Having grown up in the '80s/'90s, I own all of the Nintendo consoles from the original NES to the Switch. The Switch is a big change from previous consoles and a welcome one. The kids love the system and we are glad that we made the purchase.
Pros
- Variety of games from kids to mature
- Portability: connect easily to the TV and can be quickly changed to the portable option
- Ease of use
- Variety of accessories
Cons
- Small cartridges which makes them easy to lose especially with younger kids
- Difficult for children to take the controllers off of the portable screen/system portion

I was gifted a Dyson four years ago after my vacuum bit the dust. My home is all hardwood/laminate flooring with the exception of a few area rugs. I also have stairs. The Dyson is superior to any other vacuum I've owned before. The suction and quality is a cut above the rest.
Pro
- Cordless
- Light-weight and easy to carry and maneuver all over the house including all flooring types and stairs
- great suction!
- picks up what other vacuums have left behind
- easy to install charging/storage system
- great attachment pieces
- easy to empty cannister
- great customer service
Cons
- Price is very expensive (but in my opinion worth it)
- Like most cordless systems, the battery loses its charge quicker as it ages
- Takes several charges to vacuum our whole house (5 bedroom)

I have three children - aged 14, 8 & 2 years. I bottle fed all three children and used Playtex bottles for each of them. Because of the age difference, I've used different models of the bottle with each child. I was very pleased with my experience with my older two children; however, the new bottles that Playtex uses (that adjust/bend as needed) leak all of the time! In total I've used approximately 20 bottles both 4 & 8 oz size and all of them leak if tilted sideways with caps on! It's incredibly frustrating having to pack bottles in a diaper bag only to open the bag up and find leaked formula/milk all over because they were not kept upright. Because this is my final child and we invested so much in bottles and nipples, we will stick with the product until we are completely done with bottles. However, if I had known that I would have problems like this before hand, I would have opted for a different brand of bottle. The design needs a change! -

I have tried countless brands of paper towels over the years, and I have always been rather disappointed except for Bounty select-a-size. They are not the cheapest brand but I find the product to be superior to other more cost effective brands. They are strong and hold well together without tearing and most importantly, for me, I love love love the select-a-size option! I hate to use a 'traditionally whole' piece of paper towel because 98% of the time, I don't need to use that much and it ends up creating a lot more waste than needed! So even though it does cost more than other brands, by using less, I'm not purchasing paper towels as much. This is my go-to paper towel and have no intention of switching brands. -

I have been using these wipes since my toddler was a few months old. I initially started with a cheaper brand of wipes to save our household money. However, I was unable to tear the wipes in half like I could with Huggies wipes. I found that it was actually more cost effective to buy the Huggies brand of wipes and tear them in half, which is great because I find these particular wipes to work great on sensitive skin! (I often find a whole wipe is too much and can be wasteful) Would definitely recommend! -
