 As a wise man (or was it a frog?) once said, “It’s not easy being green.” Green is in, green is hip. But let’s face it, you are never going to get there if you keep using those paper towels like “who needs rain forests, anyhow?” Addiction is a strong word, but that’s exactly what we’ve had with disposables, and now it’s necessary to break the cycle. Lucky for us, ZorbEEZ is here to help!
A big spill in the kitchen? Grab a ZorbEEZ and pick up way more of the liquid than you would with paper towels. Plus you can throw ZorbEEZ in the washer and use them over and over. This microfiber cleaning cloth is amazingly absorbent, holding up to 20 ounces of liquid without spilling a drop. Keep ZorbEEZ in the kitchen, in the bathroom and in the garage. Our testers could not find a job that was too tough for the super absorbent Zorbeez.
Did you know the average family uses four rolls of paper towels monthly? Not only does ZorbEEZ save you that expense, it cuts back on paper waste. You’ll soon discover you’ve trained yourself to grab a Zorbeez instead of paper towels. Oh, happy day – now you are on the road to being Green (in a hybrid, of course!).

 You may think that since today’s is April Fool’s Day that we are pulling your leg with our headline. But really, you need a tractor! And not just any tractor, but the Deluxe Tractor Scoot.
Spring is here, it's almost time to start planting your garden, and we know you can't wait to get your hands in the dirt! But an aching back and painful knees might be putting a little damper on your enthusiasm. That’s where our newest find comes in: The Deluxe Tractor Scoot (love the whole John Deere look!) takes pity on your body by providing you with a comfy seat from which to plant your garden. No more painful bending over or squatting down – just have a seat and get the green thumb going. And speaking of the seat, the swiveling tractor-style seat is low enough to make planting and harvesting easy, and it is completely adjustable. The pneumatic tires not only look cool, but they also make rolling and steering the Tractor Scoot a breeze, and we love the accessory tray and basket mounts for holding all of your tools and gloves.
Although it’s designed for gardening, the Deluxe Tractor Scoot is so versatile that we think you will find many different uses for it. The do-it-yourself-ers on our staff thought it would be just the ticket for varnishing decks, installing wood floors, painting baseboards – all those jobs that require working low to the ground.
See, we weren’t kidding….don’t you need a Tractor (Scoot)? |
