Latest Reviews

Does the O-Cedar Spin Mop Work? – Absolutely! I love that you don’t have to put your hands in the cleaning water and the spinning mechanism gets you a nice damp mop instead of a dripping wet one. Cleaning is a breeze, and the shape of the head lets you get into all the tight corners without much effort. Check it out, I am sure you will this spin mop.

Are Swiffer Products Good? – In my opinion, yes. I have used Swiffer products for 21 years and I still love them. They are easy to use, reach tight corners and are small enough to fit into small spaces. You can use their accessories/cleaning products, but you can also use your own or brands that fit the Swiffer. So, check out my review of the widely available Swiffer products.

Are Arteza Iridescent Paints Good? – if you like to paint you should try the Arteza Craft Acrylic Paint, Iridescent, 2oz Bottles – Set of 10. Those colors are beautiful and change according to the light hitting them. They are safe and non-toxic, so even beginners and children can use them. Check out my full review where I introduce the different colors.

Are ‘Better Life’ Cleaning Products Worth the Price? – are you also looking for green cleaning products? I certainly try to limit the chemicals I use in my house. But those alternative products should not break the bank either. So, finding the right product depends very much on reading reviews and hope that other people are telling the truth. I tried ‘Better Life’ cleaning products after I saw them on Shark Tank. Check out in my review what I found.

Should You Buy Pajamas Online? – if you are like me the convenience of buying clothes online is very tempting. But there are pitfalls, as the sizes are sometimes off, and you don’t know what kind of fabric you will get. At the store you can feel the fabric and decide if you want to buy it. Online you have to depend on the description, which is sometimes not truthful, and reviews from other buyers which can also be misleading. I bought two pairs of pajamas 8 months apart and even though they were the exact same ones, they had big differences. Read my review to find out.

Which Cat Bowl is right for my Kitty? – if you have a pet, you need food and water bowls. But how do you decide which ones are right for your furry or feathered family member? There are so many different bowls to choose from. In this review I am introducing cat bowls I use for my big cat family. My preferred ones are stainless steel bowls, as they are easy to clean, they do not smell and they do not breed bacteria, which is very important for their health. So, check out my review and might help you decide which cat bowl is right for your fur baby.

Which Computer Mouse Is Best For Me? – Computer mice, we all need them. And I am sure you have a couple of them at home. There are many different ones out there, all depending on what you use them for. Are you an avid gamer? – well, you need a special mouse for sure. Do you work in design? -many design programs require you to have a specific mouse. Or are you just like me and use a mouse every day, but for nothing specialized. Yes, I need mine for work and I have my favorites. So, let me guide you through the world of computer mice in this review.

Candles – Real vs Battery vs Plug-in – Real Candles for the perfect ambiance and charm. Their scent makes every home smell wonderful – or not? Did you notice that scents got stronger and besides that candles can start a fire. So, maybe you want to opt for a flameless battery-operated candle or a flameless electric candle. Check out your options in this review.

My K-cup Universal Reusable Filter – Do you use a Keurig single cup coffee maker? If you do, check out this review for the reusable filter. It will fit all Keurig single cup coffee makers and will save you a ton of money not having to buy all those coffee pods. Find out in my review about this Keurig Universal Reusable Filter.

Pinwheels Fun for Kids or Decorating – Did you have a pinwheel when you were a kid? Do you still like the colorful wheels turning in the wind? I bought several sets of pinwheels. My main reason was to repel the ducks, but they look really cute, so besides silver reflective ones I bought orange ones for Halloween and red silver pinwheels for Christmas. Check out the different pinwheels in this review.

RIP Swiffer Sweeper – My favorite Swiffer Sweeper finally broke after 22 years. It was my go to tool to clean my floor every day, as it picked up all the dust and cat hair without leaving a mess. I was sad to see it go and I had to decide if I wanted to get the same one or the bigger XL version. Yes, the bigger one might be faster in cleaning the floor, but does it get into tight corners as well as the original Swiffer Sweeper?

The Garbage Disposal Debate – Using a garbage disposal in our kitchen is something most of us will do every day. But lately people insist on having a compost and putting your scraps there or throw them in the trash can. I can see sense if I live in the country and have space to put a compost, but where should I put a compost in a city apartment? And throwing all my food scraps in the trash just makes the landfills worse. So come and check out my newest post.

Are New And Improved Products Better? – “Shrinkflation” is a word that everyone knows. Have you found products that are smaller but for the same price? Or maybe the package is the same, but there is less in it? Have you bought “improved” products that are far from better? Did you notice differences in taste, smell, etc that are worse than the old products? Maybe you have a different experience? Come on in and check it out.

Packaging – A Societies Nightmare – Are you finding yourself in a mountain of plastic? Everywhere we go and buy items we find plastic. Either the item is made out of it, or it is wrapped in plastic. We cannot get away from it. Our landfills and oceans are full of plastic and companies are not doing anything to help that problem. Is there anything we could do? Maybe you have some ideas.

Is there a duck repellant that really works? – Do you have a duck problem? Or maybe you know someone who does? In this post I will give you lots of ideas I have tried to repel those humongous Muscovy ducks that roam the communities here in South Florida. But the ideas are not specific to any duck, so if you have different ducks that you want to get out of your yard, read on.

Let’s talk about Batteries – Batteries are something every household needs. From essentials like smoke or carbon monoxide detectors to radios to toys. How about your remotes? We cannot live without them. But there are good batteries out there and there are bad ones that you should avoid at all costs. Check out this post for some good information.
