Daily Roundup: Hard Floor Steam Cleaner – Rusk Flat Iron – Door Pull Up Bar

Hard Floor Steam Cleaner: Offering All Natural Chemical Free Cleaning

Ideal for the chemically sensitive or those with small children, the Bissell Steam Mop deep-cleans hard-surface floors using the power of pure water alone. No harsh (or expensive) cleaners means no fumes or residues to irritate lungs or muddy delicate finishes, while the use of hot steam rather than buckets of water leaves floors dry in just seconds. Heated and ready to use in 30 seconds, the remarkably quiet mechanism works something like an iron: steam is dispensed on demand, rather than continuously, by pressing the trigger while passing the mop over the floor.

This hard floor steam cleaner removes hardened and sticky gunk, especially if the mop sits over the mess for a few seconds. (Leave it in place 15 seconds to actually sanitize the cleaning surface.) The machine steams for approximately 15 minutes before the tank needs to be refilled, but there’s no lag once you refill it.

The Steam Mop’s low-profile 360-degree swiveling head accesses hard-to-reach nooks and crannies, like under kitchen cabinets, while its compact profile stores easily in small spaces. Other thoughtful design touches include a quick-release cord wrap and easy-carry handle, as well as a built-in water filter to protect from the minerals and impurities in hard water.

Once you’re done with your back workout, you can quickly move the door pull up bar, where you can perform pushups while facing down, tricep dips while facing the other way, or sit-ups using the Iron Gym for foot stability. Iron Gym is the multi function training bar that combines every exercise you need to build a powerful upper body. Its the ultimate body sculpting and strength building tool that helps shape the upper body and tones your midsection.

Review Roundups Include A Sunbeam Stand Mixer, Farberware Percolators And A Waring Juicer

Sunbeam Stand Mixer: A Mixer That Stands The Test Of Time

I refused to pay $300.00 for a stand mixer, and am glad to have found this one! The Sunbeam glass bowls are very roomy and the height of the mixer allows ample room to work. The assortment of Sunbeam Stand Mixer beaters should allow everyone to mix away ! The 350 watts of power helped blend a peanut butter cookie which can become thick. I found clean up quite easy with the glass bowls and the shape of the beaters, not alot of crevices for sticking.

After hard thought, I just bought this to replace a Sunbeam Stand Mixer 2366 purchased a couple of years ago, which looks identical except for the size of the motor. My Sunbeam Mixer 2366 became unusable as a stand machine because I was too rough trying to attach the Sunbeam mixer to the stand and broke the rather fragile plastic thingies in the stand that supported the attachment lever (so I’ll be more careful with the new one). If I’d paid $500, I would be deeply disgruntled.

Sunbeam Mixmaster Stand Mixer features a powerful 350 watt motor with 12 variable speeds for unsurpassed mixing versatility. Sunbeam Stand Mixer soft start technology starts the motor slowly to prevent splatter. The Sunbeam Mixer ergonomically designed soft grip handle provides both maximum comfort and control. Off-center mixing allows you to add ingredients while you mix and requires less scraping saving you time. This Sunbeam mixer features 2 glass bowls, chrome beaters, whisks and dough hooks.

Farberware Percolators: Trouble Free Coffee Maker

Few things say "American kitchen" better than the sound of percolating coffee. The Farberware Millenium percolator is an attractive, heavyweight stainless-steel addition to any kitchen, providing fast and trouble-free coffee making–and that classic percolated coffee flavor. Leave it out on the counter, or put it away. The short cord is detachable, so you can bring the pot to the table to serve. While the Farberware Percolators pot is plugged in, however, it maintains the coffee at a "Keep Warm" temperature.

Time was when nearly everyone made coffee in a percolator. Rediscover the strong flavor of percolated coffee with this classic model from Farberware Percolators. Water is repeatedly circulated through the grounds while the Farberware Percolator is on, you control the coffee’s strength by adjusting the brewing time. I’ve happilly enjoyed Farberware’s larger 20-cup electric percolator that is still brewing some wonderful coffee after 10 years. All I had to replace was the electric cord, which petered out after 3 years.

Waring Juicer: A Juicer That Can Tackle Large Sized Citrus

If you’re looking for a heavy-duty juicer to whip up your morning glass of tangerine-grapefruit juice, look no further. This Waring Juicer is a solidly built juicer that you’ll want to leave on the counter all the time–and it’s heavy enough that you’ll want to give it a permanent, accessible spot. Slower than some juicers, it’s consistent and powerful, squeezing every last drop of juice from even a large grapefruit. The majority of the pulp collects in the reamer basket–add as much as you like! The Waring Juicer spout pours directly into most tumblers up to 12 ounces, and by adjusting the reamer, you can make the operating switch convenient for left- or right-handed users.

I have used the Waring Juicer for the past 6 months. I juice on average 10 oranges each day. I can state without reservation that this is a good looking, well made, powerful juicer. How good is it? I have purchased 2 additional PCJ218 juicers as gifts. Do I know what I’m talking about? I design machinery for a living. Rarely do I find consumer products to be worthy of praise. This Waring Juicer is a real gem at a reasonable price.

Review Roundup: Salicylic Acid Peels, Room Thermometers And An Invicta Speedway Watch

Salicylic Acid Peel: What Does Each Acid Do?

Glycolic Acid Peel: stimulates collagen growth more effectively than any of the other peels. It’s small molecule allows it to slip beneath the epidermis to reach the collagen fibers below and results in 15%-25%  thickening over 12 weeks. Glycolic acid generally causes little or no visible peeling.

Lactic Acid Peel: works on the surface of the skin to treat tone, texture, and pigmentation. The Lactic acid molecule works to pull moisture into the cells, and exfoliate surface cells which helps to perfect the skin’s surface and restore the skin’s natural glow.

Glycolac Acid Peel: With a combination of Glycolic (25%) with Lactic (35%), it provides hydration and tone improvements of the Lactic, with the increased collagen stimulation of the glycolic. It is generally well tolerated because the lactic and glycolic work on different levels or the skin.

Salicylic Acid Peel: a great kertolytic which means it helps loosen the bonds between skin cells to promote exfoliating. It is the only hydroxy acid which is oil soluble which allows it to penetrate into clogged pores. It can be used more frequently than the other peels without must risk for irritation. salicylic acid peel has many benefits and get raved reviews for the face on Amazon.

Room Thermometer: Does the Oregon Digital Thermometer Live Up To The Hype?

Oregon Scientifics’ THT312 Digital Clock with Room Thermometer conveniently displays the time, indoor temperature and outdoor temperature via an easy-to-read LCD display. This unit features a 10 foot weather resistant probe which monitors outdoor temperature for display to the main unit. A convenient LED backlight provides easy viewing in all conditions. This room thermometer compact unit can be wall mounted or displayed on a desk top or shelf.

After reading a ton of reviews, I decided all of the moderately priced digital room thermometers had flaws so I went with the brand that overall seemed well rated (Oregon Scientific). I also read that remote sensors were problematic so I chose this model because it uses an attached (wired) sensor. I am delighted with the performance of this room thermometer model. I followed the instructions and placed the outdoor sensor in a protected location (the wire fits easily under my window (even with it locked for the winter).

Daily Reviews Include The Presto Electric Skillet, Presto Pressure Cookers And Electric Popcorn Poppers

Electric Popcorn Popper: West Bend Does Theater Like Popcorn

West Bend has improved on the classic corn popper design by adding a motorized stirring rod which ensures that every single kernel pops, every time. In about five minutes, the Stir Crazy Popper produces up to 6 quarts of perfectly popped corn, using one tablespoon of oil per 1/4 cup corn. You can clean it with just a quick swipe of the sponge. For added flavor, place a bit of butter in the butter well to melt over the corn as it pops. The plastic cover doubles as a serving bowl, so when the cycle is done, just flip it over to enjoy popcorn that’s guaranteed to be good to the last pop.

I’ve had a number of popcorn poppers ’cause I’m a true fan, whether unadorned popcorn or ‘fancied up’. When the Electric Popcorn Popper hot air poppers came out about 20 years ago I bought a couple of them, but they always seem to make chewy popcorn that’ll stick in the back of your throat. I’ve got a mint-condition Mirro aluminum electric popper from the sixties and it’ll burn corn in the bottom before you can turn around.

Presto Pressure Cookers: Renewed Popularity Discovered

Pressure cookers have experienced renewed popularity over the last several years because cooks have rediscovered what some cooks (particularly grandmas) have known for a long time–they’re really fast. And it’s easy to cook healthfully with Presto pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor. Presto’s 6-quart stainless steel pressure cooker is a multi-purpose pot that can stand in as a conventional soup pot as well as perform the kitchen magic that pressure cookers are famous for. Chicken Cacciatore cooks in 8 minutes! This professional-quality stainless steel pressure cooker is a handy addition to any well-rounded set of kitchen tools.

Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this stainless steel Presto Pressure Cookers, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The Presto 6-quart pressure cooker is fully immersible; in addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures 9 inches in diameter (17 inches including handles) and 8-1/2 inches tall (including lid). Presto guarantees this pressure cooker with an extended 12-year warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained.

Presto Electric Skillet: Stir Fry Heaven

The 16" size of this Presto electric skillet actually ended up saving room in my kitchen because it replaced both an electric griddle and an old 12" electric skillet. This pan can be used for all kinds of cooking: griddling, frying, grilling, braising, roasting, even baking. The sides are high enough to use it as a chicken fryer or for stirfry. I can check how bacon is frying through the glass lid, minimizing spatter, if any. The Presto temperature control is accurate and the pan heats up quickly, unlike my electric stovetop. In fact, you can get a perfect simmer by turning the knob down just till the light goes out.

Also nothing sticks to it. The only Presto Electric Skillet things you have to remember are: 1)spray it with Pam or some other cooking spray the first time you use it (just the first time), and 2)to maintain the superior nonstick coating, never soak it in water for extended periods (you won’t need to soak it, it cleans up fast and easy). I really like this Presto skillet and recommend it highly. I bought it in February and have used it regularly ever since. Details: Roasts, fries, grills, stews, bakes, makes casseroles and more. Fully immersible with heat control removed for easy cleaning. Tempered Presto glass cover lets you see what is inside. Great for use as a buffet server when entertaining. Heavy cast aluminum.
