former Sky Suites are hilariously expensive. So we booked a Sunset Veranda cabin on Apex almost two years ahead. We can always cancel or switch to another ship. It will be interesting to see if X learns from the Edge issues and modifies anything. P.S. I haven’t noticed anyone mentioning the “holograms” of roses that move along the fancy trough-sinks in the ladies rooms on Edge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtcruising Posted January 18, 2019 #159 Share Posted January 18, 2019 The hologram sinks were cool. - they were hard to get a good picture of - mine looked someone spilled paint in the sink. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
