What Your Contractor Can't Tell You: The Essential Guide to Building and Reno...
by Amy Johnston
Amazon Price: $14.36
Customer Review: We're just in the process of putting out to bid plans to remodel our home. We live in an upscale area where multi-million dollar homes aren't unusual so our significantly, significantly less than that budget pales in comparison to what most of the contractors in the area are accustomed to. Also, they are accustomed to working on a time and materials basis for absentee owners. (If you don't know now why time and materials isn't a particularly good way to work with a contractor or why using a time...

Classical for Home Improvement
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: I grew up with this album playing constantly as my parents built the house I lived in until I went away to college, and have very find memories associated with all of these tracks. In fact, it was probably this album that inspired me to take up the string bass in orchestra in elementary school, and keep up with it all throughout my years in school!
The Money Pit
Amazon Price: $5.99
Customer Review: I have loved this movie ever since I was a kid, laughing at all of the funny things that happened to the characters. After watching it at my age now (early 20s) I get more of the jokes and it's even better. I'm glad to own this on DVD and it is widescreen (at least on my Mac Laptop) plus there are behind the scenes features. Favorite, favorite favorite movie of my childhood.
Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House
Amazon Price: $7.99
Customer Review: This is an all time classic, that every home purchaser should see.
"The Money Pit" wasa a very weak remake. This is the settlement gift
that I present to all of my purchasers. It stands the test of time.
I've given over 50 away with no one disappointed.

Honeywell RCWL300A1006 Premium Portable Wireless Door Chime and Push Button
Amazon Price: $28.88
Customer Review: The shipping was quick, and the door bell worked just like they said it would. I'm very pleased! I thought that the installation instructions could have been a little bit more clearly written, but that was a very minor point.
Earthmate EP2352AK 23-Watt Super Mini-Spiral CFL 2700K Bulb, 6 Pack
Amazon Price: $22.70
Customer Review: Very bright light similar to an incandescent, small & compact size for the light output it provides. Too bright for my living room but perfect for overhead fixtures where you need a lot of light (kitchen/bathroom). Recommended!
Earthmate EP1557AE 15-Watt Super Mini-Spiral CFL Full Spectrum Bulb, 6 Pack

Whirlpool W10135699 Affresh High Efficiency Washer Cleaner, 3-Tablets
Amazon Price: $9.65
Customer Review: I couldn't tell the difference in using this product. I followed the directions and used it for the first time three times in a row (1 tablet each time) and didn't see any difference in the mold on the rubber gasket. These tabs are expensive. Maybe they work if your washer is brand new and you start using it from the beginning, but my washer is 4 years old and they didn't have this product then!

AccuSharp 3036-2024 Knife Sharpener Replacement Blades
Amazon Price: $7.58
Customer Review:
About ten years ago a friend walked in and said, "Hey, I got something for you Chef."
I have cooked professionally, and at home for many years, and I was blown away by the Accusharpe.
I thought "this is some kind of cheap little gimmick," but, Nay, far from it, this is by far the best knife sharpener I've ever used, and since getting this one I've given all the others to Goodwill.
America's Test Kitchen showed results of 10 high-end sharpeners, including ...
Whirlpool W10165294RB 15-Inch Plastic Compactor Bags with Odor Remover, 60-Pack
Amazon Price: $41.66
Customer Review: Even though I own a Kenmore Compactor, the bags fit perfect. The holes line up and there is enough room left around the top to fold the edge over and plenty to tie up when full. Three layers of material and no odor when tied up to throw away. Definitely economical, one box of 60 should last over a year. Highly recommended !
Master Lock 4688D TSA Accepted Cable Luggage Lock in Assorted Colors, 1-Pack
Amazon Price: $7.63
Customer Review: All luggage locks are cheaply made when you compare them to a regular Master lock, but all things considered I'm very happy with this lock. Both ends are secured, unlike some other locks where one end of the loop hangs freely just inside the top hole of the lock. Only con is that you can't choose color, but I got the one I wanted anyway (red).
Master Lock 4687DNKL Instant Alert TSA Accepted Luggage Lock
Amazon Price: $8.49
Customer Review: Unlike other suit case locks security won't cut through these! And the red popup thing is really nice because you know if they went through your suit case whether they left a note or not!
KidCo 4 Lock Set
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: These magnet locks are wonderful. They stay put using adhesive, they are easy to install, they are easy to operate, and they keep the drawers and cabinets closed more than the latch type so little fingers don't get pinched if they managed to pull the drawer or cabinet open a little. I am very happy with my purchase and plan to purchase more! Just remember as other reviewers have noted that these are LOCKS ONLY and you still need a key or buy the starter set with 2 locks and a key.
Mommy I'm Here cl-103br Child Locator, Brown
Amazon Price: $24.95
Customer Review: I bought this to use in Disney World. I didn't really use this device on our trip, because it was so sensitive that it would go off accidently when lightly touched as we were walking around. It was very loud. If I had needed it this would have worked from pretty far away and would have gotten others attention. I wish it didn't go off when it was barely bumped because it would have been a great for my piece of mind.

April Shower APHH Handheld Shower Head and Filter Includes Pulse Massage
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: This filter might have good filters, but after using the first week, it felt 5 times on to my head, and my legs.
The handle holder design is horrible. After one week it broke because it made out of plastic!!!!
Is this a joke or what? Do I need to use a ducted tape to keep the handle up?
Returning this ASAP.

Live
Amazon Price: $11.98
Customer Review: This CD is palatable in its overall execution. It would have been better if she had picked another opener rather than the pop oriented So, So Long. It also would have been better if she had included more traditional stuff at least one of her waltzes like "Today All Over Again", "I'm Not THat Lonely Yet" (my favorite Reba song of all time) or "You're the First Time I've thought about leaving. Towards the end as she is talking about her musical influences we were shortchanged as true Country so...
Good Earth Lighting, Inc. G9524CLR-I 24-Foot Rope Lighting, Clear
Amazon Price: $16.83
Customer Review: Just got these in the mail today, and as soon as I went to put them up 2 sections of the lights burnt out. If you jiggle them ALOT, they will turn back on for a minute, but then they go out again. It's not worth trying to mess with them constantly, so I'm going to return them. I would just go buy these types of lights in a store like Lowe's or something in the future, to avoid having to deal with the whole shipping drama for returns, etc. Cheap, cheap, cheap!
Good Earth Lighting G9512CLR-I 12-Foot Rope Lighting, Clear
Amazon Price: $10.64
Customer Review: This is the second set we purchased....the first set wore out after years and years and years of daily use. We put these on our deck and they look so pretty and shed just the right amount of light too. We would definitely recommend this product to others.

Expo 7-Piece Original Dry Erase Organizer Kit
Amazon Price: $9.76
Customer Review: A four by six foot Expo white board has been on the wall of my office for years. As easy as the white board is to use, I still miss the look of the old slate chalk boards. Of course, I do not miss the messiness of the chalk dust that used to get over everything. I had no idea that there were black dry erase boards. Now, I have one! I just received an Expo black board and neon marker combo. I love it.
The black board now sits on the wall above my desk. It attaches to the wall m...
Peltor H10A Optime 105 Over-the-Head Earmuff
Amazon Price: $18.71
Customer Review: I bought these as a gift for my dad when his old earmuffs broke -- I read a bit about noise-cancelling gear, ear protection and decibel levels a bit before I selected these, and chose these for their specified noise-reduction ratings [up to 105dB] -- but the proof is that my dad is thrilled with these. He wears them when he mows, uses the electric hedge trimmers or other noisy equipment, and he loves them. He says they look kind of like his old ones, but that these are not only much more effect...
Little Giant VCMA-15ULS Condensate Removal 1/50 HP Pump with Safety Switch
Amazon Price:
Customer Review: I bought this pump in 1994 to get rid of condensate from a new Carrier Infinity ultra-high efficiency (96%) furnace and the whole house A/C installed with the furnace. I must admit, I probably have only cleaned this unit twice in all those years and it still pumps with unbelieveable reliability. Our situation is fairly demanding, it pumps up 7 feet and across the basement ceiling for 45 feet to drain in a laundry tub. I'm using 1/2" PVC tubing and it has always worked flawlessly. How can you go ...
Garmin AC/DC to Vehicle Power Adapter
Amazon Price: $17.50
Customer Review: I tried buying a cheaper (non-Garmin) wall plug-in cigarette lighter adapter and my nuvi 880 would constantly cycle on and off, with the voice saying things like "Battery power low." -- really annoying. When I saw this item made by Garmin, I bought it. I am really glad that I did. When plugged into this adapter my nuvi charges great, on or off, without any annoying cycling or voice messages. For folks with the MSN Live feature on the GPS, the only way the unit will stay current with the info...

U.S. Patrol JB5472 Photo Patrol Security Camera
Amazon Price: $35.47
Customer Review: I plugged it into a USB port and it worked fine.
I inserted new batteries and the unit started to smoke and a burning plastic smell came from the unit.
I'm returning it for a replacement because it would be a good product if it worked.

Step by step instructions, so even if you know nothing about creating a resume, it will guide you through the process from start to finish.
HGTV Instant Makeover
Amazon Price: $28.78
Customer Review: The software is fun and easy to use. Simply take a picture of the
area you want to change. It helps to have as little clutter in the
photo as possible. You also need a steady hand while outlining your
various layers and foreground. The erase feature does work very well
when you "color outside the lines"! The time to import the original
picture took a bit longer than I expected but it wasn't so long that I
gave up. Changing to different products is really...
Rayovac SE3DLN Sportsman Extreme 300-Lumen 3D-Battery LED Lantern
Amazon Price: $25.00
Customer Review: Was very surprised with the size when I first saw it. I expected much bigger size for 300 lumens.
Actually gasped at how bright it was when I first got it on.
Very very bright and looks well built. Worth the money!

Customer Review: Margaret Richard is her usual calm and inspiring self in this 60-minute sculpting workout that hits every part of the body -- abs, glutes, inner & outer thighs, and biceps & triceps. Although there is no real chest work, you can always do a few push-ups to get that in as well! :-)
