Power Curl Product Review


"'Power Curl' Product - Get Wound Up"
All Apple laptop users find themselves in the same predicament - organization for the power cord. Apple's MagSafe Power Adapter can be easily managed by Quirky's Power Curl. Quickly and efficiently store your laptop power adapter in seconds.




Power Curl is a means to an end. Literally, the Power Curl brings it altogether. The Power Curl is obviously the right size for the job. The design is insanely simple - which is what we need - nothing complicated. Apple's MagSafe Power Adapter neatly hides within the Power Curl and wraps around it.



The Power Curl can be purchased for $12.99 - legit price. The Power Curl is reasonably priced for the job it performs. I give Quirky two thumbs up for the pricing. I'd buy it if I had a MagSafe Power Adapter.


The Power Curl curls up right next to you for a job well done. Functionality is there - performance is there - now go buy one!

Pivot Power Product Review



"'Pivot Power' Product - A Creative Outlet"
Talk about a craze - everyone is crazy about this product! No joke, this thing has sold like hot cakes. Congratulations to Jake Zien who designed this product. To date - Jake has been paid out over $240,000! Woah! Will he be the first Quirky millionaire? Possibly. How exciting!


Alright - on to the design of the power outlet product. Jake Zien wonderfully engineered this power outlet to adapt to different angles and more importantly different power devices. This power outlet has six adjustable outlets and six feet of cord length. The one downside is that the product is a bit bulky. Other than that - I give the design a huge thumbs up!

 

The Pivot Power's price is fairly reasonable at $29.99. If it was priced below $20.00, I would have my doubts about the products quality. If it was priced above $30.00, then I don't think it would sell as well. I mean - who buys a power outlet for over $30.00? Exactly...well done Quirky - price is pretty efficient to the quality ratio.

 

The Pivot Power's function is superb! A problem that needed to be fixed! Our phone chargers, camera chargers, etc. that are too large to fit on a normal power strip - easily managed on the Pivot Power! The Pivot Power excels at maintaining simplicity while providing adequate functionality.

Environmentally Friendly Sponge



PROBLEM(S):
One, I get sick of throwing away handled sponges. What a waste.
Two, I get sick of picking up that nasty metal catcher - that catches disgusting food particles.
Three, I hate having multiple products sitting around: why not a plastic brush + sponge in one!

NEED A SPONGE that you dont have to throw away?!?! A MULTI-FUNCTIONAL SPONGE that has LIQUID SOAP, BRUSH, SPONGE, TONGS!
CHECK THIS OUT!
SOLUTION: this multi-functional sponge serves as a liquid soap holder, replaceable sponge holder, plastic brush, & tongs.
HOW IT WORKS: The handle is attached to the liquid soap dispenser. Now, there is a lever (the same one on your laptops) that quick releases the "plastic brush/sponge head." It's quite simple. In fact, you can easily replace the sponge. As for the tongs, they are inside of the handle held in there by a ring; press the side to pop out.

Key Features

  • Quick Release Head
  • Replaceable Sponge
  • 2-in-1 Plastic Brush + Sponge
  • Tongs in Handle

THE NEW ERA TRIPOD! All-In-One - Super Efficient & Revolutionary!!!


THE NEW ERA TRIPOD! All-In-One - Super Efficient & Revolutionary!!!

PROBLEM: a tripod that is also a monopod, "glidecam/steadicam," crane, dolly, etc.
Why can't all these useful video/photography products be in one solution?


SOLUTION: All-In-One Tripod - tripod, monopod, "glidecam/steadicam," dolly, crane, etc.
It's easy the middle part of the tripod would come completely out of the "station" and be used as a monopod OR you can use it with the ball & socket handle with weights on the hook as a "glidecam/steadicam" OR you can swivel it on the ball & socket hinge as a crane OR you can use it as a tripod OR you can use it as a dolly OR you can use it as a dolly-crane

AT LEAST 6 EXTREMELY USEFUL VIDEO/PHOTOGRAPHY PRODUCTS IN ONE!
A sincerely revolutionary idea! The market place NEEDS this product!

Ventu Product Review


"'Ventu' Product - Strain And Serve"
What a beautiful product. The Ventu - probably not the coolest or sleekest of names but I guess it works...Ehhh - yea - whatever...anyway, the Ventu is this epic straining bowl that doubles as a serving bowl. What an awesome concept! It seems dumb to have both a straining bowl and a serving bowl...more dishes to wash - am I right?



Initially, I was hesitant about the Ventu Design - I was concerned about leaking water. Nonetheless, I didn't get to see a prototype in action! The design is definitely simple yet effective. I like that. Once they released the video of the prototype in action - I was on board!


The Ventu's price was a bit of a dilemma: $54.99. What a middle ground price, am I right? Sure it's a quality product. I agree. So here's the deal - either make it from plastic and sell it for $29.99 or keep these materials and jack up the price to $74.99! Determining the appropriate price is important - having a middle ground price for a product puts both sides on the fence! You have the high-end clients - thinking it's a cheap product - because the price isn't high enough - and the other side - saying, "Hey that's a little too high for my blood." Yea - middle ground pricing sucks!


The Ventu has amazing function - and definitely a lot of shelf use! I highly recommend this product! I would definitely purchase one for family members - (i.e.) Mother's Day, etc. Nonetheless, Quirky - figure out your pricing options - middle ground will get you no where...

Sudsi Product Review



"'Sudsi' Product - So Long Scum"
"So Long Scum" - hahahaha - I love that tag-line - so funnnnnnny! Peace out cannibals of mass destruction...The bathroom is a scary place, hahaha. Just kidding - but cleaning the bathroom is a pain. I have back issues - so it really, really frustrates me to clean the bath tub. You do a ton of bending over, which can really stir up trouble-areas in the back. The Sudsi was designed to help do cleaning at an easier distance: a more comfortable and natural distance.



The Sudsi Design is pretty gnarly! It's fun - it's easy - it's simple. This product will get the job done and promote a healthy body & bathroom! I really like the Design & the interchangeable heads: polish, scour, scrub. Awesome!


The Sudsi has a minor flaw. Not necessarily the price. Usually I'm all over the price - but I'm fine with the price...going for $69.99 - it's the electric function. What the crap! I feel like the electric function will be crap. If it were really high powered, then I'd be up for testing it out. But I know - I just know this is gonna be a crappy function and really take away from the quality of this product.


Personally, I don't think there is a need for the electric function. I think it's degrading. Take it out - drop the price to $49.99 and you have yourself a killer product! Prove me wrong Quirky, prove me wrong...
