Magic Eraser
I truly love the magic eraser. Exactly what it says, it does. It magically erases…anything! Are crayons being coloured all over your walls? Use magic eraser! Scuff marks? Use magic eraser! It comes in packs of 2 (mostly) and 4, but even that lasts a dozen times or more(for me). …
Honeywell 18155 SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA Air Purifier
‘Honeywell 18155 SilentComfort Permanent, True HEPA air purifier’ is my first air purifier and I am literally happy with it. Just as it promises it is quite silent and I put it on medium or low most of the time. It seems quite effective too because the air filter …
Mr. Clean Magic erasers
I do not know how women cleaned their homes before the invention of Mr. Clean Magic erasers. The first time I saw these for sale in the store I thought, “yeah right, but well, why not, I’ll try them.” Oh my freaking gosh these things are awesome. …
SunSations Summer Bouquet Dish Liquid with Oxygen Cleaning Power
When I first purchased this product it was not what I had in mind. I, however, didn’t want to have to travel to multiple stores and picked up the first inexpensive bottle of dish soap I found at a local Big Lots store. It was the SunSations Brand Summer …
Family Shower Caddy
I have a lot of bottles that I need in the shower to get done what I do in the shower. There is the regular bar of soap, the shampoo, the conditioner, the shave gel and a bottle of liquid soap. I also keep shampoo in the tub for …
Drain Pro Gel Unclogger
I had this really nasty clog in my apartment sink. I tried using some of the more inexpensive unclogging agents, because I’ve never been the one to spend over 5 dollars for something like that. After trying multiple products I decided to just plunge the sink. I wanted to …
Ready Set Fajita Kit
I received the Ready Set Fajita Kit for my birthday this year, and it was just in the nick of time. Lately, I had been mulling over the idea of starting family restaurant night. I’ll admit it; I’ve been missing Chili’s since we’ve cut way back on …
George Forman Grill
We have had our George Foreman Grill since they came out all those years ago. We use it now and again and although I think we will need to buy another one quite soon we will still go for the same 1 and the same brand.
There is numerous different …
Body Shop’s Vanilla and Tonka Bean Body, Room & Linen Spritz
I like shopping at Body Shop because of they don’t test on animals, so I was really more than happy to try their room and linen sprays as opposed to more popular sprays like Fabreeze. The Vanilla and Tonka Bean is my favorite spray, and I can use it …
KILZ by Masterchem Industries LLC
This general purpose primer does good on just about anything except concrete floors. I recently finished my new basement with this stuff all over the walls. Some of the walls are drywall and some are concrete wall forms. I used a latex base paint over the KILZ primer.
It works best …
Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Bleach
Our house has well water and the toilet bowls can get very nasty looking at times because of it. I decided to try Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Bleach to try to get some of the staining out from it. I figured if nothing else would do the trick, …
Mini Multi Wonder Chopper
I don’t buy many as-seen-on-tv products but I just had to order the Mini Multi Wonder Chopper when I saw the television advertisement. I paid $29.99 for this chopper and it is one of the best kitchen accessories I have ever bought.
The Mini Multi Wonder Chopper is designed …
NordicWare Cactus Kabob Skewer
I am a huge fan of the NordicWare brand and over recent years have been replacing a lot of my cookware with their products, my most recent acquisition being a set of these Cactus Kabob Skewers for the barbecue.
They’re an excellent twist on a traditional barbecue skewer, each …
Dollar Tree Professional Strength Glass Cleaner
I have only used a few different glass cleaners. Only one of these has really impressed me. Nonetheless, I still try generic brands in search for an inexpensive quality glass cleaner. I recently went to a local Dollar Tree store and purchased the Professional strength glass cleaner. I noticed …
Value Red: A Bargain Priced Bathroom Tissue
I had noticed Value Red Bathroom Tissue dozens of times in my local Safeway grocery store, but had never bought it. Its price had attracted my attention. At $1.29 for a 4-roll package I figured that it probably wasn’t very good. Other brands sold for two or three times …
Gatco Latitude II Bathroom Hook
I purchased this Gatco Bathroom hook for my bathroom and I really love it. When I was looking for a hook I was not just looking for one that would work well but I was also looking for one that looked attractive and I believe I found what …
Thermaltake Smart Case Fan Blue LED
I have recently purchased my Thermaltake fan, and couldn’t be happier with it, by smart fan it means you can manually adjust the fans speed, or you can allow it to adjust itself to the temperature inside your computer case. That’s 3 functions in one fan!
The 80mm model I …
Walgreens Home Elements Cookware Set
Looking for a pots and pan set? Well don’t buy the Home Elements Five Piece Cookware Set. Me and my wife just moved into a new house, and of course we needed some kitchen appliances, so when it came to looking for some pots and pans we dropped by Walgreens …
Mr Clean Magic Erason
I was skeptical when I first purchased a Mr. Clean magic eraser; however, after the first use I realized that this product means serious business. The magic eraser will remove virtually any hard-to-remove grime or stain. It works wonders in the bathtub (although a little bit of …
Vanish Shakti o2 (fabric stain remover)
Vanish Shakti o2 is a fabric stain remover. Around a month back, my white cotton shirt caught some red colour stain from a red colour leaking dress of mine. Actually my mother without knowing the fact that the red dress leaks colour, immersed my white cotton shirt and that …
Breville BJE200XL Juicer
For our wedding we received a juicer. I thought it was a bit cheesy for someone to give us a juicer. But then again, I was looking for money on our wedding day as well. So here is the deal about the Breville BJE200XL Juicer. It’s a lovely piece …
Payless Suede and Nubuck Cleaner
I don’t wear a lot of suede shoes because I know what a mess they will turn into during the winter months. Oddly enough, the suede is what’s really popular during winter, and I just don’t get it really, because it doesn’t make any practical sense to me. I …
Deni Electric Gravy Warmer
So, the holidays are upon me and the kitchen can be where I find myself running into the most chaos. Everyone is trying to get first dibs on the freshly made food and have a go at the gravy for either their mashed potatoes or turkey. What I’ve noticed …
Duromax XP4000S Generator
We thought it was a good idea to purchase a generator after dealing with weather-related power outages. The DuroStar DS4000S is awesome, and I’m more than impressed by it’s capabilities. Now, I want to lay out a few basics. You should know that it’s gas powered. …
Wearever Real Easy 12 Piece Cookware Set
I got some really nice things this Christmas, but my favorite gift was from my husband. He got me a great set of Wearever Real Easy Pots and Pans. These are so far the best pans I have ever owned. From what I can see they are of the …
Power House Disinfectant Spray
I love it when my house smells clean and looks clean. When I use PowerHouse’s Disinfectant Spray, I know that it is clean and it smells clean.

BioPure Reverse Osmosis Water Dispenser
BioPure Reverse Osmosis Water Dispenser is one of the most valuable item among many of my household items at home. Back many years ago I always have problems with the in-coming source of the water that comes into the house. I am not sure if it’s the problem with …
Sunbeam Gas Grill
Normally, when I write a review about a specific product like a gas grill, I go out of my way to include the model number so everyone knows exactly what I’m talking about. Today, I won’t be doing that.
The reason for that is because I don’t know the model …
Alen T300 Air Purifier
After I bought the Alen T100 compact air purifier for my son’s small bedroom and used it with much success, I decided to give the T300 a try for our very large bedroom. I am so glad I did as it has been the most effective air purifier …

ASK Series Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker
I am not a big fan of cooking and still a newbie in this household chore. As a result, I have been serving really tough meat to my family, until my mother suggested I use a pressure cooker. It turns out we have a new pressure cooker which our …
Zwipes Microfiber Cloth
I learned about microfiber cloths from a friend who bought his own set online. When I tested them I wanted to buy mine as well, and luckily I found Zwipes Microfiber Cloth by Zwipes for $20 online. It was a set of 36 microfiber cloths, which can be used …
Great Value Tall Kitchen Bags with Drawstrings (78 bags)
The last time I was at Wal-Mart, I needed trash bags, and after checking out the aisle, I decided to try out their house brand. I decided to do this because I was tired of the ones we were using, which was the Glad brand ForceFlex Bags.
I didn’t really …
The Laundry Pod
Being a stay at home mother I tend to end up doing most of the house chore. One of the house chores I do is laundry. It can become a real chore, after a while! I can’t say that I get a joy out of doing it but it …
As Seen On TV Bottle Caps
The As Seen On TV bottle caps seemed to be a genius product with the ability to seal unfinished pop cans preventing the gas to leave and make the drink un-enjoyable. Basically it is like a lid that goes on top of the can and sealing it. When the …
Hotpoint CIC642C Hob
I recently decided to redesign my kitchen, and as a result I found that I had to replace nearly all of my electrical appliances since most of the old ones didn’t fit in with the new design. One of the things I had to get was a new hob. …
Chamease Cloth
I gave up trying any products that are on infomercials along time ago. However, one of my birthday presents from my husband was a set of Chamease cloths. I didn’t really think that they would work as well as they are showed to work on television. …
Citra Clear Natural Window & Glass Cleaner Valencia Orange
I would purchase this superb window and glass cleaner more often than I do as of now if it wasn’t almost six dollars for a thirty-two ounce bottle! To me, that’s just too high of a price to pay for a window and glass cleaner. I wait for a …
Yankee Candle Hazelnut Coffee Wax Tart
I’m a huge fan of Yankee Candle so when was given the opportunity to try some new (to me) varieties I jumped at in, choosing a wax tart called Hazelnut Coffee as I’m a big lover of anything coffee flavoured/scented. Â When it arrived through the post I knew I …
CleanDr 60601 00 Microfiber Cleaning Cloth
I bought CleanDr 60601 00 Microfiber Cleaning Cloth for $10 online, weighing 4.34 oz. Here is my review.
These cloths have the measurements of 9.5 x 4.5, so they are pretty much the same as many other typical rags. But I can say I like them a lot since …
Seventh Generation Multi Surface Disinfecting Cleaner
I’ve always been nervous to use the very strong cleaners with hazardous materials warnings on them, however I never felt like the non-antibacterial cleaners were getting all the bacteria off my countertops etc. I came across this disinfecting cleaner which is 99.99% derived from botanical ingredients. That …
Dollar Tree Mesh Strainers
I was in need of some strainers for this dish I was preparing. I needed a fine strainer and was looking for something that I could use for many dishes. I was not looking to spend a lot of money on the strainers and went to a local dollar …
Soft ‘N Style Hand Mirror (Universal Product Code 087768000084)
The Soft ‘N Style Hand Mirror is a handy little mirror that cost me two dollars and ninety-nine cents. While I do like it a little better than my previous hand mirror, the Kingsley Lucite Hand Mirror, I wish that it would’ve had a second side to it that …
Kuerig B60 Single Serve Coffee Maker
Last winter, my brother got talking to me about pod coffee makers. He asked if I had one and I did not. He was thinking of getting one and wanted to know if I had a preference for one in particular. I told him I would look …
Airwick Oil Warmer
The Airwick Oil Warmer is an okay product. I have used plenty of oil warmers and this one made by Reckitt Benckiser is just another oil warmer. There is nothing that separates it from other oil warmers.
It warms oil just as advertised. I could give it rating of …
Febreze Fabric Refresher Allergen reducer
I use Febreze allergen reducer in my home. I have used it both on fabrics and in my cats litterbox when the odor gets to me. A few drops of this product is all you need to alleviate odors and also

The Oster 6642 Cube 12-speed blender runs on a powerful 450 watt motor. It is great for stirring party dips, chopping nuts, making mixed drinks, puree vegetables or even grinding coffee or crushing ice and much much more. It features a pulse button and a grate button for doing …
Multi- Blade Mandolin from Avon
Cool kitchen gadgets are always fun to play with, but if they don’t work as well as they could then they are no fun at all and just end up taking much needed counter space. I totally felt like the Multi-Blade Mandolin from Avon was a waste of …
EdgeStar DWP40 (25 in. Portable Dishwasher)
When I bought my house I didn’t think much about it not having a dishwasher. I didn’t think about it until after I moved in and dishes were piling up in the sink and the days I would be standing over the sink for hours washing each dish …
