A good nozzle can turn an average garden hose into a poor man’s pressure washer, an ultra-efficient plant waterer, and the versatile car washing tool. Choosing the right nozzle is probably not something most of us give much thought to, but it’s one of those tools that we tend to buy once, and use for years, so it’s…

Cornhole accomplished the equivalent of sinking all four bags in a round (which, not to brag, I have done) by sweeping this week’s lawn game Co-Op. Taking over 36% of the vote, it comfortably defeated another standby in Bocce, and the always-competitive Kubb.

Repel, uh, repelled the competition to take the crown as our readers’ favorite umbrella, edging out the Blunt Metro. Combining a killer price, teflon-coated fabric, and a lifetime warranty, it truly casts a long shadow.

The recommendations came pouring in, but two umbrellas in particular threw shade over the rest in this week’s Co-Op. The Blunt Metro and the Repel Windproof Travel Umbrella are this week’s finalists, so check out what our readers had to say below, then be sure to vote for your pick.

It’s been nearly four years since we last polled our readers all about the best umbrellas, and April showers are just around the corner (or have started early...I feel like I haven’t seen the sun in two weeks). So this week, we’re ready for a fresh downpour of nominations to see if anything has changed. Check out the…

All five of our finalists could surely cut the mustard when it comes to spicing up your favorite meals, but only one condiment could reign supreme. With just over 30% of the vote, Gulden’s Spicy Brown Mustard took the gold yellow medal as our readers’ favorite.

After dozens of recommendations (and only a few mayo bullies), five mustards ground up the competition to make the second round of this week’s Co-Op. Check out what everyone had to say below, then spread on your own thoughts by voting and commenting at the end of the post.

Mayo, at least on this website, is canceled. If you want some moisture on your sandwich, our official position is that you should consider hot sauce. Or spicy ketchup. Or mustard, the topic of this week’s Co-Op.

Our readers turned up the heat in the comments in this week’s grill Co-Op, but there’s no need to grill you all a second time, because two options clearly had more sizzle than the rest; one charcoal grill, and one gas.

The sun will come out, the temperatures will rise, and before you know it, it’ll officially be grilling season. But for someone unversed in the art of outdoor cooking, the grill market can seem as intimidating as a $250 cut of wagyu.

It wasn’t quite a photo finish, but all six competitors took their shots in this week’s photo printing Co-Op, and Costco Photo won a victory for the scrapbook.

This week, we’re getting a snapshot of our readers’ favorite photo printing services, because only masochists print their own. We’ve developed a clear picture of our readers’ favorites based on the nomination round, so check out what everyone said below, and be sure to vote for your favorite so it gets more exposure.

We’re taking more photos than ever before, and with the quality of today’s phone cameras, some of them are even print-worthy. But unless you have a high quality photo printer at home (you shouldn’t), you’ll need to turn to a photo printing service. It’s been nearly a decade since Lifehacker first tackled this question…

Happy Valentine’s Day, folks! This week, we asked you to sound off about the V-Day candy that you love to the moon and back, and we’re getting a sugar rush just reading about them. We aren’t voting for a winner this week, because this Co-Op is about love, not war, but feel free to wax poetic about your picks in the…

Love is in the air this week, as is the smell of chocolate. Even if you aren’t participating in Valentine’s Day this year, you can still take advantage of all the delicious Valentine’s themed candy on offer, especially once it hits the clearance aisle after the 14th.

The cool factor—pun intended—of ice spheres at a low price ruled the day, as Tovolo’s sphere ice molds dominated the voting this week’s ice mold Co-Op. But there’s an argument to be made for all the finalists, since none of them are really trying to make the same kind of ice.

Opinions didn’t run quite as hot as our hot sauce Co-Op, but this week’s ice mold recommendation post still revealed in some cool options for getting your cocktail presentation down cold.

Ice, once a purely utilitarian beverage commodity, has evolved into an art form as of late. Giant, clear cubes? Ice spheres? Even if your refrigerator has an ice dispenser, you may find yourself wanting some specialized ice trays for fancy drinks.
