Byers\' The Big Bobber Floating Cooler - Red/ White Review

Byers\' The Big Bobber Floating Cooler - Red/ White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This Bobber Cooler is definitely a conversation piece. I have had so many comments about it. I used it when floating down a small river near home (No Rapids, just calm water), it doesn't hold its weight, literally. The first thing is that the opening is in the center of the cooler, making it impossible to get drinks out with out pulling the whole cooler out of the water. The opening seam rides just barely about the water, and since it is round the weight shifts a little and the seam will dip into the water. The cooler then fills up with water, which almost immediatly melts the ice, and as it fills up it will sink to the bottom. maybe if there was a rubber gasket to seal it better, it might be ok. The 2 plastic clasps on each side used to close the cooler are really easy to break off, plus they are facing the wrong direction. If you bump something like a rock or a log, it will push the clasp back and then unlatch the cooler.
This cooler might be good to use in bodys of water that do not have current, like a pool, but I don't suggest towing it behind anything. I suggest using one of the many inflateble coolers on the market.

Average Reviews:

I was very disappointed that the liner was not stainless steel. It arrived with the handel popped off, but as I have a machinist in the house we were able to fix it instead of having to pay postage to return. If I had saw the liner was not stainless steel before he fixed it I would have returned it.

DIG Irrigation BC380 Evaporative Mist Cooling System, 3/8" Line Review

DIG Irrigation BC380 Evaporative Mist Cooling System, 3/8 Line
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I wanted an inexpensive misting set to get my mom on mothers day and this was perfect. I searched around and other sets were either poorly rated or far too expensive for my tastes.
I followed the directions for these misters (which were sparse, but enough). It contains 50 feet of hose but recommends 30-40 feet of usable coverage (the remaining ten for scaling up/around a wall). I ended up using about 32 feet which was all I needed, with the ten misters spaced about 2.5 feet apart (with small gaps near the corners and support posts of the patio). The set even comes with a line connector which you could use if you happened to cut the line too short. We like them so much, we are already thinking about extending the line, but we would want to buy some more nozzle heads ( http://www.digcorp.com/DIY/226-Cooling_Mist_Kits_&_Accessories/diy_products ).
I bought some other supplies at Home Depot and got to see the sets they sell in action (Orbit). They are more expensive and the lines looked a little more difficult to assemble. Their spray pattern also seemed to have heavier drops to me, because the streams didn't spread and dissipate quite like these. The Orbit misting nozzles had metal tips on those while these are plastic. That worried me a little until I saw how easy the Ocean Breeze heads are to remove. I didn't have any problems with clogging when they were installed, but they should be very easy to clean. Furniture within about 1-1.5 feet of the misters can get wet, but this was not a problem for us.

Dinuba Stainless Steel Water Dispenser 25 Liter Review

Dinuba Stainless Steel Water Dispenser 25 Liter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using water dispensers for a while and some how they all work fine. The problem with them is that they are made out of plastic. No more than a year and you have to start thinking how to replace the dispenser. Having a water dispenser made out of stainless steel secures me that it will run on the middle and long term. I am pretty sure I made a good decision with this dispenser ... works great!

Purified water should be stored in either a glass or stainless steel containers to maintain purity. Until now there has not been a good stainless steel alternative. Dinuba Stainless Steel Water Dispensers are imported from Italy and are made of the highest quality 18/10 stainless steel. Originally used to dispense olive oil this beautifully designed stainless steel container is easy to clean with dish soap. The top, reminiscent of antique milk cans, has a large screw top opening and two handles. The dispenser top can remain closed for dispensing because of the built in screw air vent. The vent allows air in without contamination. The spigot/faucet is a push button type and is a stainless steel fitting, water does not come into contact with any plastic. Dinuba's classically designed Stainless Steel Water Dispensers offer convenient, lightweight water transport, as well as stylish countertop or refrigerator dispensing. Ideal for the home environment and more rough and tumble environments where glass is not a good option such as RV, boating and camping........... 25 liters is 6.6 gallons. Overall dimensions are 14 x 14 x 13 inches tall. Stand not included.

Coleman 6-Day 58 Qt. Ultimate Xtreme Cooler Review

Coleman 6-Day 58 Qt. Ultimate Xtreme Cooler
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered the cooler for a five day river trip. It held ice six days, despite not protecting it from the sun while we were on the river. We started the trip with two and a half 10 pound blocks of ice. (If you buy cubes, don't expect the ice to last six days). As far as I am concerned, it met the 6 day specification. Our friends has the Coleman Xtreme cooler, which did just about as well, so that would also be a good choice.
Note that it is smaller inside than you would expect from the outside dimensions, due to the thick insulation. The thick insulation is needed to keep things cold for six days.

Between myself and other family members, we have tried 3 or 4 different mister brands. Have had pretty mixed results so far with inconsistent nozzles, and durability in the hot AZ sun.
I've put the Mistymate brand setup at two houses now, and both work spray more consistently than all the others we've tried. Puts out a nice fine mist, and seems to be manufactured very well!
