Like a puppy. Our black and white desktop coffee warmer heats up to 180°, just like the ones you see in SkyMall. Measures 4-1/2" square x 7/8" thick with a 3" dia ceramic element, off/on switch, indicator light, and 5-foot power cord that plugs into any 120vac household outet. Knowledgeable hostesses also know how handy these are for keeping the gravy in a liquid state on the sideboard. UL.

Reduce recycling space with this wall-mount steel can crusher. Very satisfying to use: pull the 12-1/4" long padded handle and it easily smooshes cans up to 5-3/8" tall (standard aluminum beverage size) into squat little accordion-pleated stumps. The black and gray steel unit mounts with the included screws and has a handy bottle opener under its the front lip, because you don't.

No wires, no geese necks, no big clips, just a 4" x 7" piece of clear acrylic with a 1/2" thick black-plastic edge on one side that holds (4) "AAA" batteries (not included) and a pair of white LEDs. Lay it on the book, hold it with your thumb (like part of the book) and the light disperses through the acrylic sheet and lights up the whole page. Has an on/low/high power switch.

Seventy-plus years of Soviet history neatly packed into a set of (5) wooden nesting dolls, just like the chubby-mummy matryoshka, but with hammer and sickle emblems on their backs. The outer doll is a 6-1/2" tall Gorbachev, with Brezhnev, Khruschev (we think), Joe Stalin, and a tiny, 1-3/4" Vladimir Lenin all nesting inside. Recent Russian events are putin them in the surplus universe.

Just the thing to add visibility to your dark basement steps. Our each is Jobar's 4-pack of smooth, light-green, glow-in-the-dark rubber stair treads with self-adhesive strips on the back. Each non-slip tread is 15-3/4" long x 6-3/4" deep x 1/16" thick. We also like these as head-savers for low beams in dark places.

The Noah's Flood Alarm alerts you instantly to a leaking hot-water heater or an overflowing tub. Place the small, flat plastic sensor where water shouldn't be. A 10-ft white wire leads to a 3-3/8" x 1-3/4" x 3/4" plastic housing with an LED alarm and (2) "AA" batteries (yours, not ours). When the sensor gets wet, the LED will flash and a buzzer (think alarm clock) will sound and save the day.

For when you just can't drag yours around anymore? No, for out-of-sight cigarette butt and ash disposal. This mini-bucket, sans handle, is a 3-1/4" dia x 3-7/8" tall ashtray that can sit on a desk or table, or fit neatly into a car's cup holder. Its removable lid has (3) slots to hold lit cigarettes and a small, cigarette-diameter hole so the butts slide out of sight and go out for lack of oxygen. Comes in assorted colors (our choice) and cuts down ambient dead-butt odors, too.
