Promising review: "Had moths infesting my leather shop, so I put out about 4 of these traps and within the first week I had 3 of them so full that I ordered more. It has been about 6 weeks since the second order and I haven't seen a moth since.
I noticed that those clustered together worked better than the one off on its own; perhaps the pheromone compounds when clustered. Either way, the moths are dead and my leather inventory is safe." —1836

Promising review: "Such a cute thermal top. I love wearing it half tucked and off the shoulder. It is slouchy and comfy. I love the mustard yellow color, but i am obsessed with yellow.

Promising review: "So easy to set up! All you do is peel tape and adhere to a CLEAN and DRY door. Also looks great, I don't even notice it. I had a huge gap under my door. I could smell and hear everything from the hallway. Smells, drafts, and sound all are less of an issue now." —Brit B.

Promising review: "I just noticed a cold draft coming in from the door between my porch and kitchen. Ordered the 1/2 inch wide, 1/8 inch thick, 50 ft (perfect fit). Super easy, works and looks great! The door is a little more snug to close and needs an extra push, but that's the way it's supposed to be. I have extra weatherstripping for future door projects if needed." —KG in CT

This is my favorite odor-neutralizing candle ever. Most on the market just smell like fresh laundry, which is nice(!) but also extremely telling to its purpose for anyone who gets a whiff. It's extremely potent from the start, burns for 60 hours (tho, tbh, prob more in my experience), and people will never guess it's meant for pet households. Check out my full review of One Fur All Pet House candles.

Promising review: "I AM GOING TO SAVE SO MANY PLANTS!!! I was truly a horrible plant parent for the last 30 years, but this book has changed that! I am definitely on the road to recovery, I feel like everyday my plants live I am less and less like the plant murderer I was. Book is stupid simple to understand, colorful, and SUPER DUPER informative. Heck you can even find your plant without knowing its name!" —Jeremy

FYI, reviewers say it's a good idea to size up.
Promising review: "I LOVE these slippers. SO comfortable with the memory foam and warm. Love the thick rubber sole on the bottom, so there is no way you would slip. I bought these to bring to the hospital when I give birth, but I am wearing these all the time. My only complaint is that I wear a size 10 shoe. After reading some reviews that these run slightly small (I wear these with and without socks), I opted for the 11/12 size and so glad I did. They fit me perfectly. So, I would definitely size up!" —emily

Reviewers note that you should remove the bulbs before stringing up the strands and then install the bulbs.
Promising review: "These lights were perfect for my patio, I've recieved plenty of compliments so far. The Edison light bulbs and beautiful and offer the perfect amount of lighting for any occasion...the clips were ideal for my eves, the over hang of the roof, which made for simple installation...now just need to find a dimmer capable of handling the required wattage and the package will be complete." —Brody Vins

All of these lighting options come in handy year-round but come fall, you're dealing with more dark time and it's a good time to think about this stuff!
Promising review: "Very, very impressed!!! I have other D battery operated motion lights at my residence, but I decided to go with these based on reviews here, as I'm tired of shelling out 15 to 20 bucks on D batteries every few months. I placed these 4 Baxia Solar lights on all sides of my house in areas that I've found could use some light to enter gates late at night — they have exceeded my expectations!!! These are well worth the money, as the light they produce is not only bright, but stays on for about a minute or more. Exactly, what I needed. I will buy again!" —Grecks

Promising review: "We had a small piece of leftover steak. I sliced it thin, took two slices of American Rye bread, (had to cut a half of an inch off so that it would fit in the toaster), put cilantro salad dressing and Norwegian cheese on each slice. Then I put the steak and fried onions on one slice, covered it with the other slice and put it in the toaster bag. Set the toaster to 5 (mid-setting on our toaster), put the bag in the 'Single Slice' slot and pushed down the lever. A few minutes later the bag popped up, I was surprised the bag could be handled without any gloves. The sandwich was nicely toasted and the cheese was melted. Some of the melted cheese was at the bottom of the bag. I reached in to see how messy it was going to clean up, but the melted cheese came out in one piece." —Tom in Pittsburgh

FYI, if your garden hoses freeze, they're ruined!
Promising review: "I use these medium Wrap-It storage straps to hang garden soaker hoses on my garage wall during winter months. Secure 'hook and loop' grip is easy to close and adjust, and is more than strong enough to bear the weight. Large grommet sizing is ample enough to hang on nails or hooks of various sizes. Great replacement for the zip ties I was using before. Highly recommended!" —Huancayo

Promising review: "Completely restored my three year old grill grates. Used to clean them with a box of Brillo pads and a headache but this product did the job so efficiently. Will definitely be keeping on hand for as needed cleaning. Would recommend cleaning in a deep sink so you can rinse stone residue off as you go, cannot use this at the grill without rinsing as the stone gets smaller as you go. Worth the price!" —hbinoc
