February 2021 Purchases: Initial Impressions (Featuring Brooklinen, Wardani, Apple, Air Quality Testers)

3/30/2021

0 Comments

 
Making your living space more comfortable, fun, and safe is always a good idea. Here are some things I tried recently!

Tacocat Spelled Backwards Game from Exploding Kittens

Picture
The makers of Exploding Kittens just released a new game called Tacocat Spelled Backwards. If you love an easy, fun game and palindromes (when a word or phrase is the same backwards and forewards) you’ll have a lot of fun with Tacocat Spelled Backwards. It's a very quick to learn and quick to play game to enjoy with someone you're sheltering in place with. Plus It’s only $15!

Every game I've tried from the makers ofExploding Kittens has been a blast.

Brooklinen Tufted Bath Rug, Silk Eye Mask, Classic Pillow Cases, and Washcloth Assortment

I made my second Brooklinen purchase after the waffle towels (here and here).
​
Initial impressions:

Washcloths

Of the washcloth series, I think the best all around choice is the Classic/MidPlush. I also tried the waffle, ultralight, mid plush, super plush... basically I tried one of each wash cloth type brooklinen currently offers. You can read the full wash cloth comparison here and it may help you decide which full towel set is best for you!
​
Brooklinen Silk Eyemask
I also snagged a silk eyemask with some rewards points - it is sooo soft. The only bummer is that it is a little loose on my head. I wish it was a little more fitted for me. Sidenote: The box is worth geeking out over! Its suchhhh a nice box and has a magnetic closure. If you get it, you get it.

Brooklinen Tufted Bath Rug
Finally I ordered the Brooklinen tufted bath rug to replace a (literally) 10-year old bath rug from ikea. This rug is made in Portugal and it’s not really a soft, cushiony type of rug, but it is really nice quality. I can see why it has the price it does. The one thing I dislike about it is how long it takes to dry.

Brooklinen Review Brooklinen Tufted Bath Rug
At this point I have interacted with Brooklinen Customer service three times, and I have to say they are fantastic. They are very responsive about any issues you may have. I have chatted with them and gone via email. I had a question about points crediting after leaving a review and  I had feedback about an item that was damaged on arrival. They were awesome. But one of my favorite things was after your interaction they sent you a survey and you could give feedback on the person who helped you including if you thought they deserved a coffee, lunch, or Brooklinen swag from the company! I thought this was too cool!!

Wardani Lambskin Leather Headband

Wardani Lambskin Leather Headband Made in Brooklyn NY
​An easy everyday headband is on my capsule wardrobe ISO list. I decided to try the Wardani lambskin leather headband made in Brooklyn ny. I ordered from etsy here. First impressions: This headband is very lightweight and beautifully made. It’s not too tight on my head at all and feels comfortable. One regret I’m having is I ordered it in black for versatility, but now I wish I would have gone for the beautiful red leather or gold. For quality, I expect this headband to last as long as I want it to be in my collection.  

Air Pods Pro Replacement

Not really a purchase, since it didn’t cost anything but just to say if you’re having trouble with your AirPods Pro audio (if older than Oct 2020), reach out to apple support in case it’s an issue covered under their quality program. They’ll send you a replacement, put a hold on your credit card until you send back the originals, and then refund your card. (Unless you’re trying to scam them. Don’t do that.) So this is more of a PSA - don’t procrastinate, just hop on the chat with them and let them know what’s going on so they can trouble shoot or replace if needed.

Air Quality Testers

Tested a couple of air quality monitors including this EG indoor air quality monitor. Didn’t love this one and actually returned it and bought the Awair Element Indoor Air Quality monitor. The design is sleek and modern and it integrates with an app. You can track your air quality over time and get alerts with any concerning changes. It’s comforting to know the air quality in your home is safe or to be alerted to make adjustments to improve it. Sometimes that just means opening a window or turning on a fan to get some circulation. The Awair Element Indoor Air Quality monitor is pretty sensitive. If you’re cooking without the fan on, it will sense it in the other end of the house before you can even smell food cooking back there. This is really a great investment for most people spending more time at home and working from home because improving your air quality will doubtless improve your mood, productivity, and overall health!

Quince

After trying quince towels (review here) I decided to fill some wardrobe gaps with their silk camis and button up. I later ordered a pair of sweatpants for the Mr. and their Extra Fine Australian Merino Cardigan. Overall really pleased with the items. They do seem to be coming up with new items very fast and their prices are pretty low compared to other brands, so make out of that what you will. I still think buying one cardigan and having it for years from a brand like quince is a better choice than buying 5 cheap, low quality cardigans that barely make it through a season. Progress over perfection! If you want to check out quince here’s $10 off.

AceTaken Ring Light & Phone Suspension Arm Stand

With all the videoconferencing we’re all doing these days not to mention other hobbies, I decided to finally get a ring light and overhead phone mount.This one was about $40 on amazon and so far I’m pleased. I like that it isn’t a chip clip style grip at the end of the arms, but it is actually a clamp, so it’s highly adjustable to fit on the ends of your desk, table, counter, wherever. I’m using an IPhone 10 Xs Max and I haven’t had any problems with it holding the phone securely.

Tradlands Lakeland Dress

Tradlands Shirt Dress
I snagged a secondhandTradlands Lakeland Dress at a huge bargain and I totally love it. I’ve been wanting to try Tradlands for a while now and this secondhand purchase gave me a lot of confidence. The quality is great, this is a piece that is made to last. A new piece is something you will save up for, but if cared for, should last for years based on this purchase at least. Get $25 off Tradlands here.
