Multi-Function Extending Table
It’s a dining surface, a storage solution, and a big and a small table all in one.
Now available at Casalife the Skovby multifunction table. A small scale table that can extend to seat about saving space, and making the most of every inch of it. This is the Swiss Army Knife of kitchen and dining room tables. Born from a need to make the most of four or six people, collapse to serve just one or two, and open to reveal a two decker drawer for storing dinner ware, napkins, decorations, or anything else you can think of to store. The reversible dining table top is covered in stainless steel on one side, making it tolerant to hot objects. This table is all space, the Multi-Function Extending Table achieves its purpose admirably.

Neat Glass
Dayside Now Offers Neat Glass from Cardinal IGWindows that almost clean themselves… How Neat is that!
Cardinal Neat treated glass uses a special titanium oxide coating that harnesses the sun’s rays to loosen dirt – with virtually no cleaning required! It all starts with the sun. The titanium dioxide layer of Neat glass reacts chemically with the sun’s UV rays and causes organic materials that are on the glass to decompose. It works even on cloudy days, as 80% of UV radiation gets through cloud cover. Thus when it rains, the decomposed dirt no longer clings to the glass, easily rinsing away leaving windows virtually spotless. Your windows will stay cleaner longer and clean easier.
It’s ultra-smooth with a thin layer of silicon dioxide. This allows water to disperse evenly or “sheet off” and evaporate quickly, greatly reducing water spotting
