  • Small product picture of a mini greenhouse review.

    Ask anyone who has ever gardened and they will likely tell you how enjoyable it is to grow your own fruits and vegetables at home. Whether you plant fruits and veggies, or prefer to grow a wide variety of flowers you are no doubt familiar with the sometimes limited growing season. With the help of the Gardman 4-Tier Mini Greenhouse you can turn the tables on Mother Nature and extend the growing season of your favorite plants. This mini greenhouse from Gardman features steel tubular construction with a four tier shelving system inside. Each shelf offers 12 1/2 inches of space making them ideal for initial seed growth and small plant display.

    The system also includes a clear plastic cover with zipper access to make getting in and out easy, while also capturing the heat of the sun for your plants. An optional fleece cover helps protect plants down to temperatures of -8 degrees Fahrenheit. Many different companies offer mini and full size greenhouse for use with a home garden. That being said, there are few that fall into the mini category, making Gardman’s 4-tier greenhouse one a few options for compact greenhouses around the home. Although the majority of online reviewers gave the Gardman garden greenhouse five stars, a large number of users were unimpressed with the unit. All of the negative reviews focused on the cheap construction of the greenhouse. Major complaints included cheap parts breaking during assembly, loose fit of support poles, and wobbly construction. A large number of users reported problems with the wind easily blowing their unit over. A greenhouse can be a great addition to any home garden that can help extend the growing season of your garden. Given the complaints about the Gardman mini greenhouse, it would be best to exercise caution in using it in your garden.

  • Product review of the hard floor steam cleaner.

    Are you looking for an easy way to clean your hard surface floors? Tired of getting down on your knees or bending over to scrub your floors? If so, a steam floor cleaning may be what you are looking for. The Haan FS20 Plus Steam Cleaning Floor Sanitizer with Deluxe Sanitizing Tray comes with clear directions and is easy to assemble. It uses regular tap water and heats in less approximately three minutes. Weighing less than four pounds, it is a lightweight steamer. Some owners have reported the hard floor steam cleaner feels flimsy and the power button has broken. Being lightweight, users may need to press down to gain full use of the unit.

    The floor steamer is a chemical free cleaner that produces steam from regular tap water. These features along with the reusable floor pads are good for the environment. It produces steam at a temperature of 212 degrees which will kill 99 percent of the germs, bacteria and dust mites. Some reviews indicate that some of the hard floor steam cleaners generate little steam while others have had no problems. No matter what hard surface your floor is made of, a steam cleaner can help take some of the work out of the process.

  • Small product picture of reel lawn mower review.

    With the green movement, more and more people are looking for ways to save fuel and do things the old fashioned way. This Fiskars reel lawn mower is anything but old-fashioned, though it doesn’t require gas to power it. According to the company, the mower features blades that dull less quickly than they do on typical reel mowers because they don’t actually brush against one another. Plus, the ergonomic handle makes it much more comfortable to use than your great-grandma’s old mower. I like the idea of this type of mower, which gives you a bit of a workout but still, according to reviewers, doesn’t take forever to mow your lawn.

    The majority of reviews I read were pretty positive, although this lawn mower is a little more limited than your standard riding mower. If you want to get out of the house and exercise (or make your teenaged kid get some exercise) this summer while saving money on a lawn mowing service or gas for your mower, this may be the reel lawn mower you’re looking for. According to most reviewers, this lawn mower is surprisingly easy to use. You’d think it would take a ton of muscle to push a mower with no motor, but as long as you have the blade set right and aren’t working with wet grass, that doesn’t seem to be the case. The push reel lawn mower is also comfortable to use, with the ergonomic handle design that adjusts for height so different people can use it comfortably.

    Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were, and are still, a staple in the diet of every American child. Delicious as they may be though, when we grow up we yearn for a more sophisticated treat. At the very least, we look to put new twists on the ole PB&J sandwich. The adult pallet enjoys a variety of flavors presented in a nice warm package, the type of package that is best delivered by the Proctor-Silex Meal Maker Sandwich Toaster. The Proctor-Silex toaster features a clean, sleek all white finish and a compact design that measures 9 1/2 inches long by 9 1/2 inches wide. Now let’s cover some of the finer details.

    The sandwich toaster from Proctor-Silex is fast and easy to use with a non-stick cooking surface and pre-heat and power-on indicators. Best of all, the small design of the sandwich toaster makes it compact and easy to store. Hot sandwich makers are becoming more and more popular in kitchens across the country. This particular toaster is set apart from others courtesy of the low cost of the unit, especially when compared to other models with larger grilling surfaces and advanced features. While the vast majority of online reviewers had nothing but rave reviews for the Proctor-Silex Meal Maker Sandwich Toaster, there were those with negative opinions. A handful of reviewers complained that the handle on the unit broke far too easily, often within just weeks of purchase. Others complained that while the sandwich maker worked just fine, it was difficult to clean up leading them to question the non-stick grilling surface. There are few hot sandwich toasters on the market that can match the value and quality of the Proctor-Silex Meal Maker Sandwich Toaster, making it a good choice for almost any kitchen!

According to the reviews I’ve researched, this model is highly liked by customers who have purchased it. Overall, the customers have noted it is more expensive than some brands and models, but the durability, safety and ease of use outdoes any less costly kids mountain bikes. Whether for hitting some new trails with dad, or just biking to the local park or ice cream stand, this bike will get plenty of use from your son.
