Question: What kind of burn do you risk?

Not five star because it is difficult to steam the wrinkles out of some items as they hang loosely. For instance, it's hard to do long-sleeve blouses without holding out the sleeve, risking a steam burn. Also, the cord is short, and it is not easy to get things over the hanger part of the steamer without tangling the chord. It can be stored in a closet as two sections of the pole can be lowered to about two feet. Amazon's is priced about $20 less than in most stores; we bought our first Rowenta, same model and make, at a store in NYC for $100. Sometimes, a steamer beats ironing as it refreshes clothes you need to dry clean, however, don't bet on men's dress shirts or women's cotton shirts looking as well as when you iron them.

Question: What other tea can be used with it?

I recently told my husband that anyone who looked into our pantry would think that I was a huge tea lover since I have so many different flavors and selections of tea. The reality? I actually just *want* to be a tea lover, but I always end up with bitter tea and can never seem to get the steeping times rights. Enter the Breville tea maker!Like other reviewers, I had to get over the price on this and just take the plunge. (My husband doesn't know it yet, but this will be his Christmas gift to me this year! ;-) ) I've only had this for about a week, but I absolutely love it. It's super easy to use, and takes all the guess work out of making a delicious cup of tea.The "keep warm" feature is also great since I've been making a larger pot of tea, and then coming back for refills on days and afternoons when I'm at home or on the weekends.In less than a week, this thing really has made a tea lover out of me!UPDATE ON 12/17/12: In case anyone is wondering, you can also use this with bagged tea. I've just been snipping off the string and removing the stable, but leaving the tea in the bag, and it's been working fine. (Before doing this, I had tried searching online to make sure that it would be OK to do, and someone on a tea forum mentioned that they contacted Breville, who said that it was OK to use tea bags, as long as you didn't take the tea out of the bag. Apparently, bagged tea is too fine to go through the mesh strainer on this tea maker, so leaving it in the bag ensures that the very fine particles won't end up in your brewed tea.)

Question: how many hooks did they put on the shower glass?

These are really good hooks, but not nearly as strong as the original suction hooks that came out years ago. That being said, the bathroom in our new house has nowhere to hang towels near the shower door since the entire enclosure is glass. We have four of these stuck directly to the shower glass and they hold wet towels easily and rarely fall off. You have to be sure to affirmatively engage the suction cup directly to the surface before you lock the hook down. I am pleased enough with these because it's hard to find a clear plastic suction hook that actually sticks and these have been better than any others I have found.

Question: what do they wish was longer?

I was very excited to try out this vacuum. For the most part it does well, but I have a few concerns:1. The cord is too short. Most vacuums allow me to plug in the middle of the house and do most of the house. This one does not.2. I hadn't had a canister vacuum for years. Now I know why. This would have been a much better vacuum as an upright.3. I don't like the sanitizing. It feels like nothing is happening. I don't know how you would know if you went over it enough or not.4. The dirt cup is not very big. We have a lot of dog hair, and while it picked it up great, I was always emptying the cup.It picks up well and isn't too loud. I just wish at least the cord was longer and the dirt cup was bigger, if they didn't make it an upright.

Question: What can the hand vac be useful for in the garage?

This is a pretty good hand vac. It has a number of features that make it quite useful, and the missus and I are finding a lot of places around the house where this comes in handy. Some of the better features are the lithium ion battery, which keeps the vacuum ready to go just about all the time. I like the little wheels for moving it over larger areas and jobs, even though I don't really consider it to be that advantageous or useful. (Let's face it: for big jobs, it's easier to just get the big guns, like myDyson DC65 Animal Complete Upright Vacuum Cleaner.) The extendable crevice tool is handy, though the feature doesn't do much for its overall utility. (I would prefer a detachable one.)Still, with two cats and a big house, this is easy to use for things like small jobs on the stairs, both to the upstairs and from the garage, where it even handled leaves and lawn debris. It works great in cleaning around the litter boxes and under the appliances in the kitchen, and I even used it to get dust and paper fragments off the music stands on my pianos. It's easy to empty the canister, the charger doesn't have a huge footprint and isn't overly ugly, and the charger/stand also allows for vertical or horizontal storage. I suppose it wouldn't hurt if it was a little more powerful, but this has an acceptable noise level for the power it provides and didn't bog down on any jobs we attempted, so it's hard to complain about. It's a solid five star performer in my book.

Question: What was their purchase?

The plastic binders are hard brittle pieces and the whole thing just falls apart within weeks under normal circumstances. I bought two and they both were destroyed in less than a month. Now I use the rods for scooping up items that have fallen behind the washer, knocking stuff out from under the sofa, batting cobwebs from the porch ceiling, poking the dog so he gets off the chair, changing the channels when I can't find the remote, "sword" fighting with my grandsons, staking vegetables and more.

Question: Why did the person buy the vacuum?

I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have. This little baby really picks up stuff that my other one never did. It's light weight, perfect size for a one bedroom apartment with a mix of hardwood and carpeted floors, and easily glides from one surface to another. It has a anti scratch resistant squeegee blade that picks up the smallest dirt on hardwood floors and the rotary brush assembly does an excellent job on the carpet plus bristles for the corners that more expensive vacuums have. Since I've only had it for a week, the test will be how well it works (has a 1 year warranty) in the long run, but for the price I can't complain.

Question: What is being reviewed?

I love waking up to fresh juice in the morning and over the years I've tried everything from the old-fashioned "manual" juicers to quite a few of the juicers you find in most department stores. More often than not the ones I have come across are too big and bulks to be left out on the counter and just didn't deliver what I needed the most - the juice!With this Epica juicer though I am happy to say that it is truly a marvelous little gadget that doesn't take up too much space, and looks good on the counter top! The first thing I noticed is it was quiet -- not whisper quiet, but rather a gentle whir. No worries about waking the house up when you are making your morning cup of orange juice with this guy!Second, it's very sturdy for such as small design. The rubber base helps keep it in place and I have yet to have it go off-balance or scoot around while juicing oranges and lemons.Finally, it has a nice finish that goes well with the rest of our stainless steel appliances. A quick rub down now and then and it cleans right up!Overall, I'm thrilled with it -- and most of all, I'm enjoying the juice!

Question: What did they replace with this new purchase?

We bought this to replace a VERY large, very white (turned brown!) toaster oven that was about 10 years old. I bought this based on the reviews, and the very reasonable price. And the fact that it wasn't white! We've been really pleased. It's big enough to warm leftovers and toast, but much smaller than our previous one. The controls are simple but they all work, and it warms up FAST. We use this mainly for my little boy's fishsticks and waffles, stuff like that, and it works like a champ. I don't have anything negative to say, but I will warn you the cord is pretty short so if your outlet is far away you may want to take that into consideration. We wrapped the crumb/drip tray in foil to make cleaning even simpler. Highly recommend this little guy!

Question: How many mini-preps has the author owned in the past?

I have owned 3 of the biggest Cuisinart processors over the last 35 years, and 2 of the mini-preps. This is the handiest by far. The big ones don't work well for small jobs and the mini-preps are almost useless. This little jewel handles small jobs beautifully. It will emulsify salad dressings like nothing else and grate or shred small quantities of cheese perfectly. I also love it for mincing/pureeing fresh garlic, rosemary, and other ingredients for a fast, fresh dry rub. Another plus: it takes up very little space on the counter or in the dishwasher. When my family lived at home, I loved the large ones. Now this small one fits my lifestyle.I recommend it highly.

Question: How big is the baster?

I received baster for free to review from the Amazon Vine program. On the quality side, I found this to be a well made product. It comes with its own little cleaning brush which is a plus. The downside was that it is pretty big compared to most other basters I have owned and a bit awkward to use. It is so large it takes up the limited space I have in my utensil drawer in the kitchen. Maybe for someone who does more large scale cooking the extra size would be a plus, but for my average size family cooking it just takes up extra space.The top accordion part has a wire ring in it so only squeezes up and down. It took me two hands to use it - one to hold the baster itself and the other to push up and down on the top. For me, normal basters with a bulb on top that can be squeezed from side to side are much easier to use.

Question: How much water will the coffee pot hold according to the box?

BOUGHT THIS COFFEE POT FEB. 10 GOT IT ABOUT 15-just got around to using it because I'v been waiting to buy tea pot for boiling water-I wanted to make the pot so I would know how much water to put in the pot. The box says 8 cups-64 OZ.-NO way was this pot going to hold 8 cups or 64 OZ!--It holds 24 OZ which is fine by me-no way did I need 64 OZ of coffee first thing in the AM. I love my coffee pot have no complaints about it but the math on the box just did'nt add up- Thought you might like to know my observation-but again you may have already figured this out for your self.

Question: How much juice was lost using OXO slicer?

I LOVE fresh pineapple, but don't but it as often as I'd like because I don't like peeling them. I always end up with the hard bits in my spears, and I've also worried that I might lose a finger with my chef's knife.I had my doubts about the OXO pinepple slicer, mainly because it's plastic and the slicing edge didn't seem sharp. However, it cut right through the pineapple! It was a little odd to maneuver at first, but was easier the second time. I did lose some of the juice from the pressure of the cutter, but not a lot. I also had a little too much leftover pineapple from the shell which seemed a waste. It just occurred to me that I might be able to scrape the remaining flesh out and put it in the freezer for smoothies.My slices came out nice and firm. Some of the other reviewers noted getting poor results with pineapple shreds instead of slices. I wonder if the ripeness of the pineapple might affect how well it works. If I end up with a pineapple that is under or over ripe, I'll update my review with any changes worth mentioning.Overall, I'm glad to have this slicer! Normally I don't like gadgets that only do one thing, especially if a knife can do the job just as well. In this case, I feel that the OXO slicer is more efficient and safer than cutting it with a knife.

Question: Why can the gasket be easily lost?

This is the "best buy" blender recommended by Cook's Illustrated. They marked it down for not making perfectly smooth smoothies, and for taking a long-ish time to work. So far I have only used this blender to make smoothies, and there are often a few little chunks. Just something to be aware of if you're very particular about your smoothies.As other reviewers noted, the gasket for the blade is a clear/whitish color and could easily be lost.The edges on this blender are a little harsh: I cut my finger with the bottom of the base while getting it off a shelf, and the lid's plastic ridges are a bit sharp too. Just be careful.If these problems don't bother you, this is really a great deal for a blender. I expect to get many smoothies out of it, and am pleased overall with this product.

Question: How many adults can the mattress handle?

The fact that it came undamaged after being compressed and folded to fit into a rather small box says a lot about the quality of the springs. I bought it to use with this frame http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005WXO984/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1 and it fits perfectly.The mattress is firm but not too hard, very comfy. I don't understand what some reviewers are talking about when they say it's so soft that they sink into it. Two adults who weigh about 290lbs in total have been sleeping on it with no complaints.It is very nice for the price so I'm not going to be too picky. The only cons are:1. The underside of the mattress is a few layers of that cheap reusable grocery bag material. It tore a little bit when I tried to drag the mattress to a different room.2. It is heavy and very floppy, so it can be difficult to stand it on it's side and carry down 2 flights of stairs when we move out.Overall a very good purchase.

Question: How many discs does the item hold?

I would have given this disc holder a 5-star rating except that the child-resistant safety button/knob is difficult for arthritic hands to lift and twist at the same time. If I am very careful when closing it, I can avoid having the safety latch catch, but that does not always work. I wish they had an option to purchase it without the child-resistant device, for non-child older households.Other than that, it is a great way to keep sharp blades and discs organized and safe! It is well-made and stores 3 discs, a dough blade, and the chopping blade. Although it is fairly large, it is easy to keep on top of my fridge, as it is very lightweight but sturdy.This would be a great item for a household with children, with its safety device.

Question: What are key features of the sheets?

To begin, I'm a bit of a sheet snob. Before I found these, if it wasn't 1000+ thread count, I wouldn't bother. But I saw the high reviews and breathability claims and thought I'd give it a shot...and have since ordered another set in a different color and don't think I'll go back to plain cotton. Normally I shy away from prices this low on items that seem foreign to me, but this fabric is light, super soft, cleans well, and warm. Colors are true to form, the sheets fit my deep mattress (17-18"), and I'll definitely order again if/when I need new sheets.

Question: What did I want to buy?

Finding a decent pitcher is much harder than I thought it would be. Seriously.I looked at Target, Wally World, other sellers on Amazon and even fancy department stores and I found it difficult to find a large pitcher that did not completely suck. I am convinced that perhaps this company is the only one that knows how to make a decent pitcher. Let me tell you why I love it.First of all it is made in the US. Maybe the last thing made here in this country. So thats a big plus in my book. Also it's large, but not humongus. I think maybe it might be the perfect size. It's sturdy. I like that. No tuperware film-flam here. I like that the lid fits perfectly and is simple and easy. I like that it fits in the door of my fridge (I have a standard size US fridge). It looks good too.I feel kind of silly reviewing a pitcher online, but seriously, it's hard to find a decent one. Like I said, this might be the only decent pitcher out there in the marketplace in my opinion.

Question: What is found in water in Arizona?

I've always wanted a home distillation unit. What I've usually found are pieced together units that belong in a garage. This unit is very well constructed, streamline designed distiller that will seamlessly fit in any over-gadgeted kitchen (like mine).Living in AZ, the water here is full of dissolved minerals. My first use of this unit was to START OFF with carbon filtered water. As described how this unit functions, about 5 hours later the unit completed its gallon cycle and turned itself off. After leaving sit for at least 1/2 hour (per safety instructions), allowing it to cool, what I discovered in the stainless steal pot was a film/sludge of concentrated mineral deposits that required a run through with the included anhydrous citric acid crystals to fully clean the gunk off of the stainless steal. Having already purchased 4 two liter glass pitchers, I emptied the distilled water into the pitchers and let it cool. AMAZING TASTING WATER!.This is easy to use, looks great, is well constructed and fits perfectly along side Vitamix's, Kitchen Aids, Cuisine Arts and other top notch appliances. I'm hooked! They recommend letting it run overnight. I do too. The fan makes a little noise, but is bare able.

Question: Why does this person want to buy this product?

I was interested in this for one purpose: to hold my pastry mat in place. Though it is "non slip" - it does, indeed, move around. So when I received the non slip table mat - I went right to work making some cinnamon rolls using the non slip mat under my pastry mat. What a joy! It firmly keeps the pastry map in place - no more chasing the dough around the table! As a bonus - I had sliced my right hand on a mandolin (and then my husband sliced his finger on it when trying to put it away - we threw it in the trash!Oxo Good Grips V-Blade Mandolin Slicerand had to get stitches and my right hand is bandaged up. Of course, my hand is a bit weaker now and cumbersome with the bandages... and I was trying to open a bottle of parmesan cheese and couldn't open it. Then I remembered that the non-slip mat could be used to open bottles and used it - it worked! So I would think this would be very helpful to those who have compromised hand strength. I love it!

Question: What the products is this product quieter than?

Works well.Quieter than our Dyson and our Bissell.Has very good suction.Wish it came with a tube extension (it only comes with one that's about 2 feet long) so reaching higher spots it a challenge.The cord rewind doesn't all work like it should. Sometimes it stops before it rewinds all the way. I also don't really care of just letting the cord rewind with some "guidance" because towards the end the plug starts whipping around and I'm concerned it will whack and damage something.I cannot recommend using this on wood floors. The SuctionSeal part actually slides along the floor and if you catch something (like sand, or a small rock) the part will push the bit around and scratch the floor so you really need to set the depth just a bit higher than "bare floor."All in all, good and works well.

Question: The user 'cheats' on what other device with this new product?

I got this coffee maker the other week before Christmas , I like it , however I have to use regular ground coffee as my fine coffe will not allow to flow the water fast enough , I purchased some good dark roast coffee from STAR**** and I like it especially when you use the bold function the coffee is strong enough for me , however I wish the temperature was higher , well in winter I warm my milk anyway and in summer I guess that will be just perfect .. one little thing is that is you use to fine coffee the dripping never stop but with regular ground coffee the process is just fine . It is clever design and the cleaning process is simple and quick .. no filters no mess , I cheat on my Tassimo with this one and for me the coffee I choice taste better , it is so much cheaper so I am keeping it , love the design and overall presentation and the price is nice also , I tried to make also tea and worked well and for sure I am not going back to regular coffee maker again that's for sure ..

Question: What is the main issue the reviewer has with the skillet?

My wife said that she wanted an electric skillet for Christmas so I did a ton of research on Amazon and this one had the best and most believable ratings I could find. Told the wife to measure and be sure of the size she wanted and she chose the 16 inch. The skillet couldn't be better, It is solidly built and very streamlined with everything handily in place for easy usage. The only problem we have found is that the wife didn't quite do her homework and we find that this big guy takes a LOT of counter space and storage space. However, we have decided that it is worth it and we will never want for a great turkey cooker if all the family drops in for a Christmas dinner.

You need a reasonable size workspace to assemble it, and if you have a couple decks of cards or thin books it helps because the base is deeper than the unit as a whole. It went together quickly. The only thing that's a bit quirky is that if you're using it just to store CDs, the vertical openings aren't uniform. If you use it with more flexible opening for other things, you won't notice it.

Question: What kind of solution did the OXO come up with to solve the problem?

Leave it to OXO Good Grips to come up with this clever solution to an annoying problem.When the stopper to our bathtub drain finally bit the dust (with hard water hastening its demise), two trips to the home improvement store later and we still couldn't find a replacement that would fit the hole, despite measuring and remeasuring the diameter.By that point we were willing to settle for showers until we discovered the OXO Good Grips Tub Stopper, which relies on gravity and suction to simply fit flatly and snugly in any sized drain. And, when done, you simply pull it up by the flap, which has a little suction cup on the back, allowing it to be stored on the inside of the tub or on the tiles.Thank you, OXO, for extending your cleverness beyond the kitchen...

Question: Is the Taylor model adjustable?

I bought this themometer along with a Taylor Classic to replace my old and inaccurate probe thermometers. I measured ice water and boiling water with each to check the 32 and 212 temperatures. The CDN measured 33 and 211 while the Taylor measured 36 and 190 degrees. I was able to adjust the accuracy of the Taylor some by using the hex bolt on the back but this calibration should have been done at the factory. Also since the Taylor calibratrion was off high at the low setpoint and low at the high setpoint it cant be accurate in the entire temperature range. I would give the CDN a 5 star rating except I've had poor reliability on previous digital thermometers. I'm hoping for this one to work well over time.

Question: Why does the author think the bags are perfect?

I'm new to using a Food Saver, and I waited until I had used quite a few of the bags, before giving this review.So far, the Food Saver Bags have worked out very well for me. I have tried different kinds of items sothat I would know if they work on wet and also dry items, and for me, they have really done a wonderful job.These bags are really easy to use, and have been perfect, mainly because the is no loss, or any waste using them.You get to make the size you need, not what's available in the stores that zip. The seals are really strong, and theprice is very reasonable too. All in all, I'm really pleased that I finally purchased the Food Saver system, and will bepurchasing these bags quite a bit in the future.

Question: Where did the reviewer get a replacement knob for the lid?

What can be said about this pot other than awsome....extremly well constructed. We (coonasses) live in Louisiana and love too cook, these pots once seasoned, cook great and last forever ... minus the Handle (knob) on the lid, it being plastic will give up it's ghost after a few cooking sessions, but can be easyly replaced w/ a cabinet knob purchased at the local hardware store, but once that is done it's forever faithful. and I can say a cabinet knob being wood customizes my lids quite nicely. I know my Lid anywhere :)

Question: What brand of iron was NOT purchased?

The price was great on this iron, and I normally like DeLonghi products, so decided to give this a try rather than purchase a Rowenta. I like the iron... the size, the look of it, the ceramic and titanium soleplate, the way the water is easy to add. I haven't yet decided if I like it when I'm doing a lot of ironing that requires steam. The steam does not consistently produce, which seems to indicate that it's not staying consistently hot even when on a high setting in order to produce the steam. This happened when I was ironing something large. I don't know yet if this is a manufacturing flaw, so can't give it a five-star rating. If I find that it is a flaw, then I'll lower the rating, but want to check into this more first.

Question: What did they like about the high fluff pillow?

I really like a latex pillow. It gives you fluff and won't quit on you. Only thing is my ear feels squeezed and irritated. BUT, I found a way around that. I cut a 7" round cup in thecenter of the pillow, about an 1-1 1/2 deep ( easy to do ) and put it back together.This gives my ear a little place to rest; without feeling squeezed and it supports, my head. Good night sleep. This will only work on memory foam or latex pillows. And you can always turn it over, to avoid the hole.I also ordered the 'high fluff' one, to try it out. But, I likethe high fluff one. More head support and it stays fluffed up.The other one is for people who like to lie their head flat, witha little fluff.

Question: What season did the person use the space heater for?

I am a little apprehensive when it comes to reviewing space heaters. Most manufacturers in this business keep changing their model numbers every year, so even if a heater gets a rave review this year, you won't be able to find the same model next year. So why bother, right?Having said, I have used this heater for the entire winter season, and it didn't break. This is more than what I can say about another heater which I also bought at around the same time. That heater died a death of clicks in only a couple of months of use. I think it was the thermostat or a relay that went bad. What a shame having to throw away an almost brand new heater in the trash!This heater is different. It is infrared heating, and it has a blower motor. It has a thermostat, which can dial down the heating elements to save you some electricity. It heats up a medium sized room very quickly. For a small bedroom, it is inappropriate as it is too much heat, so I don't recommend this for small rooms. Infrared heating is like forced air heating. It is toasty when the heater is on, but it gets cold very quickly when the heater is off. In a bedroom situation, the blower motor could be too loud for light sleepers. Keep that in consideration. If I have to do this over again, I would probably go for a radiant oil heater which keeps the room temperature more steady.

Question: What does the French Press work superbly?

At a reasonable cost, one can determine if using a French Press is at all appealing. The unit, though possibly effective, seems flimsy for long-term use. But, after finding a congenial grind which takes some time, one might then wish to "graduate" to a more expensive (and clearly superior and durable) press.UPDATE: Pitted against "conventional" Cuisinart and Gevalia 12 cup coffee machines, and using brown filters, the equivalent density of coffee from the press is totally unacceptable to my taste. Exceedingly mild and flat in flavour. However it does superbly with loose tea. Also, it should be noted that a 33 ounce capacity yields about 4 standard cups, not 8.

Question: What would happen if the product came down onto the cat?

I had the truck return it, before it arrived. All other reviewers stated that it is flimsy and that the back of it can not be put behind a sofa, because it is not finished. Also, reviews indicate that it is not sturdy, and may have to be strapped to a wall. I decided not to receive it, since I have a cat that jumps on my furniture, and I don't want it coming down and hurting him. This is not a sturdy, piece of furniture.

Question: What is one drawback to the grinder?

After two (2!) William Bound pepper mills purchased at the same time both broke in exactly the same place after only two years of use, we began looking for new mills. Who knew finding a decent mill would be so difficult? The plastic housing is off-putting, but other than that, we are happy with this mill. We prefer a truly coarse grind, and Unicorn Magnum delivers. Easy to load, produces lots of ground pepper quickly, fits will into the hand - although a little too slick if one's hands aren't perfectly dry. Easy to adjust to a finer grind, too. A similar model with an attractive natural wood-housed grinder would be a 5 star product.

Question: What word does the author use to describe the quality of the product?

I purchased a 30 lbs Energy Center Channel for a home theater and this is fantatsic way to be creative and use a large moutning system well bulit to hold up not just a receiver but also a center channel. The Eneregy speaker is over 21 inches wide and this system is heavy duty enough to gold it up. It looks great and the best part is I can come away from the wall to give the woffer ports plenty of space to breath, rather than push against the wall. I highly recomend for moutning large products that are wider than 20 inches and deeper than 10 inches. Awesome quality product that looks great! So pleased

Question: How many calories are in this popcorn

This is such a fantastic gadget. Honestly, read the packets of your microwave popcorn. Then go a step further and count the calories in that made with oil. Sure you have your fiber, but you just don't need all that to get a favorite snack.Enter this one...It's small but is a workhorse when needed for a party, popping 18 cups of popcorn in under 3 minutes. But here is the kicker: You can eat TWO cups of popcorn for only 30 CALORIES AND NO CALORIES FROM FAT.Win!Nearly 90 percent less fat than regular popped popcorn.So how does it work? With hot air. That also means there is virtually no clean up after use.It is easiest enough to use that even kids can do it and it comes with a butter or margarine melter that is also a measuring cup.Very few kernals were left unpopped. I bought Bob's Red Mill popcorn to use with it because they focus on the natural and I wanted a totally healthy snack. ( I have no affiliation but use lots of their stuff.)It's a clean and beneficial snack in so many regards and it fills you up for hours. And, at this low calorie a snack, why wouldn't you love it?

Question: What did the last kettle do?

This is a delightful kettle. I like its looks and I like its quiet whistle. My last kettle scared the dog with its shrillness. Some people have criticized how the water sputters when pouring boiling water. They've almost scalded the baby, etc. First rule with a kettle is to bring the cup to the kettle, not to carry a boiling vessel across the room, etc. Also, they must be "dumping" the water, rather than pouring. I have not had any problems and am very happy with my purchase.

I have not had any problems and am very happy with my purchase.
