Midea Flexify French Door Air Fryer Oven review – the little oven that replaces a conventional oven

midea airfryer oven 01

REVIEW – Being empty nesters has greatly reduced the size of our meals. Firing up our big conventional oven seems like a waste of electricity, which of course means money. Since using the Midea Flexify French Door Air Fryer Oven for the last month or so, we have not used our big oven one time.

isinwheel S10Max scooter review – more than enough for most riders

isinwheel s10Max scooter 20

REVIEW –  I had just finished reviewing the Ausom DT1 Pro scooter when another review offer came in for the isinwheel S10Max scooter. I loved the power and speed of the Ausom DT1 Pro, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable letting people who aren’t experienced scooter riders try it out in anything but the lowest settings

Infinacore M3 Mini MagSafe power bank review – It’s even better with a Gadgeteer logo!

infinacore m3 11

REVIEW – EDC for tech nerds should include a power bank for those times when you’re away from outlets. Today I want to show you the Infinacore M3 Mini MagSafe Power Bank that in and of itself isn’t extraordinary, but the fact that they offer a customization/engraving feature makes it more fun than an average

Feppo Silicone Dish Warming Tray review – Keep your hot foods hot, no Sterno required!

Feppo 9

REVIEW – We enjoy hosting groups for parties and gatherings at our home.  Since we have moved into our new house three years ago, the number of gatherings has increased.  All of these parties require food, and up until I received the Feppo Silicone Dish Warming Tray, that meant having cans of Sterno and unwieldy

Treblab HD-360 portable Bluetooth speaker review – Go ahead, get two for wireless stereo!

Treblab HD 360 5

REVIEW – Tribit. Tronsmart. Treblab. Notice any similarities? They all make Bluetooth speakers and are competitors in both price and features—but do their names need to sound alike? Even I—a reviewer—sometimes get confused. I can only imagine how a regular customer looking for an affordable Bluetooth speaker might feel. To clarify a bit, this review

reMarkable Paper Pro color e-ink paper tablet review – Does the price justify the upgrade?

remarkable paper pro 9

REVIEW – I’m a big fan of the reMarkable 2. I reviewed it 2 years ago and still love it to this day. It still works great and is still my favorite of all the other e-ink note-taking tablets I’ve tried. So, of course, when they released the reMarkable Paper Pro I wanted to get

BACM 01

REVIEW – Do you feel like every day is leg day? Whether you need help with circulation or you’re an athlete looking to recover, a massage can do wonders. While we might not have the time to get to an actual massage, pulling on a pair of massaging air compression boots is a great alternative.

PECRON E3600LFP Portable Power Station review – kick power outages in the butt

pecron e3600lfp 01

REVIEW – I have lived in Florida for almost my entire life. One thing I’ve never gotten used to is the hurricane season and the power outages that come with it. Thankfully, we’ve never had a devastating storm wipe us out like many in our state. We’ve talked about getting a whole-home generator in every

Innova 5610 OBD2 Bidirectional Scan Tool review – Peek under the hood

Innova 5610 01

REVIEW – Earlier this year I reviewed another vehicle scan tool that was packed with features. The rich graphical interface was delightful, but the older Android OS and confusing layout didn’t make for the most pleasant experience. The Innova 5610 is another scan tool that takes a different approach with a text-heavy display, real buttons,

RunStar Smart Scale review – a lot of information, at (and from!) your fingertips.

RunStar Scale 5

REVIEW – As we come into the holiday (and eating!) season, a lot of people will be paying attention to their weight, myself included.  I’m a competitive athlete, but tend toward the “big boned” side of things. So I need to pay attention to my body composition and distribution of muscle and fat to ensure

xchair xtechultimateexecutivechair review 1

REVIEW – The X-Tech Ultimate is the latest product from X-Chair. You may recognize X-Tech from their television advertisements. These are premium office chairs that come with a price tag to match. I have always been curious about how comfortable a high-end chair could be, so I decided to review the X-Chair X-Tech Ultimate Executive

Jetbeam E26 Kunai 3-in-1 flat EDC flashlight review – Pew pew in your pocket

Jetbeam E26 01

REVIEW – I do love a square-shaped flat flashlight. They’re more pocket-friendly. Now, Jetbeam has released another multi-mode EDC light that combines a bright LED, a green laser, and UV! What is it? The Jetbeam E26 is powered by a Luminus SFT40 LED rated at 2000 lumens output (though the included paperwork lists 1700 lumens). It

Brane X Speaker review – It’s (not just) all about that bass

Brane X 5

REVIEW – The cynical side of me just loves it when a product is hyped to be something it isn’t—and yet is. Reviews of the Brane X speaker from Brane Audio have touted how it “bends the laws of physics” with its ability to supply bass that was only possible from much larger speakers. Heck,

Backfire NALU E Skateboard 14 scaled e1732601832591

REVIEW – Backfire recently held a crowdfunded campaign for the NALU E-Skateboard, a new option that I thought looked like a great addition to the family fleet. The NALU E-Skateboard has some great features such as a gallium nitride battery, easy handheld controller, and a beautiful design. Since I am not a skateboarder I was
