@kevinhorvath If you mean the design then this kind of UI has been popular for a long time before Canopy came around. If you mean the curated Amazon idea itself then absolutely, but luckily Canopy is meant just for cool products and our site is specially for Airbnb places. :)

@peedutuisk Is there a front end framework for this type of site or did you guys build it from scratch? Just asking because I tried creating something similar for fun at http://amazoncuration.herokuapp....
@kevinhorvath I just made it from scratch because I wanted to learn more about Node.js, Angular.js and Express.js. That was actually my main reason for building the site, to get to know the technologies more, I've been a designer and a front-end guy most of my life so diving more into back-end programming has been interesting. I used Zurb's Foundation 6 for HTML and MixItUp for the sorting mechanism. I haven't looked around for templates or frameworks for this but I'm guessing there might be some up on Themeforest perhaps?
Very clean interface and easy to use. Do you have plans to create a bundles list? That way hosts can save time + make a quick purchase without thinking what to get exactly.

Great idea - would be cool to add in other services like cleaning companies, PMs, marketing services, etc. Productbnb.com did this for a while but it doesn't seem to be active anymore.
By the way, Amazon just rejected my Affiliate membership for lack of original content. :D I'll try to add more unique content and get the decision reinstated but if that doesn't work it's an interesting lesson. :)
@peedutuisk What do they mean by "lack of original content"? I'm assuming Amazon wants you to offer other content or are they simply against a site dedicated to curation of products? Thanks for this update as I had a similar idea. 😉
Update: Amazon approved my affiliate membership a few months afterwards once I added more custom content to the site like the tips and tricks blog posts section.
