Great Shower Head and Hose At A Great Price



I love having a hand held shower head. It comes in hand so often. I also like having one that I can install by myself!

Epica's Hand Held Shower Head is perfect for this. When I got it I was surprised at how easy it was going to be to install. Me and plumbing have never really gotten along. But the instructions with the kit were simple, easy to understand and follow.


Installing the shower head should not take anyone more than 10 minutes. In fact, it should probably take less. It is so simple to remove the old shower head and have the new one up. And no leaks for us! Nice!!


I love the long hose that comes with it. It is much longer than other ones we have had in the past. It's 80" and is made so it does not kink up. So far it never has! I also like that the shower head itself is light weight. We had one once that seemed so heavy and when using it to wash the dog my arms got tired. This one with the hose is much lighter and will be so much nicer to use for dog washing!


The shower head has 3 settings, which make it nice to do different things. All of them have plenty of pressure and the forceful one is perfect for getting our dog's hair rinsed well and really cleaning off things that are dirty that you might wash in your tub (Spring Cleaning!!).

This is a great shower head and hose for an awesome price. Very reasonable and super easy to use!

Tired Of Your Fitted Sheets Coming Off In The Night? This Can Help That Problem!



Here is a truth you may not think about too often, if ever. Not all sheets are made equal. Okay I know, there are tons of styles and designs. But I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about size. The same goes for mattresses. 

Not all sheets are the same measurements. They can be off from each other by as much as 4". And then you have deep pockets, regular sized pockets, and more. So what happens. The corners inevitably slip off after one or two nights of sleep, which honestly, is a pain and you end up getting all disgomboobalated (my Mom's favorite term) in the sheets. Not fun!


Epica has made some really nifty Bedding Anchors to help solve that problem. There have been bedding clips for a long time, but none like these. I've tried other bed clips and none have worked like these. The clips always come unclipped on other ones. Epica has solved that problem.


The clip grasps the material without metal teeth that could rip and tear the material. The plastic grips inside the clip hold the material secure and tight without damaging it. But it doesn't stop there.


There is a nifty adjustable cord lock button to help snugly secure the bedding clips and they stay in place no matter how much you toss or turn. Believe me, I was the perfect test for these. I toss and turn a lot every night. Not once have the clips come undone or have the corners of the sheets come off. I'm a happy camper.


It's fairly easy to attach the clips. The first couple of times it's kind of awkward moving the mattress and figuring out how to get them on. But once you have done it a couple of times, it's easy!

What I love is that they can be used for more than just your sheets. These are perfect to take along for picnics to help hold down tablecloths. They would even work for just in the house to keep you tablecloth in place, you know for those people who lean a lot and always shift it around. The tablecloth would stay in place securely and you don't have to worry about the fabric tearing because of the special coated plastic grips.

The clips are nickel-plated so they won't rust and will hold up to lots of use, so these would eve work going to the beach and holding towels in place.

I love these Epica Bedding Anchors! Very handy!!

Need Some Secure Footing?



We have a big garden-style tub in our master bath. Although I love the extra space it offers for showering, it isn't easy to get in and out of. I am always very careful about my footing when doing so.

The Epica Bath Mat is helping me minimize the risk of slips and falls when I get in and out of the tub. The mat is made especially to prevent the growth of bacteria, which means that it not only helps keep us from falling but keeps us from being exposed to nasty gunk under our feet. I love that.

It's made from a heavy duty, latex free rubber, so it will hold up to a lots of use and abuse. This thing is substantial. When it arrived in the mail, I was surprised at how heavy it was. But it went down on the tub floor easily and it has stayed put the whole time; no shifting or slipping or give. It measures 16" x 28", which is good sized and works in almost any tub.


The underside has a ton of little suction cups. Most mats have larger sized ones, but these smaller ones really make a big difference. Since there are so many, most of the mat is kept securely held to the tub floor which gives you more security knowing it's not going to move. Plus they are made to adhere to even non-slip surfaces, so it will work in any style tub or shower floor.


You can see that the floor of my tub is made to be a non-slip surface, with texture built into it. The mat went onto the surface and has not moved, even after a lot of showering and one very large dog bounding in and out!


The top has a great texture that does not bother you feet but gives you a little extra traction while you are moving around. It just really adds to the feeling of security while you are showering. The texture also helps repel slippery soap residue. It's harder for it to build up on the surface, helping to not only keep your footing more secure, but making it easier to keep clean.

This is a great bath mat and I would highly recommend it to you!

A Super Handy Little Item To Have ~ The Epica Folding Step Stool



Ever find yourself where you can't reach something. You almost can, but you are just not tall enough. I find myself in that position a lot. Being only 5'5" I tend to be too short for a lot of things, especially for the cupboards in my kitchen.

The Epica Folding Step Stool has come to my rescue! Oh I have a bigger multi-step stool, but it is, well, bigger and often too big for what I need. It often does not fit in the space I need it to and it is bulky to carry around. Most of the time I just need one small step up to get what I am reaching for. That's where the Epica Folding Step Stool has really helped!

This little step stool has been so handy to have around the house. It's extremely lightweight and easy to carry around with the built-in handle. It can be opened with just one hand by tilting the legs, then it can be folded back up with just one hand by grabbing the handle.


The step on the stool is 9" x 11", so there is plenty of room to just step up on the step and both feet fit comfortably. Then when it folds down it is only 2" wide, so it can store in a lot of places!!


I really like the little anti-slip dots on the step. It gives you a more secure footing and I feel safe using it. The step stool can also hold up to 350 lbs! That's a lot for such a small little step stool! Plus the legs are placed in a way that keeps the step stool very stable. I've been on many in my days that just did not feel secure, even some much larger!

This is a great little step stool and would be a great addition to anyone's home. I can see it being used for kids in the bathroom. Just right for them to reach higher and yet you don't have to leave it out all the time. It can be folded up when they are done and put in a place where they can easily find it. I see it also being used at the bedside for some of the beds that are really high, or again, for your kids to climb in and out easily. Or how about your pet getting up and down off the bed or couch. There are lots of places this little step stool would come in handy, even in your camper or vehicles, especially since it is so compact!
