Seat cover protects against sweat and dirt, cleans up easy in the wash!

Ok, so here's the deal. I sweat like a crazy person at the gym. If I didn't change into a 2nd set of clothes at the gym, I was using a beach towel to cover my seat - all in an effort to make sure my truck seat didn't end up smelling like a locker room. Both of those options meant an extra load of laundry every week...definitely not fun! The reviews on this product looked great, so I thought I'd give it a chance. I am pretty darn satisfied!
1) The cloth is heavy and soaks up sweat like a champ.
2) The backing keeps the sweat from going through the cover.
3) The top slips easily over the headrest - mine has a dvd monitor and is quite large.

4) There is an elastic strap along the bottom edge which I used to secure the cover to my seat underneath.
5) The only downside I have found is that it basically lays like an oversized towel on the seat, which means it doesn't fit snuggly along the edges. The inside edge sometimes gets in the way of buckling my seatbelt. I wish there were ties on the sides that could be secured behind the seat.

6) Wash, dry, and re-install. It's that simple. And because of the heavy material, I only have to wash once a week! No funky smell and no wet seat!

Wireless, bluetooth, and waterproof....yes!!!!

I have a JBL+2, which has great everything. But I needed a speaker so my husband would quit stealing my Christmas present to take to work...lol! This speaker, according to the description, looked like a perfect fit. Since I do have another waterproof bluetooth speaker for comparison, here is what I think about this AYAL speaker.

1) I got a full charge on the speaker in about 4 hours. If you know electronics, then you know that this can be influenced by charging cords and adaptors. So, your charge time could be more or less.
2) Bluetooth hook-up is easy. Following the instructions and you'll be hooked up seconds.
3) The sound is pretty great. Comfortably loud with my phone volume, and party loud by using the speaker volume. The bass isn't too shabby for a portable speaker - it doesn't crackle or sound muffled.
4) I got the speaker wet while washing my truck, and it's still working. That's a big plus in my book. Next summer it will be coming to the pool with me!
5) The charge seemingly lasts forever. I've been using this for a couple weeks for an hour or two a day and I still have yet to plug it in for a recharge.
6) The only reason this speaker gets 4 out of 5 stars is the range of the bluetooth connection. I know that all phones are a little different as far as bluetooth range, but I can't take my phone more than 5-10ft away from the speaker before music cuts out. With my JBL, I can walk into the house or 50ft away with no problem. Boost the bluetooth signal capability on the speaker and I'd give it 5 stars!

Small but great quality canvases!

Not gonna lie, I totally did not pay attention to the size of these when ordering. I was thinking big canvases, not tiny ones.

After my initial shock wore off, I had to get busy trying to figure out a use for these little buggers. I initially toyed with the idea of making ornaments out of these. However, they wouldn't have looked right with my new tree theme this year. I turned them over to my teenager in the end. Within a day she knew what she wanted to use them for.

As you can see in the photo, she hot glued the canvases together and used them to make an abstract of a cloud with rain by melting crayons. She is absolutely in love with it, and I have to say it's pretty awesome! The canvases are a great quality with sturdy frames. This masterpiece is going to hold up for a long time!!!

Next time I'll pay attention to sizes when ordering because these are great.

Simply Simily is simply amazing!

If you're looking for an alternative to the heavily priced Yeti or Hydroflask but still want the same features, this is it!!!

1) This 64oz jug is huge. As you can see in the pic, I placed it next to a 64oz travel mug so you can see how it stacks up.
2) The ice cube pic is a reference. I filled the jug halfway with ice and added tea. I refilled the tea halfway through the day and still there was ice. I left it over night and, as you can see in my other pic, there is still ice over 30 hours later! Beverages stay cold....I'm talking colder than from the fridge cold.

3) Hot, hot, hot! Hot beverages stay piping hot. The coffee I tested stayed hot for over 36 hours!
4) Just a heads up, this thing is heavy. The bottle weight is a pound and a half, and with a beverage added it hits 5lbs. I guess it could make a great defensive weapon if needed..lol!
5) Because of the weight, it is awkward to carry. I purchased a wide mouth carry handle advertised for the hydroflask and it fits this jug perfectly!
6) You can leave this out in 100 plus degree weather and your beverage will still be icy cold. However, the black bottle does get quite hot to the touch. It doesn't change my feelings for the product, but some might enjoy the heads up.

Oasis bluetooth waterproof headphones....amazing!

Choosing the right headphones can be frustrating. It's not just about a specific product, it's personal. What works for one, won't work for another. So, here's what you need to know about these to make an informed decision.

1) I have charged and run these down 3 times. The first was over night, so no time judgement. I have consistently gotten 7-8hrs out of a charge - that's a combination of music and netflix. I can get a full charge in approximately 2-3 hrs - depends on if I charge at home or in my truck.
2) These are incredibly easy to sync with your phone. Turn sync search on on your phone, push and hold power button on headset until light blinks blue and red, and your phone should pick up the headset within seconds.
3) The sound is pretty great. I don't even have to turn my phone volume all the way up to drown out the gym sounds. Phone and headset volume all the way up will make you deaf - don't try!
4) I can get 50-75 feet away from my phone before the headset cuts out. Remember this is dependent on surroundings as well as your phone.
5) The fit is a little sloppy for me. The ear wings don't adjust down and I have tiny ears. I couldn't make it through crossfit cardio without the flopping off. However, they worked well when I was lifting or walking on the treadmill.

6) The power button is in a funky spot. When I go to adjust them in my ear, I end up pausing my music.
7) The set does come with extra ear plug pieces in different sizes. It's quite easy to change them up to find the perfect fit.
8) I love the small carry case. It makes it much easier to find my headphones in my bag without them being tangled in everything else.
9) It hasn't rained for me to check out the waterproof claims. But, I sweat like crazy at the gym and have had no problems with the set shorting out.

Overall, a great set. I'll use them on days where I'm not doing crossfit.

Great mesh shoe!

I'm always looking for shoes that quickly slide on and off. These looked like the perfect fit for me, and I was right. I love how easily they slide on and off. I love how breathable they are - the mesh is soft but still holds up. I have not had the opportunity to test them out in water, but I have no doubt these shoes will hold up to their claims.

The soles are shaped a little funny, but they actually wear like magic. I'm flat footed so I always worry that any shaped sole will cause pain, but I've had no problem with these. The reason for the missing star is that I ordered according to the size chart, and the shoes are bigger. That's a little frustrating. However, they are not so big as to need returning. As for people saying to remove the rainbow strip, I like it. It adds a little pop to the shoe.

Telescopic roasting skewers...perfect for home or on the go!

I was a little apprehensive that these were telescopic, but I got them anyway because we needed something portable. The roasting sticks we use now are actually our shish-kabob skewers and aren't great for hauling around or storing in the kitchen. These little sticks are great!

1) As you can see from my pic, they double in length! This is great for keeping little ones out of the flames while still being able to roast like us big kids.

2) I worried the telescoping would make the roasters weak, but it doesn't. I test drove roasting two hotdogs on one roaster - no bending or breaking.
3) Clean-up was a breeze. The sticky from the marshmallow came off easily with soap and water, no real scrubbing. Even the char from having them in the fire longer to roast the hotdogs came right off.
4) The included "wood skewers" are your basic wooden shish-kabob skewers. They are in my drawer until we make a tier cake that needs stability.
5) The carry bag is what makes this set for me. Not only are the roasters not rolling around my kitchen drawer, but I can also snag them and go when we are headed camping or to a friend's house.
6) PSA - A) The tines are extremely sharp. I assisted my kiddos and still managed to poke myself. B) The handles are wood. Don't get them too close to the flames or its bye bye roaster!
