Knife Set Review

This is a 6 piece set including a stand. These knives are made from stainless steel making them very durable.  Being made from stainless steel makes them easy when it comes to cleaning and care. The knives that are included:


 1 8” Chef Knife
 1 8” Slicing Knife
 1 8” Bread Knife
 1 5” Utility Knife
 1 3.5” Paring Knife


I know the newest fashion is the ceramic knives that are hitting the market. For the most part I have not had much luck with the ceramic knives other then they are really sharp. The tips break easy and the blades chip some times even when you drop the knife to the cutting board from a couple of inches. With this set of knives you do not have to worry about them being so fragile. These knives also weigh about the same as those ceramic knives so you are not giving up on that luxury as well. These blades are extremely sharp and able to handle just about any kind of prep work needed around the kitchen.


The knives come with a block to store them in. I personally do not use this block. I have a magnet strip that I put them to my wall with. It is much better for the blades to attach on the side instead of dragging the blade the distance going into the holder.


Now these knives being stainless steel make them a breeze when it comes to clean up. They are a solid metal from end to end so you do not have to worry about them holding germs in the handle. I use warm soapy water to clean my set of knives. I guess you could use them in a dishwasher because they are stainless steel but they do clean very easily.


If you are looking for a really good set of knives for your kitchen prep work these blades will more then likely get the job done. They are solid stainless steel, easy to clean, extremely sharp, and come with a nice knife block. I would like to thank Amazon Product Promoter and affiliates for sending me this set of knives to try out and share my opinion.

Universal Bluetooth Headphones Review

This is much like other Bluetooth ear buds on the market with a few exceptions. They are compact, light weight, easy to pair, and charge. This set of ear buds comes only as black high lighted in neon green. Upon ordering this set of ear buds they come with a USB to micro USB charging cable, instructions manual, and 2 spare sets of tips that vary in size.


The battery and control areas are a little larger then most out there. I am guessing this is because it has a little bit larger battery then most. The controls are simple to use with a push of some buttons you can skip/rewind track, answer a phone call, and control the volume.


To start off we will cover the sound quality. It does cover all 3 ranges of a typical speaker. The bass is however very lacking like 99% of the ear buds on the market. You can tell it is there but it is not a powerful driving type of bass. The sound that is produced is crisp and clear. I as able to turn it to max and be able to make out all of what the song had going on. I do not recommend running it at that level long because it will eventually take a toll on a speaker, regardless of the speaker.


Next when it comes to charging these ear buds it was a cake walk. I was able to charge them from any powered USB port. This includes my laptop, desktop, back up battery charger, lighter plug adapter, and my 110w adapter. On average it takes about an hour to charge. Once it is charged I was able to get about 6 1/2 hours of music play before having to recharge. This fell short of the 10 hours claimed on the package. That long of a battery life works out well for me though. It will last through many hours of exercise.


Now for pairing the ear buds. This is a simple process with this set of ear buds. You press the button to put the ear buds in pairing mode. The lights will flash when you are in this mode. Next you do a search on your device for the ear buds. My tablet and phone both found the ear buds in a couple of seconds. From there press the pair mode on your device and they are connected.


If you are looking for a set of ear buds these may be exactly what you are needing. They pair to almost any device, pair easily, offer decent sound, and a good battery life. I would like to thank Roybens and affiliates for sending me this set of ear buds to try out and share my opinion.

Speaking Tree Man Decoration Review

What can I say other than AWESOME. I like Halloween it is my favorite holiday and this little guy is perfect for any Halloween collection. It stands about 6 feet tall without counting the antler/antenna things on the head. It has a couple of modes to get his functions going.


First off the unpacking of this monster. It is not the easiest thing in the world to unpack from the box it is shipped in. The netting likes to catch on everything. As long as you are careful and take your time getting him set up there should not be any problems.


This guy has 3 messages he says when activated. In many places there is also a creepy laughter he offers with his phrases. To get this guy talking you can press the button that is attached to the battery pack. This cord is about 6 inches long so unless you are going to stand in his back pocket it is not a viable path. The second is when you touch his face. This only requires the lightest of touches to activate. Even though this is cool to be touch activated it would have been much better as a motion detected device. Asking people to touch something over and over all asks for the guy to be broken very quickly.


The figure comes with 3 batteries already installed. This is on the back of the head and requires a screwdriver to remove the battery cover. There is a thin plastic strip on the back to pull of this pack for the batteries to make contact and work. The batteries included in this are very cheap and did not last more then a few hours. So be ready to change out the batteries if you go with on your spooky night.


Now for the antlers on top of this guy. They do not have any kind of wire to hold them into place so they will droop down and not hold in place above his head. The arms do have a small wire inside of the foam to help hold them up. Even though the arms do have the wires the hands  on this guy weight a bit and drag them down unless you have the upright. If you have them out  like to reach at a person they will fall to his side after a while.


The frame this guy comes on is possibly the cheapest thing to him. It is some really thin metal rods that go into a base. Much like a fake Christmas tree base. If some one was to be scared by this guy and their fight instinct kicks in, he would be done in by that 4 year old.


Overall this guy is pretty awesome for the price and a great addition to anyones ghoulish figures. I do recommend picking this guy up if you are looking for some new Halloween decor. I would like to thank TCP Global Corporation and affiliates for sending me the spooky guy to try out and share my opinion. I truly can not wait to see how the trick or treaters react to him.

Pastry & Basting Brush Review

This is like many of the other brushes on the market. This is made from silicone including the bristles. The brush is greenish in color and about 12 inches in length. It does cost a little more then the average brush from stores like Wal-Mart or Dollar General but with good reason.


Most brushes like this you can find around the local stores for about five dollars where this one is a couple dollars more. Well the main thing making this brush worth a few extra dollars alone is the clean up. The bristles are much more flexible and will open for easier cleaning better then those cheap brushes. I have used this thing for BBQ sauce on the grill for my meats. Each and every time I take the brush into the house and run it under the water it comes clean without any scrubbing or effort.


The brush can be used for things like buttering pastries before they go into the oven. The bristles are soft enough that they leave no tracks or marks on the surface. It works great for  on the grill as well. This brush does have many uses. If you are in the market for a really nice pastry brush this is one you should consider. I would like to thank Orblue and affiliates for sending me this brush to try out and share my opinion.

Solar Power Camping Lantern Review

This light has a lot going on and neat. It doubles as a flashlight and a lantern. It is a very low cost light that produces a decent light source. Currently it is available in Black and Gold for your color choices.


This light has a silicone handle that you can use to carry it much like a thermos. This will have the light in a horizontal position. It is simple to adjust the torch to this light source. The second requires grabbing the light at both ends and pulling them apart to open the lantern lens. This is also very simple to set the light source to this mode.


The light for this is decently bright. It is enough that if you were to hang it from a strap in a tent it will more than light up the area nicely. This would also work in a basement safe place from storms or something along those lines.


This light offers a USB port to charge your device as needed. There is a cable included in the purchase of this light. However this USB to micro USB cord is only a few inches long. Next on top of the light there is a solar panel to recharge the battery as well. The power cable sent with this light is not a standard american plug type. You will have to buy an adapter to use this plug if you are in America.


I am not sure how durable this light housing will be. It is made from what seems a fairly cheap plastic mold injection type. With this in mind if you have this out while you are camping, I am sure this is not water resistant so if it gets wet it is probably going to be no good unless you let it dry out for a very long time before trying to put power to the unit. The silicone strap looks like it will snap with ease if it gets snagged. The metal clips that hold this strap are bound to give out since you have to work them to change the position.


If you are in the market for a light that can be used in many places this is one that can get the job done. It would be great for camping, crawl spaces, has 2 light modes, produces decent light, and can be recharged with solar power. I would like to thank Microtang and affiliates for sending me this light to try out and share my opinion.
