#xchef Apple Corer by X-Chef - Commercial Grade Stainless Steel

This stainless steel, great quality tool for coring apples and pears is sturdy and heavy duty and gets the job done quickly and with ease. I was so impressed with how well it worked that I couldn't believe I kept cutting and coring apples with a knife all my life! When coring hard apples with it like granny smith, I sometimes start from one side, but if it doesn't go through all the way, I pull the corer out and try going from the other end, and that always does the job. I am very happy with this corer, great buy for any kitchen. excellent corer, great tool to have at home - easy to use and clean, and doesn't take any room to store.

#DigiLuggScale Digital Travel Scale, Premium Quality Airline Luggage Scale From Tribetailer

This is such a great item to have handy if you or your family members travel by plane. My husband just came from a trip, and he kept telling me how he had to guess the weight of his luggage that he had to check in. One of the 2 bags he barely made it with, and the other was 5 lbs lighter, so he could've packed 5 lbs more if he had this scale. So when he saw this scale, he took it and weighed his luggage right away, and he said he's taking it with him when he travels from now on. The design is excellent - the scale itself is like a handle, you use the strap to clip it around the handle of the luggage - so easy to use. Valuable tool to have around the house.

#chefslimited Kitchen Utensils, 6 Piece Cooking Utensil Set With Holder, Bold Modern Kitchen Utensil Set With Floating Heads

This utensil set is of unique modern design. I've never owned a utensil set like this before. At first I didn't use it, just kept it sitting on the counter for decoration but slowly I started substituting them for my regular ones, and I am starting to get to like them. The design did throw me off, as they have square handles, and I'm used to round ones. But they are comfortable to hold and cook with, and they wash out easy. I like that they come with their own stand and don't take up room in the drawers. If you like the design, the utensils themselves are of great quality. I would recommend it for a kitchen with lots of counter space. Great gift.

#HauberkRFID Hauberk RFID Secure Wallet - Soft Leather Wallet for Men - RFID Blocking - Protection for Credit Cards

This wallet came in a very nice box, perfect for a holiday gift. The leather is very soft and has a nice feel to it. It looks and feels expensive. It is a wallet for traveling when you don't want to bring extra stuff. It is slim and fits nicely in a pocket. I was going to give it to my husband to switch out of his falling apart 2 inch thick wallet, but realized that this won't work for him for every day. He has tens of cards in his wallet. This wallet has only 3 slots for cards. The see through window where I tried to put the driver's license in was too wide to hold it snugly, so the see through pocket is only good for receipts or pictures. Therefore, if you're ok with bringing 2 credit cards and a driver's license on your trip this wallet is perfect. If you plan on carrying more than 2-3 cards including the driver's license, then this wallet won't work. I was a little disappointed because otherwise the wallet is excellent.

#ozeri Ozeri Touch 440 lbs Total Body Bath Scale review

This Ozeri Touch 440 lbs Total Body Bath Scale - Measures Weight, Fat, Muscle, Bone & Hydration with Auto Recognition and Infant Tare Technology. It came in a nice small box perfectly packed to prevent any kind of damage to it. Batteries were included which made it easy to start using it right away. It came with a thick manual even though I didn't have to open it. I was able to set up several users just by pressing the buttons on display - they are very intuitive, not complicated to set up. I was mostly looking to have a cool looking accurate scale for home use, the fat, muscle, hydration, and bone mass measurements are a bonus to me because I know that those can not be totally accurate, it's more of a reference. I lead an active life style and eat healthy, but sometimes I eat or drink a little more than I should, so jumping on the scale to track every once is not my thing. I'm more about looks and functionality. I've had an old scale which showed a slightly different weight if I were to step on it several times consecutively. Every time I tried this scale, I stepped on it several times in a row, and the weight was exactly the same. I give it 5 starts for the aesthetic appeal and accuracy in measuring weight. These types of scales are sensitive so to aid in even better accuracy you might want to make sure your feet are positioned the same way in relation to the round sensors for weight distribution and other measurements and also to step on it with bare feet for the other measurements to be accurate.

This is a great sun shade. Click here for the amazon link to product. It is easy to install and easy to use. The suction cups work good, and the roll up button on the side is efficient in rolling it up. It makes a huge difference for driving in bright sun conditions and it looks good. Comes in a set of 2, so I use it for my car and my SUV.
