Watering Made Easy Combo Sprinkler Pack



Watering Made Easy Combo Sprinkler Pack (2 Original and 1 Junior) #K44

3-pack - Sprinkler Stations - (2) Original + (1) Jr. A Watering Made Easy Sprinkler Station is a lawn sprinkler that stops the cycle of placing, aiming, re-aiming and moving the sprinkler to mow. A Sprinkler Station hides underground between uses, and pop-ups aimed perfectly every time you click on your garden hose. Easy to install; there are no trenches and pipe to bury, just dig a 10" hole for the sprinkler and aim it one time. The included quick connector means no screwing the hose onto the sprinkler, just click it on. Additionally, there is no reason to kink a dripping hose while you walk to the sprinkler or walk back and forth to the spigot after you walk to the lawn. The Quick Connector is also an automatic shut-off valve, so the water does not flow when you walk to the sprinkler, even with the water on! As soon as you click it onto the sprinkler, the water automatically flows and the sprinkler pops up and waters. Sprinkler Stations are a permanent, sensible solution that adds value to your life and home.

Scotts 20-Inch Push Reel Mower

Scotts 20-Inch Push Reel Mower #2000-20

The Scott's classic reel mower is light, maneuverable, and economical. The business end of this push reel mower is solid, sharp, and everything a reel mower should be, with five heat-treated, knife-sharp steel blades that can be adjusted for nine grass heights with very easy wheel tabs. With its 10-inch wheels, radial tires, and 20-inch cutting width, this mower should enable you to cross whatever terrain and reach whatever hard-to-access rogue patches of grass you desire. There's no soft cushion on the handle, which is too bad, but otherwise, the Scotts Classic is a durable, well-constructed, simple device.

I just eagerly put my reel mower together, having spent much time researching whether I should get one or not. The reviews on here were especially helpful. In short, I'm glad I bought it.

Pluses:
1. Safer: no flying rocks or other projectiles, your kids won't sneak up on you and get extremities caught in the blade the way they do with gas mowers. As an ED physician, this is an especially important observation that I don't think had been pointed out before.
2. Quieter: my neighbors are thankful, as are my ears
3. No smoke, no gas fumes
4. Easier handling than gas mower, lighter, can get in crevices more easily and safely
5. Better for environment, save on gas, oil.
6. Easier to start-up; I'm more likely to cut the grass with this mower
7. Doesn't take any longer to mow then lawn vs. a gas mower (and if you gas mower is finicky, will probably be faster).

DeWalt DW2163 37 Piece Screwdriving and Nutdriving Set



DeWalt DW2163 37 Piece Screwdriving and Nutdriving Set in Plastic Case

Like its 21-piece cousin, the focus of the DeWALT DW2163 37-Piece Screwdriving Set in Tough Case is durability. These heat-treated bits are made to withstand a beating, and their superior hardness provides higher torque and driving power. Moreover, the tips are designed to minimize the ever-frustrating hassle of stripping. The noteworthy difference between the two is that you get a Compact Magnetic Drive Guide with the 37-piece set, which will help you minimize wobbling and slipping. For users who need durability, the DW2163 is a good pick.
