Household

From desktop to laptop, and from desk to LapDesk. The Slate supports both our need for mobility and our desire to just stay at home and make a butt dent in the couch with its go-anywhere functionality and sit-anywhere...

Baby it's cold outside. As a matter of fact, it's kind of cold inside too. Drafty in between these el cheapo paper walls of my office. Of course, while this fine looking furniture-grade cabinet housing an infrared space...

How many times would you have performed your own throat endoscopy if only you'd had a smartphone-compatible snake tube camera system? I'm guessing close to a thousand. But if not, maybe there have been other times a 10-meter...

Now this is the kind of Yule Log I'm talking about. How better to bring good tidings to you and all of your kin than with a nice bottle of Jameson or Jack chug-a-lugging out the tap on an urban harvested Ohio hardwood...

I don't care how they got this ship in the bottle as long as I know how to get the booze it's sailing through out. A wood base handcrafted in Kentucky serves as a classy pedestal to the mounted glass whiskey decanter...

Leonardo da Vinci didn't invent the catapult but, as with anything that crazy Medieval MF touched, he did figure out how to make it way better. And I think if high-rise office buildings, contemporary desktops, and floors...

Yeah, old school cork screws are a bi*ch. Instant carpal tunnel, not to mention shredded or incompletely dislodged corks. But there are a lot of steps in between the traditional handheld cranker and this, an electric...

Another boomerang gift! I'll give my girlfriend, She-Ra: Princess of Power, Lodge's Cast Iron Reversible Grill / Griddle for Christmas, and she'll give me all the steaks, burgers, strips of bacon, pancakes, and grilled...

Ahhh, the pleasing fragrance and relaxing mist of essential oils aromatherapied into the air through a mood-lit ultrasonic diffuser. Another gift for the ladies, right? Not that you'll mind too much when she flicks on...

Pizza stones are so heavy. And preheating the oven takes so long. And not burning myself when I try to Operation out my piping hot pie a little too zealously is nearly impossible. Sure, I don't really need a whole separate...

How can garlic smell so good sizzling in a hot skillet, but soooo bad on my breath and hands? It's an age-old question, I know. I also know these types of stainless steel kitchen odor removers have been around for a while...

Wine thieves rejoice! No longer must you risk getting caught stealing the whole bottle. Just insert the Coravin 1000 Wine System into any fine old red or white with a natural cork and siphon out the goods of a good year...

Dremel knows that bigger isn't always better, and sometimes all you need is the tip. Their Versa Tip butane soldering torch kit is a portable tool for makers, craftsmen, and handymen that comes stocked with accessories...

No, I am not showing you the AquaDance Drencher 3-setting 8" curved rainfall showerhead with waterfall mode just because it looks like a vagina...

The people want burritos! It's no surprise Hamilton Beach has followed up its wildly popular Breakfast Sandwich Maker with a Breakfast Burrito Maker because, well, the people want burritos! Since 1975, according to Wikipedia...

Sure, maybe the cookie dough you've haphazardly slopped on the sheet will taste good. Maybe you can get by with the batter that was a little too runny, or the pinball-sized dollops that grew into baseballs as you scooped...

They say this Charlie Brown Christmas Tree is a nice reminder that the holidays are all about love, but I say it's an even nicer way to eliminate the time, hassle, and mess it takes to buy and put up a real tree. What...

Thirty-year-old nixie tubes and 22 hours of handiwork go into these retro clocks from Nuvitron. The artisans who make them place authentic, Cold-War-era nixie tubes hauled back from a dusty basement in the former Soviet...

Rudolph the white-nosed reindeer / Had a very waxen face / And the next time you see it / I'll have melted it away. All of the other reindeer / Will tremble inside their own skin / As I set a match to Rudolph / And burn...

Become a martial artist and show that notebook who's boss, or just make a stocking very happily stuffed this Christmas with a pair of Nunchuck Pens. Two barrels filled with jet black ink are capped with medium-tip ballpoints...

Kebabs, bacon, steaks, sandwiches. Yep, T-fal pretty much has the cooking of all my major food groups covered with its OptiGrill. The electric grill is even compact enough that I bet I can do all my food prep right from...

Max Gunawan designed Lumio to represent his appreciation for minimalist design and, as an architect, his motivation to optimize the use of small spaces. I bet he's enjoyed a few illuminating books in his life too. Lumio...

It was a Dark 'N' Stormy night...no, who am I kidding? It was a straight shot of rum night just like all the others. But I still brought the storm to my glass with this tornado ice mold and its perfectly fitted tumbler...

It's Edward Scissorhands 2.0. I wonder if bolo can craft topiaries as well as it minces garlic, slices carrots, and dices onions. This kitchen knife with a curved blade and "O" handle rolls through rather than chops down...
