Secretlab TITAN Evo Gaming Chair review – Way too good to be a secret

SLTE 01

REVIEW – Think about where you clock most of your hours. Sleep and work probably rank right up there. Your desk might be for work or gaming but either way it’s a lot of time sitting and in my opinion quality and good ergonomics are worth paying for. Secretlab’s TITAN Evo gaming chair recently arrived

Outdoor Edge Pivot knife review – For boot, belt or neck

PIVOT 10

REVIEW – The Outdoor Edge Pivot Knife is a ‘neck knife’ or ‘boot knife’. I’ve heard this style referred to as a ‘LDK’ or ‘last ditch knife’. Enough quote marks for one review. The Pivot knife is versatile enough to be carried in all those ways, or even in a pocket with the belt clip

Rattan Quercus Premium Long Range Utility Ebike review – The Swiss Army Knife of Ebikes

rattan quercusebike review 1

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed two mountain bike-style e-bikes for The Gadgeteer and liked them both: the TurboAnt Thunder T1 & the Heybike Brawn. I wanted to try a cargo-style bike on for size because my main uses are commuting and carrying groceries. The Rattan Quercus appealed to me because it seemed designed especially for those types

Edifier NeoBuds Pro 2 5

REVIEW – A couple of years ago, I reviewed the Edifier NeoBuds Pro True Wireless earbuds. I Liked them—quite a bit. In fact, I still have and use them. Now, Edifier has released their successor—the NeoBuds Pro 2 True Wireless Noise Cancelation In-ear Headphones. Edifier has promoted the “earphones” from Earbuds to In-ear Headphones. Is

Govee Cube Wall Sconces review – nice customizable RGB wall sconces

govee sconces 01

REVIEW – Govee has released a dizzying array of smart lighting products over the last few years, and I’m always a sucker for trying out new models in my house (often to the annoyance of my partner, she’s much less enthusiastic about adding RGB lights everywhere). Govee sent over their Govee Cube Wall Sconces, so

Poly 80UC Review 4

REVIEW – If you find most of your workday consists of being on calls, a quality headset is just as important as a quality mouse and keyboard.  While many headphones have mics for taking calls on the go, their quality isn’t always great.  We’re checking out the Poly Voyager Surround 80 UC to see if

Outdoor Edge Razor VX2 knife review – From skeptic to enthusiast in a day

RAZOR VX2 16

REVIEW – I was initially skeptical about the Outdoor Edge Razor VX2 Knife but in no time I became impressed with it. A knife with a replaceable blade? How safe is that? How secure can the blade be? Based on no facts at all, I was concerned the knife would be a hardware-store-grade, kitschy knife

NIVIOP counter top 2.5L electric composter review

Niviop Composter 1

REVIEW -I have a love/hate relationship with composting.  I love having compost for my garden, but I keep getting off the composting train because it’s gross.   In the flimsy little can the city gave us I’d get mold, bugs and sometimes smells…and none of those are things you want in your kitchen.  I kept seeing
