Organize Those Mops & Brooms Now

I hate nothing more than not being able to find my broom when I am ready to sweep and my mop when I am needing to mop. Until recently this was a pretty common occurrence. A broom might be in the pantry, utility room, storage room, or any where else for that matter. I had no better luck with a mop BUT those could be out side drying!

My whole cleaning life changed when I discovered the mop & broom holder organizer by Doko-In.
Now when I need to sweep or mop I know exactly where to look for what I need. In my utility room tucked away behind my door. It is here you will find my small piece of cleaning sanity!

This unit is super easy to install and use. It comes with everything you will need for installation including screws and anchors so there is no need to worry about having to stop by the store to purchase something you could need for installation. It was so simple to put up that it only took my husband a few minutes to have it ready to use. I think I could have installed it myself if I had needed to if that tells you anything about how simple it was!

It is as easy to use as it is to install. The product is made of heavy duty plastic so you don't have to worry about bending or breaking it. The hooks which can be used to hang items with holes in the handles or bags of stuff are also heavy duty. The rollers will easily grip handles of brooms,mops, and even larger handles like shovels or rakes. Once you insert the handle the roller adjusts to firmly grip and hole the item in place. I have not experienced any items falling because of weight or the rollers loosing their grip. It is quick and easy to put items up as you rush by and I have not had any to fall back out. Even in a hurry and on the go this is an item of choice to use!

The unit also comes with a couple bonus single units you can install. My hubby has decided since I am having such good luck with the one I am using that he is going to take those for his garage. So even if mops and brooms are already under control at your house you can still find a purpose for this product!

OOOHHH Cushy Soft

I work in an office and sit for the largest part of my day. We all know how hard sitting all day can be on your back, neck, and circulation. I had saw the Pillow Ease advertised but I have been burned so many times on that "as seen on TV stuff" that I was almost afraid to even think about buying one. I was scrolling though product offers to review on one of my review sites one night and there was the Pillow Ease. Of course I had to apply. I was ecstatic when I got the email that I had been chosen to review the product!

When I got the product the first thing I noticed was that it was amazingly soft. Not only was it soft to sit on but it was soft to the touch because of the gray cover that it was inside. Along with the pillow I also received a black cover. This is excellent because I will be able to wash the cover to keep it clean and nice and still have my pillow! The pillow was not a tiny cushion but of a good size so that even a large bum could comfortably fit, trust me on this, mine did!

This cushion has worked miracles on my back pain from sitting at work. Before my back would literally feel like it was going to break and I would wonder if I could make it through the day. Since I have been using this product my back may feel a little uncomfortable if I sit constant for too long but it does not hurt any where near as bad as it did just sitting in my chair. I get up and stretch and walk around a few minutes when I sit back down I am feeling tons better and ready to get back to work.

This is not a product that can only be used at work or home either. You can even use this in your car. I found it very nice in my car but could not use my seat warmers and thus do not use it often in my car since it is winter. It also sits you up fairly high in the seat so you must make adjustments to mirrors, the seat, and the steering wheel to drive comfortably and safely.

Now the size of the cushion as mentioned earlier is of pretty good size. This is both a blessing and a curse! It is wonderful for your sitting comfort but horrible if you need to transport the product from place to place. It is a bit of an awkward shape and the thickness of the cushion means it is not a simple mush it up and go. You will need a free hand or arm pit to carry this cushion in. I usually grab mine by one of the sides and kind of just hug it up to me and go.

Overall I like this product. It is comfortable to use and helps relieve some of the pain and tension in my back.I feel this product performs as it promises and deserves a 5 star rating. I am very glad that I decided to give this product a try though I was a bit skeptical in the beginning. If you sit and experience pain in your back this is a product well worth trying.

Some Stufz This Was!

The perfect stuffed burger?

 Well I have done it once again! I have fell victim to the cunning "as seen on tv" ads. My son found the commercial for the Stufz and saved it just so I could see it. Well those burgers looked delicious and when he said you could make jalapeno burgers I was a "goner". I picked up my computer and began to place my order. First let me say only an idiot would believe you are getting anything for "free". $19.99 later I have 2 Stufz ordered and on their way in 2 to 6 weeks. I got one free but had to pay the shipping and handling driving my order up for something that I sure did not need but got anyway because after all it is FREE. It seemed like forever but the Stufz finally arrived!

Here is what I so sadly soon learned. I have only used this once and granted I may have over "stuffed" the Stufz. The burger did not have a very big bowl to place toppings in, I could not get the top and bottom of the burger to seal, and I had to try this thing a dozen times before I even got it to half way look like what it should have. So much for simple huh? As easy as 1, 2, 3 what a joke! Again maybe I did something wrong because it seems others really love their Stufz but as for me I chalk this up to another lame purchase on my part. I do intend to try to use it again sometime with less meat this time and see if it works any better but I am not holding my breath for favorable results. On another sad note I made a burger placed stuffing in it and then added a top all by hand and had just about as good of results as those that I used the Stufz on.

All in all I give this a 2 out of a 5 star rating. I do not feel the product performed as promised. I am still very tempted to send them back but want to try it just once more just to be sure there is no hope. Call me a dreamer but man those burgers on the commercial looked so delicious and perfectly made. The only real pro I have found as of yet is that these things are dish washer safe and good thing too or else they would have probably done been in the trash.

Now with all this being said I would like to know how many out there are like me and seem to end up trying this "as seen on tv" crap even though we know it is probably not going to work. Please vote in the below poll and leave a comment with why you do or do not buy these products. For extra credit tell us the last "as seen on TV" product you bought and words of caution or wisdom on how the product did or did not perform as promised. I honestly expect to see more did not than did.

Glade Sense and Spray....Does it Really Keep Bad Ordors at Bay?

I am one of these people that when a new air freshener hits the market I want to be the first in line to try it so I was overjoyed when my husband threw a Glade Sense and Spray into our shopping cart at Walmart proclaiming we are going to try this. My husband likes the citrus and tropical scents so he chose the Hawaiian Breeze scent. When we arrived home he opened the product and plopped it down on our dresser. It has been months since we purchased our Glade Sense and Spray and I am happy to say that it is still working on the same batteries that came with the product when we bought it. The thing lasts for what seems like forever, smells great, and now I am really wondering what the catch is. I expect that the refills will be outrageous so I browse down the Walmart aisle, not at all actually very cost effective when compared to the other spray air fresh units! I loved this product so much that when I found a $2 off coupon from coupons.com through mypoints that I just had to buy another one for my den. This time I chose the Cashmere woods. I can honestly say I like this scent even better than the Hawaiian Breeze. It reminds me almost of a mans cologne. So over all what have I learned as the pros and cons of this product?

 PROS: Glade Sense and Spray comes in neutral colors other than just plain white, the one on my dresser is the light brown the one in my den is black matching my furniture. Awesome that it blends in with my decor in both rooms!

The price is reasonable for the unit when compared to other similar products and from what I have seen lasts much longer.

The refills seems to really last too...thought I found a coupon again on coupons.com for I think it was a dollar off on two refills, I have not had to replace either of mine yet. As an added bonus these refills are only a couple bucks.

These units can be found in almost any place you shop in the air freshener aisle, so there are no special trips to make the purchase.

There are various scents to choose from for these units. I have become a big fan of the red honeysuckle scent this summer and have a refill waiting when one of my units does need to be changed.  

The CONS: The only real con I can find is that after the unit sprays the smell does fade in a fairly short time.

The unit makes a hiss sound that can really freak you out when you turn on the lights in a dark room and it decides that it should spritz its lovely smell.

So now you have my spill on the Glade Sense and Spray. If you like a pleasant smell as you or guests pass through your home this is a great choice for your air freshener. The great thing is you do not have to look like you are trying to mask any terrible odors in your home, you walk by or turn on a light and the smell soon greets your nostrils!

This is the unit I have in my den

GLADE UPDATE:
After purchasing 3 of these units one for the bedroom, den, and kitchen and also my son purchasing one for his room I have had a huge change of heart on how well these units perform. Out of all the units purchased I think we have one that is not messed up. When they mess up they spray every few seconds until either all the spray is gone or until the battery in the unit goes dead. I thought at first I messed the unit in the bedroom up when I changed the refill for the unit but I have since had two more to just up and spray nonstop for no apparent reason. So, all I can say is that once the last one breaks I am saying goodbye to the Glade sense and spray units. They were a good thing for a little while but now are just laying with one battery beside them taking up space that I could be using for something else. I hear the trash can pleading with me to just toss them and I guess that is the only logical thing to do since there is no way to afford refills at the rate that these things are spraying. I must say I am upset and just a little heartbroken because I loved the cashmere woods and apple cinnamon refills.
