QPAU Portable LED Motion Light Review
Get your own! https://amzn.com/B01IBCVUGG
This little motion-detecting LED light has already impressed me a lot. It has a good range of motion detection, and the size makes it super portable and easy to carry in one hand. The little cradle is awesome - you can hang the loop on something or use the included magnet to stick it somewhere useful.
This light takes three AAA batteries (not included of course). It comes with the cradle and three options on how you want to hang it. The first is screw-on with the included screws and drywall mounts, then there is double-sided tape, then a magnet. I chose the magnet because of the location of our refrigerator in the entryway.
Last night, we had a large storm resulting in a power outage. I walked in late at night, this was the only light that came on and I proceeded to grab it and use it as a flashlight throughout the house. Perfect use case and I am really happy I had this light last night.
The motion detection on this light is very sensitive and detects from quite a good range. I am more impressed with this light than I have been with lights triple this price.

Nestling LED Work Light Review
Get your own! https://amzn.com/B017CMAA44
If you've ever used a work light and have wished it didn't put out so much heat, this is a great buy.
First off, let me preface by saying this light doesn't appear to come near the 2400 lumens advertised. I don't really have an excellent point of comparison but for that, I knock a star off since I'm not a fan of false advertising.
Secondly, I don't really care that this light isn't SUPER bright because it is PLENTY bright. For my needs, this is perfect. I painted a room with no overhead lighting and poor air circulation in march next to two work lights and was dying from the heat. I love that this light doesn't give off the heat and still provides the lighting versatility. I wasn't expecting this light to be rechargeable and cordless, so that is also a huge plus. I really just wanted a low-heat work light I could plug in, but this one is small, lightweight, low heat AND portable. It comes with a wall plug and a car charger to charge the light. I don't know why I would need to charge it in the car, but I guess if I were working in my car it'd be nice to have the ability to plug this in while working.

BMOUO LED Light Strip Review
Get your own! https://amzn.com/B01HNFH6D8
BMOUO 2 Reels 12V 32.8ft Waterproof Flexible SMD3528 RGB 600 LEDs, LED Strip Light Kit
I have used many "waterproof" LED light strips. These are no different, but I do really like these over others I have for a few reasons.
First, I really like the power connector on this set. It's super low profile and comparatively a lot easier to hit the IR eye with the remote.
The color on these lights seem a bit weak when compared to a couple of my other lights, but that's not a huge deal. They still create the color well. The waterproofing is pretty thin but looks like it will protect the lights. These strips have 3M sticky backing but don't bother - it will fall off. If you want these to be semi-permanent just use other 3M command strips to stick these and leave on the 3M backing.
The remote is the same one I have with a couple of my other LED strip lights. It has a lot of options, including several DIY color options you can customize by adding red, green, or blue. The Auto option jumps through the colors, the Jump options jump through 3 or 7 colors and the Fade options fade through 3 or 7 colors. I prefer Fade 7 then I slow it down as much as possible to get a nice slow shift. These lights do have a nice smooth transition between colors, unlike some other LED lights I have used. I typically find that to be due to the adapter between the power source and the lights however, and not due to the LED lights themselves.
All in all, this is a great value for the price

Winomo Collapsable Folding Clothes Hanger Review
Get your own - https://amzn.com/B01DQB5A4K
This is a pretty simple product, but it works well all the same. Installation is simple - if you don't want to screw it into the wall and aren't planning on hanging a lot of weight on this for extended periods of time, you could probably use 3M strips and make it even more removable. There aren't any installation instructions in the box, so just make sure you're finding a stud or using the included drywall mounts. as long as you measure accurately, you shouldn't have an issue getting this on to the wall.
Function is also pretty straight forward - it folds out for use (you have to help it along a bit - see my video for details), and you fold it back up when you're done.
If I had one 'wish list' item for this product, it would be to make the screw holes visible after it's installed for an easier installation. It would also be nice to be able to tighten the top screw more after installation to make sure it's solid. As it is, mine is a little wobbly because it's kind of hard to tighten up the top screw before putting the rack on the wall. It's not enough of an annoyance to knock a star off, but it would be nice to have.

Beaumont Collapsible Colander Review
Get your own - https://amzn.com/B017LVT1P0
This is an excellent product!
Why am I excited about a colander? The last couple collapsible colanders I've seen have been awful and sacrifice quality for the "collapsible" gimmick. This does not - stainless, silicone, built well and solid. But on top of that a guarantee and lifetime warranty and I'm sold. I love that this colander can stand on it's own without tipping over and that it can collapse for easy storing. This will definitely be replacing our primary colander.

Drhob Kitchen Garbage Bag Bracket Review
Get your own! - https://amzn.com/B01H8OYIW6
This has great practical purpose, but does feel quite cheap. It didn't work great on my kitchen drawer (see video) but fit a lot better on one of the cabinet doors next to the stove. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit the best in the place I do most of my chopping.
This will hold your bag sufficiently, though I do wish the top piece snapped on a little more snug. It just kind of "sits" there, so I could see a heavy bag potentially slipping. This appears to be designed with small kitchen bags in mind, or small plastic grocery bags. You could probably tape a bag in if you had problems, but in my testing I haven't piled a lot of heavy things and haven't had an issue.
Overall, this is a clever helpful little device for the spatially-challenged kitchen space.

Coavas Window Film Review/Installation
Get your own! https://amzn.com/B00XHXU7PU
This works well - quick, fairly simple installation. Instructions are included and have pictures, which is helpful if not extremely descriptive.
One side of this film is textured with the "frosting", the other side has a smooth protective backing. This is NOT AN ADHESIVE, it's a wet application, so you'll need a spray bottle to wet your window first to create the "stick".
See my video review for an entire walkthrough process of installation. Installation took about 15 minutes total on my small bathroom window. The most difficult and time consuming part was cutting along the edge. The film doesn't cut the easiest, so make sure your utility knife is sharp. I have some imperfections along the edge where some grime had got caught, but it's not terrible and we can live with it.
Give it a try! It seems like it will stay stuck and be removable if you ever want to remove it.
I received this product at a discount in exchange for my fair and honest review. I don't receive any further incentives for doing a video review/walkthrough, but these things take time so if you found this helpful, please give me a 'helpful' vote on Amazon!

Richome LED Motion Light Review
Get Your Own! https://amzn.com/B01DTRD3Q8
This is a great, inexpensive lighting option if you're in need of a motion sensor light in a small space. As long as you know what you're getting, you won't be disappointed. I ordered a very similar light (pretty much the exact same light with different packaging) previously and was a bit disappointed, so I knew what to expect this time around.
This is not a super high-end light, and though it has some weight it does not feel like it was made with top-quality parts. The sensor dome fell off immediately as I pulled it out of the box, but I pushed it back on and it has stayed put so far.
The included paperwork states this light will detect movement up to 3 meters out and 3 meters on either side. I disagree with this assessment, as I have found it to be more like 3-4 feet. If this were placed in an open area near the floor, you might have a better experience, but in my experience placing it on the ceiling above you it takes a bit of waving for it to turn on.
In case you are confused about the "magnetic" part of the claim, the light bar itself is not magnetic. There is a magnetic strip with a 3M adhesive backing you can stick anywhere. This light will then stick to that magnet strip. It's a bit of a missed opportunity that the LED strip does not have a dedicated on/off switch. If it did, making this a removable flashlight-sort of device would have made this excellent.
I have placed this light in our pantry and it lights up maybe 60% of the time when we open the door. It helps that the light is lower so the door opening usually trips the motion sensor, but the other 40% of the time simple wave or reach will usually do the trick. The light stays on for around 10 seconds - the listing says 8 seconds but I admit I have not sat and counted (no one has time for that).
Overall, this is a great choice if you need to slap a light somewhere - just know what you're getting and you should be happy with it.

GAMPRO Car Seat Gap Pad Review
Get Your Own! https://amzn.com/B017SOZPWS
If you have kids or slippery fingers, you've probably dropped something between your seat and the console in your car. My phone has slipped down there, along with Cheerios, Goldfish crackers, and french fries from my wife -ahem- I mean daughter.
At first glance, these seem gimicky (and they probably are), but they are a lot less intrusive and noticeable than I thought they would be.
These are simple to install - just slip the seat belt buckle through the hole and shove the rest down in the gap between your seat and console. Mine fit REALLY snug, but it's essentially invisible now that I have it installed. My wife didn't notice it until she dropped her phone and realized it didn't fall all the way to the floor. I like that the seat belt latch points can still move freely - I thought having a mass around them would restrict motion but I haven't noticed them at all since I've installed them.

Richome Aertating Wine Pourer Review
Buy Your Own! https://amzn.com/B01G378SD4
Full disclosure: this is not a product I would have seen myself purchasing or needing. After using it however, I can see where having this around may prove quite useful.
The spout ships in a good looking plastic case that can be used to store it as well. I'm happy that the box has some instructions - as simple as this product may be, instructions are always welcome. The spout itself is very well constructed - it's solid and feels like it will last. The aeration happens while pouring, as evidenced by a satisfying liquid tornado and bubbling sound as you pour. According to the Internet, not all wine requires aeration and the ones that do are typically red wines.
I was pleased with the solid fit of the spout in the bottle - there was no leakage and it's nice to not have to tip the bottle very far to achieve a pour. If you are a bottle-pouring challenged individual who enjoys red wine, this is a great buy. I think it would make an excellent stocking stuffer-type gift, as well.

Boruit High Power Dual Light Headlamp Video Review
Pick one up for yourself! https://amzn.com/B017SIDBUC
This headlamp is awesome and has some pretty slick hidden features.
I received this lamp in quite possibly the most confusing packaging I have ever received. The instructions are essentially nonexistant, unless you can decode the sides of the box. The pictures on the box and description of the product on the box do not really match the product within, which is sad since this is a pretty great, albeit a little heavy, product.
The two LED lamps are SUPER bright and have 4 features, though only 3 are obvious. There is "SURFACE OF THE SUN" mode, "soft glow" mode, and "RAVE ALL NIGHT" strobe mode. The 4th "SOS" Morse Code feature can be accessed by long-pressing the power button - something I would have known had I actually read the full Amazon listing (guilty).
The light fits really well on your head, charges quickly, and is really super bright. The charging cable is really short - maybe 16 inches. The battery compartment also has a USB port to charge a device through a USB cord, just in case you need to see where you're going in your house during a power outage while charging your FitBit.
The battery adapter is a nice touch, even though I didn't understand what it was at first - if you're head lamp isn't charged, you can use the adapter to use AAA or AA batteries instead.
This is a great thing to have around for emergencies - in case of a power outage or should a spontaneous dance party breaks out in your living room that requires a strobe light.
