This Garden Cart Is Ideal For Any Garden Or Landscaping Job
September 7th, 2018
When help is needed around the yard, nothing is better than the Tricam Garden Cart. Made from durable steel mesh and able to hold 400 pounds, this garden cart is great for hauling mulch, plants, rock and flowerbeds. It features removable sides that allow it to turn into a flatbed, as well as a straight padded handle and 10-inch all-terrain tires. The heavy duty handle allows it to be pulled by hand, navigating around sharp turns and corners. The Tricam garden cart is unique in that it is made from a steel mesh material that measures out at 18-inches by 34-inches. Many other garden carts are made from wood or galvanized steel, not a mesh material.
Customers have been satisfied with this heavy duty garden cart compared to other utility carts on the market, as it transforms into a flatbed, allowing it to carry large bags of rock or soil. And with four wheels as opposed to two with wheelbarrows, pulling the cart is easy to do and allows up to 400 pounds to be carried; most other garden carts only hold 300-350 pounds. Although most customers had great things to say about the garden dump cart, there were a few concerns. First, the garden cart was difficult to put together, so it’s recommended that someone who knows their way with screwdrivers and bolts puts the cart together. Second, some customers felt that the metal garden cart wouldn’t be able to hold the 400 pounds it promises. This is an observation however, as most customers had no problem pulling away their landscaping materials. Overall, this garden cart is great for gardening jobs and takes the work out of hauling heavy plants and rocks.

The Mantis Electric Tiller Features 3 Speeds In A Lightweight Design
September 6th, 2018
Planters and gardeners everywhere will tell you that one of the most exhausting tasks related to their favorite hobby is preparing the Earth for planting. Seeds and young plants can’t just be thrown onto the ground and expected to grow. They need to have the ground churned up first so they can be buried safely below ground. This can be a back breaking task if completed manually, or it can be done easily with the help of a power tool. The Mantis 3-Speed Electric Tiller/Cultivator is the perfect electric tiller tool for churning up the ground in preparation for planting. The electric tiller from Mantis is economically friendly option.
Just plug it into the nearest outlet, pull the auto start trigger, and away you go! The Mantis tiller features a compact design that allows for easy maneuvering, and at just 21 pounds it is easy to handle. The reversible tines on the Mantis allow it to churn as deep as 10 inches into the soil, or effectively churn up just the top two or three inches of soil. A variety of tillers are available on the market, all with varying capabilities. Gas powered tillers often possess greater power, but electric tillers like this model from Mantis are closing the gap. Although the majority of online reviewers gave the Mantis electric tiller a 5-star rating, there were also a number of reviewers that had a negative experience with this unit. The most common complaint was that the Mantis tiller is too light and does not cut into harder soils or tear up grassy or weeded areas. Others complained of units that fell apart or failed to operate after just a few uses.

OXO Balloon Whisk Is Perfectly Shaped To Provide Maximum Aeration
September 5th, 2018
When you need a whisk, wire whisks are more productive than plastic whisks. The Good Grips 11″ balloon whisk claims to offer ten wire loops which do not contact one another at any point, making it perfect whisk for whisking. The ergonomics of the whisk offer great abilities to whisk anything. With the larger stainless steel wires on the whisk, you can use it and clean it without it being a health risk because of leftover food. The balloon whisk is very sturdy and is the perfect medium size for eggs, gravy, or smaller items. It is safe to use in the dishwasher. This balloon whisk is well made, with ferrule joined seamlessly with the wires.
Because of this design, no food is trapped inside which makes the whisk easier to clean and alleviates the risk of rust. It has great seals at the base of the wires. This is particularly important because it keeps the whisk sanitary by alleviating the risk of pieces getting caught inside. The handle has a contoured grip which makes it easy to hold. It works well for baking, especially in larger quantities. Stainless steel looks better than rubber, with a good grip for continual whisking. The balloon shape allows the wires to adapt to the shape of the saucepan or the bowl in which it is being used. It is more viable than using a plastic kitchen whisk because it can go all around an internal surface which a plastic whisk cannot.

Want to enjoy a new inflatable pool but are discouraged by the bugs, leaves, and other muck that they attract? Don’t spend your time, energy and precious patience trying to craft a homemade cover from a tarp or other material. Check out this ready to go solution- an Intex Pool cover. The cover will fit snugly on 8’ diameter pools and does wonders to keep your water clean and free of debris. Gone are the days when you must dig out a net or venture in with your bare hands to get your pool ready to enjoy. Just pop the cover off and you are ready for fun. A unique feature of the pool is several holes on top of the cover.
A cover is not supposed to have holes, right? However, these serve to keep your cover from getting bogged down from rain and becoming too heavy to lift off. Many won’t understand or appreciate the design until they go to swim after a heavy rain and are able to lift off the Intex Pool Cover easily. With other covers, you might have to really bulk up at the gym to get it off! So, get ready to cool off in a clean pool and float away the stresses of the day!

OXO Kitchen Tool Set Includes The Important Everyday Kitchen Tools
August 22nd, 2018
If you have never moved into your own place before, you wouldn’t understand what a blessing the OXO Good Grips 15-Piece Everyday Kitchen Tool Set can be. The OXO set has everything you need to help you cook in your first kitchen (aside from pots and pans). The kit includes everything you could need for your kitchen and really simplifies the process of collecting that first batch of kitchen tools. Some of the tools included are a swivel peeler, ice cream scoop, potato masher, can opener, balloon whisk, spatula, meat tenderizer and pizza wheel. The stainless steel safe utensil holder is dishwasher and comes with a removable drip tray.
The most common compliment is the most expected, seeing as this tool set is named “The Good Grip.” Many people are impressed with how easy it is to hold these OXO tools while working with them, particularly the plane grater and the pizza cutter. Many people are also amazed at the overall value of the set. Each individual tool comes in at just under seven dollars each, which is far cheaper than what it would cost you to collect each tool individually. The biggest complaint about this OXO set is the small container that is included with it. It’s not able to effectively store all of the tools. This is a common complaint about many of the kitchen tool sets, including the popular Kitchen Aid 17 Piece Starter Set. Many have also complained about the cost associated with this set, but there is a price on quality.

Most of us spend a lot of time in our home. Why not make the air that surrounds us cleaner, fresher and overall healthier? There are many air purifiers out there on the market, and this Honeywell model looks to have some nice features that makes it worth purchase consideration. The Honeywell Compact Air Purifier is small enough to be used on a tabletop, bookcase or dresser top and is designed to purify a room or area up to 85 square feet. A three-stage filtration system is the highlight of this Honeywell Air Purifier. It offers a pre-filter that is washable, a permanent HEPA-type filter plus an optional ionizer.
These three stages combine to help remove 99 percent of pet dander, smoke, pollen, dust and spores from the air, leaving the room fresher and cleaner. It also offers three cleaning selections as well as an indicator light that lets you know when the main filter needs cleaning. Small enough to be stored easily, it’s also readily portable to any room in the house. At night, the Honeywell electronic air cleaner emits a soft illumination. Consumers weighing in about this product online were overall positive. It should be noted that some consumers found the air purifier not as quiet as advertised, stating that the unit could be overly noisy. Most, however, felt the purifier did a nice job of living up to its claims and did help eliminate dust and smoke from the air.
