Awesome wardrobe

To start off, I was really pleased at how fast this arrived. When it did I was super excited about putting it together. I have to say when I opened it, I was shocked and was not so thrilled anymore. There were so many pieces. I figured that it would take hours to put this thing together. I chose to put it up until another day to do. I let it sit for actually one more day and then I figured that I would just bite the bullet and put it together.

I dumped all the pieces out. Do NOT take the metal poles out of the bags, They are each labeled and its only labeled on the bag. I just chose to open the bags and leave the poles in them and pull out as I needed. Then I pulled out the directions. They looked like they would be hard to follow, but believe it or not they were super simple with photos. and each part was labeled in the pictures. You assemble all the shelves first. Once I got the hang of putting them together. I was basically doing it with out following the directions, because each one is put together just like the one before it. (SUPER EASY) I can not stress how easy it was to put it together. It took me less than 40 minutes to assemble it all that includes putting the cover on it.

The poles are really sturdy and the corner plastic pieces are made of nice thick plastic. The poles just slip right in. There are no tools needed to put together. Each shelf bottom is made of a sturdy material. It actually has a little give to it. My 9 year old said the material reminds him of a trampoline. Its not the same material, but has some give like that type of material.

Once it is put together you slip the cover over it. The cover comes already zipped. I found that unzipping the zippers makes it slid on easier. I was able to slip it right over. Once it is on there are little "ties" on it to tie it to the frame to make sure that it says in place. The outside material is really nice. It's great to hide what you have inside the wardrobe and it also protects everything from dust.

The stitching on the material is great. There were no lose threads or missing stitches to be found. The zipper is well attached. It slides open an closed with ease. If you want to leave the shelves open you are able to roll the cover up and it velcros up with a little strap. There are 3 sections the right section has 5 shelves and then the middle has 2 shelves and a hanging rack to hang items like coats or things of that nature on. Then the last section has 5 shelves. Once fully put together, this thing is massive. It was larger than I expected. I was super pleased with the size even though it is larger than I expected. It will hold a lot of items. When it comes to the quality and durability I had to leave 5 stars. I do not think you will find anything nicer for the price you are paying for this. I am super pleased with this product and would recommend this to anyone You should check it out HERE .

Keep Track of your steps







I have been on a strict diet and exercise routine. My husband for my birthday wanted to get me a fit bit. I told him it was a waste of money. That my I phone tracks every step that I take. I never thought about the fact that it is not always on my person when I am taking steps. A the gym or walking around the house it is usually sitting somewhere.

I did not see the since in spending all that money, when I just wanted to track my steps. When I seen this, I just knew that I had to have. This arrived quickly and was easy to set up. It was ready right out of the box. I did not need to go out an purchase batteries or anything like that.

This pedometer is super small, is able to be clipped to your belt, pocket or some other clothing item. There is also a strap that you can hook to it as well, if you want it to hang or something of that nature. It tracks your steps for 24 hour period and resets. It also has a manual reset if you want to just track your steps say at a theme park or something like that. It also has a 30 day memory. It is a very accurate pedometer. I com paired it to my phone and it was spot on with what my phone stated.The display was really easy to read. Over all I am really pleased with my purchase.  If you would like one for yourself then You can check it out HERE .

I have to say that these are the coolest inflatable loungers I have ever seen. I seen a Youtube video of one, and just knew that I had to have one.

When this arrived, I did the first thing that I always do with items I order offline. I checked it for defects and the quality. It arrives in a nice nylon carry bag. The stitching is great. There were no lose threads or missing stitches. The bag was easy to open and to close. The strap is attached really well. I feel that the carry bag will last a long time.

I then removed the inflatable lounger. That's where I became a little confused, lol. It was the same nice quality as the carry bag. I did not find any defects at all on the lounger. The closing end is very sturdy and it snaps with a really sturdy buckle. It actually takes 2 hands to open the buckle. I was impressed with the quality of the closure. There is actually an inside plastic liner. I was unsure if I should have removed it or not, because this product did not come with any type of instructions. I have a friend who got a different brand and hers did not come with instructions either. I do believe that maybe they should be added to these types of products. I am glad that I left the liner alone!! In a video I watched I noticed their liner was left in theirs as well! So do NOT remove the plastic liner inside it!!!!

Then came the "hard" part, getting the lounger inflated. There was no wind at all the day I wanted to test it. My husband and I tried for several minutes, looking like idiots in the front yard trying to get this thing inflated. We did have lots of fun laughing at each other and all the silly ideas that we came up with trying to get it filled. We could not get this thing filled no matter what we did.

We went inside and consulted good old Google and Youtube. I watched a couple of videos and they made it look so easy. I was already frustrated so I just put it down and thought that I would try it later. I was telling my neighbor about my experience because she wanted to get one, so told me to bring it over and she would try. So I ran home got it and we sat down and watched a couple videos and I realized my mistake with her help.

It shows them kind of swooping it from side to side to get air in it. I did that but it had remained flat. They were closing the flap between each swoop to trap the air inside. When I would swoop left then go to swoop right is would loose its air. Once we started to close the flap as we were transferring it to swoop the other direction the sir stayed inside. YAY !!! Filling it with air problem solved.

We then rolled it down as tight as we could and locked it in place. It lost air fairly quickly.. I was now not impressed once again. But before we blamed the product we wanted to make sure it was not user error. We inflated it once more and took our time rolling the end. Made sure that the closure on the end was tight and none of the chair was inside the flap at the end, rolled it super tight and closed it with the plastic buckle and left it alone to see if it deflated. I am so glad we tried it the second time, it was user error, it stayed inflated. I love this lounger. it is so portable and I wont get light headed trying to blow it up, and no more sitting on the ground at places I would hate to lug a huge bulky lawn chair! If you chose to get one and have issues like I did, search YouTube lots of great videos out there and really pay attention to their hands when they are making the swooping motion to fill it! Now that I have the hang of it, it is super easy to fill and use! CHECK IT OUT HERE .

Awesome tent/ sunshade



I already had one of those "pop" up style beach tents and they work great unless there is wind, and there is always a breeze on the beach and putting that thing up is a nightmare. I am sure I have given people lots to laugh at. I wanted something easier to put up and take down. When I seen this I just knew that I had to try it out. It looked perfect for my needs!

This arrived right on time. I am going to the beach this weekend, but could not wait until then. I needed to make sure it was easy to put up and take down, and lets face it, we always want to play with new toys when we get them. The first thing I did was inspect the quality of this tent, starting with the carry bag. The bag is well constructed. The stitching is perfect. There were no lose threads or missing stitches. The handle is well attached and I was able to swing the bag around and did not feel like it was going to "rip" off. The zipper is well attached and slid open and closed with ease.

The next step was to remove the tent from the bag. It was simple and was tied closed. I undid the ropes holding it closed. It was simple to set up, No instructions needed. It was actually set up in a matter of about 2 minutes and that included putting the stakes in the ground to hold it. The legs on the tents have "joints" that you just fold the legs out and the joints "lock" the legs straight. Once it was set up to be used as a tent I went to inspect the tent. The stitching on this was the same quality as the bag. It was perfect. No lose threads or missing stitches. The seams were straight and nice and tight.

There are 2 doors on this tent, that has tie backs to keep them open. You can zip them closed and there are "windows" in each one that you can open that exposes a screen opening to allow air to flow threw the tent with out having the doors open. When you are in the tent looking up the roof is also made of a screen so air can come in that way. There is the "second" roof that would block rain from entering the tent. Inside the tent there is also a mesh pocket that you can store personal items in it.

Now here comes the really cool part about this tent You can actually remove the tent part and just leave the "second roof" That way you have a sun shade and not a full blown tent. It is really easy to remove the tent from the main structure of the shade. I have included photos so you see how it is attached and removed. That process was simple as well. If you can unbutton a shirt then it's that simple. Once the inner tent was removed it made the perfect sunshade. I have full view of everything with out sitting under the hot Florida sun.

When it came to putting it up, I thought here comes trouble. I was wrong , all I did was reattach the inner tent and then fold the legs back into place tie the ties back around it and it slid perfectly into the bag that it came in. I must also add that it was not a super windy day when I put it up, but there was a slight breeze and I had no issues with this tent while it was up. This is perfect for camping out in and for a fun day at the beach if you need shade. I am super pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone needing a good tent or sunshade! IF you want one for your own you can purchase it HERE .

I love these pans so much I got a set for my bestfriend!








I already owned the 12 inch pan and loved it so much that I bought the set of 3. Then I got another set for my best friend.  I can not tell you how amazing these pans are. They have been a great addition to my kitchen and am pleased to have them.

They are nice heavy duty pans. They do not feel "cheap" by any means. They have nice silicone handles that make it easy to move hot items from your stove.  The inside of the pan has a nice not stick coating. The inside of the pan is also textured. It does give grilled cheese a funny toast mark, but they still turn out amazing. I have yet to find anything that sticks to these pans. I have been using my 12 inch skillet for a while now and the inside non stick is still as nice as it was the day I got it! I have been using silicone, plastic and bamboo utensils with it to make sure that I do not scratch the non stick coating! This set also comes with felt protectors so you can stack them on top of each other when you store them! Once again I love these pans! If you would love to have a set of these awesome pans, you can purchase them HERE .  I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Gel pens

I loved gel pens when I was in high school. They were the coolest thing to have (many many moons ago). I love to color with my children and doodle. I only had colored pencils, crayons, and markers. These pens have replaced all of those. They brought back so many fun memories of being in high school.

This is the largest set I have ever owned, even when I was in school. I didn't have that many colors to chose from. These are so vibrant. They are so smooth then using them. I have had some when I was younger that seemed to snag or catch on the paper, like the tip was rough. I did not have that issue with these, even the glitter ones.

These are perfect to color in coloring books, doodling, and scrap booking. These are also even great for making cards or letter s personalized. They would work for any craft that you can think of. The other thing that I really enjoy about these pens that, the ink does not smear or end up on your hands. The ink stays on the page where you want it! I am really pleased with my purchase! If you would like a set of these for yourself, you can do so, Here .

great boys boxer briefs




These are great little boys boxer briefs. I ordered a size 8 my son is 11 but a little on the small size and these fit him perfectly. I would say they are true to size, maybe even a little bigger so this is perfect for a child that might be a chunky size 8. The material is really soft. It also has a lot of stretch to them.

The waist also has a lot of stretch to it. My son said they were very comfortable to wear and that they did not bother him or ride up. I washed one pair and they held up in the wash and did not shrink. The color stayed just as nice and vibrant as it was before I washed it. Over all I am really pleased with my purchase! If you would like to purchase these then you can HERE
