TY for being a channel I can watch in front of my kids AND in-laws without worrying. Getting harder to find channels like that 😭

[mariaperham]

My husband and I watch your channel all the time. Part of what we like is that you get right to the point and your videos are not long. Even the way you answer people’s questions that they send you. Keep up the great videos!!!

[FflawedMetalhead]

A few of your reviews have actually led to me buying things for my mom, who has arthritis, that I would've never known existed (forget the exact names, but one is a multi-sized jar opener, and the other is a clingwrap/parchment paper dispenser). Keep up the good work!

[Laceylane]

Yay! Makes my day every time I get on YouTube and get to enjoy your company for a short time. Thank you so much for always entertaining me! 😊

[lindacondray]

Tinnitus buddy here. I can’t stand white noise. It’s just one more stimulation going into my brain along with the tinnitus. It does amaze me with all the technology now a days, especially developments in hearing aides, that they can’t figure out a real cure for all those who suffer with tinnitus.

[SusieSpriggs]

You’re not just entertaining, you’re honest and frank. I’m glad I found you!

[margeebechyne]

Would love to see Bailey's birthday with a lot of different doggie treats featured and reviewed!!

[purplepikminYT]

Thank you for being you, your channel has been a good place for REAL reviews, the fact your not a chef for a example gives you the PoV of most people will have. Next to how well your reviews are, you are really enjoyable to watch n listen to. Keep up the great work (also you n your son shark tank stuff was really awesome <3~)

One recommendation I have for your reviews is that when testing an electronic product, get one of those "electricity usage meters" that goes between the item and the wall, and keeps track of how many watts of power it goes through. If it's full plug-in, just report how many watts it takes to cook a thing or per hour or whatever would make sense for that product, and if it's rechargable, tell how many watts it takes to recharge it. One thing that I'm always curious about with modern devices is "ok, it does the thing it says it does, but how efficient is it compared to just using a microwave or toaster or whatever I already have?"

[shannondore]

Awwww, baby Bailey was so adorable. And she's still a cutie.❤🐶

[jboveda]

Thumbs up for the Sundays (and for being just an honest, down-to-earth, approachable creator true to themselves)

[JadeCC]

I love that you repeat yourself and the way you use your hands. I’m autistic and have ADHD and I either love or hate people’s mannerisms 😅

[madizzle]

1:54 Heeey, thanks for using my question.

[JMWexperience]

Very interesting! You have a great gift of being relatable to your audience. Keep up the good work.

[kamily]

Yes!!! I'm looking forward to that collab! Thanks for answering my question 😊

[sharonmarks]

Hi James, when I am looking for a product, I check to see if you've reviewed it. One of your reviews led to me purchasing the product twice, once for myself and once for my mom. I trust your reviews because you test the product multiple times and not just once like most other reviewers. So thank you!

[OneStepHomestead]

just an idea for the once per 6 months or so have a live auction and donate proceeds to a location/reason freakin reviews xmas gifts to hospital, food/litter donations to animal shelters ext

[DJapan]

I have tinnitus too but I'm so used to it that I don't really notice until someone mentions it. Thanks. 😂

[WyhnTemple]

I love your reviews! I appreciate that you look at the instructions to give products a fair shake. Living in an area with cold winters, I’d love to see some space heater reviews. I’m sure it’s not at all on your radar living in Vegas, but you could regift to your son in Maine.😉☀️❤️

Oh, boy, I remember when you started doing Q&A, so I've been here for over seven years!!!
