UberHeat Ceramic Heater
What's to love: Warms up a small room quickly.
What does it do: Our tester said this small heater, made by Honeywell, was quick to heat up her small living room. Just over 10-inches tall, the round compact heater has two power settings, low and high. The low power setting uses less electricity and is more energy efficient. A thermostat allows the user to adjust the temperature setting. Safety features include a tip-over switch that disables the heater if knocked over, and a thermal cut-off fuse that will shut the heater down if it operates at a higher-than-normal temperature. The space heater is available in black or white, has a three-year limited warranty and sells for $39.99.
Barbarian Bar Tool
What's to love: Some enjoy a mixed drink at the end of the day, more than just a splash of sauce on the rocks, and this tool is a quicker means to that end.
What does it do: This heavy-duty all-in-one bar tool is perfect for the mixologist or home bartender. In addition to the citrus press for fresh juice there are eight others: a jigger, a corkscrew, a small knife for slicing, zester, bottle opener, channel knife for making perfect citrus peel spirals, a can lance and a small blade for removing the foil on a wine bottle. The Barbarian sells for $59.99.
