My Excellent Choices

Can’t wait to tell you more…

Our nutribullet blender got a real workout these last couple of weeks. You may have yet to experience the discomfort of wisdom teeth removal or a similar jaw stretching procedure. If that is so, get a nutribullet before you need it!

This fast, powerful and easy to clean blender turns raw and cooked vegetables, fruits and cooked lean meats with broth into an instant and comforting meal for those “after the dentist” recovery days.

This is not a juicer. you could add a little extra water and strain after blending, but many people appreciate the fiber left after completely and quickly reducing a sliced peach or apple to applesauce.

Now that this is in the front of our kitchen “gadget shelf”, I’ll be using this blender to mix the liquid ingredients for our blueberry and corn muffins.

The nutribullet has a couple of models. There is a standard model and a higher wattage model for those who want “more power”.

The EGO Power+ BCA1220 12” Carbon Fiber Shaft Brush Cutter Attachment deserves its own page and its own review. It is one of many attachments available for the EGO Powerhead system of high performance battery powered tools.

If you have used string cutters successfully up to the point of frustration, and want something capable of heavier weeds, bushes and undergrowth; then you should check out this brush cutter. The metal blade cuts through thick brush that is too large for string cutters and too small for chain saws.

My next purchase for the Powerhead system will likely be the pole saw, but this brush cutter attachment probably sees more use than any other EGO product that I own. The brush cutter and Powerhead combo is a great starter kit for the EGO system of battery powered tools.

If you continually experience “Dry Eyes” or insufficient tears – please see your doctor! This is an over-the-counter product, but you should still take “Dry Eyes” seriously. I use these drops as an eye-wash to flush a bit of dust or grit from my eye if I have been working outside. Other family members use lubricating eye drops on the advice of physicians. Single use containers are individually sealed, easily open and it is handy to keep a few in a pocket or purse just in case!

What does the Powerhead do? Well, not much until you add this!

The powerhead is just the start of a very versatile system of specialty tools and attachments.

An friend remembered seeing an old Johnny Carson skit, “Dickey The Stick” and started to poke a little fun at the EGO Powerhead; but I had the last laugh when I added batteries and the brush cutter attachment. What a fantastic combination! The brush cutter tackles that tough growth that string cutters don’t even scratch.

My wish list is growing. I do want the string cutter, the extension pole, the pole saw and probably one more battery.

There are two versions of the Powerhead (1400 and 1420). The difference in price is small and you may want to consider the 1420 upgrade like I did. Be sure to shop the combo packages at Amazon. You can sometimes save if you get the Powerhead, batteries and attachments as a promotional bundle.
