FeiyuTech SPG PLUS 3-Axis Gimbal: Steady As She Goes

Restaurant Quality Meals Made at Home with the Gourmia Sous Vide

Gourmia sent us over their popular Sous Vide Pod Immersion Circulator Precision Cooker to try out. How can this method of cooking change how you prepare your meals in the kitchen? Chances are you’ve heard of the term Sous Vide before. If not, it’s a slow cook method where you put food in a vacuum sealed pouch into a temperature controlled water bath for longer than normal cooking times.

Loopy Cases for iPhone 7 Plus Review

Plantronics BackBeat FIT Second Look: Still Impressive

At CES 2016, Judie and I had a chance to check out the Plantronics BackBeat FIT. We were impressed and said so in our review last February. (Read the review.) Fast forward a year, and the BackBeat FIT is still going strong. A few things have changed, so we thought we would take a second look.


Scosche BoomBuoy Rockstar Pocket-Sized Speaker Floats Like a Butterfly

The Scosche BoomBouy Rockstar Pocket-Sized Speaker is a small speaker that clips to a backpack and goes wherever you go. In fact, “goes wherever you go” even includes a pool, river or lake if that is where your travels take you.
