How to Choose Bathroom Scales

A bathroom scale is a common fixture in many homes. The bathroom is the perfect location. You can get a true weight measurement when you’re fresh out of the shower. It doesn’t matter if you’re using a scale to track your diet progress or you use it just to keep an eye on your health. Here are a few tips on how to choose bathroom scales.

  • Style: There are scales that will fit every bathroom style and budget. You can find a budget unit for a few dollars up to high-end glass plate scales. Just look for a unit that fits your bathroom décor and has the features that you require.
  • Features: Once again this is a budget consideration. You can get a plain dial scale for a few dollars or if you want to track your health more closely you can find a scale that will measure, weight, body fat, bone density, water percentage, and body mass index. You can even find electronic scales that will measure in metric if you prefer.
  • Readout: Look for a scale that has a large easy to read display. If you can’t see the numbers while you’re standing on the scale it won’t do you much good.
  • Type of scale: You can go with a typical dial scale that will be fairly accurate all the way up to the doctor style scales that have a sliding weight for a more accurate reading.
  • Calibration: Nothing is more frustrating than jumping on a scale and seeing you’ve put on a few pounds. You want to make sure that’s a truthful reading! Make sure you get a scale where you can adjust the zero point. Check the zero point every time you use it for consistency and accuracy.

How to choose bathroom scales is pretty simple. Just figure out what features you want and what style works for your bathroom and you’ll find the perfect scale for your home


It’s really easy to clutter up a bathroom. You need to find a way to store hair care products, make up, shaving supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shower products and cleaning supplies. With so many different items needing a home in the bathroom chances are the counter and shower spaces are prime real estate. Here are a few bathroom storage tips to keep everything organized and accessible.

  • Zoning the bathroom counter top: A good place to get started is assigning each like product to a particular area of the counter top. For instance use the back left hand side for your shaving products and the back right hand side for oral hygiene. By giving each like group its own real estate everything will stay better organized.
  • Invest in organizers: To increase the amount of storage area available, consider purchasing bathroom organizers. A toothbrush holder will take up a minimal amount of space but it will let you keep the brushes, toothpaste and dental floss all together in a tight spot. Consider a men’s valet for your shaving products and hang it on a hook next to the mirror to move storage off the counter top and onto a vertical space.
  • Under the sink: If you have an under sink cabinet this is the perfect place to store your cleaning supplies. A good way to keep them tidy is to put a small basket inside the cabinet and then store the supplies inside the basket. This will keep them from falling over and rolling around.
  • Organizing the shower: The inside of a shower doesn’t provide much storage space other than a soap dish or perhaps a corner of the tub. You can add to that space by purchasing shower organizers that hang from a towel rack or the showerhead. It certainly beats knocking everything into the tub when you have to reach behind a bunch of shampoo bottles to get to the conditioner.

These are just a few bathroom storage tips. With a little creativity you’ll have a well-kept neat and organized bath.


Review: Aquatopia Safety Easy Bath Kneeler

aquatopia-deluxe-safety-easy-bath-kneelerBath time can be a great time to share with your baby but good grief it can be hard on your knees, elbows and back.  Kneeling on a cold hard ceramic tile floor with your elbows pressed into the edge of a porcelain tub really isn’t the most comfortable thing you can do.

You have probably tried kneeling on a bathmat with a rolled up towel placed on the tub edge. You have probably noticed that bathmats don’t have any sort of comfort padding whatsoever and that rolled up towels have a tendency to slide into a tub full of water. These two reasons are why you will be so happy with the Aquatopia Safety Easy Bath Kneeler.

The Aquatopia Deluxe Safety Easy Bath Kneeler is a really smart idea. It’s a padded bathmat and tub drape. It has ample padding for your knees and elbows. It even has built in pockets to hold different soaps and shampoos.  And it can be tossed into the washer and dryer with out any special considerations.


You will find that the Aquatopia bath kneeler is easy to store as it simply folds and unfolds in seconds meaning it’s not a huge ordeal to try to get the whole thing assembled at bath time.

  • The Aquatopia Safety Easy Bath Kneeler’s compact size when folded up allows for a multitude of storage options.
  • The neoprene construction sticks to the side of the tub so you aren’t sliding back and forth when you shift your weight from one side to the other.
  • The entire unit can be tossed into the washing machine and hung up to dry.
  • It’s made from neoprene so you don’t have to worry about mold and mildew growing on it.
  • Several storage pockets for bath products are a great feature. We didn’t have to constantly stand up or lean across the tub to reach a bar of soap or a bottle of shampoo.


pinzon-bamboo-cotton-towelBamboo is big these days. It’s an eco-friendly alternative to traditional cotton blends.

Bamboo is a sustainable renewable resource that grows in hardly any time at all. It can grow in a variety of environments, which means it won’t compete for valuable farmland or forests. It’s really amazing how soft they can make bamboo.

Bamboo products these days come in more shapes and sizes from every day before. You can find them in every thing from blinds to door mats to sheets.

The Pinzon Bamboo Cotton Towel is about to become your new favorite bathroom linen.

The towel is a blend of 70 percent bamboo and 30 percent cotton. The great thing about this blend is it mixes in the best of both worlds. You get the eco-friendliness of bamboo as well as its soft silk luxurious feel along with the moisture absorbing property of cotton.

There are a couple things to consider with the Pinzon bamboo cotton towel. Since it isn’t the traditional 100% cotton towel, it will need a little bit different cleaning. Wash it in cold water and dry on low temperature. It doesn’t have the same thickness of a cotton towel but still feels heavier.

Another great thing about these towels is they dry much faster than a traditional 100% cotton one.  While they’ll soak up plenty of moisture they release it just as quickly. You no longer have to worry about a damp towel that starts to stink after 1 or two uses. In a roundabout way this helps with being eco-friendly, less washing equals less energy and water used.

Things We Like:

  • The soft plush feel of the Pinzon bamboo cotton towel
  • Pinzon bamboo cotton towels are available in many different colors to suit any bathroom décor.
  • The price and quality of the towels make them a real bargain compared to traditional cotton towels. You get a lot of luxury for a really low price.

A Guide to Water Saving Shower Heads

Alsons Fluidics Showerhead

Saving water is a great way to save the environment. There are all sorts of ways to do it. Water your lawn less frequently, use low flow toilets, and finally water saving faucets and showerheads. There are so many water saving showerhead options out there that it can be a bit mind boggling to find just the right one for your home. Here’s a guide to water saving shower heads that can help demystify what you need to look for.

All water saving showerheads work basically the same way, they restrict the flow of water coming out of the unit. This doesn’t mean you have to settle for a shower under the equivalent of a leaking faucet though.

The most important thing to look for is a shower head that has an aerator built into it. The water consumption will be much less but the aerator will provide a bit higher pressure so you won’t even notice the difference. Aerators work by adding air into the water supply. The increase in volume makes it feel like you’re still standing under a regular shower. If your shower head doesn’t have an aerator then chances are you won’t be happy with it.

There’s a simpler way to save water though. Look for a showerhead that has a cut off built into the showerhead itself. This let’s you completely turn off the water flow with just a push of a button. You get wet, turn the water off, lather up, then turn the water back on to rinse off saving gallons of water. You also have the added bonus of not having to readjust the hot and cold-water knobs. When you turn the water back on it’s at the exact temperature you set it at.

When looking for showerheads the two biggest features that will save you water are an aerator and a water cutoff. By incorporating these two features you can save hundreds of gallons a month and cut down your water bill.
