(Product Review) Queen Size Navy Blue Bedsure Ultra-Soft Microfiber Sheets

I got a 4 piece set of the Queen Size Navy Blue Bedsure Ultra-Soft Microfiber Sheets, and have been really happy with them so far. The set includes a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillow cases. I really love the super soft microfiber polyester material that these are made from.

The softness of this set is superb. It is comparable to that of a 1,500 thread count Egyptian cotton set. They are the most comfortable bed sheets I have owned, and are really a pleasure to snuggle up with. The quality is very good, with beautiful stitching and no loose threads.

The queen size flat sheet measures 90 inches by 102 inches, the fitted sheet measures 60 inches by 80 inches, and the two pillow cases measure 20 inches by 30 inches each. They fit on my queen size bed very nicely, and also work well on the inflatable queen sized air mattress. I have had no problems with the corners coming off the mattress like has happened in the past with some of the other sheets I have bought. The elastic at the corners is very good quality and it has nice deep pockets that it will fit and stay on the corners of your mattress without any issues. I wasn't sure how well it would stay because I have had some sheets that were just too tight to fit well and stay in place. I had no problem with this sheet set through. They worked very nicely.

These are available in multiple sizes including twin, full, queen and king size sheet sets. These are available in a variety of colors including grey, camel, ivory, and sage green in addition to the navy blue that I chose for my own bed. I had a hard time deciding since all of the colors look so nice, but the picture with the  dark blue sheet with the white stitching just popped out at me so that is the one I chose. I was really torn between this one and the grey one though since either would look wonderful on by bed. I would have liked to see some shade of red as another color option, but blue or grey both go well in my room too.

In addition to being extremely soft and comfortable, these are also very easy to care for. These sheets can be washed in the washing machine at a cold temperature setting on the gentle cycle. Do not use any bleach on these sheets. They may be tumble dried on a low setting for best results. If properly cared for they did not fade or wrinkle when taken out of the dryer. They look beautiful, and I plan on keeping them that way as long as possible, so following the recommended fabric care instructions is an important choice for me. The quality of this set is such that I am confident that these will last for a long time and continue to look beautiful. I highly recommend this sheet set to anyone who enjoys a comfortable nights sleep.

(Product Review) BIG 32 Oz. Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Spot & Stain Remover Spray By VeryDirtyCarpets Free Stain Removal Guide. Best Concentrated Carpet Cleaner Product For Home Use Pet Stains & Very Dirty Carpets by VeryDirtyCarpets,

Between dogs, kids, and grandkids, and life itself, it seems I am always cleaning up some sort of carpet or upholstery mishaps, so when I go the chance to try out this BIG 32 Oz. Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Spot & Stain Remover Spray By VeryDirtyCarpets with Free Stain Removal Guide. I was eager to test it on a few of these spots and stains.

I have used a variety of carpet cleaners, upholstery cleaners and spot removers in the past with mixed results, so I always go into such a task with low expectations. If it doesn't work at least I tried, but when it does work it is a very happy surprise. So far I am having pretty good luck with this spot remover, although I must say that you really need to read the directions before using so that you use the proper technique for best results.

Unlike some of the other carpet or upholstery cleaners I have used in the past, this one does not require a complete soaking of the area or extreme scrubbing. This product is very easy to use. You simply spray the stain, agitate with a soft brush, blot the carpet, and vacuum. I have had no problems at all with the pet stains I cleaned up with this spot and stain remover.

I also like that this product comes with a free stain removal guide so you can look over some of the difficult stains listed here and see advice from a professional carpet cleaner on how to get certain stains out. Of course no product is going to get out every stain, but so far, this has been the very best stain remover I have tried for getting some of those stubborn stains out.

The company notes that this is not intended for color stains such as cordials, soft drink stains however I have had at least as good of luck with this product as I have with most of the other products I have tried. I also like that since the carpet does not need to be thoroughly saturated like is required with some of the other products, I haven't gotten those horrible water marks that often get left behind when spot cleaning stains.

I still have further testing to do on several unknown stains, however I don't know if there is a product on the market that can get some of them out since they have been there so long. These remaining stains are ones that were not able to be removed completely by other products, and are probably a permanent part of my carpet by now, but like I said before, it can't hurt to try and maybe I will be happily surprised.

Whether or not the old stains come out, I know that it worked well for some of the more recent spots and stains, and definitely give this product my approval because of the results I have had so far. I only wish that they made a full carpet cleaner that worked so well since my entire carpet would highly benefit from such a product.

Although I got this product at a discount or received a complimentary sample in exchange for my honest review, all thoughts and opinions on the products I review are always my own and have not been influenced by any discounts or samples which may have been provided to me.

Before spraying this spot I though it was a pet stain, but once sprayed I can clearly see that it has some red color to it leading me to believe that it may be a spill of some sort. I am not sure what this stain is, only that it has been here for a while. Since it is a color stain of some sort, I am not counting on it being removed. 

As you can see, the stain is rather pronounced and is not likely to come out with this or most other cleaners on the market, especially without removing color from the fabric as well.

Although the spot is still slightly damp, you can clearly see that most of the stain has already been removed, and there is no damage to the fabric from this cleaner. It looks as if the cleaner has removed at least the majority of the stain, so I am very happy with this product.

(Product Review) EurKitchen Professional-Grade Culinary Torch

I had the opportunity to use the EurKitchen Professional-Grade Culinary Torch and am really enjoying it. I had never used a culinary torch before but had lots of ideas on how it might come in handy, and I could have a lot of fun experimenting with it.

So far I have only gotten to try out a couple of my ideas because even though the description says that you can quickly refill with any brand of butane (not included), I managed to find the one can that would not work with this torch. Having never purchased this type of fuel before I asked a store employee for help finding butane, and the only can we found had a nozzle that was not long enough.

My son happened to have just a little left though, so I did get to at least test it out by roasting us a hot dog and a marshmallow. They came out wonderfully, and I didn't have to freeze to build a bonfire in the snow for our little cookout.  My son says that what I bought was butane for a camp stove, and what I needed was the kind of canister for refilling a lighter.

Now that I know this, I will get the right kind so I can continue with my cooking experiments. I'm loving this gadget and can hardly wait until I get more fuel so that I can use my new kitchen gadget for more fun and exciting things. As much as I am enjoying this, I am sure it is something I will be using much more.

I spend a lot of time in the kitchen and whether I am grating a bit of cheese,chocolate, garlic, ginger, or other spices, or perhaps zesting a bit of citrus, The Mr. CookWare Stainless Steel Grater Zester will easily get the job done. The stainless steel blades are make short work of whatever I throw at it. 

This sturdy kitchen gadget feels solid enough that I don't need to be concerned about it breaking. I have used this several times now to add citrus zest to my lemonade or other drinks,as well as for grating spices, hard cheeses and chocolate for meals and desserts I have made. 

I find that it works very well and cleanup is a breeze with the easy cleaning brush that comes with it. You can also toss it in the dishwasher if you prefer. They even provided a protective cover for when you have it cleaned up and ready to put away. This is nice because it can protect you and your loved ones from the blades when reaching into a drawer for your grater/zester.

(Product Review) Comenzar 5" Flickering Flameless Candle, Flameless Candle with Remote Timer

I love candles, and use them a lot in my home. I am really enjoying this Comenzar 5" Flickering Flameless Candle, Flameless Candle with Remote Timer because it is the most realistic looking electronic candle I own. 

This battery operated candle comes with a remote so you can adjust it in a few ways. It has a timer so you can turn it on and set it to turn off at 2,4,6, or 8 hours, then it will automatically come back on in 24 hour cycles unless you turn off the remote timer. It also has settings for both lighting mode and for brightness. You can choose to have a steady light, or a moving, flickering flame, and to have it dimmer or brighter. Adjust it however you like and enjoy the natural appearance of this flameless electronic candle. 

It uses 3 AA batteries which are easily obtained in nearly any store, which is much better than some of the other flameless candles I have bought in the past that required batteries that weren't nearly as easy to obtain. The only thing that could make this better would be a rechargeable power source rather than replaceable batteries. Even so, I generally have a few rechargable AA batteries around so I will probably have some freshly charged batteries on hand most times when they are needed.

(Product Review) 6" Rainfall High Pressure Shower Head by HappyMoon Bath Essentials. Wall Mounted Adjustable Showerhead

We recently replaced a clogged shower head with this 6" Rainfall High Pressure Shower Head by HappyMoon Bath Essentials. 

The wall mounted adjustable shower head was pretty easy to install. The hardest part was actually getting the old shower head off in order to replace it. It has a good water pressure which is a great improvement over my old clogged unit. 

I do miss being able to adjust the spray though, and since this one has a high pressure and no way to restrict the flow, it uses a lot more water than some of the other shower heads I have used. I do like the feel of the rainfall shower head, and would recommend it though. Just know that you will be using more water than some of the restricted or lower flow types.

(Product Review) Basics Best Balloon Reusable Food Pouches

I have been using reusable food pouches for a while, and this time I will be talking about the Basics Best Balloon Reusable Food Pouches that I have been using for fill and go snacks for my grandkids and myself.

These pouches make it simple to take a snack along wherever you go without having to worry about bringing along a lot of extras. These pouches have a zipper type closure which makes it easy to fill with a variety of soft foods such as applesauce, yogurt, pudding, baby food, or other foods with a similar consistency.

They make it convenient to carry such snacks along when going for a longer car ride with the little ones because I won't have to stop to give them something to eat along the way. We won't need to bring along a bowl and spoon, and they can eat their snack while I continue to drive. I also don't have to worry about them making a mess in the car with these pouches. They have used them several times and have not made a mess yet.

Also, I have a grandson who refuses to eat fruit or even drink fruit juice unless it comes out of a drink box or drink pouch. These can be expensive in comparison to a larger bottle of juice, but with these reusable food pouches I can make him his own drink pouches, and also get him to eat a few other things like my homemade applesauce or fruited yogurts. This will help him get the nutrition he needs.

These pouches clean up nicely. You can wash them in hot soapy water or put them in the dishwasher. If you rinse them right away after use they practically wash themselves, but in the event that they have to ride around in the car and the food is dried on a bit, just soak them for a short time and they will come clean easily.

I like these pouches because they help protect the environment for all the disposables that are so commonly used, as well as that they are so easy and convenient to use. My grandkids like the cute designs, and the variety of snacks that can easily be brought along wherever we go.

(Product Review) 2PM Essentials Frosted Cobalt Blue Roller Bottles

I love essential oils and these 2PM Essentials Frosted Cobalt Blue Roller Bottles are perfect for taking some of my favorite essential oil blends along with me wherever I go. 

I ordered the 2 pack of these 10 ml roller bottles and used them for a couple of my essential oil blends. I love the beautiful color of the cobalt blue frosted glass, and the darker colors like this are great for protecting your delicate essential oils from light which can affect the quality and longevity of your oils. 

Filling the bottles is easy. Most oils should be diluted for topical use, so I fill my bottles most of the way with a carrier oil such as coconut oil, olive oil, or other similar carrier oil. The choice is yours on this, but I used coconut oil this time because that is what I had on hand. Next you add just a drop or two of your favorite oils to the bottle. You can experiment with other essential oils until you find what works best for you, but I like to use peppermint and lavender for migraine relief, so I just add a couple of drops of each into the roller bottle. The roller top pops back onto the bottle easily and stays firmly in place. 

I love the metal roller balls because they hold up so much better than the plastic ones, although even the plastic ones work well for some oils. These roller balls worked well, gliding my oil blends smoothly onto my skin. If you have any difficulties getting the oils to come out, usually a quick shake of your bottle will loosen things up and the oil will come out easily. 

I had no trouble at all applying my oils, and I found no signs of leaking while carrying these around in my pocket or purse. They are attractive enough for display, make great gifts, and are easily portable. I love these bottles, and my only regret is that I only got a package of two instead of one of the larger package options.

(Product Review) Outdoor TV Cover by Clicks

My friends and I enjoy karaoke, and during warmer weather we enjoy karaoke parties. Because of this, we sometimes end up with a TV or computer monitor that spends some time outdoors at once of these parties. I bought the Outdoor TV Cover by Clicks to insure that our TV does not get ruined by dust or weather conditions during the times it isn't actually in use.

This television cover fits up to a 42 inch TV screen, and helps protect it from the elements. I haven't taken it outdoors yet since we are in the middle of a Michigan winter, but it appears to be well made and solid enough to deter the rain (or maybe snow), dust, and the sun's UV rays, from damaging our expensive television.

The TV cover slips easily onto your television, and can be adjusted using the attached Velcro straps to insure that it stays firmly in place for added protection. There is a built in pouch on the cover so once it is in place you can put your remote control in the pocket to keep it safe as well. It also comes with a nice microfiber cloth for keeping your television screen clean. This is a nice set and should do a great job of protecting your television.

(Product Review) Kitchen Gizmo Citrus Slicer

I got the Kitchen Gizmo Citrus Slicer because I cut a lot of fruit for snacks for my grandchildren and myself, and also for adding to my tea or infused waters. 

This gadget works great for cutting fruits into 6 equally sized wedges, and makes serving healthy snacks and drinks quick and easy. It comes apart into 3 pieces; the citrus holder, blade and the bowl. After separating the pieces you simply place your fruit in the holder, attach the lid to the slicer, then line up the blade with the slots on the holder. The lid acts as a safety feature, keeping the blades away from your fingers while you press down on the cover. 

Once the slicing is done, you simply flip the gizmo over and the cover doubles as a bowl, holding your freshly cut fruit. It works quickly and easily to slice your fruit into uniform sections. So far I have tried this on an apple, an orange, a lemon and a lime and all worked well. 

The fruits all sliced nicely with very little effort, and gave me beautiful fruit wedges in just a few seconds. There was no mess since everything was contained inside the gizmo, and cleanup was also easy since this can be either washed in hot soapy water or tossed in the dishwasher. The wedges are perfect for snacks, infused waters, fruited ice cubes, mixed drinks, and more. This is a handy item for anyone who uses fruit wedge for these or other purposes.

(Product Review) Baby Bandana Drool Bibs, Unisex 4-Pack Absorbent Cotton With 3 Snaps, Cute Baby Gift Set By Pashoshi (Baby Product)

My own babies are not so little any more, but there have been 4 new babies added to the family in the past year. This 4-pack of Baby Bandana Drool Bibs was something we had to have. It comes with four adorable drool bibs, one for each of the babies. 

The bibs are made of an absorbent cotton, and lined with a soft fleece material. Each bib can be adjusted to fit anywhere from a newborn to 24 month old babies by using the snaps on the back of the bib. There is a pacifier clip and baby bottle holder included with the bibs in this set. 

They did a good job of absorbing messes from drooling babies, and since the little ones are teething, there is a lot of drool. It is suggested that these be either washed in cold water or hand washed, then laid flat to dry. It isn't a big deal, but I would prefer that these could be tossed in the dryer with the rest of their laundry rather than remembering to take them out. This is a nice set and I would recommend it to parents, as well as to those who are looking for a nice baby shower gift.

(Product Review) Stainless Steel Can Opener from X-Chef - Manual Kitchen Tool with Attached Bottle Cap Opener and Soda Tab Lifter

I was really surprised to see the negative reviews posted here for the Stainless Steel Can Opener from X-Chef - Manual Kitchen Tool with Attached Bottle Cap Opener and Soda Tab Lifter because I have been really happy with the quality of the one I got.

I can't begin to tell you how many manual can openers I have gone through just trying to find one that works well on a consistent basis. It seems that every time I buy a new can opener, it either doesn't work well to begin with or breaks within just a very short time. I haven't been using this one for very long, but it works wonderfully so far and feels solid enough to last.

I really like the larger handle on this can opener because it is easy for me to grip. Even though I have a bit of trouble with my hands sometimes, I have no problem at all griping or turning the large knob so opening cans is simple and painless. It also comes with an attached bottle cap opener and the pop tab lifter and although I don't use these features often, it might come in handy for some people. This stainless steel can opener is attractive to look at, easy to clean, and easy to store. I can either hang it by the hanging loops on the end of the handles, or hang it from the magnetic knife holder in my kitchen. Either way it is within easy reach whenever I need it.

(Product Review) New and Improved Orksun Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Bright White LED Night Light With Precision Sensor

A few strategically placed night lights placed in the darker areas of the house can do wonders in preventing stubbed toes and other mishaps during the nighttime hours. This is especially important when my grandchildren come to stay with me for a night or two. These New and Improved Orksun Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Bright White LED Night Light With Precision Sensor are a great choice. These are an attractive little light that really does the job.

They come in a set of two LED lights that can be plugged into any standard outlet to enlighten your darkest corners. These lights are quite bright for a nightlight, and are very useful when the kids are visiting. These have no on/off switch. The photosensitive feature turns them on when it gets dark and off when it is daylight, so I don't have to remember to do this myself.

I like that the kids don't need to turn on big lights throughout the house when they need to get up to use the bathroom during the night, and then forgetting to turn them back off when they are finished. These nightlights are a very attractive and useful addition to my home.

(Product Review) Tea Infuser Spoon Drip Tray Gift Set for Loose Tea

I have used a variety of tea infusers but have never had a set quite like this Tea Infuser Spoon Drip Tray Gift Set for Loose Tea.

This is a beautiful tea infuser set with three sizes of premium strainers, three drip trays and one spoon. Each of these reusable stainless steel filters comes with an weighted chain that is extendable to just about any length so you can set the depth of your tea strainer to the perfect location within your cup, mug or pitcher.

The smallest of the three infusers is perfect for a smaller cup of tea, while the medium size works wonderfully for a larger mug. If you prefer to make an entire pitcher of tea, just add your loose leaf tea to the largest size, then submerge into your pitcher. When your tea is done, just pull the trainer out with the attached chain and place it on the drip tray to eliminate the mess from dripping tea on your furniture. You can order these from the website listed above, and if you enjoy this product, you can like CentiMom on Facebook.

If you are an outdoor enthusiast like me you probably enjoy a good bonfire, and along with the bonfire generally comes roasted hotdogs and smores. My grandkids love to roast hotdogs and marshmallows, and although we could do it on sticks like we have done for years, these Extendable Telescoping Hot Dog Forks & S'mores Skewers work great for all the kids.

This set comes with 4 marshmallow roasting sticks that easily extend from 12 to 32 inches long so you can stay a safe distance from your campfire or bonfire while roasting hotdogs or marshmallows. These are a truly wonderful item for kids because you can easily keep them at a good distance and you don't have to worry about their marshmallow sticks catching on fire. The sturdy stainless steel forks have a nice wooden handle that is easy to grip. They are easy to clean and since they come with an attractive carrying case so it is very easy to take them along wherever you go. This is a very useful accessory for camping or even for the backyard bonfire. I have only used these a couple of times so far because of the weather, but will definitely be using them a lot more once the weather warms up.

(Product Review) ORKSUN Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Adjustable Louver LED Night Light with Precision Sensor

I often need to get up during the night and since there are several dark areas in my house, I have been thinking of putting in a few small night lights so I don't need to turn on lights throughout the house. This is even more important though when I have house guests,which happens often. I got the two pack of ORKSUN Automatic Dusk-to-Dawn Adjustable Louver LED Night Light with Precision Sensor, along with another set of nightlights for my own safety, as well as for those times when friends or family members spend time at my house.

These attractive louvered nightlights plug easily into a standard electrical outlet and because the angle of the louvers are adjustable, I can control the amount of light provided by these night lights. These lights have no on/off switch but are controlled by sensors so I don't have to worry about turning them on at night or off in the morning.

They use very little energy for the amount of light they provide and I can rest assured that my grandchildren can make it to the bathroom without tripping over each other or the dog. I am also very happy that they don't need to turn on a bunch of lights throughout the house, and end up leaving them all on when they go back to bed. I recommend these lights because they are not only attractive but also very practical and are something that would be useful in any household.
