cuktech 30 power bank 1 1

REVIEW – Back in September of last year, I reviewed theΒ CUKTECH 20 power bank and was quite impressed.Β  I still use it on a regular basis, and it is small enough to take with me on trips considering the slimmer profile that it has. CUKTECH showed me that they are serious about this space, so when […]

Ecovacs DEEBOT X8 PRO OMNI robot vac/mop review – Edging closer to the perfect vac/mop

ecovacs x8pro 31

REVIEW – I have reviewed a slew of robot vacuums and vac/mops. Every generation seems to get a little bit better, but overall, the design remains the same, albeit with a tweak here and there. Today, we’re looking at an entirely new generation of robot vac/mop that abandons the traditional rotating mopping plates in favor

tokblind motorizedblackoutrollershade review 1

REVIEW – I live on the corner of my subdivision, and there’s an annoying sign spotlight that shines right into my yard. I’ve used blackout curtains in my bedroom for years, and they do a nice job, but having to open and close them all the time can be a pain; I know first-world problems.

ultimea aura a60 2

REVIEW – I love watching movies. Subbed, dubbed, foreign, domestic, it doesn’t matter. Give me some good acting and a good story and I’m sucked in. I do most all of my movie watching at home. Have you tried taking a 6 member family to the movies? I’d have to sell a kidney! Anyway, I

teton blanket 7

REVIEW – My family and I love to camp, but we don’t limit our camping to just the warm months.Β  Having a nice blanket that you can use outside by the campfire is a necessity for β€œshoulder season” camping.Β  While you can theoretically use any blanket for this, normal household blankets pose some challenges for

Hookii Neomow X robotic lawn mower review – a great robot lawnmower!

hookii neomow x 24

REVIEW – I dislike mowing the lawn so much that I finally entered the middle-age era of paying neighbor kids to do it in recent years. We have about a quarter acre of grass, and it is a chore I’d rather avoid if possible. Unfortunately, our last lawn mower has moved on, so the timing

SoundPeats Pop Clip Earbuds 11 e1742015820675

REVIEW – Recently I had the opportunity to review SoundPeats PearlClip Pro earbuds and I was pleasantly surprised by the open air format and design. I hadn’t tried them before and initially thought they looked a bit odd. Oddity aside, trying new gadgets is always fun, so I gave them a shot and was pleasantly

Miko 3: The AI-Powered Learning Robot review – a small tablet dressed as a robot

MIKO 3 ROBOT 11

REVIEW – I grew up hearing the Benjamin Franklin saying β€œβ€¦in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.”. I would propose an updated version for our modern era: β€œβ€¦except death, taxes, and using β€˜AI’ in every tech product imaginable”. Here at the Gadgeteer, we’re a β€œNo-AI in our reviews”

AUXITO Portable Auto Jump Starter with Dual-Panel LED review

Auxito Jump Starter 16

REVIEW – I remember the days when all I had were used cars that would often break down at the most inconvenient times. On many occasions, it was because of a less than optimal battery losing its charge while parked somewhere. I can remember waiting at the side of the road with jumper cables, hoping

Fourteen Homes Stainless Steel Egg Whisk review – definitely better than a fork

14homes whisk 1

REVIEW – I eat scrambled eggs at least once a week, and I often have hot chocolate in the winter months. I have used a battery-powered frother to do my mixing, but it’s always frustrating when the battery dies. First world problems deserve a solution too, and today I want to tell you about the

Catalyst Waterproof iPhone case review – Ultimate protection

CatalystTotal 6

REVIEW – Normally, when folks are looking for a phone case, it’s just for the basics: corner protection in case of a gravity incident, maybe a little lip to prevent scratches when placing face-down on a table, nice grippy sides and/or back to keep it from skittering across the dashboard in that swerve to avoid

Gerber MiniSada 01 e1741665080267

REVIEW – Hi, my name is Zack and I have a knife problem although I’d prefer to call myself a knife aficionado. I just reviewed the very expensive Benchmade Bugout 535-09 and of course it’s hard not to love a knife of that quality but sometimes you just need something cheap but reliable. The original

Q Golf Q Gen 2 adjustable golf club review – One club to rule them all

qgolf qclubgen2 8

REVIEW – I like to golf. I enjoy traveling. But…golfing when traveling? A pain. Why? Either I am adding to my travel baggage, schlepping a heavy golf bag (plus a travel case) through an airport, or paying through the nose to rent questionable clubs at the golf course. Neither one is a great option. Enter

Master & Dynamic ME05 Earphones review – Back to the Future

Master Dynamic ME 05 16

REVIEW – Have you ever heard the saying β€œYou must go back to move forward”? Nah, me neither. However, that bit of sage advice might apply to the β€œnew” Master & Dynamic ME05 wired earphones. These little gems hark back to the time when most wireless earphones were either too meh-sounding, too expensive, or both.
