The Problem
Grabbing a bottle of wine and pouring that much needed first glass of wine, is always disappointing because its always too warm! Wouldn't it be great to at least make that first glass MUCH cooler, whilst you wait for the rest of the bottle of wine to chill properly in the fridge!The Solution
Lets re-design the wine aerator to include a compartment that you slide in an ice cylinder, specially made using a new mould. The mould creates a cylindrical ice mould, which has LOTS of holes through it.. The ice mould then slides into the new aerator.. When you pour the wine in, the wine is SLOWLY dispersed across the top of the ice mould by the new aeroator and then through the holes, giving plenty of TIME for the wine to be slowly chilled by the ice mould.Product Comparison

The Problem
I use Zip-lock bags alot. For storage, Freezing, etc.. They work great but when you try to pour soup or spaghetti sauce in one ,it gets all over the seam, where you close it. Making hard to get a good seal on the bag.The Solution
I've made a funnel out of a plastic bottle. A "1Quart" Zip-Lock bag goes right over the small hump of the hourglass shaped funnel and holds on, Because its close to the right size but not perfect.This leaves the larger hump as the mouth of the funnel.You can fill up your bag with whatever you want with no mess.Product Comparison
- I would like help designing several different sizes, to fit different size bags. Maybe different colors too,
- like those disposible storage containers.
Key Features
- I have never seen another funnel anywhere shaped like this, it's like an hourglass . The bag holds on ,
- plus you can easily hold onto the bag and funnel with one hand to make sure it doesn't spill
The Problem
Most people fall asleep when they travel, and most people that fall asleep do it with a face that´s funny to everyone except for themselves. 99% of the people don’t like to be seen sleeping with their mouth open or a semi-opened eye. The problem is not only of vanity; when the sleeper is conscious about this situation, he or she could have difficulties achieving a deeper sleep.The Solution
The idea is to wear something fun that covers our face in our sleep. A head cover of a very light fabric, with different fun designed expressions. The design of the cover and the fabric has to permit us a comfortable breathing. And the designs for the face expressions are infinite. We could sell this with the optional neck pillow attached.Product Comparison

The Problem
Pot and pan lids are a mess to store. There are lid racks for pantries and couter tops. Never an easy way to do it though. Lids are usually stored separately from the pot/pan, as many owners take the opportunity to store as many pots within one another as possible. Traditional lids do not allow this to be done if they are stored with the pot(unless off of the pot same area).The Solution
My resolution to this problem is to create a line of pots and pans with lids that are actually smaller than the circumference of the pot/pan. I know this sounds silly as it will not stay on top of desired pot, but bare with me. Now we wrap the outer edges of this lid with a silicone rim that makes up the desired distance needed to form a seal on the pot/pan. This silicone rim can also encase the inside (or bottom) of the lid. Now with the silicone edges of the lid holding it in place and and the solid disc (metal / glass) lid supporting a thin collapsable (to make flush with lid) handle we have a complete pot/pan lid. Now, this is where I believe my concept is somewhat different. Once user is done using pot/pan the lid can simply be pushed down into the pot/pan and handle lowered flush with the lid (at bottom of pot/pan). An alternative to this is simply remove the silicone rim and place smaller circumference lid inside desired pot/pan. Then place silicone rim inside. The same concept can be used on slow cookers/crock pots. It would be nice if this was all able to clean in dishwasher.Product Comparison
- Lots of pot/pans out there and lids. Some with rubber gaskets.
Key Features
- Lid stores in pot it was intended to be used for.
- Collapsable handle.

The Problem
When I go out to a bar/club, a wedding, or even exercising my girlfriend always asks me to hold her wallet. She either doesn't bring a purse or carries one so small it barely fits her lip gloss. So I'm stuck carrying her wallet as well as mine. My pockets are bulging like I robbed a candy store. I also find myself on a job, when someone asks me for a business card, and I realize my wallet is locked in my car with my business cards.The Solution
My solution is a sleeve for the back of my iphone that holds my id (with a see through viewer) 2 slots for credit/debit card and a pouch for some cash. The slots would be up to down while the small elastic pouch would be the length of the phone, opening out.Product Comparison

The Problem
Smoking food had been used for food preservation and enhancing taste for centuries but items currently on the market are only available for outdoor BBQ environments or ones that go on your gas cooktop.The Solution
The Countertop smoker contains both an electronic timer and thermostat. This allows users to set a low heat setting (say 225) and smoke meat/fish or cheeses for many hours. A sub-chamber allows for different flavored wood planks. Because of the low heat, the warm air would smoke the food without and real billowing smoke one sees outdoors.Product Comparison
