As any kid knows, the Christmas stocking is integral to the gift-receiving process, and the larger the stocking means the more presents that could be stuffed inside.

TV infomercials are ingenious advertisements that draw us in with a slick sales pitch, grab our attention, pique our curiosity and then our wallet. I’ve been given the opportunity to review a couple “As seen on TV” products to see if their claims stand up to a real world test and if they are worth

Early last year I was sent a PolarPillow to review (linked below in related links section) and didn’t give it a very favorable review because I found it to be too heavy and flat for my own liking. The folks at PolarPilow recently contacted me again to ask if I’d like to review an updated version of

When I think of air filters, I picture large devices that are too big to use in an office cubicle – and they certainly won’t work in a car. The Air Naturalizer from CritterZone is only 4.5″H x 2.75″W x 2″D, so it’s small enough to place discreetly near your pet’s bed or litter box to
