Stick It to Crumbs and Spills

Crumbs and spills falling in the crack between the stove and counter was a major pet peeve for Tucson, Ariz.-based inventor Brett LeMarr, who found the problem so annoying that he was moved to create the Stovetop Extender. The product is a magnetized strip of plastic that adheres to a range, with a plastic extension that wraps over the counter. Cleanup is simple: just wipe down the strip. The extender comes in black, white, bisque and almond. The suggested retail price is $9.99. See www.stovetopextender.com for more information.
