Question: How many additional products did the user buy for others?

My sister bought this for me because I love cooking. I always make huge pots of stew and soups, and having to put the covers upside down on the stove or countertop or in the sink was always a pain and messy. Now with this Progressive lid and spoon rest, the covers, as big as they are, sit right in the slot. I love it so much that I bought two more for my family members. What would make this design even better is if they could make it so that you can store the spoon or ladle upright.

Answer: two

Question: what is used to engage and cut lids?

This opener is what the US made "Swing-a-Way" was 50+ years ago. Unfortunately, that name is not worthy of the design. Steuby & Co. made their production on that really works. Steuby's can opener has fluid gear mesh and longer twist handle to give better leverage than other designs. The knife is sharp and angled correctly in order to engage and cut lids. The insulated red handles of the grip cover just a little longer "tang" of metal, allowing for better grip on targeted can. The unit has endured Industrial washing and all the metal is still unblemished, indicating superior quality steel. All the details were identified, considered and executed perfectly in design and manufacture. This is the superior product. The second place can opener goes to 4 Peaks Tech, for their unit.

Question: What material is the product made of?

Finally, an original thick Oster gasket as advertised and/or pictured. I ordered one of these (according to picture displayed which looked super-thick) from Goodmans and got the cheap thin plastic one. I emailed them about it they apologized and said they would send me the correct one. So they went and sent me another cheap thin plastic flimsy one which of course ended up cracking. I think they meant well but you can certainly tell the difference between the real authentic original and the newer skimpy made ones and not necessarily by the 5 star or 6 star shape. Most of the cheap ones have 6 but I do have a cheap flimsy one with only 5 sticking out. This one is super thick and hard plastic. You'll know when you pick it up and feel the weight and texture that it's the real deal...

Question: what are they worth?

I use these knives all the time, they stay sharp for a long time and I really abuse my kitchen utensils from all the use they get. They feel good in my hand and are well worth the price.I buy U.S. made products every chance I get. Good quality and excellent pricing.

Question: How many hooks does the laundry rack have?

OK, this is where I am going to mushy & gushy over a mundane household product...a laundry rack. This is simply stated the best one I have ever owned, and, in my more than seven decades on this planets, I have used everything, from a clothesline on the roof of an apartment building, to the the wooden racks that collapsed by themselves when you put any laundry on them. I do have a dryer, so the rack is for those items that I cannot or should not put in the dryer. It unfolds in a second and is sturdy. It also has two hooks on it so I can hang it on my wire shelves in my laundry area when not in use. It is an Oxo product and they are always high quality and durable. I have been an Oxo fan for years and have never been disappointed. Did you know that Oxo designs were featured in the Cooper-Hewitt Museum of Design, a branch of the Smithsonian, in Manhattan. This is beautifully designed and practical.

Question: The item slightly less noisier than what brand?

I got this so as not to wake others when grinding coffee in the morning, but it makes only slightly less noise than my Starbucks machine which does a better job. The Norpro makes you take the handle off to adjust the fineness of the grind, which is kind of inconvenient, and the grounds don't come out as even as my other machine. But it looks great on the counter, and the removable drawer that holds the grounds is a cool feature once you get used to how many beans to put in before it fills up (since it's not see-through). Guests always have fun using it.

Question: What was this able to do for the authors bedroom?

This is an amazing product - When I ordered it I was concerned that because if was queen/king it would be stretched to the hilt to fit around my king-sized bed - but not the case - Plenty of room to spare - and it was long enough for my extra-deep mattress. It went on so easily - just pull the elastic over the mattress and down the sides. It stays in place beautifully and requires no ironing - it was virtually wrinkle-free - I just touched it up in the dryer for a few minutes. So nice to be able to order this in colors - gives a much more 'finished' look to the bedroom.... Gone are the days of trying to get my mattress over the dust ruffle without tugging / clipping and eventually ripping it... I will never go back to a full bed ruffle again....

Question: What can you not do after the first couple of uses?

Only has even number of grounds setting. I make 5 cups every day (regular mug and mug to go). I have to set it at 4 cups then start it again and then pull the plug to make it stop.The first time I made the mistake of opening the top lid. Woosh! Grounds fly every where.So I have to pour it out the small square hole. Tilting it back and forth and tapping it. Makes no sense.Can't see inside the hopper after first couple of uses. Unless you want to wash it every time.Noise does not bother me.Other than that, I like it. Consisten grounds size.Would recommend it.

Question: Can the knives handle smaller slices?

These beautiful stainless steel steak knives come in an elegant ebony box with gleaming chrome hinges and clasp. They are far sharper than any steak knives I've ever owned; examine the closeups of the knives and you'll see that they are not only serrated but scalloped, too. Those serrations are deep and toothy. When I got the knives, I experimented cutting not only steak and chicken breasts (which they cut beautifully) but also Muenster cheese (thin slivers) and tomatoes (paper-thin slices). The knives handle any task thrown in front of them with ease.As with other Pinzon products I own, these knives are of excellent quality, well balanced and comfortable to hold. They would look beautiful with fancier place settings as well as day-to-day fare. Keep them away from the kids, though, as they are quite sharp.Although they recommend the knives be hand-washed to maintain their beauty, I'm tempted to put one through the dishwasher just to see how it holds up in terms of spotting but also sharpness. I'll have to wait to do that, though, until the effect on me of their sheer gorgeousness wears off...which I doubt will be soon.If Pinzon is not careful, they are going to become the new IKEA--all the rage with many devoted fans.

Question: Why won't there be any marks on your tile when you use this product?

There's a lot of function packed into this product. Besides being able to support the weight of as many soap and shampoo bottles that you can fit on top of it, but it has a small bar and two hooks for your rag, loofah or whatever other accessories you use in the shower. If you shave in the shower you can also hang your disposable razor in the hooks. The bottom of the shelf has small openings in it so water can drain.Installation is a snap - quite literally. Once you make sure the pads on the side are attached (if they're not, it's a simple matter to reattach them). You place the shelf in the corner where you want it, and give the button a nice firm press, and boom - you're done. If you don't like where it is, you just pull the button out and start over. Since it works by pressure and not by adhesive, there won't be any marks on your tile. I wouldn't use this on drywall or any soft-material wall for fear of indenting it, but if your shower wall is drywall you have bigger problems.This might be a little pricey at first glance, but it is very well-made of quality material and does its job perfectly with no flaws, making it worth the $30 price point in my book.

Question: What type of shopping can cause apprehension?

I got these for the matching sheet set - these cases, like the sheets, are really soft and for the price, are great! I highly recommend these pillowcases, as well as the same-brand sheets. I know buying online is a bit apprehensive, given that you can't FEEL the fabric to see how soft it is - but trust me - this is a really good sheet / pillowcase maker and I love this set!

Question: For Thanksgiving what was the only think not cooked in a slow cooker?

These are fantastic! I slow cook, ALL the time. I ordered these just before Thanksgiving, I did my entire thanksgiving, excluding the turkey, in slow cookers! I typically use the name brand ones found at my local grocery store, if I get them on sale I can get 2 boxes for 5 bucks, so, 8 bags total for 5 dollars. With these I got 25 for 10 dollars. You do the math. They worked just as great, if not better. No bubbling like the ones from my grocery store, they held up, no mess at the end of the day, I threw everything away, and I used 7 slow cookers, if that tells you anything. They fit my 1.5 quart, my 2.5 quart, and my 6 quart slow cooker.

Question: What does the reviewer wish the packages of shelf pegs had?

I wish two things----the cabinets were bigger, and they didn't wobble back andforth after they're put together. I wish the shelf space were deeper. I wish the packages of shelf pegs had more pegs in them; but that's four things....oops!I needed them (2) in my kitchen since my house was built in 1889 and backthen the people were teeny-tiny and kitchen cabinets were not very large,and closets were tiny for these tiny people, so I got these cabinets for mykitchen to hold the extra pots & pans. As far as putting them together, I paida handy man to do that for me. They didn't look too hard, though. I recentlyput my own gas barbecue together----maybe that's why it didn't look hard.Bottom line: they're cute but they wobble a little bit.

Question: how many spills were had?

I have tested so many spill proof containers in my life, I have lost count and largely lost hope for one that truly works.These are by far the most effective anti-spill tumbles I have owned to date. I have tossed them full into backpacks before a long hike - had them bouncing around the floor of my boat in rough seas - even had them sneakily carried off by my toddler who thought she was getting the hot chocolate inside. No spills.The primary drawback and reason for my 3-star rating is the mediocre insulation. Even with ample pre-heating, the contents do not stay hot for long. Basically, within 2 hours, coffee, tea, etc. has gone from hot to warm - and within 3 or 4 hours - ambient temperature.I have not tested cold beverages in these cups, as of this posting.

This is a beautiful pan to look at and easy to use. The handle on the pot does not get hot, but the handle on the lid sure does. All that means is a hot pad to take the lid off.The pan is somewhat heavier than single ply pans but the evenness of heating is worth the extra weight. We use it on an electric ceramic cook top so the flatness of the bottom of the pan is critical.All-Clad recommends warming the pan up gradually and not using any more than medium heat with the pan. We have tried to follow those instructions and the pan has done an excellent job.

Answer: flatness

Question: What problem did the author have with containers in the microwave?

I bought two different sets of these containers and am posting the same review to each.I had a set of these that I received years and years ago for signing up for a free checking account at my local bank. That set was great-- held up to dishwasher/microwave/college student use and nested well (all containers were different sizes.)Over the years and several moves, I lost almost all of these containers (or their lids), so I recently decided to replace them.They're still the same great containers (now BPA free!), but I noticed that the containers that are the same size (share the same sized lid) don't nest. They just... stack. Not a HORRIBLE big deal, as you can create a sort of nesting system with the various sizes, but it would be more convenient to be able to nest same sized containers together.Regardless, I'm still glad I pitched the large majority of the patchwork collection of food storage containers I had amassed over the years and replaced them with these. I no longer need to worry about surprise wet papers/purses/lunchboxes or melting containers in the microwave. I just wish that these were more nest-friendly, to save on storage space and save the hassle of sorting through a stack of 3/4 containers to get the right sized one out or put it away.

Question: How many ounces of material does the product hold?

There is going to be more blending happening at my house! This blender is aces. Simple to operate, and really gets the job done well and fast. The container holds 64 ounces, so you can make smoothies for more than one person at a time if you want to.It's so simple, a high/low switch and an on/off switch. The instructions are short and simple, too. It very likely will be the last blender we'll ever need!I had given up on blenders because they were complicated and failed quickly. Too much to figure, and too easy to go wrong. So I love this one!

Question: Does the pan unwarp?

EDIT 7/1/2014: After dropping one of the lids, the plastic "Farberware" log broke and fell out. The lid is still usable, but it causes me to wonder about how sturdy these pans really are. That said, the pans non-stick surface is still very non-stick, and the cooking surface appears to be quality. Just thought I needed to make a note that you may need to be more careful with these pans than I originally thought.The non-stick coating on these pans is quality, and it appears that it will endure the test of time.The first test was the baking sheet, with olive oil brushed on chicken. The oven was 375 F, and the chicken didn't even think of sticking. The only issue (which was more an annoyance than a problem) was that, 2 minutes into cooking, I heard a very loud pop. Sure enough, the pan had a 2-inch warp to it. After the chicken was finished cooking, and the pan had cooled, the warp was gone, and the pan back to its normal flat. While this is slightly irritating, it won't affect the pan's cooking ability.The second test was eggs fried in the 8" skillet. I was a bit concerned because the interior of the pan is quite textured, and I was sure the eggs would stick in the groves of the texture. They didn't. All that was necessary was bit of vegetable spray on the pan before cooking, and the eggs practically slid right outta the pan when they were finished cooking. The only thing that bothered me is that the pan doesn't have a matching lid, as none of the lids from the other pans fit this one. However, if I cook anything where I need to keep the steam in, I can cover the pan with aluminum foil. However, if having a fitting lid is something you really want/need, you need to know that you won't get one with 8-inch skillet. All the other pans have fitting lids.I like that this set comes with nylon utensils. I already had some, but you really can't have too many cooking utensils, so I appreciated that addition.These pans look like they will last, as will the non-stick coating. I really appreciate that they're dishwasher safe, as that makes clean-up for my large family a snap.

Question: What size are these sheets?

Buying bed sheets is always a challenge because of the misleading cotton thread counts, single thread vs multi threads, etcetera. I was a little skeptical when I first ordered these because the price was good compared to other high end brands I was considering. When I received the sheets I immediately washed them and put them on the bed. They fit my oversized King mattress perfectly. They were a little wrinkled when they came out the dryer, but I put them on the bed warm and 30mins later they flattened out perfectly. The sheets were very soft with a HIGH quality feel to them. It was exactly what I was looking for.Please be aware, these sheets are heavy (due to the high thread count I believe). If you like a light weight sheet then these are not for you. BUT if you like a extremely comfortable sheet that is high quality, then these will fit your needs perfectly.

Question: What were the cabinets to be used for?

Answer: extra pots & pans

I wish two things----the cabinets were bigger, and they didn't wobble back andforth after they're put together. I wish the shelf space were deeper. I wish the packages of shelf pegs had more pegs in them; but that's four things.... <hl> oops!I needed them (2) in my kitchen since my house was built in 1889 and backthen the people were teeny-tiny and kitchen cabinets were not very large,and closets were tiny for these tiny people, so I got these cabinets for mykitchen to hold the extra pots & pans . <hl> As far as putting them together, I paida handy man to do that for me. They didn't look too hard, though. I recentlyput my own gas barbecue together----maybe that's why it didn't look hard. Bottom line: they're cute but they wobble a little bit.

Question: Can the item be used for painting?

These can be used with and without attaching them to the dogs. Obviously if you attach them they are more secure, but they work fine for painting and finishing if you just put them under the work on a counter top. I like the fact that they hold the work with minimum contact with it. This helps when I am finishing both sides and I have the work flat on a work table. If you use them with the dogs they just snap on and off. I guess there are other ways to get the job done and these are just a convenience.

Question: What type of carpet is Roomba Red best on?

Roomba Red works. It might not be as powerful as some others, but for low to medium pile carpet, it doesn't really need to be. Since it's much easier to use, I tend to vacuum the whole house 2-3 times per week. Plus each time you turn it on, it covers everything an average of 4 times. Both of these things mean MUCH cleaner carpets on a regular basis. It cleans much better than a cordless. (I have several different ones that I use for stairs) Great product. Consumer reports missed the boat. It's a robot and they are comparing it to non-robots. It may not have picked up as much in one pass as some of their other vacuums they tested but it isn't designed like a traditional vacuum. It goes over things 4 times, plus you use it much more often since you don't actually have to vacuum. Also, cleaning it is important and there are other important things to know to use it well. Check out [...] to get great info.

Question: What doesn't the reviewer use?

I bought this just for the handled bowl to make pancakes. It was worth the money for the bowl alone. I don't even use the measuring cups/spoons. I have weak wrists, so I cannot handle grandma's old crock mixing bowls with one hand. This light melamine bowl is so easy to handle because it HAS a handle and you can scoop or stir with your free hand. Makes scooping out pancake batter a BREEZE!Dishwasher safe on the top rack and has a rubber ring on the bottom of the bowl which keeps it stable and makes no sound when you sit it on a hard counter. I love it and if anything ever happens to mine, I'll be buying it again!

Question: What is nice about the perforated loaf pan?

I've owned and used an Exo Super Peel since 2006. I just used it today, to move some soft/sticky Italian bread loaves from my kitchen counter to a perforated loaf pan. No sticking, no hassles. It was much easier than trying to roll/slide/move the loaves into the pan any other way.The Super Peel is great when moving soft/sticky pizza or any sort of dough from your working surface into the oven. It's MUCH better than a traditional "peel". Less sticking, less deformation of a sticky dough creation.I like it...a lot!

Question: What can you put into each side of the bag?

These bags are very roomy and have a place inside on each side to slide a bottle or jar into. Half gallon of milk fits great.Everytime I use them the cashier and baggers comment on how nice they are.They keep everything nice and cold on the drive home. (My drive is about 45 minutes).They also hold way more than the store bags and are VERY sturdy. Nice and thick.The zippers are just a little bit.......not really hard to close, but you do have to take a second or two to get them to slide around.I'm going to get my daughter-in-law some so she doesn't have to keep borrowing mine.

Question: What setting is the Cooler set to for adequate functioning of the unit?

This Cooler is not small, but it is powerful. I took it out of the box filled the unit with two gallons of water plugged it in, and cool air was abound. And I'm using it in a Living room that is 440 sqft. It's 90 degrees outside and about 77 degrees inside.And truthfully I don't find the unit to be loud for the amount of air that it is producing, and I haven't turned it off of low setting.I am quite pleased with my purchase and look forward to a Cool Summer at less cost than running my AC unit.By the way I live in the Southwest; where humidity is low most of the Summer.PS: Hats of to the supplier because I received my order in TWO DAYS... Outstanding service!

Question: What is the best feature

Again, when I decided to look for a toaster, it must be practical and the price would be reasonable,too. I found this product which my husband liked, too because of the oven feature! The only thing is that they should try to consider putting a timer for the oven, like any other oven toasters out there for convenience...because you really need to watch over it while in use. Otherwise, for the first reason I bought it does a good job! It's a space saver plus I got a good deal on it since I used the "super saver" for shipping and an addtional discount if you spend more...$125 more so I decided to get other new appliances for my kitchen, I needed it anyway...

Question: What unique feature do other vacuum have, but this one does not?

This vacuum has got to have the strongest suction of any cleaner ever made. PLEASE keep household birds and small animals locked up when you're using it! This is a two-way sword, however, because when vacuuming HEAVY WOOL AREA RUGS it tries to suck up the rug and makes the most frightening squeal! It needs to have an "area rug" adjustment. Or, like other vacuums, several height adjustments. I am not talking about those bathroom rugs, either. Those would disappear into the chamber.With our Berber, it's glued down so it is fine on it. And it does well on bare floors, too, although large leaves don't do well. Look out for twist ties, also (hate to think the sound Those would make). I would be nervous using it on large shag rugs, too. You feel like you need a tranquilizer before you use it in case it tries to suck up your oriental rug.The wand that lifts up that you put attachments on is too stiff to come out easily like it did on our Fantom (which also had height adjustments).And I haven't figured out how to put it back in yet. I think I figured out the reason it vacuums up rugs: it doesn't have a BEATER BAR. You know those big, heavy cylinders that many uprights have? This instead has a1/4" thin plastic thing with brushes on it that spins. So there is a lot of SPACE around this beater "thingy" leaving certain items at risk of being sucked up. (like rugs) This spinning thing? I wonder how long it'll last? I wonder if they WANT it to last?To empty out the dirt, (this is when that big canister is HALF full) you struggle with it to get the bottom to open then the dirt falls down into the trash can. There is no big HANDLE that says, "PULL TO OPEN AND DUMP."Something else quite original: on other vacuums, there is a little footpedal on the base on the right hand side you push down to get going. This does not have one of those. You have to push this long, slippery bar that goes across the front of the thing to let the handle down. Odd.Bottom line: Mr Dyson is right: it doesn't lose suction. You could probably use several to pull the Space Station back to earth.

Question: How did buying Oxo Good Grips make the reviewer feel?

Bought this because using a regular spatula to serve food like cake or lasagna is a hassle. Didn't know serving spatula's existed but I wasn't surprised. I've bought Oxo Good Grips before and was very satisfied so I checked to see if they had something that would solve my problem and came across this. It's definitely made serving food a breeze.

Question: What type of car does the author drive?

The vacuum has excellent suction and the flip out extension reaches narrow spots like the space between the accelerator and transmission tunnel in my Civic. Weight is not a problem and as expected given the power. Good idea to empty filter if using more than 3-4 minutes at a time. The only potential problem I see is the so called "memory effect" where repeated charging following only partial discharging causes the battery to remember the smaller charge. It isn't clear to me that the automatic charger avoids this problem; that's the reason for 4 stars. I'd buy it again.

Question: What is the quality of the product's construction

The product itself seems well made with a nice terry cloth top. It was also remarkably easy to slip it onto my queen size 95lb foam mattress. However, it did have a strong odor and still had a slight odor after I washed it. I'm sure it is from the waterproof material that is used in its construction. The title of the item has changed so that the size mattress is more clearly indicated. When I bought it the size was buried in the middle of the title. I got the wrong size, initially, as did at least one other reviewer of this item. While this change to make the mattress size more prominent is useful, it would help if in the photo it indicated what size mattress the protector will fit.

Question: What problem does the waffle maker have?

We purchased this on Jan 29, 2014. Now less than 5 months later the teflon coating is coming off in our baked waffles. We use it every day and care for it per Cuisinart's instructions. I'm nursing a 3 month old baby, and I can't be eating teflon unknowlingly. No one should be! I'm going to try and post pictures. In addition to the obvious product flaw, this waffle maker gets extremely hot steam (burn worthy) that pours forth from where the handle attaches between the iron plates. The iron plates get hotter in the middle and so the waffles don't cook evenly. They get darker in the middle and the edges are still soft. But my major complaint is the peeling teflon.

Question: Why was this item bought?

I got this yogurt maker due to price and simplicity. Fewer features also means less can get broken. And really how hard is it to set a phone timer? The first batch I made I accidentally followed the instructions for thinner yogurt and left it a bit too long (forgot to set the timer haha). The result was a slightly tart DAnimals thick yogurt. I added some honey and vanilla and my 3 year old son and I played around with various colors and it was yummy! Drinkable yogurt is annoyingly expensive and my son usually doesn't like the taste. He downed 4 whole cups of this stuff so I still count this as a not fail. Plus he loved being able to color it himself. My second batch only took 6 hrs and I actually followed the right instructions. Oh and I did let the yogurt I used for starter warm up to room temperature. I may have over boiled the milk by a bit, but it still came out beautiful! Very thick, very rich and simple plain yogurt! I started it at 9pm and pulled it out at 3am when the baby woke up and by morning had some delicious yogurt to look forward to! Opened up one of the cups, dug my spoon in and it was very creamy, super thick and mellow. I used about a quart of whole milk and 1 jar cheap GV vanilla yogurt for starter and about 4 tablespoons of milk powder. I have started on my third of many more batches to come! Very pleased with how simple it is!

Question: How is the quality of this set?

I was given a set of four Rachael Ray Dinnerware Little Hoot and the Snowman plates to review, and I think they are very nice. They have a cute design (first time I've ever used the word "cute" in a review) and my wife is quite pleased with them as well. She also mentioned to me that since these don't have any obvious Christmas designs on them they can be used not just at the holidays but all winter long.My only reservations with these is that you really need at least two sets to use them for their intended function, at which point they are getting expensive for standard "Made in China" quality. Also, we have not used these much yet but in reading other reviews I'm now a bit concerned about the durability of these plates.Now, if you are using them for serving small cookies / cheese / crackers as we will in our home, a set of four is probably sufficient. So if you like the design and don't mind the smaller size and price, you may be quite happy with this RR plate set.

Question: What does the poster claim about the board?

This is a solid and well-constructed ironing board. The best part about it is that the wide end is wider than your average ironing board which makes it nice ironing for men's shirts. When it's folded flat, it is shorter than an average bar by a good foot; it's a little thicker by about two inches. It has a heavy feel and definitely is more stable than my old ironing board. There are a few moving parts and that concerns me a bit for the long haul, but the workmanship looks good, so it will probably be OK. The front leg has a button you push to collapse it and it's a bit of a trick to press that at just the right time when closing the board so as not to nick your finger. I still rate it very high for an ironing board and definitely recommend it.

Question: What is the company going to do about the complaint?

I purchased this adjustable frame and the frame broke into two pieces in less than seven months. They obviously don't know how to weld two pieces of metal. In pursuing action on my warranty I find I will be without a frame for the bed for over two weeks at least. Leggett and Platt are not very helpful. Seems I need to wait for the parts and then arrange for a service call. And so on. I was told thatconsidering the damage to the frame they would probably just replace the item. Oh no, they won't. So I will be without a bed for over two weeks and then I wonder once they fix it will it be broken again in another few months. Do yourself a favor, don't buy this product.

Question: How does the coffee taste?

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this coffee press, and tha fact that it won't EVER require a replacement glass insert is the BEST.The coffee is delicious and not bitter, which is why I purchased a French press in the first place, but for clumsy ol' me, this is a godsend.The coffee stays hotter longer than a glass press would allow as it's insulated.LOVE it...or did I mention that already?

Question: How many were slightly bent when I got them?

I bought 2 of these to help hang things higher up in our closets. In our apartment we have very high 12-14' ceilings and there are racks all the way up there. with these we are able to hang things higher and get much more space out of the closets. These are solid pieces with rounded hooks at the end. When I got the 2 they were both slightly bent and one of the hooks was bent. They are easy to bend back to the correct position so it wasn't really an issue. We keep them in the corner of the closet so they are out of the way until we need them.
