Pros: Sounds good! Cons: This product does not work like the bottle says it will.
About a month ago I bought a bottle of Shower Shine Daily Shower Cleaner by Scrubbing Bubbles Johnson Wax Company. I think I had seen a commercial or something that sounded good. The idea is you just lightly spray the cleaner on your shower surfaces...

Pros: Clean, Safe & Effective Rodent Control Cons: Expensive
Recently we had a not so good experience with a rodent. You see a large mouse, or rat we couldn't tell, found it's way into the ceiling above our bed. For an entire week we had sleepless nights listening to our unwelcome house guest as he scratched,...
Pros: Really is three tools in one. Extremely quiet operation. Cons: I just know I'm going to lose the little hex wrench it comes with.
So there I was in Home Depot, 10 o'clock on a Saturday night, wondering which sander to buy so I wouldn't be stuck all day Sunday with a wad of used-up 100 grit paper and an aching arm. I had never owned a sander before, and they all looked so tempting....
Pros: Cooks any grain, easy to clean, pre-programs easily. Cons: Outside storage needed for steamer platform and measuring cup.
The National "fuzzy logic" Rice Cooker won't end up on the pile of fancy-but-ultimately annoying kitchen stuff at anybody's garage sale, alongside the bread machines, waffle irons, and yogurt makers. It's a gadget that earns its counter-space....
Pros: spring traps Cons: sticky paper, humane traps, poison
My first indication that we had mice was when I came down to feed the dog one morning and all the dog food was gone. I was horrified, but determined to catch the little buggers. Here's what did and didn't work for me.

You'd think - with a name like the 'Proctor Silex Instablend' - this blender would be great, wouldn't you? I did and I was taken for a ride. It was cheap as far as blenders go - about 30 dollars. But that was about 28 dollars too much!
Pros: price, great features, ease of operation, ease of cleaning, quality performance Cons: its not free...
Have you ever gone ahead and had your carpets professionally cleaned? If you can answer "Yes" to that question, then you know how expensive that service is. If you've ever watched someone clean carpets, you *know* it isn't that difficult, but...
Salvador Dali. As soon as I saw his name on the wall next to his painting, I knew he was the surrealist I wanted to write about. Salvador Dali. He is by far the best surrealist of the 20th century. He was born in Spain in the year 1904. Salvador Dali...
Pros: Very beautiful and functional artwork Cons: Very pricey, unless you do a lot of shopping
In my current quest to redecorate my home, I went ahead and broke down, and dropped a lot of money on a Tiffany lamp. For those of you that are unaware of what a Tiffany lamp looks like, it is one of those neat lamps with the stained-glass/lead glass...
I requested my Sunbeam Mixmaster as a Christmas gift because my mother has a Sunbeam. Let me re-phrase that. My mother has had the SAME Sunbeam for the past 30+ years! When I lived with my parents I used the thing constantly, whipping up desserts and...
The two things that amazed me about Francesco Clement were that he had been to India and that he was obsessed with himself. An obsession of the female genital, that had to appear in his self portraits, was to such an extreme that it was hilarious. There...
