Last week, I was sent an electric shaver from Newdermo to try out and review. The shaver is waterproof, allowing you to shave in the shower and can be used on all parts of the body. It comes with a cleaning brush. I have been on a quest to find a good electric razor because I am tired of wasting a ton of money on disposables and replacement heads. Plus I need a quick way to take care of my legs in the mornings before going to work. I was hoping that this razor might work. I was sorely … [Read more...]
Product Review – Ancord Bluetooth Shower Speaker
March 9, 2018 by 1 Comment
Last week, I was asked to try out and review the Ancord Bluetooth shower speaker. The speaker can connect to your phone via Bluetooth, to an MP3 player with an aux cable, or play audio from an SD card. You can also answer phone calls as well. Its waterproof (IPX6) & shockproof, and has s strap for hanging. I’ve never had a Bluetooth speaker before, so I was very excited to try this out. I’m a little behind the times as far as MP3s go. I still use an MP3 player since I don’t like to eat up … [Read more...]
Product Review – Pigtail Food Flippers from Cave Tools
July 8, 2017 by Leave a Comment
A few weeks back, I was sent a set of Pigtail Food Flippers from Cave Tools to try out and review. Essentially, these are stainless steel hooks that you can use to flip your meat without leaving marks. This set comes with two flippers, a longer one to use on the grill and a shorter one you can use on the stove. I’ve never used a BBQ hook before, so I was curious about these. They are very sharp and you definitely don’t want to find yourself on the business end of one. It’s easy to use: … [Read more...]
Product Review – 41-inch Telescope Tripod from DreamLifter
March 28, 2017 by 1 Comment
Last week, I received the 41-inch Telescope Tripod from DreamLifter to test out and review. The tripod is made from aluminum alloy and can rotate 360 degrees. It’s lightweight and comes with a phone attachment and a carry bag. I have been looking for a lighter tripod to use for reviews and with my lightbox. My old one is more heavy duty, and while great for outdoor activities, it’s hard to get my camera screwed onto the base. The legs also tend to stick when expanding them as … [Read more...]
Product Review – Ozeri ProMax 500 lbs Digital Bath Scale
March 26, 2017 by Leave a Comment
A few weeks ago, Ozeri asked me to check out their Ozeri ProMax 500 lbs Digital Bath Scale. This scale has a tempered glass top and a digital face. It runs on 3 AAA batteries, and also included a tape measure and a fat caliper. I have reviewed several scales so far for Ozeri and all of them have been great. My favorite has been the Weightmaster II Bath Scale, which I no longer have. However, this new one is every bit as good even though it doesn’t have a lot of the same features. Now, … [Read more...]
Product Review – LITEBOX Pro-240
January 29, 2017 by Leave a Comment
Two weeks ago, I was asked to try out the LITEBOX Pro-240 light box kit. The light box kit comes with everything you need to take profession grad photos of objects. It includes two CRI 90+ LED dimmable light bars, 4 background sweeps, a tripod for a cell phone, and a carry case. The light box itself is 24x24x24 inches. I do a lot of stock photography for my covers, and have cobbled together an assortment of light boxes of the years...some of them decent and most of them not. I was … [Read more...]
Product Review – Electronic Bug Zapper
September 11, 2016 by Leave a Comment
A few weeks, I was asked to try out and review the Electronic Bug Zapper from Ohuhu. The zapper is designed to be used indoors and uses two 10 watt UV bulbs. It covers up to 320 square feet and makes no zap sound. The zapper itself is made with thin metal and plastic. You can replace the bubs by first discharging it with a screwdriver, then pulling down the screen. It also has a plastic tray to catch bugs that slides in and out. It comes with a chain that you can use to hang it. It’s … [Read more...]
Product Review – eReading LED Desk Lamp from BenQ
August 21, 2016 by 1 Comment
Last week, I was sent an eReading LED Desk Lamp from BenQ to try out and review. The lamp is curved, offing 90cm of coverage, giving 150% more light coverage than other lamps. It has a touch sensitive control ring, adjustable brightness, ambient light sensor that automatically adjusts the brightness, and is flexible so you can adjust it as needed. We recently moved, and the area where I now have my desk & computer at doesn’t get much light. I no longer have my big pole light or a … [Read more...]
Product Review – Stolevar Camping Cookware Set

Last week, I was sent a Camping Cookware Set from Stolevar to test out and review. The set consists of an anodized nonstick pot (with lid) & pan, 2 bowls, folding spoon & fork, soup spoon, bamboo spatula, and a sponge. It’s designed to be lightweight, making it perfect for backpacking or any camping trip. It comes in a nylon drawstring bag. I’ve had many similar sets over the years, and for the most part they were ok. Typical issues I’ve learned to look for are not heating evenly, … [Read more...]
Product Review – Pet Nail Grinder
July 7, 2016 by Leave a Comment
A few days ago, I was sent a Pet Nail Grinder from Lifepul. The grinder is battery operated (2 AA not included) and has a metal diamond-bit grinder. It can be used on both dogs and cats, and is designed to not make a lot of noise. My mom’s puppy Tank, a boxer, has nails that grow super-fast & he had no idea as of yet how much they hurt when he paws at us. He’s pretty active so it’s difficult to get him to stay still for long. On advice from the vet, we were trying to use a regular … [Read more...]
