Pizza Toy - 0 views

  •  
    Pizza Toy is the best gift for kids. So, I will start with the good. It is a huge and very durable floatie that is EXTREMELY comfortable. My whole family used it at the lake from the smallest in our family weighing about 60 pounds and the largest weighing almost 290 pounds with absolutely no issues. It did not lose air or anything. We had pumped it up days before using an air mattress pump and it kept its shape even after I used it to float down the Deschutes River in Bend, OR for a few hours (I also got stuck on a rock right below the water in the river and stayed there on the pizza float as I listened to the Slightly Stoopid concert going on at the Amphitheater for about an hour) and still did not feel the floatie lost any air. The crust on the pizza makes an excellent head pillow whilst floating and the toppings look cute as heck. The only real complaint I have is that it was very hard to try to paddle if you float in a river or lake and need to redirect yourself. This is just due to the size and general shape-with the top crust area being the biggest end. Also for some reason, the little plastic part that pops out to inflate the greater part of the pizza was defective and sticks out from the float itself. It looked half-way open when we got back home, and although it did not lose any air, it looks like it could fail at any time by opening up. The other issue I had with the floatie is that the pepperoni could be more red LOL. It currently has a burgundy/brown color. I would buy more if they weren't so expensive. It would be cool to connect them together since the bungee cords are quite durable.

Ring Light With Stand - 0 views

  •  
    Ring Light With Stand so lovely. This review is going to be a bit lengthy lol. First of all be prepared to receive absolutely NO instructions with this ring light whatsoever. You literally have to sit there and just play with it to figure out how to expand the tripod, how to snap the filters onto the ring light itself, how to mount the ring light onto the tripod once you've gotten the filters on, how to make sure everything is tightened down once fully assembled and finally, how to use the hot shoe camera and camera phone mounts that come with this set. (I haven't even begun to figure out how to use the Bluetooth remote that came with this set, and while I'm THRILLED this is included, it would be nice to have instructions on how to use it lol). This set includes TWO, I repeat TWO power cords, and one is for use in another country! This is great, but without instructions you'll be sitting there confused for a bit trying to figure out what to do with the darn thing. Very annoying! As far as the ring light itself, it's good. I'm a wig maker so I purchased the ring light to take better pictures of my mannequins wearing my wigs. I've attached 4 pics with this review, 2 pics taken with natural sunlight, and 2 taken with this ring light so you can decide for yourself which looks best. For me there wasn't a ton of difference. Natural sunlight looks just as beautiful as the ring light to be honest. The ring light did create more definition in the HAIR itself, but because of the ring light's brightness I lost definition in the mannequin. This kind of evened things out for me in terms of deciding which lighting, natural or ring light, is best for MY particular needs. I did go ahead and give this ring light 5 stars. Why? Certainly not because of the great instruction manual that came with it (scathing sarcasm). Because of the PRICE. Name brand ring lights of this size are literally hundreds of dollars, and I got this one for just a little ove

Wireless Charger - 0 views

  •  
    Wireless Charger was the 4th purchase I made in my attempt to find a wireless charger for my iPhone X in an Otterbox Defender case. The first three were returned because none of them worked. I finally discovered mine worked on my mother's wireless charger, so I searched until I found that exact model. It was $40, and I thought I'd put it off a little while. I'm glad I did because just a couple weeks later, I saw this as a deal of the day for $8.49. When I read the description, it said how thick the case could be for the charger to still work, so before I bought it, I went to Otterbox to find out how thick my Defender case is. (It was too hard to measure accurately since it's two pieces, and the sides make it difficult to get a good measurement of just the thickness between the phone and charger.) They had a hard time tracking down the exact information, but after a while, someone came back to me with a measurement. I was disappointed; it turned out to be a good bit thicker, at least 50% to my recollection than the charger allowed. Finally, I said to heck with it. For $8.49 (and the great ease of Amazon returns), I figured I'd give it a try. I'm so glad I did! It works perfectly! My phone charges quickly, and it doesn't overheat, which it does with the wireless charger built into my car. i have never been disappointed in an Anker product, and this one is no exception to that. Great experience. Thank you!

Digital Scale For Body Weight - 0 views

  •  
    I've finally got a Digital Scale For Body Weight that isn't annoying - I've had several scales from various stores and they all invariably give a different weight almost every time I step on. I could step on and off four or five times in a row and get three or four different weights - and not just by a fraction but by a pound or more. This one is different! It weighs consistently every time. It comes with little extra pads to level it, which assures its quality and accurateness. I like the look and it's a bit bigger than the chain store ones. And it did not cost any more than I've paid in those stores. Overall, I have to say this is the best scale, by far, that I've ever owned. I highly recommend it.

Best Dual Dash Cam - 0 views

  •  
    Great Best Dual Dash Cam especially at this price point for front and rear continuous recording and excellent pictures. Installed it two weeks ago and it's automatic. I used a high quality 32GB SD card, formatted it in the camera, and presto! Both front and rear videos are of nice quality. A recent accident where another driver pulled into me (he admitted fault to everyone but his insurance company denied full responsibility) prompted me to get this camera. After tons of research, I selected this one and am glad I did. It's easy to install and is user friendly. I recommend this product.

Glass Teapot With Infuser - 0 views

  •  
    This is a stunning Glass Teapot With Infuser. Light and strong. Very well made, and the blooming tea is so pretty. However, the angle of the spout is the downfall. It's built-in such a way that if you fill it up to the top (or close to the top), the spout also fills (and will overflow). I bought this as a gift for my mom but she won't use it much as she typically fills the teapot up and then carries it to the table. As it's designed, she has to put the teapot on the table where she'll be sitting and then fill it with water. You can get around this by not filling it all the way, but you'll be losing about 20% of potential tea volume. I was disappointed in this feature as otherwise, this is a beautiful set. The company contacted me and told me about a new design!!! They did this without prompting from me. They offered to send me a new teapot, and actually sent not just a teapot, but some tea and a warmer. It's a very nice teapot now, they fixed the design flaw, and I'm extremely happy with the company's customer service. Highly recommend them!!!

Wireless Gaming Mouse - 0 views

  •  
    Wireless Gaming Mouse is the best product. Before I bought the G903 with the hero 16k sensor, I almost bought the original G903 because it was heavily discounted at $65, while this was discounted at $100. However, I did my research and found out that this model has significantly more battery life than the original; 140 hours of battery with the lights on, compared to 24 hours with the lights on. Crazy! I was buying this mouse for a newly built PC that I was going all out on, and was coming from a laptop and a basic laptop mouse. Although those don't have cool RGB effects or buttery smooth sensors, they do have battery life going for them, so having literal months of a battery from a single AA battery was what I was used to. Obviously 140 hours is nowhere close to a month, however, it's still plenty for me, as you can just plug this in for charging at night when it starts to get low. Aside from the battery, The DPI buttons are useful for switching from desktop to gaming sensitivities. The software also lets you program the buttons to have different functions depending on what software you're using,, making lightroom shortcuts very nice with this mouse.

Hair Bands Styles - 0 views

  •  
    Hair Bands Styles is a very good band. I was a little worried that these wouldn't stay put on my head - I have a slightly smaller-than-average head and slick hair. Fortunately, these headbands did not disappoint. Not only do they stay put, but the material actually looks much more high-quality than the pictures may suggest. Definitely a great deal, in my opinion. The packaging was nice, arrived quickly, and the headbands arrived without defect. Note: When I was "researching" the best headband option, I came across several identical reviews across different headband listings (across the various styles/combinations/sets of headbands), as if they were copy/pasted into other similar listings. The seller differs in some of the listings (ex/ Adecco LLC vs DRESHOW vs Elacucos), despite identical stock photos. It looks like materials and styles vary, too, (based on reviews and up-close photos), which may impact both their appearance and the ability of the headbands to stay in place. SO, just so there's no confusion, I purchased the following: ELACUCOS: 4 Pack Women Headband Boho Floral Style Criss Cross Head Wrap Hair Band, Set 1

Window Curtain Panel - 0 views

  •  
    So I have been updating my room for some time. I have been searching for Window Curtain Panel for about a month. I didn't realize how hard it would be. I have p/u curtains from ross, Marshalls, target all have gone back. I finally found some actually on overstock/wayfair. I did a google search and found them on amazon and MUCH CHEAPER same brand. I read reviews and was skeptical thinking the value would be different. So glad I went ahead and bought them. I wanted 3 panels for each window but only was able to buy 4 pks at a time. this is the policy. I used 2 on one window and 3 on the other 2 and it is perfect. 1. Pearl black color - perfect I was skeptical and wanted charcoal and this is exactly what the pearl black looks like. The sheer gives it a great look. 2. Grommet fit right into my 5/8 rods. 3. length was true. 4. Blackout - OMG I put these up at 2p.m. and it looks like its 8 in here. 5. weight - the curtains are thick enough. they appear they can keep out air for windows. I absolutely love them and my search is over. I was worried about them looking childish in my room but they feel real glam.

Fit Simplify Resistance Loop Exercise Bands - 0 views

  •  
    Fit Simplify Resistance Loop Exercise Bands is a good one. Thanks to a number of damaged and arthritic joints, I've been to physical therapy a lot. On some of those occassions, they gave me exercise bands so that I could continue to work at home. So, I have a few of those "freebie" exercise bands lying around the house. They did the job, but they always felt thin and cheap to me. Those bands came on a roll and the therapist would simply cut a length of stretch band from the spool, then tie the two ends together to form a ring. Thus, they always had an annoying knot in them which sometimes made them uncomfortable to use.

Blackhead Extractor Vacuum - 0 views

  •  
    This blackhead Extractor Vacuum works. I bought it (male). Then my wife saw it and was like. No way! I pay over $100 to have a girl at the spa do that to my face. I said. Try it out. She did and she said it was the same. Boom. I just saved $100 a month. I used it too. It works great. Actually today my nose pealed totally, it has been about 5 days after using it the last time. My nose is clear of blackheads. Great buy for a great price.

BigMouth Donut Coffee Mug - 0 views

  •  
    Now if only you could eat the mug, BigMouth Donut Coffee Mug would be perfect, because the mug looks delicious! Bought this for my sister for Christmas as kind of a gag gift but it is actually really cool. She likes different kinds of coffee mugs and this one did just fine to her liking. It looks really cool but I have a feeling that one tip over and it is done-zo. It is a lot bigger mug than I expected it is kind of hard to stir the sugar and cream into the coffee because of the middle section but isn't a huge problem. The mug looks really cool and if a cool stocking stuffer or small gift to give to someone.

Contemporary Floating Home in Seattle - 0 views

  • Contemporary Floating Home in Seattle From Vandeventer + Carlander Architects comes a modern home design located on Lake Union, right in the city center.How fascinating it is to have a house on a lake! It would be interesting to know what the address of this home is. You probably did not see this coming, but there are a lot of similar floating houses on Lake Union. In fact, if I recall correctly, Tom Hanks owned one in the movie “Sleepless in Seattle”. This particular project was meant as a contemporary looking building with plenty of entertainment space. As you can see in the pictures below, there are many decks and the large floor to ceiling windows allow great views of the city in every direction. This is not exactly the most intimate crib, but it’s okay, as long as the owners don’t mind.
