Organic Medium Roast Coffee
⭐⭐⭐⭐
“This is a Bay Area as Bay Area gets. Well, unless you’re a company that makes $500 smoothie machines powered by overpriced squeezable packets.So here’s the deal: In a city where microdosing is the new hotness, it makes sense that people would start drinking shroom laced Folgers in convenient individual serving packets.” Read More – Paul Wagner

The only thing I didn’t really like was the fact that I can really roll up my sleeves since they are a little tight.” Read More – Jan M.
All-Purpse Moldable Glue/Adhesive
⭐⭐⭐⭐
“The GOOD: multiple colors, malleable, turns into a “hard rubber” on curing (not a plastic, still slightly soft, like a basketball), gives you the chance to fix things in the “plastic” world with more than just glue and hope.The BAD: once you open a packet, it’s use it or lose it.” Read More – Malcolm

Back Shaver for Men (DIY)
⭐⭐⭐⭐
“This is absolutely game changing. I have tried different methods of shaving my body hair for years, with varying degrees of success and usually a ton of head ache.

Hydrometer Test Kit for Beer, Wine, or Any Alcohol Beverage
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“This product is great . It’s easy to use, comes with varying carry cases for extra security.

Be careful that the hydrometer doesn’t just fall to the ground.” Read More – Chris
Adjustable Garage Parking Aid
⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I have been using this system for a little over a year and was quickly frustrated over how quickly the battery discharged under “normal” use.

Long Range Smart Wireless Meat Thermometer
⭐⭐⭐⭐

Manual Coffee Grinder
⭐⭐⭐⭐
“About 4 months ago, my wife bought us an espresso maker for our anniversary. After seeing prices upwards of $100 for every electric burr grinder out there, we decided to go with this little guy instead. Now, after having two of these grinders and making espressos every day (no that is not a joke, and yes, we like our coffee), there are four big takeaways:0) First off, this thing grinds quite well, which it should since that’s is sole job (but see #2).” Read More – Haon the great Top Contributor: Chess
