Having lived in Canada in gorgeous cottage country on the Great Lakes and now in beautiful British Columbia, I’ve spent most of my life with the lush beauty of nature all around me.
Recently though I’ve found that every year is different. Sometimes it’s so wet and swampy in Spring, a wet year, no need to ever bring out a lawn sprinkler. Other years, like this one, an extreme heat wave in June! leaves plants withering and people feeling withered as well.
I love taking care of my household, whether that being home decorating, renovations, landscaping, and outdoor adventures at the cabin at the lake.
I’ve developed quite a knack for choosing the right appliance, tool or gadget. I’ve been a homeowner for over 40 years and I look around at the items I use and enjoy… a woodchipper, pressure washer, lawn tractor, ice maker, air purifier, kayak, tent, wifi booster, air conditioner, convection oven, dog kennel… Oh, I could go on and on!
In fact, I’ve become so enthralled with some of these “toys” that I created this website to share my tips, reviews, and ideas for using these variety of products in new and creative ways.
I am an experienced quality assurance inspector and government procurement advisor with over 30 years of experience.
I will be writing thorough, detailed reviews that truly help consumers.
I hope you’ll find some useful tips for using some of these great products in your own home and yard to add value and also save your hard earned money.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the information you find on this site.
Sincerely,
John West
