I got this blender when my Oster finally gave up on me after 10 years. Not exactly as I could’ve just changed the blades which were worn out. The machine was working fine. Unfortunately, these were not manufactured anymore, I decided to just upgrade my kitchen …

We recently purchased the Asian Fusion 10″ Bamboo Steamer from Bed Bath and Beyond for about $20. This steamer is a great buy because it is easy to use, easy to clean and easy to store. The unit consists of a lid, and two layers which can be used …

I bought Philips HR1351/C Hand Blender online by paying Rs. 1500 (approax $30). My main purpose was for pureeing food items for my baby. I am using it extensively for blending and pureeing and as of now I am extremely satisfied with it. Its chopping function is also working …

If you’re familiar with multitools, then I’m sure you’ve heard of the Leatherman brand name. For someone who is in the U.S. Army, I know how useful and valuable such a tool can be. The model of multitool that I use is the Leatherman Sidekick. This particular model suits …

I needed a new bed pillow and went to Walmart to find one that was comfortable but that didn’t cost a lot of money. I found the Canopy Continuous Comfort Firm Pillows in a center bin in the store. I felt the pillow and it felt soft enough without …

I have a sweet tooth and a love of novel kitchen gadgets, so when I saw the Donut Express by Emson, I figured it was definitely a win-win situation. If you are unfamiliar with the Donut Express, it is a nifty bake ware set that lets …

At first I thought the price tag carried by this little contraption was a bit on the high side, and almost balked at buying it. But the whole family loves a quick and easy slushie in summer time, so I went ahead, broke down and bought one at …

I my house, scrubbing pads are used a lot when cleaning. They are used to clean the bathroom, and we’ll use a different scrubbing pad when washing the dishes, and pots and pans. However, many of them, including some brand named ones tend to go bad very quickly; and …

After my old curtains became faded and old, I needed to replace them with new ones. I have a large slider in my dining area, and it gets a lot of sun shining through. The slider is on the back side of the house, and it faces …

Before they came out with the Pledge Multi Surface cleaner we just used the regular pledge. We didn’t like it because it would leave streaks on everything that we cleaned. One Day while we where watching TV and they had a commercial about the pledge multi surface cleaner saying …

I have a lot of blankets and I was looking for a way to be able to organize them. I purchased this Kennedy bag over a month ago and I really love it. I can certainly say that it makes it a lot easier to keep up …

I bought three of these Air Wick Nite Lights not to long ago. The nite light is a scented oil warmer. The fragrances are sold separately. The nite light is clear, so with each colored scent you use is what color the nite light will be. The nite light …

The First Force Concentrated Ultra dishwashing liquid is a fairly reliable dishwashing detergent. First of all, I like the Mountain Berry scent of this dishwashing liquid. It smells good, yet not overpowering, unlike a lot of detergents in its class.
A dishwashing soap with a strong …

I like incense sometimes for freshening up the bedroom on warm and humid days and in particular I like fruity sweet smells for the summer. When I was looking through the incense selection at World Market I was specifically hoping to find cherry scented incense. I was remembering …

I have tried all the Liquid Soaps in the Avon Senses range. They are all ok, but some are nicer than others. This one is nice but I would say that it is very much middle of the road. It is just alright in my eyes.
This comes in a …

I purchased a Magic Bullet Blender with Juicer for $49.99. I have mixed reviews about my Bullet. It is attractive and somewhat convenient, but not as efficient as I’d hoped it would be.
I love the appearance of my Bullet. It is silver and very slender. It looks like …

Growing up in my mothers home, pine sol was a cleaner that was used quite often. I haven’t used it in quite a few years and wanted to try it out again. I couldn’t really remember its cleaning power, but I did remember the scent. I purchased a bottle …

I have used the Ecolab Soap Dispenser and found it to be a very aesthetic and effective soap dispenser. Please let me share my thoughts about this useful product.
I would like to start this review by saying that I like the way this soap dispenser is designed. I think …

I can’t even believe I had to acquire a product like this, but with kids in the household, I guess it was an inevitable problem that I’d have to deal with eventually. I guess it’s better to be sooner rather than later, when they are older and know better …

I like to do crafts, and while I can do a lot of different crafts, I can’t embroider, so I bought this kit to help me. It says on the front that the kit contains many things, including iron on transfers and all the things one would need to …

The Hoover Steam Vac Duel is a superior machine with great cleaning power. It is easy to use and leaves carpets clean and near original condition (depending on the age and wear and tear of the carpet of course). It is light weight and easy to maneuver. …

We often pop into our nearest Wilko store. The large high street retailer stocks a wide selection of DIY goods and home accessories. I often buy hair care products, soap, toothpaste, denture cream and cleaning products from Wilkinson’s because they offer good value for money. I have a large …

My garbage disposal accumulated a very harsh smell and I wanted a way to be able to clean and freshen it up. I have tried several products for cleaning it but I have to say that this is by far one of the most effective. I first …

Cleaning the toilet is not easy especially if I don’t have the proper tools and cleansing stuff in aiding me to properly clean the stubborn marks in the toilet bowl. I started using Harpic when my husband and I transferred to a new apartment and the new place …

Since there is little else to do a New England winter (other than shovel snow and painfully stare out the window at mounds of snow just waiting for the return of spring), I try to become most active in my hobby of knitting. This year, my focus is …

Pleasant is the word that I would use to describe this scented candle from Renwick. The apple cinnamon scent isn’t overpowering, and that’s a good thing. The scent sort of stays in the background as it occupies a room. By that, I mean, when I first walk into the …

Spic and Span Antibacterial Spray Cleaner is a good choice to use on cleaning surfaces that need to be disinfected and free of bacteria.
I have a habit of cutting up raw veggies on the counter top, right after I have cut up an uncooked whole chicken, and I sometimes …

I got one of these Panasonic vacuums because I heard that they were pretty good. I chose this one in particular partly because it doesn’t take up as much space as other vacuum cleaners. I guess the size isn’t that much smaller actually. To me, it is just only …

I’ve been a pretty loyal shopper of Brawny paper towels in recent years, and the reason has been that I love that their towels can be broken apart at what is considered a half-size, so that you can utilize a paper towel that is considered normal size, or half …

My mom bought us a Kitchen Aid Bar Blender, not the professional type, but the home bar blender. It cost a little over $100 and is much heavier weight that a regular kitchen blender. I will have to admit it does a pretty good job at crushing and blending …

I’m not too sure why I bought this cleaning product; it’s unlike me to buy wipes or specialized cleaning products, a bucket of water and some bleach is good enough for me, but I think after using these Clorox wipes it’s worthy of a review.
So basically it’s a tube …

I bought this last year when I bought my World Market Amalfi pool loungers. The loungers were a lovely color when I bought them. However, I live on the west coast of California and the salty air and humidity is really tough on wood. I decided based on the …

The WatchBuddy Christmas Tree Christmas Theme Wall Clock is a wall clock that I purchased a couple of years ago for fourteen dollars and nineteen cents. It’s still available today, and if I hadn’t bought it years ago and came across it today, I wouldn’t buy it again. It’s …

Glade - Holiday Collection: Homemade Gingerbread is another one of my favorite seasonal scents. I honestly do not think that I could choose between this scent and the Peppermint Crush scent in naming my favorite season scent. Both are just so authentic and pleasant! This scent is precisely what …

When we got our income tax back, the hubby got a John Deere riding lawnmower, and I got my LG Glasstop stove. I think I was in shock for months! It was so nice to finally have a stove that cooked correctly and had everything that works.
I had used …

One lazy Sunday afternoon we decided to surf the Internet, we both use Laptop computers and often find things of interest to show to each other. I had just started looking at the new Nintendo games on the market and hubby was yelling me!
He had found exactly what we …

This is my least favourite scent in the Linen and Rooms Spray range. It just isn’t me and that could probably be because I don’t really like the smell of Lavender.
I didn’t really buy this as such. It came in a pack of 5 items for £5. I bought …

Since I spend a good part of my time baking, I thought it might be fun to try the Betty Crocker Bake & Fill cake pan set. The Bake &Fill comes with a tall pan, a base pan, and an insert pan. This set can be used …

I decided to give these cloths a try after I needed some kitchen towels and I was really amazed by how well these towels work. These clothes are sold in a package of three for 2 dollars. In my opinion the price is great and I don’t …

I was so tired of struggling with my old deep fryer due to frying fish and onion rings with batter which leaked into the fat and left crumbs that would burn to a crisp and spoil my cooking oil. So Santa brought me an early Christmas present this year in …

I will never buy this laundry detergent again. Half of the clothes I washed, I had to wash them again because the detergent was all over them. There were little white stuff all over the clothes and I couldn’t get them out. That has also got to be not …

I really don’t know what prompted me to get this stupid broom vacuum. Yes I called it stupid right in the first sentence, and it really deserves that word too because it was useless. Dirt Devil is usually pretty good as far as a company or brand name goes. …

I detest stains. I absolutely hate staining anything, clothing, carpets, anything at all that I like and that I do not want to replace. I actually do not believe that I am a messier eater than anyone else, but judging by the number of stains I get on my …

I bought the Honeywell Turbo Force fan, model HT-8700 over a year ago and I’ve been using it ever since. It’s the best fan in the world to me, and it only cost Canadian $50 plus tax.
I have been so used to using fans around me, especially …

I purchased this make-your-own quilt kit for my niece a couple years ago, and she had a great time putting it together. I have since purchased on to keep at my house for the daycare kids to work on when they come over. The kit comes with 48 …

This is one of the best smelling cleaning products I have tried in a long time. It is so easy to use. Just pull out a wipe and start dusting away for some marvelous results. I love the woody smell and the way the scent lasts. It is not …

I’m always suffering from a ridiculous amount of mosquito bites and, in extreme conditions, even ant bites and things of that nature, any time I head outside for more than twenty minutes at a time. And forget it if it’s a woodsy area, or an ill-kempt yard or a …

I buy laundry bars for my handwashing. I tried using Surf bar once but I swear I am not buying this product again. Surf made my hands so sore and my fingers were all aching after using this product. I highly recommend using gloves when you are using this …

The Crane Drop Shape Cool Mist Humidifier with the product model number EE-5301 retails for around forty-four dollars and ninety-nine cents. I have found this humidifier to be very effective when it comes to helping me be more comfortable when I’m suffering from a cold. I find that I’m …
