Daniel Lubetzky Shark Tank Holiday Gift Q&A

E!: What is your favorite or most successful product/investment from Shark Tank?
DL: This is kind of like when people ask me to choose my favorite KIND bar. How can I choose my favorite child?! Every company, entrepreneur, and product brings something different to the table and I’m proud not only of their many successes, but also their willingness to keep learning from the challenges along the way.

E!: Which product(s) featured on Shark Tank do you regret passing on?
DL: For me, one of the most memorable “deals that got away” was the Blueland eco-friendly cleaning products. I was a new Shark at the time and had made a big bet, offering $1 million for a 25 percent stake in the company with Lori as my partner.

Ultimately, the entrepreneurs, Sarah and Syed, weren’t looking to give up that much equity, and we lost out to Mr. Wonderful. I realized pretty quickly I had a lot to learn about testing the waters before diving in with both feet first.  

E!: What is the most useful holiday gift you’ve ever received?
DL: It’s super nerdy, but I can’t live without my ThinOptics reading glasses that stick onto the back of my phone in a little case. 

ThinOptics Universal Pod Case + Rectangular Reading Glasses

"It’s such a genius invention for anyone who needs to keep their reading glasses handy… after all, every Shark knows it’s important to read the fine print!"

"If you’re wondering where I get all those smooth moves to out-maneuver Kevin, it’s by training daily with my FitFighter Steelhose. In all seriousness, this product makes for a way more enjoyable workout experience than lifting dumbbells."

Yellow Leaf Hammocks Signature Hammock

"We could all chillax a little more and Yellow Leaf’s hammocks are the best invitation to just get off your devices, reflect on your day, and dream about the future. The best part is that they are bringing economic opportunity to communities of weavers in Thailand."

Tandm Double Barrel Inflatable Bodyboard

“This product gets the entire family out on the water behaving like kids together. What’s not to love about that? The Clark family really figured out how to make water sports more social and accessible to even beginners.”

HummViewer Kit

“This is my favorite item to gift to friends and family. It’s a little bit crazy looking in a good way, but don’t be fooled. It delivers such a magical bird-watching experience. I use mine all the time in our backyard.”
