The AtmosFX digital projector makes decorating scarily easy

Intro to Digital Decorating
Looking to up your decoration game this Halloween, but don’t have the time to string up fake spider webs or set up a full graveyard on your front lawn? The AtmosFX holiday digital decorating kit might be just the thing.

It includes everything you need to set up an otherworldly scene in your home, while eliminating the mess and a lot of the work of conventional decorations. The kit includes a high-definition projector and tripod for projecting one of 14 pre-loaded spooky scenes onto any flat surface. Some of the included scenes are Zombie Swarm, Werewolf, and Stalking Startlers. Also included in the set is a remote that allows you to change the scene on the fly.

If you want to get a little more advanced and work in some transparency to your display, the kit also comes with a window film. Just apply it to a large window, and it gives the window just the right opacity for your projections to show up without shining straight through. This can create a great effect, making it appear as if the ghouls are lurking inside your house, which just might give your house a haunted reputation.

The system can also be paired with AtmosFX’s 3DFX form. When inflated, the form resembles a human figure and, paired with a projection cloth draped over the top, you can project a dynamic character right onto its surface, adding some more life to your display.

While the $190 price tag might be pretty steep for scary decor, the kit does encompass more than a single holiday. It’s also with preloaded holiday scenes like Night Before Christmas and Let It Snow, so you can keep it out all winter as well. You can even purchase more packs to load onto an SD card to keep your content fresh, but unfortunately it doesn’t look there’s a Thanksgiving-themed one yet.

Are robotic pool cleaners worth it?

The worst part of owning a swimming pool is taking care of it From filter maintenance and skimming debris from the surface to managing chemicals and more, you'll likely find yourself hanging out around the water more often than you're actually in the water. Robotic pool cleaners are designed to alleviate this pinch point of pool ownership by giving you back your time and automating most of your tasks.

But are robotic pool cleaners worth it, or are they a gimmick that still require heaps of manual input? Here's a closer look to help you decide if one would be a good addition to your backyard.
Budget-friendly devices are often a hassle

Why you should buy the Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Air Fryer
The Bella Pro Series 3 Quart Air Fryer holds up to about 2.5 pounds of food, heats up to 400 degrees, and has easily-removable dishwasher-safe parts. If you notice it is "analog" that is because it has a 60 minute shut off timer to give you peace of mind and an easy way to time your cooking. Of course, this means there aren't a ton of digital options, buttons, and settings. However, this can be a plus for some and possibly you. Not every item in the home needs to be "smart" and less can certainly feel like more.
