Goodnature Clever Killer mouse trap review – Is this a better mouse trap?

goodnature clever mousetrap 1

REVIEW – I live in a rural area surrounded by 12 acres of woods. No matter how many times we’ve made sure there are no holes for mice to get into the house, they still manage to find a way in. Usually, we’ll just hear one scratching in the ceiling. But occasionally, we’ll see one

FEPPO Steam Mop Cleaner review – Oh, yeah, I need steam to make it real (clean)!

Feppo Steam Mop Cleaner 22

REVIEW – I enjoy keeping my domicile clean and try not to use chemicals. I’ve used a steam cleaner for many years, but it was cumbersome to assemble, took a lot of time to heat, and was heavy. FEPPO’s multifunctional Steam Mop Cleaner addresses all those issues and adds more unexpected functionality. ⬇︎ Jump to summary (pros/cons)

Das Keyboard Delta Force 65 mechanical keyboard review – Das ist gut

daskeyboard deltaforce65 7

REVIEW – If you don’t know by now, I’m a mechanical keyboard enthusiast, AKA nerd, and Das Keyboard will always hold a special place in my heart. You see, my first mechanical keyboard was a Model S with blue clicky switches. I wasn’t a good typist at the time, so I bought one with blank

Airthereal Revive Composter 1

REVIEW – Those who have read many of my reviews and posts know by now that I am an ecoholic and my family is all about eco-friendly devices and organic foods. Each year, our garden produces enough greens and vegetables to feed my family and our surrounding neighbors for a year. We are always looking

LOKLik iPaint review – turn your photos into paint-by-number

Loklik 21

REVIEW – I will admit I’m a veteran painter, but I’m not a GOOD painter.  My experience is limited to some sip and paint sessions with my silly friends and a fun “paint your pet” class or two. I enjoy painting, though, so when the LOKLiK folks were looking for someone to test their newest

5.11 Tactical women’s cargo pants review – Pockets, pockets, pockets!

511 pants 17

REVIEW – I’m a 61-year-old woman (how the heck did that happen?!) who likes to wear cargo pants. That probably makes me weird, and I don’t care because more pockets solve all life’s problems. But I also don’t want to look like I’m on safari when I run to Walmart for some Diet Coke, so

STRAUTO rechargeable universal inflator review – Feature set is definitely not inflated

STRAUTO Universal Inflator 17 e1748144445847

REVIEW – Having what seems like a fleet of bicycles and a myriad of fun things that all require inflation like float tubes, paddle boards, and kayaks means a lot of work to keep things topped off. I have several air pumps and while it’s not bad exercise, it’s not my favorite thing to do.

Vosteed Corgi V EDC knife review – A fidgetable knife with a built-in smiley face!

Vosteed Corgi 20 203927671

REVIEW – I’ve carried a small knife for the last 20 years or so, but I’ve never considered myself a “knife guy.” More of a “guy with a knife.”   In fact, I’ve carried the same knife for the last 20 years. (Well, not the exact same knife because I lose stuff, but the same

YUNZII AL80 QMK/VIA mechanical keyboard review

Yunzii AL80 MechanicalKeyboard 7

REVIEW – I previously reviewed the Yunzii AL68 mechanical keyboard and was impressed by the quality, and like some of my fellow Gadgeteers, love the sound and typing experience. When the Yunzii AL80 QMK/VIA Aluminum LCD Mechanical Keyboard was offered to review, I wasted no time requesting it! So, how is the AL80 compared to

TST R002-2025 eBike review – a fun little moped for adults and teens alike

TSTR002 ebike 28

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed and owned quite a few Ebikes (and non-E bikes) during my lifetime, but one style has eluded me thus far: the cafe racer (also known as “scrambler” or moped) style Ebike. I see more and more riders zooming around on these bikes in my town and I’ve always wondered what they’re

Saramonic K9 11

REVIEW – I am so deep into the world of content creation, and I create a variety of videos. Solid microphones with great audio and reception are a critical part of my process. Lately, I have been working hard at building myself a new studio in my home, and I want to make sure that

SwitchBot Lock Ultra Vision Combo review – Bring your deadbolts into the 21st century

SwitchBot Lock Ultra and Keypad Vision Combo 81

REVIEW— SwitchBot’s previous incarnation, the Lock Pro, is still on duty, keeping my storage room, lawn mower, and OrangeStorm Giga 3D printer secure. I love being able to unlock the door without fumbling with keys. One of my neighbors commented that he thought it was very cool. I couldn’t agree more. SwitchBot has an updated version,

HOTO SNAPBLOQ system review – Modular tools for DIYers

hoto snapbloq 24

REVIEW – Years ago, a Dremel kit was a must-have toolset for DIYers and crafters. They were very useful tools with a variety of bits for different tasks, but they were bulky with a thick power cord. These days, rechargeable cordless tools are more convenient and compact. Today, I want to introduce you to the
