Wind me up Baby!
Today we’re reviewing a gift i received for Christmas, a Wind-Up LED Flashlight by MegaBrite. The concept is simple, instead of using batteries, you charge it up via a crank on the side and then use it at your will. Each flashlight has 3 LED bulbs in in and two settings, one [...]

Enough aerator love! Today I am reviewing the Neoperl Bubble-Stream Dual Flow Kitchen Aerator. This is a chrome finish aerator that allows the user to choose a .5GPM spray stream or 2.2GPM flow with the click of [...]

Sherman and Nemesis!
What a mouthful! You’d think the people at Simple Solutions could shorten that thing down but I guess some people don’t have the ability to edit themselves. We got a new dog about 1 month ago and as any dog owner can attest, a good stain and oder eliminator is a must.
