FuelBelt 2013 Revenge Arm Bandit 7oz Hydration Arm Band Save 29% off

Fuelbelt Revenge Arm BanditThe bottle, even after many washes and usage, makes the water tastes like plastic. The water quality becomes simply undrincable. By itself, this invalidates the usage of this arm-band bottle. In fact I had to find a canteen to replace to bottle, even if it does not fit well I''d rather have water that has no taste...

It was very nice to run a half-marathon without having a bouncy waist pack throwing off my rhythm. It was very comfortable and I highly recommend it for all runners.

I bought this to use for my first half marathon and it sure did the trick! I did not need to carry water, only elyctrolytes, and this was just the prefect amount. It didn''t bounce around, it was easy to pull the bottle in and out and for the most part I forgot it was there. It did leak a little bit, but nothing terrible and luckily it was on my practice run so I tightened the lid and made sure it was closed tight and I had no more problems.

Cutter Backyard Bug Control 32 oz Ready-to-Spray Hose End Insect Repellent Concentrate HG-61067 Save 37% off

Cutter Backyard Bug Control 32 oz Ready-to-Spray Hose End Insect Repellent Concentrate HG-61067I have used the Cutter spay for several years and have been very pleased with the result. This year, I purchased two bottles and neither sprayer worked, water came out but the insect repellant stayed in the bottle. Next time at Menards, I purchased two more bottles, same result, even tried mixing different heads on the bottles, wasted an hour, the bugs win this time. I tried moving the lever into different positions and nothing worked, bottle still full.

I live in an area in Minnesota where mosquitoes are numerous and extremely bothersome. Since we have relatively short summers, I look forward to the summer season to enjoy the outdoors, but mosquitoes will literally ruin the summer season if not treated. In addition, mosquitoes carry West Nile Disease, and a dear friend several houses away contracted this disease while working in his yard. He was severely ill for months, and was lucky to survive. To protect my family, I decided to take my yard back from the blood-sucking, disease-carrying demoms. I first tried one of the mosquitoe magnet devices, Mosquito Magnet MM4000 Defender Mosquito Trap,but despite its great hype (and price!), it did not eliminated the biting tormentors. I then sprayed the yard with an application of Cutter Bug-Free Backyard. The results were stunning! For the first time in many summer seasons, the yard was virtually free of mosquitoes. I have been using this product ever since, and am quite satisfied with it. For me it works better than any other product I''ve tried. The best feature of this product is that it both kills and then repells mosquitoes and bugs. I have found that it lasts about 3 weeks maximum, and that is dependent on the weather. If it rains hard after applying the repellent, I know I will have to reapply the chemical to the yard. A light rain does not seem to affect the repellant quality. Although Cutter advertizes an 8-week mosquito-free period, this is entirely inaccurate; the product must be applied every 2-3 weeks for effective mosquito control

The active ingredient is Permethrin. Permethrin is extremely toxic to fish and aquatic life, so if you have a backyard pond, avoid spraying this area. It is also highly toxic to cats, since they lick their fur and ingest the toxin. Cutter warns to keep all pets off the lawn until the application is completely dry. Spray the yard from the outside perimeter in. You don''t want to get the chemical on your feet, as it will cause a tingling sensation (it is a neurotoxin and is classified as a "likely" carcinogen. There is also a link to Parkinson''s disease). Wear heavy shoes or rubber boots when applying. Cutter instructions say to wet down the yard first, but I usually apply in the early AM when dew is still present. Avoid applying in windy conditions as you don''t want this stuff blowing back on you. Cutter says to not apply more than 14 treatments per year.

The product can be applied by simply attaching the nozzle to your hose and spraying. Spray every single piece of greenery possible, as well as the sides of dwelling, window screens, etc. The wider the perimeter, the better the control of mosquitoes.

While there are risks in using any chemical, I apply the chemical carefully per instructions and avoid getting any on my body. The danger of West Nile Disease is significant in this area, and I''d rather apply Cutter''s Bug-Free Backyard than avoid going outside.

Buy Cutter Backyard Bug Control 32 oz Ready-to-Spray Hose End Insect Repellent Concentrate HG-61067 Now

This product has to be one of the most frustrating products that I have used in years. The dispensing system doesn''t work at all. I bought two bottles and, with each, spent about 45 minutes spraying the lawn while getting eaten by mosquitoes before realizing that not a single drop of teh active ingredients were actually getting dispensed out the hose. Fortunately I had an older bottle with a better dispenser and used that bottle to spray. Unfortunately, that dispenser eventually fell apart, and when I needed a new bottle, I was back with the latest dispenser. For this third bottle, the entire dispenser blew up in my face when I turned on the nozzle, so I got the chemical in my eyes, my mouth, my hair, everywhere. Absolute POS. The people at Cutter should be mortified that they sell a product that is this crappy.

Cutter backyard changed the formula, now it sucks. It used to be the greatest thing ever, now I need to spray weekly to give me the same results as it used to.

Cutter why did you change your formula?????

Want Cutter Backyard Bug Control 32 oz Ready-to-Spray Hose End Insect Repellent Concentrate HG-61067 Discount?

The cutter spray works fairly well but NOT for 8 weeks as advertised. I live just outside of Houston and nothing really works totally. But this will keep if from getting really bad if I apply it every other week. I would buy it on Amazon but they are asking $14.99 and it is only $9.97 at the local Lowe''s.

This is a good looking unit, with a good capacity. Unfortunately, they definitely flavor the water, especially if water is kept in them overnight. I have replaced them with another brand, and there is no odd flavor to the water.

Igloo #4101 10gal Industrial Water Cooler Save 10% off

Igloo #4101 10gal Industrial Water CoolerExcellent cooler for use as a mash tun. It holds temperature perfectly. One cautionary note for home brewers: If you''re doing 10 gallon batches, this is NOT large enough for some high gravity beers. I''d say the absolute most grain you can mash in here is about 21-23lbs.

This is a great product for the home brewer because it can easily be converted to a mash tun. Just remove the spigot and screw in a valve and a kettle screen, both of which can be purchased at

Buy Igloo #4101 10gal Industrial Water Cooler Now

This is Igloo''s commercial version of the 10 gallon beverage cooler. It is a bright easily seen OSHA approved yellow color with a red lid. The lid has a handle but for about $9 you can get a flat lid that provides seating, if needed. This cooler is super rugged and has a recessed nozzle that provides some protection when handled in a rough fashion. Igloo sells the nozzel and handles seperately (very inexpensive) should replacement ever be necessary. There are various lesser incarnations of this unit for the consumer but this is the real deal for commercial applications. There is also a rugged steel truck mount (#25043) available that securely allows mounting this cooler on most any vehicle or location. This cooler keeps contents cold all day long in 95F+ temps, easy to use, super rugged and is a life saver on any job.

I bought the iGloo to take camping at the beach. We used to buy a ton of water bottles to make sure the kids say hydrated. Of course, they loose the bottles or mix them up with the other kids (yuck). We decided to get this and keep if filled with ice water and have the kids use reusable water bottles. Its sturdy!!!!! I read a complaint about the rope that holds the lid on. Well funny thing is that on the way to the beach, I saw no less then three coolers (only one was a water cooler lid) on the side of the highway. My lid holds tight, but I''m betting those other people wish they had a rope :)

Homebrewers delight. I purchased the Industrial model as I wanted something that would maintain the desired heat and it does. I''ve used it twice already for a Robust Porter and a African Amber and after 60 minutes of mashing the temps were the same as whan I started. I also purchased the 12" false bottom and it fits perfect!!!!!

Undeniable 32 oz. Squeezable Bottle with Quick Shot Lid Water Bottle

Undeniable 32 oz. Squeezable Bottle with Quick Shot Lid Water Bottle by Under Armour One Size Fits All RoyalI own both the Under Armour and Gatorade water bottles Both offer the perfectly-sized 32 oz capacity, and a quick-shot spout which keeps the fluid in until the pressure outside exceeds the pressure inside. Very nice.

That said, the Gatorade bottle stops there while the Under Armour bottle adds the functionality of a quick shot spout that also can be twisted closed. This means I can pop it in my backpack and not worry about bumping it hard enough to expel the fluid all over my other stuff including electronics. This makes it a perfect airline carry-on water bottle for my frequent travels.

When I''m not transporting the bottle, I simply twist open the quick shot spout and the water stays in until I need it.

Also, the ability to close the quick shot spout means I can add my favorite powder mix to water and shake it up. I tried that with the Gatorade bottle, but the increased pressure kept shooting the fluid out during the mixing process, even when trying to cover the spot with my thumb. This sucks.

The Under Armour bottle also has rubberized grips (not so with the O2 bottle), and a very small logo that isn''t as overpowering as the traveling Gatorade advertisement. If this isn''t important to you, then no big deal.

For me, this is just another example of getting what you pay for. For a few more dollars, this is the obvious choice for me.

This is well made and reliable. The best part is the top. When open, the water flows well and when closed it is water tight. It is a little pricey for a water bottle, but worth it.

Buy Undeniable 32 oz. Squeezable Bottle with Quick Shot Lid Water Bottle Now

I initially bought this water bottle the summer of 2012. It was for my daughter who swims Mondays through Fridays. She never cared much about which water bottle she owned until this one. I decided to get one for myself and now my entire family has switched over to this water bottle. It is easy, convenient and for my germ-a-phobic husband, not having a straw and intricate devices to sanitize is a definite advantage. For those of you who said it leaked after a week, have you heard of a return/exchange policy? One of the 5 bottles that we bought did have a leak after a month or so and we simply exchanged it. Has not had a problem since. It has been almost a year and all of our bottles are going strong. I love this bottle!

A family member filled this up, took it to school and it leaked all over their backpack. The "seam" between the black squeezable handle and the bottle came apart and water came out. Very disappointing.

Every year I try out a new water bottles for my active kids. The best up to this point has been the Polar Bottle, but it has its issues with activities involving kids. It gets left somewhere and grows gross stuff, which can be cleaned with significant work. But it continues to function well.

However, this bottle is far and above amazing. First of all, it doesn''t look fancy, so if it gets left somewhere, no one is interested in taking it. Second, it squirts like the Gatorade bottle, which is also a nice bottle if you aren''t a kid. But the squirter eventually breaks and grows gross stuff. Third, which makes it phenomenal for our uses, the squirt mechanism can open and close AND it can be completely taken apart and cleaned THOROUGHLY. No more hidden gross stuff. It is a little bit tricky at first and it should come with instructions. But here is what to do (and why it probably leaked for one of the reviewers). To take it apart, pop off the twist part that is grey and black, unscrew the nozzle from the base and take out the flexible insert. After the lid parts are squeeky clean and dry, put it back together. First, pop the flexible part inside the nozzle. Screw it into the base until it stops and be careful not to cross thread see the threads? Then, this is the tricky part: line up the notches on the inside of the grey and black twist part to the bumps on the nozzle, then pop it on. If it isn''t on right it won''t be flush or won''t go on. Don''t force it, just take the gray and black part off and try it again until you get it. It can be twisted open and closed again. One other problem that we have found is that if it is dropped on its top, the nozzle can become jammed. The best way that we have found to unjam the nozzle is to use the grey and black lid to turn the nozzle and get it off.

We have had this bottle for about 2 months and aren''t sure about how long it will last yet. The polar bottle is at 6 years and still functioning, but we are favoring the Underarmour bottle at the moment.

FuelBelt TrailRunner Fuel Belt Save 30% off

FuelBelt Trail Runner 4 Bottle Belt, BlackI don''t run trails, but of all different hydration belts I tried this wins hands-down. I really like that it is adjustable and one-size-fits-all. Another feature I really appreciate is the elastic bands that support the bottles in their pockets. Many other belts have a problem of bottles falling out, but in this one they stay put. The belt has two zipped pockets and two velcro pockets and sometimes I pack them to the brim when I go on long runs. Things that fit in there at once included cell phone, car keys, 4-5 energy jells, hand wipes and a couple of sheets of paper towels. (And maybe a couple more small items that I cannot remember now). The belt is well-made, durable and all the features are placed conveniently. I''ve been very happy with it and highly recommend it, especially if you are going to do long runs and need to carry more supplies with you.

This was exactly what I wanted until I tried it on. The two bottles on the sides were located such that as my arms swung while walking/jogging, the rubbed against the bottles that just wouldn''t work for me. I did like the 2 pockets rather than the one large pocket, but this would have been better if the pockets were adjustable so they could have been slid a bit closer to the body''s midline and away from my arm swing.

After reading the reviews, I decided on this belt because it was adjustable (so I could share it with relatives with different waist sizes), and had four pockets. I''m a runner who is training for a marathon. As I started getting into higher mileage, I needed to hydrate more frequently, which meant I had to keep returning to my house every few miles to hydrate. I bought this belt so I could stay out for longer periods of time without returning home. So far I used to belt on a 10 mile run and it worked great. I was able to keep my usual pace, but had to adapt a little to having this thing on my waist. I tried wearing it low on my hips, but it rode up so I retightened it and actually preferred where it was. It did bounce from time to time, but it never was a problem. The bottles stayed out of the way of my arms and didn''t leak at all. Getting the bottles in and out does take two hands, but, again, with some practice this wasn''t a problem. Same with the pockets...they are basically behind you so it takes a minute to get them open, but with practice this won''t be an issue. All of these "issues" are erased by having enough water with me to last through long runs without turning around. The pockets hold everything I need, including two clif bars, my cell phone and some GU packs. I look forward to using this and I already see it as an invaluable tool.

Update (10/2/11): One year later and I couldn''t run without this. I''m only up to 16 miles, but it''s great to have three bottles of gatorade, one with water and pockets for shot bloks, cough drops and a clif bar (sometimes two). I always use them in races too so I can have MY flavor of gatorade. This was a great purchase for me.

This is a great running belt! I was concerned it would not stay on my waist but it does! I am a size 2 and it never slips down or feels like it''s going to fall off. Also when all the bottles are filled with water it is not heavy. The pockets are big enough for chap stick, keys, ipodbut not big enough for an IPHONE. So if you have an iphone it''s not gonna fit. Other than that negative I would highly recommend this belt!

Want FuelBelt TrailRunner Fuel Belt Discount?

Overall the belt works pretty well. The bottles are 1 oz larger than the bottles on my previous belt and fit better. The one issue I have is that the belt constantly slides around my waist and I have to readjust it a lot. I do like how you can tighten the belt more than just by using the velcro straps as in previous models. This may be due to only using 2 of the 4 bottles right now. The pockets work well for my mp3 player and other small items.

This thing is rugged and strong. It is very well made and will last a long time. And it works with every bottle that I have used with it. I am very happy with it.

Really amazing! does what it says I cant see how this could break its pretty heavy duty. Although I wouldnt recommend hooking it on your belt its still pretty heavy and moves a lot. Best spots are on your back pack or if you got a cool back pack with D rings on the straps hook them on there its great,

I had the ghost ring attached to one of my bags and at some point the metal clasp that opens did just that. Only it opened sideways somehow allowing the entire ghost ring to separate. I didn''t notice it was gone until later. And later was when I wanted to attach a bottle of water only to find nothing to attach it to. so I never got a chance to see if it worked or not.

Dura-Pearl All Weather Bottle 16 Oz

Dura-Pearl All Weather Bottle 16 Ozbe careful not to lose the gasket when you wash it, but my dogs love drinking this way and they don''t get all wet faces or drip all over floor. great when you train them like this early on.

These work great on my little dogs crates. Each of my little Poms has their own crate where they sleep at night, and I wanted them to have water, but a bowl gets dirty and is too easy to tip over and spill, which would leave my little doggies with a cold wet bed, which would not be good. This hangs right on the door of the crate where it is easy to keep track of whether it has water in it and no spilling! I have noticed an occasional drip, so I did put a small bowl under it to catch any drips and keep their bedding dry. They always have water and they can still have a dry place to sleep.
