Professional grilling authority Steven Raichlen is not only a barbeque chef, author and television host, he's now also the creator of the cool new Sauce Mop & Bucket ($18).

Fill up the 40-ounce bucket with your favorite barbeque sauce, mixture, glaze or secret concoction and slather or baste it on with the mop.

I haven't had a snow cone in years, at least not since the last carnival came through town, but I still know that nothing is more refreshing on a hot summer day. The Little Snowie Shaved Ice Machine ($299) is sure to bring back some memories from childhood as you can finally make all the snow cones you want right in your very own home. The Little Snowie Shaved Ice Machine transforms ordinary ice cubes into shaved ice instantly and includes everything you need like, 4 sets of flavor concentrates, ready-to-use syrups, pour spouts and dust caps. Now that we're all a bit older, I think a few afternoon margarita snow cones are in order. See less

I'm not sure if they are legal or not outside of the Mushroom Kingdom, but now you can Grow Your Own 1up Mushrooms ($10). Super Mario and his brother Luigi have smuggled in some very rare and magical extra life mushroom spores in through the water pipes, so you can grow one right on your desk at work. Simply add potting soil to the cool green warp pipe planter, water it and keep it in the underworld where it's dark. Soon your 1up mushroom will appear and you'll get one more chance at conquering the evil Bowser and rescuing the Princess! Hmmm, some of you may believe this is real, it isn't. This 1up mushroom is actually made of vinyl and is from Japan, but the sewer-pipe planter really does hold soil. A great illusion for any office cubicle or Super Mario fan. See less

It's the beginning of summer and there are bound to be backyard parties galore, from wedding and graduation parties, the Fourth of July and just for the fun of it. If you plan on throwing a huge outdoor blast too, you're going to need one of these incredibly cool new Giant Entertainment Party Tents ($350)! It's not simply your average everyday outdoor tent or canopy, this is a full blown, massive, weather-resistant entertainment shelter for your yard. It can easily hold 25 standing people comfortably and is designed to allow plenty of cooling airflow. It's beyond everything your guests and the food will ever need as protection from nature's unpredicatable elements and those pesky attacking insect squadrons. If your yard has enough room, this is definitely the ultimate party solution. Plus, it should be fun to see the neighbors stare in sheer awe at a giant backyard teepee and a killer party they weren't invited to! Personally, I just want one for camping, because if you're...

The cool new Tea-Over-Ice - Iced Tea Pitcher System ($40) by Tea Forte will revolutionize the way you prepare your iced tea this summer. It uses two hand-blown heat-resistant glass pitchers to flash chill iced tea instantly whenever you want it. In the lidded upper pitcher, pour boiling water over an infuser with your favorite tea, steep for 3-5 minutes and fill the bottom pitcher with ice. When the tea is ready, simply pour over the ice in the bottom pitcher to produce a fresh flash chilled 24 oz. pitcher of iced tea. So when the summer heat begins to rise and that quenching desire for a tall cold glass of iced tea kicks in, it won't matter anymore if you haven't prepared it the night before. See less

Power stip surge protectors are such a tease. It may seem like they give you extra outlets for your electronics, but those goofy big brick adapters always get in the way or cover up some of the outlets. There's finally a solution to this socket-hogging dilemma, the cool new Socket Sense - Expandable Power Strip ($25). This surge protecting power strip is able to expand or contract each of its 6 sockets to accomodate all sorts of power adapters. I simply cannot believe we have put up with non-movable power strips for this long. See less

The Dripstik ($3) is a cool new invention that catches drips from melting popsicles and ice cream cones. One side holds popsicles and other frozen treats on sticks and the other side holds all sizes and varieties of ice cream cones. As the frozen desserts begin to melt away, it collects and contains all the drippings and is simple to clean afterwards, just toss in the dishwasher. Although it works wonders at keeping kids, er and adults, clothes and hands clean, it also saves your home and carpets when a kid loses interest and sets it down somewhere. This is an absolute must have for car trips, amusement parks, birthday parties and anywhere else a kid and an ice cream cone can make a sticky, gooey, melting mess. See less

I have always held out hope that the coolest ice cubes in the galaxy, shaped like Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite from Star Wars, would one day find their way into my freezer. The Force must be strong with me, because coming soon is the incredibly cool new Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite Ice Cube Tray with R2-D2 Ice Bucket ($33)! I don't have all the details yet, since this is still a pre-order item, but it appears that you can make up to 4 frozen Han Solo "ice cubes" in the tray at a time. After they have survived the freezing chamber and appear to be in perfect hibernation, they can then be loaded into the equally cool R2-D2 ice bucket. Simply remove Artoo's dome head and fill him up with frozen Han Solos or just regular old boring ice cubes if that's all you have. No home cantina would be complete without this set. Big thanks to OrangesRhyme for the heads up! See less

The next time you travel by airline, check the weight of your luggage beforehand with the cool new Balanzza Digital Luggage Scale ($26). This easy to use and compact scale accurately weighs luggage up to 100lbs/44kgs and has a large digital display for easy reading.

It sure beats paying those ridiculous overweight fees, saves you from angry stares from fuming passengers waiting behind you and gives you that great peace-of-mind feeling. See less

This summer, bring a dash of sheer adventure to your barbeque.

Can your umbrella withstand winds speeds up to 70 MPH? The SENZ Original Umbrella ($65) is the world's first aerodynamic and nearly unbreakable umbrella. Not only does this stylishly stealth-looking umbrella look cool, it actually toys with the wind and will never invert inside out on you. Its innovative design lets it turn itself to automatically find the best position and its patented frame can withstand near hurricane wind speeds up to 70 MPH (see amazing video below)! As far as cool umbrellas go, this one is currently the ultimate storm fighter. See less

I'm not a big fan of the game of golf, but I really love driving golf carts (go-carts), teeing off (driving range) and putting (miniature golf). Well, now I can improve my putting game with the cool new Laser Guided Putting Trainer ($40). Simply clip this lightweight 0.8 oz. right-handed or left-handed laser unit onto any putter head and prepare to start sinking perfect putts. It emits a straight laser line down on the green that extends all the way to the target. Wherever the laser points, the ball should go. Great teaching aid for golfing beginners or just for cheating during a grueling match on the miniature golf course with a spinning windmill. See less

When it comes to drinking water, everyone lately has become obsessed with absolute water purity. What about the water you actually bathe in and the hot steam you breathe in during a shower? The Wellness Shower Filter ($249) is a cool long-lasting filter for your shower that not only removes chlorine (chlorine is a vapor and you breathe it in during a hot steaming shower!), bacteria, cysts, heavy metals, sediment, many chemicals and other impurities from the water supply, it also increases the dissolved oxygen, re-ionizes it for an enhanced antioxidant effect and adds healthy, trace amounts of silica, potassium and magnesium for healthier skin and hair too. I would feel much better knowing that all that added chlorine from the municipal water supply is being removed along with anything else that makes it into the stream and if I had a private well, I would have this installed in a heartbeat. Do you actually trust your water supply? I do -- hmm, no actually I don't. Check out the video... See less

They say, in space no one can hear you scream, but they'll definitely hear you scream when you bring an Alien Warrior Lifesize Statue ($5200) into your home. This 7 foot 7 inch replica of one of sci-fi horror's most fearsome and feared monsters will terrify all of those who venture near it. I have seen plenty of lifesize Alien statues before, but none of them have ever really captured the look of the one from the first movie like this one does. It has a latex polyfoam body and tail (which is even poseable), a resin and rigid foam head with vacu-formed dome and transparent dental acrylic lips. The coloring and attention to detail is truly frightening. Thankfully, this one doesn't have molecular acid for blood and unlike a real Alien, will play nicely in your home theater, that is, unless you have a lifesize Predator statue as well. See less
