Ultra Fast Defrosting Tray

Sold Out Amazon »

I want a big hunk of meat, and I want it now. What? Frozen?! Thaw overnight in the fridge? Thaw in a bowl of water for a few hours? Thaw in the microwave and let it get all...microwaved? How about, instead of any of that...

Bartesian Capsule Cocktail Machine

Skybar Wine Chill Drops

I'm not that into wine, but my girlfriend, She-Ra: Princess of Power, is. And since these Wine Chill Drops look kind of like tobacco pipes, I think I could use them to regale her with my Albert Einstein and Frosty the...

FreezerBoy - Game Boy Refrigerator Magnets

Here's a slightly more economical approach to "skinning" your fridge in LEGO bricks or a lady licking the shaft of a banana. It's simpler to install and, I think many would argue, just as inspiring too. FreezerBoy is...

Rabbit Chrome Chilling Stones

GearWrench Gimbal Ratchet

Discontinued

GearWrench is all about ratcheting innovation. And given the company's success since the release of its original 5-degree ratcheting wrench in 1996, I think we have just proven that in today's world, being "all about"...

Book & Hero Bookend

$22.70 Amazon »

I wish this super dude was here to save me from having to read the books, but it looks like his job is just to keep them from falling over. Equally heroic, I guess. I don't need another 10-pound tome whacking me in the...

EZSTAX Interlocking Dividers Organizer

$42.99 Amazon »

Seems like it's always easier to make a mess than it is to clean it up. And while there are plenty of items out there to prevent the former - bibs, sippy cups, condoms - and help with the latter - vacuums, washing machines...

WohnGeist Tool Set

Portable Air Conditioner with Remote Control

Sold Out Amazon »

It's so hot right now I'd be more than happy to drag Honeywell's portable AC unit around like an oxygen tank. The 10,000 BTU air conditioner has the capacity to cool 350 to 400 square feet of space, just about the size...

Gel'O Cool Pillow Mat

I like sleeping under the covers. Always. No matter the conditions I need at least a sheet serving as a barrier between the Sandman and my bare ass. The problem with this is that I always wake up with wet hair and a sweat-soaked...

Stinger Indoor Insect Trap
