This weight is adjustable from 2.5 lbs. to 25lbs.  You can use the adjustable lever to change the weight plates on both sides of this dumbbell.  I thought it was worth the extra money so I didn't have lots of different weights of dumbells around.   At the start it was very easy to move the lever to adjust the weight.  Over time it has become a work out in itself to ...

I am one of those people who is terrified of getting skin cancer.  I grew up when having a tan meant you were healthy.  I don't tan anymore so I am always on the lookout for a product that gives a glow. I thought maybe this one would work.  It is supposed to gradually make your skin darker.  I tried it only on my face.  My face is naturally lighter than the rest of ...

This is the Tickle Me Elmo TMX that came out last Christmas and it was impossible to get your hands on.  Thank goodness they seem to be plentiful in stores now.  I was worried that it was not worth the $40 to buy another Tickle Me Elmo when we had one of the older models.  It was very much worth it.  This new version still laughs and shakes, but now he sits, stands and rolls...

My child fell in love with this little Elmo in the store.  He is about 10 inches tall and his mouth is cut half way around his head so the top half of his head flaps up when you shake it.  He has many sayings that he says.  He only talks when his head is flapped up so it makes it seem like he is talking then being quiet to play a game with the child.  He does his famous laug...

This is a food chopper that has a three cup container.  It runs on high and low speed only.  There are no specialty chopping functions.  It does well with a more watery or soft mixture such as salsa or pesto.  You can put in a whole 3 cups and not have a problem chopping.  When you are trying to chop something that is a little harder such as carrots or onions it doesn&#...

This is a wonderful stroller.  It comes in many different colors so you can find one you like.  It is a little bigger than a normal umbrella stroller, but smaller than the bulky car seat strollers.  When folded it is less than 12"x12" so it is good for people with little trunk room.  It is easy to fold.  You press your foot on a pedal and pull up on a strap.&n...

I tried this product because I can't use detergent other than Tide for my kid's skin.  It is expensive so I thought I could save some money by washing in cold water.  I think the Tide Coldwater works as well as regular Tide for most things.  I do like that it is more environmently friendly washing in cold water versus hot.  I still use it when I wash towels and socks...

This Dawn has bleach alternative in it to help with stains.  If you've ever used a microwave to warm up pasta sauce in a plastic dish then this is a good dish soap for you.  It helps to get rid of that red residue that is left behind.  It won't take it completely away, but it does take care of most of it.  Dawn has always been known to "take grease out of the wa...

This Clorox Disinfecting Wipe is really easy to use.  The hardest part is getting the wipe threaded through the opening in the top of the container.  After you do that it's easy to flip the lid and pull one out and tear it off.  Very rarely do you get more than what you want.  The bad thing about the Fresh Scent wipes is the smell.  I think it actually smells like w...

This scouring cleaner is great for kitchen sinks.  One of the best things about it is that a little bit goes a long way.  One container lasts me for at least six months.  The crystals clean the stainless sink and make it look new again.  I like the bleach in the product because I feel like it disinfects as it cleans.  That's so important in a kitchen sink where you&...

This dusting spray works well on fine furniture like those made of oak.  It really seems to dust and also polish the wood really well.  If you have some put-it-together type furniture it doesn't work as well.  It still dusts, but the wax of it just sits on the furniture.  This ends up making the furniture look dingy with everyday use because the wax wears off in some spo...

This is a product that you are supposed to be able to spray on the tub and let it sit and do the work for you.  It is supposed to take care of soap scum.  It does an okay job of that, but I have found that I have to do a lot of scrubbing to get the tub clean.  That is not what the product container leads you to believe.  The lemon scent is nice.  It is not too stro...

This product is made to take grease off of countertops, backsplashes, etc.  I have found it does a pretty good job of that.  You just spray it on and wipe away with a cloth.  The thing I use it for most is to clean the microwave.  It really helps clean the top of the microwave when someone forgets to cover the food they are warming up and it splatters everywhere.  It ta...

I was so excited when I saw this product in the store.  Something that would clean my countertops and give it the nice clean finish of Windex.  Boy was I disappointed when I used it for the first time.  It streaks so badly and makes everything look awful.  It probably is disinfected, but I had to go back over it with a different product to make it look nice.  I though i...

I tried this Magic Eraser after seeing a commercial for it.  You wet the sponge-like eraser and scrub.  After it gets to looking bad you can tear away that part of the sponge to get to a new part.  It does work on so many things.  I've used it on toys, carpets, curtains, ceramic stove tops, high chair trays and walls.  It takes stuff off that you wouldn't think ...

This is a fabric softner dryer sheet.  It works great at getting rid of static cling.  I had been using the liquic fabric softner, but it didn't get rid of the static cling.  The bounce alone does not do a great job of fabric softening so I use it with a liquid.  I know that's twice the product, but I have found that you can cut the Bounce dryer sheets in half and th...

This liquid fabric softner does a great job of making cotton clothes feel very soft.  You can line dry your clothes after using this and they won't be hard.  When you use it make sure you put it in the designated spot of the washing machine for fabric softner.  Then you dilute it with water.  If you don't do this your clothes will get spotted and be ruined.  Don...

I couldn't live without this product.  My kids are always dropping things or walking across the carpet with dusty shoes.  You spray the Resolve on the carpet and let it sit until it pretty much disappears.  You can then sweep with your sweeper and this gets rid of most stuff.  If you have a harder stain you can spray the product and let it sit for a minute and then scrub...

I got this to clean my kitchen and bathroom floors.  You have to dilute it in a bucket of water.  It does give you instructions on the ratio which is nice.  It does seems to clean the floor as far as getting mud and stuff off of it.  My main problem with this is the floor feels sticky when I am done.  I have tried diluting even more and it still does this.  It'...

This is a kit that comes with a mop, mop cloth, cleaner and polish.  It is a very labor intensive process.  1.  Dry dust the floor.   2.  Clean the mop cloth.  3. Use the floor cleaner.  4. Clean the mop cloth.  5.  Use the floor polisher.  The first time I used this I just kept thinking it was going to be worth it.  It took me two hou...
