Gadgets

We’ve all been there, throwing out food because we let it sit too long in the fridge and never got around to eating it. People use Tupperware to help food last longer but the problem is forgetting about it. This is where Smarterware can be very useful. This smart food storage system makes sure you don’t forget about the food in the fridge! How cool is that?

I’m certain most of us at one point have been in a sticky situation when we got chewing gum stuck to the bottom of our shoes. And I definitely remember my childhood years when I’d fall asleep with gum and wake up with it stuck in my hair! Many cities and towns across the world have a major, sticky gum problem. In Netherlands alone, 1.5 million kilograms (over 3.3 million pounds) of gum end up on pavements. In Amsterdam, gum litter is the second most common form of litter after cigarettes. 

I love slushies and they are the perfect drink for the hot summer months. If you’re feeling lazy and can’t be bothered with going to the local convenience store, then you should definitely check out the Slushy Maker. And no, you will not need to purchase another bulky appliance to make a delicious slushy.

I usually don’t like to step into new territories when it comes to gadgets because modern day gadgets are just fads and quality is not the same as it used to be. Charging your phone wirelessly  has been around for a while now but I didn’t realize there were power banks on the market that could charge phones wirelessly!

Opening and closing a standard patio door is no big deal but when you have a very busy household and it seems like your hands are never free, opening a patio door can be a challenge. If you want to save a few seconds by not having to put things down then the Smart Slider is what you need in your busy life. The Smart Slider is an excellent hands-free option that is super easy to install on your patio door and super easy to use.

Summer hasn’t officially started yet but the weather is warming up and I’m dreaming of sexy cold drinks all the time. In the hot months, whether it’s coffee, tea, wine, juice, cocktails, soda, or spirits cold; as long as it’s ice cold. The HyperChiller is the perfect gadget to get you that cold drink. The best part is that there will be zero dilution in the process so your drink will taste the way it’s supposed to taste. 

I was just telling my wife a few days ago that I would like to find a stroller in which I can also travel. But to be honest, I was actually thinking more along the lines of a platform in which I can stand on and push the stroller along much like a skateboard. But I imagine my weight on the back of the stroller might mean that the stroller is doing a wheelie the entire time I’m on it. I’m sure it’s possible but here is another one that seems to fit the bill. The WIKE Salamander Stroller & Bike looks pretty legit although on the pricey side.

I recently came back from a 3 day trip to an off-grid cabin that we visit annually. It’s a basic cabin with no electricity but there is a propane tank that powers the fridge/freezer, 2 lights in living room, and a stove. Otherwise, there is no lighting outside and flashlights and lanterns become our best friends when the sun sets. These trips are supposed to be simple yet we always somehow pack too much stuff whether it’s too much food or too much gear. It’s nice to be prepared but I seem to overdo it. The Crush Light Solar Powered Lantern by Goal Zero is the perfect replacement for my current lantern.
