Vangoa 23 inch mahogany concert ukulele bundle (VU403) review – bringing a little Hawaii home

vangoa concertuke 10

REVIEW – Whenever I hear the ukulele, I’m transported back to my childhood and seeing Tiny Tim playing and singing “Tiptoe Through the Tulips”.  If you’re too young, a quick search will take you to it.  Yes, that can scar someone for life.  But since then, there have been plenty of terrific ukulele performances, including

Zyxel Switch 16

REVIEW – Most of the Gadgeteer readers that follow my reviews must know that I am a certified gadget nerd. What you might not know is that when it comes to the network in my home, I am on a quest to replace as many of the devices in my home with ones that have

Fiido T1 Pro Utility Electric Bike review – Get your (electric) motor running!

Fiido T1Pro Rev 194348472

REVIEW – With gas prices constantly in flux and a recession looming in the background it’s wise to start considering alternative modes of transportation. While all the coolest electric cars remain well out of my price range the newest crop of electric bikes is becoming increasingly attractive. Boasting improved power and range compared to previous

Rogue Iron Factor Disc Golf Rangefinder review – best rangefinder under $100

Rogue Iron Factor Rangefinder 01

REVIEW – Besides being a gadget lover I am addicted to disc golf. I started playing in 2018 and have been hooked ever since. An important aspect of the game is knowing how far you are from the basket. Miscalculate the distance and you could throw the disc too short or too long. Let’s see if

Dr. Massage Prowlr orbital massager review – a revolution in massage

drmassage prowlr 5

REVIEW – Massagers are a hot item.  The ones we typically see are percussion massagers – the ones that use repeated beatings to pound your aching muscles into submission. But sometimes, you just want a good, non-pounding massage to gently shake everything into a nice, relaxed state.  Enter Dr. Massage and the Prowlr orbital massager.

Huion Inspiroy Dial 2 Pen Tablet review – More functional than pretty

Huion Inspiroy Dial 2 15

REVIEW – In previous graphics tablet reviews, I’ve noted that there are a lot of drawing tablets (both slate and display) available for what I always thought was a relativity small market. Maybe the market is much bigger than I think it is, because today, the number of tablets and companies offering them is growing,

liq splatterdom 23

REVIEW – Cooking is a messy business. Deliciousness usually means splashes and splatters and that leads to tons of cleanup.  If only there was a way to contain all those splatters while still giving you access to the yum in the pan. Welcome to the SplatterDōm! What is it? SplatterDōm is a food-grade silicone lid

REVIEW – I recently decided to refresh/update my office which was originally remodeled not long after we moved into this house back in 1999. As luck would have it, the fine folks of balolo in Germany offered to send me their Setup Cockpit modular monitor stand to review. I selected some of the accessories, they

saker chainsaw 5

REVIEW – We heat our house with wood that I cut off of the local state forest.  So, I’m used to chain saws and have two large gas-powered beasts that I use to provide our heat.  When the offer to review the Saker mini chainsaw came up, I thought it would be a cute little

POLONO PL60 thermal label printer review – fast and easy labels

polono printer 4

REVIEW – As someone who has sold thousands of items on Ebay over the last few decades, I should have invested in a thermal printer long ago. Instead, for thousands of items I’ve either printed out shipping labels on regular paper and cut them out and taped them on, or used 2-labels-per-sheet pages and had

Lytmi Fantasy TV LED Backlight Kit review – It’s like having a party behind your TV!

Lytmi 6

REVIEW – Light strips that mount behind the tv have been around for a few years.  We had the original Philips Hue light strip behind our main TV years ago.  You could change the light strip color via an app or Alexa.  It was relegated to a single color.  Then there were the light strips

Everscape 3D Picture review – cool idea if you have the right picture

Everscape 3D Picture 01

REVIEW – I have tried photo-to-canvas prints before and loved the results so when Everscape offered a review of their 3D picture cube I was curious how it would look. Let’s see how the Everscape 3D picture cube turns out.   What is it? Everscape takes your two-dimensional picture and using their patent-pending AI process and
