Question: What kind of washing method does the poster prefer?

This little cooker is awesome. Although it's not real big, it works great! I hand wash it due to the aluminum bottom so it doesn't discolor. It says you can put the base, lid, etc. in the dishwasher, but I want the handles, etc. to stay nice. Lentils came out great--much better than on the stove--and to do the veggies for a marinara sauce, was so easy. As for cleaning the inside, Bar Keepers Friend is the best, I think, as it doesn't scratch the SS, but gets it super clean and shiny. Oh, forgot to mention how great a whole chicken came out! I mixed some seasonings and then coated it inside & out, & cooked the 5 lb. bird for 30 min. or so! Yummy!! Next is corned beef & veggies...Wish I'd gotten this unit a long time ago. One last note: of the things I've made, it usually takes 10-15 mins. to reach pressure, then the cooking time, and then 10- 20 mins. to cool down on its own. Obviously, if you put it under cold water, it's faster, but most recipes say to let it cool down on its own.

Question: What did they warn to watch for?

the fact that the bottom tends to leak. Almost every time we've used this blender, we go to pour the blended drink into a glass only to find that there's a small amount of liquid escaping through the bottom of the pitcher. This can be problematic if you aren't prepared to account for the leak. Surprisingly though, this fault in its design hasn't made the blender work any less great than it's intended to. Aside from that fault, this blender is awesome.Our last blender was glass, and that's why we decided to go with plastic. No complaints or regrets there. The lock mechanism was refreshing, compared to every other blender I've ever used; which always made me feel like I was breaking it by trying to get it to snap in place. There's none of that here. I have yet to experience any of the strange motor odors I'm used to with other blenders. The lid isn't the sturdiest, and I was initially worried that the center would not prevent leaks, but there have been no leaks through the lid and the lid seems flimsy for the sake of being easy to put on/take off. And it's perfect in that regard. Loved the speed settings, and the fact that the first setting actually works its way up to full speed instead of just hitting the ground running.It's a good blender, especially considering the price. But do watch for the leaking bottom (no pun intended).

Question: How many speeds does the fan have?

I have used the big, round Honeywell purifiers for many years. This purifier looks so much nicer in my home & has such a small footprint. Comparing the two purifiers, the low, wide, round purifier & this tower, this is a lot quieter, easier & cheaper to keep the filters clean, & is a great fan. Using it as a fan is only a side benefit & not the reason I bought it. I only use it as a fan after taking a shower by moving it to the bathroom door & pointing it toward the shower to quickly dry it. You can easily choose to have it oscillate or remain stationary. Also there are 3 speeds. I keep it stationary & on high. As far as air quality, it is at least as good, but I think it is doing a better job. I can't be sure my body is not handling airborne contaminants better or that the air quality outside is not better, but when we have a burn pile outside, I have gotten quite sick before. Since using this purifier I have had no sinus problems, even when we are burning outside.

Question: When did the author first use the muffin pan?

To be honest, I wish I can give this Jumbo Muffin Pan 10 stars. This pan is way better than the muffin pan that I have now which seemed to heat my muffins unevenly.I used this pan the day after I received it in the mail and I could not be more pleased. Heat is distributed evenly and I don't have muffins that are light and some dark like I used to have with my last muffin pan. I have used this pan along with the Norpro 3600 Giant Muffin Cups which makes clean-up a total breeze. This is a real non-stick pan and you can use a paper towel to clean this pan because nothings sticks to it. I love this pan. If I can marry this pan I would :)Get this pan. You can't go wrong with this.

Question: From what material is this person's other soap holder made?

Keeps the soap hi-n-dry with ease. I like its simple rectangular shape with rounded corners, and it's big enough to hold very large bars of soap. The chrome look matches my faucet and is fairly unobtrusive. I particularly like the large drainage holes in the top part of the holder - really lets the water slough off the soap so it never gets soggy. Glad I bought this! I'll probably wind up buying another one when my wooden soap holder/drainer disintegrates, as they inevitably do (this stainless one will probably outlast me!).

Question: Why am I annoyed if the contnainers are perfect sizes?

First thing's first: 50-piece means 25 containers and 25 lids. I feel like "50 piece" is slightly misleading but hey, I guess all the manufacturers do that.These containers are really nice as they come in the perfect sizes and the lids/containers are extremely durable. I don't foresee having to toss any one of these any time soon. They will last a long, long time.The only problem is that out of the dishwasher they seem to have a residue over them. I don't know if that's a problem with the material they use collecting the soap/detergent, or if it's a problem with my dish washer but it's relatively annoying.If anyone else has a problem with this, I'd like to know out of curiosity.Other than that, nothing but good things to say about these. The lids snap together for really nice storage organization.

Question: How many bagless vacuums did the reviewer own in one year?

I was always told that Eureka was a good brand and I loved the features of this vacuum! It was cheap enough so I bought it online from walmart for $99 plus shipping since this model is only avalible online. I purchased it 6 months ago and the first month was great, I actually loved it. After that first month it's usless! If you have ANY kind of sand or dirt in your carpet, it will do nothing than toss it back at your feet and spread it around. I thought if I cleaned all the filters it would help, it didn't. The duster spinner is also useless, doesn't even suck the dirt off of that!Don't waste your time or money on this one, spend the extra $ and get something good! In my opinion, a vacuum with a bag. I have had 3 bagless vacuums in a years time and every one of them you have to get the dirt on your hands at some point in time weather if it's cleaning the filter(s) and or the bucket that holds the dirt that just flys everywhere and you have to vacuum that area again! I will be buying a bagged vacuum cleaner from now on!!

Question: what is the noise level of this machine?

Is quick and efficient. We keep it in our kitchen. Yes, it's loud, but it neither bother me NOR my boyfriend at all. As you've probably read, you can set what you want the humidity to be at and it will run until it reaches that point. No, the machine doesn't turn off when it gets to your ideal level, but it WILL kick back in if the humidity rises again. For the price and what it offers, I think it's a great deal. I don't have tons of money to spend, but this has proven to be a great investment. The tub has a nice handle to help with the watering emptying process. As mentioned, we keep it in the kitchen, so the sink is right there. So, that's how we use it. Great purchase.

Question: what temperature should you preheat the pots and pans on?

Was trying to justify spending a lot of money for a set of All Clad cookware. I am a Cooks Illustrated follower. All Clad is consistently rated tops. I still could not bring myself to spend that kind of money. I am a intermediate level cook. I am so glad I read their reviews on the Calphalon set. I purchased the 13 piece set and was wowed! The set is beautiful and does cook like a dream. I am so glad read the reviews. When cooking with these pots and pans, it is crucial to preheat them on medium heat. I use a light coating of oil, not Pam. I have cooked eggs, over easy, and no problems with sticking. Cleaning them is a breeze as well. I use a little Bar Keepers Friend and they shine right up. The cookware seems to heat evenly thanks to the tri ply construction. I am totally thrilled with my purchase and am so happy to have saved well over $1200 by going with the Calphalon.

Question: What haven't they tried making with it?

it looks nice on my counter but a couple of notes here: first of all the lever to make toast is a little fussy, must make sure it goes all the way to the bottom and catches. I think a little inferior workmanship. Secondly, contrary to previous poster, we need to set it at five to get toasted browned bread. The four setting he spoke of only toasts the top of the crust, not the whole slice. Havent tried it on bagels yet, so perhaps that setting will be better for thicker, ie: closer to the element cooking. But , for the money, it's an ok toaster but i suspect that it may not last forever like toasters of the past! Everything is so "throw away" anymore.

Question: What kind of an issue does the reviewer say the thermometer has of why they don't recommend it?

I just started using this Deep Fry Thermometer and I'm very unhappy with it. The way it is designed with the metal prong on the side of it does not stay stable on the pot. It's very flemzy. It keeps falling off the side of the pot and plus the temperature drops when you start cooking. It is not a stable thermometer, and you can get burn when this thermometer drops off the pot. Plus the temperature gauge is not stable when cooking at a high temperature of 350 degrees. The temperature starts dropping when you start cooking in the pot. I turn up the heat and the thermometer continues to drop. I would not recommend this product the way it is designed to anyone. To me it's a safety issue. I'm looking for a more steady deep fry thermometer that will fit firmly onto the pot. When I was using this thermometer I tried to make it secure onto my pot, but it fell off my pot 3 times, and I almost burn myself when it fell. For this price it should be working better than this.

So far no complaints! I've used it to cover a pan when frying to prevent splatters, and also as a flour sifter. Worked better for the first purpose, but just fine for the second as well. I read reviews complaining about rust forming, so I'm careful to wash it right after using and drying it well, and I haven't had that problem yet. My only comment is if you use it with a hot pan, it also gets hot, so be careful not to touch it except at the handle. (This is probably quite obvious, but in a moment of distraction I forgot and burned myself. Still rating 5 stars since this is not a problem with the screen!)

Question: What did they need this for?

We needed this to smooth out the table skirts of our retail booth at craft shows and festivals. The first time I used it, I was setting up the booth while it heated up — and it went off like a tea kettle except instead of whistling, it began spewing hot water! As you plug it in, keep a close eye on it so this doesn't happen to you.It worked well to get the wrinkles out. Not great, not instantly, but with enough passes over the heavy fabric, most of the wrinkles fell away.

Question: What is the tool not designed for?

I love my microplane, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that I love this Cusipro Fine Rasp Grater as well! Different things grate slightly better or worse based on the size of the etched holes (microplane has more variation) -- but overall, very similar. Since the surface area on the Cusipro is larger, it gets through jobs a little faster. I also like the feel in my hand and protective bottom. Well done, Cusipro!Overall, this tool is perfect for hard cheeses, chocolate, zesting citrus and similar tasks. It is not designed for softer cheeses or veggies -- leave those to your box grater or food processor.

Question: What texture is the surface of the items?

This is a very nice bamboo kitchen utensil set. The only complaint I have about the quality is that there is some roughness to the surface area of the utensils, and I almost gave myself a splinter when handling the cylinder, so I will dock it one star only, for lack of craftsmanship. But other than that, this is a very functional bamboo set.

Question: what kind of timer did they have before

It is very simple to use and I don 't know why I stuck with manual timers as long as I did. My last timer which was a Sunbeam manual timer cured me of my ignorance; it couldn't keep proper time and would sometimes stop ticking all together or other times the buzzer wouldn't ring or very softly.This timer costs less than any timer I have previously bought but you get a lot of bang for your buck! I really liked the memory function so when I make cookies for example with one push of a button; I can reset it for the same time again and again.

Question: The pasta maker had what kind of crank?

This pasta maker is really easy to use. Simply bolt it to your counter top using the included clip, adjust the knob to desired thickness and feed in your dough using the hand crank, progressively adjusting to the knob to make the dough thinner each time you send it through. Once thin enough, throw on your pasta attachment to select the type of pasta you want- either spaghetti or fettuccine and feed the dough through using the hand crank- and presto! you have fresh pasta. It's really that easy to use.Cleaning is pretty easy as well. Simply rub off any excess flour using a damp cloth and take a damp paper towel and feed it through each of the dough and pasta attachments using the hand crack. I highly recommend this for anyone considering making pasta.

Question: How many ounces are in the keg shaped version?

If you are going to only use this in a cup holder, it is great! It insulates well and keeps my water cold and refreshing.The big design flaw is the top-heavy design. I have knocked this thing over many many times and sometimes 3 or 4 times in one sitting. Last night, the wind blew it off of the bleachers while watching a ball game.Also, the lid is a bit warpy and will not seal perfectly.If you decide to wash in the dishwasher, it will get water inside of the double wall and leak all over the place for about 15 minutes.I wish I could give more stars because I love the capacity and insulating, but the top heaviness makes it almost unbearable.UPDATE:I got another one of these, because I lost the first one. The lid does not leak on the second. It is still a top heavy mug, but you learn to adjust.If you don't need the cup holder, then get the keg shaped version in the same 34 oz size. I use one for around the house to keep my water refreshing without sweating on the furniture.

Answer: 34 oz

If you are going to only use this in a cup holder, it is great! It insulates well and keeps my water cold and refreshing. The big design flaw is the top-heavy design. I have knocked this thing over many many times and sometimes 3 or 4 times in one sitting. Last night, the wind blew it off of the bleachers while watching a ball game. Also, the lid is a bit warpy and will not seal perfectly. If you decide to wash in the dishwasher, it will get water inside of the double wall and leak all over the place for about 15 minutes. I wish I could give more stars because I love the capacity and insulating, but the top heaviness makes it almost unbearable. UPDATE: I got another one of these, because I lost the first one.

Question: How does the author emulate his favorite restaurant's desserts?

So, my favorite Thai restaurant stopped making the dessert I liked, so I decided to try and emulate them with this grill. I won't blame the grill for my crappy batter, but I will say that this didn't sit straight on top of my gas stove (standard size), it kept wobbling. Also, I'm generally a fan of cast iron, but even when oiled, the batter stuck to the divots which were really annoying to clean. Bottom line, I have only used it once, and I can't bring myself to try again.

Question: What was the reviewer skeptical of?

I bought a down-alternative comforter for my son. I decided to buy a sheet set to make a Duvet Comforter cover with.I let him pick out the sheet set pattern and he chose this one. I was a little sceptical in how the quality of the sheet set would be, especially if I sewed it together with a matching solid color flat sheet.Well, I was happily suprised when this set arrived. The set was of great quality and these sheets will stand up to many washings. The top sheet is now sewn together with a matching solid sheet to make the comforter cover, and the fitted sheet and pillow cases are great!Highly recommend this sheet set.

Question: The author states what everyone loves is?

Most everyone loves a sweet treat and when the treat is made in your own oven, the freshness and flavor are often second to none. A good baking tool makes the process much simpler and this baking aid from Freshware is certainly one to consider buying. It helps create up to 30 shapely, delicious sweet treats from scratch, right in the comforts of home.Candy isn't usually baked in the home and part of the reason is the lack of appropriate baking molds. With this simple, silicone device, an individual can make candies that keep their form and look every bit as nice as they taste. With other baking sheets, the candy doesn't always hold itself together, but there is no problem with this Freshware mold. Each piece of candy pops out of the mold in perfect condition, like a work of art, ready to display on a plate and enjoy for dessert or a snack.This candy mold utilizes non- stick silicone and it is reasonably easy to clean. The flexibility makes it easy to pop the candies out of the molds without damage and that means less cleanup afterward. Other baking molds do not have a reliable non- stick surface like this one and not only does it lead to sloppy looking candies, it also means more scrubbing and scraping to remove the leftover bits of candy when cleaning. With this simple, inexpensive candy baking mold, there is little to do. A little warm water and minimal scrubbing/wiping and the job is complete.We usually prefer to buy candy already made but with this Freshware candy mold, creativity in the kitchen is more commonplace than before. Candy prepared with this baking mold looks and tastes great and for such a low price, you really cannot go wrong.

Question: What is the brand of the item I got?

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: Other than tea, what can be put in the IngenuiTEA?

I have always enjoyed tea and more recently loose leaf tea. I needed any easy way to enjoy my loose leaf tea and my searches led me to the IngenuiTEA. I bought it from Amazon, since it is cheaper then on Adagio's website and upon receiving it I tried my first brew. It was so easy to use, I was in awe! Open the lid, put desired amount of loose leaf tea (or ground coffee) in, pour hot water in (I use my Keurig machine, without a KCup) seep for appropriate amount of time and then (and this is the best part), put the Ingenuitea over a coffee mug and press it down a bit. The strained tea pours into your cup. It should work with any size mug- I have tried all sizes, even travel mugs and so far haven't found one that it wouldn't work with. Clean up is easy... I simply put water in, and dump out into my disposal. I love that it holds 16 oz, so I can enjoy a couple cups and also that it is 100% BPA-free. Everyone who has seen the IngenuiTEA in action has wanted one and I have given it as a gift as well. It's the simple things that make my day and a great cup of tea that was a breeze to make is one of them! Enjoy!

Question: What did they recommend to use to keep them sparkling?

I have just about every piece in this line and I love it..the pans all cook evenly and with less heat than any other cookware I've used. Keeping it shiny and beautiful is easy..just follow the instructions that come with it. A little bit of white vinegar after washing keeps it sparkling. I don't have a dishwasher and it's easy to clean. The ONLY drawback is that you have to use a towel of pot holder to lift the lid when they're on the stovetop because they get hot. I've recommended it to friends and they love it, too. You can go from stove to oventop. It's very versatile. Buy it! You can't beat this price.

Question: How were the reviews?

I have been a loyal Starbucks client for years and enjoy a super rich cup of coffee, more like a small with a shot of espresso in it. This little one cup brewer does the job much less mess and fuss. I set my brew to the smallest cup and make a double and I am off to the races (if like me you race around a desk and files and co-workers). I bought some of their stock first thing this morning. I had reservations as it got some low reviews but for me it is wonderful and no more throwing out half pots of coffee.

Question: What kind of enthusiast is this necessary for?

Considering that most high quality decanters come without stoppers, this simple object should be essential for most wine lovers. We don't often decant wine, and when we do, we usually consume the whole bottle in one evening. However, this stopper is perfect for those times when you can't finish the wine the same day. It is high quality glass, free of bubbles and defects. It is satisfyingly heavy and very good quality. Additionally, it fits both of our decanters (Spiegelau and Riedel) perfectly, giving us the chance to enjoy the wine in decent condition the next day. We are very pleased with it.

We don't often decant wine, and when we do, we usually consume the whole bottle in one evening. However, this stopper is perfect for those times when you can't finish the wine the same day. It is high quality glass, free of bubbles and defects. It is satisfyingly heavy and very good quality. Additionally, it fits both of our decanters (Spiegelau and Riedel) perfectly, giving us the chance to enjoy the wine in decent condition the next day. We are very pleased with it.

Question: What type of vacuum is reviewed?

Good suction, plenty of accessories and reasonably light weight. I'm not going to pretend that it makes vacuuming the house any more pleasurable but it is definitely a lot easier than wrestling with the Dyson, which got nicknamed "The Beast" soon after its arrival. It is also delightful to have a bagged vacuum again that allows me to vacuum the entire house multiple times without having to empty the bag, unlike the Dyson which had to be emptied three times for one cleaning. (I do have three Rottweilers, so we don't lack for hair on the floor). As some others have said, the cord is a trifle short but luckily, I have an abundance of outlets and if that's its biggest flaw, I can't complain too much. I think the price is quite reasonable considering all that you get.

Answer: bagged

Question: Does the reviewer intend on keeping or returning this item?

I had high hopes for this little oven as I am a widow and it seemed like the perfect appliance for one person. First of all, it takes much more time to cook everything than is advertised. I can cook food on conventional stove, electric grill, or microwave faster and more efficient than this oven. The grill is placed too far from the heating element so browning is never accomplished. Finally, whenever you are finished cooking an item and attempt to remove the dome from the base, it comes apart in your hand and the dome becomes disconnected from the power head. I have burned myself twice from this occurring. I know a lot of people have given rave reviews on this item, maybe their expectations are lower than mine. At any rate, this is a disappointment to me and I am returning it..

Question: how did the user have plates organized before?

Helps organize a good amount plates(about 12-14per shelf). I had the plates stacked on each other and it was cumbersome to get the one you wanted. Now it's much easier

Question: The customer states that the one cover piece tends to make  it hard to do what?

This coffee maker does a good job of brewing a fine tasting cup of coffee.The controls are simple and easy to read.It brews pretty quickly and holds a hot pot for a couple of hours.Our last Krups machine was easier to add both water and grounds. The one piece access cover to both coffee grounds and water addition make it somewhat clumsy to do a fast clean job.There is a tiny little target to add water and the top gets in the way of draining the carafe into the water reservoir.I don't care for cleaning the stainless lid much either but I'm retired and lazy as the day is long! The carafe is not so easy to empty the last drop out of either. It did not meet our expectations and I would not purchase it again.I hope Krups comes out with a better design by the time we need to buy another.

Question: What are the instructions like?

This is my second simplehuman product. As with the first, a shower rack, I am quite happy. The design of this trash can is quite good. The step lever works well, gently opening and closing. The height allows for a somewhat narrower width which helps in my relatively small kitchen. There is minimal assembly involved when you take the can out of the box. Instructions are sensible and simple, and most are affixed to the can itself. It has a pet proof locking lid which I will appreciate every time I drop bones into the can watched by two drooling and determined poodles. It also seems to seal nicely, which will keep kitchen odors down.

Question: Who makes the product?

While I love a lot of OXO products, I this this one is pretty mediocre. I don't think the design is that great and I'm not into the white color. It's also overpriced for so much plastic.The rack assembles very easily since there isn't much to it. It sits on the door top snugly thanks to the rubberized self-adjusting clamp. But I'm a bit surprised that it's not secured to the door in any other way. The back of the rack bar isn't padded, so it just slides/bangs around on the door - it would have been nice to have some rubber feet and maybe a strap that secures it to the door edges. The towels also kind of sit atop each other if they're of decent size, which doesn't help them dry effectively. This rack isn't designed to dry more than one body-sized towel; the other two towels better be hand towels. Lame.

Question: What is being used to warm the chicken during lunch break?

I wanted one of these so badly. My sister bought this for me as a gift. It is not at all easy to clean. With the first use, the silver backsplatter sheild had burned-on goodness all over it that could not be removed. Cleaning the stuff that goes inside, especially the cage that holds chicken parts, takes some skill and patience - things I don't possess in great measure. The skin of the chicken sticks to the inside. I've tried spraying it with non-stick cooking spray and it helps a little but not enough. Also, a few times the chicken that I had placed in the tray came out bad in some places. At first I thought I was being hoodwinked by the local grocer and getting bad chicken parts. I make my food to bring to work for lunch and can't have the smell of rotting chicken eminating from the microwave in my office and this seems to happen consistenly with this rotisserie. Not when I just bake the chicken in the preheated oven. Right now it's just taking up space on my table. I'm getting rid of it.

Question: Why does reviewer eat semi cold lunches?

PROS:I pack my lunch everyday to office. I hate to walk to microwave to heat it up , so end up eating semi-cold lunch. Voila!, Crock-Pot solved the problem. Now I get a pleasant, flavorful and hot lunch. Wonder why no one knew about such a simple idea,but powerful concept.Hats off to Crock-pot if they are the first one. The size is good enough as well but this is not for cooking up frozen lunches. Just heating up prepared lunch.CONS> A traditional lunch box is not deep and wider. But this one is deep ..at the bottom is less convenient (esp noodles, Pasta)> There is no On/off switch which is a nuisance. In an office cubicle, usually plug points are set below your desks. The manufacturer claims it is fine to leave the unit plugged but why leave it on when you do not need to !> The food container that holds the lunch , when open and ready for eating is little above the warming base. The Food container is hot and u have to consciously hold the warming base and not the food container...You will get burnt.All of the Con's can be fixed easily . Probably Cost considerations led the manufacturer to cut corners!

Question: What are the colors?

These dishtowels are beautiful, soft, absorbent and a very good size. I washed them in in warm water and dried them on hot, and they did not shrink (as far as I can tell - I didn't measure them before washing). I like the colors (pink and yellow on a light tan background) and the design (they remind me of Japanese prints). I can't say why, but they make me happy. The price is also terrific - I'm sorry that I also bought another set of three more expensive dish towels, which are fine, but nothing special. I like these so much more, and now I can't justify buying another 3-pack for a while. Then again, maybe i will anyway.

Question: what "great" things did the author buy

My closet has a steel modular unit that has shelves. These shelves had an amazing way of collecting piles of clothes, hats and flip-flops. Well collect no more, little shelves, I bought these great little baskets. I was able to neatly fold clothes and then place into them into the baskets. They slide easily out so I can retrieve my items. I ordered 2 sets of 6, which was surprisingly shipped (with my Prime membership) in ONE day instead of the FREE 2 day....what a bonus!I have these baskets in other sizes and have had them for years. They are the only brand of basket that actually stands up to years of abuse and use.

Question: Where did the author used to put plates, but it always made a mess?

Bought two of these to use as a lunch / spot tray for my children. They eat more at lunch if they are allowed to graze while playing. Putting their plates on the floor always ended up in a mishap. These trays have been well received. The kiddos have left their plates on the tray rather than taking them with them to where they are playing and come back and forth to pick. My daughter has also enjoyed using the tray as a coloring spot. They are not super rigid and as an adult you can easily flex them but in my opinion they are great for a childs use.

Question: How many adjustment speeds does the product have?

I love this heater as it can fit in any corner of the house and do the job of keeping it warm. The colour is great as it blends into any colour scheme and the weigh is great as it can easily be lifted. This is the best lil heater ever as it is also quiet and the light on top lets you know that it is plugged in or 'on'. The heater also acts as a fan wow! It can blow cool air as well as hot air. It has many adjustment speeds to suit your preference. And it really does not look like the traditional heater. The shipment speed was great from amazon and love this. Would highly recommend this item.

Question: What caused several bowls to break?

These are working perfectly for our needs, it is great to have a variety of bowls in different sizes on hand. There is always one the right size whether we need one egg or a tablespoon of flour or room for a double cake mix. We love having clear glass bowls because we can see what is in them from any angle. This is the fourth set of Duralex Lys bowls I've purchased for myself since 1974. I still have pieces from all the other sets but a recent Earthquake caused the shelf they were on to crash breaking several of the bowls, so we bought this set which has all the smaller bowls (our largest bowl is intact and gets used daily even though it is over 40 years old.) Anyway Duralex is my first choice for mixing and prep bowls and I intend to get sets for my children when they leave home so they won't take mine.
