    I found this in cabinet over the fridge. I think I've seen one before but I don't remember what it's for I know it uses batteries and you obviously put some sort of liquid in it.

    Could it be a portable iron or steamer for clothes?

    Maybe a dish scrubber where you put soap in the handle?

    I don't know whose dog it is, but Yeah, a dog (and/or cat) vacuum.

    I like Ron Popeil (and Dan Akroyd.) Ron was pure pitchman.


    I had a Pocket Fisherman. And a Showtime Rotisserie. And a Seal-A-Meal. His website lists a product named Mr. Dentist. I could find nothing on it...which may be a good thing.

    I always wanted a Veg-o-Matic. Maybe I'll check Ebay. :D

    My Dazey Seal-A-Meal got years of use. When I was taking night classes I would make my meals for the week on Saturday and bag & freeze them. Thee was no vacuum but they didn't ice up too badly in just 7 days.

    I also had a Veg-o-Matic. I would break it out every so often to make french fries, but other than that it just took up space. I've used knock-offs when doing BBQ fundraisers and they're handy for doing large volumes of uniformly chopped veggies for slaw & pasta salad, but they're kind of a waste for home volume use.
