Canon imageCLASS MF273dw laser printer review – Scan, copy, and 2-sided prints!

Canon imageCLASS MF273dw 23

REVIEW – Despite the technological advances over the past decade or so, I still rely solely on laser printers both monochrome and color for all of my printing needs. Oddly enough, I still need to either scan, copy, or print several times each month. The most recent printer I have only prints so I have […]

eko smartbin 1

REVIEW – Ever since I reviewed the Simplehuman 58 liter dual compartment sensor trash can, I expect all trashcans to open with a wave of my hand. It’s a bit madding and it makes me look like a nut when I wave my hand over a non-smart trash bin. I wanted to get another hands-free

BlueDri DH-76 Compact Commercial Dehumidifier review

BlueDri Dehumidifier 18

REVIEW – During the summer months, the moisture level in my basement is quite high. It is so high that it would start to smell musty. I noticed this issue shortly after purchasing the house and immediately bought a large dehumidifier that has been working well ever since. So, the musty smell is no more,

tilswall paintsprayer 2

REVIEW – I’ve been putting off a few painting jobs around the house. A couple of years ago, I built a farmhouse-style TV stand, and the finish didn’t turn out as I had hoped. I’ve needed to redo it, and I’ve been avoiding it. I am also renovating our home office; the closet is the

Limink S20 portable tri-screen monitor review – Less is more and still less

Limink Portable Tri-Screen Monitor

REVIEW: For a couple of years, travel was my life.  Not always the good kind where you get to see lots of interesting places.  More like the kind where you see the inside of hotel and conference rooms as you work on site.  Ever since I set up my first external monitor at home, I’ve

slimca here 03

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – When Apple Airtags were introduced in 2021, I immediately thought of all the usual things I might lose. Unfortunately, the Mentos candy-shaped Airtag doesn’t slip well into a wallet. The Slimca Here is a credit card-sized tracker compatible with Apple’s “Find My” function and is USB-C rechargeable. What is it? The Slimca
