Liberty Bottleworks is the only metal water bottle manufacturer in the USA, and luckily they are a design-centric company with fun printed designs and custom printing options. Bottles come in a variety of sizes, colors and easy quarter-turn lid designs. They are made with deep-drawn recycled aluminum construction for greater precision and durability (less dings!).
Physical design includes BPA-free, flexible food-grade coating ensures no chips or flakes in your water. The wide mouth opening allows for ice cubes and the tapered shape promotes smooth pouring.

Meco has a solid reputation for electric and charcoal grills -as they have been at it since 1959! Read the user reviews and you’ll see this could be the grill for you – especially if you have a condo or apartment balcony, the electric grills are very clean, simple and reliable (and easy to maintain), and the tabletop models are easily portable.
Models come in many permutations – they come in different colors, and some have wheels, some are for tabletop, and some have simple legs. Others come with one, two, or zero folding side-tables. The smokers are versatile because you can adjust volume by adding ore removing extension segments.
The catalog is great because they have a special “Made in USA” section!

Bemis: Toilet Seats in Multiple Sizes and Styles
:: Great prices :: Many styles, sizes and hinge options :: Widely available
Bemis toilet seats can be found at Home Depot and more. I recently installed the great Bemis seat with the brushed metal hinge (top row #3), and although the mounting hardware is not what I’m familiar with, it seemed a definite improvement over the older designs. The threads are metal and there is a plastic grommet with flexible flanges that really cranks into the porcelain hole (meaning no seat wiggle!). Very likely the most beautiful toilet seat I’ve ever seen, lol! Very sexy hinges.
The website will help you choose the right color and depth for your toilet model.
