COZZY FIRE: Infomercial Review

I admit it: When I first saw the infomercial for Cozzy Fire and hard of the whole concept, I was skeptical. Nah, I was downright incredulous. It has nothing to do with that weird name (Looks like a misspelling, and it plays nasty tricks on my spell-check). Instead, it’s that bizarre mixture of high-tech with low tech.

If you haven’t seen the Cozzy Fire commercial, it’s a wall-mounted fireplace that is totally remote controlled. In fact, there is no real fire there. Instead, there’s a light deflection technology that creates a visual flame effect which looks amazingly real. The “fireplace” has nine settings, allowing you to create exactly the look, ambiance and feel that you want. But fireplaces have a sense of being traditional, old-fashioned…..so can high-tech really mesh well with the fireplace?

It can and does! Since we ordered our Cozzy Fire, we’ve found that this actually works better than a real fireplace. It’s easier to get the heat level exactly right, plus there’s never any overwhelming smell.

But the commercial does leave some important questions unanswered:

* Does Santa recognize stockings that hang over a fake fireplace as being authentic?

* Isn’t it a bit difficult to roast chestnuts on the “open fire” of a virtual fireplace?

* Most of all, what do I do with all of that wood I’ve chopped for the real fireplace?

Regardless of the answers to these questions, there’s little doubt that both, the fans of modern technology and the fans of old-fashioned home decor will love the Cozzy Fire. It’s a great accessory for any home, and can even be taken with you if you move into a different home. You might never learn to spell it exactly right, but you’ll enjoy your Cozy Fire–oops, COZZY Fire–all year long.

Quick Lawn: Infomercial Review

In college I lived in house that had a huge front and back yard. Of course none of us were proactive enough to take care of the dang thing and it didn’t help that the city came and started some construction and filled in the hole with cement then decided to dump the remaining unused cement in the dirt which just became a huge eye sore. So much in fact that I decided to start working on the lawn. It took me a few days but I finally leveled the yard, cleared out the weeds and picked up all the rocks and cement bits so that it was now ready for me to put down seed. Thanks to the hard work that I had put into the yard the landlord decided that I didn’t have to pay a months rent (more beer for everyone) and then she supplied me with some grass seed. Well I guess she didn’t go with Quick Lawn grass seed because this stuff just didn’t grow. I put it down like it said and watered like I was suppose to. It was the first time in my life that I put work into where I was living to make it look nicer and I wanted to finish the job and see my handy work pay off.

Well needless to say, the grass grew in all patchy and never really filled in. Despite all my hard work, the lawn just didn’t look that good at all. Now that I know about Quick Lawn I will always use that. I don’t care if it doesn’t do exactly what the infomercial claims. If it just works better than generic grass seed then heck, maybe I would feel a little better about putting that much effort into it. I am not saying I am looking forward to my next yard work undertaking, but whenever that happens to be, you bet I will be going with the Quick Lawn seed

Luminess Air Brush: Infomercial Review

Now, as a man, I would know just as much about make up as my wife knows about internal combustion engines. When I am forced to look for something in her make up drawer it’s hard to tell if what I see are beauty products or a chemistry set. BUT like a well oiled and maintained engine, I do know something about efficiency, which the Luminess Air Brush seems to provide.

It’s basically a scaled down version of what you paint a car with, except you fill it with makeup. And if the models they used in the infomercial is any indication of what my wife can look like after using it, well I already have my credit card out. We have all heard about that “air brushed” look that the models have in magazines. Us guys know that look because every time we are caught looking at some magazine cover in the checkout line we are told, “You know she doesn’t really look like that, that is all air brushing.” Us Guys usually respond with, “What? Who? Oh I wasn’t looking at that I was just reminiscing about our wedding day and thinking about how happy and content I am with my life” when we are really thinking, “WHAT IS AIRBRUSHING AND HOW CAN WE GET IT FOR YOU?”

Well it looks like we finally have that chance. Not to mention the fact that it does in seconds what it takes my wife an hour to do. So it’s really a win win for us guys, she can look BETTER FASTER. Plus her friend already has one…and she looks great. Not that I was looking…
