This Sunbeam Water Cooler is very handy. It features hot and cold water and a tiny fridge on the bottom. I use it mostly for cold water, though. I don't even have the hot water part hooked up because I just don't have the occassion to use it, so I thought I'd save the energy and just not hook it up. My son uses the bottom fridge to keep his soda and juice boxes cold and really likes...

The Hoover Windtunnel is a pretty powerful vacuum. This is a bagless, upright vacuum. It has setting to change the height of the rollers to the height of your carpet, a light for dark areas or corners, a removeable hose for doing edges & furniture and an attachment "nook". My favorite feature on this vacuum is that it is bagless. We have pets and tend to get a lot of fur on the ca...

The Presto Poplite Hot Air Popcorn Popper is a great way to cut the fat out of your popcorn. It pops hot, yummy popcorn in just a couple of minutes using only hot air. You don't have to add any oil, which I love. You can melt butter on the side to pour over top or you can eat it just plain. Personally, I add a little butter and a little salt for flavor, but certainly it is a whole lot less ...

This microwave popper by Presto is endorsed by Orville Reddenbacher. In my opinion, this popcorn popper is just okay. How it works is you have a large, bowl like popper with a vented lid. You have to buy these extra paper filter type things. This is where you put the popcorn and oil. These sit in the bottom of the popper. From there you put the popper in your microwave. According to the directi...

What a disappointment this product is! The Littermaid Elite Max is a self cleaning litter box for cats. This Elite Max is the higher end of the self cleaning boxes that Littermaid makes. I purchased it because we have 3 cats. This product was supposed to handle a multiple cat household. Well, I'm here to tell you, it doesn't! The premise of never having to clean the litter box again is ...

This Squirrel Be Gone Bird Feeder is squirrel proof! If you love to feed and watch the birds in your yard during the winter, but the squirrels eat all the seed without giving the birds a chance, this may be your solution. I personally have bought so many so called squirrel proof feeders in the past that haven't worked, but this seems to do the trick! This feeder works on a sping. When a squ...

First Nature Bird Bath and Waterer is a real neat item. This is really different, in my opinion. You can have a bird bath and waterer in one. This can be hung from a tree or a hook. In my case, I use a double shepard's hook. One hook has a bird feeder and the other hook hangs this waterer/bath. The birds just seem to love it! They can perch on the side and have a drink or take a little bird...

The Logitech LX5 is a really nice wireless mouse. This mouse has a receiver that you plug right into the USB on your desktop or laptop. This is so much nicer than the wireless mouse (mice?) of a few years back. They had the big receiver that you had to sit on your desk. This did not make it convienet for a laptop, in my opinion. I have been using this mouse for about 2 weeks now and I've be...

The "boys" (my two male kittens) enjoy this Sisal Cat Scratching Post. Cats and kittens love to sharpen their claws. Our kittens are no exception. I found that they were using the side of my couch, my carpet and a number of other things in my house to sharpen their claws. I didn't want to have them declawed, because frankly, I think that is inhumane, but that is another topic. So,...

All of my pets seem to enjoy drinking from the Le Bistro self waterer. I have a dog and a couple of outside cats that use this product. It has a 5 gallon jug that you fill up and then turn the jug upside down so the water fills up the drinking dish and keeps it full until the jug is empty. I have found that my pets enjoy drinking out of this, but I have also found that they will only drink out ...

The Ware Two Level Kitty Condo works well if your cat or cats are willing to use it. Well, cats can be picky. I have 2 cats that refuse to come inside the house during the winter. They love being outside. I purchased this condo for them in hopes that they would have a warm place to sleep in the winter. I put it on our patio and only one of the two cats will actually use it. And, the one cat tha...

The Back to Basics Ice Shaver is a really fun snow cone machine. This is the third one of these type products I have tried. It is by far the best of them in my opinion. It is so easy to use. You dump some ice cubes in the top. Lock the lid in place and it shaves the ice for you. You can make one or two snowcones at a time. I like the fact that I have used it multiple times now and have had...

The Digital Concepts Converter Drive SD/MMC Reader/Writer is an amazingly simple product to use! I was having some problems downloading pictures and movies from my digital camera. I went shoping for a product that could help me out with that. This item plugs right in to your USB port on your laptop or Desk Top. You then insert your SD card in the drive and just like that you can up load yo...

This Premier Paper Cutter is a very handy product to have if you have a home business or if you do crafts or homeschool. There are, of course, many other uses for it as well. I have a home office and I sell quite a few books. I mostly use this paper cutter to cut cardboard to wrap around my books when I am shipping them. I love just being able measure the book, then measure the cardboard on the...

Dow Spray'n Wash Laundry Stain Remover is a fairly effective product. I like this product. I can't say it impresses me 100%, but it works on stains fairly well. I have a nine year old son who seems to wear his food, lol! I have found that if he removes the clothes right away and I treat the stain with Spray'n Wash, must of it will come out in the wash. I have found that tomato based...

I love, love, love Oxi Clean Versatile! Not only does this great product help get stains out of your laundry, it cleans carpets, patio furniture, decks and a whole lot more! This is a nice, large 6 lb tub. It comes in powder form. I usually use some (about a scoop) in every load of laundry I do. It takes out the stains wonderfully without having to pre-treat. I have also used this on my area ru...

Purex Liquid Laundry Detergent in the Fresh Scent with Renuzit really makes your clothes smell wonderful. This is about the best smelling laundry deterget that I have found. It is a lower priced product than some of the others on the market. I'm not sure if it cleans quite as well as Tide or some of the other major, high priced brands, but I have found it works really quite well. And the sm...

Who likes to clean a litter box or cat pan? Not me! I use the Van Ness Cat Pan Liners in the Giant Size and I never have to touch the litter. I line the bottom of my cat's litter box with one of these liners, fill it up with litter and I'm done. When it comes time to change the litter a few days later, I lift out the bag, close it with the twist tie that is included and start over. I ne...

Tidy Cat Odor Control Litter for Multiple Cat Households is a pretty good product. If you have more than one cat, you know that there can be a lot of odor coming from the cat pan. I have not found a product on the market that controls those odors 100%. This product works as well as any, but nothing controls all of the odor unless you change the pan daily. I have found that this litter comes out...

Tidy Cats Scoop Crystals Blend is a product to use when you want a clumpable litter. I originally bought this litter to use in my self cleaning cat box. I later found out that you can't use crystals with this self cleaning box. So, now I am using this in our regular cat pan. I don't normally use a clumping litter, but this is nice. The crystals have a dehydrating property that helps the...
