As Seen On TV Home Organizers TESTED!

not every as-seen-on-tv product is a waste of money but how would you really know that unless you try them or better yet retry them for you this week we're gonna showcase a few as seen on tv products designed for organizing your clutter and cleaning up that garbage dump that you call a living room with [Music] woolly mammoth populations on the rise it's become entirely too evident that environmentally-friendly solutions are a must needed addition to our everyday routine we chose to review the applet titled grab bag for that reason alone the grab bag is a reusable grocery shopping assistant that easily clips to each side of your shopping cart this of course allows you to separate your items with the greatest of ease in addition to allowing you to snub your nose at people who use store provided bags that often end up in a landfill when you finally manage to get the assuredly biodegradable tape off to release the treasures within you'll come to realize why it had such a firm grip in the first place this box contains not only one but two grab bags and some instructions as an unnecessary but welcome lee added bonus you get two logoed bulb head stickers upon review of the instruction manual we found that there were indeed instructions on how to hook the bag to a shopping cart using the bag and a shopping cart as well as how to remove and fold the bag in half when you're all done to open this guy up just flip it over and undo the velcro strap that they included to ensure that your bag stays closed while it's empty this is where the grab bag really shows its true dimensions it's almost as wide as a traditional cart just a hair shallower it's actually as if this thing was designed to fit inside of a cart of fixing the grab bag to your shopping cart is actually quite easy and as you can see it even works perfectly with our cardboard demonstration box go ahead and leave a three in the comment section if Scott needs to trim his arm hair it's really just as simple as spreading out the bag and hanging the clips right onto the edge when you're all done just lift the clips from the basket and carry the bag using the sturdy handles there's even a nicely sized pocket in the front to put your bruza bowl fruit sin2 in conclusion at just above four and a half stars on Amazon this thing is one of the highest rated products that we've ever reviewed we just don't really understand why it's exactly the same material as this shopping bag we purchased for a buck and it holds about the same amount sure your brochures bag may not stay open immediately due the fact that there aren't eclipse on it but it's gonna stay open once you put items in it now they do actually make a grab bag that's insulated to keep cold food separated from hot foods which is a pretty solid idea you can easily save that money by dropping any insulated bag inside your traditional sack for a thrifty version with the same effect our final verdict is that for most scenarios all you need is a tried-and-true reusable bag and then just put your items into that checkout now they may not have the external pocket for you to hide all your coupons in but hey they get the job done just fine and at 1/8 of the price the convenience of the hanging bag is somewhat and validated by having to take the groceries out again to purchase them because you just have to repack them in again anyway so while it works as intended it does create a bit of extra work during your shopping excursion this is shoes under it's an as-seen-on-tv space saver made to securely hold 12 pairs of shoes oh and finally put an end to that pile of stinkers you keep in your closet ideally you can hide them right under your bed with a see-through cover it's also perfect to put them back in the closet eliminating clutter while staying convenient after easily unboxing this fine specimen we are delighted to find the organizer and an instruction booklet normally you wouldn't think to look at the instruction booklet for a shoe organizer but we're sure glad we did not only did it give us a sense of pride and accomplishment but it also Illustrated how to put a pair of stilettos comfortably into one slot this is obviously very important information for when you're putting away your Friday night cosplay it also mentions that for best results you clean your shoes with a damp cloth first and make sure to only store them once they're clean and dry let's head over to the closet and put this thing into action go ahead and clear out some space for your newfound friend next just unfold the organizer and revel in its majestic splendor ok it looks a little flimsy but you're just using it to store shoes right not your family heirlooms you may notice that the dividers aren't really attached at the bottom but truthfully this is a good thing you want to have a little bit of give when you're dealing with multiple pairs of shoes since they aren't always the same shape after giving Jack Skellington clogs the after mentioned wipe down both inside now we're ready to start filling this thing up with our shoe collection we salvaged these Buffalo Bills shoes from the junkyard and they fit perfectly as you can see that's not the case with men's basketball shoes at this size only one will comfortably fit in each compartment and you don't want to force it because this is actually made from the same material that the grab bag works so it may not rip immediately but you don't want to risk it either just stick to one per slot and you'll be a happy camper once it's full simply flip the transparent cover over the top and zip it closed after that transporting your shoes to a hiding spot of your choice is a cinch with this handy handle and could even make traveling with multiple shoes a breeze sliding this thing under and out of your bed on a whim couldn't be any easier although we did notice that this thing really does take up a bit of real estate when placed in our walk-in closet perhaps even a bit too much it's definitely more suited to be placed in a hallway closet if that's your fancy overall we'd say that the shoes under is a pretty standard fare as far as shoe organizers go and you pretty much get what you expect albeit a flimsier version the majority of low score reviews on Amazon refer to the material itself or the weak zipper but if you're just setting this thing on the ground and only adding or removing shoes seems to get the job done pretty well if there was a reason to skip the shoes under well it'd probably be the $12 and 50 cent price point for only $5 more you can actually get a sturdier similar product that would assuredly stand the test of time the spicy shelf deluxe is the much-needed follow-up to the original spicy shelf cabinet organizers it's an adjustable stackable solution to keep all your spices organized and easy to access the deluxe version claims to be five times stronger than the original with a non-slip grip built right into the shelf you know for those pesky times that you're extremely heavy spices slide away on their own coming in as our most expensive item at 28 bucks we wanted to note that you can always find this thing on clearance racks anywhere from discount clothing stores to good well you may not find the newest version but snagging the original for three bucks is a steal and it performs the same task after unboxing all the pieces to the spicy shelf we were a bit confused as to whether we'd be organizing spices or constructing the Millennium Falcon but after your panic attack subsides it's easiest to sort the parts by type and prepare for the task at hand heading over to the kitchen locate whatever cabinet you'd like to install the shelf into and clear out the contents when it's clear go ahead and take the initiative to give your cabinet a nice wipe down after perusing the instruction novel that came with this product we found that its construction was fairly straightforward the sides of the Shelf attached to a thin bar that'll end up being at the back of your cabinet this bar is fairly short but it comes with snap-on attachments to lengthen it for a wider use next simply turn the shelf upside down and insert the side braces and the peg leg as per usual the peg leg is a bit shorter so you'll be attaching a little shoe to it to make it a uniform height and there you have it a non-euclidean spice stash in our full-size application it was just a bit too small to fill the cabinet completely although it functioned as designed it wasn't the clean look that we were going for but no worries after rearranging some of the extensions in the rear we went back to our plethora of spare pieces went with a thinner side-by-side version using both shelfs instead upon installation we'd created the perfect fit and it's actually very sturdy and does an amazing job of displaying all your spices an easy-to-read format for half sized cabinets you would start by removing the existing shelf to make room for mr. spicy to move in then slide in the Shelf and spread it out until you achieve a perfect fit once you've got it in there you just snap on the feet and the peg leg if you're going for a two tiered system just repeat this process but snap the upper shelves legs onto the top side of the lower shelf when it's all loaded up it looks like an actual adult lives here and finally we have a place to showcase our herbs did put a vault in conclusion we're delighted to say that the spicy shelf is a great addition to your everyday kitchen use and it's got a 4.3 star score on Amazon which reflects that super handy and once you get past the initial time investment it's done deal got it forever we aren't gonna sugarcoat the fact that a nearly $30 investment for a spice shelf is pretty steep but if you don't want to hunt down one in the bargain bin or perhaps cut your own shelf into this shape we'd save do yourself a favor and make the one-time investment build bonanza may not seem like an organizational product at first glance but it's all about how you apply it at its core build Bonanza is an adhesive strip that you can attach Lego bricks to the beauty of this product is that you can use it for a myriad of constructions due to the fact that not only you can cut custom pieces to fit your needs but that those pieces can be removed and reapplied nearly anywhere unwrapping this thing was a small job in itself but once you've reached through the packaging you'll be met with four multicolored rolls of adhesive leg of style tape to give you a quick demonstration we decided to make a fun key holder for our entryway simply snap on the Lego bricks in your desired fashion and snip the tape to size place the brick tape onto the surface of your choice and then head back over to your workbench with your bricks and obviously some animal themed keys go ahead and grab a drill with a slim bit and drill a small hole right through the bottom corner of your Lego brick ensuring to get through both front and bottom of the block when you're done just wiggle a keyring through the holes there you have it easy keychain that you can attach to your entryway while you're home constantly be stabbed while it's in your pocket if there's tons of things you can do with this stuff so we also made a convenient mail slot just to give you an example of other ways you could use
