Shopping DIY Tools From Your Couch, That Is!

With everyone trying to do their shopping from home and using this extra time for DIY projects, we thought it would be a good time to highlight our favorite tools from our very own Rosie on the House Ecommerce Store. Our store features over 45 products we love and all of them have been Rosie, Romey and Jennifer tested!

We have each listed 3 of our favorite eStore products below:

Rosie's Favorites

Quickloader 1500 lb 12 ft with S-hooks

Quickloader retractable is a new and unique, retractable tie-down. It's faster, easier and cleaner to use than traditional tie-downs. It reduces the time spent on loading and unloading. You can avoid "spaghetti" and dangerous loose webbing and ensure safe transportation of loads.

"I'm forever securing a load of one type or another in the bed of my truck or on a trailer. Historically, I've accomplished this with multiple strength ropes and lots of freighter's knots. I was forever coiling and uncoiling rope which required storage when not in use. For that reason, the Quickloader Tie-Downs are the one item in the store I use the most. I store a couple under the seat of the truck and I'm ready for loads of construction material, lawn mowers, motorcycles or camping gear whenever the need arises." – Rosie Romero

Danik Hook Stainless Steel Universal Hook

Simply attach one end of your line to whatever your anchor point might be and the other end through the line passage in the Danik Hook. The line slides freely through the passage when the Danik Hook lever is pushed down but is held firmly in place when released. A unique mechanism grips the line at the desired location, easily adapting the line to any length without ever tying a knot.

"For all of the same reasons listed above, I really like the ease of securing loads with the Danik Hook. Are you seeing a pattern here? I confess to having a compulsive obsession with securing loads on my vehicles. It all goes back to an incident in 1973 when I didn't. I really paid the price for not securing a load and fortunately no one was injured in that debacle! Intersection of Rural and University, Whew! Still gives me sweats to remember it." – Rosie Romero

Valley Forge Flag Co. American Flag

Beautiful and sturdy, this 3'x5' 2-ply spun polyester U.S. flag comes with brass grommets. This flag has sewn stripes and embroidered stars.

"And because I feel everyone should display Old Glory, especially one made in America, I'd have to say the Koralex II American Flag by Valley Forge Flag Company is my favorite item in our estore. It just kinda chaps me to see all the American flags available that are made outside the USA!" – Rosie Romero

Romey's Favorites

Earth Talon Shovel

Jon Curry, president of Curry Toolworks is an inventor from Chino Valley, Arizona. Curry Toolworks was established to sell the Earth Talon shovel, which Jon conceived while digging in his own garden of tough Arizona soil. The innovative design of the Earth Talon comes from Jon's knowledge of physics, materials, and his desire to create and have the right tool for the job!

"The talon blade turns this into much more than a shovel. While out doing chores, I can carry the Talon Shovel with me and dig, chop or week all with one tool. The wider footstep gives great foot support. They are so well made. My favorite is the fiberglass handle as it does not shrink and expand like wood. Because of that the blade stays secure to the handle. Just remember to store it out of the Arizona sun." – Romey Romero

Rosie on the House MX400P Safety Glasses HexArmor's polarized lens technology blocks unnecessary and unwanted glare from workers' sight, allowing them to perceive their surroundings more accurately. Protection against reflections and optical irritations also allows for great visual comfort, safeguarding against eye strain and fatigue.

"I have tried buying expensive sunglasses before only to lose them. The Hex Armor Polarized MX400 glasses work hard to keep my eyes safe while I am outside chopping wood, weed eating or using the nail gun. My eyes are super sensitive to the sun, so the polarized feature lets me get my work done outside while keeping my eyes protected." – Romey Romero
