ALLSWIFIT ActiveSolid Slip-In Athletic Shoes Review: Slip-In Comfort for Wide Feet Without the Premium Price

Let’s get this out there right now – I hate tying shoes. I’m a huge fan of slip-ons, but when I want athletic shoes, I’ve been out of luck. When Kiziks first came out, with their slip-on tech, I was excited. But I am blessed with both thick and wide feet, and Kiziks don’t play there. There are some high-priced options out there, but I’m frugal.  I got an offer to test out a pair of ALLSWIFIT ActiveSolid Athletic Shoes, and they are slip-ins available in wide. Yes, please!

Wuben E2 Pulse Flashlight Review: A Tiny EDC Flashlight for Your Keychain

The Wuben E2 Pulse flashlight is one of those little gadgets that makes you smile when you first pick it up because it’s so tiny. But this is not merely a cute keychain accessory. It is a rechargeable everyday-carry flashlight with a front beam, side lighting, red-and-blue emergency-style flashing, a magnetic tail, and a quick-release chain attachment.


K-Swiss Women’s Wild Run Trail Running Shoes Review

The K-Swiss Women’s Wild Run Trail Running Shoes are designed for people who want a comfortable, capable shoe for getting outside without necessarily needing something built for technical mountain trails. Whether you are walking through a park, taking a dirt path, walking on a gravel driveway, or navigating uneven grass, roots, mud, and rocks, these shoes offer the traction and cushioning needed for everyday outdoor adventures. I tested the women’s size 10, which is my usual size, and found them comfortable right from the start. They are lightweight, stable, and nicely suited for casual trail walking and light trail running.


Husqvarna Automower 420 iQ Review: The Safe Bet in Robotic Mowing

Husqvarna has been building robotic mowers since 1995, which makes it the closest thing this category has to an incumbent. The Husqvarna Automower 420 iQ sits in the middle of the current lineup: $3,299, wire-free thanks to EPOS satellite navigation, and rated for about an acre. It’s also the mower that replaced my own Automower 450X after ten years of service. I’ve spent the season running it alongside several competing robots, which turned out to be the most useful way to figure out what the Husqvarna badge is actually worth in 2026.


BALOLO Setup Cockpit Review: A Pricey but Brilliant Desk Upgrade That Tames Tech Clutter

Between a widescreen monitor, MacBook, iPad, Stream Deck, phone charger, pens, journals, cables, and assorted little trinkets and gadgets, my desk was functional but definitely not tidy.

TORRAS COOLiFY Cyber Fold AI Neck Air Conditioner Review: Your Personal AC for Surviving Summer Heat

Summer heat is no joke, and lately it seems worse than ever, especially with Florida’s humidity making time outdoors downright miserable. My preferred strategy is really simple: stay inside from June through September. When I do venture out, I move from my air-conditioned house to my air-conditioned car and then to another air-conditioned destination. Unfortunately, some situations still require being outside. Wouldn’t it be nice to bring air conditioning with you? With the TORRAS COOLiFY Cyber Fold AI Neck Air Conditioner, you almost can. Better yet, it isn’t only for summer—it can also help keep you warm when temperatures drop.


GardePro X66 Pro Cellular Trail Camera Review: Keep an Eye on Wildlife Where Wi-Fi Doesn’t Reach

I live on 12 wooded acres in southern Indiana and enjoy spotting wildlife such as deer, turkeys, possums, raccoons, coyotes, and even a bobcat, which my American bobtail cat, Ozzy, once chased away. I use several trail cameras, but my property is too spread out for every camera to reach home WiFi. The GardePro X66 Pro cellular trail camera solves that problem: it doesn’t need WiFi, only access to a supported cellular network.


Ninja Crispi DualZone Dual Basket Glass Air Fryer Review: Double the Cooking, without the Coated Baskets

If you have been keeping an eye on countertop kitchen gadgets, Shark|Ninja has been on a run lately. Their latest release, the Ninja Crispi DualZone Countertop Glass Air Fryer, takes the popular dual-zone air fryer concept and swaps out the traditional opaque metal drawers for heavy-duty glass containers. In true Ninja form, the Crispi is full of features and works extremely well.


GKU E200 4K+4K Dash Cam Front and Rear Review: Sharp Video, Smart Voice Controls, and Peace of Mind for Less

The GKU E200 Dash Cam gives you peace of mind for a very reasonable price. After I turn on my truck, the GKU E200 starts up and begins recording within 14 seconds. The 4K resolution is super clear, even through glass. The app is easy to use, and a hardwire kit is available separately for constant monitoring when parked. I hope never to need it, but I’m glad I finally got a dash cam for that extra peace of mind.


EPOMAKER Glyph Keyboard Review: A Mechanical Keyboard with Retro Typewriter Vibes

I’ve reviewed dozens of keyboards over the years, and I continue to look for unique features in new keyboards that make me want to accept offers to review them. Today we’re going to take a look at the EPOMAKER Glyph keyboard. I accepted the offer to review this one mainly because of its looks.

Let’s answer those questions and more.
