I am not a painter as a matter of fact I hate to paint but for financial reasons I do my own instead of paying to have it done. I have tried many brands of paint over the years from the very best  to the very cheap and I think that the Kilz paints are some of the best I have ever used. They are sold exclusively at Walmart and are very reasonably priced. When we bought our house eight...

 The Sunbeam Steam Master LX is a wonderful iron, that is if you can refer to  ironing as woderful. This iron does make it a more pleasurable and easier experience. There are many features that I like about this iron. The one reason I like it so much is for its steaming qualities. With my old iron I would have to press really hard and use spray starch to get wrinkles out of fabrics su...

 I really do like this Maytag dishwaster. I have owned several different dishwasher of all brands over the years and this one ranks at the top. It has 4 cycles which are rinse,light, normal and heavy . I can say the one I use most often is normal and it seems to do just fine no matter how big or tough the load. It also has heat and air dry and an auto stop when you open the door for those ...

I have bought many pairs of Vans over the years. I have a 32 year old son who I bought them for when he was in high school and that is all he wanted to wear. I now have an 18 year old grandson who also really likes them and is all he will wear and has worn for the past five years. I believe they are one of the more reasonalbly priced sports shoes on the market today. They are comfortable and du...

It  goes from his humble beginnings to date. It makes you question your beliefs and attitudes towards racism from early times to the present. It gives ...

 The Dyson vacuum cleaner  is one of the best appliances I have ever purchased. If you notice the price I stated I gave for it you will see this is not the usual price. I got one of the best deals I have ever gotten when I bought this. Even if I had to have give full price for this vacuum it would have been worth every penny. It is so easy to use and has so much more suction power tha...

  "The Road" by Cormac MCCarthy  was in the beginning a hard book to catch the interest of. I considered it a hard read for me, not that it didn't have a fascinating plot but the fact that it was not written in a form that I had ever been familiar with. The story is about a father and son and their journey to find safety and a place to settle and most of all to keep his ...

  I was given the Santa Fe Qusesadilla Maker as a birthday gift. I had been wanting one as I love making and eating qusesadillas .  It made my job of making them so much easier and they also came out so much better. It is a very attractive appliance and I have no problem leaving it on my counter top and it doesn't take up a lot of space so it is there ready whenever I need it. It ...

  The Lexmark Optra E laster printer is the best printer I have ever used. I have owned several different printers and this is by far the most efficient one. The speed of it is fantastic and the quality of the print is superb. This is not one of the newer models but if the newer ones are as good or better than this one then it will be well worth your money. The paper tray holds a large amo...

The Kitchen Aid Superba refrigerator is not one of the favorite appliances I have ever owned. Although there are feature I do really like it could use some improvement. I do like the Aqua Sense water filter system with the replaceable filters but do be aware that these replacements cost around $40 and if you use it a lot you will have to replace them evey year to ensure clean filtered water. I ...

The KitchenAid mixer has been around a long time and there is a reason why. They are what I consider the best mixers on the market. They are effiecient  and with care will last a life time. I really like the way the attachments are so easy to put on and remove. Several attachments come with the mixer but you can also buy extra ones that you think you might use most often or for those speci...

This toaster is a favorite of mine. It will either toast regular bread or texas size toast. It will also toast bagels and larger breads. It has many heat settings so that you can have your toast as brown or light as you please. The toaster heats up fast and is very quick so you don't have to wait forever on those mornings you are running late.  The one thing I do not like about this is...

  The nutrisystems program is a very effective and  easy wey to lose weight. If you follow the meal plan as directed you will see the pounds and the inches start to come off rapidly. Like any other diet you have to get used to the foods and the portions. If I hadn't been overeating I wouldn't have needed this program to start with.  The food is filling and you can add you...

  Clorox clean up is an allpurpose bleach based cleaner. I have used it in the bathroom , kitchen and outdoors on vinyl siding. I have also use it to clean tennis shoes, white ones that is. It does a fantastic  job on all of these surfaces. I like to use it in my kitchen, I have white couter top that tend to stain very easily and clorox cleanup will remove the stains by just spraying ...

  The Garmin StreetPilot C330 GPS system is a portable GPS system with preloaded detailed maps, touchscreen display, voice prompts and very vivid graphics. I like this system very much, I am the world's worst person at  finding my way around. I can't count the number of times I have been lost. That can be a scary thing especially at night. I can not tell you what a sense of re...

   The Uniden 2.4ghz cordless phone with digital answerer is a very good product. I have several phones in my house and this is the one we always reach for. I have had this phone for quite some time and I have only replaced the battery one time. I like that it has so many features, such as, the voice volume which you can set  from very low for those people who seem to scream into...

   Dish Network, where do I start. Not a very good system in my opinion. Sure you get a lot of channels if you are willing to pay the price, most of which are not fit to watch. Every channel that you get that might be of any interest  and also you local channels all cost you extra. The thing I dislike the most about this system is the on screen guide. If you want to find out what...

I have been experiencing allergy symptoms since I was a kid and believe me that has been a long time ago. I have tried many different types of allergy relief medications, some prescription and some over the counter and Zyrtec Liquid seems to work faster and better than any I have ever tried. There have been some that seem to help the allergy sumptoms but made me feel so out of it that I could h...

There are 3 steps to this product. The first one is to clean your face and exfoliate dead skin cells and other bacteria, the second steps cleans the pores and removes excess oil . The ingredie...

My Kenmore thirty inch slide in electric range has some good points and some bad points. The best feature for me is that it is self-cleaning and it does a very good  job of that. Of course there is still some work to be done by hand but it makes it so much easier. The top raises up so you can easily clean up anything that spilled over into the holes of the element pans. The surface underne...
