Folding Bonnet Hair Dryer for easy storage

folding-bonnet-hair-dryerSome ladies love to pamper themselves, and they go to the hair salon once in a while to get a new look which does wonders to the soul, and when you couple that with a pedicure, manicure, and throw in a massage session, you’ve melted her heart. Of course, at the hairdresser’s, that is a prime breeding ground for gossip as well as to catch up on the latest happenings in town. Waiting for your hair to dry is often punctuated by such conversations, but what if you are more of an introvert and prefer to be at home? I suppose you could wash your hair in the comfort of your own bathroom, and get it dried with the $69.95 Folding Bonnet Hair Dryer.

The Folding Bonnet Hair Dryer happens to be able to fold into a convenient size for easy storage whenever it is not in use – which makes perfect sense, really, when it comes to modern day families where living space is at a premium in congested cities. When folded flat, this dryer happens to measure a mere 16″ x 14″ x 6″, which makes it a snap to slip under a bed or store on a shelf. Whenever you need to dry your hair, just set the Folding Bonnet Hair Dryer on a table or countertop, and it can expand from 20″ to 24″ high, offering a 15″ x 14″ bonnet that is large enough to accommodate a coiffure which has been set with jumbo rollers. A couple of speed settings and 1,875 watts of heating are sure to dry even the thickest hair in no time at all.

Eclipse Scented Wax Warmer helps soothe the day’s stress away

eclipse-scentedThere is always value in being simple – after all, a too convoluted design more often than not leads to a headache, as form starts to look chaotic. This could be the very same reason as to why the $69.99 Eclipse Scented Wax Warmer comes in a stylish simplicity which makes it just about essential in any tranquil home or spa. All that you need to do is to plug it in, and it would be a matter of minutes before the comforting aroma of scented wax start to spread across the room, helping ease away the stress of the day.

The Eclipse Scented Wax Warmer will also sport a soft yellow glow that emanates from the porcelain semi-spheres, thereby creating a calming “corona” effect that resembles a solar eclipse. It is recommended for use in rooms of up to 375 sq. ft., anything larger than that and the effectiveness would be a whole lot less pronounced. The Eclipse Scented Wax Warmer comes with a single lavender-vanilla wax pod that offers approximately 35 hours of use, and you can choose from black or white colors.

Best Leaf Shredder makes short work of your leaves

leaf-shredderHere is yet another “Best” device by the folks over at Hammacher – apparently, fall might be still quite some time away but this does not mean you do not need to be prepared to face all that fall has to offer. For instance, after sweeping up all of the leaves in your yard, you will need to bag them and place it in the trash, but what if there was another way to get rid of those leaves? I am not referring to open burning, that’s a big no-no, but rather, through the $169.95 Best Leaf Shredder.

The Best Leaf Shredder happens to be an easy-to-use, emission-free device that is capable of shredding leaves quickly and neatly. In fact, during tests, it managed to go through 50 gallons of leaves in a mere 2.5 minutes, which is less than 10% of the amount of time required by inferior units. Not only that, it did not choke on the occasional twig or let any leaf pass through unshredded. Sporting a cutting system that is not too far away from that of an oversized weed trimmer, the Best Leaf Shredder sports a powerful 13-amp motor and cutting line that is capable of turning 4 1/2 bags of bulky foliage into a single compact bag of rich mulch, now how about that for efficiency?

The Privacy Pillow will help you to keep secrets safe

Privacy Pillow

We all carry secrets. Some are worthy of national news coverage, and others would make our faces go red if our friends or family found us out. While you can always tuck things away in what you think are the last places anyone would ever look, you’d be surprised how out in the open they are to those who are curious.

While a mysterious box, nook under a floorboard, or the back of the closet are noble choices, they’re not foolproof. Well, the Privacy Pillow isn’t foolproof either, but it would be a valid option to hide something. The secret compartment can hold items such as an iPad, as its dimensions are 24x32cm. Of course, it doesn’t have to be a book or similarly shaped device for this to be functional. This has a patented hidden entry point that will allow you to safely seal whatever you want to hide inside of your pillow.

Of course, whatever you put in there is up to you. Hopefully this is machine washable, as storing candies or snacks in there won’t bode well if you forget to take out said treats before laying your head on it. This will cost you around $30, and comes with a soft touch polyester cover. While this seems like a swell idea, I can’t imagine this would be great to sleep on if you’re trying to stuff it full of secret items.

The Litter Robot – Keep the Cat, Lose the Odor

litter-robot-beige-280

I like cats. I’d have to say I’m a dog-person, but cats make exceptionally good companions, and for the most part they seem to require a lot less from us than our canine friends. That being said, there is nothing worse than a kitty litter box. The smell is unmistakable, the cleaning and used litter issues make me nuts. I read somewhere you can train your cat to use the toilet, even flush! My cat’s not having it…

Check out the Litter Robot,  freeing you from the chore of litter box sifting and assuring you a fresh smelling home, the Litter Robot utilizes a patented litter box sifting process that emptys your cats “business” into a large drawer that is capable of holding several days’ worth of waste, leaving you only to grab the bag out of the drawer about once a week, refill the litter, replace the bag,  and voila!

The company has even designed the Litter Robot to use your everyday biodegradable grocery bags, so while you can buy their Litter Robot bags if you’d like, the bags you already have on hand will work just as well. The Litter Robot works with almost any clumping cat litter, and is specially designed to prevent mold growth, thereby controlling or almost eliminating litter box odor.

So if you love the kitty, but hate the box, the Litter Robot might change your life (and that of your cat) The litter Robot is durable, good for multiple cats, is about 29″H x 22″W x 24″L18, and weighs under 25 pounds. Get yours today over at amazon.com for 369 bucks. Here kitty kitty….

Polanter Vertical Pole Planter helps those who weren’t born with a green thumb

Polanter Vertical Pole Planter
Growing any sort of edible plant feels very rewarding. You care for it, watch it grow, and even after taking some of the fruits of your labor, you can continue to see it thrive until the weather changes. Of course, caring for any greenery, such as herbs, you want to provide them with the proper soil, amount of water, and sunlight. Without these things, you’re likely going to be staring at a brown dried-up wisp more than anything.

If you’re a little short on space, but still want to grow things that can be made into food, you might enjoy the Polanter Vertical Pole Planter. This carries a cylindrical shape, and has 12 perforated half inch holes which all sorts of plant life can grow out of. It’s made of polypropylene, and can be mounted horizontally or vertically depending on what your space allows.  This is 21 inches tall and 5” in diameter.

In the bottom of this planter, there is a reservoir which you can attach a hose to that can hold a nondescript amount of water. This means you won’t have to water every day or other day. This will cost you $35 should you be interested in livening up your home with a little greenery. Of course, we’re still on the tail end of the cold months, so this is more wishful thinking than anything at the moment, but it’s always good to think ahead!

Amusement Park Ride-On Railroad rolls back the years in your own backyard

amusement-park-railAll right, you might not be as rich as Michael Jackson back in his heydays before his life began to be plagued with numerous issues, financial ones included, but this does not mean that he did not have his fair share of fun when he was still alive. If I am not mistaken, his Neverland Ranch is truly a place of wonder and amazement, especially to the little ones out there. After all, who does not want an amusement park right in his or her very own backyard? You can also own a semblance of that with the $23,000 Amusement Park Ride-On Railroad from Hammacher.

Sure, you would need a pretty large backyard in order to enjoy this particular installation on your home’s grounds, not to mention being rather well off to part with such a sum right from the get go, but then again you do not need to be a multi-millionaire or a megastar in order to do so. The Amusement Park Ride-On Railroad happens to be a 1:8 scale ride-on electric train set which creates a backyard railroad, including the ones inspired by the types found in iconic amusement parks of yesteryear. An adult driver will sit atop the 18″-high tender, where he or she controls the locomotive’s speed, forward/reverse throttle, and regenerative anti-lock brakes with a pair of passengers in the 65″ L x 17″ W gondola car in front of a trailing caboose.

national-parks-viewing-scopeEach time you end up at a picturesque scene or place, I am quite sure there will be one of those telescopic mounts available, where dropping a dollar (or less) would allow you to breathe in all of the breathtaking beauty around. If this is a practice of yours whenever you go to far off and exotic lands, then you might also be well off enough to own a bungalow on a hill that has a vista which is absolutely stunning. Now, if only you had some sort of telescopic thingamajic in the vicinity. Hammacher ensures that dream can come true right in your very own backyard with the $4,000 National Parks Viewing Scope.

The National Parks Viewing Scope happens to be a stationary viewfinder from the same company that churns out coin-operated binocular scopes that are found at national parks, boardwalks, and scenic overlooks. The waterproof optics will feature a 60mm object lens that delivers 20X magnification alongside a fully reciprocating focus as well as a field of view of 110 feet at 1,000 yards, making it ideal to observe a city from a high-rise balcony or a passing dolphin pod from the deck of a beach house. The eyepiece itself will sit five feet above the base, and there is also a built-in, one-foot standing ring that enables shorter viewers the chance to join the observation. Money might not be able to buy you happiness, but it can get you a view unlike any other.

B00GTBH4Q2_1

Remember them? “Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” But now, I realize those devices, serve a purpose, especially for older people that live alone. I also am starting to see that caring for a parent, or any loved one that lives alone, can be very stressful. Did they take their medicine? Did they eat? Is there a device that can answer questions like that, without me having to call on the phone, nagging all the time?

There is now. Check out Live!y, an unobtrusive sensor system, that gives you a way to monitor an older loved one’s living patterns, and get valuable insight about whether or not help may be needed. Live!y can tell you if mom is taking her medication on time? Eating regularly? or even getting out and taking her daily walk. When something is not right, Live!y will make sure you know it. All this, while allowing mom, or dad, their independence.

The small Live!y sensors are place on objects in the home: like a pillbox, the fridge, and the keys, and the Live!y Hub captures activity signals from these sensors via a built-in cellular connection (no internet required) it then sends you an easy to read activity report to your smartphone or computer, all without you having to call mom for the 50th time, making her feel like you’re checking up on her, yet again.

To round out the family loop, Live!y let’s you provide this info to anyone you want, and let’s users upload special messages and pictures to a unique website that will then print out, and snail mail, a bi-weekly Live!yGram mailer, so mom knows what everyone else has been up to, no Facebook required.
