Lumos Outdoor Fireplace Transforms Into A Grill
As a guy that loves charcoal grilling, I am digging the Lumos. But it is more than just a grill. Simply flipping up the chimney transforms it into an elegant outdoor fireplace.

$88,000 Home Speakers?
In light of recent economic news, I have some investment advice for you. Stay away from the stock market, because it’s very volatile. Also, you should probably avoid real estate. But one area worth investing in is ridiculous speakers. Like the RAAL Requisite Eternity speakers. They’re the smartest thing you can do with $88,000, I […]
Asus Eee Top – Budget All-In-One Computer
What we like most about the Eee Top is that it’s small enough and light enough to move from room to room, but with an even smaller footprint than a laptop.

RITI Printer Uses Old Coffee Grounds As Printing Ink
Fortunately, I don’t use my printer nearly as much as I used to—but that doesn’t mean I enjoy paying ridiculous prices for ink. Imagine if you could replace that pricey ink with old coffee grounds? If the RITI coffee printer existed as a real-world product, you could do just that. The design calls for spent […]
