REVIEW – My wife and I have been playing board games and card games for as long as we’ve been married. When our kids got old enough, we taught them to play our favorites, games like Settlers of Catan, Carcassonne, and Ticket to Ride. Recently, our final kid headed off to college, so my wife …

REVIEW – The nightstand beside my bed has a lamp, a reading light, and a clock, and I often have an iPad that needs charging as well. As there is only one wall outlet nearby, it’s the perfect place for a surge protector, and that’s why I have been testing a Cutie from Accell Power. …
CROWDFUNDING NEWS – Toilet cleaning automation is generally low-tech. You drop a tablet into the tank, where it gradually dissolves over time as its chemicals clean your bowl. The SmartLOO takes this concept and implements in a smarter fashion; that is, it releases a small amount of cleaning chemical every time you flush. This …

REVIEW – We recently moved to a new single-story house where more than half the rooms have a hardwood floor, which tends to collect dust bunnies. My wife and I are busy working from home, and we have a small dog as well. Altogether, this seems like the perfect proving grounds for a robotic vacuum …
NEWS – The FAA has recently put forth a proposal that would allow them to track all drones over 0.55 pounds, even drones for hobbyists like those reviewed on this site.

REVIEW – We don’t watch a lot of TV these days, but we do use it to check the weather, catch up on local news, and track emergency events. We recently moved to a new location that’s definitely more rural than urban, so I thought this would be a good time to upgrade my TV’s …

REVIEW – Our family has several pieces of luggage, but after traveling to Asia and back and all over the east coast, they’re pretty beaten up. Additionally, they are not very flexible, as they have one main compartment for storing everything. It’s time to try something new, preferably something that is both durable and flexible. …
REVIEW – Some people love to cook and are good at it. Others of us are not-so-skilled, but we still have to eat. Eating out every night is rather expensive, and Ramen noodles get old in a hurry. What’s a non-cook to do? I have a theory: I think it’s possible to do a lot …
REVIEW – Sometimes I want to consume audio content alone, but often I want to share it with my wife. We listen to music together while working in the garage, audio books while driving in the car during our vacation, and podcasts while cooking and cleaning in the kitchen.
