Of the various Braini products I've used, (4)  they all contain
these basic ingredients for starters - (then some have additional nutrition added)

The powder doesn't mix in water without coxing / smashing but doesn't have
settlement in the glass. The drink smells like flax / algae? but doesn't taste as strong as it smells.
This wouldn't be noticed in smoothies.

If adding to water only, this is a good time to gab one of your favorite gummies.
to get the taste out of your mouth.
And - although it isn't a lot - it dose cause burps like fish sourced omegas.

I've just started taking this powder form so it's to soon to know it's effectiveness
but it does seem a good product,

>>> Braini's proprietary blend includes -
> Peptylin (pure silk protein peptides from silk moth cocoon fibers)
> Neurxcel (plant-based omegas 3-6-9) seed oil
> Wild Canadian Blueberry fruit powder (natural antioxidants)
they say it's designed to have both short and long term cognitive function benefits.

It's interesting that they also have this blend in a capsule.
But this powder is 2.3 grams per scoop (2,300mg) - capsule being smaller it's only 700mg.

I make my own DIY laundry detergent with this brand of washing soda and just two other ingredients.  I'm sharing the formula in this review.  It's simple - just three ingredients, and cost effective.  This is for folks with seriously sensitive skin, e.g. autoimmune issues etc.  One proviso: this is not for laundry with heavy staining, e.g. motor oil, but for normal laundry with mild-to-medium staining.  For heavy staining, I recommend treating the stains with vinegar first.  Also note: never use borax or the two popular-brands of castile soap as these are likely to irritate sensitive skin.  Also, when handling washing soda, throw a face-mask on to avoid breathing in any particulates.

Have a large plastic or glass container with a screw top to store your DIY laundry detergent in, a one-cup measuring utensil, and a cheese grater.  If purchasing a 5lb bag of washing soda, also purchase 5lbs of pure baking soda (I use Arm & Hammer).  If purchasing a 10lb bag of washing soda, purchase 10lbs of pure baking soda, i.e. always a 1-to-1 ratio.  Scoop 3 cups of washing soda into your container (with your face-mark ON) then 3 cups of pure baking soda into your container.  Use a cheese grater to then grate 1 bar of Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing "soap" into the container.  Finish off by scooping 2 cups more washing soda and 2 cups more baking soda.  Close the container tightly, turn upside down a few times to distribute the 3 ingredients around inside.  Whether using a top-loader or front-loader washing machine, the process is the same.  Use 1/2 cup of the DIY detergent per load.  Load half the clothes, shake half the 1/2 cup in over the clothes.  Load the rest of your clothes, then empty the remaining 1/2 cup in over the clothes.  I hope my DIY laundry detergent serves you as well as it does me.


After hearing about Chlorella from my Doctor of Oriental Medicine, I spent time researching it especially concerning the possible contamination. Based on the high ratings and online reports, I chose Clean Chlorella SL in 200 milligram tablet form since I prefer not having to taste it. If you're curious as to the size of each tablet, they're similar in size to a baby aspirin. As for how valid the online ratings and reports are, I have my fingers crossed.

Although it took Amazon Prime about 2 weeks to ship this item, when it finally arrived, I eased into my daily doses as per other reviewers' words of caution. Since Chlorella will elevate the body's basal temperature, I balanced each 1 gram increase with 1 gram of Spirulina which helps to "cool" the body. If you have the tendency to run "hot" or suffer from headaches and migraines like me, the slow increase is strongly recommended. During the first week of dosing, I experienced very mild yet tolerable headaches. On a pain scale, they were a sporadic 1 and only occurred in the morning.

The gradual process of dosing will also give your bowels time to acclimate to the "moistening" effect of the intestines. This just means that if you struggle with "dry" intestines a.k.a. constipation, the Chlorella and Spirulina combo will remedy this so long as the dosing is done in daily steps for sensitivity sake.

Going into my second week, I've decided to reorder in bulk. After trying many Traditional Chinese herbal remedies along with following Traditional Chinese food therapy in hopes to heal my myriad of physical issues, it is the Chlorella and Spirulina combo that's yielding the most positive results.

Tip: An Amazon Prime representative explained that this product is in such great demand that even with Prime shipping, it may take up to 3 weeks to arrive as the delivery estimate indicates on my most recent order.


As a dental assistant, this earplug are as advertised! Blocking the high pitch noises of drills, cavitrons, low speed, rumbling noose biosonic, trays’ making machine: any and all noise of a bustling dental office!

I had a week or so to get used to wearing this. Tips: you may speak louder than normal when you first wear them, a couple days and you will adjust. Tell your Drs, managers and receptionists that you wear noise reduction earplugs so they know and repeat if you can’t hear them xD!

I wash them with cold water and soap after each day in the shower, then dry them, because if not, I can’t wear them! Actually, it got softer and adhesive more to my earlobes!

Oh, be prepared to have a sore earlobes for two weeks while wearing them, but after two months now, I’m adjusting well. Wish I had discovered this sooner. I assisted with a 2 hours crowns, this earplugs blocked the drilling on metal crowns so well, I could suction for 8 hours with ease~~~.

Talking with patients is clear when I adjusted well to wearing them. There are 3 layers of masks so I have to raise my voice!

Make sure you put the landyard including to the earplugs, it helps puttting them on and off a piece of cake~. I looped the cord around my high bun and most patients won’t even know I had an earplugs. I did tell some patients and asked them to speak louder in case I don’t react to their sayings. All our patients are very nice and understood completely.

A very valuable earplugs for dental staffs! High recommend to all! It is as advertised, dampening the high pitch noise, you can still hear the noise, but it is much like a rainfall layer covering it. Sometimes I thought they didn’t work and took one earplug out to hear, and oh yeah, they work perfectly. Don’t hesitate, it worths every penny!


I don’t understand the positive reviews. I hit “buy” after reading so many glowing reviews from other healthcare workers…

The stock images of the product and even in the description don’t even match the design of what I received and what other reviewers are showing. The instructions in the description don’t even make sense because of this factor!

The first I wore it was underneath my scrub top at work and I about died from overheating and sweating while doing my basic tasks which are not very physical. After an hour or so I had to take it off because I was afraid that by how much it was digging into my arm pits that I was about to have broken skin. No matter how I adjusted it, positioned it at bra line or lower around my ribs toward my waist, it stretched and rolled up every time. I felt no real support nor correction. It felt way too stretchy for any such effect. I could wrap the strap’s completely around myself with little difference.

I thought that perhaps I should be wearing it over a top to help, but this lovely ballet pink would look heinous and unprofessional over my black uniform. It’s a pretty color in general, but I don’t get it being the only color.

I am 5’2” and currently a fluffy 180 supporting 36H breasts. Because I wear large to extra large tops as to not be strangled, I went with the Large / XL for my curves. Now I will acknowledge I DO struggle with properly fitting bras because I am short between my bra line to shoulders, as my frame is proportioned well, but to a smaller petite scale. I have a true mesomorph frame for hips and shoulders being equally broad, but condensed for a small person. My straps slip no matter how small my band size, and my shoulders are adequately broad in relation to my ribcage. I’ve been blessed with gigantic high ones, to the dismay of any bra, dress, and shirt designer.

I was giving the benefit of the doubt that perhaps I should have went with the Small / Medium (although I am NOT) and with consideration of my top struggles…

That was until I came back and noticed the images vs the item. Unacceptable.


These are some high-quality essential oils that ROBLINK has hand-picked and produced in this wonderfully packaged set! As an avid yogi and diffuser enthusiast, I could tell right off the bat by the scent of this product that they were carefully crafted and devoid of useless additives, which a lot of companies put into their oils to "enhance" the product. Still on the fence about buying these? Read on for some important highlights on this set that may help you out with your decision:

- These oils are truly versatile and work for a myriad of uses: a dash or two into a massage oil relaxes the muscles, a couple of drops into a diffuser fills any room with good vibes, a drop on your thumbs placed on your temples does wonders for migraines, or even adding to a hot bubble bath creates the ultimate experience!

- With 20 essential oils in this set, the sky is the limit for any scent you want to permeate your senses or create your own custom scent by combining oils to suit your specific needs.

- Numerous research studies show that certain essential oils are capable of combating certain bacteria better than antibiotics! I am no doctor but am an experienced researcher, and I can attest to the healing properties that essential oils have on your your mental and physical well-being when smelled.

- When needing to disinfect areas in your home/work (especially during these times of COVID-19), essential oils Lavender and Tea Tree have natural disinfecting properties; a drop or two from this set into a spray bottle with hot water works great.

- Honest moment: I sometimes forget about my leftovers in the car, which creates a wretched smell but I add a few drops of Peppermint oil (increases alertness) from this set, onto a cotton ball and clip it to a vent with a clothespin... BOOM! Goodbye smell of last night's curry and hello alert driver!

Whether you choose to get this essential oils set as a gift for yourself or others, it includes every imaginable scent to appease all of your senses. Highly recommend this wonderful product a 100 times over!


Edited, YET AGIAN, on June 19th, 2015:

Okay, that's it.  I'm officially FED UP with these bottles.  OH. MY. WORD!!!!  These things are SO ANNOYING and NOT worth the money!!!!  I went to Bath and Body Works and purchased SEVEN FILLED foaming hand soaps for $24 and they work a MILLION times better!!  These darn things - you get 5 for $20 and they're EMPTY!  Whatever - I'm done.  These things are awful and cheap and worthless.  I ended up taking one of my empty bottles purchased from Bath and Body Works and filled it with my homemade hand soap.  I was SO HAPPY to throw these bottle in the trash!  AWFUL!!!!!

Edited on June 3, 2015:

I have tried so hard to love these bottles, but after months of use I am completely fed up with them.  The price and the look is spot on - the functionality is AWFUL.  The plastic is thin; after approximately 4 or 5 pumps the bottles begin to "suck in".  Another Amazon reviewer stated it perfectly:

"Further, the bottles asphyxiate themselves over time and you have to open them to let more air in so the soap will pump out. Surmising this is bad pump design lacking proper venting to replace the volume of soap pumped out with air."

Also, the plastic ring between the tube and the pump top wrinkles, tears and gets mashed up after multiple threadings and un-threadings of the top.  I really didn't want to spend a ton of money on foaming soap dispensers as I have five sinks in my house that need them, but this product was NOT the way to go.  The saying is, "You get what you pay for."  It's true.

I'm very disappointed with the long-term performance of these foaming soap dispensers.

Don't overlook this clipper kit. Although it does not have as many pieces as some kits, it has the pieces you probably need and--significantly--you get a waterproof clipper with a premium ceramic blade. It even incorporates an adjustable blade gap. Waterproof, ceramic blade, and adjustable gap are all features often not found on clippers, even those selling for considerably more.

This kit delivers, especially at the price.

How do they do it? How can they be selling a better quality clipper for less money than many other clipper kits? They don't load the kit down with accessories that look nice but that you'll probably never use. So, instead of a dozen length guides, you get four (2 x 2 dual size guides). You don't get interchangable heads that, honestly, rarely work well anyway. (Nose hair, foil shaver, etc--the ones you find in the more elaborate kits are mostly junk). You don't get a plastic stand/tray that will take up counterspace and offers no added value. You don't get multiple speeds on the clipper that you don't need and will never use.

Nope, what you get is the clipper, a USB charger cable, a cheap brush, some clipper oil, a comb and two dual-sided length guides. That's it. But that's probably all you need.

The clipper also comes in a retail box. So if this is for someone else, it's giftable.

The clipper works very well. An excellent deal at the current price.

Let me note that this is a grooming clipper with a somewhat more narrow head. It's perfect for trimming a beard/sideburns/neck hair/body hair. If, however, you plan to actually cut your head of hair, you probably want to look to clippers with wider heads.

I'll also add that the same kit is currently available on Amazon under a few brand names. You may want to shop around to ensure best price.


I’ve now had this for 12 weeks. I use it for longer distances, while the I-walk is used for shorter moves around the house and office. It fails to deliver on most of its promise.

1) foldable: no. No it’s not. Once open and useable it would take a contortionist with super human strength to get this to fold. Try doing it on one foot with someone waiting for you, like a cab. I dare you. The moving parts don’t fit together with any tolerance to allow movement to fold when the retaining bolts are loose. Forget about this feature.

2) brakes: no. No it does not. The wheels have no grip, so IF the brakes stop them from rolling they just slide. The grip strength required to get the brakes to work would rival Thor, and the result of braking is really just wear on the wheel as it drags. I now have a flat spot from a prolonged application of the brakes on an incline. Use your foot. The brakes don’t work.

It needs rubber on the wheels.

Parts: The first one arrived with parts that didn’t fit right. I returned it. The second was the same. Whoever designed the quick release bolts at the front axle was high.

The front wheels attach with bolts that will listen over time. If you go any distance at all please check them before you’re wheels fall off.

The basket: the attachment to the scooter for this sack is downright laughable. It falls off regularly requiring unloading and reinstallation. It’s worse when you try and put it down in the trunk while loaded and it comes out half hanging on.

Keep in mind I bought this to maintain normal mobility while healing from ORIF of my calcaneus. 12 weeks plus time before surgery. I’ve walked dogs, gone to work every day as a physician, gone to museums and taken walks with my family. It’s probably fine for around the house or in a rehab center. But if you want a normalized life on one foot you probably want something else.


A little health history: I have problems with low blood pressure and after having my son 18 yrs ago I noticed a problem with my heart. I was diagnosed with SVT (which they said it appears I had all my life and just didn't notice until pregnancy made me more aware of my body), and I was given atenolol. Well that didn't do anything. I was also advised to have a cryoablation of my heart since I was at risk of having a sudden "dry pump" heart attack. Scary, and hell no. (Today, that procedure has been altered from what they wanted to do to me 18 years ago.)
I did some research instead and came across Horse chestnut and hawthorn. I took a bottle of Hawthorn over the course of a month, then ran out and stopped taking it. (busy working Mom not taking care of myself first) The effects lasted for months, so I thought it cured the problem. No such luck. I went to find the same Hawthorn, only could find a complex (Hawthorn/Horse chestnut/ and buthchers broom). Tried that and it wasn't as good for me; I think because there wasn't enough Hawthorn in it for me.
Anyways... over the years I have taken several brands because I stop and start and the Health/Herbal store changed what it carried. This brand is very effective. For me that means it works within a few hours of taking it. If the palpatations stop within 6 six hours I am happy with the brand. I usually only take one a day, unless I feel like I am going to have a heart attack/pass out. Over the years the cost has really come down do to competition. My first bottle was $28 18 years ago. So I encourage anyone to take the gamble at this price. Oh ya, and EKG's don't lie: it is effective. If you wear a monitor, take it and dumbfound the stubborn doctors that are skeptical of herbal remedies.


Overview: This product stays in place when attached to a headrest, but is made out of a rough material with slots that aren't as large as I was expecting them to be. My one year old enjoys pulling out the products from the slots for now, but will enjoy having storage space in the future. Please read on about why I gave it a two star. You might like it better than I did.

Pros:
-Stays in place. I was easily able to attach this product to my headrest in no time. It took little effort to get the product in place and set up.
-Elastic holders work well. The elastic holders that are holding the shoes in the product photo work well at holding items in. It will hold both long items and heavy items.
-Size. The size of the product fits my two door car well. My daughter is easily able to access the items that she needs while I am paying attention to the road and keeping her safe.

Cons:
-Slots not too large. Some of the slots don't live up to their potential. I was hoping for slots that were able to fit shoes as shown in the photo, but it will only work for the young toddler and infant shoes. I was expecting more storage space.
-Material is thick but rough. Although the material is thick and sturdy, the material isn't soft. It is very coarse to the touch and you can see the cross-haired pattern of the plasticy thread.
-Nonelastic holders fall out. If I put something long or light into the nonelastic holders, I am left with items that fall out onto the floor. This is a mess that I have to clean up, and creates a nuisance.
-Wrap around is unattractive. The bottom wraps around to the front of the chair which is unattractive from the view of the front seat.

Overall: This product receives two stars or a D+. It received a two star instead of a three star because of the plasticy material

DISCLAIMER: I RECEIVED THIS PRODUCT AT A DISCOUNT FOR MY HONEST REVIEW.


I picked up the Walmart branded arm sling the day I got hurt.  It was massively too big with the arm pocket extending to my fingertips and the strap around my shoulder was so long, doubled over it was still too long.  This is not to mention the contortions required to attach the strap with a painful shoulder.  I think you would need to be 7 feet tall with a chest the size of a giant for this arm sling to be an appropriate size.

The second one was an Amazon SLR Products model.  Overall this one is a good arm sling with the only little nit being the arm strap being a tad long without enough adjustment to get my arm to a "level" position or slightly higher to take the stress of my shoulder joint.  The strap attachment at the wrist was easy to use unlike the option above from the big box store.

This Copper Compression arm sling is just right for this Medium size T-shirt/Polo wearing man of average build and height.  It has by far the best adjustment system and range of adjustment.  I cannot speak to the Pro's and Con's of the copper aspect other than to say it seems to be anti-microbial and has not picked up any weird smells or odors after nearly a week of use.  Whether copper is doing anything else is an unknown to me at this time so I will defer to people more knowledgable than I regarding the benefits of copper in injury recovery.  The strap adjustment system is easy to use and sized reasonably.  The strap is split at the neck and relieves any pressure and, it lets the skin breathe so it doesn't get sweaty there.  It is super easy to put on and take off using one hand and is as good as it gets with shoulder pain.

**--**--** Update after recovery December 31, 2019

The Copper Compression Arm Sling is the best arm sling I used.  The runner up, SLR Products model was nearly as good but, to be honest after using the Copper Compression Arm Sling I never put it back on.  The Copper Compression Arm Sling just worked better for my body size and profile.  For the price, quality, and performance I can honestly say this was the best one I tried and it helped me heal faster with less discomfort and pain.  Highly recommended!


I bought the cherry lime flavor off Groupon since I could get it super cheap, and at first I was really impressed. I love the taste, but you really have to like cherry limeades. It's got a nice, dominant lemony/lime flavor, with a subtle cherry aftertaste. The amino acid profile is good, but nothing too extraordinary compared to other BCAA supplements, and I've tried A LOT. Compared to the other big brand-name ones I've used (Optimum Nutrition's Amino Energy, Cellucor's Alpha Amino, Neon's Kinetic, X-Tend's, BSN's), I would say it's pretty decent overall. My favorite tends to lean toward's Neon's and X-Tend's aminos, but that's because they have more of a "refreshing" flavor that I like sipping on intra-workout (I'm a sucker for those coconut-water enhanced ones). On another note, like many others have mentioned, the solid form of these aminos smells atrocious (like you just ate a bad burrito and it gave you some intense gas). However, once you mix it into liquid form, it smells like lime. Solubility-wise, the powder mixes pretty well and doesn't leave any clumps or particles swimming around. Concerning the effect of this supplement, I have to first say that I'm a strong believer in supplementing BCAAs during your workout. I feel like doing this has always helped my recovery, helps me push harder in my workout, and I honestly feel like they're the only reason why I am able to have what others consider "a long workout" (roughly 2-3 hours a day depending on if I am workout out solo or what body parts I am training). I don't get tired at all, and I can literally workout for hours and hours if I could...In summation, if you can get over the bad scent and the plastic particles (unless that's just me), then you should absolutely consider purchasing this product. It is very reasonably priced considering it has 44 servings, and Allmax is a great brand with excellent products in general.


When I opened the box containing the Verilux Original Floor Lamp I knew I had my perfect light computer workstation light.  The height and availability of a flexible light head were just perfect.  The color of the fixture fit well.  The light itself has two levels of brightness and each is controlled by a toggle switch in a perfect location under the head.  A flexible next permits ease of setup and ease of changing just the head's position.  The base is heavy enough to keep the unbalanced head from tilting over during most operations and I have yet to find a position that would cause it to fall over.

Then constructing the lamp from 3 pieces plus 2 1/4 inch screws (critical to construction) turned into a semi-nightmare.  The internal cord was so stiff it took major tinkering.  It is just a bit too long and it needs to be near perfect to make for the ideal connection between the base and the extension rod going to the head.  After I finally connnected the base to the extension with one of the screws I found that the screw was just too small to hold the assembly above the base.  I held the extension in place, connected the head with the other screw and found a similar but not quite as bad connection.  Finally, I plugged the cord into the outlet and the light at either level is nice and handy.  I took a "gather my wits" break and returned a few moments later to move the light to its permanent place.  I forgot about the screw and just lifted the light by the extension and the bottom fell off.  Oops and it never worked as it was intended to work.

I refused to be outdone by a lamp and make my very own Rube Goldberg light at my work station in the garage by plugging the cord into an outlet and attaching the base's cord to the head without the extension.  I placed the head above the area that I use for close and tedious work such as fixing watches, clocks or computer parts and am happy with the results.  Even though the original setup is faulty the final product is at least useful.  Maybe I should have considered a higher score but it was too much work for such an outcome.


Feels super silky, bought the "one side" version and one side is silky-soft- cool to the touch and  the other is soft and all i can say is "warm" to the touch type of soft. Both are very nice depending on why you want them. IF I had bought this for my husband he would have to have the both side version bc he flips his pillow in the night to keep a "cool side up" all the time, but for me I dont care. I like the idea of the silky side not leaving my hair and face so dried out or smushy or whatever regular cotton pillow cases are supposed to do that are so bad for my skin/hair. I love how it feels and how my hair/face glide along the fabric without (surprisingly!) becoming static-y! My face did not feel as dry with this in the morning either so I think its a win!<br />*Disclosure: I was able to receive this product at a discounted price from the seller so that I am able to provide my unbiased opinion of this product as honestly as possible to you, the other customers at Amazon.

I discovered this product when looking into supplements for sinus infections.  It seemed that every time I got a cold it progressed  into a sinus infection, or bronchitis so I was trying to discover if I possibly had a vitamin deficiency.

As I was searching I found this comment about Oralmat on a website:
  " Oralmat - from Australia.  Natural herbal product with no listed side effects derived from Ryegrass.  Medical trials are underway in Australia.  Anecdotal patient reports claim the product is so effective that allergy & asthma sufferers can greatly reduce or even eliminate normal medication / inhalers. Adults asthmatics get significant relief after 3 to 4 weeks and children respond much faster.  Allergy symptoms may improve within minutes of use.

Oralmat is said to produce broad-spectrum results for numerous conditions including:

* Chronic fatigue - symptoms abate within 7 to 10 days
* Asthma
* MS patients - dramatic reduction in fatigue & fewer relapses
* Cold and Flu - symptoms said to disappear within HOURS of administration.
* Hayfever and Allergic Rhinitis - rapid improvement, even within MINUTES of use for some individuals
* Sinus Headaches - rapid drainage of congested sinus passages relieves headaches"

Well, I decided to give it a try.  What could it hurt--no known side effects?  I am so glad I did!  My husband was skeptical at first until he had symptoms of a beginning cold which vanished after using 3 drops of Oralmat on his tongue, 3 times a day for a couple of days.  I have had those same results.  I have not had a cold, or sinus infection since discovering Oralmat several months ago.  It is amazing how quickly the symptoms leave after taking the drops.

I highly recommend this product and have purchased several bottles some of which I have shared with skeptical friends or family because they didn't want to spend the $20-$35 (prices vary) to experiment.


I do not care for the packaging.

At first, I thought the cut outs were neat. I like how there is a spot to store the cup, and the access area to the spout is tidy looking.

Then it came time to pour product into the cup, and WHOA it comes pouring out. I really need to be on top of turning it off real quick lest I overflow my cup..again. So, in the future I will return to their regular bottles. If I had an empty I would pour this into that.

The Dreft laundry detergent itself? LOVE IT. Smells SO GOOD... to me. Mmmmm

I have been using Dreft products on and off since 2007. I do not have kids, but at some point I ended up with the stain remover spray, which is awesome stuff. Then I would buy the detergent once in awhile, especially for use with my cats and dogs bedding. I hadn't purchased any in a long time,  I think a lot of other gentle products came to market and I simply got away from it (not the stain remover though, still the best for me). Forward to this box of detergent. I really don't recall now what the detergent of the past smells like but I really like the way this smells. It is similar to a few others out there- floral, sweet. You may or may not like it. I like it. It works well with anything I have washed so far. If the scent has changed any, I understand why some would not like it-- sometimes we want what is familiar to use and what has worked.

Really not sure why anyone would think this was fake? It is sold by Dreft, not a 3rd party. Go to their page and it is ALL Dreft items. Anyway.. the detergent works as expected. Smells good too! Box.. eh, I could do without that. Use it as a refill if you really want the box style and not have more bottles building up.

I purchased this scooter for my 75yr old mom in Oct of 2017 and it quit working a few days ago. The motor will die randomly and won't move, all while beeping at her. It has a full charge and this is her 3rd Go-Go scooter over the last decade and she is well accustomed to operating it. It died on me as well while I was trying to see if there was anything obviously wrong..... It will eventually go again after removing the key multiple times, and then eventually die. I am dealing with the original vendor now which is Bargain Blast and if I don't get any help I will then go through amazon...... I will update this review with the outcome so you know if Bargain Blast and/or Amazon stood by their very expensive product.

UPDATE #1 3/22/18: My mom called Bargain Blast via the customer service phone number that is listed on their store front and she got right through to the owner named Eric. He said he would jump on getting her scooter repaired first thing tomorrow morning and apologized for her inconvenience. She said he couldn't have been any nicer or more helpful...... so far so good, and I will continue to update this review with the ultimate outcome.

UPDATE #2 4/5/18: Eric stayed in touch with my mom and had the repair people out to her house exactly 1 week after she first contacted him. After a lengthy visit, they finally figured out what the issue was but needed to special order the part and would have to come back to install it once it came in. As of this update, my mom is still without her scooter.

UPDATE #3 4/11/18 The part came in and they promptly came and repaired the scooter, and so far, so good. I have raised my rating to 4 stars because of Bargain Blast's prompt service. If there are no further updates by me, figure no news is good news and the scooter is running like it should........


By far the best “functional” gait belt I have used for my disabled elderly mother.  It’s broad width, easily accessible slots for your hands and the relative ease of wrapping and adjusting the belt around the trunk of an individual makes this product unique and much more functional than several other transfer belts I have used for my mother.  However, the design and construction of the belt is terrible, which causes it to easily rip at the outer edge of the slots were you place your hands and could lead to the sudden and catastrophic failure of this device and result in the falling of a disabled individual.

I actually have bought two of these belts on two different occasions.  The first belt lasted about three months before the first major rip, which made further use of the belt too risky because of my fear the belt would completely tear and result in my mother falling suddenly.  Note my mother weighs only 128 pounds.  However, because I really liked the “functionality” of the belt, I ordered a second one and hoped the failure of the first belt was due to a fluke production issue.  However, the second belt miserably failed again in the same way and within the second week of its use.  On closer inspection, I found the belt to be oddly constructed from multiple sections not initially appreciated and stitched together with only a single line of thread, which is not apparent until two pieces rip apart.  Furthermore, the fabric itself tears much more easily than expected.  Both of these design and construction issues can cause sudden and unexpected failure of this belt and lead to the sudden fall of a disabled individual, especially if they are much heavier than my mother.

I suggest the manufacturer of this belt to re-design it with much stronger fabric and reinforced stitching and to switch to a single unit construction, which would negate the need to stitch smaller units together.

I would judge this current product to be potentially dangerous because of its tendency to suddenly and unexpectantly fail without warning, thereby placing disabled patients at a risk for falling in spite of the assistance of a care giver.

[[VIDEOID:2004ff66ac46d3f28fd5eb11d4107586]] Ive been seeing these products for removing blackheads all over the internet and social media lately so I really wanted to see if these work, and if they hurt as bad as people are saying they do. Well this Blackhead Remover+Ance 3Pcs Set,Black head Export Liquid+Black Mask+Compact Toner is the second black mask I have tried, and again I am not that impressed. This one, has no directions on the product. I looked on the product page and those are TERRIBLE directions, laughable really. You would think that if they really wanted people to buy their products over here in the US they would be able to get someone to translate directions for use. I had to ask other customers what they did and how to use the products. As best I can tell you this is what you do:

 #1 and apply to your face. It is quite watery and I wish that it came with a roll on applicator. I ended using a rolled up peice of tissue to apply.

#2, apply black face mask to your face, avoid eyes and mouth etc. I tried to get an even coat but still ended up having some areas that were thicker than the rest. Be aware that if you use a lot it will tend to run a bit downwards on your face, I had to wipe mine a few times to keep from dripping. Let this dry completely before peeling up from bottom of your chin to the top.

#3, quite similar to #2 with its wateriness. I again used a tissue but I wish it came with a roller.

So the end result was not as good as I had hoped. It does NOT hurt as bad as some people say, however it did pull a bunch of fine hairs out of my face, which can definitely hurt. When looking at what I had left over I didn't see anything on it but skin and hair. THIS DID NOT REMOVE ANY BLACKHEADS. It DID leave my skin feeling smooth, but that is probably because of all the hair it pulled out. Overall this product felt nice, but failed for its intended use.

~Thanx~


So I bought this due to my getting a little older (fabulous 47)... I'm noticing some very sudden changes in my hair, in the fact that it just doesn't have the luster it used to... It seems to be dulling and even feels thinner (I have very baby fine hair to begin with)... I haven't noticed any hair loss and I want to keep it that way... I started taking Luscious 7 about a week ago and the very first dose I noticed a really warm sensation throughout my skin and scalp, I began feeling hot and flushed, skin turned red and I started itching a bit (symptoms began about 20 minutes of taking and lasted about 15 minutes)... Well being a nurse, I know that Niacin B3 may cause "niacin flush" if taken on an empty stomach (I was so excited to start taking them when it arrived at my door,  I just took them before I realized I hadn't had lunch yet)... It is a harmless side effect but it is best that you not take on an empty stomach (as I did and i got the "niacin flush")... I haven't had another episode since I started taking with food...Just a little heads, so you don't freak out that something is wrong if you get "niacin flush"... Three major changes I've noticed since I started taking this supplement:
**My hair is more supple/softer/SHINY (I haven't changed my routine with daily hair rituals) but most of all, my ends feel stronger...
**My energy level is through the roof... I am not as fatigued after work/exercise as I would get before using... I didn't expect that at all...
**I feel less sore and achy after a long day at work or a good yoga session... I also feel more limber in my joints... Could it be that I have more energy, who knows???  I am definitely going to continue taking this as part of my oral supplements... If any changes (positive/negative) occur, I will update with that info... I am satisfied with the quick results I'm experiencing thus far and hope they continue... FINGERS CROSSED!!!
Received at at discount for my honest and unbiased review...


This is a FANTASTIC set of blends for essential oil newbies. I have been dabbling in essential oils for aromatherapy, application, and cleaning purposes for a almost a year now and I've been pleasantly surprised with how much I like them. I'm a big fan of diffusing them to help with "ailments" and I think this set of blends is an amazing deal for a great set.

What I like:
1) This includes all of the most common oil blends that you can make if you have all of the individual oils. Stress Relief, Sleepytime, Headache remedy, breathe better, health shield (immune booster), and muscle relief. There are lots of mixtures you can do depending on the issue you are addressing, but these have been the most common (other than muscle relief) that we have used in our house.
2) The sizes of the bottles are great. Its more than enough to last you a while, as you only need a few drops in your diffuser.
3) They are already pre-mixed in the correct amounts. No guesswork, no worrying if you have enough of one oil or not enough of another, and you can always add a couple more drops of whatever you want to make this more customizable ( if you want to add slightly more eucalyptus or peppermint to the diffuser when you use "Breathe," for instance)
4) Dark amber glass bottles and heavy duty caps to keep the oils safe.
5) Comes in a really nice box, so this would be perfect to give as a gift.

What I don't like:
I honestly haven't come across anything yet. All of the ones I've tried have been helpful and they smell exactly like the blends I had been doing.

Overall, I'm glad I gave this set a try and I will definitely be buying my mother a set since shes just starting out with essential oils. I think this set is super convenient and well priced for what you get. I'm very happy with it!

**I did receive this item for free for the purpose of testing and reviewing it, but my cost has no bearing on how I rate a product.**


I've just had the interior of my entire house repainted from builder's blah to a different color in every room - 7 different colors.  The painters left me with cans for touch ups, but therein lies the problem. You know what it is - open up a gallon can, have to stir it up, find a brush, and drip, drip, drip. I knew I would need to do an occasional touch up and felt there had to be a better way.  After searching on Amazon, I found these tubes, and thought "wow, what a great idea!"  I didn't love the price but felt the convenience would make it worth it. I did end up going to the manufacturer's website and ordered from there directly. Do check for specials they offer-I was able to get a larger tube added to the set for the same price and shipping was very fast. Once the tubes arrived, I set about to fill them.  The process was very easy and straightforward. I have only had once chance to try them out, as the paint is so new.  There was a small chip on an outside corner in my bedroom.  It was so convenient to not have to open the paint can, pour some in a disposable container, get out a brush just to fix this one small but obvious spot, and then have to deal with all the leftover paint and dirty brush. I cannot address the durability of the foam pad on the top as of yet.  While the manufacture suggests that the paint pumps be disposed of, they say they can be washed to be reused. It isn't easy to clean them and get our all of the paint in them, but I figured I'd try. I would suggest that you try to match the pump with the paint color you first used them with, to prevent any color change in the refill. Think of these as paint marking pens.  I think they will come in very handy. I only wish I had thought of them myself!


I used this product as one of the main ingredients for a herbal homemade cream to combat psoriasis. For more than three weeks my sister had been suffering from a unusually persistent itchy psoriasis outbreak that had spread from her neck to her arms. All the herbal remedies that we normally made during her milder skin problems were not responding well enough, so as a last resort we followed a recipe that used a combination of Irish moss, a golden seal infusion, and an equal amount of vegetable glycerin.

Literally after only three applications in a eight hour period we saw the redness on her skin and the red hot itchy bumps on her arms virtually disappear leaving behind only minor traces. Apart from that their was an immediate sense of relief from the uncomfortable itching that ended after only the first application.  Even though we had used many different external and internal herbal formulas that normally worked, this time the itchy red bumps had managed to form a red uncomfortable sheet on the entire surface of her lower arms. This wonderful mixture completely took care of all these problems in a matter of days, leaving her skin smooth without a single scar. Even the usual dry psoriasis patches that worsened during these episodes responded beautifully to the mixture, and quickly softened until they too finally disappeared in one weeks time.

It was an unreal experiences given how much a person can suffer from skin conditions like psoriasis. I know that petroleum jelly is often used as a base for many homemade topical herbal remedies, but the results I personally witnessed using the Irish moss instead is far better if not seem more healing for the skin in the long run, since petroleum jelly can some times encourage excessive dryness if repeatedly used. However, the sticky jelly solution that is created after the moss is heated in water makes a wonderful binding agent that gently nourishes the skin and naturally promotes the body to heal itself. Their are other formulas to experiment with depending on the severity of the problem, either way using the Irish moss as a binder would enhance the healing process.


I got this foot massager mainly for my husband. He has plantar fasciritis and is supposed to roll the bottom of his feet on a tennis ball a couple times a day. This was the answer to our prayers.  He comes home from work and takes off the dress shoes that causes his foot pain and can't wait to get his feet in the massager.  The foot massager does deep tissue massaging,  almost to the point it's uncomfortable but that's what he needsand wants to help his feet so it's perfect. I on the other hand have restless leg syndrome and a lot of the time the calves of my legs ache really bad.  I had read on some of the reviews were people was putting the calves of their legs in the Foot massager and I thought why not! So I placed the massager on the couch, laid down and put my calves in it.  I. set it to auto which is 15 minutes of different types of massage.  I let it finish and for the rest of the night I had no pain in my legs! This is absolutely better than having to take ibuprofen all the time which didn't work as well as the massage.  The unit runs nice and quiet and is a beautiful red color. It is quite large but that's OK, I just store it beside the couch or underneath my coffee table for easy access as we will be using this every day. As other said the remote is almost useless, by the time you have tried pushing buttons a few times you could have bent over and pushed the button.  It did come very nicely packaged to keep it from getting damaged in shipment.  Another wonderful feature is that the covers to the footbed so unzip so they can be washed!  Well, enough reviewing, I'm gonna get a massage! Lol.<br />I would like to disclose that I did received this item for either a discounted price or for free to give an honest and unbiased opinion.  I was not paid or compensated to give a rating or to even review the product. I give ratings based on my experience and the performance that I expect with a product. My initial review is based upon my testing of the product however I will come back and edit some reviews if the product under performs over time.


My wife got me the battery powered unit for Christmas, it was good, but the battery model slows down with the slightest pressure applie...BUT the electric model is awesome, it just keep chewing through any callus you may have - something common on the hells of the flip flop/sandal wearing crowd.  This sucker will turn your cracking heels into the smoothest feet you can imagine - it's like magic.AND the resulting fine ground foot power goes for about $50 an ounce at the local Voodoo Shop.  I have no idea what they use it for, but it's a fair trade and pays for the unit in no time at all.  THAT and I've given up washing my feet altogether now.  I just grind away any dirt on my foot and when it's gone, I know the callus buildup is gone too.

The unit is lightweight. Has a removable A/C cord and power brick (about 2" x 1" x 1")...lightweight none the less and a fairly long cord, I'm guessing 5" so you have room to operate. The "Blue" sand paper buffer in the picture is released by a small sliding switch below the roller which allows you to put in new rolls.  There are three coarseness levels - Blue = Extra Coarse, Black + Super Coarse, and Green is Xtreme Coarse...I used the Xtreme to get rid of some badly cracked and thick heels - took about 20-30 mins I'd guess (didn't time it)...and as I noted, my heels are pretty smooth.  The finer grit (Extra) is goof for smaller callous and in no case do I think I wore out any of the roller buffers...they still have plenty of life even after doing both feet.  Soooo, highly recommended - from a guy who has been using a pumice stone every morning for the past twenty or so years - this thing make the whole process much quicker and easier...love it.


Being a young woman can be fun, but it can also be horrendous when faced with a UTI. Factors, such as menstruation, synthetic underwear and pantyhose, tight-fitting pants, sitting on cold surfaces, not hydrating the body enough, ingesting too much sugar and/or alcohol, and, most importantly, sexual activity can all cause painful and debilitating UTIs. Fortunately, there is a solution to the problem: D-Mannose. This isn't the first D-Mannose product I used, but it is by far the best.
The first D-Mannose herbal supplement I used was purchased for me by my boyfriend at a local drugstore. It's important to mention that it was in capsule form and only had 1000 mg of D-Mannose per serving. It also had 400 mg of cranberry juice powder infused into it. Anyway, I took this concoction for about a week, but immediately on the first day of taking it, I broke out in hives. I do not have any allergies on either of the two ingredients, but nonetheless that product must have had some contaminants in it, so I had to throw it out (what a waste of $17.99).
NOW is the second D-Mannose product I am using and it's going to be the one I stay with. I've been using it occasionally, whenever I feel that I have to, in order to prevent the development of an infection. And I must say that it is perfect. I am using powder form, which contains 2000 mg of PURE D-Mannose. I mix a teaspoon into a glass of water and drink up. It has a sweet taste, but I'm not worried about the sugar intake because it all flushes out of the urinary tract, sweeping away uninvited bacteria. As far as I heard, D-Mannose works only on E-coli bacteria, but then again up to 90% of all UTIs are caused by that bacterium.
I have no adverse reactions from NOW's D-Mannose, as I did with my first product. The price is a great value and I'm happy with what I purchased.


I cannot tell you how much I like this wig!  I had really liked the color in the photo since it would coordinate with my costume, but it is less of the light golden brown that the photo shows and more of a dirty blonde (the reason for knocking off one star rating).  I am not too disappointed, though.  I didn't want white and a good quality brown one is hard to find.  The quality is fantastic and it looked pretty good right out the package.  It will, of course, need some touching up but I was impressed that it wasn't a tangled flat mess.  The photos I have posted are of it right out of the package before even trying it on.  I will post additional photos once I touch it up.

It stands up very high behind the head.  What I did was shove some plastic grocery bags in the crown to round it back out as it was a tad flat.  I will leave it that way until I am ready to use it.  There are curls all around the side and hanging behind.  Even the hanging curls were in very nice shape when I received it.  The hair on the crown is flat and just combed back.

The inside has an elastic cross band that should make it more adjustable to different size heads (rather than a skull cap design).  I will update my review on that once I use it.

I am also leaving a short review of the seller here since they are the only ones listed as sellers.  At first I was shocked at the $20 shipping charge, but then remembered it was coming from Europe and their shipping costs are probably expensive like ours.  Anyway, since I needed it quickly, I wrote the seller to ask if the $20 at least included fast shipping.  They wrote back promptly and courteously and assured me that shipping is very fast.  I decided to take a chance and am very glad I did.  It arrived in only FIVE DAYS!  I can't guarantee that service for others, but if you are on the fence about purchasing because of delivery time, go ahead and write the seller to ask what their current shipping times are.


I have been using this solution for over 10 years, ever since I got an eye infection from my lens not being clean enough even though I followed my doctor's recommendation for cleaning.  After my infection, he gave me a sample of the Alcon brand and recommended I try cleaning them with a stronger solution.  After wearing contact lenses for over 20 years now, I've tried it all and nothing, NOTHING else cleans my soft lens as well.  In fact, when I've used other brands to try and save money (you know, the general multi-purpose stuff) I can actually feel the difference. The lens don't feel as comfortable for the same period of time and they feel "drier" in my eyes (best way I can think to describe it). And I need to replace them with a fresh pair sooner. To me, the few extra dollars for a bottle is well worth it as it has saved me money on contacts in the long run. I wear lens that are to be replaced every 30 days (so I have to purchase 12 pairs for the year) but using this solution, I can make them last twice as long.

I wear my monthly lens for an astigmatism, so because of that corrective issue, for me, a years supply of contacts runs around $250.  I try to make them last longer than that because of that fact.  When I went to the doctor's office in January of this year I had had my lens in for about 3-4 months (remember they are monthlys) and while the doctor saw they needed replaced she was amazed at how clean they looked for their age and that I had made them last that long when I wear them every day.  That right there is real proof at how well this solution works.

And for the love of the Maker, DO NOT PUT THE SOLUTION IN YOUR EYES!!  Use saline solution for a rinse if you really need it.  I don't understand how people still make that mistake when it's written all over the bottle, including around the cap now.


These are SANI SAC sanitary product adhesive Self Seal disposal bags that are NOT just for tampons but anything really, that you'd rather not have exposed in your or any other trash can.  ULTRA THICK, definitely limited see through, a nice wide peel strip adhesive closes them securely.  Odor doesn't escape.  I don't know why Amazon nor the manufacturer, Golden Group International, don't bother to really drill home those points.  I like not needing a twist tie, a knot or my own roll of tape.  They aren't large enough for adult diapers but you might be able to squeeze in one for a newborn.

Closed Dimensions: 9 inches by 4 3/8" with adhesive flap

For cheaper rates go right to the Golden Group International site and buy two boxes incl shipping for $13 and change [or short cut sanisac dot com].  They arrive USPS in just two days.  If money is no object then Amazon does sell them in convenient sealed packs all cute for your purse 15 total [[ASIN:B0042U0KH2 Tampon Disposal Bags Handipacks, S.A.C. - 5 packs]] or 50 total [[ASIN:B005NJQDJU Tampon Disposal Bags - 5 bag handipack - 10 packs]].  Of course you pay for that added packaging cuteness.  I'm fine just taking a few out of the economical box and putting them in a zip loc bag.

In the past I had used Fresh Sacks.  Didn't like the perfume and don't like the fact that they have no self seal and they are thin and see through. Fresh Sacks are much larger in size but I really don't like keeping an open one around to add more soiled product to yet you feel like a wasteful nut if you use them just for one small item because they are rather spacious.

The S.A.C. product line [Socially Acceptable Containment Brewster NY products made in China] does have diaper disposal items too.  One is ten inches in size the other 16" in size {adult incontinence}.


I like that the electrolytes are keto, no sugar and flavorful.  There is a touch of Himalyan Pink Salt and sometimes, I feel like it has a bit of a salty bite to it, but it isn't bad.

The ingredients are fairly simple in that there isn't a ton of extra fillers, sweetners that most people don't want (fake and artificial), and they use Stevia Leaf extract.  So, if you have issues with the after flavor from stevia or don't enjoy that, beware it is in there.

I find that the mix is really tasty and doesn't leave a bad taste in my mouth.  It mixed up easily into my mug of water and made it much easier to drink the amount of water that I am trying to drink.  The flavor that I picked is wild berry.  I love mixed berry flavors a lot and this doesn't disappoint.

I find that it helps keep me from having cramping in my legs overnight, as it contains a decent amount of your daily supply of magnesium (24% of the daily recommended intake).  Some enjoy having Zinc for reducing colds, etc, this has a decent amount of zinc include.

My only thoughts or comments for improvements would be a couple of items:

The plastic spoon in the package is great, in that you can find it easily up opening the container.

Downside, once you take it out to measure your mix into your water, is was very hard to put back into the container.  It could also use a little "pour notch" to make it easier to fit into the mouth of a bottle a bit easier, as that can be a bit messy trying to pour this into the bottle top.

Overall the wild berry flavor is decent.  Stevia leaf extract makes me excited as it is not a fake sweetener and it is a zero sugar, great for keto electrolyte option.  The Pink Himalayan salt is a very nice touch to help as well.  If you are looking for a decent flavor enhancement to make drinking water easier, this is a decent electrolyte and I am looking forward trying other flavors and adding it to my drink enhancements.


These are very disappointing. I have hair down to my elbows and trim my own hair at home regularly to save time and money. I cut my hair with these and on close inspection noticed that my ends did NOT have a clean cut. The ends looked less than fresh, with a whitish speck on the end of each hair (like a split end waiting to split). The tension knob didn't help either. I'd say I had about 25% split ends I wanted to eliminate, but instead I created a full head of hair of 100% primed and ready to split hairs. Talk about unfortunate!! My goal of a healthy trim totally backfired. The $6 Goody brand hair cutting scissors I bought at Walmart are WORLDS better than these. I bought these Equinox shears to step it up a level from the Goody scissors, haaaaaa. Total fail. Goody for the win!! I have since gone back to the Goody scissors and I'm so pleased because they offer a quality sharp cut. The only advantage these "fancier" Equinox kind have are the pouch, the thinning shears (which I also don't trust considering the effect the regular shears had), and they look sleeker than the Goody brand (earning them 2 stars instead of 1). Overall, my advice is that if you want nice scissors and you're a hairstylist (and your clients will give you a weird look if you use Goody shears on them), get more expensive ones than these. I imagine it must be hit or miss with mid-level shears and these are definitely a miss in my book (considering these were terrible for me but the $6 Goody ones are cheap and amazing in comparison). If you're a regular person like me, do yourself (your wallet and your hair) a favor and get some Goody shears or any other cheap hair scissors (probably worth a try) at your local store.


I’ve tried a lot of pre-workouts over the years and it’s an area I’m fairly critical in as a result. This pre-workout did not disappoint. Here are my thoughts:

- Flavor: 5/5
With most pre-workouts, I either hate the flavor right away, or I start to get tired of it after a couple of servings. That has not happened with this flavor so far, and it’s honestly one of the most delicious pre-workouts I’ve ever tasted. Literally tastes like a mojito (Raspberry Lime Mojito flavor)

- Energy Effects: 4/5
I’m quite sensitive to caffeine, so I almost never take a full serving of pre-workout. In fact, I usually half it. Even with a half dose, I definitely feel the energy and it makes me want to shred weights. It’s not so much that I get jittery though. However, and I’ve noticed this on different occasions, I do seem to crash a few hours later. It’s not a hard crash, I just get a little bit tired.

I also don’t feel any of the tingling or itching from the beta-alanine, but that’s probably because I halve the serving.

So overall happy with the effect, just not super thrilled about the crash at the end.

- Ingredients: 4/5
This pre-workout is one of the best mixers I’ve tried. Usually there’s a bunch of residue at the bottom of my shaker from the creatine or other ingredients, but this one mixes very well…that might be a bit of a con though because it’s missing ingredients you tend to see in other pre-workouts.

As an example, it doesn’t have any creatine in it, and for the price, it really is lacking ingredients you can find in competing products at the same or lower price point.

- Value: 4/5
I almost gave this a 3 because the cost to ingredients to servings ratio is not great. You can get other pre workouts at the same or cheaper price for more servings and more ingredients per serving. However, I tend to purchase those other ingredients individually (like creatine) so it doesn’t matter too much to me. Also, the taste is so delicious that it makes up for it, at least for me personally. Up to you whether that’s enough to pay the extra $$ though.

Hope this review helps, and happy lifting


This item is listed at $540 with a 90% discount taking it to $54. Honestly, a 99% discount would have not been enough. The main body is made from low quality plastic. I suspect this was chosen as compensation for the rather cheap internal components. Typically, you will find that in order to reduce size and weight of electronics, you must use more expensive metals and base board components. These devices went with larger, heavier internals and had to utilize the thin external case. This also had an effect on the fit and finish of the product. It almost seems that these devices were made by hand. Not experienced hands but shaky, clumsy hands that you might expect belong to uncoordinated and underfed pre-teenagers.

The volume control knob on one device would rotate freely without any resistance which resulted in gravity alone being able to adjust the volume. If you turn or nod your head, the volume might shift. The other device was the exact opposite. It required some considerable effort to adjust. The power switch on both devices felt loose in the frame and as a result either device might turn off because the switch slid down from the on position without being directly manipulated. This also meant that when sliding the device into the charging slot, the power button might be shifted up into the on position. This, we discovered resulted in a longer charging period as the device is discharging the battery at a rate that almost exceeds the charging capacity.

Finally, does the device at least amplify sound as stated in the description. Yes, the device amplifies sound. All sound. Background noise is amplified at an equal level to speech, music, and any other sound. Add to this the fact that because of the poor engineering, low quality components and shoddy manufacturing the device introduces a rather noticeable and annoying hiss that overrides any potentially beneficial effect of the amplification.

I do not recommend that anyone purchase this device from any source or vendor. Take the $54 and buy a megaphone to give to your family. Or perhaps you might be better off using the $54 to buy lotto tickets as an investment in good quality hearing aids. Another option might be to roll the money up in a tube and have others shout through the tube while pointing the open end directly at one of your ears.


I have hypophosphatemia - with no known cause - though hypophostemia means you are almost dead.  It only occurs in states of severe sickness like burn victims,  sepsis , diabetic acidosis. and other fatal illnesses.  nowhere in the literature is supplementation of phosphorous a treatment for hypophosphatemia - the treatment is fix underlying illness.  however the drs do not find mine  I am just pychsomatic according to them - even though i have peripheral neuropathy of unknown etiology , endocrine tumors whicht they wont operate.  and multi-tude of other health complaints.  anyway.. you should never have low phosphate.  it occurs in 2% of hospital inpatients but 85% of ICU patients.. you see what i mean? and they think i am not sick?  never the less this supplement increased my level from near fatal of 1.1 -1.5  to 2.1-2.3  still lower than normal but close to the bottom range - I guess it will keep me alive another day.. Also, for others who have this condition.. They say they can now related low phosphorous to mortality and it can be used as an independent predictor of mortality in all cases and all illness.  Duh.. - 85% of ICU .. you are sick , deathly sick if you are low in phosphorous - look at the diseases that are known to cause it.  so anyway.. anything below 1.1 is grounds for admission and treatement with slow IV infusion - as it is fatal without treatment. .. good luck folks.. Id love to hear others feed back and why they take this.. because this is not your everyday supplement and its not easy to find anywhere - I think this is the only company producing and selling it.  I have taken kphos( prescibed) too .  but this is all the same.  thank god for this product as i would be dead without it.. but what is up with the doctors. pychosomatic .. yeah, ok..need to treat the condition.. not the symptom with this..


First off, this package was put together solely for COSTCO, so its availability on Amazon is from enterprising resellers.
There seems to be some confusion among reviewers as to its functionality. Reviewers have commented on the fact that the pressure in the cuff is raised, rather than lowered after pumping the cuff up to a pressure that’s above any possible systolic pressure, as other sphygmomanometers employ. The technique of lowering the cuff pressure while listening with a stethoscope or microphone for the Korotkoff  sounds (those tapping and squishing sounds in the brachial artery) suffers from serious imprecision. Nurses have a lot of practice listening to those sounds as they lower the cuff pressure, but unfortunately they often practice an irreproducible technique, even after years of experience, and they often rush the measurement, knowing that they will only be able to get a ball park reading anyhow. To avoid those inaccuracies, a newer measurement technique has been developed in which oscillations in cuff pressure are measured and analyzed algorithmically. The amplitude of these oscillations is only a few mmHg, so they’re insensible. The problem is that the algorithms are proprietary and secret (although there is at least one that is open source). Using this measurement method, the cuff pressure trend can either be falling or rising, it only has to span the mean arterial pressure between systolic and diastolic, but a combination of Korotkoff sounds and pressure oscillations can also be incorporated in the algorithm. Microlife seems to think that they can produce less annoying pressure of the cuff by their method of raising the pressure in small increments and using oscillometric measurement; in my experience it’s not a big comfort difference, but the results are accurate.
So how do I like the unit? It’s great. It’s easy to use; it’s portable or can run off the included wall wart; and it can keep the last 99 measurements with time and date for two people. It can report either a single routine or take three measurements and average them (the preferred option and the one most researchers use). It can report but not analyze irregular heart beats. And it exactly matches the unit in my cardiologist’s office; he thinks it may actually be better.


This Sport Go Electrolyte in Lemon Lime is very tasty.  The directions recommend 2 scoops with the included scoop, added to 16 oz (500 ml) of water, for one serving size.  I mixed a 1/2 serving size (1 scoop to 8 oz water) in the white ceramic mug shown in my pic, and stirred it with a spoon. It dissolved fairly quickly and evenly, making a slightly lemonade-type milky looking drink, which tasted very sweet to me. I put it in my water bottle and filled the rest of the bottle with plain water, to get 1/2 the recommended concentration, which was a better flavor for me, because I don't love sweet drinks- but, you can easily add the amount you want, which is convenient.

I compared this Sport Go to the leading-brand sports drink starting w "G" that  I often have on hand.  The G contained artificial colors and natural and artificial flavors, whereas the Sport Go had only natural flavors,but also contained aspartame (the blue pack sweetener on tables at restaurants).  G contained 27.5 grams Total Carbs (22 grams in my 12 oz G bottle increased 1/4 to account for the 16 oz comparison) vs. Sport Go's 36 g. G contained 100 cal (80 cal x 1.25) vs. Sport Go's 150 cal.  G had about 26g sugar (21g x 1.25) vs. Sport Go's 7g. Sport Go contains several other electrolyes and minerals missing from the G, however, including Magnesium and Calcium.

Overall, depending on what you are looking for, this Sport Go is a multi-mineral electrolyte drink that tastes great (diluted for me), and will provide a good supplement for your heavy sport activities, without unnecessary artificial colors or flavors.  On the other hand, I am not a big fan of Aspartame.


I rated this item a 2 because while I'm sure it's a decent product (4 stars), the manufacturer is most likely fully aware of the problem and still labels them as "flushable" (0 stars, making for an average of 2 stars).
So go ahead and use them, just put them in the trash instead of down the loo. Your Utilities will charge your household with increased rates when the system clogs up, and our planet will be none the better for any overflows into our rivers and oceans. Thank you.

Utilities say "Flushable" personal wipes clog sewer systems

for the full story:
[...]

Next time you go to toss that "flushable" wipe in the toilet, you might want to consider a request from your sewer utility: Don't.

Sewer agencies across the country say the rapidly growing use of pre-moistened "personal" wipes -- used most often by potty-training toddlers and people seeking what's advertised as a more "thorough" cleaning than toilet paper -- are clogging pipes and jamming pumps.

Utilities struggling with aging infrastructure have wrestled for years with the problem of "ragging" -- when baby wipes, dental floss, paper towels and other items not designed for flushing entangle sewer pumps.
The latest menace, officials say, is that wipes and other products, including pop-off scrubbers on toilet-cleaning wands, are increasingly being marketed as "flushable." Even ever-thickening, super-soft toilet paper is worrisome because it takes longer to disintegrate, some say.

"Just because you can flush it doesn't mean you should," said I.J. Hudson, a spokesman for the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, which handles sewage for 1.8 million Maryland residents in Montgomery and Prince George's counties.

The result: Utility officials say crews needed for less preventable sewer maintenance and repairs are being deployed instead to patrol for wipes.

I'm not totally sure at what age I became so critical of loofah quality, but I'm here now and there's no turning back. Truly a blessing and a curse, because finding good loofahs on Amazon is like searching for a needle in a haystack. Thousands of different options, many of which claim to be high-quality but ultimately can't deliver. Recently I took a chance on this loofah 4-pack with hardly any reviews, and I'm so glad I did! Now I had never heard of Tobyan before until I came across this product, but it doesn't even matter. They make one hell of a loofah! The texture is soft, the mesh is dense, and they are all tightly packed with sturdy knots. Best part is, the quality is carried through the entire 4-pack, not just 1 or 2 good ones. The last time I found a good loofah multi-pack on Amazon (Novosun brand), the product quality was totally different when it came time to re-purchase them. Due to my paranoia, I promptly ordered a second Tobyan 4-pack and they're just as awesome as the first pack. I am still currently on my first loofah and there are zero signs of it coming apart after a week+ of usage. Now one thing that many reviewers here on Amazon don't seem to grasp is that it is recommended that you replace your loofah once every month-or-so. Even though we are covering these in soap they still retain bacteria. Any more than a month-and-a-half of usage and you're just going to end up covering yourself in your own grime. If you can make your loofah last a year, good for you! You just admitted to everyone reading your review that you have questionable standards in cleanliness.

Bottom line: Buy this 4-pack. They are soft, dense, sturdy, and look awesome! The price-to-quality value here is excellent and you will not be disappointed :)


These "Innocheer 24" Wind Chimes with S Hook, Aluminum and Wood for Outdoor Patio, Garden and Home Décor" are a wonderfully crafted masterpiece. The sound is so soothing. It's hanging in my back yard with my all my colorful hanging plants. At first, when I moved around with it in my hand it almost sounded to load and I was starting to doubt if it was something I would become irritated about later on. But once I got I up and hanging, the light wind blows made it sound so fine, really love this! I love walking in and out of the door just hear the music, it's like therapy to me This is by far one of the best quality wind chimes that I have ever seen!

This is my review for the "Innocheer 24" Wind Chimes with S Hook, Aluminum and Wood for Outdoor Patio, Garden and Home Décor"
I try to review items I need or have a strong interest in so in order I can provide a review based on a real genuine trial so my opinions and experiences with the product are an actual true reflection of my personal experiences with the item.
Because many of the products that I review, I have not been discounted or given this product for free. I chose to review so others can see what a great product this is. I do though still try to supply as much information as I can in terms of my initial experiences with the product, and the contents of the product as well.

Read All Reviews to Judge for Yourself... after reading all 25 reviews as of 12/15/13 I've decided not to buy this amount in bulk, and I would recommend everyone buy a small amount of this stuff to try out 1st. This product may work IF you have blood sugar or pain issues, BUT one reason it may work is that it is retarding your food intake and calories of other foods. You can definitely control blood sugars naturally with much tastier foods and exercise... seriously, check-out mendosa.com ...he is a science writer that focuses on his Diabetes type 2 using nutrition, diet, exercise to control it, for example, on his website find the list of foods to take using the Glycemic Index, etc. Humans do not naturally want to eat this Nopal Cactus in this form, so why take it? There are far better alternatives except for the maybe LESS THAN ONE PERCENT of you that may derive a unique health benefit from using this Nopal Powder vs other more palatable ways of curing your health problem. It is a very expensive "fiber" or "food supplement" unless you really need it. You need to check your blood sugar levels with a meter to truly know if this helps or not vs other options of control. As for pain, well that is a sensation only you can know. Good luck... :)

Oh, btw, from Mendosa's website: "After all, the glycemic index includes several others foods that have only a minimal impact on blood glucose. Nopal (prickly pear cactus) has a glycemic index of 7 (where glucose = 100). The mean of two studies of chana dal is 8." <--- PLEASE note Chana Dal is almost equal to Nopal (8 vs 7)... Chana Dal is inexpensive and is an absolutely delicious food (or ingredient component) that has so many uses for a wide variety of delicious recipes. My point is, there are probably much better tasting and lower cost healthy food/nutrition choices that are much better tasting and edible than using Nopal powder. Also, you should be drinking a lot of liquids if taking Nopal powder to prevent slow digestion and/or constipation w/dryness of stools.


This pair of Orthotic insoles (Medium size; U.S. 8-9) gives my feet better support as I go through my daily activities than the insoles that came with the shoes I wear. I feel less pain in my knees and lower back, especially near the end of the day, after I've been on my feet all day.

These insoles are semi-rigid, thanks to the black-color hard material (on the bottom of the insole) that spans the region from the heel to the middle of the foot. The arch part bends, yet is firm. Leaving the insole on the table, I can press the arch area flat to the surface, but when I release pressure, the arch rises back to its original shape.
This is one of the best features of this insole.

At the bottom of the insole, at the heel area, is an oval-shaped heel pad (measuring 1-3/4 inches long x 1 inch wide at its widest width). I would have preferred for this heel pad to be larger to provide better shock absorption for the entire heel. This oval shape does not provide padding for my entire heel.

I do like the heel cup area, as the edges are nicely raised, and my heels fit well within the depths of this heel area.

I would have liked for the front of the insole (which I measure to be 3/16 inches thick) to have a slightly thicker padding.

I measure the length of the insole (from back of heel to tip of toe) to be 10-1/4" inches.
I wear a size 8 men's shoes.
I removed the old shoes' insoles, put them on top of these longer EverHealth Orthotic insoles, and cut off the very tips of the new insoles to the same size as the old insoles. It fit well inside my shoes.

Overall, these insoles work much better at providing comfort for my feet/knees/back than the regular insoles that came with the shoes I bought.


This is an amazing cleaner for Qtip tech, or for cleaning glass, or nails (soaking) in general. I recommend heating up the solution to clean your glass, keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't boil over; or rather, heat up the solution in the microwave just until it starts to bubble. You also don’t need salt, or need to shake it up. Just let it sit for 30 seconds to 3 min, and your glass will be spotless. You can repeat as many times as needed. I use this in combination with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (ISO) for a clean that’s so clean, it’s safe to fly with. I usually use ISO first, then finish with the DC glass cleaner, and save it to re-use it again. For travel I do the same first two steps, but I hit it with the ISO again after the DC glass cleaner, save the rest of the ISO for another time, and then let whatever is left evaporate. This ends up giving you zero water spots.

For nails, just make sure the nail isn’t super hot, if the nail is still too hot, it can and *will stain your quartz. You want the nail to be hot, but not so hot that the cleaner will evaporate (that’s when it leaves stains.) Qtip tech regularly, then hit it with the clean end with a small amount of DC glass cleaner on the Qtip, if you need you can always hit with the dry side of a fresh Qtip. Then when finished, and you’re ready to go. You can do this however many times you feel you need to. Sometimes once is good, other times I’ll do it 3 times in a row if I got nail a little too hot.

I always have to have some on me, look on YouTube for a more detailed analysis on how to use. This will change your life. A must have for an owner of headies, or high end glass. I included photos of my ships right after cleaning them, and they look like they’ve never been used.


Everything I dislike....the item in its box had been crammed into a shipping box that was too small.  Sit it got damaged in packaging.  I had a REAL Grabit which is what it is advertised as.  However, even though the box said Grab it was a cheaply produced knock off.  I feel like the full truth was not provided for the customer.  The item in the box had a “Fanwer” sticker slapped on it which indicates to me again cheap knockoff.  Produced at a cheap price point.  Out of the box it would not pick up partically anything due to the fact the what should have been a rubber inter rim on the two jaws said it could pick up a coin which my real Grabit Purchased from the real Grabit manufacturer.  Anything that weighed over a couple of ounces this could not handle not just because of the weight but because the metal arm could not handle it.  It bowed greatly.  It clip in the center of the arm would not hold either.  Once you squeezed the handle that gave away into a collapsed arm.  Now I went to use the doctored up item to move an object today the cheap plastic of the handle broke where the handle connects to the cheap rod running from the handle to the rod.  Thing is the screws stayed in.  This has been a very frustrating purchase that picked up nothing not even a pair of underwear off the floor.  Advise for “Fanwer” do your research regarding quality.  We as a consume deserve better then this.  To the customer find aREAL Grabit Not a cheap knockoff that was put in a pirated Grabit Box.  It is not a Grabit just because a box says so.  It is what is on the inside that counts.  If I buy a pair of shoes take them out of a box and put 2 eggs in the box I can not call the eggs shoes and reseal them to telling the customer they are shoes.  An egg is an egg no matter what box it is put in.  And cheap products placed in a box resembling the original do not make them any mor then a cheap falsely advertised product.  Do not tell people it is a Grabit when it is not.


My previous lightweight toiletry bag made by Rick Steves was a disaster (ripped at the seams), and so for the last few years I've been looking for a good replacement with nylon/polyester material.  Well, I purchased this sea to summit toiletry kit in large and debated doing so.  I try to minimize anything that I use for traveling and every ounce counts.  I'm glad I purchased the large size now as it squishes down and reduces its size if not completely full, so it really doesn't take up much space if you don't fill it up, but its great that its large so if/when you need to bring along more items, like on a car trip you have the room!  I'm not sure why people downgrade the included "mirror"?  I find it just find.  Maybe they didn't peel off the protective coating?  Not sure, but it works just fine for me for traveling.  Who needs a full size mirror in their carryon?  The small plastic hook isn't an issue for me either, like one of the other reviewers indicated, just use a piece of string or old shoe lace to attach it to large poles.  I tried using this in my bathroom and found many attachment points including the knobs on cabinets.  So, thats a mute point for me.  And the hook on the Rick Steves bag was TOO big and made of metal and was definitely pointed out by many reviewers but it wasn't an issue with me, the quality of the bag was my issue.  So, if you're looking for a lightweight "durable" toiletry bag, I would highly consider this sea to summit version.  And if you're looking to pay less, check back often for used/like new bags in amazon warehouse deals.  Mine came with manufacturing packaging and labels and never used.

I would like to add that the large exterior zipper compartment is great for when you need to put a few items that you might need to retrieve while in travel mode without opening the entire bag, like a small bottle of lotion, floss sticks, toothbrush/paste or some wet wipes etc.  I really like that feature.


I completed the full bottle of pills and my conclusion is that this product did nothing. I consider myself a biohacker and I am in tune with how my body responds. Perhaps the effect is masked by all the other supplements and peptides I take. I tried to isolate the effect from my other supplements and energy drinks. I tried taking more than the recommended dose, taking it spread throughout the day, taking it in the evening, in addition to recommended three pills at once.

If this supplement does anything, it is too subtle for me to notice. Some supplements and medications take time to build up before their effect becomes noticeable, but I did not notice anything from this at any time during the month. I was hoping this would work since the company seems well-intentioned with a belief that what they are selling works.

This is clearly not a stimulant. Anything that is a stimulant is more immediately effective than this product.

The clinical trials are meaningless if they used a placebo as a comparison. They should be comparing competing products, such as caffeine, Adderall, Ritalin, and Modafinil. All of these competing drugs are less expensive than this supplement, excluding the cost of the doctor's visit to get the prescription. The real challenge for supplements like these is how it stacks up against caffeine, or a Monster Energy Drink, not a sugar pill.

People that are avoiding stimulants are not going to eat cocoons either. Products like this target the fringe of biohackers, who already take numerous other supplements and are not nutrient deficient in anything. The target audience is different from a clinical trial group.

The main compound adding to the cost is the peptide. For brain-enhancing peptides, Semax and Cerebrolysin are established, proven, and scientifically validated peptides, and both work great in me and have noticeable effects. I am not sure what cocoon peptide is supposed to do and the Web site of the vendor does not mention how it works. What is the mechanism of action? The other peptides I mentioned increase BDNF levels and are less expensive than this product.

I am a man in my 40s and I have tried a large number of supplements, nootropics, medications, and peptides to help increase productivity, focus, and mental performance.

The money-back-guarantee helps for a product like this, but it seems like you will need to take a test at the start of the 30 days to activate the offer.


Note: I received these at a discount in exchange for being encouraged to write a review. And I just now received and put these on. Normally I wait a bit before I review a product, but my initial impressions are strong enough that I wanted to rave/post about this product already, about how much I like it so far.

I am a nurse (currently working part-time while in grad school). And for one thing, I love the look of this product. The socks look sleek and rather classy overall. And stylistically, they actually LOOK like they could be for athletics but don't have to be used only for sports participation.

Second, putting them on, they are helping my feet to feel better currently already. I don't have a work day today but did work most of the weekend, and my feet were hurting quite a bit last night soon after I finished working, when I was just starting to relax (or try to relax). They felt better by the morning, but I think that it still happens to be good timing that these socks arrived today.

On another note, regarding price: So many socks these days seem expensive, whether they are compression socks or not. For most of them out there, I don't think that the full, regular retail prices tend to be worth the prices (not for the potential of getting a second pair for oneself or another, at least). To some degree, to be honest, that may be slightly the case with some other Kunto products out there. (Maybe. I'm not sure, mind you, because personally I haven't had as much need of some of the other types of Kunto products out there.) But for me and probably many others, these compression socks do feel worth paying a bit extra compared to non-compression socks at least, for sure. Truly.

So while it is early to say, I am loving these socks so far. I guess that one thing for people to bear in mind is that the socks are pretty warm. So I could imagine some individuals not realizing that when ordering them and then complaining about it. But if compression socks being warm is okay or even good for you/others (I personally like warm socks sometimes on days that I'm not working and/or during cold seasons)...Then these could be socks that would be of benefit for you/your others.

Oh, the socks definitely do extend up to the knees, by the way. Fyi for any person/s unsure of the length based on the photo or something.


I have been using lutein and bilberry for years on the advice of my eye doctor. I wear bifocals and have very dry eyes. When i was offered the opportunity to try  Eye Vitamin Ultra at a generous discount, I was quite pleased to be able to. Not only does it have lutein and bilberry, it also contains vitamin A, (needed for night vision at 500 % of the recommended daily allowance,) zinc, grape seed, L-taurine (an amino acid that helps with retina health), quercetin (used for cataract and blood vessel health in relation to the eye), and NAC. I have used NAC in the past for detoxification but was unaware it would be helpful for vision.
N-Acetylcysteine  is a metabolite of cysteine, a non-essential amino acid that is both found in foods and synthesized by the body from the amino acid methionine. In the body, NAC is rapidly broken down into  glutathione, a powerful antioxidant that detoxifies harmful chemicals into less damaging compounds. NAC supplements are taken to help protect the body against a wide array of environmental pollutants  Some people experience nausea using NAC.

Eye Vitamin capsules also contain gelatin, silicone dioxide and magnesium stearate. Directions are to take two capsules daily preferably with meals or as directed by your health care professional. The bottle cautions if you have a medical condition consult a physician before you use this or any supplement. It is processed in a facility that also processes the common food allergens: soy, wheat, dairy, nuts, egg, fish, shellfish. Capsules are rather large, twenty three millimeters long and seven millimeters wide but they slide down easily.

I have been using this product for eighteen days now. It has more ingredients to support eye health than other products I have used in the past. I spend a lot of time in front of a computer and I have definitely noticed my eyes are not as dry which I attribute to Eye Vitamin. I have had no side effects. The last three days, I have noticed my vision is different, it seems things look sharper on the computer screen. Disclaimer: I purchased this product at a discount in exchane for an honest unbiased review.
