While it worked okay in my test, I found the Magna Hose hard to roll up, and awkward to attach to a wall.With MicroTouch Titanium, you can cut your hair at home. Its claim to fame is that even though the hose is flat, it can be used on the reel without unrolling it all the way. The Magna Hose is a flat hose that can be unrolled from the plastic reel to use for watering your yard.

Once the bag is full, you simply slip the sleeve over the top of the bag without having to lift the heavy bag. The Bag-Caddy is a flexible plastic sleeve that is used to hold a plastic trash bag open for filling. While the Gutter Rake did okay in my test, there are other products on the market that work as well or better. Gutter RakeĬost: $9.95 + $6.95 S&H = $16.90 total (without handle)īilled as faster and easier than other gutter cleaning tools, the Gutter Rake attaches to a standard extension pole (not included), and is used to rake leaves and other debris toward you, which are then removed by hand. In Allen’s tests of the Turbo Snake, it worked as advertised, though it’s a bit pricy for what you get. To use, uncoil the Turbo Snake, insert it into the drain, twist several times to collect the hair, and pull it back out. The Turbo Snake consists of a plastic coated wire with small hooks on the end that are used to remove hair from a clogged or slow-running drain. The Grabit isn’t cheap, but it worked just as advertised in my test, earning it a permanent spot in my toolbox. Nothing is more aggravating that trying to remove a screw that has a stripped head! The Grabit solves that problem with a bit on one end to drill a hole in the head, and a screw extractor on the other to back the screw out of the hole. Other than being able to dispense soap, the EZ Jet provided about the same pressure as a standard hose nozzle but at four times the price. Ads claim the EZ Jet cleans with the power of a pressure washer but in my test, it fell far short. It has eight different nozzle settings and a soap reservoir. The EZ Jet Water Cannon attaches to your hose for outside cleaning. Use: Attaches to a hose for outside cleaning.

I used it clean the soap scum off a grungy glass shower door. To use, simply fill it with water, turn it on, and give it a minute or so to heat up. The Shark Portable Steam Pocket comes with various accessories for different cleaning situations.
