Harry The Hippo Bath Spout Cover From Love Thy Bub Review

My daughters love to play when they're taking a bath. They would spend a long time playing and splashing around and I would always tell them to watch out for the bath spout. When I received the Harry the Hippo Bath Spout, I was quite excited to try it because it would help keep my daughters a bit more safe when they're taking a bath.

The Harry the Hippo Bath Spout Cover arrived in a simple packaging. It has a blue-green color and looks really cute.

The Harry The Hippo Bath Spout made taking a bath much fun and exciting for my daughters because they love seeing the water come out of Harry's mouth.

The material used in this bath spout cover has a firm rubbery feel which fits in our bath spout. It's easy to place and no tools were needed. It's also easy to remove as well.

I love that the Harry the Hippo Bath Spout Cover effectively covers the metal spout as well as make the spout look cute. In just a few seconds, I am more at ease that the Harry the Hippo Bath Spout Cover would help protect my daughters from getting hurt when they accidentally bump into the metal bath spout.

Be Seen At Night With The Mr Visibility USB LED Reflective Belt Review

Jogging or biking when it starts to get dark is more dangerous because pedestrians and bikers are less visible to vehicles but since hubby goes biking every Wednesday with his biking friends after work, I make sure that he has the proper gear to stay visible to cars.

When I received the Mr. Visibility USB LED Reflective Belt, I was quite excited to give it to hubby because it looked more effective compared to a regular reflective belt.

The Mr. Visibility USB LED Reflective Belt has a switch at the side which turns on a LED light in front of the belt. The area with a LED light measures approximately 18 inches in length and 2 inches in width. There are 2 light options which can be changed using the switch at the side. The first light option is a flashing light while the second option is a steady light.

The adjustable garter band at the back also has a 1 inch reflective strip to make the belt reflective 360 degrees.

The belt is adjustable to fit a waist from 25 to 50 inches (measurement according to the company). I like how this is more effective compared to a regular reflective vest because when turned on, this belt helps hubby remain visible even without a light shining on the belt.

I tried to use this as well and I like how comfortable this is and that it stays in place. The LED light works approximately 6 hours on steady light before I had to charge the belt. This is also waterproof so even when I sweat, I don't have to worry about damaging the LED reflective belt. Since this is rechargeable, I don't have to worry about buying batteries when the battery runs out. The USB cable included is safe to plug in to my laptop or a USB adapter.

Frederico's Heavy Duty Tire Pressure Gauge Review

Hubby goes biking every Wednesday with his friends and he says that they usually go up to 35 miles biking. He checks his bike tires every time he goes biking to ensure that he wouldn't get a flat tire and that the amount of air in his bike tire is sufficient. Of course, this would also ensure that he wouldn't get into any accidents.

When I received the Heavy Duty Tire Pressure Gauge by Frederico's, I knew that hubby could use this when he goes biking every Wednesday.

The Heavy Duty Tire Pressure Gauge by Frederico's arrived in a simple packaging. The tire pressure gauge is small, portable and easy to bring. The end of the valve stem can be rotated 360 degrees so that the meter can be positioned facing me/hubby. The meter/display is enclosed in a red rubber which I think is nice and meant to protect the meter/display.

There is also a button on the side (called the air bleeder valve) so that the pressure from the tire can be released if there has been too much air pumped in the tires.

I like the Heavy Duty Tire Pressure Gauge from Frederico's because it's easy to use and accurate. I like how hubby can use this on his bike as well as use this for our car. Now, I'm more confident that hubby's bike tires and our tire car always have the recommended pressure.

BOG Ultrabright LED Front And Rear Bike Lights Review

If you've been a follower of my blog for quite some time now, you might've read that hubby rides his bike when he goes to work because his work office is just 5 minutes away from our home. There's no problem with him riding his bike in the morning because he's visible. When he rides his bike to go home, that's where the problem is because it's almost dark. There were 2 instances when he was crossing an intersection and a right turning car didn't see him. Both hit the back wheel of his bike a bit but good thing they didn't hit his wheel hard.

I don't like the fact that even with his front and rear bike lights, there are some who's not careful enough when turning right in an intersection.

When I received the BOG Ultrabright LED light, I looked forward to try it to see if both the lights are bright enough for his bike.

The BOG Lights arrived in a yellow box. The contents inside the box were:

- 1 x 5-LED Head/front bike light
- 1 x bracket for the head/front bile light
- 1 x 5-LED Back/rear red bike light
- 1 x bracket for the back/rear bike light

The head/front bike light needed 3xAAA batteries to work while the back/rear bike light needed 2xAAA batteries to work. Batteries weren't included in the box.

What's included are 4 adhesive reflective strips which can be placed anywhere on the bike.

The 5-LED Headlight has 3 functions and which can be turned on/off and changed by pressing the grey button on top of the light. The bracket included can be installed on the bike easily. The headlight can be mounted on the bracket by sliding it on or off. Hubby brings the BOG headlight home by sliding it off the bracket to prevent it from being stolen.

The 5-LED red rear light has 7 functions which can be turned on/off or changed by pressing the button at the back of the light. Similar to the headlight, the bracket included is easily installed on the bike and the light can also be mounted on the bracket by sliding the light on or off the bracket.

The 5-LED headlight is very bright and increased hubby's visibility. The 5-LED red rear light is also bright which increases his visibility at the back. Hubby likes how easy to install the brackets are and I like how I have a peace of mind knowing that he'll be safer using the BOG lights.

The BabyVue Video Monitor arrived in a white box. It is well packed and there's an instruction booklet included inside the box.

The box came with the following:
- baby monitor
- camera
- 2 adapters
- instructions

The camera is easy to set-up and works well even in Night Mode. It works by plugging the included adapter into a power supply/wall socket.

The BabyVue monitor has a 2.0 LCD Screen. It is colored but don't expect an HD colored screen. :)

As soon as I turned the BabyVue monitor on, it automatically connected to the camera so set-up was very easy. I just had to set-up the date and time to the correct one and since it's already pre-set in English, I didn't have to change the language anymore.

I charged the BabyVue video monitor after I set it up. 

The baby monitor and camera has a microphone feature where I can talk through the baby monitor and I can hear what's happening in the other room as well. I like that I can interact with my daughters using the BabyVue Monitor and camera. There is a lag of about 2 seconds in the microphone but that's fine since the voices in both the monitor and camera are clear.

The nightmode option is okay and for me, is clear. The display is a bit grainier in nightmode compared to the normal mode but still, I can still see what's happening in nightmode.

There is also an option to play lullabies. Although it says lullabies, the songs played are Christmas-themed songs. I can adjust the volume of the sound/song through the baby monitor.

I also like that this can take the temperature of the room where the camera is. I can track down if the room is warm or cold because the baby monitor displays the temperature either in Farenheit or Celsius.

Overall, this pair is a nice and easy to use baby monitor and camera. I like the clarity of the baby monitor and I love how easy this is to set up.

Before I head on over to my review of the product, here is a quick description of the Travel Hardwear Money Belt from the company:

• THE PERFECT MONEY BELT? - At Travel Hardwear we strive for perfection. Our money belt is made with extra-strong, lightweight, water-resistant nylon ripstop. The flat buckle, thin construction and neutral color means no one can see the bulge under your shirt. On the skin-facing side you will find a soft, breathable, itch-free mesh panel. Two zippered pockets made with metal zippers plus an internal credit card slot allow for easy organization of your Passport, cash, tickets and credit cards.
• DON'T LET PICKPOCKETS AND THIEVES RUIN YOUR HOLIDAY - A modern money belt is a required accessory for anyone travelling overseas. No matter how careful you are it is just too easy for pickpockets to steal your wallet or purse in crowded areas. Don't learn the hard way!

The Travel Hardwear Money Belt came with 2 rainbow-colored luggage straps. It has a neutral tan color which is nice because it goes with almost all of my daily outfit. It also has an adjustable strap so either me or hubby can use it.

The zippered pockets keep the contents inside. I can place my cards, money and phone inside the pockets without the belt feeling bulky. This is great to use when traveling because I can have my essentials (money, cards and phone) strapped to my waist.

I also like how I can use it when I go out for a walk or jog because I can put my keys and phone here.

MuvePro Reflective Vest And Ankle Band Review + Giveaway 3/13 US/CAN

When hubby goes home from work, it's already a bit dark. Since his work office is just less than a mile away from our home, he just rides his bike to work. Twice, a car turning right slightly hit the back of his bike wheel. Mind you, he has 2 bike lights in front and one red light at the back. Thankfully, he didn't get injured on both counts.

When I received the MuvePro reflective Vest and Ankle Band, I knew that this would help him be more visible at night. I've done a review on a reflective vest before but there was no reflective ankle band included. So, I decided to use the old one when I jog and give this one to him.

Here is a short product description from the company:

MAIN BENEFITS...
- Feel safer wearing this vest during the early morning hours when it's still dark, or in the evening after the sun has gone down.
- It's comfortable and easy to adjust over a variety of light or bulky clothing and sportswear.
- Doesn't interfere with movement. Once you put it on, you will forget it's there!
- Unlike other vest that go on over your head, the MuvePro vest goes over your shoulders and securely clips into place.
- Lightweight and minimal so it won't add weight or warmth.
- Fold it up small. Great for commuting!
- Bonus reflective ankle bands add additional points of visibility!
- Increase your visibility while running, cycling, walking, biking, hiking or doing anything else outdoors.

MAIN FEATURES...
- Well-constructed of durable, stretchable fabric 1.5" wide with a 0.5" wide, reflective strip and long-lasting quality stitching.
- The sturdy ergonomic buckle is simple to use with gloves or cold hands.
- Adjustable size fits waist 31"-47" and shoulder height 14"-21.5".
- No batteries required.

The MuvePro Reflective Vest and Ankle Bands have a stretchable fabric. The reflective strip, which is seen in front and at the back, really reflects light which makes hubby more visible at night. The reflective vest is adjustable and is very lightweight. Hubby can just put it over his work clothes and he's good to go. It's not uncomfortable and doesn't weigh him down.

The ankle bands have 2 reflective strips each and makes him more visible when it's dark. It has a velcro snap and similar to the reflective vest, the material is stretchable as well.

The ankle bands also doubles to protect the hem of his pants from the bike chain. He can just place this over the hem of his pants and it helps keep the hem of his pants safe from the grease of the bike chain.

Overall, this is a very effective accessory to keep him more visible at night. It's very easy to use and makes me more confident that he's more safer when he rides his bike when he comes home from work.

Tarriss 2-Pack TSA Cable Luggage Lock Review

When we travel, we always lock our luggage to protect it from theft and robbery. We usually use a padlock with a key and the problem is, we usually misplace the keys after traveling so our locks would often be a one-time use lock only.

I was sent the Tariss Travel Gear TSA Cable Lock 2-Pack and although we're not going to travel in the near future, I was glad to have been sent these for future use. I can never have one too many locks right? :)

The Tariss TSA Cable arrived in a sealed plastic packaging. Both locks have a pre-set combination lock of 000.

The body of the lock is made of a high quality zinc alloy. They are quite heavy for their size and I do believe these are durable and long-lasting. The cable lock is made of a steel wire enclosed in a nylon-type plastic. These are thin and can fit the hole on the zipper of our luggage. Even though the cables are thin, I think they're durable because they're made out of steel wires.

The white arrows to align the 3-digit combination number I set is very easy to see. I like how I can set the combination lock multiple times.

Setting the combination was very easy. I made a video on how to set-up the combination lock of the Tarriss TSA Cable Lock. See video above. :)

What's new to me is that these locks have a Travel Sentry Logo. I've never heard of the Travel Sentry Logo before and that solves the mystery of the key-lock under the Tarriss TSA TSA Cable Luggage Lock.

The Travel Sentry Logo is the red, diamond shaped logo in front and at the back of the Tarriss TSA Cable Luggage Lock. What this does is, US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will be able to recognize this logo and they have a master key available for locks with the Travel Sentry logo. They can open your lock if they need to inspect your checked luggage, even if you're not there, preventing the need to cut open your cable/lock when you're not there. I think this is helpful specially if I don't want to find my locks cut, thus preventing theft as well.

As I've said, the locks are heavy and they look durable. Tarriss TSA Cable Luggage Lock comes with a lifetime guarantee and I think that's a great deal! :)
