MOKOQI Magnetic Levitation Floating Globe with LED Light Review - Great Gift!

This is MOKOQI Magnetic Levitating Globe with LED Light, Cool Tech Gift for Men Father Boys, Birthday Gifts for Kids, Floating Globes World Desk Gadget Decor in Office Home/Display Frame Stand




I wasn't really sure what to expect when I purchased this, other than it looked really cool and might be a good way to teach my child about places on the globe. When we first opened it, it was much smaller than I expected, but that was just poor reading on my part. The globe portion is only about 3in around, so it's a little hard to see everything, but I can use a map online or another source to supplement. To get it started, just plug the the "c" shaped holder. Now, there's a sort of sweet spot you have to find to get the globe to levitate. Once it does, you can spin the globe, just watch it, or play with it. This would be a great in an office setting or for more mature kids. It's really awesome, but a lot of jumping on action around it makes it click up to the magnet at the top. I highly recommend this! It had all the adults at Christmas playing with it. Lol!

3M Personal Protective Equipment - Max comfort, high quality, great design/features

This is 3M Personal Protective Equipment 1113130 DBI-SALA ExoFit NEX Construction Harness, Alum Back/Side D-Rings




The Exofit NEX is hands down worth every penny. Your safety is paramount when working at heights and your level of comfort with comparability of loading your tools on the harness go hand and hand. If you are uncomfortable it distracts you from your primary focus on performing your job... there's simply none of that here. The ease of being able to quickly put on the harness and exit it is a nice feature with the locking quick connect buckles. Quick and easy adjustment is a savior when working in different weather as well, cool spring morning with a hoodie tends to be a bit more bulky and a quick turn of a dial gives you the extra room you need to be snug yet not constricted in your own device.
I am a Union Ironworker and highly recommend the NEX over the Exo Ironworkers make. This harness has more padding and more features to assist to make a change to our ever changing environments. Definitely worth every penny to invest in something that we put our lives on the line with. Not a single complaint here. Great work DBI/Sala on another outstanding safety product.

DEWALT (DWMT75049) Mechanics Tool Set Review - Toolset you'll pass down for generations, might be too much for light handyman work

This is DEWALT (DWMT75049) Mechanics Tool Set, 192-Piece




I just had my tool box stolen with a zillion years of bought-one-at-a-time tools. Looking out for tool sets that were NOT a conglomeration of ultra cheap pieces or odd twenty cent devices included just to bump up the piece count, I found this set, and it seems that someone actually consulted experienced users because this assortment has very little in the way of crap or useless "homeowner" tools. I'd say that, with this set, and a new pickle fork, I'm about two thirds of the way back to normal for hand tools.


Other pros: no color coding, only three useless spark plug sockets, no tricky as-see-on-TV stuff, intelligent selection of Torx and Allen sockets, good choice of size adapters and u-joint couplers, largest sockets are 1 inch and 24 mm, no Whitworth! Just kidding about the British stuff: they've learned.

Cons: Personally I'd like some level of tactile marking to differentiate metric from SAE, but other than that: pretty much nothing.

Even the blow-molded case seems sturdy, but I HAD to dump everything into a steel toolbox because blow molded cases are just silly.

Delta Faucet Leland Pull Down Kitchen Faucet Review - Great faucet!

This is Delta Faucet Leland Pull Down Kitchen Faucet with Pull Down Sprayer, Kitchen Sink Faucet, Faucets for Kitchen Sinks, Single-Handle, Magnetic Docking Spray Head, Arctic Stainless 9178-AR-DST




There are 3 spray features: regular, multi.stream spray and the single jet spray with a water force field around it. Love that last feature for getting rid of those stuck on food pieces or dried gravy.

Keep in mind what ever setting you leave the spray on is what will come on next time to best to always switch back to regular. So many times I left it on spray and made water mess.
I love love this faucet with the pull out hose, soooo soooo easy to clean the sink or to fill my water filtering pitcher or to fill a pot on the counter.
I had a family friend install this so I wouldn’t know anything much about installing. But you can try to ask I’ll try my best.
It’s easy to clean and just looks beautiful.
I highly recommend it!

Tohlar Kitchen Faucets with Pull-Down Sprayer Review - Great product, horrible instructions

This is Tohlar Kitchen Faucets with Pull-Down Sprayer, Spring Commercial Single Handle Pull Down Sprayer Kitchen Sink Faucet (Matte Black)


 For the price, I dont think there is a better deal out there. Its nice heavy duty but the faucet functions nice, smooth off and on, nice spray, easy to use, great pressure and mobility. That being said, the instructions that come with it are awful. I read through them and had concerns but followed them anyway as many times I have not followed instructions for the same reason and ended up paying for it. But this time I paid for following them. They tell you to install the faucet and mount it securely first then try and screw in the two hookups afterwards which is not only super awkward but also potentially impossible. I got to that step and thought "Who knows maybe they have a method to get them in easy?" There isnt. Dont follow the instructions in the steps they provide. Screw in the hot and cold hoses before you do anything else. Even without all the hardware attached and trying to do it from below the sink, screwing those hoses in is tricky. So get them attached to the faucet first, then run the giant mounting piece up them and scew it into the faucet, stick all of it through the sink hole and then attach the washers and metal holder/screw in from the bottom. Basically do step 3 first then 1 and 2 in the instructions. If you do it that way its incredibly easy to install. But if you follow them in the actual order provided you may never get it hooked up. I have only used it for a day, so may update later. But thus far the faucet is great.

iTouchless 16 Gallon Dual-Deodorizer Round Open Top Trash Can and Recycle Bin Review - Great, solid dual can

This is iTouchless 16 Gallon Dual-Deodorizer Round Open Top Trash Can and Recycle Bin, 60 Liter Stainless Steel Commercial Grade Trashcan, 10 Inch Opening good for Home, Restaurant, Restroom, Office



It’s a lidless full size garbage bin that doesn’t crumple under a hard stare— which is exactly what I was looking for. I have no idea why such a thing is so difficult to find, but it is. I found twenty different lidded bins with everything from a voice activated lid to your standard foot operated one... But what if I want to throw in a three-pointer from across the room?


Sure yours might come with a dent in the side but just exchange it for another— the manufacturer has limited control over damage that occurs during shipping.

There’s a nifty looking trap on the side of the lid that you can fill with charcoal filters to keep it smelling fresh. Something I’ll never use and I’m sure hardly works in the first place (it could be nice to fill with lemon rinds or potpourri from time to time).

GLAD GLD-74507 Extra Capacity Stainless Steel Step Trash Can Review - It's more than just a trash-can

This is GLAD GLD-74507 Extra Capacity Stainless Steel Step Trash Can with Clorox Odor Protection of The Lid, Fits All 20G Garbage Waste Bags, 20 Gallon




Yes, it is just a trash-can. But to me it is so much more than that. See, we had another brand before we got this bad-boy. The other model provided no end of frustration--especially when it came time to remove the full bag. To say it was difficult to remove would be an understatement.

BUT this beauty, well, this beauty is a breeze to remove full bags. Pop up the "wings" to release the bag then let them flop down. Now just pull the bag up! If it is really loaded, flip up the wings, then life up the top of the can (the black "edge") and lift up the bag. Easy-peasz.

Not made of the heaviest gauge metal but it arrived with no dents and should last as long as we have this kitchen to place it in.

Do yourself a favor and get this can.
