Xtech Electric Easy Handheld Steam Cleaner

The Xtech Electric Easy Handheld Steam Cleaner with 6 Different Attachments and 3 Additional Accessories is the first that I have ever tried a steam cleaner. I am still learning all the uses for it. All I had to do to begin learning is to fill it with water and plug it in.

so far I have tried it in two ways. I used it to steam my pants to get the wrinkles out. I hung up my pants and then used the attachment made for this and started steaming. It actually worked quite well. I was surprised. I don't plan to do this often but I like it better than ironing. (which I don't do often either)

The second thing I tried it on was my bathroom tub. My tub is white and it has gotten a bit yellowed on the bottom from the soap scum. I got the attachment with the squeegee and went at it. I had to go over it a couple of times but it really does look much better. I have never been able to get it off so now I am sold. I won't do this every week when I clean but I will definitely do it when I notice it is getting yellow again.

The next thing I plan to use it on is my range hood. I believe this will help me get it off without scrubbing. When I scrub it I scratched it and I hope this will help.

30 Ounce Yeti Tumbler Handle

I got the 30 Ounce Yeti Tumbler Handle because I got a Simple Modern 30 oz cup and it does not have a handle. This one is supposed to fit all the 30 oz Yeti type cups. It does not fit mine perfectly but it works. I am heading out on a trip tomorrow and I wanted to be able to use my cup to keep my drinks cold. What I found with my cup is that it is quite large around and with my neuropathy it is difficult to pick up and I was worried about dripping it and making a mess in my van. This is why I looked for a handle to go on it. I found this and ordered it.

The handle is large enough that my hand can get a really nice grip on it. It is sturdy too so it will not bend.

The top ring of the handle works well to grip my cup and I am confident that it will not slip out.

I recommend this if you are wanting a handle for your cup. Much better than a mess all over your vehicle.

Simple Modern Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel 30 ozTumbler with Lid

I got the Simple Modern Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel 30 ozTumbler with Lid to use in the van on a trip I was taking.

I got it in cotton candy pink and I love the color. As a breast cancer survivor pink is my new favorite color. I liked that there were lots of colors to choose from. And in pink, my husband won't try to take it.

It fits well in my cup holder of my minivan. I find that it is a little hard to grab a hold of as I am driving. I was worried about dripping it and spilling it. I bought a handle now to salve that problem. The finish isn't exactly slippery but not grippy either.

It does keep my drinks colder that the cups I get at the fast food places. I take it and pour it in here instead. I have not tried it with hot drinks at all.

I am disappointed with the lid. It is not spill proof. I would have expected a travel cup to have a lid that closes. The lid fits nice and tightly on the cup. It has a rubber seal. I am glad it has a little tab to help get it off. I just wish it had a slider thing or flip thing to close the lid when I am carrying it from the house. I have spilled some this way. Now, I don't fill it as full.

I have not tried the more expensive cups like this but if you are looking for an affordable option, this would be a good one. The faults that I found in this one seem to be on the expensive ones too.

YINENN® USB 3.0 Portable External DVD/CD-RW Drive-Burner

My daughter got a new macbook without a DVD drive. We don't have a DVD player and she was doing the 21 day fix so she was always using my computer to do her workout. I had troube doing what I wanted when she had it so I saw the YINENN® USB 3.0 Portable External DVD/CD-RW Drive-Burner-Write With Built-in USB Cable For Apple Macbook-Macbook Pro-Macbook Air And Other Desktop And Laptop-Silver and thought I would get it for her to use. I have never had such a thing and it works well. She is able to do her workout and then she can also use it for burning her DVDs too.

It was easy to hook up and get going. It worked as expected.All you have to do is plug it in and you are good to go. You don't need to install a driver. It just works. I really like that in a device.

The cord is not very long at all. The player needs to be right by the computer. I was disappointed in the cord. When we disconnect the end that goes to the computer comes apart a little. I am not sure it will hold out for long. Hopefully there will be a replacement cord I can find.

The player is nice and small. Not much bigger than a CD case, just a little thicker.

Provided my cord holds out, I would recommend this player. It is nice and compact and not hard to use.

Swim Paddles Hand for Kids,Girl,Boy,Youths,Teenager

I found the Swim Paddles Hand for Kids,Girl,Boy,Youths,Teenager,Swimming Pool Training to be different a little than what I thought they were going to be. That isn't a bad thing. I just did not read very well. (I do that more often. Lol)

They are a hard plastic. You put your hand in the straps and then it will give you more area for the water resistance, Like a bigger cupping of your hands. There is water that comes through the little holes in the plastic. This is supposed to make it feel more like without them.

These work for small women's hands too. The pictures are of a small women's hands.

The straps are adjustable to fit different size hands and fingers. They aren't the easiest to get on and off. I think I might need to adjust them so they are looser.

My grandchildren had fun playing with these and finding how much faster they could go in the pool. The downside I found though was that it is difficult for them to grab on to the side of the pool with these on. If they are panicking they won't be able to get them off quickly either. This is a concern to me if a pool is crowded and someone might not see if they are in distress. So they need to be supervised well.

15.6 Inch Laptop Sleeve,LOVPHONE Breathable Notebook Computer Case

The 15.6 Inch Laptop Sleeve,LOVPHONE Breathable Notebook Computer Case is a nice case. I have a 15.5 inch laptop and I will say it is a little small for mine. I will post pictures to show how it fit stretched. I am using it and it does zip but I have to kind of stretch it around the corners so it isn't as protected as I would like.

I ordered the dark purple and the color looks different than it does in the pictures. I would say it is a lighter color than shown. It is definitely purple but not the deep purple that is shown. I hope the color comes through in my pictures.

I like the feel of the handles. It is comfortable to carry.

There are pockets on each side to put items in. I put my charger in there. It fits well. I thought it would be difficult to put anything in the pockets but the case stretches nicely so I was pleasantly surprised.

I wish it had more padding in it to protect it better. I worry about dropping my laptop due to neuropathy and if I do I am afraid that it will break due to lack of padding

If you are looking for something to carry your laptop and not needing too much protection this would be nice. I probably would not get this though if it more than 15 inches.

Dry Erase Markers - Pack of 13 Vivid, Fresh Colors

I ordered the Dry Erase Markers - Pack of 13 Vivid, Fresh Colors to try to write messages on my mirror. I enjoy writing messages to my daughter to encourage her.

I love the bright colors that these come in. They are pretty and vibrant. I have never had a set like this with some much choice. In the past I have used the regular blue, green and red set. This is so much better.

Then there is the round case that they come in. This is great. It stands up nicely in the cupboard so it doesn't take up much room. The case is one of my favorite things about these.

I ended up also using them to label some totes I have that are dry erase. They wrote very easily on them. I will say that the tips are harder so they have a little different feel as you write. I am ok with that though.

The one thing I have trouble with is that the lids are very hard to get off. I have neuropathy and that might be why I struggle with it. I don't want to leave the lids loose though either. Also, the lids don't click when you put them on so it is harder to tell if they are on all the way.

Despite those negatives, I would still recommend them if you are looking for a set like these. They are pretty and you have a lot of choice for colors.

Grill Captain Meat Thermometer Pro

The Grill Captain Meat Thermometer Pro is a nice unit. It has a couple of probes that connect to the base which sends a wireless reading to the portable unit. You don't have to be by the grill or oven in order to know what temp your meat is at.

It works in the oven or grill. I have not used it in the oven yet but I did use it on the grill and on the stove top. I actually was using it on the grill when the temp was not rising very much. I thought that the thermometer was not working. When I went out to the grill I found out that the grill was not working properly. Good thing I was not waiting all that time for it to cook my food. So I took the meat and the thermometer in the house to finish cooking it. I put the meat in a pan and finished cooking it there with the probes in it. I could tell when it was finished. It was cooked perfectly. I also checked how it compared to another thermometer that I had and they were pretty close to each other with their temps.

It uses batteries and they were included. When you are not using it you can turn off both the base and portable part.

I did not find the instructions very clear at all. This is why I have not tried more things on this yet.

There are many things you can do with this thermometer. You can pick the type of meat and then how well cooked you would like it. When it is at the correct temperature it will beep to let you know. You can custom set the temp too but I have not tried that yet.

This would make a great gift for someone. It would be a great part of a grill basket or all by itself.

Better Homes Portion Control Containers 14 piece set in Multi-Colored

The Better Homes Portion Control Containers 14 piece set in Multi-Colored is a very nice set. It is compatible with the 21 day fix diet. They also message you a guide to go along with these. I have the 21 day fix diet plan though but wanted more containers so I looked for a cheaper set. This set looks just like the expensive ones I had. I can use them very interchangeably.

The set does not come with instructions. They email the instructions to you. I would rather that they were included in the box. I almost missed them.

The containers are dishwasher safe. I did not have any trouble with them not washing up well.

These are sturdy containers that I don't see breaking any time soon. The lids fit tightly so they have not leaked for me.

I like that there are two sets of containers included. Now I have three sets. I can fill them ahead and if they are in the dishwasher, I still have some to use. It works well for me and will keep me in the habit of better eating and better choices.

This set also came with a set of measuring spoons and when I opened the box my first thought was that the colors were so cool! I loved the colors of the spoons. They will be easy to see which you have with the bright colors.

I would really recommend these if you already have a diet planned or if you have the original 21 day plan and would like more containers.

BlueFire 12pcs/Set Russian Piping Tips

The BlueFire 12pcs/Set Russian Piping Tips are different than any of the other tips I have seen or used. I really wasn't sure what to do with them. I went to my best friend Google and asked there. I found some youtube videos to help me out. If you have never used these Iwould suggest that you do the same. There are many videos and they helped me a lot.

I wish these came with a coupler so that I could change tips in the middle of a project. I will need to find one the right size.

I use a freezer bag as a piping bag. I just cat a slit in one corner and insert the tip. Twist the bag closed and start piping.

These tips make flowers with out doing each petal individually. I would say I still like the looks of the other way better but this is easier and quicker if you are just doing a project that is now as important. Also, if you don't know how to do it the other way this works great.

These tips are strong and sturdy. They are not going to bend at all.
