a great product for those without green thumbs
these are a wonderful starter for those who have no green thumbs, and i would also guess for those who have them.

just add water and they expand and allow the seeds to be covered.the greenhouse works great in an apartment..i can have it in the window and not have to worry about any drafts.

i am using it to make a small herb garden, and so far everything is growing well.its the first seeds ive ever planted that didnt die within the first week. ... Read more

perfect for rag quilting
the very best tool to use to complete the techniqueand look for the rag quilting seams,easy on wrist and perfect for avoiding the complications of repetitive motions associated with carpal tunnel syndrome. The spring action in the pruner works excellently when cutting thru several layers of fabric at a time,which in turn eases the human strengh to cut thru the fabric layers.
the shears shape and size are a perfect fit for being in control of fabric and shears,I ordere three pairs.

so-so
The blades are sharp and work well (one serrated and one smooth edge) and the handles are comfortable but these shears have a serious design flaw -- the locking mechanism (the little orange plastic rectangle in the picture) is supposed to slide down and grip the junction where the blades meet, thus locking them. Unfortunately, if you're pointing the shears downwards while cutting, it often slides down of it's own accord and locks the blades while you are trying to use them. You can remove the orange locking piece (it snaps on and off) but then you run the risk of losing it, forgetting where you put it, accidently stepping on it, etc.[...T]hese should have a more sophisticated and reliable locking device.

Exceptional!!
These snips do an excellent job around the garden, whether it'sdeadheading annuals, trimming out dead foliage from houseplants, or nippingoff a bit of catnip for the felines. The serrated blades are plenty strong,and are tapered towards the tip, which makes selecting the right stem tosnip just that much easier. The action of the handles is firm and smooth.An all- around excellent product. ... Read more
