My friends niece is a huge unicorn fan, so she was over the moon excited to play with this toy. She immediately dug into the package, but made sure to read about everything that was included. She loved all of the accessories, but wished they were a little bigger and easier to use. She loved the colours on the unicorn, the Layla doll and all the accessories, but wanted the unicorns legs to move. All in all, thr quality was great but perhaps a little too rigid, a softer plastic would have been better suited for my friend's niece, but she loved it all the same. I would definitely be interested in more toys from Spin Master for family and friends. -

Since moving into our new house last fall, I haven't hung as many pictures as I would like. So receiving this free
Mastercraft General Tool Set & Picture Hanging Kit gives me the perfect reason to get those hung up now. 😀👍
The 7 piece kit comes with everything needed to hang any type of wall picture, right down to a small carrying case with an external pocket to hold everything included, and more.
The weight of the hammer was appropriate & proportionate to the size of the hammer head. This hammer may not be well intended for larger hands. I asked my husband to hang the picture, & he struggled with it as the handle was just too short, but for my smaller hands it worked just fine. 🔨
The carpenters pencils that were included, were an odd choice, a thick rounded pencil would have been a better choice. Using the pencil sharpener with these pencils was quite awkward, & I found it wasted a lot of the pencil. ✏️
The kit came with two different levels. One of which can be rotated for different angles, but I'm not sure when I would ever have a need for this specific type. They were also both magnetic, which is both good & bad; good that you can stick it to a fridge or similar for easy access, but also bad as the magnets got stuck to everything metal nearby. 📏
The hardware pack includes nails, screws, wall hooks, wire & drywall plugs. The first nail we used, bent immediately, so perhaps not the strongest nails, but can be replaced with others you may have on hand. This kit makes the assumption that someone already has a drill & drillbits on hand, so it's more of an addition to what sets you already have rather than an all-in-one set.
My overall opinion of this set is that it's great for small hanging jobs around the house where you just need a few small tools on hand. I only wish it also included a small measuring tape, as that felt like the one thing missing. The carrying bag makes it quite easy to move around, so it would be a nice set for someone starting out on their own, or for a small space. I've left it in my office closet where I can easily access it whenever I need to hang another picture.

Talk about good timing. I receieved this free product to test, and luckily it arrived just before a few heavy snowfalls hit our Niagara region. ❄️🌨⛄️
It mentioned being great for relief of ache and pains of muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments occurring from sport activities, but I can attest that it is also a fantastic option after shoveling your driveway.
I've used other brands in the past, and have always found the smell of their products to be overwhelming, so I stopped using them. But I was thrilled that this is an odour free option, and it truly didn't have a strong scent, so that was a huge thumbs up for me. 👍

I tend to overindulge during the Christmas holidays, so I was excited to give this a go. I've been letdown before, so I wasn't getting my hopes up, but this time, I was wrong. The capsules had no taste and were easy to swallow, and to make it even better, they work quickly. I was feeling so bloated and sluggish after a meal, and shortly after taking this I was feeling back to normal. I love this product, and it will now be joining my medicine cabinet permanently and I will be recommending it to everyone. -

I have combination skin with a few acne prone spots so I was curious to see how this product would work for me. It's more of a creamy texture as opposed to a foaming, but it washes off easily. It cleaned my face just fine, but I did find that it was leaving my skin dry and a little sensitive, so I had to reduce using it to every other day. My biggest complaint is the smell, it is a very strong bleach smell that is very hard to tolerate. Once you wipe it from your face, the smell is gone, but if a product smells that offensive while using it, it's not the right product for me and I wouldn't reach for it on my next shopping trip.

I was very excited to try this new product, and loved that it was free of Alcohol and dyes. I've been using this product for a few weeks now, and Dazzling Mint flavour is nice, leaving my teeth feeling very clean and fresh. It recommends swishing for 2 minutes, but even with it being Alcohol free, the taste became very strong and had a burning feel to it, so I had to keep it shorter to swishing for around 30 seconds instead. Unfortunately, the one downfall of this product is that I didn't notice any change in my teeth colouring at all. I'll continue to use the product in hopes that it might take longer than 2 weeks to notice a change, but I'm not holding out on this being the case. Although it's a great mouthwash overall, I don't think I'd purchase it due to the high price and ineffectiveness of the main purpose it was meant for, teeth whitening.

I received this litter for free to try and right away I liked the scent, lack of dust and lightweight. I'm already an Arm & Hammer user, so the switch was easy enough for us. My kitty wasn't a huge fan of the new litter at first, she mostly just played in it unsure on what it was for, but she figured it out and it does absorb odours and shrink down waste. Although I like this product, I'm not sure I can justify the price as it will last me no more than a month, whereas my current product can last upwards of several months at the same cost

I received this free product to try out, and I was not let down.
The first thing I noticed was that it came in an easy to open container that is resealable - no more of those hard to open packets.
The smell was very nice and instantly noticed the beef. It mixed effortlessly into my meals and was a great addition to my gravy and stir fry dishes.
I would definitely buy this product again and will recommend it to others. Thanks for the chance to try this product for free.
