REVIEW – Every couple of months or so, I ask the Gadgeteer team if they have any updates that they’d like to send me for reviews that they submitted days, weeks, months, and even years ago. I like to revisit our past reviews to get a sense of how well the products we continue to […]

REVIEW – I love coffee. I love good coffee in pretty much all forms. Hot, cold, iced, and even using the grounds as a rub on steaks is right up my alley. I like to make it myself when possible or find a good local coffee shop to enjoy. I avoid most chain coffee shops

REVIEW – When the opportunity to review one of the 700 Series E-Bikes from Ride1Up, an E-Bike company started 5 years ago in San Diego created to build affordable E-Bikes with high quality parts, I jumped at the chance. How would the 700 Series compare to a previous E-Bike I reviewed and how would it

REVIEW – My house has largely had the same holiday decorations for the last 10 or so years. This includes a tired “plastic” wreath on the front door, that so many of the needles have fallen off of that it looks more like a wreath of wire than greens. And it never had lights –
REVIEW – We know sitting for prolonged periods day in and day out isn’t great for us, and even some of our employers got the memo by offering standing desks. What if there was a way to take this a step further, and add some dynamic movement to our workspace? Movemate thinks that’s possible with

** IMPORTANT: Watch this video before proceeding with the review ** I also want to make very it clear that we did NOT know about this before we posted the review – Julie/Bill CASETiFY’s response from Twitter/X: CASETiFY has always been a bastion of originality, and we hold pride in that.

REVIEW – Do you like to carry a pen in your pocket or gear bag so that you’ll always be able to jot down a note or ask a famous person’s autograph when you run into them (am I the only person who has thought about this scenario?) If you answered yes or no, this

REVIEW – Several years ago my vehicle suffered a mechanical failure stranding my family at a campground at the north end of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel. It was an easy fix, but the nearest auto parts store was miles away with no bicycle, taxi, or ridesharing available. A park ranger took me to
REVIEW – After reviewing the iLive End Table, I realized upgrading our current furniture to smart options when given the chance was something I must take advantage of. Here is what I think of the Giratree Modern Smart Nightstand. What is it? The Giratree Modern Smart Nightstand is just that. It is a nightstand, with

REVIEW – We love our knives here at the Gadgeteer. Most of the time, when a knife comes up for review, several of us reviewers are chomping at the bit to get our hands on it. This time around I’m not sure if everyone else was asleep at the wheel or just didn’t know what

REVIEW – Several years ago, I strung together lights along my backyard fence with varying results. One strand wasn’t really for outdoor use and failed. The next strand I tried required me to daisy chain several together, and eventually failed. As luck would have it, I got my hands on the Quntis 82ft (25m) string

REVIEW – We have a shed and garage that get extremely hot during Indiana summers, and even with the fan going, it’s really uncomfortable to hang out or get projects done in those spaces. Plus, co-reviewer Mason does off-the-grid camping and projects. We thought the Fogatti InstaCool Go portable air conditioner could be useful, especially

REVIEW – My wife and I often have an hour together in the evenings to hang out, and at the end of the day we are often a bit tired. These are the times when we enjoy playing lighter games that allow us to have fun and yet still talk. District Noir is a perfect

REVIEW – On the main desk in my home office, I have two computers. One is a Mac mini, my personal computer, and the other is a MacBook Pro, my work computer. Since I have limited space on my desk, I would like for these computers to share a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. This is
