Moving Kitchen Cabinets for Remodeling

Between Christmas and New Year's Eve a remodeling professional from Wyoming called with a desperate need for the Wider BigSlider™ utility mover. His partner had seen someone in Arizona moving a heavy appliance, and "it was so easy!" he insisted they get one for their business.

He was about to start on a remodeling project and needed the wider model right away. We shipped him the demo we'd used in the National Hardware Show, where we won Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award for Top 13 New Tools and DIY Network's Chris Grundy of Cool Tools shot us for their "On the Move" episode. That ran show ran on DIY from October through last November - thanks Cool Tools!

And, thank you GR from Jackson WY for saving your back on your remodeling project! Plus, we hope it saves you time and money.

Make Concrete Easy - BigSlider + CreteSheet at the World of Concrete

Concrete Projects Made Easy! Green, Back-Saving, Top Tools at the World of Concrete Feb 3-6, 2009: CreteSheet™ concrete mixer and BigSlider™ utility mover.

BigSlider will be displayed with CreteSheet at the World of Concrete February 3-6, 2009 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. CreteSheet and BigSlider are the perfect combination for concrete projects. BigSlider gets the bags where you need them, and CreteSheet quickly mixes 80 lbs of concrete in 90 seconds. Your back will thank you since both tools use the ground to carry the weight. John Shoemaker will demonstrate concrete made easy at booth S-22411 (South Hall, second floor).

Both tools are green: human-powered and made of recyclable plastic. Not only that, they have been chosen by Popular Mechanics to receive their coveted Editor’s Choice Award for top new tools. BigSlider has been featured on two DIY Network “Cool Tools” episodes and was named one of 14 top "Hot Tools for 2009" by Canadian Home Workshop. CreteSheet was also named a World of Concrete MIP Winner.

Hardware Retailing Magazine, November 2008

Hardware Retailing magazine is just the latest publication to recognize Bigslider™ in its pages.

As is true of other publications, they focused on the simplicity of the tool and its appeal to elderly or people who lift daily as a means of avoiding injury.

We continue to be gratified at the appreciation shown by people who see our product in action!

Thank you, Canada!

Hey Canada --

Thanks for your response to BIGSLIDER being picked as one of fourteen "Hot Tools for 2009" by Canadian Home Workshop magazine (Winter edition, page 21. Three words describe CHW's criteria for their Hot Tools picks: efficiency, accuracy, and ease. We say BigSlider is TOUGH. SIMPLE. EFFICIENT. But we like accuracy and ease, too!

So far we've shipped BIGSLIDER to Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia. In fact, our first retail purchaser was Rittenhouse.ca over in Ontario.

Don't know if you get DIY Network's "Cool Tools" program in Canada, but their footage from the National Hardware Show will be aired in the "On the Move" episode through January. Am I the only one who thinks having Cool Tools in the Lower 48 and Hot Tools in Canada is a little backwards?

Well, if you get "Cool Tools" you can see me (all of 130 lbs) pulling Host Chris Grundy around the National Hardware show hall - FYI industrial carpet has about the same drag as driveway concrete. They also shot our receiving Popular Mechanics Editor's Choice Award, Top 13 Tools for 2008 . WooHoo!

Enough bragging on BigSlider...let's brag on YOU, Canada! You're keepin' us goin' down here in Texas...a BIG THANKS from BIGSLIDER!

Jeri

PS - BIGSLIDER is Made in Texas, USA so there's no GST or PST from what I found on the web.
