LED Ladder Toss

All right, this is one for those who are not experiencing winter right now (sorry folks in the southern hemisphere!), where you get to have some good old fashioned family fun in the garden with the $49.99 LED Ladder Toss. This is an updated version of the classic outdoor family game, as it now comes with a twist as you can tell by the name of the device.

Each time you successfully manage to toss one of those red or blue bolas, they will be lit from within via glow sticks, and not only that, to add to the fun, each rung of the scoring ladder too will not miss out on the glowing action, thanks to the light emanating from energy efficient LED lights. Individual ladder rungs will be lit via a different color, where green is meant for the top scoring bar, blue for the middle one, and if you hit red, well at least that is better than nothing although it is the lowest scoring bar.

Each purchase will come with a couple of LED Ladders, three pairs of glow bolas accompanied by an equal number of glow sticks, and a carrying bag. The entire shebang requires a dozen AAA batteries to to run, so you might want to settle for rechargeable batteries in the long run.

The Best Automatic Hose Reel

The folks over at Hammacher tend to throw in superlatives whenever they are describing some of the stuff that they sell over there. The thing is, who are the ones carrying the standard and enforcing it? Well, if it is an in-house proclamation, every Tom, Dick and Harry can sell plenty of “sound good” items, but I suppose Hammacher has done their homework before, which is why they have managed to stay in business all this while. The latest device to roll out from them that carries a “The Best” title in the name would be the $229.95 The Best Automatic Hose Reel.

Folks who spend plenty of time in the garden would be able to know just how useful it is to have a hose reel ready, and just how the heck did it pick up the “The Best” rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute? Well, it did so because it was the easiest to retract and most durable, and analysts have already done their bit to retract each model 50 times, making The Best Automatic Hose Reel being the only model that retracted every single time without fail. Kiss goodbye to required multiple tugs, as you can snake the Best model around the garden nonchalantly with its 66′ hose, in addition to its ability to swivel 180° when mounted to a wall and 360° when mounted to a deck surface.

Portable Tabletop Mosquito Repeller

Love spending most of your time outdoors rather than indoors? If that is the case, then chances are pretty high that you are used to being mosquito fodder, considering the kind of healthy blood that you carry. Well, you can never quite take your chances with mosquitoes as some of them do carry a potentially life threatening disease, and slathering yourself in mosquito repellent is only half the job done. Enter the $29.95 Portable Tabletop Mosquito Repeller that does according to its namesake – offering you (and those sitting around it) ample relief from the airborne, blood sucking pests whenever you and your family members or mates are in an outdoor setting.

The Portable Tabletop Mosquito Repeller would come across as being a wee bit larger compared to your regular soda can, where this cordless device would stand in an unobtrusive manner, never mind that you have placed it on a patio table or picnic bench. It will still be able to work regardless, automatically emitting the safe, subtle floral scent of geranium, peppermint and lemongrass, which so happen to be plant-derived essential oils which naturally repel mosquitoes, gnats, and midges. This does away with the need for them nasty chemical-based sprays, while its integrated fan would help distribute the repellent in order to provide protection from mosquitos across 15′ sq. of space. A couple of AA batteries would keep this puppy going for up to 8 hours.

MP3 BBQ Grill

There is nothing quite like the feeling of having not only good food (especially a BBQ, of course!), but also to have great music to go along with it.

Remote Controlled Backyard Mosquito Mister

Sometimes, I do wonder whether some animals in this world are redundant. Case in point, does the pro of mosquito larvae being food for select animals outweigh the potential pest factor of a fully grown adult mosquito? Getting bitten by mosquitoes whenever you go out on a camping trip is no fun at all, you know. Thank goodness the advancements of technology in the modern world has led us to this particular road – a $299.95 Remote Controlled Backyard Mosquito Mister.

Should the Remote Controlled Backyard Mosquito Mister live up to its reputation (or at least, product description), then this backyard mister is capable of repelling mosquitoes within a 2,000 square feet area, and not only that, it can also be operated remotely from a safe distance away. It will rely on EPA-registered permethrin to get the job done, which so happens to be a synthetic form of naturally occurring pyrethrin that is derived from chrysanthemum, where it is good enough to kill up to 90% of mosquitoes, flies, gnats, no-see-ums, ticks, and other biting insects while repelling them for up to half a dozen hours with a mere four-minute misting. Don’t worry about toxicity levels, as permethrin biodegrades so fast, it is safe and gentle on the environment.

They say that cooking is an art, and for those of us who happen to burn the pot while one is boiling water, it goes without saying the kitchen is a whole lot better off without you in it. The thing is, you have this passion to tinker around the kitchen much to the chagrin of everyone else living under the same roof as you, but thank goodness technology has progressed to such a stage where it is able to help out even the most clueless of chefs.

Shanxi Granite Hearth Table

Home improvement ideas are not all that difficult to come by, although sometimes, you might want to get some inspiration or idea from the magazines off the shelf. For those who have a decently sized lawn that has nothing on it, you can opt to spruce it up with the $3,000 Shanxi Granite Hearth Table. Yes, it is rather pricey, but what do you get for that kind of seemingly insane money? After all, do not judge a gizmo or gadget by its cost, heh!

This is a cooking hearth table which sports a solid granite top that were cut from the mountains in China’s Shanxi province. Individual handcrafted tabletops are unique, so no two grain patterns or colorations are the same. There is a cutout section in the table center that holds a 23″ diameter stainless steel fire pit with propane tank fitting which is capable of delivering a powerful 40,000 BTUs for cooking at your dining area. This table will hook itself up to a standard 20 lb. propane tank, and sports a set of gas fire logs to create the feel of a wood fire.

There comes a time when a man’s got to do what he’s got to do, and this includes clearing up the yard around his home. After much nagging from his wife, of course, and if he were to want an easier life while doing all the backbreaking work, he can always fall back on the likes of the $179.95 Electric Shark Saw. The Electric Shark Saw sports an innovative design, where it is actually a chainsaw in essence, although the safety issue has been tackled head-on by enclosing the bar and chain while employing a scissor-cut action in order to limit dangerous kickback.

Not only that, it even cuts directly on the ground without having to prop your item up.
