REVIEW – One of the more annoying things in 3D printing is when a print fails because of filament issues. You start a long print, check on it after a bit, and maybe notice some slight stringing; then, inevitably, you return later to find the horrid “bird’s nest,” strings, and gobs of costly filament everywhere.

REVIEW – My son is moving into an apartment for his second year of college, and needs a vacuum cleaner that doesn’t take up a lot of room. Fortunately, I was able to check out Levoit’s line of cordless vacuum cleaners, the LVAC-200 and LVAC-300. What are they like, and how are they different? ⬇︎ Jump

REVIEW – The world of earbuds is a vast landscape littered with endless choices of sizes, shapes, prices, and features. It is bordering on ridiculous just how many choices you actually have, which in itself can present paralysis by analysis. Luckily, you have the Gadgeteer to help you!

REVIEW – Let’s face it—sometimes a gadget we review is not what I would call a necessity, or even practical. But a gadget can be both impractical—and fun! 8849 is a maker of super-rugged, outdoors Android phones and tablets. The name 8849 comes from the height of Mt. Everest—8848 meters (+1 meter). Some of 8849’s

REVIEW – Scooters are everywhere now! Gone are the days of the inexpensive aluminum Razor push scooters. These electrified beasts are seemingly on every street corner. My son is in college and an electric scooter would be a real convenient way to get around. I wonder what he thinks about the Kaabo Urban electric scooter.

REVIEW – Apparently, SwitchBot doesn’t rest much. I reviewed their tiny, but powerful SwitchBot K10+ Vacuum about a year ago. They followed it up with a combo system that combined the capable K10 and a stick vacuum a few months later (read it here). I loved both and still use them. Frankly, I was somewhat
REVIEW – I’m always glad to have another gadget helping around the house, but I’m not always glad about the extra space that they take. This is why I appreciate those that combine two or more gadgets into one. In this review, I’m looking at a combination air purifier and humidifier from Airthereal. ⬇︎ Jump to

REVIEW – Like many children of the 80’s, I have many fond memories of visiting the mall and getting Orange Julius slushies. In high school, 7-Eleven became a frequented hotspot for slushies as well. I haven’t had one in years, but the offer to review the Vibofrost slushie machine has renewed my passion for slushies

REVIEW – Several years ago, a family of four refugees joined my 4-member family for the better part of a year. With eight in the house, without a tankless water heater like Thermomate’s, someone would have been taking a cold shower. How does the Thermomate CZ422NG perform?

REVIEW – The Apple Watch first came out in 2015, and though I’m not really sure why, I’m a little embarrassed to say I have been on that bandwagon ever since that first year. It has been great for me, and I don’t have any really big complaints, but I have always been curious to

REVIEW – A good charger is invaluable to have around with all of the electronics that we have nowadays. They provide portability and convenience (assuming they’re charged and your kids didn’t leave you a dead one).

REVIEW – Lots of golfers love using GPS devices to track their shots and determine the distance to the pin. These devices show you the course layout and where hazards might ruin your day. The issue is that distances are based on general pin positions and aren’t always accurate. Lots of other golfers prefer laser

REVIEW – I consider myself pretty normal (bold, I know) and I got excited about the COSORI Kettle after the first use. I can justify the emotion if you read on. The COSORI Kettle replaced our old-tech hot pot that would surely boil water, but we don’t usually want it boiled. The COSORI Kettle has

REVIEW – As an admitted crazy cat lady, keeping my cat happy and giving her things that she, as a senior kitty can use, is important. Every cat tree I have is tiered so she can climb it, and there are three sets of stairs throughout the house for her. The Mau Reiya cat tree
