REVIEW – Once I purchased my new home a few months ago, I started working on obtaining the tools that are necessary to keep the DIY projects going and the cost to pay the PROs down. A pressure washer is a great tool for jobs around the house. I got the opportunity to test the […]

REVIEW – I know Creative Labs from their line of headphones and other audio gear so I was excited to review this familiar brand name. These on-ear headphones did not disappoint, and as with most Creative products, they put in a lot of quality for the price. What is it The Creative Soundblaster Jam V2

REVIEW – Over the past few months, I have tested a Chainsaw and Pole Saw manufactured by a company called Litheli. Their products are battery powered and the two that I tested worked great. I have since become a fan and now that it is Spring and the grass is growing again, I get to

REVIEW – The Work Sharp Original Knife and Tool Electric Sharpener is one of the best tools I own. It has worked perfectly, for years. Work Sharp just came out with an updated version, the Mk. 2. If you’d like to sharpen a knife to paper-shaving sharp in under 5 minutes instead of slow, plodding,

REVIEW – A few months ago when I bought my new home, one of the very attractive features was the sliding door that leads to the deck. The previous owner made sure that there was extra security by using a piece of wood for added security. While it works, It is not my idea of

REVIEW – Everyone has a story to tell. Whether that’s your profession (vocalist, podcaster, or content producer) or your hobby (storyteller, singer/songwriter or gamer), you need a clear, strong voice to give to the world. Price tag does not always mean better, and the Samson Q9U tries to straddle the border between professional-grade sound and

REVIEW – Several years ago, I decided that I was done with conventional style pocket wallets and would only use slim wallets with RFID protection. Over the past few years, I have tried several slim wallets including some well-known brands. I quickly decided that none of them worked to carry both my paper money and

REVIEW – When I make one I make sure that I have the right cherries on hand. (Using those maraschino cherries is for amateurs.) I also need the perfect orange bitters, and good quality simple syrup. The right sized glass is also critical, and if you have the ability to make one, use a classic

REVIEW – An immersion hand blender isn’t one of those kitchen gadgets that I thought I needed. That is until I used one at a friend’s to make guacamole. It was so much easier than mashing the avocados with a fork, and the results were excellent. So, when I was allowed to review one, I

REVIEWS – I want my house to be clean, but I don’t want to be the one to clean it. Am I lazy? Well yeah, I guess I am. At least I’m lazy when it comes to cleaning the house. That’s why I have robots that will do my bidding. Robot vacuums to be exact.

REVIEW – Many of us suffer from sore muscles or tension. Do you know what helps? A good neck massage. But having a cooperative partner that is willing to give you that massage is a rarity. Hiring a masseuse can be expensive. RelaxUltima could be the answer with their neck massager. So yes, I am

REVIEW – I use my tablet all over the house. In the kitchen when I’m cooking, in my bed if my husband goes to sleep but I’m in the middle of a Netflix binge, and on my desk for casual Zoom meetings. As a result, I’m constantly on the search for the perfect tablet stand

REVIEW – Sometimes, you just want to listen to music, a podcast, or talk on the phone while out and about. If you are someone like me who always has sunglasses on while walking, or simply wears glasses to see as many folks, the Lucyd Lyte Wayfarer glasses allow you to do all of the

REVIEW – Chopping, grating, and slicing are some of the time-consuming chores that are required if you cook a lot. Food processors have revolutionized that process by bringing mechanization into the food prep process. Magiccos introduced their FP 416A 1000 Watt 14-cup food processer into the crowded food processor marketplace. Let’s take a look and

REVIEW – Ever since I tried an air purifier to help with my kids’ allergies that often led to asthma attacks, I have been a fan. The use of air purifiers has changed our lives in my household for the better and I am always ready and willing to test a similar new device. Enter

REVIEW – Anyone who does art, design, or photo retouching on a computer knows the name Wacom. Wacom has made graphics tablets for years. I’ve used them for at least 20 years starting with the Intuos 2 tablet. Eventually, I upgraded to the Intuos Pro, which I still use occasionally. However, many artists and designers

REVIEW – Mu6. See what they did with that brand name? Could this set be your new music listening device? The Mu6 open ear headphones have a unique design but how do they sound compared to in-ear and over the ear designs? What is it The Mu6 Ring is open-ear, Bluetooth audio, behind the head, mic

REVIEW – The xFyro ANC Pro earbuds are this reviewer’s first wireless earbuds. There, I’ve said it. I have some high-end ‘over the ears’ for comparison, and some name brand in-ear types, so head-to-head (did he say that?) should make for a good test. Did the xFyro ANC Pro buds perform well with accurate sound
