Oreck Platinum Pilot Vacuum Recap

In and Out, In and Out, In and Out

That’s the kids and I now that the weather is nice. We go to the park then come home for a snack then head out to take a walk then come back for a nap then out to meet Shaun at the bustop then back in till after dinner for some last minute daylight running around. All of this in and out means dirt tracked in the house and kitchen. The Oreck Platinum Pilot is my new favorite vacuum!

We’ve been using another vacuum for a few months and it’s been heaven but I might have to say I like the Oreck Platinum Pilot just a bit more. Saying this has great suction is an understatement; I have to hold down the small rugs because the Oreck will drag them out of their spot its suction is so strong; 102 mph airflow strong. I also love that it’s lighter and quieter than our other vacuum. I can actually hold a conversation while vacuuming. I’m not saying I can talk on the phone while vacuuming but I can easily talk to the kids or Rob when it’s on especially it’s lower of 2 speeds. Carrying it up and down the steps is a breeze too, 6 lbs is a big difference.

Excellent for allergen control, the HEPA filtration system traps up to 99.9 percent of dust and allergens down to 0.3 microns. The Saniseal vacuum bag system seals the bag shut, locking in dirt, dust and allergens, unlike dust cups in bagless vacuums that can leak particles back into the home, onto hands, into the eyes and face when emptied, according to Oreck Corporation research. Changing Oreck bags is effortless, odorless and clean. Oreck bags help eliminate pet odors and other stubborn smells, and can hold as much dirt and dust as four bagless dust cups.
The one thing that I’m not crazy about is that I have to always have bags on hand. I like the fact that canisters than can be emptied and you are on your way. I don’t want to worry about Sabreena using the last bag and not telling us to restock.

The Oreck Platinum Pilot has 360˚ Glide Technology which allows you to tilt, twist, turn and move easily around furniture and walls. While it does pivot around the coffee table and sofa I feel our other vacuum has better turn on the dime maneuverability.

It’s not fancy or flashy or brightly colored. It’s a vacuum and it looks like a vacuum and works like a vacuum should. Win your own Oreck Platinum Pilot ($599 value) here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! Visit Oreck and tell me another product you would love to try.

KidsCraft Playhouses Recapitulation

Kids love to play in boxes but who has boxes big enough just laying around the house. It is nice if you are in the market for a new refrigerator or washer and dryer because the kids then hit the jackpot. If you aren’t in the market for new appliances Kidscraft Playhouses are the answer with their Creation Cottage and Shuttle Imagination.

Two dads and a grandfather from Atlanta got a first hand look at how the cardboard box captures a child’s way of thinking. While packing up their financial services business, moving from one office to another, their kids tagged along. Although the fathers brought along playthings like coloring books and crayons for the 3 to 7 year olds, it was the empty boxes that captivated the youngsters. The dads saw the sparks of a business and KidsCraft Playhouses was born.

Made of 100% recycled material and made in the USA, two sturdy designs are available online and at select specialty retailers. The Shuttle Imagination, a large spaceship and the Creation Cottage, a playhouse, are ingeniously designed so there’s no need for cutting, taping or measuring. The flaps and slots are specifically designed and pre-cut for easy assembly and can withstand hours of play.

The outside of these cardboard houses are blank so that kids can use their imagination and color them how they see fit. KidsCraft will mail a free 8-pack of crayons to kids when they redeem their sales receipt online at www.kidscraftusa.com. These aren’t your ordinary crayons – they’re 100 % recycled from unwanted crayons.

When we got our Creation Cottage for analyse Shaun and Shae were so excited they must have asked a million times when we were going to set it up. Set up was a breeze and took no longer then thirty minutes from box to full blow house with a door, windows and a chimney. Shaun and Shae love to take blankets, pillows and stuffed animals and just sit inside of the cottage and play. The one thing to beware of is its size as it is pretty large (42”L x 39”W x 54”H) and will take up a good amount of space. Otherwise no complaints at all. Sabreena customized our cottage with an awesome paint job and it looks like a real cottage.
Here are some further details on the two houses offered:
The Creation Cottage • $59.95
Indoors or out, this pint size cottage is a perfect playroom for solo play or for the neighborhood gang. Made from 100% recycled materials, the unique design allows for a sturdy drawing surface for tykes. The white exterior is a blank canvas designed to inspire the imagination and creation from little Picassos. Five windows and a door make for fun peek-a-boo play. The Creation Cottage comes with a promotional offer for free recycled crayons that are made in the U.S. The Creation Cottage measures 42”L x 39”W x 54”H.
 
Shuttle Imagination • $69.95
For out-of-this-world imagination, the space shuttle can take kids on a new adventure every day! Made of 100% recycled materials, the unique design allows for a sturdy drawing surface. Double bay doors and two portholes add a dimension of fun. Color the shuttle’s surface to show where you will travel or what discoveries you’ve already made! The Shuttle Imagination comes with a promotional offer for free recycled crayons that are made in the U.S. The Shuttle Imagination measures 39”L x 34”W x 72”H. Fin attachments are 12” long.

Enter for you chance to win either a Shuttle Imagination or Cottage Creation.  All you have to do is go to Kids Craft Playhouses and tell me would you perfer to have the Shuttle Imagination or Creation Cottage in you win.

Seventh Generation Cleaning Kit Recap

Green cleaning starts with non-toxic products without losing their ability to kill germs and remove dirt and grime. Seventh Generation is a leader in the manufacturing of eco-conscious and sustainable home and family care products. I knew about their baby care items when Shae was a baby but we cloth diapered her so I didn’t need chlorine free/dye free diapers. Now they have a complete cleaning selection that covers the kitchen, bath and laundry.
I’ve been considering some of these products over the last couple weeks and have liked the results so far. The one thing I don’t like is the after smell of the Lemongrass and Thyme Disinfecting cleaners and wipes. It starts off just fine with a natural woodsy scent but the lingering smell is too strong and almost chemical like. If they could do a more citrus smell I’d be all over it.
Regardless of my dislike of the smell Seventh Generation disinfecting cleaners they do kill over 99.99% of household germs, specifically: Influenza A, H1N1, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enterica, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli on hard, nonporous surfaces. With kids in the house and their sometimes lack of hygiene and manners this is a HUGE bonus.
Seventh Generation operates with a very clear focus.
The Change We Want to See

  • Restore the environment
  • Inspire conscious consumption
  • Create a just and equitable world

The Different Way We Operate

  • Systems thinking
  • Radical transparency
  • Influence beyond our size

These things make Seventh Generation different than other household cleaning products. From the very beginning, Seventh Generation has pushed to have a real impact on competitors, suppliers, communities, and government. Products may be the vehicle, but far-reaching, genuine change is the mission.
Seventh Generation is offering LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! readers the chance to win a complete cleaning kit to celebrate Earth Day. The kit includes:

  • Disinfecting Multi-Surface Cleaner
  • Disinfecting Bathroom Cleaner
  • Disinfecting Wipes
  • Two rolls of 100% recycled brown unbleached paper towels
  • The Conscious Kitchen a book Alexandra Zissu
  • A handy Cleaning Caddy made from recycled plastic

 

To enter visit Seventh Generation and tell me something you have learned about the company.

[me] and goji Custom Cereal Recap

Breakfast is supposed to be the fuel to start your day. But today’s top breakfast cereal brands fail at providing quality nutrition, proper vitamins and minerals and adequate fiber and ingredients especially for those with special dietary needs and restrictions. A group of young men; Adam, Carl and Alexander dreamed up the solution; [me] & goji.
[me] & goji is simply a custom cereal & granola company. I say simply because when you start looking through the ingredients it really is a simple and healthy and unique idea that should’ve been obvious to cereal makers all along. With over 60 all-natural and organic ingredients to choose from the mixes are endless. If you aren’t too creative or aren’t too sure what flavors will match well you can select from one of their own favorite blends.

The process is easy though to choose your own mix. Start with your base (flakes, hoops, granola, etc) add your dried fruits and nuts and then the best part, customize your box. I was able to get 3 customized containers of cereal for the kids. For Shaun’s and Shae’s I added super cute pictures of them and fun titles. My kids reach for [me] & goji as an afternoon snack and yogurt mix-in.

What I really appreciate about [me] & goji is it offers so many options. Whether you’re a health nut or wanna be you can mix a nutritious and tasty meal while feeling good about putting good stuff into your body. [me] & goji offers options for those who suffer from Celiac Disease, IBS and other digestive and diet needs. You don’t need to have a medical reason to enjoy a quality, healthy, green cereal.

Visit [me] & goji to learn about the efforts they are putting forth to create a healthier workplace, a sustainable business and a greener environment. Win your own customize cereal from [me] & goji by telling me what ingredients you would choose.

Coupon Magic Organizer Recap

I wouldn’t call myself frugal but I do watch sales and clip coupons for groceries. True Couponing is the art of effectively using coupons in conjunction with sales, rebates and rewards programs to stretch those hard-earned dollars. There are tons of resources out there to get you started but you must start with one thing, organization; The Coupon Magic Organizer gives you that start.

Created out of necessity, working mom of 2, Tania Mings, created the Coupon Magic Organizer to help organize and utilize her coupons to the fullest. She needed a way to keep everything from her meal plan to the shopping list to her store flyers in one spot so that her grocery shopping would be smooth and best of all CHEAPER.

Organization is key for everything in our lives to live simpler, healthier and more resourceful. Grocery Shopping is no different. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone shopping with a list but without coupons. I’ve also gone shopping without a list and was stuck with 23 vanilla yogurts in the fridge. I was sent a Gold Edition Coupon Magic Organizer to analyse, watch how it works for me:


My personal wish; I want a smaller binder option. Half that size would be perfect for me so I could carry with me at all times. That is really where I go wrong with using coupons, not having them with me while running errands or stopping in to grab a few things if we need something for dinner on the way home from something else. The system is great though; it’s packed with tons of information and great ideas and tools to implement immediately and change over time to fit your lifestyle, schedule and personality. Shop for your own Gold or Silver Edition systems using coupon code “MOMDAD” for 10% off.  Don’t need all the tools but just want to know how to start turning coupons into cash you can download the Instructional Manual for just $10.  Thats a small price to pay for a big payoff often in your first shopping trip after utilizing the methods.

Like promised here is a sampling of the list of websites recommended by Tania Mings to help you get started on coupon organizing & money saving bliss:
Upromise.com-everyday spending pays you back with money for college
Dealcatcher.com- online coupons, products, sales and rebates
Moneysavingmom.com-tips on stretching your dollars and live on less $$

Win your own Coupon Magic Organizer “GOLD Edition System”. This set includes: Color-Coded Dividers, 20 pages of 9-slot coupon pages (will hold 180 coupons), 3 Store Pockets, 3 pages of 3-slot coupon pages, Price Book (5 pages), Coupon Magic Organizer Meal Planner (12 pages), Coupon Magic Organizer Shopping List (12 pages), Fourteen Page Instructional and Savings Guide. The GOLD Edition does include the binder. To enter tell me how many times you go grocery shopping in 1 weeks time.

Beauty Fusion inFATuation Plumping Lipcolor Audit

By now you should know; I love cosmetics. I always have lip colors/glosses in my purse, diaper bag and coat pockets. If I wear nothing else I at least like a bit of shine. Lip Fusion from Fusion Beauty is the newest addition to my assortment. Lip Fusion is a collection of lip-plumping colors, pencils, treatments and glosses designed to give you a luscious pout without needles, doctors or pain.


Following the success of her first innovations, CLEAN™ Fragrance and Dessert Beauty™, founder and leading cosmetic entrepreneur Randi Shinder, recognized that women who wanted full, beautiful lips had very few safe and effective alternatives to costly and painful in-office injections. Working with one of the industry’s top labs, Ms. Shinder discovered a revolutionary patented technology in France – the first ever penetrating collagen. Collagen dehydrated into tiny microspheres that could penetrate and then re-plump with the body’s natural water, collagen that could mimic cosmetic filler. With this technology and with her expertise in the beauty business, Ms. Shinder developed LipFusion™ – the first needle-free, micro-injected collagen lip enhancer.

I’ve been wearing LipFusion Infatuation Liquid Shine Multi-Action Lip Fattener in Big & Bare for a couple weeks. The shine is enough to satisfy me but the plumping action is a bonus. Applying required a mirror, the texture is thick and would look streaky and clumpy if not evenly applied. The formula did tingle but didn’t hurt. I’ve heard other products burned. I did notice a plump in my lips, not a full Angelina Jolie swell but a slight fullness especially on the outer edges. I tried to capture on photo but it’s hard to notice. Maybe it’s the shine that’s tricking the eye, either way I liked the final outcome; glossy soft lips with a sexy look.
Sorry for the tired look.
