Portable Foldable Kitchen Scale from Newline
Several foldable kitchen scales can be found, though many models force you to hang them on the wall. This original design isn’t just compact, it looks good too. And when folded, you can hang it on a towel or utensil rack. Seems a great Mother’s Day gift to me.

USB Charger Integrated in Outlet – TruePower
We’ve been writing a lot about the ideal multi-charger solution to get rid of cable clutter. But most of those devices don’t come cheap, and they still need to be stored somewhere when not in use. The TruePower outlet, however, has integrated USB ports. Just plug in your portable device, and it charges directly from the outlet – no separate USB charger required.

Compact Folding Ladder for Home Use A few weeks ago we told you about a telescoping ladder that can even reach to your roof. Another type of ladder that’s annoying when it comes to stowing it in your home is the classic folding ladder. With this type as well, designers have been very creative recently, developing models that can even fit in the corner of your closet if space is really tight.

Free Remote PC Support for Your Relatives – Netviewer
A few months ago, we posted an article on ShowMyPC, a free software package that helps you to control someone else’s PC remotely from your own chair at home. Ideal for helping relatives and friends when they're stuck with their computer. But when I’d been using ShowMyPC for some time, I noticed that it didn’t work in every situation. When either myself or the other person was working from behind a strict company firewall, connection wasn’t possible. In that kind of situation, Netviewer Support can help out.

Telescoping Ladder now Extends to 15.5 Feet
I love telescoping ladders. They’re extremely compact and easy to stow compared to the classical alternatives that always get in the way in your basement or garage. Those are really difficult to handle when you need them around the house – or worse, elsewhere. The telescopic alternatives, however, often weren’t up to the “serious” tasks on your roof or drainpipe. But now the new models reach up to 15.5 ft!

Shoe Storage – Floor to Ceiling
The most original attempt at a versatile shoe rack is the Rakku wheel design. But this floor-to-ceiling shoe rack is another great alternative. It takes up only 144 square inches of floor space and can still hold 36 pairs of shoes.

Doc XL Convertible Sofa from Bonbon Converts into Bunk Bed Convertible sofas are typically used, for instance, in rental holiday homes where space is limited and the number of sleepers can vary. Another useful application is for people who invite friends over regularly but who don’t have the space for one or more guestrooms. So far so good – but what if your guests aren’t a couple and don’t fancy sleeping in the same bed? This Doc XL bunk bed solution from Bonbon is very original and, as far as I know, unique.

Steam Cookers or Simpler, Cheaper, Less-Bulky Alternatives such as the Sleekstor™ VeggiSteam™?
Steam cookers – do we need them? Of course we don’t: Mankind has been cooking vegetables in water for thousands of years. But, honestly, once you’ve tasted broccoli or green beans cooked in a steam cooker, there’s no going back. The vegetables are simply much more tasty – and healthier as well. But it’s yet another appliance, and most electric steam cookers take up considerable space in your kitchen cabinet. Steam baskets basically perform the same task, but they have a more compact design. There are already many varieties, and now there’s yet a new and versatile one, and it carries the name of SleekStor™ VeggiSteam™.

Kenmore Pizza Maker & Microwave ComboI suppose that nowadays nobody can do without a microwave oven anymore – I certainly can't. On the other hand, when baking or warming a pizza, or food such as cookies, a microwave doesn't give you the crispy result you would like. Ideally, you need to own a microwave and a traditional oven. For those who are living in a small apartment or student accommodation, thus far the solution would be to buy a combo oven. But this lets you use either the oven or the microwave – not both at the same time. The Kenmore Combo is a new space-saving idea offering simultaneous use of microwave and oven in a compact design.
