Looking like something from the space age, the PlasmaCar is a sleekly designed, people-powered vehicle using the physics concepts of centrifugal force and gravity to provide the motion. With no batteries to recharge and no pedals to propel the car, it is an award-winning marvel of engineering. The car is powered by simply turning the wheel creating forward motion. To slow the car, simply stop turning the wheel. Just put your feet down to make it stop. The PlasmaCar is very simple to put together and comes in a variety of great colors and can support up to 220 pounds so adults can take a whirl also.

Although the design is enticing, several reviewers were disappointed that the car requires a perfectly smooth and flat surface to operate at more than a snail’s pace. Children become frustrated at the slow pace on a level sidewalk. The perfect surface for achieving some speed is a smooth concrete garage floor or wood gymnasium floor, but kids want to enjoy riding on the sidewalk or driveway. A number of reviewers reported that the PlasmaCar is not well constructed and there were problems with wheels and other parts not staying in place. The car also cannot be left outside in wet weather or metal parts may rust making it inoperable. One reviewer pointed out that the instructions state that it can damage wood floors, a surface where the car operates well.

Chances are you’re at least familiar with the Pampered Chef name, whether it be from word of mouth or from a Pampered Chef party. From those same people who make a home presentation show fun comes their version of the hand-held can opener. The Pampered Chef Smooth-Edge Can Opener #2578 does what one expects of a Pampered Chef Can Opener: with a twist of your wrist, that can of soup is open and ready to eat. However, what seems to set this model apart from others is the fact that it leaves the can’s detached top with a smooth edge which can be used as a lid for the can for food storage. Take a look at the photos below to see the smooth edge.

For years, we were cautioned not to store leftover food in the cans they came from, but technology has advanced, and some canned brands feature a coating that makes it safe to use the can to store unused quantities. Plus, the absence of a ragged, cut lid’s edge means no chances of nicks or cuts on your fingers. This unit also keeps the lid from falling into the can’s contents. Overall reviews were positive, however, it should be noted customers had some difficulty learning to use this model.

No camping trip is complete without the Grand Trunk Ultralight Hammock. Weighing only 12 ounces, the hammock is super easy to carry and offers a comfortable place to sleep or relax. Made from 100% polyester taffeta, the hammock can be used with a sleeping pad for added comfort and comes with pre-knotted rope. You won’t have to worry about this lightweight hammock weighing you down and the included S-hooks allow you to set up your sleeping area within minutes. Since this camping hammock is designed for the outdoor traveler, it has many awesome features that keep it compatible with the rugged outdoors.

For example, the hammock is mildew resistant, dries quickly and comes with a hefty 10 year warranty. The Grand Trunk hammock is a bit more expensive compared to the Texsport La Paz brand, another lightweight hammock. However, many reviewers preferred the Grand Trunk brand, as this hammock is lighter and also comes with stainless steel hooks for quick set-up. In general, online reviews are positive, as the camping hammock stays true to what it offers. Many of the reviewers are avid travelers and use the hammock to relax and nap while camping in the woods. Reviewers also love how easy the folding hammock is to care for, drying almost immediately when wet. There are a few complaints however, as some product owners found these camping hammocks to be of poor quality, not holding the 250 pounds that it claims. Yet for the majority of product owners, the sturdy outdoor hammock did just fine with two adults at one time.
