Innovia Automatic Paper Towel Dispenser Review and Giveaway

Innovia Button

 

I recently had the opportunity to review the Innovia Automatic Paper Towel Dispenser.

Let me first start by saying this is a “MUST HAVE” appliance and should be in every home. What makes this so unique you might ask? Well let me tell you all about my experience with the Innovia. It came mostly assembled all you need to do is provide the batteries or outlet, a screwdriver and a roll of paper towels. When I first took it out of the box it almost reminded me of a bread box but much nicer of course. Installation was a breeze with the included paper template your are assured easy proper installation and if you do have any questions about the installation you can always take a look at their installation videos for extra guidance which can be found here.  This unique piece will fit under pretty much any style of cabinetry within your home,laundry room,office, and or workshop. I choose the Stainless Steel ( like the picture above ) to match my kitchen appliances but you can choose from Black,Stainless Steel,White, and or Red. My husband said he would love one for his workshop but would like to see a diamond plated version something a little more beefy in appearance. I love touch less devices like soap dispensers and our touch less trash can. When it comes to a public place I’d prefer not to handle what others have touched because you don’t know where their hands have been. Amazingly, about 80% of infectious diseases are transmitted by touch. That being said this device keeps your paper towels completely enclosed so that cross-contamination is greatly reduced. Now if they can only if they can make this in a toilet paper dispenser I would be one happy camper. After the device was assembled we placed a roll of paper towels in the dispenser and set the size we wanted it to dispense and that was it. Sounds to simple right? Well it really is and if you need more than one paper towel you just hold your hand over the sensor without touching it and it will dispense more and whatever you don’t take it will retract it back within the unit. The unit seems very solid and we haven’t had any malfunctions as of yet. It is also good for the little ones whom always seems to take half the paper towel roll with them this definitely helps prevent a ton of wasted paper. The sensor works great and doesn’t seem overly sensitive we haven’t had it go off by accidently passing too close to the unit yet.  Another great feature it has two options of power either by battery or a power outlet. As of now we are using batteries because our outlets are too low and we did not want the cord to be hanging all over the place. The Innovia Automatic Paper Towel Dispenser retails for $99.99 which can be purchased at Innovia Home or at Amazon.com. Over all this product is amazing and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Upere Vintage-Inspired Designer Wedge Sneaker Review

ScreenHunter_1035 Apr. 07 21.04

I was asked to review a pair of  ’Aster’ wedge sneakers from UPERE. I personally love all shoes but never have worn a wedge shoe of any type it was either sneakers,pumps, sandals, or flip flops. Well that is until now! These sneakers may look like your ordinary shoe but what is hidden on the inside is hidden heal that can not be seen from the outside of the shoe. I was really surprised as to how comfortable they were as I could walk, run, and jump without hurting myself as I am the known klutz in the family. The only thing about these shoes that I was not used to what the high top but, as the day went on I didn’t even notice or feel it anymore as to when I first put them on. Also I am 5’5″ so they made me a little bit taller and I enjoyed that. I also found it funny that my mother in law felt she was getting shorter and I laughed and told her she wasn’t it was my shoes making me taller. One thing to know if  you plan to order a pair the sizes are different from US sizes as I wear 7.5 and 8 in shoes and they sell by EUR and the size I received was 39 which is one size bigger than my “US” size and they fit perfect and still  some how they seem to make my feet look smaller! Over all they are great shoes and growing on me I am looking forward to spicing up my wardrobe and eventually getting a few more pairs in different colors and patterns and maybe a scarf or two. Upere’s Wedge Sneaker range from $169.78 to $245.00 plus they carry a selection of pumps and scarfs as well. Here is more details of the ‘Aster’ wedge sneaker from UPERE featured product image shown above the navy Bayley pair shown above is Suede upper Navy Blue with an oval toe cap with three Velcro straps and 50mm/2 inches hidden heels with anti-slipping rubber sole. Beyond all question, it will give you a fresh update to your shoe cabinet. Fans of UPERE will know the hidden heels, symbolic star, and soft suede leather make them both cool and comfortable. Wear them to immediately pair with anything: dresses, skirts, shorts, skinny jeans, leggings.  Use the code “UPERE” to get 15% off on their wedge sneakers today!

Wraptastic Review and Giveaway

I was super excited that I was offered a chance to review the “Wraptastic“. You know those As Seen on TV products.

I was really excited to hear about this product because, I bake cakes a lot and I am constantly using plastic, aluminum, and wax paper like crazy. Every time I use the aluminum foil wrap I always and I mean always cut myself on the  cutting edge side of the box, that goes with plastic wrap as well. At the end I always end up getting frustrated and throwing it down and my husband gives me that look and says, “Do you want me to do it?” Not to mention I waste a lot! This stuff isn’t cheep especially the wax paper. After I received this product I put it together which was really easy only three things to assemble. I first tried the wax paper worked like a charm and since the plastic container is so sturdy it makes it roll out with ease. Second I tried the Plastic wrap thinking sarcastically to myself “This is going to be fun”  but, it actually worked and didn’t stick together it worked just like it showed on TV. Last but not least I tried my arch enemy “the aluminum foil” for some reason It will always tear on me and I would get cut.  The included spring loaders that go in the middle of the roll seemed to be to large for the small cardboard tube the foil is wrapped around I tried for a minute and gave up thinking that maybe you had to buy bigger rolls for the spring loaders to fit. That night my husband woke up to use the aluminum foil not knowing that I had gotten the Wraptastic and  ended up cutting his finger on the teeth of the cardboard box that the aluminum foil comes in. By the time I realized what he was doing it was to late  to stop him and ask him to try to put the foil in the Wraptastic. I told him it didn’t fit well he read the instructions more thoroughly than myself and all he had to do was squeeze the little propellers down because they are very pliable and twist it in and it fit!  I just pretended that I knew that already ;) The Wraptastic fits in the drawers with the rest of the wraps so it is a win for me. Also as little bonus it comes with three pre written labels you can stick it on top so you know what roll is in the Wraptastic. Currently the aluminum foil resides in its new permanent home… The Wraptastic.   I am defiantly planning on buying two more once they get in store for my wax and plastic rolls. Only thing that I think could be improved on this products is the bottom feet which, are suppose to be  non slip… To me it doesn’t seem to hold its ground to well and does move around on me a bit not staying in place all the time but, I can live with it.

Kidaroo Crew Review and Giveaway

ScreenHunter_942 Mar. 12 20.56

Kidaroo Crew sent me a set of  Sippy Grab™ Write On Labels and Snugaroos™ Custom engraved designer sippy cup and bottle Koala Labels feature a fun 3D design on one side, and are custom engraved with your child’s name on the other side to review. I really like these Silicon grips because they are easy to use, dishwasher safe, durable, and best part of all they are FDA compliant non-toxic material (Phthalate, Lead, and BPA FREE!)

My daughter who is twelve is no longer a baby of course but, I had her name custom engraved because you rarely see it. Her name is Sommer with a O instead of a U. She uses these grips on her water bottles and soda cans. Which is really great because she can identify that it is hers and not pick up the wrong bottle and drink from it. I really like this idea for many reasons. They would be great for family reunions, holiday parties, or just hanging our with friends and family at a barbecue. We have all been there where there is six to ten glasses scattered around at an event and some one asks the question, “Who’s glasses are these?” Well if you have a label then anyone can tell who’s drink it is. These grips can be stretched to just about any normal size cup, bottle, or mug of some sort.

For my three and four year old boys I chose the write on labels. I found this option fun for them because they are learning their ABC’s and identifying their names and such. These grips came with a non-toxic Sharpie permanent marker with the Kidaroo Crew Label design.  These two boys have to have whatever the other one has and fight over everything! They have these choo choo water bottles that they mixed up and I mix up from time to time during refills. Well now that they have these grips with their own name on it one makes sure to tell the other, “no that one is mine!” I am grateful for the grip labels myself because just this weekend my four year old spiked a fever and had a cough. No matter how hard to try to prevent the little ones from passing germs from one to another they still seem to get sick. So far “knock on wood” no one else got sick. I like to think the not drinking after another helped tremendously. As a mother and all mothers out there know one sick kid is a hand full add a couple more it can be a sleepless nightmare. Over all they love them and helps those little butterfingers of theirs hold on to those cups.  Another thing I thought was cute when they are not using them on their cups they wear them on the wrists as bracelets because Sissy does it and their big brother has a medical bracelet. Guess they are just trying to make a fashion statement. :)

Over all I love the idea and concept that this product offers. Although I would love to see some new designs for the moms and dads in the future.  As for the kids they offer ten fun designs to choose from. These can be purchased at the low price of $5.95 to $9.95 depending if you want the write on or custom labels.

Jewelry Candle Review and Giveaway

ScreenHunter_949 Mar. 13 11.29

I had the opportunity to review a Blueberry Muffin candle from Jewelry Candles.

I was sent a Random candle which happen to be a Blueberry Muffin candle. They must be psychic because I love Blueberries in every form. Let me say I was overwhelmed with the scent it was strong and smelled great. To me it smelled just like blueberry muffin batter I could swear I could taste it as well. I have had the candle for a week now and probably have three good burns left. That is how much I let it stay lit. My husband assumed that when he walked in the house I was baking.  I like the fact it has two wicks as well but, I must admit I was a bit worried about the glass it got pretty hot but held up fine and burned flawlessly. Hands down great candle and scent. Okay let’s get down to details about this candle. It is called a Jewelry candle and is similar to other candle companies who have items hidden within a candle. This one is different because it has a wide variety of jewelry that can be in a candle like rings, bracelets,necklaces, or earrings and can be purchased for $24.95. They also offer wax roses that come in a dozen, are highly scented lasting for up to six months or more, they look great all year round, and also come with jewelry  The roses can be purchased for $39.95 and come in seven colors. All candles are 100% soy candle and burn very clean. I found it very clever as similar companies mark where the surprise is on the outside of the candle Jewelry Candles does not and it is hidden behind the label which makes it more exciting waiting in anticipation for the prize to reveal itself. I am not a candle digger I like to wait it out till the foil package is in full view then safely remove it from the hot wax. In my candle I pulled out a gorgeous silver ring that looks like a wedding set. The prizes in the candles can be worth anywhere from $10 to $7500. I believe mine was in the $10 range. They also have a a candle club that you can get candles monthly or become a rep and sell them yourself to friends and family.

Simply 7 Review and Giveaway

simply 7 button I recently had the opportunity to review the entire line of Simply7 products. I have to admit when i first heard about Simply7 and their products I was a little hesitant I have never had or heard of Hummus, Pomegranate or Lentil chips and I wasn’t sure I was going to like them. After receiving the package and seeing all the different flavors I decided I would need to recruit my husband for the review as well. Eating\Snacking healthy & natural is no easy task these days with the majority of consumer products focused on sugar, Hydrogenated Oils, and preservatives it becomes a challenge trying to find a natural alternative. I could go on for many paragraphs but, I digress. Due to amount of products to try I would like to sum this up with a few statements and the score cards my husband and i filled out on the Simpy7 snacks and their large variety of flavors. Each bag can be purchase on their website for $3.19 per bag or you can buy by the case. our local stores may vary in prices but, it’s worth every penny in my opinion. To put it shortly we were both pleasantly surprised each of us having a few favorites all the flavors were… well… tasty :-)

Here is the score card and some images that were taken during this review:ScreenHunter_38 Mar. 05 22.04

More information about Simply7:

Simply7 was created because of a distressing trend noticed in our local grocery stores: food made with ingredients that most people don’t recognize and can’t even pronounce. Over the years, we have learned to examine the nutritional content of foods (calories, fats, vitamins, etc.), so why do we not scrutinize the ingredient labels on our food as well? Go to your pantry and see if your favorite products pass this test: Can you name the natural source of each ingredient? Do you know what you are really eating? Can you pronounce the ingredients on the label? The idea behind Simply7 was born because many of my favorite foods did not pass this test (and I suspect that many of yours don’t either). Simply7 was created on the ideals to makes sure that every ingredient in their products is not only natural but is SIMPLE. You should be able to identify the raw vegetable, fruit, grain, or legume the ingredients in their products come from. You don’t have a place in my pantry for healthy products that taste like cardboard, so they don’t expect you to have to sacrifice taste either. Simply7 took these principles and established the 7 core standards that our company stands behind. Hence, their Simply7 name.

Kinderfeets Balance Bike Review

More information about Kinderfeets:

I recently had the opportunity to review a Balance bike from Kinderfeets.  I must first say I love the color they had sent me YELLOW like a Bee :-) . My kids have gotten into the bee theme as well. My two boys who just turned three and four where very excited when they seen the box. It was very easy to assemble and all the tools were included. We have not been able to take the bike outside yet since it has been constantly snowing,sleeting, or raining so they have been taking turns and riding it all through out the house. Its has been a hit judging by how much they are fighting over it. They haven’t got the  courage to let both feet off the ground quite yet so for now they are both just learning how to balance and ride. These boys will be experts once it come to a bike with petals. The adjustable Seat will help kids of all shapes and sizes. I also find it really neat that they can personalize it as well with chalk! Yes they can actually color on the frame of the bike and write their names with sidewalk chalk. I do recommend a helmet and elbow and knee pads for when they go outside if you purchase one for your child. They sell for $109 to $99.00 on Kinderfeets website.

Kindersfeets and MumbleBeeInc have teamed up again to offer you a coupon code to get a Kinderfeets Balance Bike for $79 use the code ‘mumblebee‘ as a code during checkout.

Code expires: 3/23/2013

Tophatter Review and Giveaway



I have never been to a real live auction but, Tophatter was as close as you could get. So far I love it and I like that you can choose your own character and every place where an auction is held is a different scene. In the auction rooms you can chat with other buyers as well. Plus  for a limited time, each friend that you invite to Tophatter will get $5 to spend within a day of joining the site. For each friend that buys something, you get $5 to spend within two weeks of your friend’s purchase. Invites are only set up through emails and Facebook friend invites through messaging as for now. These auctions go extremely fast as I assume the real ones do too.  This almost reminds me of eBay in a way but it runs a lot faster and you can actually see your bidders. I am soon to start my own auction and great thing is they connect to Paypal which is really great. Also they have areal time calendar as to when certain auctions are going live so you can pop in on any of these rooms whenever you want. It is free to sign up and join. So if you have something you want to auction off I would start at Tophatter.

Hidden Treasures Review and Giveaway

Country Blueberry - Click Image to Close

I had the opportunity to review the  20  ounce Country Blueberry candle from Hidden Treasure Candles

In the product description about this particular scent it states and I quote “This absolutely true blueberry will make your mouth water. It smells just like fresh blueberries right down to the tang of the peel.”

Right on the money!

Let me first start out That I am extremely picky about candles. If the title says a certain flavor or scent or etc that is what I expect to get. I personally LOVE the smell and taste of a real blueberry plus all the health benefits that go along with a blueberry. So upon opening the package it got a whiff of the fragrance from the candle…..WOW! It was a good wow. I took the lid off the jar and the house within 30 minutes smelled of blueberry, mind you it was not lit at all! Later on that evening I lit the candle by trimming the wick and burned it for four hours as directed. By the third day I let it burn for at least six hours maybe more. Finally was able to remove the silver foil. If you are familiar with another candle maker who has rings in it then you know what I am speaking about. I am not a digger! By that I mean I like to let the candle burn to reveal my prize and the prize is fairly large so by digging you may damage it. The candle burns evenly and the scent remains strong through out relights. After 1 weeks of daily burning for more than the suggested 4 hours a day im about 2/3 of the way through the candle. I would advise to keep away from small children because of the obvious but, it smells so yummy.For your information does not taste as it smells nor would I advise you to try because I already did that for you. Yes, I licked the candle and I admit it was not tasty! One other great feature Hidden Treasure Candles website has is that they also sell tarts this allows to sample the scents. Their candles come in more than one size 12 ounce and 20 ounce and prices range $10-$29.99 Plus a wide variety of scents. You can also personalize your own candle. How great is that? Now they have featured their new Cash candle as well with real cash as the prize. In the Hidden Treasure Candle you may also get a treasure chest with a code to win and iPad.  Each treasure candle will come with a necklace with a value unknown. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

Mega Bloks® First Builders™ Safari Train Review and Giveaway

SafariTrain

I had the opportunity to review First Builders™ Safari Train by Mega Bloks® 

Overall this is a great toy in many ways. It explores their imagination, creativity, and much more. My two boys who just turned three and four are now in love with trains and love blocks so what better way than combining them together.

Needless to say they fight over this toy because they like it.  I also found this toy very helpful for my son who just turned ten who has special needs. They are just the right size for him to grab and he tries really hard to put it together. The great thing is they aren’t hard to snap in or to take apart and are very easy to clean if needed.

Let’s just say with three boys they are a win in our house.

Product Details

All aboard the First Builders™ Safari Train by Mega Bloks and explore exotic places with fun new animal friends native to faraway lands.
