User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Smaller than when bought at CVS, but very pretty
These globes do the job. I use two of them for a large plant. My plants are out in the Florida heat/sun so I fill up the globes daily and they keep my vines flowering beautifully.

5 Stars Very convinient !!
I use this globe for my medium-sized spider plant. I made a hole in the soil with a chopstick so that I could insert the shaft into the soil easily. I was worried that it would over-watered the plant, because the globe was empty just within 3-4 hours. But the second time, the water in the globe lasted for 6 days in a 75-80 degrees room! My plant looks very healthy, the leaves look very shiny. It’s easy to clean too. If there’s soil stuck in the shaft, I just push the dirt in w/ a chopstick, and wash it out w/ water.

3 Stars I like them but…
These are pretty and work well for small plants but you may need multiples if plant is in anything bigger than 6″ pot. Always water plant thoroughly then refill and replace aqua globe. Depending on the plant and time of year -among other factors- water may last 3 or 4 days. I have found that they DO NOT WORK WELL FOR SUCCULENTS. Not sure why; possibly because the plants water requirements are so low that it allows soil in shaft to completely dry before the plant starts to pull water… Don’t really know.

The shaft does get clogged with dirt and you’ll need patience in order to refill the globe. I’ll confess that most of the time it’s patience I don’t have. I usually end up just watering the plant rather than taking the globe out, unclogging it, getting a bunch of dirt in my sink, then having to slowly refill.

Also, the frequent insertion, extraction and reinsertion of the aqua globe may loosen soil and disrupt roots.

In short, most of the time I have pretty, but empty, aqua globes, decorating, but not really watering my plants

5 Stars Great Item. Looks Great!
The globes work just exactly as described. They are beautiful and no two globes are the same since they are hand blown. They look great in any plant. I did not have a problem with them getting clogged. I used a medium sized sharpie marker to make the “pilot hole” and then just stuck the globe in and Voila!

2 Stars Ehhh…
To start, these things are very pretty, the hand blown patterns are very unique from bulb to bulb. However since they’re hand blown not only are each of them different in color patterns but also in the thickness of the stem inside. The pack I had ordered came with one normal sized stem and the other came with a stem that was near impossible to “easily fill” unless I trickled water down into the bulb VERY slowly. I suppose they watered well enough but the amount of water used seems more or less proportionate to the density of your soil so if you have your plants newly potted then they might consume water(or waste, I honestly couldn’t tell) in about a day. I recommend this only as a cheapass alternative to asking a friend to come over to water your plants when you’re away.

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars I’m sold
After watching the infomercial on these hooks I had to try them. They have worked great on all of the pictures I have hung up. They are quick and easy to use, my 13 yr old daughter even hung her own pictures in her room. I haven’t hung anything really heavy and don’t know that I would but for simple picture hanging I’ve been very satisfied!

1 Star Know your walls
If you are going to buy this product make sure that your walls are really thin. Never in the commercial do they tell you that if you have medium-strong walls (even if they sound like they are hollow), the hook wont go in. This buy can be a total loss of money.

5 Stars LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
These are the most amazing things i have ever owned! they work just like they show on the commercial!!! MUST HAVE

1 Star Buy screws…
These things are terrible. I had one go in easily and work fine, but the other 3 I’ve tried I still can’t get to work. The big problem is these hooks need about a 6″ diameter circle behind the wall from wherever you screw them, as they need to twist. They also, of course, don’t go through studs.

Now I have 3 holes in my wall, one of them MUCH larger than a screw hole, and still no hook. I also have several cuts on my hand from trying to push these damn things in. Think of bending sharp clothes hangers, which is exactly all these are.

With screws I would have been done in 2 minutes, now I’ve spent about 20 and have one hook in. Throwing the rest out, going to buy some $0.50 screws instead. Horrible product in every way, expect under rare conditions where they are in the perfect spot to work (which is rarely ever centered).

5 Stars useful in owens corning basement system
I have an Owens Corning basement system, and there are no drywall or studs. To hang shelving, the panels have to be removed and wood studs installed, which the company says costs $125. I bought these Hercules Hooks for $15 and put up the shelves and my stereo speakers and after a month they are still holding up well. I have placed some satellite speakers on the shelving, and I’d estimate the weight at 10-12 lbs. The main speakers are probably in the same range, weight-wise. I’m very happy with the results.

2 Stars NOODLEHEAD SCHMOODLEHEAD
I have some odd-ball places to water on my property so decided to give the Noodlehead Sprinkler a try.

As someone else mentioned it is tiresome changing the noodles for each application. Perhaps it would be fine mounted permanently & dedicated to one particular area. I just don’t use it that way. In fact…I just don’t use it at all.

5 Stars great product
These sprinkler heads are wonderful if you have odd sized beds like I do. I highly recommend them.

3 Stars unique sprinkler
it is just an additional item for your sprinkler arsenal. enjoy it. it brings a tad of creativity to the garden watering process.

5 Stars Wish I had invented it.
Really a great idea. Placed three across the front of the house and directed each noodle to cover every plant. Now we don’t have to stand there with a hose to water the plants. You come back 20 minutes later turn the hose off and you’re done.

4 Stars A good solution for small yards, odd-shaped areas
I have a small yard with several triangular flower beds, and noodleheads have been an excellent solution for me. I pair them with snap-on connectors, and simply move the hose (on a timer) from noodlehead to noodlehead. I haven’t had any trouble with the black wands moving — once I have them in a pattern, they stay here.

The noodleheads last well — much better than the soaker hoses that tend to degrade after two years.

Handy switch is a wireless light switch you can use to control any lamp in your home with a remote control device.

Each Handy Switch comes with a switch and remote receiver you can activate in one simple step. Just plug the receiver into an outlet, and then plug your lamp into the receiver!

Handy Switch works by sending a signal to the receiver, telling it to turn the power on or off, when you flick the switch. Plus, each switch also comes with a special adhesive that lets you stick your Handy Switch to any surface, then remove and re-use it in any location you choose.

Handy Switch only works with lamps or other devices that plug into the wall. The range is approximately 60 feet, and the radio frequency it uses will penetrate walls.

4 Stars Worked – then died
This little light switch was pretty cool, had it hooked up to a lamp in the living room so my Dad didn’t have to reach over and turn on, he could just leave the switch next to the couch and flip it on. It seems it worked well until a week ago, when the light bulb burnt out and then somehow zapped the plug unit. Now the plug unit doesn’t light up any more. Had it for about 3 months now.

4 Stars Good Stuff
Quick delivery and works well for two lamps in master bedroom. Hope they have similar products which can carry bigger current.

Besides, since every single set has unique code to pair between the switch and receiver, hopefully, they have products like two or more switches for one receiver. That will creat more convenience, especially you can turn on the lights at the doorway, and turn off it in bed.

1 Star A piece of junk…
This wireless light switch is a piece of junk. I ordered one, received it one evening, and installed it. It worked just fine. The next evening, it did not work. I checked all the connections, the light bulb, and the wall plug. All worked fine. Then I replaced the battery in the wireless switch. Nada. So, I sent an e-mail to the company and received a canned response back. In that response, I was told that I could only return it if I sent it back in the original package. The original package is a blister pack that requires various sharp instruments just to open. That package was long gone. Fortunately, I filed a complaint with Amazon.com and they stood behind their customer. If you need a wireless wall switch there are many out there. Skip this one.

5 Stars Recommended for older homes
I own a very old home and didn’t have the money to put in new electricity and walls in one of my bedrooms. This was the perfect solution. I now have an instant lightswitch with such ease a child could do it. And there’s no mess to live with!! I would definitely buy this product again with no questions.

5 Stars Handy Switch
I have 4 handy switches and they make my house much easier to use. The batteries last about a year with normal use and cosidering the cost of wiring in a switch, the batteries cost is a drop in the bucket. The special 23a batteries are available at Radio Shack or Walmart. Have used two switches for over a year and think they are great.

5 Stars Sonic Scrubber
Worked great on the pool tile and I also used it on tough stains on the carpeting!!

5 Stars Works great!
I have arthritis in my hands and wrists, and this electric scrubber saves me a lot of pain. In fact, with this and a few other helpful tools, I may be able to do without a housekeeper for the first time in quite a while.

One caveat: the batteries supplied with the unit aren’t very strong. I wonder if some of the negative reviews came from people who didn’t think to change the batteries. I use rechargeables, and I’m amazed at the difference.

With decent batteries, this device cleans things beautifully. I particularly like the pointed brush–it really gets into cracks.

5 Stars You too can have OCD
Indulge your inner obsessive compulsive! Do you want to become one of those people who everyone hates? Who spends all her time at other people’s houses noticing the dog hair, the cat hair or the chipped cup? Do you want to be the mother-in-law from hell? Well, then the Sonic Scrubber might just get you halfway there.

The problem is that the thing actually works too well. It’s sort of addictive – and this is coming from someone who’s a world-class slob. I’ll admit that I got so carried away with scrubbing and wiping, scrubbing and wiping that I didn’t want to stop cleaning my baseboards to take my kids to the pool – on a beautiful sunny day! The house looks like new – though I can’t guarantee how long it will stay that way. Basically, this product allows you to actually deal with those weird little smudges and smears that you’ve aware of (inside the grates above the microwave, around the individual spindles on the stairs, on the baseboards, inside the dryer (don’t ask)) but have never had the tools to deal with before. My problem is that if this thing ends up setting the standard for clean (Or as I like to say, “Dirty is the new clean”), then we’re all doomed. This “revolutionary” product might just set women back a hundred years – though presumably you can also push the button on the cleaning device if you’re male too. (In other words, if you buy it, immediately teach everyone else in your family how to use it too and make it very clear that it can be operated by either sex – unlike those other devices like, say, the iron or the vacuum cleaner.)

2 Stars Not worth the money
I was hesitant to buy the Sonic Scrubber, but only did so after seeing the Queen of Clean endorse it. Mistake. The Sonic Scrubber works, but it’s no better than using Bon Ami and a sponge. I was looking for a miracle cleaning device to make my life easier, and Sonic Scrubber is not it. I don’t even use the thing anymore. I wish I hadn’t wasted my money.

4 Stars The wife wants another one for the other house!
This product was better than I expected. It looked like an electric toothbrush, and the reviews were mixed, but the wife complained so much about needing to find a way to clean the tile grout in the kitchen, it was worth a try. Well, she LOVES it! Now she wants me to buy her a second one for the other house. It is rather like a large heavy duty toothbrush, and it doesn’t do magic on the grout, but it is waaaay better than anything else we tried. Would definitely recommend it, and will be ordering another one.
