If anything could make housework fun, it might be a hovering vacuum cleaner. Check out a vacuum that floats on a pocket of air and find out why this makes for a better floor cleaner. Tired of running a hot bath only to have the water cool before you make it to the tub? A new heated bathtub keeps a hot bath hot. Plus, a new kind of stud finder instantly pinpoints the center of a stud and makes hanging heavy objects safer. And a modern, minimalist high chair could have your baby sitting pretty.

Derek and Dean take advantage of the slate expertise of expert Tom Nigro, of Capitol Tile and Marble, to create a one-of-a-kind slate floor in a Washington, D.C. metropolitan area home. They give insider tips on varying color schemes and tile size to create a finished project that uses this old-fashioned project in a distinctly modern way. Dean and Derek will go inside Tom's shop to find out what's selling, ways to vary the project and, most importantly, how to maintain a slate floor so it lasts for a hundred years.

Seattle residents Marian and Betsy decide to design and build a prefab yurt weekend retreat — a modern adaptation of the ancient tent-like shelter used by Central Asian nomads — on Whidbey Island. A team of experts at the factory in Oregon precut, stain and insulate the couple's kit to be ready for assembly. Then, Marian and Betsy are joined by friends to build their yurt in only a week's time. There is also a tour of the finished yurt home to find out how it all came together.
