I have one of the sleep pods, my Nana got it for me, I haven't really used it cuz I got it when it was really hot and we don't have AC so I got hot in it, and keep forgetting about it when it's cooler. But they do make one with an opening at the bottom if you like to stick your feet out. That's the one I have, because I like doing that.

Those origami measuring spoons needed a better test. I would have liked to see them used with basic baking goods. I rarely need measuring spoons for peanut butter in recipes (if I'm making something with peanut butter it's getting like 1/2 a cup and I'm likely using a metal spoon or rubber spatula to get it out.) I would have liked to see if it did hold liquid like water and if the amount you measured in it was actually accurate compared to a normal set of measuring spoons.

[@531ashmarie]

Agreed!

[@MrsBees]

One other criticism I also have with the hug sleep pod is having to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night especially when you are trying to not wake yourself too much. If you are a pillow between the legs person, like me, then it makes this even harder. Plus tying to get a pillow inside and in position to start with takes too much time and effort when you are trying to relax and go to sleep. If you are a bigger person it makes this even more difficult. So if you don't sleep with a knee pillow or get up at night often then it may be ok for you.

[@jewing1995]

I just use wool dryer balls to keep my clothes and sheets form getting tangled and not dried. Works well and keeps things from tangling

[@tincoral]

Added bonus when they go on sale for $5 on Amazon!! The great thing is the 2 times I had to get replacements within a week or two they dropped down to that price!!

[@somewherenorth4092]

I think you need to give that origami measuring spoon a fair shake. Make your cookie recipe with it, or something like that.

[@beangrandpa4124]

Yeah, I think that they were made for dry ingredients and thinner spreads.

[@RachhLovesLife]

That's the thing - it's made for wet and dry. If it's meant to replace actual tsp and tbsp then I want it to perform. Even spreading was less easy than a knife. I understand that the oat butter is super viscous and I think I mentioned there that it's likely better for thinner stuff but it still collapses super easily and I think that could be fixed.

[@KinniMoo]

@@RachhLovesLife I agree, if you can’t use it for everything it is kind of pointless. Also, I have doubts about it with liquid.

I recently saw an ad for the hug blanket thing and I believe it said it had a little compartment at the bottom so you could let your foot out. I'm an aggressive sleeper so weighted blankets are my thing, but just an FYI for those who may be interested. 🙂

Might depend on the specific one you get, I saw someone review one with a foot-escape, but Rach's didn't look like it had one (although maybe it was just concealed somehow?)

For the oat butter, we only tried the original, and I couldn't get past the gritty texture and how it's basically oats and olive oil. I can't eat peanut butter, but I can have almond butter which I like. I've tried sunflower butter, which i found to be very "gray" tasting.

Ah washing sheets, especially fitted sheets is a pain. I've made the mistake of putting other items in with my sheets, go to make the bed and launched a missing sock across the room because it was tucked into the very corner of a fitted sheet and I was none the wiser to it being there, having things to help wash them would be so nice.

Rachel, there’s a knee pillow that is perfectly shaped and sized. It’s by Biopedic and Walmart sells them. I think mine was less than $20 and it has a strap so it stays put even if you roll over:)

[@MillieVonMint]

We use the “Wad-free” device for our California King fitted sheet and duvet cover, and have been using it for over a year now. I will say that it usually keeps them from becoming a clump in the washer, but they still find a way in the dryer. It is usually not as tightly wound up as they would have been without it, but they are still twisted. We have the “Purple” fitted sheet, so it is stretchy, which may be a contributing factor, but I thought it was worth a try, and it has at least helped somewhat. 😁👍🏻

[@kimchaffa]

Omg I was literally throwing in my load of sheets as well just when you were....lol I have the exact same machine as you. So I started turning the dial and then a second later you did and I couldn't figure out why there was an "echo" 😂

[@moni13000]

Yea the scooper things (can’t remember what they were called) are a pretty genius concept, I was actually surprised at how clever it was to come up with at all. If it worked well it would be a great utensil to have: cleans easily, incredibly easy to store since it won’t take up basically any room. Not sure if maybe having stronger magnets would help the stability, but I hope that he figured out a solution cause that would be really handy to have.

[@MelissaParrella]

The slumberpod is the best! Keeps every sleeping spot away from home feel consistent!

[@0n3c3nt]

I absolutely love the wad free things. We use it for our duvet cover. I helps it dry WAY faster. Because it’s 100% cotton it can’t be used in the dryer with heat. Before wad free it would take around 3 hours on air only. with wad free it dries in 1hr 30 mins. Even faster if I put it on a clothing line for a little bit. (I don’t completely clothing line dry it because I can’t stand the way it feels after. I have sensory issues.

[@0n3c3nt]

Our king duvet is also really heavy when wet and SUPER hard to un wad. Without wad free it knots itself multiple times. We would have to check the dryer like every 30 mins un wad and start the dryer again.

[@smilin4God]

I recently bought a shark tank product: xero shoes…and I’m kinda in love with them. With my flat feet, joint disorder, and old foot injury I’m limited with what I can wear when it comes to shoes and I’ve been working 8-9 hr days in them with no problems…

[@Donz112nz]

Loved the ‘Lo quote’ “personally, as a person” 🤣🥰💜

[@cherie7100]

It looked like the scoops are probably for softer 'wet' foods or mostly dry foods. Those spreads looked pretty thick and if it's only secured by a magnet I can see why it would come apart in anything dense. If it had a clip or snap it would probably work better

[@nvpr8720]

I got the oat butter after seeing it on shark tank! The vanilla one tasted super good but the taste disappears when you spread it on bread or with fruit, or with anything lol I would just eat spoonfuls of it 😅

[@nicolelavigne1700]

I got to be honest, the origami spoons don't excite or appeal to me at all. Maybe more if you were camping? But how often do you need measuring spoons for camping? I foresee ingredients like sugar or flour potentially getting wedged up where the magnets snap together. It looks like you can't just shake it to even out the ingredient because it gets too shallow. It probably would struggle with brown sugar as well as thick spreads like peanut butter.

[@cdansou01]

I know you were joking about wanting a sleep tent, but they do make them for adults. Not sure if it’s the same brand, but there are popular ones that sell on Amazon. We got one for all of the people in my household. I’ve got girls that share a bedroom, that are about 8 years apart (12/20). We’ve attached one to each of their beds and it’s been great. My eldest goes to bed later than my youngest does, but my you test can fall asleep easily because it blocks out all the light. When my you test gets up for school, she can turn the light on and my eldest is shielded from the light in the morning. I highly recommend them for everyone. Yes they are a bit pricy, especially if you buy one for everyone in a large family; but to us it’s worth it.

Another amazing alternative to nut butter is the 88 acres brand. They make spreads and protien bars with sunflower and pumpkin seeds that are "free from" a lot of the top allergens. Their plain sunbutter is just average, but the flavors. Oh my goodness the flavors! The chocolate tastes exactly how i remember nutella. And the cinnamon vanilla tatses like cookie butter. As someone who developed allergies later in life, its been amazing to find spreads and protein bars I can actually eat.
