Question: What does the author consume frequently?

I eat a lot of tuna. This is why I bought this tool. It works very well, and drains all of the water from the fish before I make tuna salad sandwiches - which means NO water should remain. You can squeeze all of the water out easily, and the tool is easy to clean.The only reason I gave this 4 stars is because it is made of plastic. For so many years our family owned these and they were metallic. I think it would be much better if this were made from stainless steel or heavy duty aluminum. I still use it often. A good purchase.

Question: what material was the old kettle made out of?

We purchased this water kettle to replace an old plastic version that had stopped shutting off when the water boiled. Like so many others, I wanted to get away from plastic for something we use so often to heat water. Initially it appeared well built and heated water quickly with no impact on the taste of the water. Everything was great. Well, 8 months in, the kettle stopped turning off when the water boiled. Unacceptable. That is the reason for 1 star. There were other minor points of concern. The joint between the plastic base and the metal had started to corrode. I can't say if it would fail but it looked bad. Finally, the highly polished finish shows every mark or smudge. sadly, in less than a year, i purchased another kettle.

Question: What brand of trays are more sturdier that the ice cube tray made from a mold?

So, I bought this mold, to use as an ice cube tray. Also to mould some fondant for my son's lego birthday cake. So far I've only used it as an ice cube tray. The ice comes out looking like legos, but what I don't like is that the tray is very flimsy silicone. I'm comparing it to the ikea silicone trays, and ikea's are more sturdy. This is VERY flimsy, the water was falling as I transferred it to the freezer. I still love it because the ice comes out looking like legos, and my son loves it as well. But I would suggest putting it on top of a tray while filling and transferring to the freezer

Question: What kind of better mechanism does this product have?

I used to have one similar to this one, which always tended to leak, and was made by a different manufacturer. This one seems to have a better sealing mechanism and is really sturdy. It says in the directions to hand wash only, which is not a deal breaker, but it loses a star for that as it would be really nice to put in the dishwasher. The only other reason it lost the one star is you have to be careful rejoining the two pieces as to not ruin the seal. We will see how things hold up with use and normal wear and tear. I have used it several times in the last few weeks and it has held up really well. Perfect for measuring things like corn syrup, honey, cream cheese, etc. I got the two cupper. Not sure I would get the 1 cup as it would probably be redundant.

Question: What retailer did they purchase the folding racks from?

You used to be able to find folding racks like this at the local hardware store, even the grocery store, but those days are gone here in that retail desert between the Hudson and the west coast. Thank you, Amazon, for carrying this. It fits perfectly in my oval roaster pan. I used it at 450 degrees for the first 20 minutes of roasting the chicken in the oven (turned it down to 350 for the rest of the time) and it emerged fine, coating intact. Clean up was easier than easy (I did spray it with vegetable oil first).

Answer: Amazon

Question: How does a clog have to be removed if it can't be reached?

We had this model for two years and we both hated it after the first month of ownership.It makes a mess when you empty the container and you need to do more than just empty it. The filters and the turbine get filthy very fast.When upright and using the short hose it tips over easily.In its upright position it also can burn your carpet if your not careful.The "power" brush is powered by air suction and when it gets dirty the mechanisms get bogged down and stop working.It has to be cleaned all the time too.There was a clog deep inside the machine that made awful sounds. I could not get to it without taking apart the entire machine.I was very happy today when I put it in the dumpster.We now own a Hoover Wind Tunnel Air and love it.

Question: What type of handle does the strainer have?

This is an absolutely perfect size. It is not so big that you won't find a place to store it, but large enough to hold a bunch of angel hair pasta that would slip right out of the little holes in a traditional colander. It also fits over the sink so that I can pour the pasta (or whatever I'm draining) right into it, water and all, and have the water drain into the sink.It doesn't say in the description, but this is a double weave strainer. In other words, there are two layers of thin metal mesh to ensure even the smallest seeds and particles are caught in the net.It has a traditional soft black rubber Oxo handle, too. This is important when using it over the sink as it keeps it from slipping around when the water hits it.Nice!

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 product was the reviewer replacing?

So far, I've been very pleased with the oven. I bought the oven to replace a toaster oven that fit into one of those cubby holes on my counter with a door that slides up and down.. it had very specific dimensions that it had to be, and according to the website, this oven fit those dimensions. WRONG..... there are 2 little bump outs for lack of a better word on the back of the oven that prohibit it from going flush against the wall; therefore, it doesn't fit in the spot and I cannot lower the door. To avoid having to send this back at my expense, I have kept the oven and will just have it stick out of my cubby hole. I do love the oven and the broiler... I made the mistake of using the bun/bread warmer on top to put some chicken breast fillets that I'd cooked and while waiting for the rest of my dinner to cook, I put them in the warmer. The tray in the warmer does not come out. It was difficult to clean, and I wish I'd known that before I put anything on that top level other than bread.Beside those two things, I am happy thus far with the oven, but I've only had it for about a month. I'm hoping that since I am using it so much that I'm saving power since I'm not heating up the Jenn-Air.

Question: What is the capacity?

It turned out to be exactly what I wanted. Very solid and nice to handle.Great quality.The lid seals great. Just hold the outside rim and turn the inside dial to close.It was important to find a pitcher like this that has a tight seal. I have seen others than have been described as not sealing completely. I like to keep any fridge odors out of my drinks.The lid comes off all the way in order to pour. I prefer it that way, no dripping this way. The container has a nice lip to pour out off.I been using it to mix powered milk in. I don't use a lot, so the half liter works.I will also be getting the 1 liter as I like it so much. Much better storing liquids in glass than plastics.

Question: How thick are the corners?

I purchased this mattress mostly based on prior experience. I had purchased a memory foam mattress from Amazon about 4 years ago and it was perfect - and comfortable. I thought I was buying the same item based on price and description. I bought this mattress about 6 months ago when I moved. It's not the same mattress! As others noted it never expanded to the full 10 inches (mine went to about 9 - which is OK) but the lower corners (especially 2) of the lower-firm-foam didn't fill out much - the corners are only about 4 or 5 inches thick. This does not affect sleeping comfort and actually makes it easier to put the fitted sheets on. At $300 vs. $1200+ for local priced twin memory foam I suppose one can't complaint too much - but I would not have accepted such a defect if I didn't have to send it back - and that's not easy from Alaska. After sleeping on the mattress for 6 months it is very comfortable and still no "dips" in my usual sleeping position - but those corners still bother me every time I change the sheets! Considering the price I would still buy my next memory foam mattress from Amazon but would not buy this brand.

Question: This knife is better than what knives?

This is a great knife. It's as sharp as anything I've ever owned, and trust me I've spent way too much on knives in my life. I like this one better than knives that cost closer to $150. I'm not sure how the edge will hold because I didn't order the sharpener at the time of order (it's in my cart now). I usually sharpen my knives pretty often -- once a week or so. I'll be interested to see how the blade holds on this little guy. Heck, I think I'll just order another --maybe a smaller sized one to try.

Question: What is a negative of the powerful motor?

We drink a lot of juice and got the Juiceman to save a bit of money and also get a better-tasting juice.The motor is powerful - can get loud, too, but it's well worth it when you drink the results. We sometimes use the juice to make our own juice popsicles.A couple of small dings: It does take up a bit of counter real estate, and cleanup is not all that easy. But fortunately most of the parts are dishwasher safe.But it is fun to use, watching that bowlful of fruits or veggies being condensed into a taste drink. So if you want healthy juices and refreshing beverages (and even popsicles), give this powerful juicer a try.

Question: What are the spatulas made of?

One of my very favorite kitchen utensils is a good silicone spatula. This is one of those tools I can never have enough of. I recently received a complementary set of the 3-Piece Spatula Set -Made out of ONE PIECE silicone for review and absolutely love it.My mother loves what she calls a ‘spoon-ula’. I haven’t had one of these before, but there was one included in this set. It is almost exactly like the silicone spatula I am used to, except it has a shallow indention that is very handy with some dishes. Both the spoon-spatula and the plain spatula are 10”x2”. There is also a smaller spatula that is only 8”x1”.The larger spatulas are perfect for most kitchen tasks. The silicone holds up when stirring hot dishes on the stove and the straight-edge ends do an excellent job of scraping the bottom of a pot. The same spatulas work equally well stirring cold dishes in a mixing bowl. The smaller spatula is wonderful for scraping ingredients out of small containers like canned foods or sour cream.The beauty of these spatulas being one piece is that there are no crevices for food to get trapped in, promoting food poisoning or cross-contamination. Also, one solid piece means less chance of it breaking.These tools can be easily washed by hand, but are fine in the dishwasher as well.I would recommend this spatula set to anyone who cooks.

One of my very favorite kitchen utensils is a good <hl> silicone <hl> spatula. This is one of those tools I can never have enough of. I recently received a complementary set of the 3-Piece Spatula Set -Made out of ONE PIECE silicone for review and absolutely love it.My mother loves what she calls a ‘spoon-ula’. I haven’t had one of these before, but there was one included in this set. It is almost exactly like the silicone spatula I am used to, except it has a shallow indention that is very handy with some dishes. Both the spoon-spatula and the plain spatula are 10”x2”. There is also a smaller spatula that is only 8”x1”.The larger spatulas are perfect for most kitchen tasks. The silicone holds up when stirring hot dishes on the stove and the straight-edge ends do an excellent job of scraping the bottom of a pot. The same spatulas work equally well stirring cold dishes in a mixing bowl. The smaller spatula is wonderful for scraping ingredients out of small containers like canned foods or sour cream.The beauty of these spatulas being one piece is that there are no crevices for food to get trapped in, promoting food poisoning or cross-contamination.

Question: Why do baggers like the reviewed bags?

These came promptly with gifts of an insulated bag and a pen. The first time I used the bags, I didn't realize that the bottom panels had to be put in place - I thought they were already in the bottoms. The store bagger did not notice and as a result, one of the bottom panels got bent in half and split from the bag contents. The next time I used the bags I noticed this same bag had a half inch triangular rip near the bottom - from the broken panel? I don't know. That's the only reason I did not give five stars.That said, I love these bags. They hold a lot, are sturdy and comfortable to carry. Baggers appreciate the rack loops for holding the bag in place while filling it. They fold up well, with the panels in the bottoms and the handles inside the bags. I keep them in the car at all times. Good product - good price!UPDATE I purchased and reviewed these bags in 2008. I'm updating today, 12/14/13, and changing to five stars because I'm still using these bags for groceries at least once a week. The little tear in the one bag never got bigger, and all the bags have been washed and are looking well used now, but are still going strong.

Question: How is the plastic rated?

I have struggled with space in tiny cabinets for years. I just wound up digging through tons of canned goods, wound up loosing small things and was generally unhappy about the whole situation. This worked out beautifully, especially the bottom portion which is large enough for full sized canned goods (10>16oz type). The top portion because of how small my cabinents are, doesn't hold a lot but I use it for holding things like cans of Tuna, small jars of preserves, toothpicks and etc. It holds a lot more than th picture implies, which is a good thing my book.It's not especially strong palstic, but so far it been holding up well. I've had it for a handful months and no cracks or issues so far.

Question: What word does the author use to describe the quality of construction of the item -- how was it made?

I sent this back. It seemed cheaply made and had a weird smell. It could have just been mine but seemed rather poorly constructed. the spout part is a separate piece. I have a porcelain enamel covered SS teapot but it fell and chipped on the outside. I bought this to replace that one but I tried the water alone after heating it up and it seemed to have a "different" taste. I used the same filtered water I always use. I decided to just keep using my old tea pot until I find something similar. I think the ceramic helps offer tea water with no metallic taste.

Question: In what room is the suthor using the item?

This little guy heats my bedroom every night. My room is about 250 sf and this guy heats it up in less than an hour from the daytime temp of about 50-60 degrees up to a steamy 75-80 like i like it. Then I just turn down the dial to maintain the temp i want. Really quiet, i never notice it at all when it is on the Hi or Low setting. If you set it on a specific temperature it does turn on and off successively to try to regulate a specific temp, so that could be annoying. I usually leave it on Low while I sleep. Great deal for the cost!

Question: What product recommendation does the reviewer make?

I love this pan and my other Calphalon pans! This is the perfect size for frying up 2-3 eggs and makes for easy clean up. I can't believe that I can fry eggs without oil or butter! Just use one of those silicone spatulas and you're good to go. Maybe the one thing I don't like about it is the really smooth bottom that makes it hard to keep it straight on my crappy coil stove. I also like that it's light and comes with a lid. I'll continue to by from Calphalon!

Question: How long have my old toaster lasted?

My cheapie 10 year old toaster finally stopped staying down on one side. I had been waiting for a reason to replace it for a few years and finally, this was it! Our kitchen has a lot of funky, retro pieces in it and the orange matches my 70's Sears mushroom cookie jars perfectly!I've seen other reviews saying that it took too long to toast but my old toaster needed to go twice on the highest setting to get English muffins crispy and today, I put them in the new toaster, half way, and they were dark. The slots aren't super deep that you need to get a pair of tongs to get your stuff out but they're plenty big enough to fit bagels and my homemade bread (which also didn't fit into my old toaster).My only complaint is...the power cord comes out of the front corner of the toaster and I think is pretty short. I actually had to rearrange where everything sat on my counters so that I could have it at an outlet it would reach. I can't wrap my head around why the power cord doesn't come out of one of the back corners. I have a cord running along side my toaster and then up and behind to the outlet. Not ideal looking but it works.

Question: What kind of list did the reviewer put the product on?

I honestly was very skeptical about this product, I've just heard similar claims for other products that barely made a difference. I don't like "upgrading" something I already have if it isn't worth it. However, I saw this had good reviews so I put it on my "Christmas list" and someone bought it for me. And to my delight, it actually worked. It scrapped the sides wonderfully. Normally when making icings or batters I would have to stop the machine, find my spatula and push the sides down, and even then some parts may mess up because it didn't blend correctly. But not with this. I just add what needs to be mixed continuously.

Question: The stand was hung off the back of what?

Exactly as described, except... that I expected to assemble it. It came assembled. I have a 50" plasma TV that weighs about 60 pounds on it and it holds it perfectly.I noticed that one of the reviews mentioned the underside of the top was unfinished. The one I received IS finished on the underside of the top. I moved the little rubber feet from the ends of the legs to 3" in from the edge, which allowed me to hang the stand 2.5" off the back of my credenza to make room to place a dialog speaker in front of the stand.It's a pretty basic item, but it is unobtrusive and strong.Can't say much more other than to repeat it is exactly what I expected and fits my purpose perfectly.

Question: What do you need to make sure of?

very well built although it might be difficult to manage whale putting together if you are someone who is not familiar with assembling something like this but that being said about the only thing you need that would help a lot when assembling this would be a simple rubber mallet so you could tap the shelves into place and this would be much easier to assemble if two or more people were doing it but I did it myself and did not have any problems for it is very straightforward for there are many plastic spacers that are split in half that go around the pole that when the shelf is slid through the polls it locks the shelves in place and you just have to make sure you have each spacer in the proper place because the shelves can be adjusted at about an inch in height in increments so you can have some shelves that are closer together than others.

Question: Are there large amounts of lint when using these towels?

Great product for the price. Nothing fancy; however, for me, they are the right size and serve their purpose of being used for everyday toweling. I was concerned about other reviews discussing excessive lint. While there was a lot of lint on the first wash/dry, I did not have excessive lint balls attach to me when I used them. They were soft and absorbent. I also read that the edges would ravel. I looked closely at each towel when folding. No strings or ravels were found. For a large person, you might want to consider the next towel size up. For the average person, they are adequate and do not take up large amounts of closet space like the over-sized bath towels.For general, everyday use, they are what I needed.

Question: How was the delivery of the Aladdin collapsible steamer described?

Ordered, got quick delivery, tried it out and it works. The Aladdin 32-Ounce Collapsible Steamer functions just as it's advertised.Steaming vegetables is an excellent method to retain nutrients, color and flavor. When home alone and cooking for oneself it beats the heck out of steaming on the range and when away from home, at work, or on the road it's a no brainer. It's quick and cleans up easily too. An excellent idea from Aladdin.

Question: what does the writer suggest using to clean the product?

First off - this is a semi-disposable item. The tank is extremely thin and cheaply made and I wonder how long it will last. The humidifier is easy to clean and has no 90 degree angles that are impossible to clean with a q-tip. I disinfect once a week with vinegar and otherwise replace the water in the tank daily. It's a little bit hard for my wife to align the tank properly when seating it in the base. My daughter loves the pink pig design and most importantly it does a great job of humidifying her room which is probably 14x14 or thereabouts. It's easy to change the amount of humidity. I put a little sticker on the dial so we could get the right amount each night.Update - broke after 3 months. The owl humidifier I got for my son's room made by a different manufacturer still works OK.

Question: What holes the customers vacuum, ironing board, and cleaning chemicals?

I have one tiny closet to hold my vacuum, ironing board, cleaning chemicals, and all the things needed to clean my house and the things in it, We were really having issues with the closet getting over-crowded and things falling on top of each other, and this was one of the things we bought to try to organize it. After having had it now for almost a year, I can say it's been very helpful. The ironing board, iron, and related products are out of the way from all of the other items in the closet, extending only a few inches from the door, but very accessible when time to use them. Recommended!

Question: How does the reviewer suggest to clean the tongs?

Tom Douglas by Pinzon Bamboo Tongs are good quality, strong and light. The tongs have nicely finished smooth surface and are easy to hold and grab items with.I prefer the larger tongs from the set. I use them for tossing and serving salad and find them very convenient. The size is just right and the grip is very good.The smaller tongs are OK, but I have not found a good use for them. Someone mentioned using them to get items out of the toaster, but I don't need tongs for this purpose. They could be used to serve bread, but, in my opinion, they are not fancy enough for that.The manufacturer says these are dishwasher safe, but I would just clean them by hand.Overall, this is a good quality set at a reasonable price, although I see myself using only larger tongs from the set.

Question: How long is the product's warranty?

I assume this Gen 4 unit will save energy better than than Gen 3(?) I have which is exactly the same otherwise. My 1500 watt Costco bought $199. unit (which I assumed would adjust wattage as I adjusted the heat level)just didn't. It runs at an average 1350 watts no matter what (using kill-a watt meter). So I guess they improved the unit to run at 1000 watts. A remote that works out of the box would also be helpful! Heat varies according to space requirements.Don't expect fast hot heating under 52 degrees. Best feature is its safety and non off gassing and non oxygen depleting features. Oh, a five year warranty.

Answer: five year

Question: Which one is the better?

I've used the best and some of the rest..... I have use the vita mix in the blend tec I've used the Breville Hemisphere and a few others, I honestly wasn't impressed with the blend tec , the Breville wihemisphere was one of the better ones and of course the vita mix. By choice among all raw diet and the complete vegetarian, I was at a thrift store and ended up seeing this blender the elite version for under $10 how could I resist at that price, long story short I use it three times a day as never had a problem it's works as well as my vita mix did without the cost, I would highly recommend one of these blenders.

Question: What type of opener did the owner buy the can opener to replace?

I got this can opener hoping to save money and space over an electric. For the first year or two this one worked perfectly, and I didn't at all miss having an electric opener. It did the job well and was comfortable on my hands. But I started having trouble after a couple of years, and at the 3 1/2 year mark, it needs to be replaced. It's getting a little rusty and hard to use; now I can open a can with some effort but have a lot of trouble prying it open again to take it off the can. I risk spilling the contents of the can. Also, the handles are coming a bit loose so that water seeps down into them, gets gross, and occasionally squishes out when I try to push them back in place.Granted, these issues may have been avoided if I didn't wash the can opener, or washed it much less often. But it seems to me a can opener needs to be washed when the juice from the can gets on the blade. (On the other hand, you can't throw an electric one in the dishwasher at all, which presents another issue.) So take your chances. If you're willing to handwash and meticulously dry, go without washing much, or know you just need an opener occasionally or for a couple years, this may be great for you.

Question: What does the batch feature do?

I first bought the white version of this timer about ten years ago. At that time, it sold for $30, so at $15 it's a bargain; recently I bought the black version, which with its colored buttons looks cooler than white.For the last few years, I've used the old one at least ten times a day, without ever having to change batteries. I've dropped it a few times on a ceramic floor and otherwise abused it occasionally, but all three functions still work perfectly. It's simple to set, has a "batch feature" (meaning it recalls the previous setting when you turn it off) so you don't have to reset it when you continue to use a particular setting. It's meant to be carried around your neck, if you wish, so it's on the small side and the compact button layout might not be convenient for people with arthritis.It does what it was designed to do extremely well; what more can you ask?

Question: What would make the the box more efficient?

I love baking my own bread and needed something to help me cut the slices evenly. This item works for the most part, but the plastic end has warped which makes for an uneven cut. I would suggest making the end more sturdy and less susceptible to bend.

Question: What did this person buy?

I bought these when I had a party at my house. These big green bags made it clear to everyone that this is where you put bottles and cans. After the party I've used these as my recycling bags that I keep in my pantry and garage. I used to use paper grocery bags, but they'd leak and the handles would often break. These sturdy bags are a nice alternative to my old bags and they hold a lot more so there are less trips to my outside roller cart. Overall a great buy.

Question: Which substance causes the need to weigh ingredients more?

I can never have too many scales in my kitchen. This is one of my favorite scales because it's so reliable. I weigh a lot of my ingredients, especially when I'm baking gluten free goodies, so it's important to have a good scale on hand. This Kitchen Gurus scale is easy to read with its high contrast LCD display. It also allows to tare/zero out weight as needed. The scale also measures out grams, ounces, fluid ounces and kilograms. And I like how it's easy to clean and made of durable tempered glass that can hold up to 11 pounds.

Question: What type of aesthetics are these covers?

I have an "old fashioned" stove with electric burners versus the new-fangled smooth top ranges. I love to change the look of my kitchen by simply getting new burner covers every now and then. Unfortunately, the choice of covers locally is slim. Fortunately, Amazon has an amazing selection. So many that it's hard to pick which ones I want. These barnyard covers are excellent and have stayed clean so far after almost 2 months of heavy use. A very cool look for my kitchen. I highly recommend them if you like a little bit of a country look.

Question: What is useless?

I actually like to iron and own the Rowenta Professional iron. I have used it a half dozen times and it is useless. The iron doesn't heat - not even on the cotton linen setting.As per Rowenta, inorder to have it serviced I would pack it up and send it to a service center, and pay for shipping and repair which is more than the cost of a replacement iron.It is not under warrantee as it was in storage - unused - and was purchased last summer, so it is over a year old.I have had irons last many years and they keep steaming along. This one is a disappointment.

Question: What are their large pieces of in addition to the grinds?

Pros:Can be used with no powerThe price is rightEasy clean upCons:Grind consistency is lacking. I've been playing with the course setting for days and days and cannot get a consistently sized grind for my French Press. There are large chunks of bean in with the grinds. My electric blade "grinder" has the same consistency and all I have to do is push a button and walk away.The nut on the top always comes loose when grinding. I have to stop every few turns and re-tighten it or the handle will eventually fall off.The hopper jams a lot if the grinder is left on the counter top. I have to pick it up so that the motion of turning the handle will cause the beans to fall into the grinder.

Question: What size were the crepes that the user made?

I acquired this wonderful griddle pan in a strange way: an awful old, thin griddle was used as a noisemaker to drive a pack of raccoons from our back yard. I didn't expect it to be warped beyond repair because it was banged with a stick, but it was. I never liked the thing anyway, and was glad to replace it.This griddle pan is aesthetically beautiful. The non-stick material is as tough as iron. I've made omelettes in it twice, and was told by the eater that the pan had made a huge difference in the quality of the omelette. I've also made large crepes in it, and the pan has made them much easier to flip and remove. I highly recommend this pan, even if it is a bit expensive. Over the years of quality performance and not having to replace it, it will be worth its price. I don't recommend using it to scare racoons, though.Actually, some of the prices available through Amazon are very good!!
