Shark Tank Episode 426

PITCH: Liddup 
ABC Recap
I thought this was a pretty good idea if I were in the market for a cooler and there was one with these lights in the price range I would give it a chance.

PITCH: Echo Valley Meats 
ABC Recap
Based on the Sharks reaction I would love to try some of this meat.  Maybe I will get a chance but otherwise really hard to review food I haven't tried.

PITCH: RootSuit 
ABC Recap
I honestly just think this is a dumb product I can't see why I would buy one.

PITCH: Gobie H2O 
ABC Recap 
This is a pretty nice water bottle I could see me bringing this into work.  I don't totally trust the water where I work so I am currently bringing in filtered water from my house.  This works okay when I remember it and I'm not really thirsty.  It would be a lot easier to leave something like this at work.  I gather that there are competitors so I might have to consider those as well. 

Of the items presented in this episode I think my level of interest would be the following:
  1.  Echo Valley Meats 
  2.  Gobie H2O 
  3.  Liddup 
  4.  RootSuit 
What do you think of the products do you agree or disagree with my ranking?

 From this and previous episodes I've blogged about:
  1. Coolwraps 
  2. Cordaroy's  (Thinking about buying)
  3. How Do You Roll
  4. Simple Sugars (Might make a good gift) 
  5. Echo Valley Meats 
  6. Traditional Fisherie (Not sure I will ever see it) 
  7. Gobie H2O 
  8. Liddup 
  9. Proof Eyewear
  10. Travel HOODIE PILLOW
  11. Smartwheel
  12. Lose 12 Inches with Any 12 Workouts
  13. Baby Loves Disco (Could move up as kids get older) 
  14. CellHelmet
  15. Green Garmento
  16. Pretty Padded Room
  17. HOODIE PILLOW
  18. Cold Snap
  19. Gotta Have S'More
  20. Drop Stop (Not that big of an issue in my mind) 
  21. RootSuit 
  22. PITCH: Hip Chixs
  23. Muddy Water Camo
  24. Addison's Wonderland

Shark Tank Episode 419

Every time I watch Shark Tank I try to give my impressions of the items presented on the show.  I'll leave rating the businesses to the Sharks as a regular guy all I care about is the products.  

PITCH: Drop Stop
ABC Recap
I thought this was an okay product idea.  It does solve a "problem" for people.  For me though it is far to expensive for the problem it solves.  Maybe I'm just not messy enough to see the real value in this product.

PITCH: Traditional Fisherie
ABC Recap
If I saw lionfish on a menu I think I would be willing to give it a try.  I will admit I originally thought this lionfish issue was a scam to get me to try a new fish but the Wikipedia entry proves my gut wrong.  Now that I know that I could help the environment by eating this fish it does improve the odds that I would choose to eat it.  So even though the guys didn't get a deal with the Sharks hopefully they have raised awareness and people will consider eating more lionfish.

PITCH: Simple Sugars
ABC Recap
Being a guy I couldn't see myself buying this product.  I did consult with my wife to see if she that it might be an interesting item.  She does think that it would be something that she would consider trying.

I usually stick more to the products but I really enjoyed the presenter for this product!

PITCH: Coolwraps 
ABC Recap
This is a product that I could see myself giving a try.  I am absolutly terrible at wrapping gifts and hate doing it.  This looked like it would be a product that would allow me wrap presents with ease and my gifts wouldn't look like they were wrapped by a child!

Of the items presented in this episode I think my level of interest would be the following:
  1. Coolwraps 
  2. Simple Sugars (Might make a good gift)
  3. Traditional Fisherie (Not sure I will ever see it)
  4. Drop Stop (Not that big of an issue in my mind)
