How do you get whole library to download with just a few buttons? I was just testing a refurbished Kindle ereader that I received the other day and downloaded the books one at a time. An easier way? I wanna hear about it!

To keep this related to the OP's solution, while this is too much work for those with small libraries, I keep separate Calibre libraries for Amazon, Kobo, B&N and Baen (plus a library for all other publishers/sellers). After importing into these libraries, I then send a copy to my general library. This really helped me to keep track so that I was sure everything was imported into Calibre in case of deletion or seller who went offline.

FWIW, I primarily sideload. I have hundreds of books at Kobo, B&N and Baen and over 1000 at Amazon. Endless scrolling is easier to do on my computer than my ereader.
