Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2, 14 Oz, App-Controlled Heated Coffee Mug with 80 Min Battery Life and Improved Design, Black Before buying the ember mug 2, I didn't even know smart mugs existed, and then I thought it was kind of silly, a frivilous use of money considering the cost. These mugs are expensive! I was even skeptical about having to use an app to operate the mug. I try to keep as many "smart" devices out of my house as possible. But then I started using the Ember mug every morning and it has become a necessity, at least during winter. My "new" house is 130 years old and none of the previous owners added insulation to the attic or exterior walls. They also never installed central heat and air. Until I can get heat installed this winter, we use space heaters. When it's 35 degrees outside, it's 35 degrees inside. But I can sip on my coffee for an hour, even in my cold house, and it stays hot! The ember mug has essentially been a lifesaver for me this winter, which is why I say it's a necessity. And now I can't imagine living without it, except in the summer when it gets really hot here in the south and I'll be making iced coffee. I also bought the recommended lid to help keep the heat in and use less energy. So far, I am loving the Ember mug and having hot coffee to keep me warm during this frigid winter so far!
KitchenAid Classic Series 4.5 Quart Tilt-Head Stand Mixer K45SS, White After getting another mixer with great reviews (non kitchen aid) and returning it, I finally understand why kitchen aid is the best choice for stand up mixers. Solid, works well, and makes awesomeness. I’m glad the other model didn’t work as well as I hoped and I got this one. This will be an excellent addition to my kitchen for years to come. Only one little visual flaw but otherwise perfect.
Hydro Flask All Around Travel Tumbler Trillium 32 Oz I LOVE THIS TUMBLER! I over did it when I bought a 40oz Stanley. It was heavy when filled up and leaked. This is the perfect size for me! I use it home, when I'm in class, or just running errands. The lid is great and has a seal around it, keeping it on and providing insulation. The flexible straw isn't something I thought about but I love it now that I have experienced it. The straw is 2 pieces and it's easy to clean. The tumbler is functional a doesnt leak because of the 2 piece straw.The cup is easy to hold, durable, and fits in the side pocket of my backpack. I bought the pink one to match my lunch box in the same color, they look cute together ❤️

Instant Pot Vortex Plus 6QT Air Fryer, 6-in-1, Quick Meals with 100+ Recipes The Instant Vortex Plus 6-in-1 Air Fryer is an excellent choice for families or individuals who want a versatile, efficient, and stylish appliance. While its size and price may not suit everyone, its range of functions and performance make it a valuable addition to modern kitchens.
We have made a few recipes and so far it's very easy to cook with and clean up. The cooking basket and tray clean easily. It's simple to learn how to use and there are a lot of recipes written up in books and blogs. The basket fits the common recipe sizes. For example, we tried a chicken tenderloin recipe that called for 1 lb of chicken tenderloins (about 8 strips and they fit just fine in the basket). We split up our fries into two batches though because we wanted a lot of fries. This is easily worth the investment and makes it easy to try new recipes that would otherwise be a bit risky for me as a fumbly and clumsy home "chef."

- Learning Curve: Beginners may need time to understand the optimal settings for different foods.
- Higher Price Point: More expensive than basic air fryers, though justified by its features and build quality.
Ecolution Micro-Pop Microwave Popcorn Popper, 3QT BPA-Free Glass with 3-in-1 Lid, Red The Ecolution Micro-Pop Popcorn Popper is an excellent choice for health-conscious individuals and those seeking an eco-friendly, cost-effective snack solution. While its capacity and fragility may pose minor drawbacks, its convenience and sustainable design make it a worthwhile addition to any kitchen.
What a great little popcorn maker. It's quick and easy to use and clean. The catch, is that there is a bit of a learning curve to perfect the process. When first using, be prepared to either scorch the popcorn or have half of them unpopped. After the 3rd or 4th time using, I had the process dialed in and was getting perfect popcorn! Simply add the same amount of kernels each time and then (through trial and error) figure out the perfect timer setting. Easy and worth it!

- Fragile Material: Borosilicate glass is durable but still breakable, requiring careful handling.
- Limited Flavor Options: While healthier, it lacks the convenience of pre-seasoned microwave popcorn bags.
- Butter Melting Lid: Some users report uneven butter melting or difficulty cleaning the lid.
- Microwave Variability: Results may vary depending on microwave power, requiring trial and error to find the perfect settings.
OXO Good Grips 10-Piece POP Container Set, White These containers are fantastic! I’ve had several containers by oxo that I bought from tj maxx but during a sale I finally splurged and bought the large set I’ve had my eye on. You get a large variety of sizes, that make everything functional. They seal really well. I’ve only opened one so far for dog treats and it has kept them very fresh.
