Good support for every day activities. I received this item quickly. I bought these due to laxity and history of sprains in both of my ankles.  I wanted something that I could wear if on my feet for extended periods of time that wasn’t as restrictive as a brace.  I wouldn’t recommend these if playing sports or doing an activity where a lot of support is needed.I find the material comfortable and great quality, while being reasonably priced.  I ordered a small, which is the size I usually wear.  I found them true to size.  They are not easy to get off, but I wouldn’t expect them to be, given they are made for compression.  I have washed them on the delicate cycle in my washer machine and line dry them and they have held up very well.  I would recommend these for anyone looking for ankle support for every day activities.


In LOVE!! I have the rucksack (small) Gootium to carry groceries in but I wanted something that was just for me.  Soon as I opened the package I was in love!  I bought the "khaki" color but it looks golden to me.  It's gorgeous!!  I love all of the inside pockets, internal key clasp, the secret zip pocket on the back of the bag and the big zipper pocket on the front.  I love the smell of the leather on the handles and the zipper pulls are my fave! I was afraid of the straps twisting or fraying but there has been no problems so far but I also, don't weigh my bag down with heavy things. I was on the fence about getting this bag until this color came out and I knew I had to have it. I'm so glad that I did because it is my favorite bag I've had (and that says a lot because I'm a "Bag Lady" hahahaha!)

Very beautiful. This pool cue has no flaws, and is very beautiful. The brown has an almost tigers eye look to it under the light, which makes it that more stunning. It has a nice feel in your hands, and is pretty good quality. I was surprised I liked it even better than I thought I would. The case is also pretty well made and I see no flaws with that either. The cue fits nicely in it without any issues. For the price, I did not expect it to be one of my favorites, but alas, it might just be my favorite pool cue to date, mostly due to the look, yes, but the fact it also has a nice feel, and works as good as any as I've used, plays in that as well.  I will note I am not an avid pool player, but I have played with a league team (as a stand in) previously, and have some experience beyond being new to the sport or just messing around. So I am only giving my review as an in the middle player, not a professional. Regardless, I think this would be a nice addition to any players collection, be it a beginner, or all the way to a pro.


Poor packaging. Are you kidding me ??? I was looking for ice packs that will last for hours without sweating too much. I Came across these and made the purchase. When they arrived the package was not at all what I expected.It was not completely sealed and therefore, parts were missing.there was only 4 ice packs included instead of the 5 as described. The funnel was missing as well as the cork-type pieces that are supposed to be used to fill the packs then seal the openings. In all fairness, I contacted Amazon and a replacement set will be sent to me. I do, however must return this set so I won’t be charged twice. Obviously I am quite disappointed with this product and company. I am looking forward to finding out if the new set will work as I originally anticipated.  As of right now, I do not recommend this product!UPDATE : well the second set was delivered and WHAT…the package was open and contents are missing. AGAIN !  How does this happen twice in one month ? Although this time I did get all 5 ice packs, but the funnel and 5 blue stoppers are missing. I’m done. This time I am returning and expecting my money back! At a price of $18.98 I truly expected better quality in the packing from manufacturer. Do not waste your time or money on this frustration !


“High density” does Not mean that it is hard enough. I attached a photo that some might find helpful about ways to use this block. I’m a yoga teacher.  Speaking from a place of experience and a certain kind of conditioning I prefer hard blocks. I have felt three inch (as opposed to four) lightweight hard foam blocks that are amazing. Such a block is great for a high amount of pressure that is therapeutic. Still trying to find a brand other than Manduka. So here I learn that “high density” doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s hard enough. I tried this block and i will return it. It is flimsy when using it on high height in something like the supported shoulder bridge which you can see in the attached image. I think I remember as a beginner I liked soft blocks because it felt more comfortable. Then I learned. So I hope that is helpful. Maybe everyone reading this is the type of beginner that doesn’t want a hard block. I have gotten off-brand cork blocks here which cost a bit more but have perfect density and hardness.


Awesome Poor Man's Peloton. I purchased this about a year ago to use as a cheap alternative to a Peloton. Assembly was super easy. I added a bluetooth Wahoo cadence tracker, my Apple Watch for heart rate, and my iPad fit perfectly on top to stream the Peloton app. The only thing I cannot replicate is the resistance and I just go by how hard they say it should be, it works for me. I love it. I have a quiet room it is tucked away in that I can work out in and have had absolutely zero problems other than the infamous seat squeak which only happens if I fidget. I am just at the point that cages are getting annoying and I am going to put clipless pedals on but the cages worked fine. For reference, I am 5'1", 200lbs, and have never broken a pedal standing to ride or had any clunking noises. I do feel like I could use one more tiny click lower on the seat to perfect the alignment, or farther forward but not to the point it is uncomfortable.


Awesome for first time bike user! I love this bike! I have never used an exercise bike before but after researching what exercise equipment is good for low impact I thought I would try this out. I read another review that said this bike is only good for experienced users and I highly disagree. I will say I did have to replace the seat with a comfort seat as the stock seat hurt so much. I have zero issues with the new seat and can go for a while on my bike. I love the water bottle holder and the outlet for my tablet. I haven't downloaded the free app yet as I have been using other free videos for exercises. I highly recommend this bike for first time users!


Awesome!!! This pole is awesome I've never fly fished before because it seemed to be expensive and took some practice/skill to do butt this pole is super simple. I watched a bunch of videos then took a practice fly out in the yard setup a coffee can and started to practice before I new it i was able to pop that fly into the can with easy its all on the wrist. I like that the pole is all self contained i did get a line holder that attaches to the rod just above your hand so when collapsed you can just wind the line around it slip it in the tube and be on your way. I dont know that Ill every want to buy a fly rod I have several lengths and weights of tippet lines and most of the small streams and brooks I fish are tight quarters so your not able to cast a country mile anyway. I suppose on the bigger lakes you would want a fly rod too but the portability of this rod is awesome I would recommend trying one out especial if you already have the fly gear its quick to setup and be on the edge of in the water with 13 ft and a 12-16 ft  tippet you can get a decent amount of distance and accuracy. I think its a great setup for beginners or pro's its just another style of fishing.


I received a dull one. I wanted to love this knife when I got it. Unfortunately, the one I received was so dull out of the box that I had questions...I really like Condor knives. I recently bought a Bushlore. The Bushlore was razor sharp out of the box, so I chose this knife as a larger knife for the bigger chores around the camp.Normally, I will reprofile a new knife to my tastes, so it's a bit of a stretch to criticize this knife, but I do expect a knife to be sharp enough to use when I unpack it. My Hudson Bay was not usable out of the box! Way too dull.All that said, it's a nice knife and I'll get her to proper usability once I have the time to grind and sharpen it.One just shouldn't have to.


Works well while I work. I love this treadmill so much. I use it with my standing desk while I work. The only two things I wish were slightly better are 1- I do wish it had even a small incline option and 2 - I do wish I could store it standing. It seems to potentially want to stand while “folded” but it doesn’t for me at least. Luckily, I have room in my office for it to sit out of the way flat. But I will say it arrived quickly, was easy to get unpackaged and going, and has worked very well. I keep my remote in a container on my desk to prevent losing it and it’s all going well. Super happy with this purchase.


Love it! Very sturdy little stool. I hate to say it but I am 420lbs and getting one of these I was worried I would break it when I sat on it but this little handy dandy stool is pretty darn sturdy. I work as a after care teacher in early education, I have a bad knee and plantar fasciitis in for feet so standing for to long sometimes is kinda difficult. I have to sit with my leg extended out so holding any of my weight up off the stool isn't something that happens. Also my kiddos at school are always wanting to sit on it and of course they try playing with it and it's held up very well! As for comfort, I mean it doesn't have a cushion so it's not like super comfortable but it gives me a place to sit and it holds me up so yeah its good enough. Another good thing is is that i am a tall girl and this isn't so short like other stools like this one where I snap crackle and pop when I go to sit down so that's definitely a plus. It's most definitely worth the money if you need a portable stool.


Really liked them, but they would not charge. I really liked these lanterns. They flashlight option was extremely bright. The big downside is the charging. Upon receiving them, I plugged them both in. A blue light came on for about 5 seconds and then disappeared. I assumed this meant that they were fully charged. I took them camping and they started fading before the end of the first night. The next day I plugged them both in for about 3 hours apiece. The same thing happened when I plugged them in, a blue light for about 5 seconds then it disappeared. No indication if they were actively charging or fully charged. After 3 hours of charging apiece, I tried using them for my 2nd night of camping. As soon as I turned them, they died within a minute as if they hadn’t been charged at all. I returned them. These lanterns failed me on my camping trip. I can’t have an unreliable light source that doesn’t given any indication at all of charging or battery status. It’s a shame because I really liked the outside of the charging issues..


Initial response...positive. I have never been one to use a range finder. Gps has always been sufficient. I can't wait to get this out to the course. It locks on quickly, it compact, and very clear. I was surprised by the accuracy. I shot my fence and it was within a yard. Being an amateur golfer that is more than accurate enough.Not a golfer? No problem. This thing has 9 other modes. I cannot wait to get it to the course to see how well it work. I might know the yardages that I am missing.This gets a Veal level 4 recommendation.Veal Recommendation Levels1. Not even to people I dislike2. To people I dislike3. People I can tolerate4. People that I like5. People that I love


This thing is wild. I have used a variety of TENS units and have really enjoyed them.  This thing is much more powerful so be advised.  I do wish that there were lower levels as I find 1 pretty powerful.  I have not been able to increase from level 1, but I am sure with time I will get used to it.  I'm just taking it easy in the beginning.  I like that is adjustable with a variety of modes.  The pucks that drive the system are easy t use and attached and I like that one cable will charge them all. The charge lasts quite some time as well.  I have mostly focused on toning my stomach and I know I need to use it for longer to see more results, but I am excited about the journey.


Excellent so far. The box came in good condition. There were not a whole lot of pieces to assemble. I put this together myself in about 30 minutes and only because I did not look at the directions as carefully as I should have. I always look at the pieces in the box compared to the directions of what is to be be sent in the box. What I didn’t notice was the fine print that said some of those pieces came pre-assembled. I scratched my head at some of the other directions, but if you think it through, it will make sense.This machine is smaller than a magnetic rower and the arm motions are like rowing on water as opposed to just pulling back and forth. I used it the first time last night after putting it together. I could only take the number 1 setting in the tension as I have gotten out of shape except for indoor biking. I ended up using my VR headset to play Holofit and lost track of the time. It ended up being about 40 minutes. Today, I am sore all over, but a good sore. This machine really works the arms, back, and legs. After a few months, if this machine is as good as it is now, I will give it 5 stars.


This is my second purchase of these. I originally purchased this belt when I had an iphone 8+ back in 2018.  I used it every other day when I ran.  I constantly pulled my iphone out of the belt 2 - 3 times a run (for pictures).  When I purchased an iphone 13 pro max I was happily surprised that it still fit in my old belt.  The belt fit me fine (I wear size 8 women's pants) and never "bounced" during the time I used it (although from time to time I did have to tighten it a bit as it sometimes came loose).Finally after many years of service, the zipper broke in December 2022.  I purchased a replacement and the quality is still as good as the original.  Not planning to upgrade my iphone any time soon, but I hope this still works in future.I highly recommend this product for those who don't like to carry their phones in their pockets when running.


Keep the cap on if you want your coffee kept warm. I first used this kind of cup when I was a guest at a friend's house.  I loved that my coffee stayed warm if I used the lid.  Plus I liked the extra protection against light accidents.  I don't consider this a "thermos", but instead a "better coffee cup".  So I purchased one for myself.  I use this cup around the house on weekends as I take a while to finish my coffee.  I love it.  I may even purchase a couple for my guests!


Screw holes not machined well and doesn't fit handlebars or steer tube perfectly. I bought two of these. The first one broke as I was installing it. One of the handlebar screws popped out as I was screwing it in and the threads in the hole completely just stripped out. So I got a refund and wanted to give the benefit doubt to the product so I ordered another. It lasted me roughly 9 months and as I was removing the stem to take my fork off, the bolt hole snapped and stripped out again. For the price it isn't bad. If you don't intend on ever taking the stem off and you carefully install it, I think it could be good. But I travel with my bike and this happened as I was traveling so it nearly ruined my trip. Luckily it was just one hole so I was able to make due with it temporarily but I will not be buying this stem again. Another weird thing about this stem is that it didn't fit my handlebars perfectly and there was a gap between the front plate and the stem. It also didn't fit onto my steer tube very well and it  took a lot of effort to remove/install.


Good lock for the price. I like this lock so far.  I attached the mount to my bike via the water bottle bolts, but I decided to move it to my bike bag instead.  The mount worked fine, I just missed having my bottle there.  This lock is pretty heavy, which is to be expected.  It is large enough for any bike rack and most poles I would use to lock up my bike.  It is too short for locking down your frame and front wheel to a thick pole.My only complaint is that the coating might end up scratching or wearing the paint on my bike.  This has not happened yet since I don't lock my bike up often, but I really wish there was some rubber on the parts that contact the bike.  I am considering adding some foam tape or something similar to limit the wear.All in all, this is a great folding lock for the money.  I like to budget about 20% of the bike's value for its lock so this falls well within that range for most of my bikes.  I will still use higher-security locks for any very expensive bikes, but that is just due to the higher risk involved.  This lock is far more secure than most cable locks I have seen and is much easier to carry than a U-lock, so this gets my recommendation.


I'm obsessed. I bought this because I was of course influenced by Tik Tok... and I'm so happy I was. I don't like going to the gym & my yoga studio closed in my neighborhood, so I really needed a way to get some exercise in. Keep in mind I also live with 2 roommates so I needed something I can do in my 10 ft by 10ft room. This is AMAZING. It's a great workout-- I definitely feel the burn! It comes with the resistance bands, great to strengthen arms, I even use weights too. It was so easy to set up, didn't even have to do much. It even comes with a screen to keep track of time, calories and steps. This took a couple tries to figure out how to manage the screen, but easy once I got the hang of it. I couldn't recommend this enough!!


I don’t know. I wish I could give it a review. I saw this on the feed in the summer and was notified during a flash sale. I bought and when I had time off work to take to pool, I got someone’s return. Now mine was an impulse buy based on what it looks like it can do. But the one I received didn’t have a power source. I received the device and the top wing (fin) whatever it is. I returned. I noticed upon return that the serial numbers did not even match up from the inner to the outter box. I’m bummed, but I guess it worked out since it was an impulse buy for myself. I’ll continue to watch and if it drops to where I don’t feel guilty I’ll repurchase. Oh, the motor had a hair wrapped up in it. Blonde I think and mines black!


It has built in gloves and I feel so cute. After three years of pandemic and quarantine and wfh, which also included a pregnancy, I had very few pieces of clothing left that fit and suddenly I was being forced back into the office. It's January and cold, so I decided to treat myself to a cute new winter coat to help with the transition back.This coat is everything.It is cozy and warm without making me overheat and it doesn't feel heavy. The sleeves have built in fingerless gloves which I love because I always forget my gloves. The pockets are deep but they don't bulge when full. I can easily fit a 20oz waterbottle in the pocket and hardly notice it is there.Literally the only downside I've experienced is that I can't get to my smart watch because of the gloves, but I'm sure if I really wanted to I'd be able to.This coat made me feel cute for the first time in three years and I am so glad I got it.


Love the Purple Color and the faux Purple Fur. I wear medium clothing but I ordered an XL because I read that it ran small.  I like my coats big so whatever sweater I wear under it fits in the sleeves .  I live in FL so don't get a chance to try on Winter Coats but I need them when I travel for warmth and protection from rain.  I figured I'd usually would get a Large, so I ordered an XL and I love the fit.  The jacket may come normally to the waist, but because I got bigger it comes down and covers my butt.  Perfect.


Easy to install & just work! I had cages on my pedals, but I was primarily riding my bike on a trainer.  I used the cages because I figured my feet would slip, but I didn't want the clicky shoes since I wasn't convinced I was going to ride enough to spend the time finding something that fits...I unhooked my bike and now its going on the road for real.  The cages are just not going to work for me, so these are just right.  I wanted something durable and at least decent looking for my cyclocross bike.  Like I said, I'm not hardcore, so I just wanted something with regular pedals - these fit perfectly and work as I had hoped.  Look cool and have plenty of grip for when I'm casually riding around.  Very satisfied.


I use it every day. I'm not a great photographer, and it's not like I can capture the "soul" of a water bottle because it's simply a water bottle. However, I am not exaggerating when I say that for the first two days that I had it, practically everyone at work questioned me about it. I'm not sure if it's because I had it full of ice water and everyone was thirsty and saw that my bottle was full of ice cold water and it just made it more desirable or what. I do, however, know that this water bottle has not yet leaked on me. I like how the ml of water is labeled on the side. Oh, and I'm reminded of how puzzled I was when I first tried to open this thing, but now I think it's one of the best aspects. So, when you go to drink, you press a little button in the front, and it flings your lid off. It is both quick and convenient. However, at first glance, it appears to be something that slides up and down. One of my friends told me they tried to drink from it, but they couldn't open it. (Fortunately, I didn't want their lips on my drink in the first place.)So, Basically I LOVE IT


Awesome product for the $18 I spend for it. Especially since I have a 44 oz thermos. This was one of the few insulated pocket carriers for drinks that I could find in the 44 oz plus. The short story is at my local Ross I bought a number of drinking thermoses because I do a lot of rollerblading, hiking, and outdoor activities. Yet, it's rare that I can find an insulated carrying case for such drink containers. I felt very fortunate when I found this particular product for its price. I appreciated this product so much that I purchased one for a friend and gave it to them for Christmas and I purchase one more for myself so that I had one on my camping bag and one on my rollerblading bag to carry my insulated drinking container.


Like that I can feel the water. I have a set of speedo hand paddles and I wasn't sure if I had made the right choice as I just started swimming again so I wanted to try these out as well.I wasn't sure what size to get because I have bigger hands and the information didn't really explain what size to get so from what I read I decided to try the medium. These were a little tight on my hands but comfortable. I did like the bigger hole in the middle so I could feel the water, the speedo ones have a really small hole in comparison.The big difference for me between these and the speedo ones is that these are flat and the speedo ones are slightly curved. It turns out that I prefer the slightly curved ones as a beginner but I have a feeling these flatter ones are going to prove useful the more I use them.


Well made pullover for someone with an athletic build. I ordered this pullover because I was intrigued by Tom Brady's name attached to the item. I didn't know he was endorsing a line of athletic wear. I figured if Brady was willing to add his name to the product, it must be high quality. The pullover is indeed well made with quality materials. It is extremely lightweight, and great for moderate temperatures around 50 degrees. I am in my mid-50s, 5'9" and about 170. I run outside about 4 times a week and do strength training 2 times a week. I am certainly not an elite athlete, and I find myself walking up steep hills these days when out on a run. Usually a large is about the right size or just a little big on me. The large Brady pullover I ordered was definitely meant for someone with Brady's athletic build rather than my middle-aged build. There isn't any give when getting the item pulled over my head, so it isn't the easiest pullover to put on. However, while the fit is snug, once on it worked great for a warmer than usual January run. It kept the wind away and was surprisingly flexible for as difficult as it was to pull on. I would order again, but I would order a larger size.


Not accurate, irritated my wrist. I really wanted to like this watch, as my friend has 1 and we could join eachother and share our progress with one another, etc. I was amazed at how many steps I was doing each day- until I realized that it was adding steps when I wasn't even walking! I bought another less expensive watch and wore both of them on my wrist for several days. sure enough, the Fitbit showed many more steps then the other- which showed to be more accurate when I was watching.My second complaint is that though it is less bulky than some watches, it irritated my wrist. I don't know if it is the materials it is made out of or what, but it wore a rash into it.Lastly, the App. They want $80 a year for their "premium" edition, which my other watch app gives me for FREE! Plus, my other watch monitors my blood pressure, which the fitbit does not, unless I enter it manually. All in all, I can say I tried it but I am not impressed. The seller, however was great. I had the watch in less than 2 days.


Inexpensive, but with cheap construction. I got this shelf/rack for my basement exercise room. It was inexpensive which is good because it is also somewhat problematically constructed.The first one they sent me had a piece soldered upside down. So I wasn’t able to assemble it. The second one had all the pieces soldered correctly but when I hung them up, the one side was longer than the other. So I couldn’t make it level. I had to Jerry rig it to make the bottom racks be level. (Second picture) I also had trouble with the mollies they included—they were super weak so I wasn’t able to successfully hammer them into the wall even after I pre-drilled holes. I got them partially in and then the top would just cave in and I had to cut them off.I found the installation instructions difficult to follow and incomplete. Thankfully I’m handy enough to figure out how to do it. But it took a fair bit of time. So just prepare yourself for that.Because it’s attached with six screws, it feels pretty solid. I think it’s going to do the job well.


The company Graciously replaced my racquet. I really like the racket. It plays well. This racket was recommended to me and I love the way looked so I ordered it. I got it in September, but I didn’t begin playing until the second week of December of last year. I was playing yesterday and realized that it was beginning to tear away from the frame at the top of the handle. Today I was playing and it literally just shredded while I was playing and I had to go over and borrow someone else's  racket to finish the match. Even though I’ve only played with it a month and a half I am unable to return it because the window has closed. I loved playing with it and would’ve probably given it a five star at the beginning but, this is very sad because it was not cheap.UPDATE: I contacted the company about my racquet and they were very understanding and sent a replacement. After playing with it I can say that I like it. It feels good and has a comfortable grip. I'm hoping my first racquet flaw was just an isolated case.


Does as advertised, well designed, well built. I have a 26” wallyworld special that I converted to an electric hub several years ago.  I love my bike, but it is big, meaning it takes up a lot of room.  I wasn’t sure if this tire holder would work, as the bike has reasonable sized tires and is heavy.  It does work and it works well.  I rotate the bike up, the wheel pops into the holder, all is right with the world and I have reclaimed space in my 1 car garage.This is well designed and well built.  5 stars all the way!Note: I have been an Amazon customer for almost 20 years. I write all of my reviews to reflect my personal observations and opinions on a product. It matters not if I have purchased the item myself or if it was provided to me for review. My goal is to provide other potential customers as much real-world knowledge as possible to make an informed decision. In most cases I will return to my review in 6 months or less to see if I should alter my original observations. In no case will the cost of a product influence my opinions at all. In addition, I will try to include multiple images and or videos on each product, if practical.


LOVE. I saw one like this listed on Lowes for like $250 so when I saw this I knew I wanted to try it out. I really love incline walking and I didn't want to get something with the bulkiness of a normal treadmill that most likely for the price wouldn't have incline. When I read manual I was hesitant but now that I got it all set up (easy by the way) I love it! Once you get the oil on there its like skating on ice & I have tried it with and without shoes and I would say it is MUCH easier with shoes on in my opinion. Anyways, for the price, the weight & size, and the way my calves and thighs are burning ..... makes me believe again its great!


The best thing I’ve ever spent money on! First off I’m 31 next week so I’m not a kid but at heart I am. This thing came fully charged and after the simple setting up stuff I had to ride this thing around the block and I cried coz of how happy I was. Haven’t felt this happy since I was a kid when I was 13 my mom bought me a $200 electric scooter and I drive it to school. My school was just down the street from my home. This H5 is way better than the one I owned as a kid but wow! This thing GOES!! work your way up with the speed and make sure every nut and bolt is tight before riding it. YouTube videos helped me a lot. The seat is wobbly a bit but I tightened a bolt and it’s better now. Honestly, I have no complaints. This never happens. This thing is amazing! I’ll give updates over time of course. But this far I love it and I love everything about it!! Highly recommended to any adult or anyone any age.


More feel and stability. I took the JumboMax challenge, ordering a full set of grips, re-gripping one club and going to play.  I changed out my 8 iron because I use it a lot, plenty of opportunities for bump and run where I play.Came home, had lunch and re-gripped the whole set.  I find that I was too tight, tense, whatever you call it with the old skinny grips.  With these I was able to swing without clamping down on the club and without having to think about it much.  This lead to much increased feel and more clubhead speed.Around the greens my wedge play  is much improved.  I let one of my regular partners try out a wedge and he showed up the next week with HIS set changed out to these grips too.  So he still scores better than me, not that I mind.I love these grips.  Picking up a regular grip club now feels very strange.  I now understand why I never really had the degree of control I wanted before, even though I used oversize grips.  Oversize does not come even close to the feel of the JumboMax.


Nice bag. I love my yoga sandbag weights. I’ve been doing yin flow yoga a few times a week and using the weights has really helped me stretch and I find them very relaxing. This is a very pretty bag- I love the purple color and it feels well made. There is an inner liner then the cover with a zipper. My only criticism is I couldn’t fit 10 lbs no matter how hard I tamped down the rice I used to fill it- I could fit 8.5 lbs of rice. Maybe I should have used another fill material - and I guess the weight is close enough to the 10 lbs it will work- but I do wish I had been able to make it a full 10 lbs


EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS. A friend suggested I purchase this pair of hand warmers before a ski trip I had planned with my family. In the past, I would typically buy disposable single-use "pouch" style hand warmers but wanted something that was reusable and would last longer. Boy was I impressed with these. As I was putting on all my ski equipment, I fired these up and put them in my boots. When I was ready to put my boots on, they were already nice and toasty so I moved the warmers to my jacket pockets and zipped them closed. Once I went outside the lodge into the cold, I put my hands in my pockets and they were nice and warm. I had the warmers on the lowest setting and they kept my pockets warm all day. It was great to take my gloves off on the chair lift, stick my hands in my pockets before each run, and it made the day a much better experience overall. I highly recommend these if you're a skiier, hiker, go to an outdoor sporting event, etc.!


Absolutely Beautiful!! As an avid, long time bass fisherman, I am quite used to paying, what my wife considers to be, big money for a good reel.  I use only bait casters for my bass fishing and relegate spin casters for light stuff like crappie and brim.I really didn't expect too much considering the price of the reel.When I took it out of the box and unwrapped it, my chin dropped to my chest.  This reel is beautiful.Once I got past my initial surprise, I started to inspect it closely for the features that I would pay big bucks for.  I found all the features of my more expensive reels and more.  I would normally change out the crank handles for the ones with soft, grippable rubber handles.  This reel already had those.  I got the owners manual and read it from cover to cover and found it to be the most comprehensive and instructive manual I have ever seen.  It explained every single thing about the reel in very understandable English.I have yet to fish this reel, but if it works as good as it looks, I won't be dissatisfied in the least.I highly recommend this reel to serious fishermen everywhere.  I am considering buying another for my flipping rod.


Toning body! So I’ve read many reviews but none to fit what I’m looking for. So I received my plate read the book and already did research for an year! I’m a cheap person so wasn’t gonna invest until I knew for sure what I’m investing in. That being said, I did one position, the sit-up position (never moved)! I had it on p0!!! Well LET ME TELL YOU, there’s no way I can go pass that p0 I felt like like I was actually doing sit-ups! My husband thought I was playing nd he’s in top notch shape. Well he went right p3 and he didn’t finish 15 minutes! I love this thing already! I laid on as well and went in to crunch position did 5 minutes and my abs are on fire! So I’m writing this review as my abs burn and my upper arms stings! I think this plate does what it’s Benifits are! will intensify ur workout, and Tom that body up if consistent!  Good luck! Wil update in a month!Update: 3-6-2023! I’ve lost 16 lbs. didn’t expect it and my legs and butt are really noticeable toned! I use this thing 3x a week for an hour! Main positions, squat and push up! My arms lost weight which what I wanted! My husband noticed the Changed, I wasn’t looking forward to anything so quick! So that’s why I got on scale today! Good luck all!


In love! I really love this bag! I needed something smaller, but still with a good amount of storage. I got the red, and it does unfortunately show oil/water stains very easily. I might be brave enough to try washing it eventually, if the staining becomes super obvious. But I love the four pockets around the sides. When I change and need to stash my phone or work badge, they come in so handy! The shoe pocket is perfect for my size 7-8 shoes. The strap is the perfect length and keeps the bag right where I need it, but still allows me to carry it in the crook of my arm too. Highly recommend! I got the medium because I don't need a ton of room. Just enough for a change of clothes. I will say I do have to cram my work clothes in there if I wear a bulky sweater. So if you need more room get the large!


Perfect exercycle for me! I love this little stationary bike! And the price point is incredibly reasonable!! It's sleek, compact, cute, sturdy and tucks into a corner of my living room. It's SO quiet!! I can't believe it! I can listen to music, TV, read or watch Youtube while riding. My last recumbent bike made lots of noise, so I couldn't cycle if anyone else was around. I love the simple display that gives me all the parameters I need, including pulse - which at my age, is a good idea to watch when exercising. I target my heart rate. I had to have my husband put it together for me because of the few electronic parts. I didn't want to mess it up. I suppose if I HAD to have done it myself, I'd have eventually gotten through it. It really wasn't that hard to do, my husband said. All the parts were clearly labeled, well packed (in spite of the box arriving opened and smashed). Nothing was broken or smashed. Instructions were clear. Seat is comfy. I LOVE IT!! I'd buy it again in a heart beat! :)


Most likely much louder than my ears would appreciate. Before I read the other reviews, I took 2 of these whistles to a park to test them out and I was not impressed, I could not get a good loud sound out of them, no matter how I blew them. After I read some of the reviews I realized it must be me and not them, but even so I couldn't make them whistle loud or even soft really. But after some time went by I went back to park with one and changed my blowing technique and it worked, they are loud, so loud in fact that I was annoying people at the park and my ears were not happy either. They do require some practice apparently to get a good loud sound out of them or just determination. I hope I can make them whistle loud if I'm ever in an emergency situation.


Works just as it should. I love this and I have three of them. I have a job where I'm on the road all day. It is a real pain to use nasty road bathrooms and take off my work uniform. This little guy eliminates that issue. I can go anywhere, and do so without exposing myself. That's worth it's weight in gold. At first I was very nervous about using it, for fear of spills or leaks. However, I have had no problem with that - not even once. I started off practicing at home, and then went to single person bathrooms at work. Now I use it wherever and whenever I can do so with discretion. I even use a urinal with zero issues if one happens to be present. I also am an avid camper and hiker, and I use this off the job for that. It's one less thing I have to worry about. If you use this thing correctly, it works every time. I have zero complaints.


I absolutely love this backpack! It's super light but extremely well-made, sturdy and looks great. I was so excited when this arrived and while I was unpacking it. I think I finally found the perfect backpack. Good backpacks often are pretty large and take up space, but not this one. It is large unpacked but folded up it's about the size of a small hat. I took a million photos so I would be sure to know how to fold it up into it's tiny little sack again. It's unbelievable how compact this backpack can be when you see it all filled up and expanded. I put 2 large winter coats and a sweatshirt in it for the photos. There are straps in all the right places to distribute the weight evenly. I won't even consider buying a backpack if it doesn't have straps on the sides, but his backpack has side straps, two front straps and straps on the bottom for a bedroll or something. There are even straps on the straps! Can you tell that I love this backpack? I really do!


Honestly, I love this bag. I got this bag specifically for one day of a three day music festival I went to out of town. I flew in the morning of, attended the show, stayed in a hotel, flew home. I had to take everything I needed to the show with me because I wouldn’t be able to check in before the show. Granted I packed light, but this bag held everything I needed for a day in the sun and an overnight.Ive since taken the bag on a handful of travels where we’d venture out all day without returning to the hotel and it was perfect. Everything I need for the day AND room for some crap I’d buy along the way, one time it was three books and a T-shirt! It was stuffed, but it held it all.I’ve been looking for something a little better quality because I’ve grown to love this style and I can’t find anything that I like as much as this bag. I’m not having issues, but there are a lot little strings from unraveling fabric that’ll eventually cause problems.I carry it almost every day now. It’s gonna wear out, but I figure I’ll carry it gladly until it does.I took the patches off and put a couple of my own on, looks much better now.All in all, great bag. Probably 8L or so. Plenty big and decently constructed with lots of pockets.


Great. I haven't put together many things in my life and I did this so I would say it was fairly easy.  It was harder logistically to get it together than it was to figure it out (getting the screws in odd places and holding bars until I could get the screws on and tightened enough that things weren't falling).  I read some reviews about not tightening all screws until the end and that helped.One thing I found odd, when I went to tighten the screws, the metal frame bent from the force of the screws.  I'm not all that strong and didn't torque on them as hard as I could so I didn't expect that.  I was a little nervous that I had messed up (I still am), but I loaded it up with weights and it seems OK.  It's not super strong, like I can push on it and feel it move a little, but it's not wobbly so I'm hoping it's OK.


Mixed feelings. The 2 star is for THIS mat I bought. I must admit, it's taken me 5 years to write this review.  But I just used my OLD Jade mat and thought I should write this review.  I have mixed feeling because I bought a Jade mat at my yoga studio and have used it for many years. Great mat! I love it.  It was getting kind of dingy, so I thought I would use that one at home and buy another one for the studio.  So I bought this orange one. After about 2-3 months of uses, and past the return, it started to deteriorate.  I'd find orange specks all over my pants, as it was visibly breaking down. Life was busy so I just shoved the new crappy one in a closet and went back to using my old mat, which is over 10 years old and holding up.  I can't get it sparkling clean looking, but at least it's not falling apart.  I'm still disappointed that I wasted $80. Why was one mat great and durable and the other one crappy?


Stopped working after a the first time using.  I paid for shipping on the replacement. I got this as a present so that I can have radio with my partner whilst biking.  I received it for Christmas and live in a winter wonderland so I only tried this once and it worked fine.  Then the weather finally got bearable to bike and low and behold it did not work.  It was passed the time to return it to Amazon so I had to try to get a replacement from Senna.  After a few weeks of back and forth I finally received an RMA but I had to pay shipping.  Maybe this is standard but it is really disappointing that I have to pay out of pocket for a product that is defective.Sound quality is not good but I guess I should have expected it.  No base and only really good for the spoken word.  It tells you to download the app but the only thing the app is good for is the instructions.The helmet itself looks nice and fits comfortably.If I could do it all again I would choose a different company.


The seam is so close to the curved edges at the bottom that it could eventually rip. I have a 30 oz. insulated water bottle that I strive to fill 3X with water to drink throughout the day.  I take it with me when I drive, positioning it in the cup holder.  However, there are times when I walk that I wish I could take my water bottle with me.  I ordered this 2 pack of Tainehs Water Bottle Holders because I figured my bottle would fit inside it based upon the product page's measurements: 7.4" X 3.5", and my boyfriend could use the other bottle holder when we go hiking.  I like the rectangular shape to fit keys, a Chapstick, a protein bar, etc.  I could slide a credit card, money, ID, etc. in the front zipper pocket, in case we stop somewhere to walk and shop.I think these water bottle carriers are handy. The nylon material feels durable. The inch-wide strap is adjustable.  My only concern is the stitching.  The seam is so close to the curved edges at the bottom of the black one that it could eventually rip and come apart at some point.  The pink one isn't as bad.  (See photos.) The current price of $16 might be a bit high, IMO, but you do get 2 of them.


Worst piece of fitness equipment I own. Not going to lie, I wanted something for the wife that was just easier than grabbing a bar and bench in limited basement space.  I have all types of equipment down there, and this was just going to supplement workout routines.  I had high hopes when I got this thing.  Then I started to try and out it together.  Let me tell you, the hardware us not marked, the instructions leave a lot to be desired, and holes do not line up (had to ream out two holes).  Sturdiness after being assembled is questionable, and the design is severely flawed.  There are two hooks that insert downward and attach with nuts on the back (floor side) of the platform.  We'll, these hooks protrude further than the feet of the platform and hit the ground more than the supposed platform feet.  Let me tell you, I was pretty upset when I discovered these hooks had dug themselves into my floor and sratched it all up!  I had to grind these protrusions down and tape them to ensure they wouldn't scratch anything.  I tried the system after I assembled and do not feel confident that it will last more than a month.  Everything is cheap!  I am super upset that this thing is like this, and feel cheated.  Honestly, this is the worst piece of equipment I now own!!!


Fantastic bag. So I wish MR made a 'toned down' tacticool version of this due to the nature of my work. I use this as my primary laptop/work bag. I appreciate how "close" everything feels in the pouches. All of the compartments are very accessible and have the appropriate attachment points so I can carabiner/zip tie the zippers if I am in a pickpocket area. I would recommend this bag to anyone who is on the go for work. It flies through TSA security stuff and has ample room for all of the stuff I need on the go. I leverage packing cubes for all of my stuff and carry a Dell 15" laptop and a USBC Dell secondary monitor, as well as an anker 737 battery and all appropriate cables. I typically keep my glasses case/sunglasses in the outside pouch and in the other, I keep gum and keys I don't put in my pocket. The inside zipper keeps pens (in ink proof cube), passport, immunization card, and some cash. This is a very nice system for the price and very durable construction compared to most of the bags in this class.


Kid size. I was all like so many for so cheap! They arrived and now I see why… I gave it three stars because I don’t want to help or harm the rating and I always feel like three stars does that? The black one is one that I bought at the local sporting goods shop and I wanted more for cheaper, so here I coke Amazon! I didn’t even look at the reviews, somebody probably said they are kid size, but I wouldn’t know… because I didn’t look. I’m am not happy with myself because I’m on a fitness journey and decided to turn my living room into a gym since nobody really visits me and I watch anime all day. These mats are not going to cover the floor like I thought it would… but I’ll make it work! Lol


It's perfect 💕 I love the look of this basket. The color the pockets are deep. My dog seems to like it. I started a return on this purchase because I thought it was just to big. Then I couldn't get the walls to stand up. I didn't understand that at all.  To top it off the basket was touching my tire without my dog being in it.  I was very disappointed. I read the description on the site and thought I measured it right. I got up the next morning determine to make this basket work.  I just loved the look of it especially the color  Ok, the side walls...the openings are hidden up under the Velcro. Which you wouldn't know unless you was really looking.  Once I figured that out the basket was sturdy. Then I tried it on my bike again. You have to pull all the straps up and make it as tight as you can to make sit right. After doing this, the basket no longer sat on my tire. I put my dog in the basket and it was a perfect fit. I'm so glad I didn't return it. I'm in love with all over again. I see my dog and I doing a lot of riding. I just love it💕


Needed it to sleep outside. I’m not one to rough it in the outdoors.  And I don’t function well without sleep.  So, when I decided I’d like to try testing in preparation for camping again.  I knew I’d need something like this, and I was right.I picked about the coldest night to test this out.  I first laid out my bag and crawled my over six foot self in without this mattress.  I could feel every lump under my nearly 200 pound body.  I know that if I raked up the earth under me it would’ve been better but that’s not something I was prepared to do.So, I then unscrewed the valve cap to the mattress and it inflated very quickly.  I set my bag on top and got in it again.  It was quite a difference.  But, after 10 minutes or so, the mattress had settled some.  So got out and opened the  valve again.  It sucked in more air.  That held for the rest of the night.  And I needed this comfort to feel relaxed enough to sleep.It was easy enough to deflate, just open the valve and roll it up.  The strap works great to store it.For anybody who is thinking about camping in the woods after having not done it, I think you’ll want this.


Secure and comfortable. I like these better than my name-brand ones I use for my cable machine at home and the ones available at the box gym I used to go to. The reason I like them better is because they are way more secure. The ones I have are all velcro and if you are hooked onto a heavy cable then the velcro has come off before. These ones do not entirely depend on the velcro because they are made with the two metal rings that close and then you clip to the machine with those. Much better and safer. They are padded so they are comfortable. The only thing I don't like is that I can't get the circumference small enough to tightly wrap my ankle so they are loose (I have small ankles). However, that's not too big a deal I still prefer these over the other ones. Additionally, they did come with a chemical smell which I do not like but I will leave them out in the open to air out. If it doesn't dissipate I will report back, but I anticipate that the smell will dissipate.


Day 3 and I am Hopefull. I was skeptical because for a year, nothing had worked except LOTS of medication to control the pain from the herniated disc that was causing severe sciatic pain. I have spent hundreds of dollars on pillows, creams, braces, etc and nothing has worked out.I see this on here and I decide to give it a chance. I figure if it didn't work, I'll send the sucker back. I put it together and use it for a few minutes and almost immediately, the pain was less. I do it again a couple of times the same day for just a few minutes. With each time, the pain was less and less. By the second day, I only took the Meloxicam and had alomost no pain through the day. I used it twice the next day and I had no pain. Day 3, I am not even taking the Meloxicam and I am having no pain. I am NOT saying to stop your medications! Do what your doctor says but I personally think that this is worth a try if you can afford it. It doesn't have to be this brand. There are cheaper and conversely, more expensive versions, but this partiicular one is sturdy and does what it says (for me anyway).


Pretty Good. I haven’t been in a sleeping bag in a long time.  So I got this and tried it in the back yard.  Well, I picked a cold night with wind, below 30 on the mercury, and it did good.I had no tent which might have been ok if I had no wind.  It was cold.  But I did sleep, about as good as I could expect for the conditions.  I used my field coat to cover my face but the wind woke me up many times.I’m a little over 6 foot and medium build, I fit in the bag.  I feel like my head could have a little more room but it wasn’t a problem.Most importantly for me was having a very thin foam filled self inflating mattress.  it kept me off the cold ground.  And it was much better than being directly on the lumpy ground.  Again, a tent would helped a lot with the wind.Not that I needed it, but the bag has snaps that let it shut without being closed, or maybe there’s another purpose.  The zipper worked great.  The sleeping bag rolls back up easily to fit the carrying bag.I think with a blanket and a tent I would do just fine camping for a weekend.  Hope this helps you.


A game changer for hunting. I used to talk smack on hunting accessories like this, but now I am older and wiser and want to take ethical long distance shots more often that free hand. I haven't used this to reach way out and hit targets, but I did use it in a stand to take a fox this year. The shot was about 90 yards with a 17 WSM. Could I have done it free hand? Most likely. Was I more confident in my shot placing with this stick? You're darn right.It makes a little bit of noise when adjusting the height with the thumb button. I plan on doing a light disassembly and lubing up the spring inside. Either way, it barely makes any noise. It may scare a deer that's less that 15 yards out, but they normally don't get a chance to get that close to me, so it doesn't affect my hunt at all.I sit in a chair, I am 6'3" and the stick has plenty of adjustability to meet my needs. I have not tried adjusting it to full length to see if I can use it comfortably standing. When I have used it out walking, I just kneel and adjust the stick with the thumb button accordingly.If you are looking for a solid rest that packs down tight, this should fit your needs.


Careful... I bought the 64oz which has a seam in the mouth (the 40oz doesn't) and I looked in there today, not even a week after it arrived, to find rust so just be sure to check every once in awhile that everything is kosure. I'm used to working with cast iron so I know I can scrub it out but it's not really something I want to have to worry about constantly.Other than that I feel like I haven't really been able to give this a fair shot but as mentioned, I bought a 40 oz as well which I'm hoping will be better.Also, I'm rating this as "not easy to drink from" (next section of review asks for a star rating on this feature) because I very much want a super fast, super smooth flow so I can chug like my embrava (not insulated) water bottles but I don't think that I will ever get that from any hot drink lid. Still a pita to have the lids be so... Gluggy and slow pour just because I prefer warm water.


Honest review. So I'm a PP mom. I for sure have a mom pooch and I need the stretch and comfortness. But as any mom knows, you feel less than desirable and you hurt in so many places. I ordered the wine colored red leggings. They are more purple than I would have liked but I absolutely hold my samsung 23 ultra well in the pockets. I am currently 5ft6in and about 187lbs. I ordered the Large and I agree with everyone that they do run large (which is rare and kinda a breath of fresh air). So I have the absolute pleasure to return for a smaller size. With the size I have now my underwear is visible ehen bending over but I tested with black and flower undies. Will update with the smaller size.


Good Coverage Tricky Folding. Update: I bought this again after returning the first one. This time I paid close attention to the way it was folded out of the package. I understand it better now. Also, it feels like the material is better and softer this time. I wonder if i got an older model before. Either way, I’m glad I bought it again.Original Review: I like this for the rain coverage. I wore it in light rain but the back of my coat and backpack remained dry after a 2 mile walk.I do not like the folding mechanism. The bag it comes with is useless to me. I cannot get this to fold properly despite watching the video tutorial. O tried several times.I ended up folding it as best I could and stuffing it into the back shown in my pic. Otherwise, it will pop open as it did on NY’s disgusting sidewalks when I stored it in the carrier that it comes with.If there was a simpler storing/folding solution, I’d rate this higher. Also mine came with a plastic part peeled off. I returned that but oddly want to re-order because it serves as a rain shelter at bus stops where there’s none.


Works very well. Works very well to track steps, calories, distance and work outs. Data is accurate and battery life is excellent. I wear it 24 hours and the sleep data has been very helpful. I also use the smart wake feature so an alarm doesn't wake my partner since I get up a couple hours before him. The smart wake sends vibrations which buzz the arm. It works surprisingly well. Even though there is a water lock to allow user to wear in shower or swimming, I have not tried it yet, but plan to. The sensors on the sides are easy to use for the EDA scan and heart rhythm scan. I would prefer to have the apps in a different order but that is just a personal thing. The only other issue I have had is the phone app occasionally acts up and won't allow me to sync data. It self resolves but can be annoying. I chalk it up to consequence of having so much tech these days.  I am glad I chose the 5 over the 4 version for the built in GPS & water lock capabilities. I also recommend getting the fitbit premium account if you are serious about getting your health better. It has additional insights and data analyses that you won't have access to without it. Overall extremely happy with the Fitbit 5 and I do recommend it.


Comfortable, Affordable & Lots of Styles. I have been wearing these all day. I don't even feel them on. They go on extremely easy. They are stretchy so they fit nicely. Even with hand washing they stay in place and I don't feel any moisture underneath. I just bought 2 of the black so I could see how they fit before I purchased more, but I really like them so I am getting a few different colors. I am getting a few different sizes for pinkies, ring fingers, thumbs and I am also getting small rings to use with or in place of my silver toes rings. I would like a variety so I can wear with or in place of my regular jewelry. But  I would like to be able to wear rings while gardening or in the pool. I am really glad I found these.


Maybe I don't love these, but I really really like them. I take that back - maybe I actually do love these. I have about 300 miles now with these and have yet to find a deal-breaker with them.  I hike all types of terrain and haven't had any problems with them.  I never used poles before, but after tripping and falling last year when hiking some really difficult terrain, I thought it prudent to try something for added stability.  These Foxelli's have been great for me.  They remain locked in position for me and I haven't had problems with them sliding out of position, even in very cold and changing temperatures.  I can see how one might break them if they aren't paying attention - especially if using on really rocky trails where the tip can get caught between rocks and jam.  But that’s not the pole’s fault - it’s “operator error".  What I really like is the lower handhold which is sooo useful when going uphill in changing terrain.


Simple versus Stanley. Simple modern every day hands-down! I bought this one because it had my football team logo on it even though I received a Stanley for Christmas. I have since bought two more simple modern tumblers.My simple modern is light weight and holds ice until the next day. It is perfect for my iced coffee. My ice does not melt down and water down my product. Of course no tumbler is spill proof when there is a straw involved however, it does not leak when it spills over unless it comes out of the straw when it’s been completely flipped. I found that out when I hit the brakes and my lunch bag went flying from the car seat to the floorboard upside down. With a Stanley, it does not seem to keep ice as long and I do get the water down effect and it is heavier. also when it tips it doesn’t leak not only from the straw but the straw hole in the sides of the lid. I do have the new Stanley H2O.Another great thing about the Simple Modern is the price.  It’s affordable and I definitely use it. There is a $10 price difference between this and the Stanley.I absolutely love this and and I am definitely more hydrated and I noticed that my skin does not look as dry. I would recommend this cup.


Great exercise wedge. I got these to do calf stretches as I was getting leg cramps. I like how sturdy they are and I will say I was surprised at how much they weigh ( approximately 10 pounds). I really like that when I am using them in my socks I don't feel like I am going to slip off. The wedges lock together if you need more of an incline, I have not tried that yet. I am very pleased with my decision to get these and I would purchase again.


Well built easy to use. When I first opened the package, I wasn’t looking forward to dealing with another electronic interface, but I was pleasantly surprised that controls and the directions we’re all clear and the interface intuitive. It is definitely waterproof and has held up nicely. However, I don’t have a lot of photos because the weather has prevented the critters I was after. I will update when I get something worth posting. The only thing I wish it had was a wifi connection. I would like to dash it in a tree, and I don’t wanna have to go up and down in order to see you, but I captured. The unit it’s self came with a strap and can be made secure.


Love this!! I've been wanting something to keep my exercise equipment organized but never thought to look for anything.  I don't like shopping (even online although it's a little better than going to the store) so I just don't think of it.  But finally I had enough of the mess and nothing in the same place and started looking around at reviews etc.  I saw a few videos of this being put together and everyone seemed to be pretty happy with it so I gave it a try.  I love it! It holds all my stuff plus a couple of my husbands torture rollers.  I have to do a little rearranging for my new yoga blocks but they will fit as well.  It also rolls on the carpet pretty easy.  I only had one hand available and I was able to move it.  I would buy another if I needed to.


It's noisy but there's a cheap and easy fix. For the price it is a great elliptical. The resistance levels are good and I get a whole body workout on this thing. It's sturdy enough for the asking price, but the bolts on the main strut make an extremely irritating noise after a while due to the metal washer rubbing against the metal of the strut. I was pulling my hair out over this for a long time, because for a while I wasn't even sure exactly where the sound was coming from. Eventually I narrowed it down to the bolts holding together the two parts of the main support beam. I tried tightening them, lubricating them with WD-40, but nothing worked. I was about ready to throw the whole unit away until I had an epiphany one day. What if I put some rubber in between the metal washers and the strut? All I did was take a spare koozie I had lying around and cut 1-inch squares out of it. In the squares I cut a slit half way up the center and a 1/4" hole in the middle. I then loosened the bolts and slid the rubber koozie square between the washer and the main support and tightened the bolts again. Now the machine is silent! I couldn't be happier now.


Get ready to feel better. I was hesitant. I have bought many products to help relieve pain in my feet (neuropathy) and give me flexibility back in my knees (5 yrs surgery). Things worked a bit.. or they didnt even aftet a solid month of use.  I was almost resigned to be slow.  An aquaintance bought one and said it was hempimg her. I got one...and started off sitting in a chair and letting my feet go thru the sessions. The day after I first used my plate (3x).. I felt less pain in my feet. After a week, I felt my feet were starting to get some feeling back that was NOT pain. After hot painful feet, this was such a relief!! I actually slept thru the night w/o burning painful feet.I love this plate. My whole body loves it. I dont know why I didnt buy it sooner...but I am so glad I finally did!!I've lost fat around my knees and they are beginning to bend w/o doing every contortion to get socks on. 😆Do yourself a favor and buy yourself one! Your body will thank you for it!


Best sleep ever!!! Okay, so I know this is an "Air Bed" (super-sized mattress) and not a standard or "real" bed but I've tried a bunch of "real" beds and have consistently had lower-back pain when I got up each morning. In desperation I thought I couldn't lose by buying and trying this Air Bed. Changed my life!!! EXTREMELY comfortable ALL NIGHT LONG! As you can see from the pics, I use it differently than most: (a) I found the fabric side with the channels to be less comfortable than the bottom so I inverted it with wonderful results; (b) by inverting the bed, the fabric catches on the carpet better than the smooth side so it doesn't shift when I get on or off of it; and (c) I didn't want to have to deal with fitting sheets so I just bought an inexpensive sleeping bad and it worked perfectly. I have the twin xl version and a double sleeping bag fits just right. I use this EVERY NIGHT and have been doing so for weeks. I do have to top off the air each night for about 10 or 15 seconds as there is a tiny leak. I couldn't find any air escaping so I'm assuming it's getting out through the built-in fan assembly. No biggee, though. I highly recommend this critter!!


Great rower. Pros:  I have been using this rower for a few months now.  This is a great, sturdy, affordable rower! I do not personally have any trouble with the foot straps.  They are velco and very strong.  I love the whole body workout that I get from this rower.  I filled the water to maximum strength and after 10 minutes, my heart is pumping!  The seat is more comfortable than other rowers I have used, and seems to be a little cushioned as opposed to hard plastic which was one of the main reason why I purchased this one.  Having a comfy seat, will allow me to work out longer!Cons: I wish it came with a few water purification tablets.  I don't understand the electronic board and I threw away the manual.  I wish the timer would stay put instead of going back and forth to some other number.


In anticipation of using, I'm going to say it's right up there with Hydroflask. My family owns too many water bottles and most of them are hydroflasks. We've got a few eco vessels and a few generic throw around ones. But I wanted to be different so that I would know it's mine... My wife might try and claim it as hers like she did with another hydroflask bottle I bought.I really like the size and the wide mouth opening and the chug cap. The wide mouth when you have the chug cap off makes it super easy to fill with ice and drink. It's wider than the hydroflask wide mouth bottles. The chug cap is really easy to take off. It has a grippy edge to it.Having had the handle cap for the hydroflasks, I think I can honestly say I like the yeti design better. A solid shape as opposed to having it swivel. I prefer the solid shape.Even though I haven't used it yet I have no doubt that it will perform as well with hot and cold as the hydroflask bottles. I plan on using this for travel and of course those hot summer days on the golf course.The picture doesn't do the color justice. It looks better than the picture. I'd definitely get another so I can have 2 in a rotation... Just a different color.


American AF. I have a really extensive, high quality knife collection and this particular knife I believe would be the one knife I would take if I could only have one. I have knives that cost much more, made of "better steel", superior finish etc, but this is the one. On mine I used a manual mill and a 3/8 endmill (better than filing imo) to take off just enough to give it a sharp 90 deg spine. Not necessary but that's what I did and that is the only mod that I wanted to do. May get a leather dangler sheath for when I want it like on my rat7, but I love this sheath. It's kinda tacticool, but rides high for my liking. SOLID locking in the sheath though. Surprisingly easy to unsheath with a little thumb push. This thing just works well, feels intuitive and doesn't leave you wanting. It's high enough quality that it always looks the part if ya know what I mean. A no brainier. As a (I hate "as a" comments) American, I believe we should be issued on of these at birth.


Surprisingly comfy for a good night's sleep! This turned out to be a life saver on a recent camping trip. I was planning on tent camping but during the night the weather turned and I was pummeled by rain & hail. My tent is great in the rain, but I was set up in a low area and the space under the tent quickly turned into a lake and my tent turned into a giant waterbed. Since I had this in the car, I decided to inflate it and see how it worked. It was pretty easy to set up/inflate quickly and it was SO comfortable! I was honestly surprised at how comfortable it was. I'm 5'0 and had to sleep a little curled up, so if you're taller, consider how you like to sleep.The only downside is in my Mazda 3 I had to move the front seats all the way up to fit it, so I can't drive around with it installed. I could probably pull the pieces out of the footwells and angle the mattress a bit to push the seats back to drive, but haven't tried it yet. I do love the versatility this provides! Now I have another option for camping when I don't want to go through the hassle of setting up a tent for just one night.


Just as described! My machine was delivered Feb 4th. I started using it that day. Easy assembly. Only took 30 min. I use it about 3-4 times a week. 1st couple days I didn't use any bands to get used to the machine, then I started using 1 of them. I rotate excercise, 1 day I do 200 squats with only 1 band. Next day I do 50 squats no band, 50 with 1 band, anther 50 with 2 bands and back to 1 band to complete my 200 squats. I hit my zone minutes but can get used to it very easily which is why I keep switching up the routine. I am on a calorie deficit and this is the only exercise I do. I plan to try using the deadlift "feature" of this machine this week to add more workouts. I love it. Worth the purchase to me!Editing to add: I started using the deadlify feature this week and definitely will continue using it.  You can feel the burn where the squats wasn't!!


I feel like I was ripped off for the bracket… I’m unclear what is happening?  I’ve come back to post about the mounting bracket I bought, not about the light, but about my feelings that the ad was deceptive.  But I can’t even find the link to the bracket. The link that I had in my “orders” take me back to the light only. No bracket.  I can’t find the mounting bracket on Amazon?  Let me just say what happened,  I ordered a second “mounting bracket“ so I could share the light between two bicycles… It was I think $11.  And for $11 my brain assumed I was buying a “mounting bracket“ not “a single 1/2“ of what would be the ability to mount the light on a second handlebar… so now I would have to buy another bracket bringing my total over 20 dollars to have a complete second bracket, which is nearly the half the price of the light… with two more rackets!  But as I said, I guess it’s gonna post under the light and not under the bracket, because the two have been merger something?  The light works fine, would be better if it had some waterproofing. But what’s up with his bracket problem?


Comfy, cushy seat! We just got a stationary bike and it came with one of those skinny bike seats you use on cycling bicycles. It was so uncomfortable that I decided we needed a different seat so I came on Amazon, like I always do, and searched for one. When I came across this one I loved how it looked so I clicked it and read all about it. Even the reviews were mostly positive, and I see why. When we got the seat we put it on our stationary bike, as soon as I got on the bike I knew we made the right choice! It’s so soft and very cushy, it’s such a huge difference from the original seat! I can’t say anything about the durability quite yet since we just got it, but it feels very sturdy to me and seems to be very well made. I’m very happy with it and I definitely recommend this seat to anyone who needs a comfy bike seat.


great for walking, a bad back makes it harder to move. I use this daily while watching TV.  My other half uses it to keep moving on rainy or otherwise lazy days.  I love it.  The remote came with a cheap and possibly old battery - it died quick.  Replaced it with a new and expensive one and it is happy as a clam.  Invest in a good battery if you want it to work with only one button push. I have a bad back and I was hoping I could move it easily, but that was to much to expect of my back I think.  But, I can get it out of the way if I have to just not daily.  It folds easily though. When not in use, it stays in the living room, folded up and covered with a towel to discourage interested cats.  They think I purchased a very expensive cat bed, so that didn't work but the towel keeps the cat hair off it.  Someday I will make a cover that fits it and matches the rug.  I have not paired it with my phone and downloaded the app, I just bring it slowly up to my speed and walk as long as I can.


Great idea. Does not work well. I love the idea of this device. I'm always looking for ways to do nordic curls and Spanish squats. I don't like using a strap for sit ups as I think it's too much of a crutch. However, I was excited about using this strap for nordic curls and Spanish squats. This does not execute at all. First off I am a small woman with size 6 feet and I feel like for nordic curls you need to have bigger (longer) feet to even remotely make this work on the shortest length. This did not work for me at all. It worked only slightly better for my very tall husband with huge feet but not even very well for him. As for the Spanish squat this is where the device works the best. I tried it for sit ups and it was impossible again due to my small stature. Didn't work great for my large husband either. I really wanted to like this but the design is not right. I followed the directions and I am a personal trainer so I thought I might be able to figure out an alternate way to make it work but I did not. On the plus side, the device does seem fairly well built. The foam of the pads is a little soft and dented on first use. The buckle and straps appear quality and secure.


Just what I wanted. I had a jump rope but I didn’t like the super light jump rope cord on it. I needed something a little heavier that I don’t have to spin at a thousand miles an hour to make it track straight. This kit is fantastic, I trimmed the medium cord (the black one) to the size in needed with the included tools and took off using it like I’ve owned it forever because it felt so natural. The medium is perfect for me but I will also trim the other two cords to the same length so I can mix it up now and again. I have nothing but good things to say about this set, the handles are comfortable and spin well, the quick release system works well, all three included cords seem high quality and the case is nice. The extra set screws and Allen wrench were a nice touch and the cable cutters are so nice they are going right in my tool box after I get my other two cords sized. In my opinion this jump rope set is a great value and I can recommend this without reservation.


Well ... if it's all you've got, it's better than nothing i guess. I really wish I'd taken photos of this after i used it the second time. I was hacking at a relatively small branch of a tree for my pet squirrel's habitat. It was the second time i used it and up until this use, i felt it was pretty sturdy and durable. I aimed and struck about 4 times and the ax head just broke right off the handle. I definitely wasn't expecting the head to just fall off. I'm hoping it was just an issue with this one ax and not the entirety of them. Like, maybe i just got a defective or a bad one ? Not going to pay more money to find out though. I hope you have a better experience with yours than i did mine if you do purchase one.


Undecided on these stirrups. I bought these for an overseas riding trip in Ireland. I will be riding cross country and jumping. The place where I ride will outfit you with the horse and saddle, etc. however, I've brought my own stirrups and leathers before and just swap them out. The climate is pretty wet. I specifically bought these because when I ride there, my boots are always slipping off the stirrups due to the wetness of the land we're riding through. I have mixed thoughts on these. I like the light weight nature of the stirrups. I normally ride in MDC sport stirrups and they are quite heavy. I like that my feet don't slip out of my stirrups when my boots are wet. I don't like that they're hard to get your feet back in if you lose a stirrup because they lie flat against the flank of the horse. I'm not sure if they're more comfortable. I have been trying them out during my normal riding and lessons. I will keep the stirrups and take them on the trip but I think I'll switch back to my MDCs for normal riding.


Pickleball is tough but fun.  This set is great for beginners learning how to play. I used to play tennis in high school, and I loved it.  Over the years I've not played tennis nearly as much as I wanted to given work and life schedules.  Pickleball is something that I had heard of a couple of years ago but never really looked into it.  Now, it's the newest sports fad, and this set from Deerfamy is one that I ordered to get me back into something that is like tennis.  This set comes with two lightweight pickleball rackets, two indoor court (orange) and two outdoor court (yellow) balls.  There's also a carrying case that everything fits into.After my first attempt at playing pickleball, I have to say it's a tougher sport than I thought.  If you're familiar with tennis, there's a LOT of fast-paced volleying.  That was the part of tennis that I hated and the main reason I stayed back on the baseline.  I'm not a net player, but pickleball sort of forces you into that.  The equipment from Deerfamy was good at helping me practice.  It's lightweight and had a nice grip on the handle.  I had control of the racket when swinging, so I can't blame the racket.  I'm just not good at pickleball.... yet! :)


Great material! I finally got a chance to use this and I like it! I always just shove my pliers in my back pocket so I can easily grab em, but they’re poking holes in it! Problem solved. I like that this comes with a tether so I don’t accidentally drop my pliers in the water while messin with a wiggling fish. I also like how it smells. Weird I know, but I like the smell of leather more than some chemical leaden material. So far I can’t find anything I don’t like..


Love it. 40LB great beginner weight to lift heavy. I'm a pretty out-of-shape woman I wanted to start lifting heavy meaning going as heavy as I could reasonably handle as a beginner but also without hurting myself or just being psycally unable to lift it.  I chose this 40LB kettlebell.  I think it's perfect. I do my squats with two 15 LB barbells so I went back and forth between the 40, 50, and 95 LB weights.  After getting this one I think 40 is perfect.  50 is the max I realistically prob could have handled and anything over that would have been a mistake for me. I can lift it with one arm, over my head, and do all my squat sets comfortably I get winded at the end but it feels good. I bought it used at 43bucks which is a great deal.  I had to sand the handle a bit because of some sharp bits and it arrived busted out of the box since the box the shipper chose was way too big for this item and it knocked around during transit.  That said it did not sustain any damage in transit. It was bubble wrapped well.  It has a few miner scuffs and chipped paint but I don't care about any of that stuff just mentioning it for the people who are concerned.  I made an awesome choice.


Sublime now vexed, dismayed and disappointed. I waited until I had the perfect place for it. I unfurled and inflated with ease and speed. It slept beautifully! You could not tell it was an air mattress. I thought ok. I’m good until I find my bed! At least two weeks of sleep when I can as a birth worker.  I come home from an extended and taxingly long birth (DAAAYS!). My sister is surprising me with fresh linen. As she crawls to the center to get the final corner… the seam.. TEARS! She sinks. My nephew goes flying at 19 months. I literally broke into tears grabbing him. The absolute JOKE of a patch (note the square) Sticks then blows away as we begin to think of refilling. I am soul weary at730 pm this evening. So instant bond glue and duct tape to the rescue.  30 mins in. It’s filled and holding. So having no choice I will pray I can sleep on it and rest. And have to figure out what the hell to do next. I don’t know about anyone else.. but I done happen to have a spare amount of cash just waiting to purchase a bed on the fly.  I’m so very disappointed.


No small hole in either of the lids. This product comes with two lids. I would be much happier if it came with just one lid, as long as the lid had a small hole to let air in as you drink. Since I have two lids, I may even drill a hole in one of them. I would like to find a was to seal the hole I drill  when the lid is closed though.Also, note that this bottle is 32oz and not 32fl oz as this page correctly states. I knew the plastic water bottles I usually by are 16fl oz so I was expecting this to be about two bottles. Guess I didn't pay enough attention, but that is fine. It bothered me at first because I have 1 propel powder pack in a 16 fl oz bottle. Now I am diluting it just a little more - probably a healthier choice.Bottle = 5 Star, Lid = 2 Star


I have a few gnomes... Most of them are solar.  I have a couple of Halloween gnomes that aren't solar and while I like them, I do wish they had solar and maybe red eyes considering they are Halloween figures.  So this guy tracks with the solar garden gnomes, but because he is all clear with lights inside he is different.  I like him, but I think I would have liked a more traditional garden gnome.  By that I mean a little painted gnome wearing a Santa suit and holding a Christmas tree that lights up.  Again, I like this clear gnome, but I still think I would prefer a more traditional garden gnome with a lighted tree.


Very easy install. I purchased this timer from a local store, just because I was afraid it wouldn't work and could take back. With that being said, this 62 year old female who is not an electrician had no trouble installing this switch. It helped that whoever did the original wiring had the box nice and neat. The only thing I had to figure out was which black wire was the load wire that you connect to the red on switch. Planned on using my tester, but it no longer worked. So I did the next thing I saw when googled. It was the wire that came in from top of box. Wasn't sure I was right, but figured if I was wrong all I had to do was change around. Turned power back on and it worked!!! The worse part was connecting the white to my whites, there were a lot wrapped up together, but I managed. Now for the operation of switch. The buttons are really tiny so not the easiest to push, but I use 40 minutes most of the time for after showering. Have it set so just push the big rocker switch and it starts on 40. You can easily override by pushing any other button. So didn't get 5 stars because of the button size, but I am otherwise very happy with this switch, better than leaving fan on all day cause forgot to shut off.


I wish I bought this years ago - worth every penny! I suck at soldering. My hands are really shaky and I don't do it often enough to get the practice. I can't believe how much of a difference this made over the cheap stuff (which have thousands of 5 star reviews!) I'd been using. It flows where I want it to go, very easy to use, low temp..For years I've been thinking about trying this, but the price compared to others is significant. I had tried a little tube of it awhile back and didn't like it at all. I didn't know I had brought the wrong type  (the naming of various solders is a bit confusing)  I finally broke down a few months ago and bought this. I was getting so frustrated soldering I started buying in stead of making.  It is absolutely worth the price.It's not a miracle tho - I still suck at soldering, I just suck less now.


Bright is a Under Statement. I have been wanting to switch over to LED's for awhile now, but I have held off because the colors of LED's were more pastel and didn't look good to me. So I can honestly say these do look great and remind me of my classic C9's. I still have over 20 strands of C9 Christmas Lights from the 70's that are still going strong with GE light blubs. More than half are still original and look great, but as you can guess my light bill for Nov. - Jan. shoots up a lot when using.So when I saw these lights I decided to try one box. When they came and I first tried out I was blown away how good they looked.  They look so good. I will be definitely getting more.  Well let me redo that last statement. If these hold up this season, and make it through the cold weather, rain, snow, ice. Then I will be getting more. I will update later if they don't, but for now all is good.


Not bright, what timer function? I was excited about this great deal; batteries with the lights were enticing. I thought how easy it was all together.  I got the lights and put them together, put them up, and then got the remote to set the lights. The first night they were great, shining bright in the windows. The second night I noticed they were not all turned on, so I reset them and paid extra attention to the settings, so I wasn't making a mistake. I saw the next night that the lights were again not turning on together. I had to manually turn them on so many times, which was a nuisance. I don't know if the remote was not working correctly or if there is just something wrong with the lights, but they were so difficult to use. The lights were supposed to be on every night for 8hr max. (according to the remote setting) but they seemed like they would turn off after 2 to 4 hours, no matter how I adjusted them and redid the remote. The most upsetting part was that the batteries they came with didn't even last until Christmas. By Christmas day, more than half of the 12 lights I had in my windows were completely dead. I don't recommend these lights; very disappointed.


Perfect. I will absolutely buy more of these hinges when the time comes for me to replace the other hinges I need to replace.  For now though, I bought this set in order to replace a cabinet door that was previously there but had since been removed for I don't know reason, but I had to put a cabinet door back on this small opening because our cats decided that being able to go in there to hide was going to be their favorite hiding place and normally I would not have had an issue with this had it not been for the fact that I have a lot of things I put down there and use on a regular basis and having to remove cat hair from my trays and stuff constantly is not my idea of a good time.  These nickel hinges are super easy to install and it might be a personal preference thing, but I really love how smooth these things open and close.  The material is solid and I really like the looks of the brushed nickel.  If you are looking for a solid constructed, smooth hinge, these are a great start.  I hope you find this review helpful!


if you use festool, with makita vac…it’s a must. it has taken me a long time to work with multiple tool platforms.  Not having a money tree and moving among trade work, construction, and wood working it is also a fact that festool doesn’t make every tool under the sun.  I like the makita vacuum and have really enjoyed it, but bouncing back and forth between AWS gear and plugged in festool devices I got the idea to get this product and velcro a festool power chord to it.  Now when I use my festool planer or sander, I swap hoses (which is easy unlike other extractor or shop vac platforms) and attach the one with the chord.  No it’s not the festool system, but it works for me and has made my desire to get another dust extractor not be a hot button issue.  The older I get the more conscious I am of what I am breathing in.  I can’t say I gave much thought into sanding walls in my fraternity house 30 yrs ago. What I can say is that while I work alone in a job, I will have several extractors, but as far as I am concerned this hose has at least temporarily saved me $900.


Great for any wide mouth water storage jug. Since we had my daughter and the ridiculous amount of distilled water we used for her I bought a home water distiller so I didn't have to go to the store all the time to get distilled water.  The only problem was I was only able to do a gallon every three hours and when I was just using it for the kid that was fine but since we have hard water I've started using it for my humidifiers, coffee, tea, basically anything that water quality matters on so I needed to find a way to store it.  I got a couple of empty jugs and an electric pump to get the water out with, the only problem is sometimes I need to charge the pump and I don't want to leave the water open to our air which is why I got these.  They fit on both of my 5-gallon and 3-gallon just fine and keep the air out while I do whatever I need to do.  I don't have any gripes about these and they work as expected.


I love the sprayer. I paint furniture and I love it. The price is great and it works like the expensive ones. Is a bit heavy for me but I make it work because I like so much. I just wish I could find containers to store the paint with a lid so I don't waste paint when I wash it if I am going to use it again. If anyone knows, please let me know. I just purchased a couple of off brand paint containers but they don't screw well.


Exactly what I needed. These are great! I started woodworking and whittling as a hobby and the gloves are the best. I recently burnt my thumb while cooking and was still worried I'd stab my thumb while working. Sure if I intentionally tried to make the knife go into the glove it will happen, it's cut resistant not stab resistant. I have accidentally stabbed a few fingers but there was enough padding for it to cushion it so I didn't bleed or get seriously hurt. I mainly use whittling knives, though.The bumpy grip stuff is great. I have arthritis in my hands and sometimes things slip my grasp, but not with these.Make sure to order a size down because like the other reviewers say: they run big. I would fit a medium by the charts standards but I fit into a small. I have no problem with the finger length since I have "piano player length" fingers. Your hands will get sweaty if worn too long but isn't super horrible, I wear them for 3-5 hrs at a time.They don't wear down too fast. With what I do and judging by the one month I've had them, I could see them lasting 3-4 months before needing to replace them.I give all 5 stars cause it's exactly what I was looking for.


I used these to protect my chicken runs. These are great!  I actually bought several after the first one impressed us.  Last year, my first year with chickens, I got expensive, opaque, heavy plastic and put around the runs (I have 4).  It did the trick, no issues there, but I had to staple it on.  Taking it off was tedious since I wanted to save it, given the price.  I saw these and ordered one to see how we liked it.  The rivets meant we could screw it into the wood (or use cable ties on the wire runs), making removal and reuse next year much easier.  The little "block" design allows more light inside the runs, which is great because the chickens do need light to stay healthy.  It's a toss up - light vs. keeping wind and elements down so they don't freeze.  I feel like this does a good job at both.  The tricky part came when I had to use them side by side because, while the screws were fine, the cable ties left a gap. I fixed that by using Gorilla tape, which sticks well in inclement weather.  Overall, very happy to have found these and I got them at a good price, which is awesome since my pet chickens cost more than any other animal I've ever had in my life!  They're spoiled, but I wouldn't have it any other way.


Pretty nice. It's pretty nice for your computer monitor. The color match is not always dead on perfect. It's okay, but overall I'm pretty pleased. I was kind of on the edge about this. I didn't know if I really wanted it. I wish that the stands for the lights on the side could be removed or you could attach it to the wall in a sense or had clips that you could mount to the wall would definitely be a lot nicer.Works with Google Assistant perfectly fine.I'm still not sure if I really like it. The having computer lights I mean is nice. I do like it but just not really sure if I truly need it at the time buying it 'll probably more of an impulse than really needing it. But the lights are nice and it works great. And the light strip that you put behind your TV or monitor. Make sure you measure it out first before you put the adhesive brackets on that. Hold it in place.But if I was looking for a gaming lighting system I would definitely would get this I don't do gaming at all. I just I don't know. I like buying things I guess. That was more exciting to get it and then once you have it you're really not sure if you need it.


Warm White Light Bulb. Exactly whT I expected. I got the warm white color. 3000 Lumen or whatever the rating is. I knew these were not dimmable. I didn't see the note on the site that clearly says do most dim these or else they may flicker or hum. My microwave does have 2 settings for lighting underneath. They do flicker a bit only when on the lower setting. As they clearly posted. However, I decided before I bought these to not use the lower setting. Not a big deal. We use it as a kitchen night light. Why didn't I buy the dimmable ones? Because the ones I saw came in a pack of 6 and I only needed 2. If it really bothers me later I will buy dimmable lol. These are good bulbs. I didn't rate the longevity because they have only been in my microwave for 5 mins.


Dressing up the stairway. I had been looking for ideas to dress up the risers on the stairs going to my second floor and was thinking stencils, or different paint, when I came across YouTube videos where diy shows were using this type of dress up for that project.  I had been looking around for awhile for some pattern I liked and came across this one.  It's neutral colors of beige/taupe and blue/grey that should blend in well.  It has a variety of patterns so each stair riser would be different and I like that idea and the look.  Haven't started that project yet as I have to prep the area.  It takes me awhile but I will get to it and I am excited to see how it turns out.  I will post an update when I get to that point.  The strips are a little over 7 inches wide and about 40 inches long.  There are 15 pieces, each a different pattern, all in the same muted shades.  Each piece has backing to protect the sticky side.  Feels pretty sticky so should adhere well.  I believe well worth the $$ if I can get this project done with my time and $40!  We shall see.


Nice, small rack.  Screw holes are not 16" apart and thus cannot be attached to studs. This is a review of "touekeng Garage Storage Tool Organizer,Garage Organization Wall Mount Rack Hanger,Super Heavy Duty Steel Garden Tool Organizer (3 Hooks, 1 Rails 16 in).”I hung this organizer today.  It’s not quite 16 inches long.  The furthest apart screw holes were not 16” apart - more like 15”.  I was close enough to the studs that I hope the screws caught some of the wood, but I couldn’t tell.  I may have to rehang it using the drywall anchors.  The padded hooks are nice, heavy-duty and versatile.  I like that I could configure them however I liked.  I couldn’t figure out what the rubber gasket was for, so I didn’t install it with it.  It was loose in my packaging.  I’ve tried to reinsert the gasket, but it's too hard to get it in now.  I don’t really think it makes much difference.It’s a nice small organizational piece for my garage.  I’m happy to have all the organizational help I can get!  I reduced the rating by one star because the screw holes weren’t 16” apart.


WOW. I am no longer a Sacrete guy. I set a 4x4, 8 foot post using this product.  I made a hole 2 feet deep, 7 to 8 inch diameter.  One package of this stuff nearly filled the entire hole with the post centered in it.  Mixed it exactly as the instructions dictate. I was initially disappointed because the liquid I poured in only filled up a couple of inches.  I was using a 2-foot level to confirm the pole was remaining vertical and then I looked in the hole and it was more than half-way full up with foam and I could see it rising. In perhaps 5 minutes more, it was nearly completely full up on all four sides.  After 15 minutes I removed the straps I was using to hold the post in place, and light pressure on the sides of the post showed no give in the foam, it was solid enough to leave standing alone.  Incredibly easy compared to how I used to have to mix a bag of sacrete by hand and carry the 30 or 40 pounds around.  Wish I had another project needing another bag of this stuff so I could do it all again, it was well, "fun".
