The egg cracker thing is probably for people with dexterity problem, someone may have the force to crack an egg but not the fine motor skills to hold it
This is exactly what I thought. A lot of gadgets most people find silly would/could be helpful for people with difficulties.

I think the egg cracker falls under the same category as so many “stupid”/“unnecessary” ASOT items- it was likely invented to help the elderly and disabled then made cheaply and marketed as widely as possible to allow it to get to its intended audience.
Blu Pyxi, idk emojis don’t really have an “exact” meaning, they can be used for multiple things. I think this person’s point was quite clear so your comment is a bit gratuitious haha.
The egg cracker (and lot's of products like the) are actually designed to help people with disabilities. But products like that cannot make their money in specialty catalogs so they have to be sold in general marketing. So in this case the point of the egg cracker is that when you tap the egg you won't drop it, and if you do drop it you probably can still use the egg. For fit people it is worthless. But for an old person with weak or shaky hands, or people with palsy or weak grip, these sorts of products are life changers. Whenever you review grippers and grabbers and helpers you should imagine not just yourself but also an eighty year old person using them. It'd be neat if yo included those views in your reviews. (I just found your channel, but I think could do with the extra perspective.)
BitOBear Legit point.👍 my mom is old, and shaky, and all the things that go with being 80. They still want to have some quality of life and be able to do things.

It would be better to see more aid product reviews from the disability community on TH-cam where they can say how well the product actually works for their needs :)

Indeed. If you need precise slices, just measure and make little tick marks around the outside on the tray/plate/etc. (maybe with a dry erase marker to hide for presentation).
I have one that does almost exactly the same job, and it is a small, thin triangular steel thing. Doesn’t take much space at all and cuts perfect slices...
The most effective stain remover I've found is Dawn dish detergent. It makes blood, grass, dirt, juice, oil, paint, and formula stains all but disappear.
By "all but" I mean that once in awhile, you need to run twice. And with some stains (like urine, and skidmarks) it's wise to add some vinegar. FYI Dawn and vinegar, mixed equally, and heated in the microwave, will completely clean your bath/shower. You can find how to videos on TH-cam here. And with a different mix, and using apples cider vinegar, you can make a flea dip that's far more effective than the more expensive brand shampoos.
Thank you. That satisfied my curiosity about a couple of things. I'm glad I didn't buy them. I've been disappointed with products I've bought, but since I've been watching your channel you saved a lot of money for me. Hope we find good stuff in '20.

That reminds me of when I was in 5th grade and our project was to make an invention. My friend and I made rollerskates with flashlights pointed at the ground in front. When we presented I asked "Have you ever had trouble seeing the when you rollerskate at night?" and half the class just unanimously said "No." Never in my life have I felt so defeated.
Oh my sides hurt! That was hilarious, especially the tater mitts! That stupid dog onesy tho! Poor Bailey, that was sooooo humiliating! Well, that's show-biz, Bailey!

Rule of thumb: Don't buy anything from "As seen on TV". There is a reason they're promoted on As seen on TV, and not already on the shelves. Same thing for Shark Tank products.
I use a Shark Tank product called Scrub Daddy pretty much on a daily basis. If you've never used it before, I highly recommend you try it. Best sponge you'll ever use. It's great for cleaning off stuck-on food particles on non-stick pans without scratching the surface.

@@Drinking_and_Golfing Rest assured I was not paid to say that. I work for the federal government, not some marketing firm. But I agree, Scrub Daddy won't last long if it is used heavily.

Yeah, the "shed defender" looks awful! We put one of my Dad's old t shirts on our big, long haired dog when we went on road trips to keep the shedding down and it worked really well. It didn't bother her either.
I use the pure wool dryer balls and they work amazing. I think I paid about 6 bucks for 3 of the on Amazon. Have had them over a year and they are still going strong!
#6 - I was distracted and didn't hear that it was a "personal thermostat". I thought that it was a wrist support for people who use their computer and its keyboard a lot (typists, gamers,...). I think the idea is that it heats or cools your blood by doing the same to your wrist, since blood vessels are very superficial there and the appliance is not very intrusive, and your heated/cooled blood will then do the same to your body thanks to circulation, but I don't think such a small appliance is powerful enough for it to do so (assuming the above is a possible function).
(Shed Defender) "... at the expense of making your dog miserable". Point taken, Sir. Say no more. I LIVE to make sure my dogs are happy. Thank you for the great reviews.
I thought I recognized the beach in the background, I live up north at the moment, but I lived in pinellas county for 28 years and currently have 2 daughters that live in largo. I appreciate your video's. Thank you..
Ember wave was a nice try. As an athlete for years I was always told be old time trainers to cool down hold your wrist under running cold water for about 5-10 minutes. It does work but the gadget was a poor imitation
Aww that poor dog looked exactly how I felt looking in the fitting room mirror at Primark after Christmas and realising I was lo longer a size large in shirts!
I wonder if those laundry ball things would make any difference if they were thrown into a load of laundry with detergent compared to a load with just detergent.
seaners24 i throw them in for something extra to beat the dirt out of the clothes as they swish around. Just rock bangers. I use soap, and baking soda and borax!
You should review the Hamilton Beach Personal Mini Blender. I was skeptical when I got it, but for the $17 price tag, it works surprisingly well. Use it almost daily for smoothies or frozen cappuccinos. Blends ingredients really well, including ice. I have found out that it's better to add your ice after your liquid ingredients have been added. It's not overly loud. Very good product overall.
That egg cracker may actually be handy for my mum. One of the legacies of cancer for her is calcium buildup which basically makes her fingers become useless, so it impacts her dexterity. She can probably crack an egg fine, but there probably what they're for.
I like the pen, the screw driver I used & it fitted the fiddly small screw hole for alarm clock batteries. I don't have many tools so having a little screw driver for more than one size did save me time & I have either used or tried out the other features on it- I got a 2nd, I think it was cheaper than your amount but looks identical.
Aww how sad the dog got after having that on her really got me. Hyper and ready to play, then suddenly not hyper, no longer excited or having fun. Tail droopy. Very disappointed and defeated dog. You can tell immediately that it broke his heart too to see his dog like that.
How someone treats a dog is widley known as a way of analyzing someone's character. That being said, you have great character and you just keep on loving those damn dogs brother.
I know from experience that dogs with anxiety like having a tight fitting suite like this. It's certainly not for most dogs, but for ones that suffer from former abuse or chronic anxiety, things like this definitely help if the dog likes it.
@@moses9922 The billions of people in the world and you're close to someone else's height? NO WAY! How weird would it be if you're close to someone's age as well, bet your mind would be blown!
I received a version of one of those 7 in 1 pens as some free merch from a Toyota auto show. it had the 3 inch ruler, a more "sturdy" but still light duty screwdriver, and a bubble level. The first thing to fail on it was the pen mechanism. No matter how much I turned it, no dice. Always be wary of non-conventional multitools. If you want a true multi-tool, get yourself a medium sized pair of channellocks and a socket wrench with a multi-function head (7-19mm seems most common). These 2 tools can solve 90% of your problems. Use a screwdriver for the rest. Anything else will require a work permit and a trip to the tool room.
I'm pretty sure the "radical racers" RC car is a bootleg of the anki rc cars, (I think they're called anki overdrive) which came out first, and can also climb walls.
The gel wrap....does it stay cool and does it keep there area where the tendon from the thumb goes nice and cold? I have De Quervain's syndrome. It horrendous. Nothing stays cool long enough. The other thing, the expensive one, doesn't look all that helpful, but that brace looks like it might be worth a try.
Apparently, the Nano tape's real usage is to prevent skids on a plastic mounting bar (the kind that you can extend between 2 walls to hang stuff). The original invention was from Japan which stated that and it was for earthquake preparation...and it used to be a square pad.
That doggie onesie is hysterical. I have a chihuahua we used to dress her in little dresses and stuff and she had that same humiliated look on her face as your dog did. We had to take the clothes off as well. No More clothes for her.
I actually like my shed defender sort of. My dog doesn't generally mind wearing clothes like wearing coats in the winter. He's free to shed otherwise. I ended up using the shed defender when I need to take an Uber or Lyft with him with me. He is a double coated beagle so, the shedding gets real even with regular brushing. Plus he's anxious. I am a semi truck driver who lives on their truck. So, I don't own a vehicle or house. Sometimes we go to hotels when the truck is in a shop or he needs to go to an appointment. He doesn't like it but, it's temporary. I don't know who would get this for actual home use. It definitely isn't designed well though.
Bought some Nano tape and used it to hang a Christmas sign. I had to pour water down the wall to get it to release and then it took the paint off. Seems it either holds too tightly or not enough🤔
I live in a very small space, so I got a portable washer and the lint catchers are very good for that situation. There's no real lint catcher in the little washer, so those really help. But, I can see where you wouldn't be very impressed using them in a regular washer and dryer :)
Nearly bought those shoes. Glad I didn't. I agree, that egg cracker lol that's just stupid. And if you want to peel raw potatoes without using anything sharp, buy a toilet brush, a bucket, a hand drill and a garden hose. Secure the toilet brush to the drill, pour 5 lbs of raw potatoes into the bucket, turn on the hose and then the drill and put the water from the hose and then spinning brush into your bucket of potatoes. Should be completely peeled after about a minute or maybe two. Vids of this method have been all over YT for at least 10 years.
If you need to measure something on the fly, a $1 USD bill is six inches long. Fold it in half to get three inches, in thirds for two inches, in thirds then in half for one inch. Rough measurements sure, but way cheaper and handier than a multi-tool pen. ;)

Thanks for your worst products in review 2019!! James you rock!!
Yeah, the "shed defender" looks awful! We put one of my Dad's old t shirts on our big, long haired dog when we went on road trips to keep the shedding down and it worked really well. It didn't bother her either.
The "Shed Defender" looks like the sweater Minnie knitted for Pluto!
Nano tape is Cr*p! I tried it, and threw it away. All it was good for sticking to itself!
Yup! It's REALLY good at sticking to itself.
I use the pure wool dryer balls and they work amazing. I think I paid about 6 bucks for 3 of the on Amazon. Have had them over a year and they are still going strong!
#6 - I was distracted and didn't hear that it was a "personal thermostat". I thought that it was a wrist support for people who use their computer and its keyboard a lot (typists, gamers,...). I think the idea is that it heats or cools your blood by doing the same to your wrist, since blood vessels are very superficial there and the appliance is not very intrusive, and your heated/cooled blood will then do the same to your body thanks to circulation, but I don't think such a small appliance is powerful enough for it to do so (assuming the above is a possible function).
Why the low view count? I look forward to this list every year!
The lint catchers actually work on the small portable washers. Like the ones people without washer hookups use.
Doggo was totally a good sport in the production of this dodgey product video. 😃 Good job Daisy 🐶🐶🐶
(Shed Defender) "... at the expense of making your dog miserable". Point taken, Sir. Say no more. I LIVE to make sure my dogs are happy. Thank you for the great reviews.
I thought I recognized the beach in the background, I live up north at the moment, but I lived in pinellas county for 28 years and currently have 2 daughters that live in largo. I appreciate your video's. Thank you..
Ember wave was a nice try. As an athlete for years I was always told be old time trainers to cool down hold your wrist under running cold water for about 5-10 minutes. It does work but the gadget was a poor imitation
I know from having goldens myself that they hate the heat so those onesies or any other dog clothes aren't gonna fly
Aww that poor dog looked exactly how I felt looking in the fitting room mirror at Primark after Christmas and realising I was lo longer a size large in shirts!
I wonder if those laundry ball things would make any difference if they were thrown into a load of laundry with detergent compared to a load with just detergent.
seaners24 me too
seaners24 i throw them in for something extra to beat the dirt out of the clothes as they swish around. Just rock bangers. I use soap, and baking soda and borax!
You should review the Hamilton Beach Personal Mini Blender. I was skeptical when I got it, but for the $17 price tag, it works surprisingly well. Use it almost daily for smoothies or frozen cappuccinos. Blends ingredients really well, including ice. I have found out that it's better to add your ice after your liquid ingredients have been added. It's not overly loud. Very good product overall.

That egg cracker may actually be handy for my mum. One of the legacies of cancer for her is calcium buildup which basically makes her fingers become useless, so it impacts her dexterity. She can probably crack an egg fine, but there probably what they're for.
The shed defender segment made me sad 😭
Me too......why put an animal through that. They have to 'feel' themselves.
If you do mind shedding, don't own an animal that sheds.
It looked WAY too small! It should zip on or button on down the back. Trying to squeeze a dog into this is miserable (for the dog).
Looked more like a wet suit.
I would think it risks overheating too.
Hilarious!!! I’m glad he’d rather have hair in his house!!
😂😂😂the shed defender on your dog was the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. Made my day!
Loved that you didn’t get the trouble of suiting up like in the Best of 19 one hahah
you are by-far the best reviewer on youtube! happy thanksgiving!
"Tater Mitts" not only a waste of money but of a more precious resource; clean, fresh water.
I haven't peeled a potato in years. It's just a waste of time. There's nothing wrong with just eating the skins.
I like the pen, the screw driver I used & it fitted the fiddly small screw hole for alarm clock batteries. I don't have many tools so having a little screw driver for more than one size did save me time & I have either used or tried out the other features on it- I got a 2nd, I think it was cheaper than your amount but looks identical.
Your trainer could be a JOJO lol. Now on serious things very nice video as usual!
I don't expect a JoJo reference here, from all places.
But yes he sure looks like Jonathan or Joseph
They thankfully improved the BlendJet. I had the same issues with the first one that have been mostly resolved with BlendJet 2
First time seeing one of your videos and I must say you're very easy to watch. I'm glad I stumbled upon you.
16:32... Does that gadget (mostly) keep the egg-shell from going allover your counter and / or floor? If so, then it helps (at least a little)
14:40: That's why you should never wear steel toes when working with metal. It's just a toe Guillotine. Go with ceramic or composite toe!
I always enjoy your reviews and trust your opinion. You are very thorough when testing products.
I just saw the commercial with the radical racers and the whole time I heard your video in my head!
I am so glad I found that video, because I was excited about some products, which actually are not worth it. Thanks for your reviews !!!
Who else checks out this channel before purchasing any As Seen On TV products???
Aww how sad the dog got after having that on her really got me. Hyper and ready to play, then suddenly not hyper, no longer excited or having fun. Tail droopy. Very disappointed and defeated dog. You can tell immediately that it broke his heart too to see his dog like that.
Lint catchers seem like they would be good for clothes you don’t dry
I understand the egg tapper. It’s for people, like me, who have a phobia with cracking eggs.
How someone treats a dog is widley known as a way of analyzing someone's character. That being said, you have great character and you just keep on loving those damn dogs brother.
I know from experience that dogs with anxiety like having a tight fitting suite like this. It's certainly not for most dogs, but for ones that suffer from former abuse or chronic anxiety, things like this definitely help if the dog likes it.
Your trainer looks like a giant
And to think.. he's only 5' 7" tall.

I received a version of one of those 7 in 1 pens as some free merch from a Toyota auto show. it had the 3 inch ruler, a more "sturdy" but still light duty screwdriver, and a bubble level. The first thing to fail on it was the pen mechanism. No matter how much I turned it, no dice. Always be wary of non-conventional multitools. If you want a true multi-tool, get yourself a medium sized pair of channellocks and a socket wrench with a multi-function head (7-19mm seems most common). These 2 tools can solve 90% of your problems. Use a screwdriver for the rest. Anything else will require a work permit and a trip to the tool room.
I'm pretty sure the "radical racers" RC car is a bootleg of the anki rc cars, (I think they're called anki overdrive) which came out first, and can also climb walls.
On the cake slicer....did you wipe the edges of the slicer between cuts? As with a chefs knife you should always wipe between every cut.....
If anything the tatermitts look like they'd be really good back scratchers!
The gel wrap....does it stay cool and does it keep there area where the tendon from the thumb goes nice and cold? I have De Quervain's syndrome. It horrendous. Nothing stays cool long enough. The other thing, the expensive one, doesn't look all that helpful, but that brace looks like it might be worth a try.
The best reviews on TH-cam
So awesome to see real honest reviews.
Apparently, the Nano tape's real usage is to prevent skids on a plastic mounting bar (the kind that you can extend between 2 walls to hang stuff). The original invention was from Japan which stated that and it was for earthquake preparation...and it used to be a square pad.
I loved your videos. FYI, If you ever do a wash test again, try one of the washes with cold water. Hot or warm water will "set" a stain.
That doggie onesie is hysterical. I have a chihuahua we used to dress her in little dresses and stuff and she had that same humiliated look on her face as your dog did. We had to take the clothes off as well. No More clothes for her.
Just found you. Love your reviews on the good, the bad, and the ugly. Thanks.
You're trainer is massive lol good on him
I bought the Nano Tape and find it works amazing. I use it to hold my area rugs in place.
I actually like my shed defender sort of. My dog doesn't generally mind wearing clothes like wearing coats in the winter. He's free to shed otherwise. I ended up using the shed defender when I need to take an Uber or Lyft with him with me. He is a double coated beagle so, the shedding gets real even with regular brushing. Plus he's anxious. I am a semi truck driver who lives on their truck. So, I don't own a vehicle or house. Sometimes we go to hotels when the truck is in a shop or he needs to go to an appointment. He doesn't like it but, it's temporary. I don't know who would get this for actual home use. It definitely isn't designed well though.
Bought some Nano tape and used it to hang a Christmas sign. I had to pour water down the wall to get it to release and then it took the paint off. Seems it either holds too tightly or not enough🤔
Thank you, I was going to buy some of that sticky tape.....now I won’t thanks to you! I am subscribing to your channel!
I know right? I've seen it at the store and thought "oh that looks useful". I'm so glad I didn't have the money to buy it.
I live in a very small space, so I got a portable washer and the lint catchers are very good for that situation. There's no real lint catcher in the little washer, so those really help. But, I can see where you wouldn't be very impressed using them in a regular washer and dryer :)
Who's your trainer? Asking for myself 👀
Nearly bought those shoes. Glad I didn't. I agree, that egg cracker lol that's just stupid. And if you want to peel raw potatoes without using anything sharp, buy a toilet brush, a bucket, a hand drill and a garden hose. Secure the toilet brush to the drill, pour 5 lbs of raw potatoes into the bucket, turn on the hose and then the drill and put the water from the hose and then spinning brush into your bucket of potatoes. Should be completely peeled after about a minute or maybe two. Vids of this method have been all over YT for at least 10 years.
