We tried to do this with my son. It didn't work well for us for a number of reasons. He did learn to use the potty early but not as a baby. I went to a lot of local meetings of families trying it ...

My bedroom needs help. We have a decent closet, a good sized dreser, and a well edited collection of clothes. But for some reason folded laundry has no place to go and it's impossible to find the ...

I just came here in search of some good lamp suggestions for my new desk. I love it. It's the perfect balance of clean and warm.

They've had these in Brazil for a few years and I got to check one out at a home event a few years back. It was comfy as a sofa but did require a bit of muscle to raise. I definitely would consid...

I have a bissel steam mop (http://tinyurl.com/33fsl3). I love it and I haven't used a chemical on my kitchen or bathroom floors in years. I do have to go around the baseboards with a rag though b...

These are fine to go up and relatively OK for going down (with 1 hand on railing). Alternating tread stairs were invented by Santos Dumont. His house is now a museum and you can climb the stairs....

Costco has been selling some really nice reusable bags recently. They are really big and groceries will stand upright in them. The long handles and large size make them more convenient than disposa...

I would get another high end jogger (either another Q series or a Bob) but I would get it off Craigslist so you don’t loose much if it’s stolen again. I think you’ll be happier wi...

We have the Gulliver. We have it pulled up to the chair and I am happy with it but I would be even happier if it were 1cm. shorter. When I pull it up to the table the front ledge and armrests won...

It's not a matter of 2 people standing side by side. It's more that you want to be able to see the whole wardrobe at once.

If the child isn't walking already, consider a push car or wagon. One year is just about the time they can start walking with support and if it's a wagon, they can enjoy it for a while afterward fo...

I just got this last week and I'm delighted with it. http://tinyurl.com/22mska Now that it's on sale I'm tempted to get another for dirty items. ...

I was at Fry's to get an oleiva that I'd seen there before when I saw a Toshiba for $50 more at the same resolution so we got that. I love the picture quality.

That sounds like good advice for anyone who wants to make improvements without big investments. You know how sometimes people clean up just for the buyers and then wonder why they didn't do it ea...

These are like the stairs invented by Santos Dumond. These kinds of stairs are very comfortable on the way up but they feel a bit steep on the way down.

I cross posted with the last poster but that's an interesting idea. The table would partially block the large window though and I know some people manage to pull that off but when I see furniture ...

Unfortunately, that's not the coat closet. That's my front door. The closet is beyond the kitchen behind the camera area. It's just a really strange floor plan. The table can't come closer to t...
