I bought the countertop dishwasher because of your review, and I love mine! We have an old apartment without a built in dishwasher. It is really handy as we accumulate dishes throughout the whole day, run it while we sleep, and we wake up to clean dishes. I highly recommend it! We especially love the built in water tank as our faucet would be incompatible with all other countertop dishwashers.
@@MUHerd37 oh, ok. I live in Lincoln. Saw your name. I moved here in 1993 from Columbus Ohio. Buckeye country lol. Or as I called them, the suckeyes lol.
I bought a countertop dishwasher when I got my first stimulus check. That has pretty much saved my relationship as we live in a tiny studio & my disabilities have been getting worse. Speaking of disabilities, the umbrella hat would be helpful for people that are using walkers. I ended up getting a big rain poncho for me, but I still shy away from going out on rainy days.
I still have the ID Police I won from you off Twitter. I don't use it for anything other than pill bottles; I figure everything else is better off shredded.
I also bought this countertop dishwasher for my office after seeing your original review. It’s a little small and doesn’t hold much, but it works well and beats having co-workers leaving their dishes in the sink and forget to come back and wash them.
I bought the magnetic phone charging cables because of your video on them, and I still use them every day! They have been such a game changer, letting me charge all of my various devices with just one cable, and easily being able to connect/disconnect over and over again without fear of wearing down the charge port, which has been the death sentence of most of my phones
I'm not so sure about that tbh.... My countertop dishwasher is great in my apartment but doesn't fit on my countertop so I have it on a wheeled stand thing so I can use it easily in my galley kitchen. With space being limited in an RV I don't know if the space needed for it would be a worth it price to pay for the convenience....
@@KB3TLR Good info, thank you! Yes countertop space is limited. And it would be a pain to carry it in and out to set it on an outside table. We have the outside hookups and all, but that would be more work than simply handwashing them lol
@@debbierhode6291 yeah. If I was living in rv 24/7 I would find a way to make it work, sacrifice some cabinet or something but if it's just for vacations it is just easier to do by hand. But who knows I'd check into rv countertop dishwasher maybe they've made one that fits idk... If I had shopped around I may have found one that fit on my counter under my cabinet and that would've worked out perfect but what I have now works ok I guess for an apartment
I bought a faberware countertop dishwasher after watching your review. I'd been looking at them for awhile and was skeptical. I love it. We live in an apt without a dishwasher and it's worked out great. I've had it a full year and it's still running good. I would never have bought it without your review. I trust your reviews more than any other channel.
GREAT video brother, I did buy the USB type C magnetic inserts and still use them to this day, they work FLAWLESSLY. I absolutely LOVE your channel, keep the hits.... and miss's coming. You're doing the public a great service Sir 👍👍
I bought the bluetooth sleep headband after i watched this episode. I have been looking for a comfortable one for years! Once i got it in the mail, i used it. Funny thing is, it seems like the speakers don't hit the ears and others would hear what you are listening to, but no one hears what you do...at all. I tested it with my husband and you hear nothing on the outside, only the person wearing it hears the sound. It is super, SUPER comfortable, and i have actually slept with it all night without discomfort. I love it! Thank you so much for adding this into your one year update reviews.
Thank you again for the review of ReaderRest. Now have three and I haven't lost my glasses since the first ones. Am still looking for a brick and mortar store selling self stiring mugs.
If the ID Police product used an indelible ink, and a different pattern on the stamping surface, it would be gold. They made some nonsensical cost-saving decisions in my estimation.
I bought a Farberware brand countertop dishwasher last November for my studio apartment. I absolutely love it, outside of the spotty drying function. Pro tip for anyone that has one: use a funnel when pouring in the water. You can do it quicker without getting water everywhere.
The main thing I noticed with the Ambervision type glasses (not original ones, but some fake type) was that it was very hard to see stoplights with them, so did not dare wear them driving, or at least had to lift them up to see the light. went back to a darker pair of normal ones shortly after for that.
I got that tovala oven after your review and have to say, I really like it and the food has all been great. For someone who lives alone without a lot of time to cook, works great for me.
I got the magnetic charging cables, as I use an android phone and a Kindle, which have different adapter ports. While the magnetic chargers do charge slower, I find not having to mess with 2 different types of charging cables much easier. The light-up feature is both a blessing and a bane, as they are BRIGHT at night and I usually have to hide the end in a dresser drawer as they light up and stay lit up when plugged in. The adapter pieces that go into your phone port do come out easily so if I need a faster charge for my phone, I can switch over to a C type cable. They've held up well over a year and I'm hoping for more advances in that field! Thank you for the reviews!
That's basically how I use them: anything that I need to charge at least weekly and doesn't support wireless charging, which is mostly micro USB devices for me.
One of the products here is one we use very often, even at work, and that's the soup mug. That product is amazing! It works really great for instant noodles too, hot water from the cooler at work, or out of the electric kettle here at home and about 4 minutes to sit and cook and you're ready to enjoy. It's so convenient to add the noodles, pour the water and just set it at my desk at work and keep right on working for a few minutes. Cleaning them is super easy too, just a quick rinse or even top rack of the dishwasher and they're like new again.
I wondered how those stretch lids would hold up. I have a feeling if you were using the stretch feature all the time they would eventually get loose. But I'm with you, I probably wouldn't even use that feature very often.
Somehow the stretch lids seems like a quintessential American product. Every container must be filled to the brim, or beyond. If your container is not filled to the maximum then it's partially empty. Can't have that! Yes, of course I do it.🙄
They get stretched out over time. My mom put the stretch lid in the dishwasher and it was never the same after too stretched out basically useless now ☹️
Have you seen the apartments in Japan? some of them define the term "efficiency". If you want a dishwasher in may of those places, The countertop version is about your only real option. There's just no room for a full sized one.
I’m always confused about how real the tech situation is in Japan. Because there’s def been a lot of videos to suggest that they’ve been living in the future with all these tech items but then the more you find out about average Japanese people they don’t seem to use them that often. Even heard about plenty of instances they’re technologically behind per se, like the graphic design of websites is fairly retro to an American
You should do a top 10 or top 5 video of what products your viewers have found usefull on a daily basis. Myself, I found that a Key Chain flash Light with USB charger to be the handiest little thing I use all the time. Being a third shift worker ist been super nice.
I realized that by following some cooking and reheating directions that I found in my microwave's user manual to cook many types of foods, I don't need no stinkin' gadgets! 😊 Just my everyday kitchen stuff. For baked potatoes, all I use is one plate and one fork. It takes only a few minutes and vóila. You may have to adjust cook times/temps depending on many things such as microwave wattage, portion size, etc.
With the microwavable vegetable steamer you need to cut all the vegetables the same size meaning that that squash needed to be thicker. I've used one for years and that works out perfectly. Not the same brand though.
I love those sleep bands so much! I bought cheap ones on Amazon and got two and they last me all the way through a 3 day camping trip. I play thunderstorm sounds on my phone to block out my friend's loud snoring and it doesn't even hurt my sensitive ears from pressing on them :)
Out of all of your gadgets and projects and ideas and whatnots and who's its and what's it's that you've covered for us!!! Thank you by the way. 😊 I don't care about any of that today. I want to know about Bailey. I hope your pooch is doing good James. And please sir, keep doing what you do!
I have a full size dishwasher in my apartment and haven't used it in a really long time. The little table top one would actually be better I think & I love the window.
7:50 That dongle you leave in there has exposed ends. Put your phone or tablet in something with metal and it can easily short the port. At best, it will damage the port. At worst, the battery will catch fire.
the port isn't always feeding power out. it has to negotiate with a device first before it would start sending any power. there isn't simply a direct lead from the port to the battery.
@@davedauria4782 It depends. Many devices (if not most) have power on the port at all times. Most power banks, for example, don't even have any data lines.
I have one of the larger countertop dishwashers and it works great. There is a defunct regular size builtin dishwasher in my house but I can’t remove it myself. It was too big for my needs so I bought the countertop type. Perfect size for me, hooks up to the faucet. It does take up a lot of room but if I don’t have to wash dishes, it’s a WIN. 😎🐈⬛❤️
I have the dip clips. I love them! I had a gathering and everybody who used one loved it too. I kept getting asked when where I got them, but it was only a couple months until Christmas 2021, so I claimed I didn't remember. All those who raved over then and wanted to know where I got them received a set, or two depending on the size of their household. I'm still getting thanks for those a year and one month later 😁
I remember watching these videos like it was yesterday. In fact, I was just thinking about a few of these products recently because I suddenly found use for them. I can’t believe a year has passed already
That Groove Belt is intuitive. I wish I'd thought of that. I use that belt that clicks as it locks (crap I forget the name). I like it because it's more adjustable than belts with holes.
Idk if anyone cares, but I found a video about how to cook corn and I'll never cook it any other way again. You throw the whole ear in the microwave. Husk and all. 4 mins per ear. (2 ears you go 8 mins. I usually do 2 for 8 but I have done 3 at 12 and it was ok too) then you take them out (with a pot holder cause they HOT) and cut through about an half inch- inch above the bottom of the stem side. Grab the top part and shake and wiggle the ear out and boom. Fully cooked ear of corn no shucking. I'll never shuck corn again. (Look up microwave ear of corn video for visual demo. No gadgets needed)
I use the soup mug as a snack cup for my husband. I mix his preferred small snacks (peanut M&Ms, craisins, Gardetto's original mix, etc.) and shake it up, and he takes that to work.
I love mine, have the same brand and model. I use it every day...I use an old graniteware Canning funnel that has a very high neck and place it on the top to fill the water. No mess and no splash. I also clean all water out of the unit daily. especially the puddled water when you remove the filter. Other wise the water can go stagnant. I have only used the Normal wash twice as the Speed setting does just a good of a job. I grow grapes and make tons of Concord grape jam so I use the Fruit Wash cycle a lot in the fall. I did find that using pods is Over Kill for this washer as they are made for a full size washer and can actually clog the counter top size. ... I switched to Gel instead and love it. Liquid just doesn't clean as well.
I use the music headband nightly, it not only means I can listen to sleep music without disturbing my husband and of course if muffles his snoring,I even watched your video using the headband LOL
The dishwasher is cool... can you share what brand and where you might get it. Whoever remodeled my place didn't put in a dishwasher, even though there was room. It's just me and the dogs, so would be perfect. Thx James!
Didn't know countertop dishwashers existed before seeing a couple reviews on RUclips. Yours and TechMoan's. Not sure who was first, but I got my own different brand countertop dishwasher and love it. The thing is life-changing. Also watched your review of toasters and it directly influenced my buying a toaster. The neat thing is I found one on sale at Ollie's for $10 and that thing blows away everything I saw in your video. Fast, consistent, and cheap. Just ignore how the plastic panels are not the same shade, how it feels like it is made from recycled Coke cans, and that $10 price that somehow still made a profit. Scary. But it makes great toast and your videos defined what I should want and expect and were a huge help. Sometimes a big part of product review is just that: defining what the product should do and how to tell if it does that, and you go to great effort to do that every single time. Thank you!
Bench top dishwashers have been around for years, at least 25 or more. They are just better with their water usage now, I have one and I like the option of having to put in water through the top.
I like the magnetic phone charger but I also run an SDR radio device on my phone so i'd have to keep taking out the plug to hook up the SDR. I'd like to try the self stirring mug because I like coffee and hot drinks. Tried the cool turtle and it didn't work for me.
I have never been a dishwasher-type person….well, I've _been_ the dishwasher, I guess I should say; but after washing so many bottles and sippy cups by hand, I am ready to have a dishwasher for the 2nd time in my life. [I had one in an apartment that I rented briefly but only used it less than a handful of times.] I've been looking at counter-top models but seeing this one in action tells me a lot more than reading reviews. 🤔🤔
I actually have a worktop dishwasher. It doesn't hold much. About one meals worth of pans, utilities and dishes. But have had it for ages now and with my cp i would much rather fill this that standup at the stink for ages. The soup mug I actually came across on amazon while i was looking for a hot lunch container that i could just thought in my bag full of probably last night's dinner. Still have it and I love it. Used it many times.
the countertop dishwasher is appealing. I cook a lot, so I've always got dishes to do, and I AM SICK of doing dishes by hand. My problem will be space. I don't have anywhere to keep it on the counter unless I get rid of my big microwave, and no place to store it when not in use. But I have this one under serious consideration. Other commenters seem to like it too!
Lol James’s favorite product in this video (which also made his top 10 list last year) is one that I HATE! I ordered one (expensive for a piece of plastic) and it sucks! It can never hold my phone correctly with or without a case and it constantly tips over and no angle is ever stable long enough to watch anything on my phone, that’s for sure. I feel I’d get more out of those dip clips lol.
I also found it funny James keeps it in his pocket when he uses it on airplanes...that's why I have an airplane/trip checklist lol... earplugs, phone holders, usb battery, comfy headphones, sim card tool, bubble gum to pop ears, eye shades, wipes, pens, dental floss/toothpick, socks, tshirt bags (collect garbage before/after "official collection", separate items especially wet or dirty, etc), gloves (for #2, mine or the kids), and probably a dozen more things I can't recall off the top of my head...
I love amber/orange tint sunglasses. They block all blue light to reduce eye strain and reduce sunlight intensity so it's much much more comfortable for all day driving. I like the retro style too so I wear them as Street glasses. I like blublocker more than ambervision but ambervision is slightly better for driving due to the gradient.
I know why you were dismissive of the burrito pop, but it looks like something I'd love! I hate when takeout burritos get soggy and drip through the wrappings -- this looks like a very practical product for someone like me if they clean easily. Also: Warner Robins is such a small community and is so far away from where you live: do you know someone from there or is that just a graphic tee using their name, mascot, and logo?
i have an aunt that has the countertop dishwasher and loves it, her condo kitchen is too small for a regular sized dishwasher so she got this since its just her.
Hey James! What is the story behind your Warner Robins Demons shirt? I live in Warner Robins and while I did not attend Warner Robins high school (went to HoCo instead), I am very familiar with the school. It was a little surreal seeing you wearing it!
C'mon, let's see some dog toy reviews! How about a review of the Hurrik9? It's a dog toy and you can feature Bailey! Spoiler alert, I have one and love it! Or a review of the Go-Dog-Go! It's an automatic tennis ball launcher.
The umbrella hat looks like it might be dangerous. A strong wind and you could end up pulling your neck or throttling yourself depending on how securely the straps fit.
I bought the countertop dishwasher because of your review, and I love mine! We have an old apartment without a built in dishwasher. It is really handy as we accumulate dishes throughout the whole day, run it while we sleep, and we wake up to clean dishes. I highly recommend it! We especially love the built in water tank as our faucet would be incompatible with all other countertop dishwashers.

These update videos just make me aware that an entire year has passed since I watched the original videos.

I also clean all water out of the unit daily. especially the puddled water when you remove the filter. Other wise the water can go stagnant. I have only used the Normal wash twice as the Speed setting does just a good of a job. I grow grapes and make tons of Concord grape jam so I use the Fruit Wash cycle a lot in the fall. I did find that using pods is Over Kill for this washer as they are made for a full size washer and can actually clog the counter top size. ... I switched to Gel instead and love it. Liquid just doesn't clean as well.
Thanks for all your hard work.
I would totally use the magnetic clip for my microphone when recording RUclips videos!
“Would you wear these in public?”
“Probably not”. 😂
I use the music headband nightly, it not only means I can listen to sleep music without disturbing my husband and of course if muffles his snoring,I even watched your video using the headband LOL
So many of these are what we used to call, “solutions in search of problems.“
It's freakin reviews time! 😃
Yeah, I'm all over that Self Stirring Mug ! Thanks for the review.
I really want that belt, but what is it actually called? Grew Belt? Groo Belt?
Check under Mail time 6 for the info.
After your review of the red soup mug I bought two those. I like it!
Never tried an umbrella to cover my bald head only a cap but after seeing your fashion statement I might give one a try 😳
I actually plan on getting a smaller dishwasher and this is one of the ones I have in mind
If you worked on a roof in the US southwest, I'm sure you would LOVE that funny looking umbrella hat.
Thank you, James, for the thumbnail of the athletic cup on your face. 😉
The dishwasher is cool... can you share what brand and where you might get it. Whoever remodeled my place didn't put in a dishwasher, even though there was room. It's just me and the dogs, so would be perfect. Thx James!
The link to it is in the description.
Thank you so much 💓
Aggressive dipping is tight!
Great stuff!
Didn't know countertop dishwashers existed before seeing a couple reviews on RUclips. Yours and TechMoan's. Not sure who was first, but I got my own different brand countertop dishwasher and love it. The thing is life-changing. Also watched your review of toasters and it directly influenced my buying a toaster. The neat thing is I found one on sale at Ollie's for $10 and that thing blows away everything I saw in your video. Fast, consistent, and cheap. Just ignore how the plastic panels are not the same shade, how it feels like it is made from recycled Coke cans, and that $10 price that somehow still made a profit. Scary. But it makes great toast and your videos defined what I should want and expect and were a huge help. Sometimes a big part of product review is just that: defining what the product should do and how to tell if it does that, and you go to great effort to do that every single time. Thank you!
Bench top dishwashers have been around for years, at least 25 or more. They are just better with their water usage now, I have one and I like the option of having to put in water through the top.
Those snap glasses look better on you than the steam punk ones imho
I use the readerest all the time to carry reading glasses.
I’ve try the cool turtle 🐢 I really enjoyed wearing it. Works for me. Enjoy your video.from Tucson, Az
"Aggressively Dipping" is the name of my next band.
I like the magnetic phone charger but I also run an SDR radio device on my phone so i'd have to keep taking out the plug to hook up the SDR.
I'd like to try the self stirring mug because I like coffee and hot drinks.
Tried the cool turtle and it didn't work for me.
I just started watching your videos, and you’re funny, made me laugh!
I have never been a dishwasher-type person….well, I've _been_ the dishwasher, I guess I should say; but after washing so many bottles and sippy cups by hand, I am ready to have a dishwasher for the 2nd time in my life. [I had one in an apartment that I rented briefly but only used it less than a handful of times.] I've been looking at counter-top models but seeing this one in action tells me a lot more than reading reviews. 🤔🤔
I actually have a worktop dishwasher. It doesn't hold much. About one meals worth of pans, utilities and dishes. But have had it for ages now and with my cp i would much rather fill this that standup at the stink for ages. The soup mug I actually came across on amazon while i was looking for a hot lunch container that i could just thought in my bag full of probably last night's dinner. Still have it and I love it. Used it many times.
U have my hometown team on ur shirt… Cool that ur representing WAR TOWN DEMONS!!
I've got 2 very similar products to the soup mug. I use it to cook veges in the microwave and for heating. They are great
the countertop dishwasher is appealing. I cook a lot, so I've always got dishes to do, and I AM SICK of doing dishes by hand. My problem will be space. I don't have anywhere to keep it on the counter unless I get rid of my big microwave, and no place to store it when not in use. But I have this one under serious consideration. Other commenters seem to like it too!
3:40 The Book of Lists! I have all of those books. As well as The Peoples Almanac series.
Lol James’s favorite product in this video (which also made his top 10 list last year) is one that I HATE! I ordered one (expensive for a piece of plastic) and it sucks! It can never hold my phone correctly with or without a case and it constantly tips over and no angle is ever stable long enough to watch anything on my phone, that’s for sure. I feel I’d get more out of those dip clips lol.
I also found it funny James keeps it in his pocket when he uses it on airplanes...that's why I have an airplane/trip checklist lol... earplugs, phone holders, usb battery, comfy headphones, sim card tool, bubble gum to pop ears, eye shades, wipes, pens, dental floss/toothpick, socks, tshirt bags (collect garbage before/after "official collection", separate items especially wet or dirty, etc), gloves (for #2, mine or the kids), and probably a dozen more things I can't recall off the top of my head...
I love amber/orange tint sunglasses. They block all blue light to reduce eye strain and reduce sunlight intensity so it's much much more comfortable for all day driving. I like the retro style too so I wear them as Street glasses. I like blublocker more than ambervision but ambervision is slightly better for driving due to the gradient.
I know why you were dismissive of the burrito pop, but it looks like something I'd love! I hate when takeout burritos get soggy and drip through the wrappings -- this looks like a very practical product for someone like me if they clean easily.
Also: Warner Robins is such a small community and is so far away from where you live: do you know someone from there or is that just a graphic tee using their name, mascot, and logo?
Nice to see a new post! I'll take the burrito dohickey off your hands XD
When you said “4 packets of ketchup” I thought of Frankenstein in Big Daddy when he ordered “30 packets of ketchup”
I have a instant soup cup but not as big. Love mine.i would have taken the burrito gadget. That is so cool.
The only bad thing about ink things like is police, anything alcohol based will remove the ink pretty fast.. also with a sharpie marker
i have an aunt that has the countertop dishwasher and loves it, her condo kitchen is too small for a regular sized dishwasher so she got this since its just her.
Had 2 self stirring mugs that you said worked died after about 6 months, even replaced the batteries and still did not work.
Unrelated to products, how’d you get that shirt? Where my wife is from. Love the videos.
Love the update videos
Love the videos!
The counter top dish washer you could do all those items it will hold in 15 minutes in the sink without the cost.
That’s what I’m thinking, it looks to hold 4 plates.
But that's no fun.
Hey James! What is the story behind your Warner Robins Demons shirt? I live in Warner Robins and while I did not attend Warner Robins high school (went to HoCo instead), I am very familiar with the school. It was a little surreal seeing you wearing it!
I graduated from WRHS. Couldn’t believe the shirt when I saw it!
Tried those Ambervision sunglasses years ago, when they came out. Couldn't stand the horrible color of them. They're like there's been a nuclear war.
Wow a lot of these feel like you did them like 4 months ago 😂 how has it been a year?!
C'mon, let's see some dog toy reviews!
How about a review of the Hurrik9? It's a dog toy and you can feature Bailey!
Spoiler alert, I have one and love it!
Or a review of the Go-Dog-Go! It's an automatic tennis ball launcher.
Are umbrella hats good? I’ve thought about buying one for work
The Dutch have worn them for decades! They’re vey practical.
The umbrella hat looks like it might be dangerous. A strong wind and you could end up pulling your neck or throttling yourself depending on how securely the straps fit.
