Promising review: "Not only was this the coolest present I have found for a friend, and not only does it smell amazing, but the seller went out of their way to make sure it would get here in time and was so wonderful through the whole process. I would highly recommend purchasing from this shop due to the wonderful service and high quality of products!" —Catherine
Promising review: "Pops ALL the corn quickly. Steam vents allow corn to come out just right and not tough. Combine butter and oil all at once and pour in kernels and afterwards a few dashes of salt, and all popcorn, even the cheapest comes out super! Pops any amount small to large and finishes popping fast which is great for popping a second batch. Easy cleanup. Nothing burns on and releases fats with a dash of detergent. Have owned many popcorn makers in multi decades. This one is the best." —Queenie

It takes about 10-15 minutes to complete each day and has become a peaceful ritual I look forward to before bedtime. Five stars from me :)" —MissKriss

Promising review: "This cookie scoop is easy to use, high quality construction. I've had the bigger one for two or three years, and I use it all the time. It's faster and neater than a measuring spoon, the grip is cushioned, it's easy to wash, and it still looks brand new. I just have the smaller one and I'm just as happy with it." —Bmgi47

Promising review: "Got this gift for my significant other, who is a profound puppy lover. She adored them very much and uses them a lot more than she thought I might. They heat up a lot more than expected and although they are very large, the footbed is as snug as a glove." —heverlybills

Promising review: "Recipient is an avid reader. Always with a book in her hand. Although some of the books were already read by her...an easy scratch off. It gave her a reason to reread others. Some not on her radar but now added to her future reads. Great idea...and it's not limited to the recipient. Others can share these must reads." —Vicki

I appreciate ya, nature. I just appreciate chocolate more.
Promising review: "I very very rarely write reviews, but I had to write about this one! I bought this for my boys for Valentine's Day, they love s'mores and thought it would be the perfect little gadget. Let me just say, it definitely meets my expectations. Once the electric coil warms up, the marshmallows toast pretty quickly over the 'flame.' Taste just like they do when made outside on a fire pit! It's pretty small but you can easily do two marshmallows at a time. I would definitely recommend this product!" —dlw317

Promising review: "The iridescent water bottle is not only beautiful, but it's also of very excellent quality. The blue to purple shine is rather eye catching and quite stunning.

Promising review: "I have absolutely no experience with yoga and on suggestion from a friend came to Gaiam. This kit has everything you need to begin your path to wellness. The block and strap are almost essential for a first-timer; they helped me understand the stability of each pose. One of the classes shows you how to use them and WHY. Important for some. Very helpful for first timers. Rodney Yee has a very calming and clear voice. His instruction is simple and concise. For those beginning or those unable to find good beginner classes nearby, this is an excellent start kit. The price can NOT be beat." —Syndria

Promising review: "I bought these for my boyfriend and myself who live 700 miles apart. These really help make the distance seem shorter as it feels like he's right there with me when I get a tap. I'll be at work and get a tap from him and it brightens my day. A sweet message combined with a tap from the bracelet helps to make me feel better about being apart." —darla
