Blackstone Signature Griddle Accessories, Restaurant Grade, 2 Spatulas, 1 Chopper Scraper, 2 Bottles, FREE Recipe Book, 5 Piece Tool Kit for BBQ Grill, great for Flat Top Cooking, Camping and Tailgating

A great overall set with everything you need to get you started with a new griddle. The 2 spatulas are big enough to stay put on the griddle; I think the handles are just long enough. Any longer and they'll become too unwieldy, especially when cooking on a smaller griddle. They're big enough to move a lot of food but you may also want to consider a wider one (to flip burgers, etc...). I like the fact they're hard plastic, won't get too hot and hopefully won't split like wood after repeated washings. The shorter scraper is thicker steel and works well to clean things up at the end. I guess it can also be used to cut things directly on the griddle, like onions, but haven't tried that yet. The bottles are just that, 2 squirt bottles, nice to have for oil and water. Set also comes with a brief "cookbook" with a few griddle recipes.

I read some reviews that said they were flimsy and it almost made me not purchase this item... I open mine up and they're not flimsy they're just not solid like a rock... That's exactly what I wanted...(a little flex)... They seem well balance in my hand... I own the 17" Blackstone tabletop griddle n these work excellent...

I love my scraper and spatulas! I cook several times a week on my outdoor griddle and these are great, heavy duty accessories. Be sure to keep the bottles away from the edge of the griddle or they might melt. (Also, keep your beer away or it will get warm!).

These are easy to clean, made of very thick materials to allow for easy scraping, and a must have for the owner of any outdoor griddle.

Just bought the Blackstone 36 inch Outdoor Flat Top griddle, BBQ Tool Kit and the Grill Top Accessory from Amazon. Got it all today and put together in about an hour and it is truly amazing and better than I expected. Easy to put together and excellent quality. I love it when you can find great USA made products!

This is a nice set to go with my recently ordered 36" Blackstone griddle top. The spatulas are of good quality, actually, all the products are good quality. I've made like 40 pounds + of taco meat and warmed tortillas so far and everything is holding up nicely!

The shipping was through Amazon Prime, so on time and as expected, as usual!

Description

The Blackstone Griddle Kit offers 2 Liquid Dispensers, 2 Professional Grade Spatulas, 1 Chopper Scrapper and a Blackstone Introductory Griddle Cook Book. Step up your backyard cooking game and add the tools needed to make it the most enjoyable experience possible. This kit has everything you need to get going. Use the included cook book for inspiration or new recipes .



Purchased this griddle kit after acquiring the 28" Blackstone griddle. The spatulas are excellent, with just the right amount of flex (in my opinion) and they are long enough to keep your hands / arms away from the hot griddle surface. Also enjoy using the squeeze bottles and have purchased a couple extra for variety of cooking oils and water. My only complaint would be the scraper ... works perfects for cleaning debris from the griddle top, just a bit short on the handle length which brings your hands too close to the griddle surface if its still hot.

Priced seemed a little high, but why buy a flat top grill if you can't pretend to be a chef like you see at Benihana. I searched for other cheaper options but this seemed to be the best deal for the money. Honestly though very good construction seems to be built to last very happy, great addition for the flat top grill owners.

These are well made with a well thought out design. The spatulas balance on the griddle, or any flat surface, without tipping which keeps the handles clean and at the ready. The tools are strong enough to flatten sausage patties, burgers, etc. while also being thin enough to easily slide under things to get a "clean flip". The scraper is a must-have as it gets any grime the spatulas couldn't scrape loose right off the surface. The oil bottles have held oils better than expected with nary a leak after a summer and fall of use.

Really like these, even though I don't own a blackstone (use Camp Chef). These were a great value, so I chose them over Camp Chef and several other brands. I sharpened the three edges of one of them, nearly to a knife edge, and get clean release of meats (smash burgers!) from the griddle every time. The edge holds well and has not mushroomed - so these are great if you intend to sharpen them.

What a difference it makes to use high quality tools. I've been fiddling around with cheap griddle tools since spring... no more! The griddle scraper and long spatula make cooking a batch of burgers almost fun again.

KOOLORBS Makeup 21 Led Vanity Mirror with Lights, 1x 2x 3x Magnification, Touch Screen Switch, 180 Degree Rotation, Dual Power Supply, Portable Trifold Makeup Mirror, White

I really like my mirror, it's not heavy so if I need to hold it while doing my makeup I can, I love that there are different mirrors and that I can actually put it on a angle and there are different light settings.

I was worried when I place the order since this one is plastic and looks not as durable as the metal LED mirror. But I want the magnification so I decided to give it a try. I feel awsome I finally chose this product. The outside frame is so thick and looks like as a heavy duty one. I dropped the mirror to the bathroom tile floor by accident yesterday, but there is no damage at all !!! Good price with good quality!!!

I love this mirror! The light settings are perfect since you can adjust the brightness. A perfect sized mirror - not too big or small. You can reference the cetaphil lotion. You're able to close it and save alot of room if you're storing it like me when not needed or just pushing it to side. Highly recommend!

I have a love hate relationship with this mirror.
Hate:
The cord is too short.
The magnifying mirrors aren’t lit.
It’s base is very light weight.
Love:
Recharging via USB
Can be used with batteries.
Base holds cosmetics.
Folds when not in use.
Sturdy.
Multiple magnifying.
Portable.

I put my 20x suction cup magnifying mirror on the main mirror for plucking. I feel like this mirror is more of an interim mirror and not a vanity statement piece like my previous mirror. With that said, it’s doing it job just fine.

Exactly what I wanted.

The mirror is really nice. It’s light and really easy to use. My only problem was that there were some marks on the corners and the base.

I really like this mirror. I was concern that it might be too small. It's perfect for me. I wanted it to be big enough so I can also use it when I curl my hair. The USB cord is too short but I plug it in my battery back it works great. I haven't tried batteries yet. It's bright enough for me. I can see all my pores. It's light weight. Made of plastic. Not sure how durable it will be so I kept the bubble plastic it came with for when I travel. For the price and for what I needed it for I recommend this product. I have nothing to compare it too just read tons of reviews. I compared it to other products in Amazon but it came down to deciding if I needed the magnifying mirror option. Im not used to the magnifying mirrors when I do my make up. But it great for plucking eyebrows!

Got this for my daughter. She’s been asking for a lighted mirror for her room and this is perfect. It folds up slim and the lighting is adjustable. It can run on battery or via USB cord (which it comes with). Super easy and fast to assemble. Mirror quality is good. Left side is broken into 2 quadrants (helpful when you’re doing eye makeup and lipstick). I can’t wait to give this to her, she is going to be ectastic!

Exactly what I was looking for! It's amazing!
I bought this mirror for myself so I could do makeup even in areas of bad lighting. The mirror itself is really well made and works perfect to apply makeup.

This mirror is perfect for your dresser or nightstand. The led light has various brightness settings for your needs. The mirror is well constructed and feels very durable. My wife loves it.

Prextex Christmas 100 Clear White Wire Light Set Christmas Decorations

Prextex Christmas 100 Clear White Wire Light Set Christmas Decorations

Prextex Christmas 100 Clear White Wire Light Set Christmas Decorations

These are nice lights. They cast a warm glow and are working well for what I needed them for. Purchased two strands to run under the eaves of my chicken coop so that I could have lighting out there. They aren’t so bright to disrupt my hens but light enough that I can easily make it to the coop to lock up the ladies at night.

Nice lights , I used for Christmas decorations. It emits yellow lights and the string is white in color. Looks as shown in the product feature and picture

I bought 4 sets of lights to string around my patio - 3 of the 4 worked well and one didn't. I received an email from the seller asking about my experience and I responded honestly! To my complete delight I received a replacement right away - with a bonus box. Now, that's something I'd do as a business owner. Thanks much.

Love, Love, Love these clear white lights!!!
We have 3 strands in our living room year round (not just for Christmas time folks!).
They give off the perfect amount of light without having to use any other source of lighting!
We are very happy with them!!!

Love these beautiful lights! I had to buy replacements for the last string of white lights I had that burned out. The covering for the last string of lights I had was green, so I appreciate that these are white lights that also have white coverings on the wires. Allows for more versatile decorating. I have them up in the living room surrounding the front window. Gives a nice relaxing glow to the room at night. The wire took a couple days to relax and stretch out, so I've been able to cover more of the window edge as time has gone on. Highly recommend these!

Christmas Lights 100 Count Clear String To String Light Set



Product was reasonably priced and arrived super fast! I put them up in my little kitchen bay window and they make the blue glass pieces in the window look amazing. When I go in the kitchen at night and see the lights, it makes me happy! The lights were easy to work with and I will order again when these eventually burn out.

These were exactly what I was looking for!!! I wanted white lights that were actually more white than "warm white" (aka yellow) and that's exactly what these are!! I got 2 boxes to hang in my room and they fit the space I wanted perfectly. They work really will with Command outdoor light clips, I think they're a little too thick for the standard decorating clips. I've never written a review before but I'm so happy with my purchase (and the price) that I had to!! Definitely recommend for indoor use!!

There are a lot of choices and options for Christmas lights. These are exactly what I was looking for. I wanted clear white lights to put up around my living room to give subtle lighting. If you are looking for clear white lights like these, I strongly recommend these.

I bought these for our Christmas tree and they are simply beautiful! What I really liked also was that the owner of this company contacted me once I ordered them just to ask if I liked them and thanked me for ordering from them as they are a small company. I told them i would leave a review once I used them so that is what I'm doing here. You will not be sorry in ordering these lights and I wish more people would take care of these "smaller" business owners. They deserve our business.

These lights arrived on time and work just as expected. No broken bulbs or anything. The bulbs are nice and bright. They also do not get too hot, so we are able to leave them on for long periods of time. They were easy to hang with tape.

We are currently using them inside, so I can't speak to how well they would do in the cold.

GDEAER TS11 4 Pack 16.4 Feet 50 Led Fairy Lights Battery Operated with Remote Control Timer Waterproof Copper Wire Twinkle String Lights for Bedroom Indoor Outdoor Wedding Dorm Decor Warm White

 **Update** These were perfect for the barn wedding!! Wish I took pictures, but my cellphone stayed in my handbag all through the wedding, so I never took any pictures!! :( I have however, attached a video that I took of the fairy lights when they arrived from the merchant. I have attached it so you can see the different motion options.

Bought these fairy lights to use at my son's upcoming wedding in June. They arrived quickly. I like the battery compartment on these lights better than other fairy light sets I have purchased. These compartments are way easier to open and snap securely closed. I put in the required 3 AA batteries and pressed the button to change the modes. The back of the battery compartment lists the modes in their perspective order of sequence, and the remote included, has buttons that coincide with the list on the back of the battery compartment. Awesome!! I didn't unwind the light sets yet, because I didn't want to bother with wrapping them back up, so I cannot verify they are indeed 16.4 feet in length. Sorry, but it's a 4 pack set, and all sets appear to work perfectly. In addition to the 8 different modes, you can also dim them! The battery compartment measures 2.5 X 3. It appears to be very sturdy and looks like it would keep water out when used outside. Also has a loop at the top to possibly hook it onto something. All and all I'm happy with this purchase. I will update my review after the wedding. I would recommend purchasing from this seller. :)

UPDATE: The company contacted me after my review. The provided me 4 new units free of charge. They shipped it out immediately and I received it shortly after I posted this review. I tested all units, and call four work great. All units are fully put together. All remotes also work, and the new remotes work on the 2 old units that do work. Great customer service and it was easy to speak with them, explain what went wrong, and for them to fix the errors. I would recommend because these are a no-risk product; if they don't work, the company will back you up!

ORIGINAL:One did not work at all because it did not have all the parts in the battery box--SEE PHOTOS. One of them keeps shutting off and acting weird; it randomly just shuts off sometimes. I have tried switching batteries and nothing appears to affect it. The other two WORK GREAT. Excellent patterns and options, I really like them.

But given that one was inoperable from the start, and the other does not stay on--HALF of my order is defective and I cannot recommend this product. I purchased this as a "lightening deal" and I am wondering if, given the high volume of product being sold and made, that the quality was affected because other people seem to not be having problems with theirs like I am!

We used these to decorate our van for a Ragnar overnight relay. They were perfect! Lightweight, so easy to attach to the outside of the van using small strips of duct tape. We kept the battery compartments in the van and ran the lights though the window to the outside.

They were cheerful, bright, and after being on for more than 24 hours, they were still going strong at the end of the relay. They didn't seem to mind the rain on the way home. Can speak to long-term durability yet, but they worked great for us.

I originally wanted outdoor pillar candles for three lanterns but I wasn't satisfied with the fake Halloween-orange color they all seem to have. I bought these as a replacement and I am very happy with the result!

Even if I only get one season out of them, the price cannot be beat. I don't love every setting (some flashing options are way too fast for me) but the steady on and twinkling options are nice. The remote is convenient and easy to use, and I'm hoping the gasket in the battery pack will keep the batteries dry. We actually had a major downpour before and the lights worked just fine.

I think they look even better in person than in my pictures, but you can get an idea of how they look during different times of the evening. They are a pretty warm color and are a little less yellow than my pictures show.

These are really neat lights. I've never seen lights on copper wire before and they worked perfectly for what I wanted. I put them on a 3-foot tall, artificial evergreens for the front of our home. I've attached a picture. I do have two complaints: 1) they come with a remote, but there is no instructions on pairing the remotes (there are 4 remotes - one for each string of lights), but I have no idea how to pair them and when one works, it only works for a little bit and then the remote doesn't work any more. 2) in order to get the lights to stay on vs. blinking, you have to click the button 8 times. It's just a bit of a pain. If you put these lights in a place where the control box isn't easy to access, the remote is critical. Mine are easily accessible, so the remotes aren't needed. By the way, the remotes come with their own batteries, but the control boxes require 3 AA each (for each string).

I purchased these to string them up the posts of my patio gazebo. They work well for this purpose and I appreciate that one remote can control all 4 strings. I deducted one star because the item photo is deceptive, the strings of lights are very tiny and the photo is clearly depicting 8 strings or so, rather than the 4 you receive. I had hoped for more total lights per string based on the photo, but am still overall pleased with the purchase. It has not yet rained so I can’t definitively speak to how waterproof they are but the battery cases seem very secure and I feel it is likely they will remain waterproof.

Edit 10/28/18: after months outside in the savage Texas summer, these have survived beautifully. They are indeed fully waterproof, even during torrential downpour that spans several days. They’ve survived the unforgiving summer sun and heat without any detriment as far as I can tell. I’m really happy with them!

I will use these along with Stainless Steel Laundry Clothesline Hanging Rack - Compact Round Model Will Dry Clothing Anywhere and Includes Set of 18 Clothespins by Pro Chef Kitchen Tools For over the table at our camping property. I only used one string may use more depending on how it looks at camp.

I love the lights I wanted to use them as table centerpieces I wasn't sure wether I would use these or the cheaper ones with the button batteries so I got both. While the battery pack is bigger and a little harder to bury in the glass pieces (see pic) I wrapped the pack with the lights and then burryied it so it makes it difficult to see the pack. I got a little larger vase at the dollar store and I think that is a little better. The lights in the right hand vase and in the flowers are the one with the button batteries (these seemed a little wonky when I moved them around so I was worried if they would last as long as I needed them to, so I left them on overnight and they were still working the next day)
I opted to go with the more expensive lights that use the remote control, which will control more than one light set at a time and have different settings #2 has a nice little twinkle to it. I think that I will use these more after the centerpieces. I will use behind pictures, the TV and on bookshelves. My Daughter has already said that she wants some to take to her dorm room. It will be cheaper and easier to replace with the AA batteries and reuse. And really the being able to turn of and on with the remote is so useful.

These lights are amazing!! They are incredibly bright and a lot of fun! Currently, I have two sets attached to my wrist weights that I use when walking (it had to figure out how to attach them and that's a whole nother story!) and have been stopped several times by other walkers/joggers who wanted to know where I got the really bright lights. The batteries last a long time (so far, around 8 hours and they're still going strong) and since I use rechargeable batteries (purchased here at Amazon!), the cost is negligible. The only caveat is that you need to be careful with these lights if you have a cat! Our cat seems to like to chew the strand but the amazing thing is that on one of the strings, she chewed off two sections and... THEY STILL WORK!! Amazing!!
These are well worth the money... buy them!!

These are so perfect for a little added ambiance but also for holiday decoration. They are super tiny but actually really long. The copper wire is great for manipulating them into pretty much any shape you want and attaching them to things, but it can also get tangled kinda easy. They have a timer setting which is awesome so the batteries don't drain if you forget to turn them off. Love that they come with remotes too. Nice soft glow, sooo many options. One of my favorite purchases.

Brightech Ambience Pro - Waterproof Outdoor String Lights - Hanging Vintage 11W Edison Bulbs - 48 Ft Bistro Lights Create Great Ambience in Your Backyard, Gazebo

These lights are definitely commercial grade. I ran two galvanized wires from my house to fence about 22' apart and ran the lights back and forth with zip ties. It worked perfectly,

These lights are so pretty. I love the high end industrial look. The cable is heavy duty and I expect will survive the elements for a very long time. The lights do not appear to be cheaply made and have a pretty thick and heavy cable. Take tist into consideration when stringing your lights as you'll need to ensure they are properly anchored to support the weight. We used black zip ties on either side of each light bulb 'bracket' to keep the lights from sagging, rather than connecting them at the loop above each light. This is going to keep them in place on the stainless steel braided wire that we bought from our local home improvement store. It took more time to do this, but I guarantee it will be worth it in the long run. I am going to live in my backyard this spring and summer because it is so lovely with these lights. They emit the perfect lighting for al fresco dining and summer BBQ's.

These definitely have a commercial feel to them. I joined two strands over my deck. It took a bit to figure out the best way to connect them; but I went from tree to house to tree etc. A friend helped string wire, attach springs on each end and put pulley system to the tree. On the house we used eye hooks.

Hopefully, the pictures below are helpful to anyone wanting to do the same. It looks awesome at night. I put the whole thing on a wireless switch. This was a great project.

Don't put the lights in until you have your line ready or you will end up with broken bulbs (whoops!).

Thanks for giving me a like to this review if you found it helpful.

These lights are exactly as advertised and are really pretty. I bought two strands to zigzag over a 12x10 area and they're just about right - I was a little concerned that the 3 foot spacing in between bulbs would look skimpy, but they provide great ambient light and look just right as a canopy about 9' overhead.

Be warned that they're not joking around about these being heavy duty - they're much, much heavier than cheap party light strings, too heavy to hang under their own weight for any span longer than four or five feet. You MUST suspend them from tensioned and anchored wires and spread the load across truss wires if you're doing a canopy - no zigzagging overhead over a wide unsupported span.

4 stars because each strand had one or two bulbs that were already broken in the box; at only 15 bulbs each that's disappointing.

Great Lights! We debated between these and the Vintage version with the larger bulbs. I'm sure the Vintage look really cool, but I think we made the right choice. These are considerably less expensive, the bulbs are still good size and look nice lit up, and they use significantly less energy (165 vs. 600 watts for the Vintage strand). And because of the lower wattage, dimmer options are much less expensive too; there seems to be a real price jump once you need to get over a 500 watt capacity on your dimmer. I would definitely recommend putting them on a dimmer too. They are nice and bright on full power, but it's great to be able to draw them down to even just a firefly glowing filament.

Also of note, I contacted the company to ask about stringing them, and whether they could be damaged by being strung without a support wire. They said "The strand can be installed without support but we just recommend using support to avoid hang." We hung ours, unsupported, with one attachment point mid-way between the ends of the cord. They run from an attachment on our porch to a tree mid-way, then make a turn and head to the peak of an outbuilding. Lights up the yard wonderfully.

The Toughest Weatherproof Outdoor Lights

Brightech's Ambience Pro Outdoor Lights feature WeatherTite technology, which means we built the wire with extra protection levels. We also wrapped it in a strong rubber casing of premium quality construction, so our strands will hold up to the harshest weather conditions. WeatherTite makes our product last much longer compared to lesser quality lights available. Our light strands are well insulated so you can leave them outside all year long, even during bitter cold winters. Rain will fall and wind will blow, yet these heavy-duty weatherproof light sockets are strong enough to withstand the wear and tear of outdoor use year after year.

The included 11 watt bulbs (165 watts total) are bright enough to enjoy an outdoor meal. Satisfied customers say the gently swaying bulbs look reminiscent of falling stars. Tether up to 8 strands together with nothing needed to connect additional sets. Lights can be attached to a dimmer switch for greater lighting effect versatility. Recommended for use in arbors or other open air spaces for festive occasions, garden parties, weddings, winter holiday & Christmas events, indoor use, or city rooftops.

Don't Staple Your Shirt To The House Like Clark Griswold!

The length of our cord (choose 24 foot or 48 foot) lets you arrange strands in a variety of patterns or clusters via zip ties. For installation, we recommend a 16-gauge guide-wire and then affixing the lights every 3 or 4 to the guide-wire, or anchor the heavy-duty strand with cup hooks into material that can support the weight. To stage a canopy, we strongly suggest you suspend strands from tensioned and anchored wires while spreading the load across truss wires. Not recommended for a trellis or for combining with paper lanterns. Power the lights via 110v plug-in outlets, not designed for 220v outlet use.

These worked great in our covered porch. The product is heavy duty and came supplied with 16 bulbs (one spare), fortunately for me I did not have any broken bulbs as in other reviews I've read. This string of lights worked great as a part of my project where I added Ball mason jars as the globes.

It wasn't an issue for me but the product description here states that the lights are "a generous 3 feet of spacing in between each socket" which was inaccurate, the product I received the spacing was at 30" between each socket.

The party feeling is on at our house. Love the feeling of walking out on our deck now, and my husband is enjoying being able to control the lights from his lounge chair while watching TV. Also makes it more visible at night for him to walk down four steps to take our poodle out to do her business, then push a button when he sets back down. Yeah, he smiles! Well worth the cost to have more security and safety at night.
Simple to set up, arrives quickly, be sure to order the hooks/my husband used copper screws, he found this easier. Oh, and the remote control too, cause you wanna smile. We are seniors or I would know how to put a pic on here for you to see. We have a deck with a wood shack roof and farm look white painted seeling, we measured and the lights fit exactly the length of the deck, but not the sides (still plenty of light) the lights hang down from a cedar board trim. My husband was a builder and he said the lights have to hang on the inside, not the outside of the deck and he was right, and the lights still light up the backyard. Wish we had done this years ago. So Happy, if you couldn't tell.

I was skeptical about these at first. I questioned the brightness of them and so forth. So let me tell you a story.

So I had a 10x20 booth at a food festival. And lighting the booth was a requirement especially when serving food. So we went to the event first thing in the morning to setup. Event went from noon to 10pm.

Just in case it wasn't Bright enough. I did go to Wal-Mart and buy a bunch of high wattage bulbs. Night fall came around and our booth was so brightly lite that I ended up returning the other bulbs the next day.

Everything was well lite with a nice warm ambience. We had chairs in our booth and everyone came by just to sit down and chill in our booth. They said it was relaxing. Lights were on all day from noon to 10pm nonstop just to see how durableit was.

Bulbs seem to seal the sockets when you screw them in so rain most likely won't be an issue it seems if used let's say a backyard setting. I might just pick up another one of these and put it in my backyard

I can’t say anything that hasn’t already been said in all of he other 5 star reviews, I’ll jus add some photos of how I installed them. Recommend using 1/8” stainless steel cable (Home Depot $40/125’) and turnbuckles (Amazon $20/6 pack). Use extra clamps and a wire loop along the way to make a positive stop on the cable as tie wraps alone won’t keep the lights from sliding.

We bought these for our large pergola outdoor bamboo patio.I do want to mention that it is not completely covered, therefore, does get access to lots of rain...and these lights have held up so great. These lights far exceeded our expectations. Very easy installation, high quality, and perfect brightness. We have left them on for days at a time and none of the bulbs have burnt out or proved to be faulty. Every time we have company over, we are constantly getting compliments. Even our neighbors went out and bought the same lights and love them. Great buy, and just be sure to pay attention to measurements to make sure you buy enough strands. We needed to for our very large patio.

Homestarry Fairy String Multicolor Changing Twinkle Lights with Remote, 16.4 ft 50 LED's,Battery Powered, Indoor Decorative Silver Wire Bedroom,Patio,Outdoor Garden,Stroller,Christmas Tree,13 Option

 These are perfect! I used these as a part of a Halloween costume with a tulle ballerina skirt; they looked awesome underneath the sheer fabric. The red LEDs are a little dim, but the blues and greens are very bright. I'm very happy with this purchase!

 Love these LED lights! Taped these to the house I made for my daughter. The multiple lights, remote and changing lights are her favorite part of the house.

 I ordered these lights on the 21st and they were delivered on Sunday. Super fast delivery, love it. It arrived in a box with a product manual and remote (remote battery was included), safely tucked in a padded envelope. The lightstring is this thin bendable wire so its very easy to manipulate in any way you want. Unfortunately for me, my nephew happened to be there when I opened the package and he immediately fell in love with it. Tempted though I was, I can't deny the little rugrat anything so it ended up in his room as a nightlight. We put the lights in a big glass vase to make "fairy lights". I saw that project on Pinterest and always wanted to try it. There are 12 different colors and you can use the remote to pick what color you want or you can choose for it to cycle through the colors. There's a timer feature.There's even a feature that allows you to either dim the lights or make them brighter. That's a ton of features for a string of lights. We used the green light, because it's his favorite color, and used the button to dim the lights and it's the perfect amount of light to use as a nightlight. This would be so pretty with a candle set on glass pebbles in a glass vase. That had been my original intention. I could imagine using it wrapped around a door wreath strung up outside on the patio. I'm very happy with my purchase, I only wish I had picked up two!
I attached a video where I use the jump feature to cycle through all the colors and then the light dimmer then the light (brightener?) I guess you'd call it. I hope that helps somebody.

These lights are great. I bought them to use with my Halloween costume. I dressed as an angel and attached the light to my wings. (The battery pack is in between the wings.) The end result was great. I love that it comes with a little remote. I kept the remote in the pocket of my robe.

 These lights look so cute! They work so much better than I expected, and they look amazing during day and night. It was relatively easy to set up although it did take some time. There are eight modes and you can simply use the remote to adjust the mode.

I planned a romantic evening picnic at the beach for my boyfriend and this paired up worth a inexpensive lantern really did the job when setting the mood. On the battery compartment there's also a button that you can press to shuffle through The many different colors. He was impressed with his surprise and for me this was the show stopper. It's so versatile that the creative possibilities in which which to use these lights are endless.

I got my son a loft bed and wanted to try and get as cool of a set up as I could on a small budget. I stumbled on these lights after looking at many others and decided these were my best option. I got 2 sets and even though they are separate they can both be controlled by the same remote, which is great! The sensor for the remote appears to be in the battery pack so if you have multiple battery packs close, all strands should respond when pushing a button.

I am so pleased I am thinking of getting some for other rooms in my house!! Hopefully they last!

 .I really love these lights. I can set the atmosphere and mood with the click of a button from my desk. There are so many colours, and they are very vibrant. There will be great Christmas decorations soon.
Pros
• Remote control
• Indoor/outdoor
• Timer function
• Brightness control
• 13 colours to choose from
• Choice between single colour, “jump,” and fade modes
Cons
• The wire seems delicate, but I was careful and didn’t have any problems.
• Hard to find a balance between hiding the receiver/battery pack and having it in a place where it can easily receive signals from the remote control.
• Turning of the timer function is not intuitive. I will need to hold onto the instructions to remember how. Maybe I’ll cut out that part and tape it to the back of the remote.

I selected this specific set of lights because of the silver wire as opposed to most others which are copper. The length were perfect for my windows and the led is ver bright. The colors are awesome. It has a timer for 6 hours on and 18 hours off. It gives the rooms a creative look and ambience. I just put them up so do not know how long it will work (hopefully a long time). I highly recommend them. The only negative is that I went to order a couple more and they no longer have them in stock. That sucks.

Update: The timer only worked on 1 out of the 3 sets I purchased. It is not a big deal for me, as the lights are meant to view from the inside and I turn it off when I am ready to settle down for the night. I am also too lazy to take them down for an exchange 😏 I still love them👍🏼

The lights are back in stock and I ordered a couple more. I will put them up in my bedroom windows and Holiday gifts for my family. I'm sure they will love them as much as I do.

 These lights worked perfectly for my project. I creating a color changing mesh wreath and the lights effortlessly weaved through the mesh and the battery pack was light enough that it didn't disturb my wreath. My original remote had some issues, but the seller sent me a knew one at no charge and it works great!! I really like the timer feature. My only complaint was that the product photos make it look like orange is an available color option but it is not. The "orangish" color on the remote is more of a light green with red lights. I was bummed because my wreath changes with the seasons and I really wanted an orange look for fall. Oh well the red looks good with the fall leaves and the purple, green, red, blue will be great for other seasons. There is also a really pretty minty teal color that I love!

Product Picture Deceiving - I had a set of these so I had an idea of what I was getting but if you haven't seen a set before, just beware. The picture of the product makes the light string appear larger than it is. It is a very tiny wire with very tiny lights. I included a photo of the set in my average sized woman hand.
They arrived on time and work fine. The remote is a neat idea.

I had solar lanterns which are of a nice size, but the solar batteries always needed to be recharged after a a couple days. I put these string lights in & then put the battery box in & you wouldn't even see it. I love the timer & different settings for the pattern of the lights. They are bright & beautiful. I am so happy I thought of this! I then ordered another set for my front lanterns. I am a happy lady now!!!! The box is very well constructed & the remotes made it easy to put on & set the timer, right though the lanterns! So far they have been through 3 snowfalls & freezing temps & they are still going strong.

I absolutley love these lights ! They work great and I received them fast. I was a little nervous after reading a review that said the lights came all tangled and it took a the buyer 2 hours to untangle and they were hard to work with. I am very happy to say that they came very neatly packed and out of all 8 sets I received not one of them were tangled or difficult to work with. As a matter of fact they were just the opposite !!!! I have even completly removed them and arranged them on another decorative craft I was working on and never had any difficulties nor did they ever get tangled at all on me. I love how bright they are and how long the batteries are lasting ! Since I have had them I have used them for at least 6 hours and they are just as bright as the first time I turned them on and showing no signs of needing to change the batteries at all. They have a great variety of patterns and love the fact that I can dim them with all of the settings and not just the steady pattern. Love love love these lights and would highly recommend them to anyone !! I am looking forward to buying more real soon !! Thanks for such a great, durable, and low priced product!!

I love these lights. I use them all the time. I used these in garland around my front door. It is located under a covered porch so it is well protected. Being a longer length each one covered one side of the doorway. Being battery powered there are no cords to worry about. No worries about how close a plug in is or an extension cord. I also used some other lights on wreaths inside the house. Again no ugly cords hanging down the wall. The best thing is it comes with a remote.

I'm actually using these GREAT lights to make (not so original, I know) wine bottle gifts for a few friends this year. I'm not the most creative person on the planet, so I never made a true effort to try making these bright little bottles. Great things happen so unexpectedly and that's just what happened. I stumbled across them accidentally, and beyond thrilled at how sparkly and gorgeous they're turning out! I wrapped one of the bottles in sparkly tissue paper while it was lit from inside. I Do believe I'll turn them on and quickly wrap with the tissue paper just before delivery. Come to think of it, if only I could buy these by the 100's... I'm picturing the entire driveway and sidewalks to my front door on Christmas eve. Hmmm....
I NEED TO ADD TO REVIEW
(December 6, 2018)
In my review above, I quickly wrote it after receiving the lights. I put batteries in to test the lights, and started to order a few more. Time got away from me. Today, I replaced all the batteries and started to make some gifts with them. I had them turned on, (love the little remotes) they were bright, then all at once after getting the holiday bottles just right, one strand dimmed. It seemed to start going through a cycle of all of the options available with the remotes, then...it just stopped lighting. This was a two jar lighted gift with the lights between jars. I took the jar apart, much easier to assemble, changed batteries .... Nothing. I've been searching how to contact the company since its too late to return or exchange. I just want to alert you, in case you're counting on making gifts with the lights. They are certainly beautiful, handy little lights, but ... I'm not sure now about using the 2nd strand that came with the set.

I bought these lights to decorate a child's bedroom. Two strands of 20 feet LED lights was enough. They're basically just wires with small LED lights that you can bend into an approximate shape.

PRO:
- Lights can be dimmed (that was important for me)
- Timer (6-hour off only, I think)
- Multiple flashing options (incl. just on/no flash)
- Each strand runs on 3 AA batteries in what seems to be a weather resistant case (didn't test outside)
- Each strand comes with its own remote, BUT you can use one remote to control BOTH strands! (Save the other remote in case the first breaks or gets lost.)
- Does not get hot; safe for children's room (maybe not babies, but big kids)

CON:
- Still have to see how long 3 AAA batteries last (for these tiny LED lights, I can't imagine they use much energy)

I spent MANY hours choosing what I felt would make the best little lighting for a long time in our new home. The hours spent were more than worth the find! These are exceptionally high quality, professionally looking warm and beautiful lights! The ONLY reason that I did not give this a 5 star is I feel that no one is perfect; everyone can make an improvement upon whatever they are doing! Although I cannot recommend an improvement upon these gorgeous lights, I am sure someone with the tech or lighting experience would perhaps be able to! I would presently purchase these lights again, if I see, after putting them up, that I do not have enough of them, which is VERY likely to happen!!!...

I loved that this set has different settings and that I have the timer option as well. However, the selling point for me was the ability to control with a remote. I needed to replace a set of lights I had in a lantern – I found that by setting the 6 hour timer, it was chewing through batteries and I was changing out 3 AA batteries about every other week. Because the order came with 2 sets, in addition to placing a strand in the lantern, I loosely worked the 2nd set around my photos.
I don’t have this set on all the time (so I really can’t tell you if they go through batteries like the lights I had before... I only have them on for a few hours at a time and not every day) and really like that both sets will work with one remote. I have found that I can use the remote from my couch which is about 10 feet from the lights… that is about the max distance I am able to use the remote. I have found that sometimes at a distance, the remote may only operate just one of the lights and I do have to play a bit.
Overall, I'm happy with these.

These are fantastic! I bought these as a Christmas present for someone who sells products at local farmer's markets, trade shows, etc. and she loved them! I love them so much, I plan on buying a few to add to our wedding decor. They each have their own remote, and the number of setting is amazing. Mostly I love that you can change the brightness level! Having multiple sets with slightly varied levels of brightness will go perfectly with our Boho feel! It also solves the problem of the dreaded Christmas light look at a wedding *shudder* These are surprisingly bright for their size, and now that I see how much they cover I'm less worried about how many I would need. Now if I can just resist the temptation to play with them at my own wedding...

I purchased four pairs (one warm and one cool white) for a photo project. These fairy lights are VERY dainty (fragile) so caution is needed while handling. I didn’t realise that the control box isn’t the only source to change the lights to various settings, but the included wireless remote also gives the user the ability to adjust brightness as well as set a timer. I hope with extra care these will last for quite a few years as I can see myself using these for many projects over time. The price for what you get is truly reasonable.

Hurricane 736520 Fan, Classic Clip 6 Inch

Hurricane 736520 Fan, Classic Clip 6 Inch

Hurricane 736520 Fan, Classic Clip 6 Inch

This fan is great! It's all plastic, which could be seen as a downside, but it's STURDY plastic, which makes a difference. I also bought 2 Lasko 3733 box fans at the same time, and wish I had just bought 3 of these instead. For only around $6 more than the Lasko's, it's definitely worth it. I don't really understand all the people saying they wish it had an even lower mode. Level 1 definitely doesn't seem too high for me. We're using this in the attic while we're doing construction, so I'll take all the air I can get! It definitely pushes a lot of air, and I keep it on 3 all the time. It's relatively quiet and does the job well. Definitely recommend!

So after reading many reviews I decided to give this fan a try. It is a great product , excellent air flow, easy to assemble and isn't too loud but gives a perfect "white noise" effect. But also taking into account what others have said, the installation kit is a bit tricky, its not as easy as just screwing into the wall on one stud. So with that said, I just used a small piece of wood to fix this issue. I have pictures to show what I did and the aftermath. Once installed with a small piece of wood, it sits perfectly and is very secure. Works perfect for my son's bunk bed because there isn't much air flow at the top of his bunk. He loves it and aside from making the small piece of wood, the installation was very quick.

been using it almost daily for around 3 months now, running it 12 hours a day and through the night. its quiet enough to sleep with, i have it mounted less than 10 feet from my bed. it is a very powerful fan and i have never run it higher than the lowest setting, doesnt vibrate or rattle, i can barely hear a hum from it when im in the master bathroom

Update: fired it up for this first time this season and it's still working, yesterday was really hot but as usual it cooled down in the evening. After running the AC for most of the day, this unit took over in the evening all the way to the early morning without missing a beat

Pumps out a ton of air and the fan itself isn't that loud. The mounting bracket isn't shaped very well to mount to a single stud (you might catch 2 out of 3 screws in a stud), so I just cut a 2x4 to mount the bracket to, and screwed the 2x4 to the stud.. At full left turn mine rattles for 1-2 seconds straight out of the box. I'm fairly bummed about that, but shipping it back over that seems like a waste of time and money. If it gets worse i'll use the 1 year warranty since by then the rattle will be the same or much much worse.

UPDATE: I've had the fan on 24/7 since it arrived, so about a month now. The rattle vanished, and it has operated 100% since so I think it was just a breaking in of the plastic for how I had it mounted.

Reviewing the 18" model, I am pleased with the amount of air it moves relative to the level of noise. If there is room, I'd recommend going with an 18" over the 16" to allow for the lower speeds of the 18" to move as much air as the 16" on higher speeds (for perhaps less noise). The blade design of the 18" also appears to be different and more efficient to move air.

One very pleasant surprise of this model was, contrary to every picture I've seen, the swing control is not a knob on the top of the fan. It is the left pull cord. This makes much more sense considering a wall mounted fan has the tendency to be mounted high (making a swing control on top not very accessible).

I have the fan in my workshop replacing a 36" floor fan on wheels that was too large and too loud. Sure the 36" fan was great without AC, but now with a climate controlled and insulated workspace, the 18" wall mounted fan is perfect.

Description

Easily mounts wherever needed. Strong clamp holds fan in place during use. Two speed operation. Adjustable tilt mechanism. 120 volt five foot power cord. UL listed. One year warranty.



For some unknown reason, quality wall fans that include a remote control are very few and far between. Over the past 5 years, I've purchased online (from Amazon and elsewhere) several such fans branded as HomeBasix, AirKing, and another brand whose name I forget -these three brands seemed to be selling the identical fan under different labels so really there's only been ONE wall fan with remote that's readily available until I came across this Hurricane fan which is clearly a different fan altogether). I also recently bought two Lasko/Stanley 655650 High Velocity wall/floor fans. While these two move alot of air, they're not appropriate for an indoor living area as they're WAY too noisy and the lowest speed sent anything weighing less than half a pound flying off tables,desks, and counters!

Two weeks on 11-7-2015 and I have a second one, both purchased used from Amazon Marketplace. They're really excellent and I've upgraded my rating from 4 to 5 stars. This '5' star rating means that this is the best quality and best value remote-control wall fan available in the US market in the context of my having used a total of five brands in this category over the last five years. I really wouldn't bother purchasing the other brands available even if they're cheaper (tho' I've actually seen them sold at highers prices than this Hurricane wall fan is currently selling for) as this one is WAY better quality and better-designed. Having only had these two Hurricane fans switched on for two weeks (I tend to run my wall fans 24/7)that sell other brands), I can't speak to how long it will be until they die - only that, so far, they run the competition into the ground.

This Hurricane fan is, without a doubt, of superior quality and design compared to my previous purchases. It's also stylish. I agree with one critic that its fastest speed is not super-fast; however, it's very efficient i that it moves more air at a given fan speed than many fans do and it's also REALLY quiet - the quietest fan I've ever had. The remote works fine and I like the innovateve "figure-of-eight" oscillating pattern, though I intend to us it in a fixed position aimed at my desk chair.
All in all, I'm very happy with this purchase and I'd recommend it.

Update April 2018
The two Hurricane Wall fans reviewed above are still going strong 24/7. My last AirKing finally died last week so I ordered a 3rd Hurricane to replace it. Aside from some crazy-making Amazon delivery problems which had nothing to do with the quality of this fan (I had to order it twice as the driver couldn't find my address that hasn't changed for 5 years and caused no previous problems with 100s of Amazon orders), I'm as pleased with this as I was with the previous two. The design of the remote control is improved over the ones I already have (the previous design was a little confusing). Apart from this, the fan appears to be identical.

Update: June 16, 2018 - Just ordered the third fan, for the office. This fan has helped reduce the use of the AC and who can't be happy with that?

Update: May 27, 2018 - Love this fan so much, to circulate the air from the AC, in the LR, purchased another one for our bedroom. This is the perfect solution, to eliminating upright oscillating fans and has an incredible breeze, even on the lowest setting. May purchase one more for my office... :)

Just finished hanging the fan and all I can ask myself is, why did we wait so long?

This fan is perfect, in every possible way, beginning with ease of installation. Had it up and running, in less than 5 minutes.

We placed it next to the living room wall AC, level with the air flow grill of the AC unit and just enough away from the AC, to allow for oscillation. The AC unit is large, but because the room is L-shaped and the AC's fan is not forceful enough to properly circulate the air throughout the entire room, this 12 inch fan solved the problem instantly. As a matter of fact, we may not need to use the AC as much, because the fan is actually hitting every corner of the room and cooling it down, with the AC unit off.

The fan is very quiet, on all three speeds, oscillates smoothly and at a nice steady pace. The string controls are an added benefit, if you place the fan beyond reach, but we won't need to use them.

If we ever need another room fan, this will be the unit we purchase. Don't hesitate, if you're debating - this fan is ideal and affordable.

Top Quality, hands down, Not a cheap snap together made product that is flimsy and thin. The Feet are Detented and are securely fastened and not flimsy. They are mounted and turn to lock in place and are not required to be snapped in like cheap box fans.
This Fan is also designed with a dual mounting system so it can be used in a variety of applications.
The Big feature of this fan are the Blades and Energy Consumption. The blades are quieter and move more air than the typical teardrop style on cheap fans. This is a High Velocity, High Pressure Fan. Low Speed moves more air than my cheap one on high with half the noise. The power consumption, is lower than most fans. At a mere 55 watts/ 0.5 A, pushing 2,400 cfm, the efficient blade design does not need a huge motor to move a lot of air. This is where Hurricane got it right. (Think modern Aircraft Propeller Blade Designs).

I have hurricane oscillating fan that I purchased in 2014...it is a great fan...it puts out air very well and is quiet...it oscillates in a "W" pattern...I didn't see where it is available now...so I bought this fan because I wanted to stay with the hurricane brand...this new one really puts out the air...wow...way more than my earlier purchased hurricane fan...it is loud...but powerful...probably won't need ac this summer lol...well built...sturdy metal base and stand...the whole fan is a good solid fan...

I have a less than one year old at home so I've begun baby proofing by getting rid of all the floor fans and installing wall fans. Thus far I've bought 4 Holmes brand wall fans and they are reliable and provide really good air flow. On a lark, I decided to try buying the Hurricane Wall Fan since it offered a remote control and I figured why not.

Wow! I really like this fan. Yes, the fan has three fan speeds and over from left to right like my Holmes, BUT, the oscillation also has a up and down tilt to it which really seems to move the air flow in the room a lot more. The fan also has a timer which will automatically shut off the fan AND it has a remote. The air flow seems slightly less than my Holmes but it is a nominal difference. The price is about the same so it looks like I'll am going to start buying Hurricanes for the rest of my house.

Suncast 33 Gallon Outdoor Trash Can for Patio - Resin Outdoor Trash Hideaway with Lid - Use in Backyard, Deck, or Patio - Brown

Suncast 33 Gallon Outdoor Trash Can for Patio - Resin Outdoor Trash Hideaway with Lid - Use in Backyard, Deck, or Patio - Brown

Suncast 33 Gallon Outdoor Trash Can for Patio - Resin Outdoor Trash Hideaway with Lid - Use in Backyard, Deck, or Patio - Brown

Ok I've has this trash can for a couple of months now. I wanted to live with it before I reviewed it. I have this inside, in the kitchen, because it does look that nice, and I like a big trash can that I don't have to empty every 2 days. I love the overall look, the way the lid holds the bag in place, the way the lid locks if you need it. Now this is what I HATE....when I take the full bag out, it's a struggle, and the bag usually rips because the inside is not smooth, it has ridges made into the resin that catch the full bag and rip it as you pull. If they could make the inside smooth, this would be the absolutely perfect trash can. And I know, you could put less trash in it so the bag wouldn't be so full and push against the inside as you try to take it out.....but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a large trash can, doesn't it? You use a large trash can because you want it to hold a lot of trash so you have to empty it less often and use fewer bags. I do have an idea on how to fix this, and I'll be trying it out probably in the next few days. I'm either going to cut 4 pieces of either cardboard or flat plastic, and tape it to the 4 inside walls to make them smooth. It won't change the capacity, and it should make the shredded bag problem go away. But should I have to do this, or should it just be made that way? With just a little more real world testing, it should have been obvious to the company that it tears the bags when the bag is full. Oh well, nothing is perfect.......UPDATE 5/20/14......I have fixed the inside of the trash can so it no longer rips the bags! Here's what you do. I went to wally world, and got a cardboard box, it's in the packing supply section. The size you need is 14 by 14 by 14, it comes folded flat, it's 68 cents. When you open it, it fits almost perfectly down into the inside of the trash can. You do have to wiggle it a bit, as it's not quite exactly the same size, but it fits great when you get it all the way in. Then just trim the top of the box so it's just inside the lid so it will close, and there you go, the bags just slide right out, no matter how full! You're welcome lol!!

These are very sturdy and only took a minute to snap together. I can't say how well they hold up outside, but the quality is far better than I expected for the price. I actually bought these as a creative way to sort laundry. I purchased three of these trash hideaways and some cloth liners off Amazon for $7. I snap the liners in the lid so that the weight of my husband's jeans don't make the liner fall into the bin. The top opening hatch is perfect for my kids to use, as it keeps everything in place during their clumsy sorting. I no longer have to fish out the edges of the hamper lining under a bunch of dirty underwear. Yay!!! That makes this a perfect design for a laundry hamper for any mom (especially with little bed wetters). Standard laundry hampers don't have this feature because they are not built this way. And with stylish design, no one even knows that these are actually trash bins! Everyone who has seen them love them! This idea is cheaper than most "sturdy" full sized laundry hampers and waaaay better because of being able to snap in the he liner and only pull it out when full, but still having access to put clothes in with the use of the top hatch. It's brilliant. I used my label makers and made simple labels for darks, whites, and colors. If your kids can't read yet, perhaps order different colored liners or tape to distinguish each hamper for easy sorting.

I love these storage containers. I have purchased 3 sets of them (6) over the past 2 years. I have 2 by our pool - 1 for trash & 1 for cans/bottles. They stay closed nicely so even if the dog finds a way to tip it over he can't get in it and spread garbage. Two others we use to sort recycles (glass, cans, plastics) for our association at our summer condo. The last set I gave to some friends for their man-cave. They love them! They are very attractive, large and well worth the price! I made signs and laminated them for inside the lids to indicate what goes in them. They stay very dry.

My dog poops roughly 8 times a day. I needed a place to store this poop that wasn't inside my house or inside the garbage cans i keep in the garage. This thing sits on my patio and stores my dog poop until garbage day. It contains the smell; there is no odor around or near it. Of course, when you open it up, it smells like dog poop, but how are you going to stop that. It has like a double lid thing going on which is nice. The main opening allows me to put garbage bags in and take them out and also keeps them securely in place. The smaller lid opens up allowing me to dump dog poop straight from the pooper scooper without messing with the bag or worrying about getting my hands dirty. Also, I have had this thing sitting in the sun for more than a year now and it has held its original color. I expected it to fade, but so far, so good.

The photo I have posted, taken today, is of a 5 year, 4 month old Suncast Outdoor Trash Hideaway, which I purchased from Amazon in April, 2013. Since that time the bin has been sitting on my covered patio in an area that faces the morning sun until at least 11:00 to noon during the long summer months, with temperatures of 90-100 degrees, or higher. Our town requires that all trash be bagged, so we put a 33 gallon trash bag in the bin. Each day we empty the trash bins from the house into the bag in the Suncast bin. When the trash bag is full we take it out to the large containers provided by the town that are stored behind our house, usually twice a week. I am writing this review now because we recently purchased a 2nd Suncast bin when we found that they also come in a lighter (beige?) color, which matches the patio colors, block wall, etc., and blends in better than the dark brown. HOWEVER, our more than 5 year old Suncast bin is STILL in nearly perfect condition. The photo shows that it is kind of dirty/dusty right now because we have had several monsoon dust storms in the last few days, but we normally hose it off once a week and it cleans up like new. It is also almost waterproof. It can be hosed off without water getting into the trash bag. When we have had severe storms where the rain has come down very hard and sideways there have been a couple of times where a little water got into the bag in the bin. The ONLY thing wrong with this bin, which was my fault, is that the plastic/rubber hinges partially broke when I knocked it over while the cover was open. However, it has in no way affected the way it seals the top. While I normally would not write a long review about a product designed to hold trash, I do feel that the quality and design of this product at such a reasonable price deserves to be acknowledged. Because the top provides a pretty good seal we can have the bin near our back door without attracting dozens of flies. We will use the old bin, which will fit neatly into a garage corner, for storing smaller garden items-trimmers, small shovels, etc. I believe this product will be around long after we're gone :)

Description

Trash Receptacle.



Yes it's plastic... But does the job. Very easy to put together too. Took about 15 minutes. I bought an entire Corfu set ( 2 chairs/1 sofa, table) including this trash can, and cooler-table. Looks great on my tiny deck ... No it not wicker but can not beat the price and just as comfy.

This item was shipped extremely fast. I received it the very next day after I ordered it. I love the look of it! We have gotten so many complicates on it. I brought it for our kitchen because my husband likes to have a huge garbage can in the kitchen. The only issue is like other reviews stated getting the garbage bag out without tearing the bag is kind of hard. I gave 4 stars because of that but other than that I love it.

Just received my trash container. Nicely made, good quality as usual from Suncast, but I am having a bear of a time simply attaching the side panels to the bottom! I own several other Suncast products, and have never had a problem assembling the pieces. One last tab to go. I'm sorry to have to give a 3-star rating, but they need to re-think those tiny tabs. I wish they would use bolts instead.

4/14/19: I've decided to give this item an extra star. After successfully horsing the nasty bottom connection tabs into place, the installation went smoothly. This container is sturdy and very attractive. The lid snaps on securely, and the access lid has a locking feature, which so handy. I'm using this container on my front porch as a dog poop receptacle, and there is zero odor when the lid is closed.
Customer service folks are excellent as well!

This garbage can is perfect. I was looking for an outdoor can that would serve only two purposes- hold trash and keep out the raccoons. I don’t even really care that much about asthetics, but honestly this looks pretty nice. It seems to blend in unobtrusively with my deck. I’ve had a long standing battle with the neighborhood raccoons. They’ve consistently raided the garbage no matter where I’ve put it or what type of cover I had on top of the can. I’ve tried keeping the cans in the garage, but they still manage to sneak in and trash my entire garage. This garbage can fit the bill for my needs. It was easy to assemble, blends in well, and most importantly latches shut on top with a sliding top that is effective against even the most nimble raccoon fingers. My husband puts all kinds of delicious raccoon treats inside while he’s grilling outdoors. We probably change the bag about once a week, and even then the can has not been opened, moved, or knocked over. I would buy this garbage can again. In fact I did- now I have two.

I recently switched from weekly trash dumpster pickup to as-needed 30 gallon bag trash pickup and needed somewhere to store my trash bag until pickup day. This Suncast Outdoor Trash Hideway was exactly what I needed! The capacity is approximately 30 gallons, so it holds two of my 13-gallon kitchen trash bags until pickup day. It's awfully cute for a trash can, it seems really sturdy, and it put together very easily.

I rated it 4 stars because the lid is kind of clunky to use. The lid is two parts - the upper top part opens a smaller lid so you can put single items of trash in, and then the whole lid also opens on a hinge. The smaller top part's handle tends to pull right off and doesn't slide very well, but I probably won't be using it very much anyway since I'm using this to store bags and not really as a trash can in the typical sense.

Overall, I'm very satisfied with this product.
