(nothing says "yuck" like a flat or half-flat BB&J;)Packing lunch is quick and easy - just assembly-line the boxes !
The second cracked after my husband decided to make tea in it and poured boiling water onto the tea bags .
And being stainless, I can see these lasting for many many years to come.
I have great comfort that this will protect the mattress from his reckless sleeping body .
Also, I didn't like that the handles trapped dirt and water , which would slowly leak out.
The photo shows a shower curtain with metal grommets .
They are hard plastic, so they may be best for inside the cupboard rather than a formal dining table.
So much better than my old Roomba (with its hard to clean brush and its bumping hard into stuff).I do think the Neato is better at cleaning carpet than hard surface .
Its handy and easy to hold and the cord is very long so it stretch a long way.
My one negative issue so far is the unit with the bowls needs plenty of storage room .Highly recommend but you will need storage room.
I bought this cooker because my last routinely gave me a surprise - often scorched - batch.
Bought this for our Olympic Queen mattress (which is a funny size to find bedskirts for) - and it works GREAT!
I wouldn't use it for expensive shirts that you'd wear to an expensive reception, but you'd probably get those dry cleaned anyways.
Essentially, I there $40 down the drain and my kids, who love waffles, are going to be devastated.
I keep my pans under the sink in tiny apartment kitchen.
Built like a tank .
I have a small, older Vornado that is now over 15 years old , made in USA.
It has a paper seal over the top that you leave on, and no upper basekt like the units I am familiar with (that you can refill).
i use a camp chef stove and recently purchased their pizza oven . haven't tried the oven yet, but it's clear that if you buy that you will need one of these "peels" (oversize spatula) to get things in and out.
The Rotisserie is also a great feature..... makes awesome chicken .I think my old oven will only be used when I need to cook a turkey.
I have eaten leftover spagetti and other things that would utterly stain other containers, but these clean up like new.
The top is silicone, the bottom is stainless steel .It is quite lightweight, and collapses into a pack about the size of a thick paperback.
It cut into the lid so smoothly I couldn't tell it was working .
This heater works just great for us, no "hot wall plug", no "short cycling of the fan/heat" and it keeps my Mom happy during these unusually cold days we have had in the south this winter.
I don't have a dishwasher and it's easy to clean.
had bought a KitchenAid for myself previously and bought this for my neice.
It easily removes by pulling out the big button, no marks left. This is a fantastic device.
This time, I decided to go different route in that I looked around for coffee maker that is low priced and yet, had pretty decent review.
I've finally given up on my husband's old Bella Cucina Belgian waffle maker that makes soggy waffles no matter what I do.
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.
While the steam press did leave my husband's shirts incredibly crisp and looking almost like they were done by the dry cleaner's (there was also a slight crease on one side of the collar, created when I rotated one pressed side of the shirt so that I could press the other side), it did not save me enough time to be worth the effort.
I have stored strawberries for weeks without them molding or going bad.
Really wish I got these sooner !
My only problem was the fact that this product gets so hot that I am afraid of it melting or burning something down .The company in my opinion needs to safety test this product a bit more closely.
I seared a pot roast, removed it ,deglazed with wine ,softened some onions and garlic put it back in with some mushroom soup and put the lid on.
I defy anyone to find a better vacuum for 80$ .
Addendum:I went to a Foreman jumbo .
The instructions didn't make sense , but the product picture is clear.
(nothing says "yuck" like a flat or half-flat BB&J;)Packing lunch is quick and easy - just assembly-line the boxes!I love that lunches for my two kids and I fit all together in the Easy Lunchbox insulated tote for when we go on picnics in the park/zoo, we do not need separate lunch bags.and
but it is definitely a lot easier than wrestling with the Dyson , which got nicknamed "The Beast" soon after its arrival.
The digital controls are a change over other units I've used which had an old style mechanical kitchen timer.
One issue is that it is not refillable. It has a paper seal over the top that you leave on, and no upper basekt like the units I am familiar with (that you can refill).
I cook large meals for just myself and these are the perfect size to make freezer meals I can take out to heat in the microwave for dinner.
This is hands down, the BEST blender I've ever had and the 7 year warranty lets me know that Oster will stand behind this powerful blender for years to come.
I wouldn't recommend putting anything but water into the kettle to avoid accumulating undesirable residues .
I gave it 2 stars , because it is good for mincing garlic and chopping dried fruit and nuts.
It is stainless steel with punched holes that allow small tea particles into the cup.
Great product and it fits perfectly on a two burner Coleman.
When I received the cutting board , it was perfectly level.
The suctions cups are ineffective on my tile
It was much easier than trying to roll/slide/move the loaves into the pan any other way .The Super Peel is great when moving soft/sticky pizza or any sort of dough from your working surface into the oven.
3 speeds; oscillates, or not; air can be directed up/down/straight ahead; quiet .
Though they say it is dishwasher safe there is no need.
The only positive thing I can say about this is that it LOOKS great .
The other thing annoying is the loud beeping noise when setting the heat and time.
The plastic is the glossy kind that scratches if you look at it wrong and attracts every bit of dust and pet hair in the house.
Bought this because using a regular spatula to serve food like cake or lasagna is a hassle.
The shelves have to be put on before installation but can be adjusted once installed.
The oder from used oil does get around the kitchen and may annoy family members sensitive to it.
However it really would be interesting if these aren't just random numbers and letters around the outside of the cup and there was an actual solution that was really cleverly disguised.
The griddle does a good job of not letting food stick and I really like the tilt n' drain function.
You can put your hand on the side while it is in use and not get burned (of course do NOT put your hand on the TOP when it is in use).
Make a great college gift or for a person who only has a cup or 2 of coffee or tea at a time.
After only one use, the zipper has broken.
If you're like me and don't like the excess water, a quick drop in a colander does the trick.
First of all, it is only printed on one side - the other side is white.
I love the professional look of steel cookware but wanted the convenience of Circulon's great nonstick interior.
I don't can any homemade jams or jellies or pickles, but I juice and then separate it into single servings in mason jars.
(Maybe 60 sqft ) It works really well to keep the chill out of the room, especially with the door closed.
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.
We sometimes use the juice to make our own juice popsicles .A
My particular set has tight fitting glass lids (this was not an Amazon purchase) which I prefer over the stainless lids.
The suction cup feet are a bit odd but really thoughtful addition - almost acts like a third hand to keep the machine from walking on the counter while running .
We bought this to replace a VERY large, very white (turned brown!) toaster oven that was about 10 years old .
The spinning mechanism is at the bottom , and it pops out when the frother is done warming up the milk.
I have a bigger processor as well, but this is great for small jobs, and ridiculously easy to clean .
If you tend to wander away to the other side of the house and forget the kettle is on the stove, you likely won't hear this little fellow whistling and should buy a bigger, louder teakettle.
Vary the strength by adding more or less coffee than recommended.
Gave them to a college student friend of mine as she could use anything.
Other glasses also often have a dimple in the bottom of the cup section that can be difficult to clean out.
I like that this doesn't leave shavings and paper shreds along the top to contaminate the food .
The baseboard heater is extremely expensive to run in the winter. We were looking for an alternative which would still keep our play room nice and toasty warm.
Use this frother, along with a Bialetti stovetop espresso maker and your own skim milk , plus whatever other ingredients you like, and you have Starbucks for about a quarter (or less) of the retail price.
This coffee maker is great, it heats the water very well resulting in the brewed coffee @ 165-168 degrees F .
The only downside is that this base of the device is pretty darn hefty ...but of course it probably has to be to house a motor this powerful.
At $ 200 a pop, you simply don't throw it out.
It lets me open the wine cork so easilly and I can enjoy my wine without the difficulty- works great!!!
This iron also has a retractable cord which is a very handy feature.
Even though its made of metal it doesn't seem that the base is heavy enough for the motor and the spinning fan blades so this isn't too good.
I was surprised at the reviewer who expected the steamer to get too hot to handle?This smaller version of the dry-cleaners steam press works well .
My only criticism is that in the rare circumstance when I'm holding something VERY hot (e.g. a tray fresh from a stove on 400F+) for 15+seconds my hands will start to get hot.
Either way, these little sleeves will bring good beer to drinkable temperature in about ten minutes if it's in the bottle, five in a can.
Very nice quality too .
They're in sealed bags of 100 , and each bag has its own "zipper" seal.
Won't be of any use in the kitchen for wiping up spills and such.
The only potential problem I see is the so called " memory effect " where repeated charging following only partial discharging causes the battery to remember the smaller charge.
He is hard on sheets and the old one was thread bare and looked like he slept on it most nights because the sheets manage to work themselves off during the night!
Update 5/31/13 The silicone gasket has loosened and is warped (probably from me being so lazy and washing it in the dishwasher-even though it says it is dishwasher safe).
I purchased this blanket for my 93 year old mother .
With French press style coffee and even more so with the Kuhn Rikon there will be some unavoidable sludgy grounds that will settle out in the bottom of your cup.
Each fall for the past 10 years I make about 75 to 90 pounds of of saurakraut.
They are very comfortable as they have a give to them that lets them almost form to you.
Easy to put on with 2 people -- doable with one.
Everyone who's tried them enjoys them .
a $10 standard 2qt crock pot, which will have a lot more options for a fraction of the price.
I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have.
I received it on a Friday, discovered the issue Saturday and sent an email to Amazon customer service Sunday.
My husband and I had to get creative when we moved into a place that had a master bedroom without a closet .
I have looked at other silicone brushes in specialty kitchen shops like Sur La Table , but this brush is better than the brushes I saw there.
The other day I was invited to my mother’s house for dinner .
Didn't think that this would be a very good vacuum but needed an upright for the small amount of carpeting I have in my new home...
dangerous to injest this coating.
I think 1 cup Clorox per gallon water and then rinsing in tap water works better and does not leave an odd taste.- If you live in a warm climate and use the carboy, you should google how to make an airlock run off before brewing (this is something that happens with carboys and has nothing to do with the kit)
I then can use the bowl for the salad!The pull tucks neatly into the lid , lid seems snug to the spinner, plenty of spaces for the water to drain through, and the strainer sits enough away from the surrounding bowl to keep the produce from touching the water that's spun out.
The intake is smooth plastic, but I suspect it could scar some furniture, or at least leave minor tracks on the surface; it did not on my furniture, but the manufacturer should buffer the end with a brush or felt.
We have 7 inch set which is not too tall but tall enough to have a good look on the counter top and great grip and feel.
Note: For what it's worth, these pans are made in China , unlike the Calphalon Commercial from yesteryear.
You need to distribute the weight evenly, because it can tip over if too much weight is put on one side.
I am not a fan of most "single use" items and am not into having a gadget for every little task, but this lid rack solved a big frustration for me with canning, and so I feel it is worth it.
The things I got, two at least, just look like flat plugs .
This sorter is fantastic!
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!
First, it takes a long time to charge--hours, in fact; and then the suction began to decrease and lose steam after only 10 minutes !
I was poised to purchase an electric knife sharpener .
Well I attempted to fix it myself thinking any product of this type would have an inline fuse .
The main mug is easy, but the top, with all of the mechanical elements, proves to be a little difficult and still retains a bit of a coffee aroma after cleaning.update: after using this for a couple of months, I've found the cleaning to still be difficult, however, the best remedy seems to be to fill 1/3 of the mug with hot water and rigorously shake it upside down in order to losen any remaining residue.
And for proper install, you would also have to buy pipes and valves that would let you bypass the filter in order to swap it out.
Along with that, some fruit, I have to cut up just so it fits.
Liked this product so much, I bought 7 of them as gifts, all greatly appreciated....even got a lunch text photo from my son, the engineer and a big thank you from my Marine!
I really like this griddle because I like the cooking space, BUT the griddle cooks unevenly. I'm not sure if this will go away over time.
I've been using this coffeemaker for some time now.
I actually like to iron and own the Rowenta Professional iron .
it is a top quality product and i'm glad i bought it.
I have to say even after 3 moves, this bed has held up fairly well .
amazon .com/Calphalon-Unison-Nonstick-10-Piece-Cookware/dp/B0028S7R58/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_topThese Nylon Utensils protect our cookware, they are very durable, wash well in dishwasher or by hand - (no spotting / falling apart as other reviewers have stated).
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 .
Will it last for ten years? Probably but the plastic parts might not. And the price is beyond reasonable.
I am going to purchase another one, but definitely from a more reputable company ....
For one, I'm a John Wayne fan, and this mug along with my 2012 John Wayne calendar help motivate me to work on my projects.
They wash and dry very easily but shrink up a little, so this time I ordered the 30 x 40".
The main problem I have with this pan is that the base is really really small .
First of all it is made in the US .
It died while making cookie dough .
Although the packaging said I was getting a 6" 'Cook's' knife , what I actually received was an 8" 'Chef's' knife (and that was fine with me).I had hoped the block would also accommodate the Calphalon (See my review of this bargain.)
I finally got tired of fighting it and decided to try using a filter .
I have very small hands , so its easy for me to clean.
Since it's much easier to use, I tend to vacuum the whole house 2-3 times per week .
We picked up a William Sonoma remote meat/temp probe a while back.
This silicon muffin pan actual works well...and I was a little surprised about that.
We also looked at the Simple Human brand while in the store, but this Kamenstein paper towel holder looked nicer and appeared to be just as good quality, at half the price .
As with other Pinzon products I own, these knives are of excellent quality, well balanced and comfortable to hold.
but of course it probably has to be to house a motor this powerful .
I sent it back the next day. Do not waste your money.
This oven is better that the GE big oven in my kitchen and takes 15% less time and probably 30% less electricity.
I've had mine 3 years now so I know what I'm talking about, it replaced a Toast Master convection oven
Bought it about 3 years ago at a known kitchen store.
I have had this pillow for nearly 5 months and it's still holding its shape. I start off as a side sleeper then end up on my back.
The same Model but in White , didn't fare so good with users comments, funny.
With a recent downturn in the temperatures up here in the Pacific NW , I needed an extra "layer" -- saw this, read the reviews, and ordered it.
I am pretty picky with these things, but this duvet insert is perfect for me.
Then I tried to roll it out, it was so stiff I was using my whole body weight to roll it.
This was on sale at such a good price that I had to try it.
the seasonsed surface worked perfectly for me 1st time.
Before buying these gorgeous glasses , I read a lot of reviews about how the glasses broke so easily and I just want to say that those glasses had to have been from a bad batch.
GREAT wine lover Host/Hostess gift! I love it and so glad it was invented -- sure beats a bucket of melted ice!
** Update 9/4/13 : taking off a star.
My only real gripe is that it does not stand in place on it's own; if you don't have enough material inside to balance it out, it will fall over .
Lined with light weight foam rubber, the box is impractical for knife storage .
It has very soft sides , so you will have to package your food in a durable container to prevent it from being crushed.
I am going to only buy Lodge from now on.
With this grinder, I load the spices in...boom, boom and boom - literally 3 pushes, I got beautiful spices ground to fine powder in about 7 SECONDS !
Weak tea'' only happens when you don't use enough teabags .
Then coming back with ample time to allow the decal to dissolve, I reached into the water to pull it out and my hand went into the ring and my finger came across the inside of the ring that is creased over.
This is a situation I almost never run into, so, if I could, I'd give this product 4.5 stars.
The nice part was that the shelves lined up perfectly so that everything is mounted to actual studs rather than just dry wall.
This mixer is a good bread dough device but a good hand mixer is still preferred for many batters.
I purchased one of these two years ago then a 2nd unit last year .
This is true; other vacuums are easier to shove about and this one is not power assisted .
One thing they do to help you get consistent results is to use regular charcoal briquettes, this made our first few tries successful.
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 failed to remove harder stuck-on gunk (fruit residue, for example), but did well with minor spots (where milk spilled, for example).
The lid is sturdy and easy to thread on every time.
The mushroom popcorn was purchased on Amazon (Mushroom Popcorn Kernels -
Comfy soft, non-skid bottom and very absorbent .
In addition, there were many other flaws (such as bubbles in the glass) in all three of the bowls .
and is still going strong - and I love just tossing it into the dishwasher (in the 'lock' position, of course) when I'm done.
Only 2 negatives I have is that the beeping doesn't shut off on it's own, so if you're doing something else, you have to manually hit the stop to turn it off.
5 1/2 inches would be much better, which would cook down to about 4 inches, which looks good on a bun.
Not a problem I also purchased the 600 GSM towel set and those are perfect for my hair.
I ordered the Pyrex Easy Grab Casserole specifically to heat browned/blackened seared chicken to 165 degrees in the microwave for final cooking.
Just keep in mind that it will survive much longer if not subjected to temperature extremes .
You do have to oil bamboo cutting boards every so often to keep them from drying out ( Bamboo Oil, or butcher block oil is fine).
I got this because I saw Rachel use it on her food network show.
We were looking for an inexpensive and simple coffeemaker. None of that digital timer stuff, just an old-fashioned on-off switch.
You'd be so much better off with the smallest size Benriner from Japan like this oneBenriner Japanese Mandoline Slicerand this to protect your fingersMicroplane 34007 Kitchen Cut-Protection Glove.
These are solid pieces with rounded hooks at the end.
When I went to buy one from the Vitamix site I would have wound up paying over $19 after tax and shipping,...
They even automatically shut off when tipped over .
I ordered 2 sets of 6, which was surprisingly shipped (with my Prime membership) in ONE day instead of the FREE 2 day....
It's well-insulated , stainless steel, and the lid appeared to seal very well.
It fits perfectly in my oval roaster pan .
I can barely hear it. I think the noise level is on par with our ceiling fan , which runs all year long except in the winter.
I bought mine in white , through Amazon.
I used to use a stovetop pressure cooker but you have little control over the temperature/pressure (see below).As for the sticking issue, I find you need to be careful at the 400F ("browning") temperature not to scorch foods, esp veggies, flour-dredged meats--turn the temp down to 300 or 350F; but if you are searing uncoated meat, 400F is ideal for a good fast sear that releases from the metal.
my wife hates the smell of smoke almost as much as i do but as its a necessary "evil&#34 ; such is life.
This peeler does a great job of that (can go through a dozen Apples in 3 or 4 minutes once you find a setting that works for your most common apple size), but one complaint I have is that it tends to take a lot of the apple with the skin if you're not careful.
but if it is well insulated it will heat a whole two bedroom apartment I have moved from that drafty place I had two oil heaters and this iliving and a gas furnice for a week this was able to make a small room comfortable but in the insulated apartment it is amazing when it is not real cold out it heats the whole house with out the home heater I like the heat better than a gas heater it heats a 12 X 13 room very well next winter I plan to purchase another one and heat this whole apartment with two it is just too big for one when it gets down to the teens .
Choosing a coffee pot is important to us, we are passionate about our coffee...and whatever is going to brew it better be reliable, look good, brew a good pot, and functional.
I had a French press years ago but gave up on it because everything was trial & error --- no directions were included.
Its hold feature comes in handy when you need to get to a better light source to read the temperature.
I use this primarily for seasoning meats before going on the grill.
All glass surface, accurate and powerful power, economic to operate, and the best of all, at Amazon is less than $100.00 dollars, with free shipping, and fast!
If all you're looking for is a conversation piece, by all means buy this... but if you want to grind coffee beans, buy something else .
This vacuum handled them all with ease, made that plush look like brand new!
I've used these Funtainer bottles for years for my 2 kids and we love them .
Otherwise, I can say the following: great color, sturdy, EZ to assemble. The assembly instructions are just drawings, no verbage, but it is very basic to see how to do it - several very nice long screws, some button screw covers and the wood pieces.
I've had them for about a year and they are still good as new.
When I first opened the box with this " fryer " inside, I was a littleintimidated!
For a large person, you might want to consider the next towel size up .
I packaged this DeLonghi back up and went and replaced my Cuisinart with the identical one I have used for years.
After a brief trial, however, I agree with the reviewers who feel this bookrest is better-suited to holding Nooks, Kindles, etc .
Both of us have back problems , bed time used to be nightmare, most mattresses don't hold up as advertised.
It picked up everything on the hardwoods , and most of the stuff on the rug.
I'd gotten these spice jar labels to ID spices in a glass jar set; the idea of being able to rewrite is ideal for my purpose.
So, if you want a great glass in a large size and you don't want plastic, I completely recommend these glasses.
The number of attachments is both a blessing and a curse because with versatility comes the inability to store this machine anywhere.
Also, you can't have a default setting for brewing with one touch, you must pick size, etc. every time .
My reason for purchasing them was because of the airtight feature .
It's very quiet , has a low and high setting and a temperature dial so you can adjust it to the right temperature.
i cook a lot of indian food , and many recipes call for pureeing various spices, chilis, and other vegetables into a paste.
My wife bought this for me over a year ago and I neglected to use it for several months.
(If you watch a lot of Alton Brown like I do, you'll know how often he reaches for the kosher salt; now mine is actually convenient to reach and beautiful enough to leave out all the time!!!)
We live on a farm , so lets just say them hurling is an occurence that happens more often than not, and of course usually in the middle of the night when you least want to clean them up.
This coffee maker is great, it heats the water very well resulting in the brewed coffee @ 165-168 degrees F. It has a very good warming plate that can be adjusted to stay on from 10 to 120 min .
At $9.99 a four pack here at Amazon , they are a bargain and should last several months, at least, in the average house.
The room we had it in is still stinky !
It does not fit cleanly into a corner angle and is so light weight that a bump dislodges it.
We have a small room converted to an office , on the second story of our house.
It also put out a decent amount of heat. But it also put out a horrific plasticy type of smell.
Me not being a fan of hand-washing, I wish I could toss it in the dishwasher, but I know that would dull the blade, and then what's the point?We have now purchased three of this model for ourselves and two as gifts, as well as purchasing the Victorinox Santoku for ourselves.
The side closer to the center was darker--however, it was within my standards for eating on both sides (but barely on the darker side).
I like the fact that I don't have to look up cooking time because it's on the face of the dial.
It does warm the air around it, so I've avoided using it on hot days.
That slight angle of the handle really makes basting -- and scooping out grease from the top of a simmering homemade stock or stew , or bottom of the pan while browning something -- faster and easier.
The handle will snap off or chip so that when you try to pick up the dirty water bucket, the top falls off.
I did write an e mail to Hoover about it but have not received any answers on how to permanently fix this one little issue. It is easier to use than the older one I had but I replaced it because of the same exact reason, it would not suck the water back up.
I place the attachment part into the hose of my vacuum, and as long as I hold it, it fits.
I'm not a cook .
No longer do I get "floaties" in my herbal teas , even when the herbs are very fine.
Every kitchen needs at least one silicone baking mat.
I also bought this pillow for my hot flashes but honestly I think buying a higher thread count pillow case stays cool all night, not the pillow. In any case, no fluffing is needed and would buy another one in a heart beat.
My previous desk chair had just about no padding left in the seat (thanks a lot, Skyrim and Red Dead Redemption ) so I was excited to try out this mesh back chair.
This design has been around since the 1930's and it's still a good one.
This basket works perfectly to keep our fruit organized and keep a lot of the counter space clean .
My brother-in-law made deviled eggs for Thanksgiving and his eggs were overcooked (green around the yolks) even though he followed a recipe for boiling eggs.
The only thing keeping this from 5 stars is it would be nice to have a single hook option.
It will emulsify salad dressings like nothing else and grate or shred small quantities of cheese perfectly.
I love my Beautiful Candy Apple Red Toaster and the Price too was Excellent .
Gave it a 4-star.- quite sturdy.- does not wobble.- nice and wide.- cover is decent quality .-
The wood is very soft and twisting the ring will cause the hole to widen.
Add this item to the list of smart looking and fabulously functional simple human tools.
This cocktail muddler will look nice on a bar, with a heavy brushed-finish stainless steel handle that is tapered for comfort, and a solid nylon head with pyramidal teeth that won't scratch glass.
I have both a machine shop as well as a cafe , and I can vouch for this product being well made, for the most part.
We know exactly when the water is ready .
I needed to monitor the temperature in winter to make sure the unit is functioning properly (it wasn't - garage just gets too cold).
My brother-in-law visited and recommended these.
a KSM-150 ).
They call it a whole house filtration system, which would lead you to believe that everything you need to install is included, but it's not .
I have had a Taylor 5932 NSF oven thermometer for over 3 yrs now.
I am having some issues with sputtering and the iron leaves wet spots on my clothes while using the steam.
I purchased this air mattress and the Intex Nylon Flocked Queen air mattress.
We have these for our younger kids who don't eat enough to warrant using a full-size dinner plate (or for dessert or toast in the morning for grown ups).
If you have ice cream that is so hard that you cannot easily dish up appropriate portions with this scoop, then the ice cream is probably too hard for you to be eating it in the first place - who knows, it may even be hazardous to your health.
I purchased this as a set to use when guests visit during the winter months (contrary to belief, Central Florida dips into sub freezing a few times during the winter.)Like others have said, the colors are vivid .
I'm giving the cup 3-stars because as I've said: it's a good cup.
Now that I can make great coffee house drinks at home, this latte maker will have paid for itself within a few weeks.
The first was left out in freezing weather by a house-sitter who used it to carry water to some chickens.
After checking it over and recalling my frustration trying to figure out where the right spot to stop filling was at with a regular canning funnel, I decided it was worth buying because the store has a good return policy, plus on the label it clearly says "Satisfaction guaranteed."
For the first year or two this one worked perfectly, and I didn't at all miss having an electric opener .
I've had no discoloration like one reviewer complained of.
The first KitchenAid stand mixer I had was inherited from my mom and dad and they got it for their wedding in 1956 .
The cooking time is about the same as a microwave, and the clean up is pretty quick. I use olive oil for my popcorn.
The dirt cup is not very big.
We've been using them for a three months now
It's a great size to take to work or an outing (It holds @ 4 normal sized cups of coffee).
I grabbed the instruction booklet and realized it was all in German, which is fine by me because it has PICTURES!!!! IF you cannot follow pictures, simple directions, then you dont deserve good sushi anyway .
I use this primarily for getting lime juice for margaritas .
Bought this to compare to my roomba 560 that I have been using for 3 years.
but thats toobe expected with first time use, then i towel dryedthe extra grease and added lard....put in oven at 500degrees, expect some smoking, just have fans ready, for1 hr...turn oven off, i did this like 3-4 times...thencooked fried potatoes with onions ,worked great, friedan egg and it slid off pan...great pan, just got dutch oven too...
In response to some reviews, please have the sense to check the measurements of the baking sheets, which are stated, and the size of your oven .
It just requires adding all of the ingredients and just turn it on.
I like the design of the rack, it takes up a small amount of space in my cupboard, but the lids just ruin this item.
.margarita ice pops !!
I made 3 shakes with it last night
I was nervous about ordering this because the picture shows a small protrusion coming out of where it would attach to the mixer, and my current beater does not have any such protrusion.
To sum it up--animal fur on furniture is no longer a problem, powerful sweeper and suction- carpeted stairs are now a breeze to clean , even great suction along the edges-the reuseable filter is very durable and very easy to clean-very well designed, feels very balanced, cord storage is excellent-easily switch to hose and crevice tool, and it has great suction as well-glides effortlessly across flat surfacesThis little guy is so handy, I will sometimes get on my hands and knees and do a guick spruce up of the entire living room.
These are the real deal, U.S. made, P-51 can openers, with a small hole to easily attach to a key chain, lanyard or other carrying device.
After switching from a flimsy piece of junk like the Hamilton-Beach I used for years, it is such a pleasure to go to the real McCoy; the Oster .
Not having to ' squeeze ' any handles is great and I personally find it very easy to turn.
Also, with the lid not fitting snug, it would not keep the powder fresh while it was stored in it.
So the basic design is refreshing .
I love it so much that I bought two more for my family members.
I, too, bought this dispenser so that I could easily refill my three cats' bowls each day.
Not as good as the shorter one , coffee does not stay hot as long and for driving this would be a problem if you don't like luke warm coffee.
The water tastes strange ....so I wanted to try something to let us get great tasting water and help the environment by not buying water bottles.....
a set of cookware , I researched and decided on this set.
The cat knocked one cereal bowl off the counter about twenty minutes after I opened the box of dinnerware, and broke it in a million little pieces all over the floor.
My previous pressure cooker was a complex affair with springs and components tucked away in plastic housing so that they could not be accessed .
I bought this heater before got a bad one and I really did not give it a chance I lived in a very drafty home.
My only criticism is that in the rare circumstance when I'm holding something VERY hot (e.g. a tray fresh from a stove on 400F+ ) for 15+seconds my hands will start to get hot.
I spent a little extra to get the timer feature and it was worth it.
I will use it until it breaks , and then I will get one with a wider opening at the top.
This table is a little bigger than I expected!
This is the worst ice cream scoop ever.
According to the manual, when that 20 seconds is up, you have to wait five minutes before grinding again; otherwise, the manual warns that the motor may overheat.
The first thing we love about Green Earth Wok by Ozeri is the fact that its from nature and helps support greener living.
also, the cost of paper filters can add up, and since this is a one-time investment it's bound to save $$.for my coffee maker, it's a bit large (but i dont have a cuisinart, i have a weird brand, so this may not be common), and this means that the lid is propped up slightly, which menas that the coffee is not as hot as it usually is when it's done.
I have a drawer full of OXO kitchen tools so I definitely am impressed by OXO's product line.
This is my second 600-series mixer; Kitchenaid (to their credit) swapped out the first under warranty after it started behaving erratically .The primary use of this mixer is to make 4 loaves of bread/week.
A definite must-have, from somebody who has a KitchenAid Stand Mixer with all the good attachments, and still uses the Salad Shooter for shredding carrots and such stuff .
Good idea to empty filter if using more than 3- 4 minutes at a time.
It doesn't take up a lot of space on your kitchen counter and would look great sitting with your other kitchen appliances.
It is GREAT, I would highly recomend if you do not want the cereal boxes lying around everywhere .
Just wish a cleaning brush were still included with the price.
If these problems don't bother you, this is really a great deal for a blender.
I did have one incident and that is with the first cord .
This is our first time with a DO and have found there is a little bit of a learning curve to make sure you don't overcook items.
The Dyson is over 5 yrs old and the other hoover is over 1yr old.
With this item, we had to scoop out the water and ice before lifting it off the table.
Good capacity - 14 cups and also has a setting for a small brew; it's easy to fill and the pot does not drip (hooray!)Looks and feels like quality -- it has a sort of "retro"
The lid is snug .
Even better, the breadbox keeps our bread fresh for several days without needing to double-bag in zip-locs!Because the paper bags become a bit damp in the breadbox, I usually take the loaves out (leaving them in their individual bags) and set them on the counter to "air out" for about 15 minutes each day .
I have also used these glasses to serve mini parfaits in.
Saw this on-line, and loved the idea of being able to use bar soap without the scummy film. Soap would last longer; money would be saved; and, there would be less empty plastic liquid soap bottles in landfills.
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.
Maybe the people with problems are cooking something very sticky?I like these silicone pans a lot.
As long as your expectations are appropriate (you're paying $80 as opposed to hundreds for a dehumidifier that does real work [I mean that in a physics sense]), I think you'll be satisfied.
The towels arrived with a lot of sizing on them and really need to be washed a couple of times before they are super soft and absorbent.
PUR CR-600 2 Stage Oval Water Pitcher is excellent, efficient and cost-effective.
The first roll i made was a little loose because i didn't squeeze it tight enough but by the second roll it looked just like the rolls I get at a restaurant.
Seriously, she makes the best muffins in the known universe.
I wish it would be just a bit taller so that dresses won't hang so close to the floor (it is about 4 feet tall).
For me, normal basters with a bulb on top that can be squeezed from side to side are much easier to use.
I have found this French press very beneficial because it makes great coffee cheaper than my K-cup machine .
I chose the red because it fits in with any meal but especially great at holidays such as Christmas .
Go ahead and laugh -- but before you pour it out, clean the top of the juicer off or it will all fall into the cup .
I'm not sure what product was received by the other folks that have written reviews about this product but I do know that my Ionizer was a real DUD.First of all you need a really DEEP 12v socket in order to plug it in - take a look at the picture - see the little silver button on the side?
Had high hopes for this Vornado , but not sure if I like it.
At about 2 inches thick and made into squares to keep the materials from shifting too much its pretty nice, especially considering the cost.
And the handle is very comfortable to hold, but, when it comes to wanting to get 2/3 of a cup of water, the numbers are relatively small and thin and not that easy to read.
For this, a proper kitchen knives set is essential.
I had some concerns that the pan wouldn't release the cakes from the crevices (petals), but everything turned out perfectly!
However, after about 1.5 years of use, it now leaks out of the sides even when filled to half its capacity.
Toast is better than from any previous toaster- evenly brown, crisp and rapid .
Both have been sent back .
I hate to clean and am a procrastinator so it took several months after receiving this steamer to finally use it.
After watching a video on youtube to understand more on what to do I tried it out .
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.
First of all, this is exactly what I was looking for as far as asthetics go.
I'm very new to my Kitchenaid Mixer and it has been intimidating to use at first.
The holder is divided into 3 compartments so the utensils don't become hopelessly tangled.
I got this for my daughter , who is an avid tea drinker.
I understood that once herbs were placed in it, it needed to be frozen before use.
This is my second 600-series mixer; Kitchenaid (to their credit) swapped out the first under warranty after it started behaving erratically .The primary use of this mixer is to make 4 loaves of bread/week.
Namely Black and Decker, Panasonic, and whatever brand makes the Shark .
But so far, these pillows are great.
So I searched and found the Lasko 2551 , decided to give it a try.
I like the idea of a grinder and brewer combination coffeemaker, but I think they need more innovation because the product needs some improvement.
I bought this for my guest room and laid on it this morning for about 5 minutes, it felt okay.
This slotted spoon, like the rest of the products from the OXO Good Grips line , is a great value of superior quality, unsurpassed durability, and flawless performance.
it is easy to clean and works great .
my refrigerator .
I believe the $10 filter is made by WEB - I've been able to cut it in such a way as to get 3 pre-filters out of each.
During the coldest months of the year, energy usage in my home decreased considerably by simply setting the dial to the energy saver symbol .
My sandwich was perfect and delicious. My Biscuits were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
I would call it medium firm as it seems to have the traditional memory foam which is not very soft like the newer open cell memory foam .
it's terrific in design!
Bissell is the only company that makes these, which makes me wonder why Eureka, Hoover, and other good companies don't have something even close to offer in the spot cleaning robot machine category.
I don't like " upgrading " something I already have if it isn't worth it.
Tassimo is the middle of the road. Better machine than Dolce Gusto/Keurig but cappuccino is not as good/creamy.
As for footprint, it's only slightly larger than the block that's made for a Miracle-Knife-III knife set.
so it's pretty indestructible (I've dropped it a couple of times and it barely dented ).
Because over 100 people had confirmed ( 75 showed up) and it takes about 30 sec.
However, one genuine complaint is that one of these slipped out of my hand less than five feet onto a relatively soft flooring ( wood )
So, after many a sleepless cough-filled night, I decided to buy this mattress protector along with a pillowcover for our daughter's bed.
I have a decent number of Umbra products, so I already knew these weren't some solid metal bird holders.
My young daughter quickly figured out how to work the pour-button spout on the handle, so you may want to make sure that it's up high enough on counters or in the fridge so that little hands can't reach it .
The foaming mechanism is clever but could be improved to avoid the "leaking" that sometimes occurs, but overall we would buy this one again over any of the others for the price range.
After adding syrup to the milk, and using the frother, I chugged down the glass like there was no tomorrow.
The battery itself charges in I think about 3 hours and there is an indicator on the base that flashes when its ready for use.
I love this pie cutter and use it all the time.
Ordered 3 days ago, got the idiotic replica which for some reason has no slant whatsoever (one would think even the people making the knockoffs would recognize the overall purpose of the thing.) It's also itty bitty , maybe holding a hotel bar comfortably, but no way a bath bar.
We bought 2 clothes racks for $20 each at the conglomerate department store that starts with a "W", yes, that one.
Have you tried using a ricer for mashed potatoes?
Folded in half, it provides a reasonable layer of protection from the tile and has held up ok after about 2 months of washing. My review of this item is very heavily based on the price I paid for it.
They did scare my daughter when she came over to use them as she has dull knives at her house and was expecting how sharp these were.
I wrote the company to find out if the plastic used in this is BPA -free (friend of mine is obsessed with this) and was assured that it is free of BPA... this is a good quality product that I've used every day for 3 weeks.
Unlike most glass items, there was no foam to hold delicate glass in place against the harder wood....only very think cardboard like you would find on the back of a cheap notepad.
It's also nice for Stella Artois (a lager), local crafted ales and Pils (Pilsner) if you can find a good one.
To remedy this problem you need to dilute the soap with some water to get it thinner.
Brush with melted butter or spritz with non-stick spray for the first use, and it won't be necessary after that.
The easiest solution to the pump problem is to not take the water chamber off of the base and just refill it with a pitcher as needed.
I give it a four because I think the manf should put an on//off switch on it.
I dust it off & use it each summer to dry the fruits & veggies from the garden.
even if you never put it in the dishwasher , which is always a big no-no with coated cookware like this).
i use a camp chef stove and recently purchased their pizza oven.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs to juice limes or lemons regularly.
It gets the job done, for basic microwaving tasks .
I was interested in electrics , but never wanted to pay the price to try one.
Long cord, easy to fill with water, steam in 30-seconds , two levels of steam, even distribution of steam, light weight, no hand pumping, swivel head for tight spots, pad attaches easily.
This OXO double jigger fits the bill perfectly!Each side has three very clearly marked increments for very precise measurements .
a sleek simple design .
Well constructed with mostly stainless steel and easy/fast to dismantle and reassemble4.
so I bought this as a Christmas present.
The Zojurishi comes in handy to not only cook rice for large groups, but also to keep rice warm and ready for consuming for around two days .
It's very sharp , at the trip to the ER confirmed when I cut open a finger by accident and barely felt it.
I purchased the rose colored one which has a soft, iridescent, pearly rose tint to it and I've gotten several compliments on it, but I don't think the presentation alone is worth $26.99.
I use this with a double recipe of gluten free bread to make six small loaves of bread which I stick in the fridge until eaten.
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.
It's just too expensive , and not warm enough for the size.
It looks real sharp, DOES NOT LEAK one drop, and it keeps my coffee REAL hot for many, many hours.
I like this one because the mesh at the bottom forms such a good seal that very little of the grinds make their way past it.
It needs a way for water to enter and drain frim the front and sides .
I never heard of the company Spiegelau , but I really like the glasses.
Made in Portugal, it is a 60% cotton/ 40% acrylic blend that is incredibly warm and soft for both its size and thickness.
The pot's outside is entirely enameled and the bottom is flat , so it could be used on a ceramic stove top without risk of scratches.
Gosh, I really like the OXO Good Grips Over the Door Stainless Steel Rack...
Since they're clear , it's easy to see what you want right away.
Here we are, 2 months later, trying desperately to make it last because, once again, everything is sticking and you better not even put eggs in it.
Now, I have only tile,and low pile carpet.
Update: 08/02/13I received my replacement on 07/22/13 and the replacement stopped working 6 days later!
We have bought almost the entire line of USA pans including the deep dish pizza pans and we have not been disappointed!
The Siwvel Sweeper G2 is a handy little dvice to have around - it's great at picking up crumbs, dog food, broken glass and dust - the ony thing I would say is that I have a large dog and I have to keep cleaning the brushes because the hair winds around the brushes - but for quick pick ups it's fantastic.
The bagel setting and " A Little More " are settings that should have been on toasters years ago.
Still love the homemade ice cream, but do have to admit you get best results if you use it often enough to remember what works well.
I do not have the great Emeril's signature on my version; I bought mine in Canada but it is the same machine.
It is awesome because its an energy star I am sure I will save on my electric bill , the old one sucked up the power .
I always make huge pots of stew and soups , and having to put the covers upside down on the stove or countertop or in the sink was always a pain and messy.
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.
Not only is it the SAFEST opener I've ever used but fast, clean and quieter .
For the price, the product is just fine. It's not very thick - definitely a summer weight if you're looking for warmth, but again, for $6 I don't expect a delux blanket.
The big ones don't work well for small jobs and the mini-preps are almost useless.
The other aspect of the item I didn't care for was the width - it seems just a bit too wide for the proportions of depth.
It's got its own brain so if yours isn't working quite right it will keep you on track, does not heat up your kitchen , is stainless steel
I bought the Bodum Chambord 4 c. for my office and the Frieling 17 oz.
The bagless canister is easy to empty .
I have an "old fashioned" stove with electric burners versus the new-fangled smooth top ranges.
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.
I bought this for a corner in the lunchroom for a computer the employees could use on break.
Rubber feet keep the machine firmly in place when grinding, and the noise is not unusually loud for a burr grinder.
I did purchase a silicon coated flipper/turner as I did not want to use metal implements on this.
There are plenty of loose tea infusers, plain old stainless steel balls that hang off the side of your cup.
Clean up is a breeze and the water comes to a boil in record time.
Son was very afraid of the pump as it sounds like a vacuum cleaner...Easy quick assembly- threw on the cover (a really soft and plush fleece cover, with straps that go all the way around for comfort and safety-and a really cheerful and cute pattern-definitely gender neutral)
The only con I can see is that it may be a bit heavy to handle for someone who is delicate. As another reviewer said, I would hate to drop it on my foot!
If you don't need the cup holder, then get the keg shaped version in the same 34 oz size.
I had read every review on all Mattress Toppers in the $25-$50 price range which Amazon carries (for full size mattresses) before ordering the Carpenter 5-Zone.
Note: It takes a little more than an hour to cook brown rice in this thing.
The Gourmet knifes are made of stamped steel not forged from a single blank of high carbon steel.
Hmmm, it makes me wonder if these Rachel Ray lids are very good after all.
The extra wide slots make toasting any size bread very easy as does the basket that adjusts as the bread lowers in to be toasted.
I have owned my Dyson DC15 Animal for many years now and it still works perfectly.
Directions could have been better (especially diagrams )
I cook large meals for just myself and these are the perfect size to make freezer meals I can take out to heat in the microwave for dinner.
I only have a blade grinder, so my ground aren't uniformly course...
Got these 18 months ago for a kitchen remodel , loved the look and price.
As soon as the frother arrived, I opened it up, pulled the tab to connect the batteries, washed as instructed, and made some cold chocolate milk .
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.
This makes firm, lasting foam that is great for latte, cappuccino and hot chocolate.
It doesn't spin that well .3.
I use this with a double recipe of gluten free bread to make six small loaves of bread which I stick in the fridge until eaten.
If you compare to most other pillows on the market, you'll be very happy.
King Size SafeRest Premium Hypoallergenic Waterproof Mattress Protector - Vinyl Free does what it should.
These have been durable and have kept their non stick well.
I have to stir it all the time even on low.
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
I had gotten this because I wanted to have water for tea and hot chocolate available without using a microwave.
The writing on it is fairly small , so bring your glasses!Measuring- this thermometer seems to take forever!!
This little cooker is awesome.
The "fits up to 10,000 BTUs" is a false statement, there's no way this will fit my 5,000 BTU AC , it's too big, period.
there is enough room for the standard size store bought egg.
It does sit a little higher than your average bed, but since we're using it without a box spring it is the perfect hight.
And I like how it's easy to clean and made of durable tempered glass that can hold up to 11 pounds .
The tea ball itslf comes apart at the middle.
They list as being effective from -40F to +560F and reusable 3000 times , so you can use them in the freezer, to bake roasts on, cookies...about everything.
I use this with a double recipe of gluten free bread to make six small loaves of bread which I stick in the fridge until eaten.
Between my wife and I it took nearly 2 hours .
There are four of them, all heavy stainless steel .
It took up about 3 trays .
This one only goes up to a 10 ounce size whereas mine goes up to a 14 ounce.
These bags are a decent price and very handy to have stashed in your purse, messenger bag, briefcase or glove compartment .
I drink coffee every morning and usually I make it for the week (I am not a connoisseur) and refrigerate it .
You just freeze the chillsner, take it out of the freezer, pop it in the beer (press it in firmly) and you can drink beer right through the chillsner as the beer flows out the top of it .
I keep worrying I'm going to slice myself with the blade .
I dont find it to be difficult at all and in fact it requires less effort than cleaning my stainless steel pans .
I am the unfortunate owner of a Kitchenaid 11 cup processor (I rated the Cuisinart 5 stars, but I really do not know).
I have a small, narrow knife holder that holds any size knives, and all I have in it now are these three knives.
Look, to tone down those who say that the bag is not HEPA, 'reality check' nowhere on the bag does it say HEPA.
What I like about the Wearever set is the bright color and the white inside makes it easy to tell the 'doneness' of the food being cooked.
Need chopped onions or celery? Maybe 10 seconds !
This item shouldn't be put in the dishwasher .
we live in an apartment with limited counter space and we've recently started eating healthier .
Also, it indicates on the product packaging that the item is machine-washable , so if it's important to you to get rid of any noticeable odor before you use it, throw it in the washing machine.
I love the velcro loop at the top that I can use to hang it on the bar under the shelf in my closet.
I have not owned a juicer in quite a few years. So it was quite a treat to try out this one.
Gave it a 4-star.- quite sturdy.- does not wobble.- nice and wide.- cover is decent quality.- catch holds the legs firmly.- height is fully adjustable in reasonable increments .A lot of the nitpicking is just that, but it's not (to my thinking) an $80 ironing board.
Air like water is nearly impossible to keep out of anything that it surrounds so if your looking for "space saving" get a box of Contractor's Heavy Duty Trash Bags and fold your items placing them into the bag, gather the bag around the vacuum cleaner hose, when the air is removed tie a knot in the bag.
I'd ordered Pike Street towels from Amazon previously and been very pleased by how soft, absorbent, and full they were.
It's made of extremely heavy cast iron, comes pre-seasoned from the factory , and is a dream to use on my electric range.
Take a push pin or thumb tack and poke a hole in your lid.
After spending what seemed like a ridiculous amount of time and being doused with red juice while pitting cherries to make a cherry sauce (for pork tenderloin..yummy combo, if you've never tried it), I was seeking the perfect cherry pitting device .
I finally threw away the bunch of ugly hangers we kept around - good riddance.
My only complaint is that you have to constantly refill it .
This version has some design improvements, including a larger opening to refill the soap chamber, a rubber dispensing "tip" and the elimination of a lower front foot that used to get soap scum/residue and water spots.
All in all, this pan is a workhorse, it doesn't hold odors and it's one of the best kitchen pans I've ever purchased.
AeroPress makes a wonderful coffee and is also really good for traveling.
We unwrapped it and watched it grow .
It doesn't use ANY glue or screws to hold, just friction.
Not sure why another reviewer is having problems, but we aren't at all(maybe they should use good quality espresso).
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.
My husband travels periodically to places that manufacture rubber products , and the odor of the new product is par for the course.
These are short and hard to knock over .
Last, it's quite a bit red der than it appears in the picture.
I loved my old shark pocket mop , until it got wore out and died... :(
It also comes with a handy sleeve that contains a guide to how hot meat should be cooked.
Could see $50 - 60 .However, certainly better than the cheapos from big box stores.
We needed this to smooth out the table skirts of our retail booth at craft shows and festivals.
I bought 3 of these for my adult children .
I bought this for a corner in the lunchroom for a computer the employees could use on break.
Now that I have used this, I wonder why I never bought one of these before...they make so much sense!I like to bake healthy muffins mad it always takes so long for them to cool.
And the quality of this product is superb !
There are enough larger ones for my family of 5 and I use the tiny ones all the time for storing things like cinnamon-sugar, peanut butter for lunches, leftover toppings for meals like Hawaiian haystacks , etc etc.
The steam can be a bit of a surprise when you get a little careless.
It's a 5 ply, and the bottom is HEAVY .
I've cut myself very bad once ...Don't use it without the protector.
USA pans are the best, in my opinion.
I actually own the Oster 6646
so I think if I was staging a home to sell, I would display the Circulon but when it comes to ease of use with the tastiest tea, I would always use and recommend glass tea pot.
ONce the insulating material starts to crack the probe reading becomes variant and intermittant if at all .
I would highly recommend.
so I had to unscrew and re-assemble it several times .
Buy this product and make your All-Clad pans look like new !
Great flexibility, great gripping ability, and fantastic insulation quality.
We're picky so we typically bring along our own ground organic coffee when we're traveling.
It is pretty easy to clean and I only clean mine every two months when I change the filter.
I recently bought a plastic set of measuring cups and after taking them out of the dishwasher found that the marked measurements had washed off!
I bought the 12.5 inch and using my gas grill and flax seed oil , put a non stick surface on the skillet that was the color of light carbon and tough.
*cleans EASILY*stands up out of the way on the counter behind my coffeemaker (or sits)*sharp as ever (11/07)*holder holds it all together very compactly & is easy storage/quick, even the holder hooks on to the storage container.*does not discolor with tomatoes, etc*mandolin itself locks into the holder so prevents prying little hands from taking out SHARP bladed portion, but is easy for the adult who knows where the lock is in back*templates for different cuts slip in effortlessly*the holder is nearly as slim as the mandolin it carries, with all the templates
I just use BarKeepers Friend and it restores the finish.
so I can't attest to its longevity, although all the other Presto products I have keep doing what they're supposed to without any breakdowns
That is the most relavant issue and this pan excels with vigor .
I just got this today (a day earlier than expected Thanks Amazon Prime).
a reasonable size so I don't overeat ! ...
This is an amazing product - When I ordered it I was concerned that because if was queen/king it would be stretched to the hilt to fit around my king-sized bed - but not the case - Plenty of room to spare - and it was long enough for my extra-deep mattress.
Pros:-- can cook a variety of rice and other grains (even more than its predecessors)-- extremely reliable results-- can keep rice warm for extended periods of time-- very easy to useCons:-- as with other models, the instruction book leaves a little to be desired-- very loud, annoying sounds when the rice is done.
The only problem I have had is hair ; it tends to roll over hair instead of picking it up.
The only reason for giving 4 stars instead of five is because I thought the board had such a hard surface, based on the description and after seeing the product for the first time, that it would not allow any etchmarks to get embedded in it but then found out that it does allow scoring in order to protect the knives so, while that's good, I still wanted it to stay pretty for longer!
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
Last night I dropped one of these on the floor while I was in a standing position and it did not shatter or even crack .
I really believe if you are looking for a cocktail shaker, then this will be the perfect fit for your mixology need.
I'm happy to have it thaw, reheat, warm up, and brew .
but I use it for holding things like cans of Tuna, small jars of preserves , toothpicks and etc
About the same time this was a lightning deal , I also bought (on sale) a dense-foam comfort mat on sale at a big-box building store.

I bought this product to carry hot water to warm my baby's bottle while I'm out since portable bottle warmer options are pretty sad.

I just followed others advice since this is going on hard wood and added some felt furniture/floor savers (no noise from the footings - though it may allow the frame to slide on the wood floor more than I'd like now - if that's the case I'll replace them with small rubber footings)
They do come with a plastic ring that you can use to keep the cups together
The pack stays frozen for a few hours ; I left it on the coffee table for a few hours and when I came back it was still mostly solid and still cold...

A manual, pioneer-style grinder, an inexpensive Braun burr grinder, a very expensive Rancilio Rocky doserless grinder, and this - The Bodum Bistro (mine is orange ).My

The Dyson sucks from the power head when the handle is tilted (assuming the hose underneath hasn't come undone) and from the wand when locked upright which is superior when it works.

The only beef I had wasn't really with the glass but the sticker that is put on the bottom of the glass , whew, they took a razor and goo be gone to get rid of the sticker and the glue residue.

I highly recommend it and only wish I had purchased one years ago!
I have regularly used a French press to prepare coffee for many years, and this pot is the best of the lot.
The problem is that my door can't fully shut because it sticks out so far .
At least nutritionally, it has nearly all microwavable kettle morns beat by a mile because it's straight ingredients, no trans fat , which the USDA has now deemed to be unsafe in any amount (of course, sugar is gaining on its heals with a similar legacy).
In our apartment we have very high 12-14' ceilings and there are racks all the way up there.

I purchased this vacuum based on the positive reviews here on Amazon .
This is our first Belgian waffle maker and are so glad we chose it over a classic style machine because of the deeper impressions.
The automatic lid works as promised (although I'm not sure if the manufacturer's representation about how long this product will last based on how many times the automatic lid will open on average in a given day makes a whole lot of sense; on average, my trash can's lid opens and closes dozens of times a day).The body of the can feels a bit thin, so throwing in a heavy item right after changing the bag may eventually cause dents in the can.
I usually cook for an army of one and these are perfect.
You can see when the canister gets full.
I agree with several of the other complaints (poor suction, blows dust, cord doesn't stay wrapped even if you use the cord clip )

I've decided to keep glass mayo jar lids as an alternative.
Please be aware, these sheets are heavy (due to the high thread count I believe).

Like another reviewer, I liked this tool jar, but found it was not the color pictured; in particular, it did not match the gold Sorrento canisters and spoon rest that I ordered.

But I only make a cup at a time so that is okay
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.

It really detracts from the sleek look of the kettle, and there's no spot in my kitchen where it doesn't look bad .

I purchased this Queen Size Platform Bed over a year ago and have taken it apart 3 times due to moving.
It produces VERY thin slices (not for slicing cucumbers) but makes amazing onion slices in moments (very thin and uniform great for sandwiches)I find when grating lots of cheese I have to empty the hopper as it will quickly fill and the cheese (especially softer cheeses like Colby) will clump.

The massive blade will slowly disappear as you sharpen it daily , but that's ok, just buy a new one when it's gone!
This product is also light and does not take up a lot of space .

The Miele Capricorn with the 236 power-nozzle is the best way to win the never ending battle of cleaning pet hair.
But they are much more quieter than our AC system .Update:I have 3 of this units .

Now the C&B bowl will stay home and when I need to hit the next school or community event , the PPB (a.k.a. plastic punch bowl) will be toted along.

Yes, it takes A LOT of coffee (I use 22 tablespoons for each batch I make) but coffee that emerges tastes rich and strong, just how I prefer it.
I will always have my Hamilton Brew Station for my morning coffee but I use my Keurig at all times of the day for either decaf coffee, hot chocolate, cappuccino, and my favorites, Cafe Express Mocha and Vanilla coffees.
This is just another one of those products that when it's demonstrated by a slick host who has multiple takes to make itlook can appear to be a good product .
I got two of these: one is 6,00 BTU, another is 8,00 BTU.Both models have the same design flows .1.
Aug 2012 update:We move across the country with this on our mattress.
We have four of these stuck directly to the shower glass and they hold wet towels easily and rarely fall off.
I think these scissors are OK for the price( $20 July 2013).
They feel good in your hand I a imagine they won't get dropped as often as others because of the indentations .
I purchased this pan at Macy's, and love it so much that I have put a second one on my Amazon Wish List (about $3 less than Macy's).The non-stick surface works like a charm - with just a little bit of greasing ahead of time, nothing sticks.
This Kitchen Gurus scale is easy to read with its high contrast LCD display.
They look stylish and are dishwasher safe.
When I travel for a month I take it with me, as it is lightweight and small, and a cup of coffee per day at a cafe is $4 euros and more, and that can add up over a month.
They're good quality, but you have to treat them carefully if you want them to last.
This loaf pan works precisely as advertised and produced twelve perfect sourdough rolls shaped like a tiny loaf of bread.
I mixed some seasonings and then coated it inside & out, & cooked the 5 lb. bird for 30 min .
;-) Ours is near a high-traffic area in the kitchen but is tucked back enough so it doesn't over-react to passing bodies.
I purchased this set about 5 years ago and have used it over those 5 years pretty frequently.
I looked on Amazon and found that EatSmart scales had awesome ratings.
It's smaller than eggspected but I still love it.
This one is great. The metal seems very sturdy. Its attractive and it has 6 separate sections to put stuff in.
In pursuing action on my warranty I find I will be without a frame for the bed for over two weeks at least.
I shop on Amazon faithfully and I am very disappointed .
I really like silicone molds .
From the picture on the web, thought the color was a soft pink/peach but it's actually khaki .
As it happens, I had the older version of this cup in my kitchen cabinet (see photo), and while I didn't have quite the strong negative reaction those early reviewers had, the deficiencies of having a handle a 3 year old could curl out of shape were pretty obvious.
I would have known to wipe it clean with a wash cloth .
However, this machine is amazing .
Well made ( China made- at the time not a popular choice).
The surface is so hard it barely gets scratched in it so it always feels like it comes really clean when washing it, unlike all my others that feel rough and get things stuck in the grooves.
While it is plastic and lightweight, it appears to be quite durable.
As with all microwave bacon cookers, the fat does pop and splatter through the microwave , but you have to leave it uncovered for maximum crispness.
Bought this for my wife as a Christmas present , decided to spend the extra money (cause my sweetie is worth more than just a snuggie) and I'm really glad I did.
It's sturdy, attractive, easy to use and to clean and according to her mother who also owns Simply Calphalon , she will be using it forever.
This little doo-hickey converted us from a Tassimo T-Disc enjoying household, to a Tassimo T-Disc loving household!
An obnoxious buzzer sounds when eggs are done.
My only complaint, if you can call it that, is that there is no recipe booklet .
My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior , providing both utility and comfort.
I just bought one on clearance at the local grocery .
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.
I ran some warm tap water over the mold for about 5-10 seconds and the ice pop slid right out.
Put index finger against front and thumb under door handle and door opens easily without dragging it across cabinet.
I purchased this pan at Macy's , and love it so much that I have put a second one on my Amazon Wish List (about $3 less than Macy's).The non-stick surface works like a charm - with just a little bit of greasing ahead of time, nothing sticks.
That is the reason for 1 star.
in comparison to her tempur-pedic mattress she said that when my dad was on the bed she felt a weight shift and her side of the bed tighten, where as in her bed having someone lay next to her did not affect stiffness of her side of the bed.for roughly $180 for a full sixzed bed, i cant complain especially since its for my guest room.
This one seems to have a better sealing mechanism and is really sturdy.
Bought this for my 21 month old and actually to make it easier for myself as I now have all his snacks in one place while we are on the run
PROS: I pack my lunch everyday to office.
Out of a 6 lb. bag I managed to get 5 - 8 oz bottles of juice to can up for use in jelly later.
I deduct one overall star because it's a needless product for reasons mentioned above, but let it keep five stars because, like all OXO products, it's solidly built and works as advertises.
I have not owned a juicer in quite a few years .
The removable water chamber is not just a gimmick but helps in refilling the iron.
And dry cat or dog food, beans or dry cereal spilled on the floor.
It rotates freely and I can actually see what I'm doing when testing for inner temperature.
I have purchased and returned 3 coffee makers in the last 4 months before buying this one.
The magnets in the handle are strong enough to keep them together when in a drawer but weak enough that you won't pinch your finger.
All the coffee snob websites (yes, I'm a coffee snob) say that burr grinding is the way to go because blade grinders heat the beans while grinding and this affects the taste.
The bamboo utensils are super cute, and I liked the fabric wrap thing it came with as well, it's a nice touch and works well to keep the utensils from rolling around in your luggage.
It mills the 500g for my bread in less than 20 seconds .
I'm comparing it to the ikea silicone trays, and ikea's are more sturdy.
Good quality baking glassware used to be made from borosilicate, a laboratory-quality glass .
As noted throughout so many reviews, the plastic units tend to break and you're left with a piece of expensive trash.
I made scrambled eggs and they did NOT stick.
We have been using it regularly for several months and the non-stick surface shows no signs of wear.
It is large enough to hold two bakery loaves and, if the loaves aren't too big, some pastries in addition.
Purchased this to replace the sensor soap dispenser that I'd loved and used for many years until it up and died.
This has to be the worst designed vacuum I've ever purchased !
The surface is so hard it barely gets scratched in it so it always feels like it comes really clean when washing it, unlike all my others that feel rough and get things stuck in the grooves.
It was also remarkably easy to slip it onto my queen size 95lb foam mattress.
as the larger mats mean I got a slightly better deal than already outstanding price advertized, however, as a result I had to purchase larger "commercial" sized jelly roll pans (difficult to find 18 x 13 cookie sheets) .I'd recommend these to anyone who's sick of tracking down parchment paper, or wants a great buy on a great nonstick baking mat.
an air purifier that is at least moderately quiet.
I grabbed the instruction booklet and realized it was all in German , which is fine by me because it has PICTURES!!!!IF you cannot follow pictures, simple directions, then you dont deserve good sushi anyway.
We decided to keep it since we occasionally have guests over but for the 1-2 cups that we brew on a daily basis , this is way too big.
I have one CorningWare pot and lid that I've put to 20 years of heavy use , and it shows no signs of its significant age.
I love how all the items store neatly together,The top turns into a "catch basin" for the grader or slicer.
The coating inside looks like a plastic, and I haven't wanted to risk melting .
This timer costs less than any timer I have previously bought but you get a lot of bang for your buck!
For those that have "Made In China ," Francois et Mimi tests their products.
The weld that holds the center support to the frame was done poorly on that have, but was better, much sturdier, and not broken on the other half.
Not a HORRIBLE big deal, as you can create a sort of nesting system with the various sizes, but it would be more convenient to be able to nest same sized containers together.
I have tossed them full into backpacks before a long hike - had them bouncing around the floor of my boat in rough seas - even had them sneakily carried off by my toddler who thought she was getting the hot chocolate inside.
I prefer this over my AC now...Definitely cuts down your electicity bill.
I seared a pot roast, removed it ,deglazed with wine,softened some onions and garlic put it back in with some mushroom soup and put the lid on.
I have this and Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier . Both very convenient to use in bedrooms .
All my life I have admired the patterned dinnerware passed down through my family, and when I got married I was glad to be able to finally choose my own.
It fills a need and does it effectively -- some place bedside to pile my junk.
Bottom line, I have only used it once , and I can't bring myself to try again.
Each cube is 1 oz , so it's easy to know how much food my baby is consuming.
I was only buying two gallons of bottled water per week , but this has already paid for itself in less than a year.
This is my second Hoover , and like the first, this one has excellent suction.
Wow .... this oven is just what I wanted.
Oster is a great brand -- we own can openers and blenders by Oster -- and they certainly have done their work here.
Still rating 5 stars since this is not a problem with the screen!)
Sure you can get cheaper plastic utensils that will still flip a burger or scoop up a ladle of soup, but when you want quality and want your things to look as good as they perform, these are worth the extra couple bucks .
This brewer includes the filter system and the reusable My K-Cup that must be purchased with the other systems.
For a butterfly theme party, it gives you a good variety of butterflies (although a couple are more moth shaped than butterfly shaped).
For the price it is good.
The first and major problem I have had with it is leaky water during steaming - when the iron had fully heated.
Basically this glaze does absorb so don't clean it with anything you wouldn't want to later eat.
We tried using a safety pin to remove some of the plasticky blue coating they'd painted the threads with (WHY?) and still couldn't make much progress.
I put the paper in the bottom, and added the hamburg , Then I pressed the meat, and after removing the rolled meat just rolled the paper around the rest of the meat, and put them in the freezer on a tray.
Considering you spend a third of your life in bed, it's hard to justify not spending $100 or so to vastly improve your quality of life.
She was making me some potatoes in the over and had one of these liners on the baking sheet.
Bottom line, the Black & Decker Pivot Vac is probably better for the shop than the home.
I bought this hand-held vac because of the good reviews (should have read the one-star's) and I just sold it in a garage sale.
It does not sweat, it does not leak, it is easy to clean, the opening is wide enough to add ice and it sure keeps liquids icy cold for a very long time.
I might suggest that in conjunction with this attachment for the pet that you look into the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Handheld Vacuum, Corded, 33A1 for the furniture as the Dyson groom is too stiff for upholstery.
Overall I usually really like OXO products, so I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt that maybe this rack fits the doors on newer homes better.
Thankfully, I also used my label printer to put adhesive labels on the lid of each box to indicate their contents.
I have always been happy with Wilton's products and this is standing right up there to what I have expected.
so I went out to buy a battery powered fan, something grab n' go.
I got this because it was a convenient size for the refrigerator for my ground flax seed .
I thought I had it fixed by pushing it in a little, but last night came home to water all over the counter and floor after setting it out for several hours to be ready to turn on when we got home.
I like to brew my own tea and coffee while traveling and this strainer fits the need perfectly.
The front and sides are beveled to slip under the food easily.
I highly recommend this vac for someone who needs a small, corded vac that's powerful and an easy clean.
The stainless steel cups (7) fit perfectly in the larger container, and the lid fits tightly even with the spoons (7) in the individual cups.
There are four of them, all heavy stainless steel.
It does a little better if you set the cooktop to "warm" instead of leaving it on regular cooking/boiling modes, but then it'll only give you about ten seconds of having the pot off the surface before it beeps at you to demand you put it back down.
I bought this oven 7 years ago at Macy's not knowing how it will perform and it just died on me this weekend.
I never thought I'd love a bread pan so much.
This is just your basic, cheap, hecho in China colander .
Ours is brushed nickel and it matches perfectly with the other brushed nickel pieces in the bathroom.
Obviously if you attach them they are more secure , but they work fine for painting and finishing if you just put them under the work on a counter top.
I did use it to melt butter and later to simmer giblets and finally to make gravy -- and it was superb in all cases.
I saw a pizelle maker in Crate and Barrell and the associate convinced me how delicious they were, and that they were an italian tradition.
I added some honey and vanilla and my 3 year old son and I played around with various colors and it was yummy! Drinkable yogurt is annoyingly expensive and my son usually doesn't like the taste.
All the wooden dowels have a smooth, painted white coating that is easy to wipe clean.
I set the dial to about 3/4 the way, and a full gallon of water lasted 3 nights. I have been using high purity water to prevent mineral build up and hopefully this little guy will last me a long time.
It is an Oxo product and they are always high quality and durable.
I was also having a problem with my # 4 filters when making 8 cups in my Gevalia, made by Cuisinart, 12 cup machine.
We eat mainly excellent grass fed beef and this device makes it even better.
This is way more than I ever anticipated typing about a napkin holder. I deduct one overall star because it's a needless product for reasons mentioned above, but let it keep five stars because, like all OXO products, it's solidly built and works as advertises.
The blade does not get gooky with dried food and require cleaning 4.
These Tortilla Bowl Makers are a Great and Healthier alternative to Frying Tortillas by Baking them in the Oven, I use Whole Wheat Tortillas and they look Terrific, sometimes I brushed them with Different Flavored Oils for a Better Tasting and Crispy Tortilla.
The T-Fal ActiFry performed exactly as advertised, to my surprise.
I don't think they'd fall apart or anything like that, but they really don't stand out in any way. I'd get them if you feel the price is good for 6 fairly good-sized dish towels, but not because you expect them to be something special.
A 10-inch pan is much more practical, especially if you've got things on the other burners.
I've ordered two separate shipments of two boxes each, and all have arrived in perfect, unbroken condition .
The brush is very well made with a stainless steel handle.that is comfortable to hold and use.
It is of good heft (not flimsy) and makes it extremely easy to knead dough or roll out pizza or pie dough to an exact size.
I bought this oven 7 years ago at Macy's not knowing how it will perform and it just died on me this weekend.
It comes with screws and anchors , and I have to say I never mess with anchors and never have an issue - point being that I screwed this into the wall without the anchors.
If you want a water-tight seal, use a regular two-piece canning lid because these leak like a sieve; if the two-piece feature really bugs you, hot-glue the flat to the ring.
It is a one-person job , no problem.
I purchased 4 of these to align side by side and two on top.
while this may be good for tuna in decreasing the amount of mayo, it's a problem with fruits and other canned goods.
This slotted spoon, like the rest of the products from the OXO Good Grips line, is a great value of superior quality, unsurpassed durability, and flawless performance.
After careful consideration and reading other reviews, I picked this one almost 3 years ago... and I'm so glad I did!
I have Curculon skillets that I use on a daily basis so I was thrilled to receive this.
I had never eaten soft boiled eggs , and on whim purchased this unit after reading other positive reviews.
Also, there is a label attached to the bottom with a glue that doesn't come off with normal washing.
This will save you a lot of money in the long run as well only having to buy the kernels, microwave popcorn bags can add up.
I filed a claim with Amazon and got my money back.
I was also worried that this new design would not work with my preferred soap -- Bath & Body Works "kitchen lemon" -- but
I wouldn't recommend it if you have a tension rod, since you'll be putting bottles of fluids in it.
If you take it out immediately the white is runny.
There is very little clearance for anything but the smallest espresso cups (don;t think of trying to fit a normal mug or cup).You would also since they only thing that can fit under it is an espresso cup that the unit would dispense the right amount automatically.
First of all, unlike my "red" ones, this is a nice light blue - and best of all it fits my cookie sheet perfectly!This mentions several "other" ways to use a silicone liner, but as a "canner," I want to mention an area that this comes in particularly handy.
If I don't use something, it ends up gone ... but a microplane grater will NEVER be absent from my kitchen again.
One thing I wish it had now was an on/off switch.
You can go from stove to oventop .
I replaced the chord and it works well again.
There is a gap, up to about a quarter of inch .
For me, the only little problem is sometimes trying to get the top on after filling it with beans - it's hard to tell where to set the top exactly and how to get it to twist so the arrows are aligned, so sometimes I have fiddled with it awhile before it clicks.
This pillow broke down and turned into a misshapen lump within 2 weeks .
We like this design much more than the plastic NuWave we had whose hood we had to replace after it cracked a year or so after we bought it.
Even so, with the added 60-day satisfaction guarantee and 3-year warranty from the remanufacturing company ("BuyHappier"), I don't think I will be unhappy at all.
First bought a Dansk one from crate and barrel, but the pepper compartment was tiny, so returned that.
I like the strap handle .
I ordered one of these covered casseroles to use as a salt crock .
For me, easiyo is especially in winter , when I don't have the help of the warmer weather, easier, AND I enjoy the milder less tart taste of the NZ milk as well.
Just the right size, fairly thick plastic , and although there was a rubber smell for 1 or 2 days the odor went away.
The Dish is 12-3/8 inches x 8 inches .
I love the fact that this scale goes up to 11 pounds and still small enough to leave on the counter.
I do suppose it's true that it's not an airtight seal, but we've gone through its' capacity ( 1/2 stick ) in no more than 2 meals, so it's not really an issue for us.
I was glad I read the reviews before purchasing because several of them had tips for assembling the racks if you were doing it alone (it would work better with two people.)
Plus is it just more hygienic .
Can't find these in the stores any more; thank goodness for amazon.com where I can buy everything with the touch of a button and no waiting in line.
So far, this is my favorite of every iron I've ever had, and I've been ironing for more than half-a-century .
It is heavy duty but not heavy (an advantage of aluminum ).
The blade does not get gooky with dried food and require cleaning4.
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!
Was trying to justify spending a lot of money for a set of All Clad cookware .
I do use white pepper often, but only as powder .
Well, I just finished the first pass of my home with this new Bissell .
Glass tops ensure you can see if your water is boiling.
I've has this toaster for about 5 months now.
When you first see the price tag on this portable A/C unit, you might suffer a bit of sticker shock , but let me tell you right out - it is worth every penny.
it will probably rip , as it is also quite thin.
So You have to refill every day.- Steam only goes up straight , the angled attachment seems not working great.
If this tray cost $6 or $8 I would be happy, but not at $27.50, this is for collectors only.
Prefilter had 1/16" of dust on it.
The best part of this hamper is the flexibility of it .
These glasses, like the 2 oz are beautiful, and are wonderful for hot drinks, such as lattes, and cold drinks, such as bourbon .I have arthritis which sometimes effects my ability to pick up heavy (?) objects, such as a coffee cup.
The Hoover is much lighter and has a longer & more flexible hose but to use the handheld part, you have to manually disconnect and then reconnect the hose.
These are simple to use - you need to flush them with about 1 gallon or 4 liters of water to activate all the filter area.
The shelves on this rack are level, which allows you to put a pair of flat sandals, flip-flops, or even flat dress shoes on the floor underneath.
the chilling panel hugs the bottle so tighly it is a little difficult removing it .
Overall this purchase would rank as a 4.5-5-Star aquisition under normal circumstances...except:It is advertised as a 16-ounce cup, but wait...
Update: This grinder is under powered. I returned the first one because it regularly needed to be thoroughly cleaned out before it would work again.
I liked that you could put in several of the cloves at once.
This baby cuts through ice cream smoothly and effortlessly .
Provides the perfect physical layer to protect against Bed Bugs , Dust Mites & Allergens.
The Cuisinart is a MUCH better overall fondue pot and for a LOT less money, plus it is dishwasher safe.
The not quite so likable items: the floor brush is suction only, a plastic rectangle with short bristles all around the edge .
So I will be without a bed for over two weeks and then I wonder once they fix it will it be broken again in another few months .
This little one cup brewer does the job much less mess and fuss.
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.
The hopper jams a lot if the grinder is left on the counter top.
It is really 9 1/2 x 13 1/2 X 8 1/2 which was what I really wanted anyway
I'm not sure what product was received by the other folks that have written reviews about this product but I do know that my Ionizer was a real DUD .First of all you need a really DEEP 12v socket in order to plug it in - take a look at the picture - see the little silver button on the side?
my new set is stainless steel in the interior, but i purchased this skillet for cooking the occasional omelette and eggs (i hear non-stick is better for it).
OXO makes pretty good kitchen and household products and this is one of them.
I ordered the second bamboo cutting board after having used a locally purchased one for a while.
I am able to limit the use of A/C if I have a means for proper ventilation.
I let the coffee brew 24 hours on the countertop and the results are consistent.
No such thing as a quick juicing before work -- you'll be spending 10 mins trying to get it to lock in place then 20 mins trying to clean up.overall, I find this machine difficult to work with.
My grandma used to have a bread machine
I almost had a heart attack the first time I used this ( Hoover Elite Rewind for $79 at Walmart).
They list as being effective from -40F to +560F and reusable 3000 times, so you can use them in the freezer, to bake roasts on, cookies...about everything.
I suppose that might be an advantage if you have to schlep it up and down stairs, but it also tells me that it's mostly made of plastic , and that it's probably not all that durable.
They are cold water machine washable and the shade of red is very lovely.
The problem is making the time to prepare your own meals .
These plates (and the bowls) work just fine in the microwave oven with no problems at all.
I pretty much have to grind for 5 minutes to get enough to speckle anything.
TAKE OUT THE BLADE AND GRINDING PLATE. If you don't remove these, it will seem impossible to stuff a full length casing.
On the all-clad you leave a mark on the soapstone every time you cut.
a sporting goods store and some beverage centers as well, unlike Soda Stream which aren't compatible with the systems the previous mentioned venues offer, or you need to be a chemist to try and refill yourself!
It's extremely well and thoughtfully made. The "spout" at the top is wide not a typical straw.
I am very happy with this product and can't wait to try it on other food items.
The shelf itself is light colored wood and will stain easily if you let it.
The Dog is always sleeping there so I don't want expensive throws there.
I bought one of these because of the very positive reviews many people have left.
You can only make one cup at a time, and each time, you have to WAIT for the water to heat up in it!
I just like having a spare pan etc on hand in case one gets scratched. No trouble getting them on the phone, no trouble with my order.
Most of my prior NordicWare purchases were Bundt pans, but I've recently expanded into baking pies, so I purchased a covered pie pan.
So my stars go from 5 to 2 or 3 , because you can still fry in it on a gas stove, and the lid works, it did not change when the bottom warped.
Once the water boils, the Hot Shot cuts off automatically , so there's no problem leaving it plugged in.
This is easy to use, the skillet does not stick and the glass cover allows one to see what is happening without the spatterRecommended!Dr.
This stainless steel bodied rack measures in at 3.6" x 19.2" x 10.6" and features five padded hooks.
Def. recommend .
I am really thrilled to own these.
Yes, the item in question weighs roughly 100 lbs , but the portability doesn't have to do with the weight, but rather the ability to have it anywhere in your house or apartment rather than shoved in a window.
As always if my opioion or any issues come up I will update this review, but so far super happy with this vacuum...
It balances well on the front edge of my counter, and the expanding basket is extremely useful.
One complaint I had with my old slow cooker was that it ran very hot and overcooked food .
This non-abrasive, smooth paste instantly shines up copper and removes even tough stains almost effortlessly.
For fondant i add a really small amount to the fondant i wish to use to make decorations.
In other words, if you need to grab or pick up something with the tip of your fingers and your hands are small to medium , you can't use this mitt.
I'd bet anyone would be happy having this scraper in their kitchen!
Useful addition to my kitchen This item arrived on time and is an excellent purchase.
High quality .
However, they are very stiff which makes it hard to get a good grip on things you are pulling out of the oven.
All of these in-sink soap dispensers have inexplicably narrow-necked bottles which makes them very difficult to fill without crawling underneath the sink and unscrewing the bottle .
When I travel for a month I take it with me, as it is lightweight and small, and a cup of coffee per day at a cafe is $4 euros and more , and that can add up over a month.
It was non-stick as described, heated evenly on an electric stove and overall I was pretty satisfied with it.
Other nice feature is the digital temperature gauge .The one drawback is the handle heats up and gets to be too hot.
It doesn't close and it works pretty much exactly like the cup you get at a coffee house but this has a screw top lid and sealing gasket. They do not have valves or little pieces to wash and disinfect which is great for me.
The most irritating thing about steam irons is that they shed water through the steam holes , leaving large spots of water which then have to be dried out by the iron.
I picked up one of these as a temp blender b/c some tahini seized up in my Vitamix and I had to send it in for warranty which would put me without a blender for 2 weeks.
Plus I went to the Hamilton Beach site and it has a 2 year warrenty to fix or replace.
I gave this 3 stars since they could have easily fixed this by putting another 1/2 to 1 inch metal band around the inside of it (it's currently around 3/8 an inch or so).
I bought a second one to use with my coffee .
I was completely shocked and appalled by the phallic design of this kitchen product.
I never thought I'd love a bread pan so much.
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 did not buy it over Amazon but at BB&B ;, but the exact same model.
If you turn it on first, the thermometer will show the temperature of the air , then you stick it into the item and the display will slowly move to the temperature of the item.
My husband wanted one with some wood, so settled on this one.
We had a West Bend breadmaker like this one for many years.
I just started cooking with it yesterday .
The model I bought six months ago just went out to the trash after months of "bickering with Bickell." I think it worked three times and Bickell's customer service people managed to talk me out of returning it until the return date had passed.
However, if you do not want it, then you probably ought to look into cloth filters.
LOVE:uses plain old tap water , so you don't have to worry about chemicle residuemop pads are machine washable and resusable, so there's no waste and nothing to buyease of use / a real back saver, no scrubbing involvedleaves floors cleaner than regular mopping EVER didextremely light-weightmop head swivels which makes getting hard to reach places (around toilet, under furniture)
Purchased this as my first ever slow cooker. When I received it I was very disappointed to discover that the lighting in the display was broken and it would not cycle through all of the programming options.
I definitely like the feel of it too - it's weighted and so it feels substantial, yer retains its sleek look .
I recommend if you need max volume use the stand on the back it projects the sound much better that way.
This crock pot was slightly larger than what I thought it'd be , so it wasn't as easy to carry.
My slicer and boning knives don't seem to hold as well, but the steel is different and there's just less metal to contact the magnets; they don't feel like they're going to fall off when tested.
The Boos Mystery Oil made the cart look better than the day I bought it.
If I were doing a large animal it would probably take two people to cut the meat up fast enough for one person to feed it and then take another to wrap it.
the worst part is, PUR said it's not covered under warranty because it's a "wear and tear" item.
Finally the seals on the paddle shafts in the pan wore out and they got bread in them and siezed up.
There is a plastic gimmick inside the reservoir to show water level - USELESS, unless you have a flashlight handy .
So, either my taste buds are jaded or my unfiltered water is just as good as the filtered version or the filter is not designed to alter taste.
This warmer is great for me since I keep kosher and have no other way of warming up food at work. After years of eating cold food I can finally have a warm meal at work.
Since the handle is round and has no flattened areas, it tends to torque in your hands in certain cases.
Mostly i use it for boiling eggs , but it comes in handy for gravy and other types of sauces or it is perfect for homemade hot chocolate.
One warning though, don't use roasting bags with it.
The storage bag I got is different from the picture .
So much easier than trying to bang them out by turning the pan upside , which is what I have to do with my metal muffin pan.
First a negative: This unit is big and is not easy to move around or to get out of the box however it comes well packed and protected and had two heavy duty plastic ribbons around it which helped to move it in to the house.
DC26 is very light and very easy to navigate.
While the weight is a touch heavy , the suction power is good and makes up for it.
The other important item is the price, which is very reasonable .
Reduce the amount of batter from the suggested 2 cups to 1.5 cups or you'll overflow2.
It has 2 small shortcomings, however: 1) It slides around in my drawer, just like any organizer I've ever had.
It's solidly constructed and hefty without being heavy , and the high sides make grease spatters almost non-existent.
If you want to cook for two or three you might want a smaller model because this baby only works good if it is at least a third full .
I can fit about 2 # beef on the 5 trays that came with the dehydrator.
I'm surprised to read the reviews of people opening 30 bottles.
The size, shape, weight and non-stick coating were just what I wanted.
Whisper quiet , they are able to heat an average size room to the point of discomfort within a short period of time.
but I bought this simply because it is cheaper .
It's very handy in general to have an immersion blender to make pureed soups right from the pot vs transferring the blender.
The wood is beautiful and eye catching.
1.5 months after purchase.
I already have two bread pans by USA pans and needed some metal square cake pans.
I was a little concerned since this thermos is more slender than the one it was replacing.
Maybe some lemon, or juice ...mint leaves perhaps?
In fact I would be delighted to have a bath robe made out of this toweling fabric.
The only negative thing I could say about it is that it can be a little loud to use depending on the surrounding area.
It comes with its own little cleaning brush which is a plus.
I hate sweeping but enjoyed using this little vacuum .
Which means our house is filled with baking pans of every variety.
I bought these for a wedding shower gift and everyone at the shower commented on them.
The blade cover can be used to soak the sharp business end in hot soapy water to make cleaning easy.
a set of cookware , I researched and decided on this set.
Regardless, I have only had this coffee maker for just over a month and am thinking about buying a different one.
I fill it up with ice and water in the morning, and then refill it at lunch .
I like the design of the rack, it takes up a small amount of space in my cupboard, but the lids just ruin this item.
It produces VERY thin slices (not for slicing cucumbers) but makes amazing onion slices in moments (very thin and uniform great for sandwiches)I find when grating lots of cheese I have to empty the hopper as it will quickly fill and the cheese (especially softer cheeses like Colby) will clump .
I only have a few minor complaints being that it is a bit heavier and noisier than other cordless vacuums and the head is somewhat floppy.
After burning my hand through an old oven mitt at my parents house, I knew something had to be done to keep my sanity in check.
I grew up watching my mother and grandmothers use cast iron skillets so I decided to give this a try and I loved it so much that I just bought a second one.
I've been recommending this wok to my friends and family .
It is amazing that they can compress the mattress and roll it up for shipping!I bought the mattress to go with a platform bed I found on Amazon , "Atlantic Furniture Richmond Full Bed with Open Foot Rail" for a guest room.
I'm returning it because the arm that holds the roller is very crooked , as one reviewer noted, and I know that will bug me - every time I'd look at it I'd see that crooked arm.
You have to put something heavy there to hold it unless I just got a defective unit which I doubt.
I returned it and splurged on the WMF grater .
Personally, I leave the oven door open if I am going to re-use it very soon so the internal temperature cools enough to prevent the thermostat from triggering.
Second, even distilled water leaves significant deposits on the aluminum plate, even after hard boiling only 3 eggs.
a cooling rack , the bottoms hardened up within a minute or two.
First of all, I keep this handy on my glass stove top next to the pan where I have been boiling my preserved foods.
The quality is good and the design is whimsical...very cute.
It states that it is microfiber that feels like egyptian cotton.
We used the yeast raised waffle recipe that came with the waffle maker .
Update: 1/19/2011I am disappointed that the case discolored so much and the lid cracked .
When you cut the pizza, grease from the cheese soaks into the stone .
This makes firm, lasting foam that is great for latte, cappuccino and hot chocolate.
It picked up three times the moisture from the carpet than the Eureka.
It can easily fit 36 pairs of shoes , if you have really wide or large shoes it may be a little less (although other reviews say that with their wide shoes it accomodates 36).
I hand wash my lids
a vacuum we could use to sweep our extensive hard floors.
While I love a lot of OXO products, I this this one is pretty mediocre.
Thinking that I could salvage part of my investment, I then tried to sharpen two pairs of scissors .
I like the fact that they hold the work with minimum contact with it.
My only complaint about it is that it is slightly unstable .
Both are 5 star knives.
The suction is pretty good, it got up a lot of hair, but the suction of the hose is terrible.
Having the blender beater (single) means I can mix dough and beat egg whites or cream separately without cleaning anything in between.
This product would be even better if the rack prongs were spaced more closely together to prevent silverware, sippy cup filters, and other small items from falling through.
You need a brush with coarser bristles to really get the coffee out , and still, there are remnants of coffee in there that I just can't get out.
It's so thin the bottom dent ed when accidentally set on the stove top too hard- wasn't a big deal because my finger did a fine job of pushing the dent back out (yes, it's that thin!).
I found that making a half pot or more results in hotter coffee.
This was a good replacement for my chipped-white beater .
They were soft and absorbent .
I will never use this for a drink that has milk because I don't see a way to effectively clean the lid.
Needed a napkin holder for out in the patio, but having the silverware too makes it even better.
Now I only need to get the ravioli maker .
I typically used a 4 or 6 inch mattress of this type with great results in the Philippines.
There was no smell with this pillow, but I did need to remove some of the buckwheat to make it softer and more pliable.
This shower curtain has no grommets, only some cheap plastic "reinforcing".
This punch bowl has a great capacity and a wide opening.
The only problem (and I wouldn't even call it a problem.) is that they are so thick and heavy it was difficult to wrap around my head.
If you do, water seeps in between the layers of the tray and it is very difficult to recover from this.
It's my own fault for pushing the "popcorn" button on the microwave when the nordic ware instructions say not to, right?), and the lid has warped upward after repeated steaming.
8 cups might be smaller than you expect, but for my family of 5 it gets the little jobs done.
Removing the screw from the top of the pepper mill frees the knob revealing a fairly small interior (about half a spice-size jar of pepper corns).
A little basket on the side or something would be a major improvement.
My mattress expanded to 7 inches by the 3rd day.
I operate in a harsh environment and this works great so I ordered a second one just to have.
This Frazoni one, although a little thinner, is comparable to my Silpat ones, except for the Frazoni's lower price.
Listen to the reviews though, the quality is lacking quite a bit.
Update, about a year later: The enthusiastic slicer in our family has managed to knock off one of the plastic strips , but that's easy enough to work around so doesn't create a problem.
6 )
He has used this brand in past and it lasted about 10 years .
Purchased it specifically to grind spices .
We decided we wanted to make Belgian waffles at home and the ability to turn the waffles over while baking seemed like a good idea.
Place the mini-loaf mold on top of preheated cookie sheet and bake 25-35 minutes until tops are well browned.
I feel ridiculous I didn't do this before, but after this came, we went to Walmart and I got the same thing, plus a small one, plus a medium one- all together for less than this price.
Otherwise I am thrilled to have found the filters .
The only downside so far has been that the halogen light needs a deflector ring or shield to minimize the glare while cooking.
It holds a great amount of liquid and the compartment at the bottom that actually grinds the fruit/veggies is generous.
Designed in the U.S. but manufactured in China.
If I had to do it over, I would just buy the rack, then order 18 bottles separately ( Penzey's sells ones with sturdier plastic lids for less than a buck each) and I'd put this spice rack together myself for ~the same price.
Fortunately, there are a few brands that do deliver nicely for their value, and Sharp is one of those brans.
We purchased this mold for soap making .It is a pretty mold but for those making CP soap in it I recommend you do a couple of batches of re-milled soap first just to get the "bleeding" out of the way or making red soap first few batches.
I have to agree with other buyers on this - it's an outstanding spot cleaner .
This carafe keeps coffee hot for several hours.
It isn't a bad comforter for the price but know that when on the bed, it gives a faded, very used look.
Not sure if the plastic is 'off-gassing', but there is a seriously pungent odor that comes from the bowl after being microwaved .
You can do all sorts of things with a CALPHALON NLYON TURNER (aka spatula ): flip hamburgers, scrape grease off the bottom of a skillet, turn over pancakes on the stove, make a miniature trebuchet, fling food across a room, and pretend to sword fight with someone else in the kitchen who has a plastic spoon.
I couldn't read the bottom row because the background was so dark and the right numbers wouldn't show up.
It is a small stick vacuum so for me it serves its purpose and I give it a 5 star review.
Personally I think the 1-liter bottles are the perfect size.
It has three speeds.
The other, which I bought at WalMart for around $34, was one of those old radiant heaters (a couple of feet long with wires strung back and forth) which was unacceptably loud.
Hand wash in a bowl so you don't lose any accidentally in the dishwasher or down the drain.
Absolutely the best pans I have ever owned and I have a lot of pans.
Got the standard size white cups ; nothing special about them as they're just your basic white cupcake liner.
It is so nice to have a cord-free electric kettle.
The bowl of the spoon is shallow enough that you don't leave ice-cream or peanut butter on the spoon--it all gets into your mouth.
I went around to the other side of the isle and noticed USA Pans.
I've been using the Breville daily for over four years, multiple cups a day .
I have tossed them full into backpacks before a long hike - had them bouncing around the floor of my boat in rough seas - even had them sneakily carried off by my toddler who thought she was getting the hot chocolate inside.
Purchased the Piccolo model due to price .
i send some clothing to my sister,and I used the Medium vacuum-seal flat bags , the size was so small,it was amazing how many things i put in.
I still have burned rice when the cook cycle ends.
You have to follow the directions before the first use, heating it on the highest heat cycle for 3 times to burn off the "new"
Update: Its been almost 7 months now
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 .
I have been a fan of USA based Whitford , and their coatings for decades, dating back to the seemingly indestructible "Excalibur" coating from the 1990's.
but you can certainly tell the difference between the real authentic original and the newer skimpy made ones and not necessarily by the 5 star or 6 star shape .
Of course I use it to fill my Ball jars even though I am more likely freezing the contents than canning them.
This replaced my first Cuisinart Smartstick which did rough duty for years before one of the blades broke on some ice (I'm not even sure you're supposed to used it on ice, but I did for years.)I use it VERY regularly.
The K Cup side is limited to 10oz per brewing, which in my house means at least 2 KC to a &#3 4 ;real" mug of coffee.
I like the handle on the canister unit, and the dust bin empties easily .
I've gone through several powered and manual sharpening tools looking for something that will put an edge on my knives that my father, a retired chef, won't scoff at, and this is by far the best I've found.
I typically used a 4 or 6 inch mattress of this type with great results in the Philippines .
the Wedgewood color ended up being more of an ocean blue and less grey than I was expecting, at least on my monitor display.
However, the square slot just to the right of it is a little too close, so the edge of the knife comes into contact with the plastic handle of my honing steel unless I'm super careful.
My family has been using the Foreman for 10 years and I never thought I would get rid of it.
I have gotten tremendous use out these cappuccino glasses .
This warmer is great for me since I keep kosher and have no other way of warming up food at work.
I got one, and I am glad it was the green (it was the color I was rooting for)
I got the Rachael Ray Dinnerware Holiday Hoot 16-Piece Dinnerware Set to use this Christmas.
This one was the right size at the right price .
I have used this product for the last 6 months without any issues.
I did have a piece of toast get stuck once because the metal has become slightly warped on one side .Overall, I really like it and don't regret it.
If I ever need to upgrade to a 2lb loaf, there's only one brand I'll consider.
we bought this on lightning deal for black Friday and got a great deal on it, I did see that it does not come with the screws to mount to the wall, that was no biggie, just make sure to get 3 and a half inch wood screws at the hardware shop and your set to go, we assembled this unit in less then 15 minutes, and got it up on the wall in 20 minutes = 35 minutes, this is a great concept and it does not stick out far from the wall and the openings are the perfect size .
Just hold the handle behind you as you walk and it seems weightless.
After 2 weeks of frying a few things in it - eggs would not come out - they started sticking, badly.
It's absolutely quiet .
The OXO Good Grips Three Ring Trivet Set is a functional and well thought out update to trivets made of cork or plastics, but is not as much of an improvement to the traditional design as many other OXO products.
It is not designed for softer cheeses or veggies -- leave those to your box grater or food processor.
The water boils quickly, the kettle is stylish and easy to clean, the filter is removable for cleaning of hard water deposits, and replaceable, AND the pour spout is wide and offers very little spillage.
Other than that, the price is good for this you're basically mounting the speaker onto the stand with a screw that goes through another cable management bracket on the back of it.
This Baguette pan , works wonderfully!
"The heat will not spread evenly" when my 80 year old Chinese grandmother first saw this wok and she was right.
The second thing that I don't like about this iron is that it shuts off quickly - in about 3 minutes when not being used - and to reheat the iron, you have to push the control button repeatedly to get it to the hottest setting - it takes 10 pushes to get it to the "max" setting on my iron as some of the pushes don't seem to register on the electronic control.
But it is a fantastic design .
There should be a chart relating American rice types to the Asian types .
A broad overview on this system:*You can filter as little as one bottle of water or up to 4.*The system comes with either a black or white base and four 16.9 fl oz bottles with brightly colored (leak-proof)
I am not the greatest baker, but I made a batch of Bailey's cupcakes in this, and they came out okay.
The carafe is not so easy to empty the last drop out of either.
Had I read the washing instuctions (that is NOT listed on the shower curtain!)
The funnel helps me get started without spillage.
Got this at an outlet mall at deep discount, so not expecting miracles.
It seems to be sturdily built .
I received my desk recently and am pretty pleased with it so far.
It does not fit cleanly into a corner angle and is so light weight that a bump dislodges it.
You could drive over this pan with your car and it probably wouldn't do much damage.....really.
The primary use of this mixer is to make 4 loaves of bread/week .
All that being said; I mop twice after first sweeping and vacuuming the floor.
I found if you palmed it it was very comfortable for both of us.
This steamer does a fine job of steaming vegetables and it sounds simple to use.
Cleaning is easy, once the garlic remnants dry in the press, just brush it out with your finger or a spatula .
The handles are soft and the automatic spring action is a lifesaver.
We received our machine a couple of weeks ago and we have really enjoyed it.
I received the Nespresso U C50 with Aeroccino Milk Frother today.
For those who don't mind a very scarce assembly manual that, in the case of the King Size model has the wrong pictures and the wrong list of parts and very vague instructions this should be a 5-star product because everything is right about the product itself .
Rubbermaid White Spatula 9 1/2"I have found that they do not pick up color, at least not with my pasta sauce or food coloring when baking; nor do the heads pick up any odor , especially when working with pasta sauce and garlic.
then it must rest for about 2 hours before resuming again.if you want to do spot vacuuming: goodif you have a studio apartment: goodif you want to vacuum 1000sq-ft carpeted apartment: not good
I also use it for instant oatmeal and any other water based foods.
But , for the money, it's an ok toaster but i suspect that it may not last forever like toasters of the past!
This thermos works great.
Must have 4 D batteries and I even got some spare batteries from amazon, also a good deal, in case the batteries run out.
Although 1 of the 4 pack was broken ( Amazon refunded the purchase and let me keep the other 3) they seem very rugged and have thick sidewalks.
So I came back and ordered a second set! GREAT!
I use cream which makes it thicker and honey on top I calculated the calories and it is a lot less then many store bought ones
I recently purchased this waffle maker after using a cheaper one made by a different company.
I have not been brave enough to test the whole grab a cob of corn straight out of the pot of boiling water or any of those 600 degree limit testing things OXO touts, but all in all I am happy with the purchase.
Ususally, you can only purchase it in China town .
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.
The coffee stays hotter longer than a glass press would allow as it's insulated .LOVE
If you simply want to go back to the '50s this tray is what you want.
AND I FOUND IT TO BE A TERRIFIC BUY !
My husband bought this from Walmart - he wanted to get away from teflon.
I bought this last night from a brick and mortar store, I didn't want to wait for shipping .
Miracle foam pillows are too firm for my neck.
I warmed 2 frozen sausage patties in the microwave for 1 minute while machine was still heating up.
the little door in the front keeps popping back up and loses the suction .
I had this bacon cooker in the past and was satisfied with it for the price .
Well over a year's worth of solid performance doesn't seem unreasonable for $15, so although we'd be happier if it were more durable, we like the way it works otherwise and I don't see any better options so am about to just order one more.
Eureka has been a trusted name in vacuums for years !!
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.
NO buzzer !
They replaced my other set that I had for almost twenty years .
The shredding/slicing disk is a nice addition and helps make the food processor a little more handy!
It seems to have plenty of power -- it picks up small rocks with no problem.
Only has even number of grounds setting.
I would definitely recommend to anyone that wants to get rid of the toxns from using a microwave , or if you just want hot water available in a split second.
If you haven't used it for awhile, you forget about that and then you make a little hassle for yourself.
Needing to outfit a new kitchen I was looking for a set that would work with all types of cookware.
I haven't had any issues with toast getting stuck inside of the toaster, or burnt edges .
Assembly is a snap and yes, emptying can be tricky, however if one removes the top it's not a problem.
Once or twice a year you take out the heppa sponge and wash it in soap and water.
I'm very pleased with this skillet, and it's the perfect size for a couple people .
After less than a year, I had to discard it because the rubber seal on the bottom kept falling off.
Air like water is nearly impossible to keep out of anything that it surrounds so if your looking for "space saving" get a box of Contractor's Heavy Duty Trash Bags and fold your items placing them into the bag, gather the bag around the vacuum cleaner hose, when the air is removed tie a knot in the bag.
Yes, they are very cheap, but if you use an over-sized glass very often, as we do, it won't fit in the coaster because of it's high rim.
We keep Parmesan cheese in ours, to seal it for freshness we place a plastic sandwich bag over the top and secure it with a rubber band.
I assume that most people do this and then the manufacturer simply disposes of the faulty pots into a landfill and the customer is told they need to purchase another pot , but I'm not willing to do that.
The Oster has more power and chops much closer to the bottom of the bowl .I returned the Cuisinart in trade for a new Oster.
I'd pay even more for it now that I've seen how well it works.
We were looking for an inexpensive and simple coffeemaker.
Other pluses for this iron include how easy it is to fill the water reservoir spill-free, it heats up very quickly and produces lots of steam when I want steam and the heft is just right, not too heavy.
Don't even bother with those non-breakable versions -- the caraf doesn't break but the plunger does.
gonna get lots of uses out of it with all the squash planted in the garden!The only gripe I really have about it is the leftover nubs of squash.. seems so wasteful!
We've tried broths, cheese, and chocolate in it and couldn't be happier!
As for durability, I used it very frequently and without incident for 15 months.
I am an avid sewer , so I really have to have a good ironing board.
Might have to go back to stainless steel.
I settled on this system because it was one of only three that met standards for water temperature.
Needing to outfit a new kitchen I was looking for a set that would work with all types of cookware .
The only reasons I keep this over an electric version is that I appreciate anything that reduces energy usage and I don't like having extra wires around, especially in the kitchen.
I'm comparing it to my round omelette pan I was using prior which wasn't hard but this makes the tamago rectangles perfect.
I had been tossing the lids into boiling water and then trying to get them out with either tongs, or the magnetic wand - that resulted in a lot of frustration and burned fingers.
I purchased quart size canning jars this year for the purpose of storing dry goods and leftovers and an attempt to avoid so much plastic in my life.
It is just over 8 inches long to reach down into tall glasses.
an excellent purchase.
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.
Also helps keep my portions to a reasonable size so I don't overeat !
After having had it now for almost a year , I can say it's been very helpful.
Long cord, easy to fill with water, steam in 30-seconds, two levels of steam, even distribution of steam, light weight, no hand pumping, swivel head for tight spots, pad attaches easily.
In a previous review I stated that I was new to baking and decided to buy a decorating kit.
Not likely!
I attached this to my Kitchenaid Classic 4.5Q and it fit and worked perfect. After watching a video on youtube to understand more on what to do I tried it out.
but I can only give it three stars because it starts to discolor within the first week of using it and no method of cleaning can restore its beautiful, original, clear quality.
Great for students , college, bedroom, corners, mobile homes, or business applications like mine.
i don't like using vinegar and water either as i think it leaves the floors looking dull. this steamer works, but there are better ones out there.
When it's folded flat, it is shorter than an average bar by a good foot ; it's a little thicker by about two inches.
I use a Swiffer on my hard floors (tile and wood) once a week.
It is easy and kind of fun .I would recommend this to anyone that has a kitchenaid mixer.
I have to use "super-grippy" potholders to pick this up.
Oxo , you should be ashamed of yourselves for making this piece of junk, which was clearly designed to deceive the consumer.
The first one took the longest as it took me a moment to realize what the easiest method was to attack it.
I do make sure I fluff a little when making the bed, but there is no breakdown and no feathers of any kind.
The only con is that grocery store baggers tend to pack them TOO FULL!
My recipe: 10 lbs pork shoulder2 lbs bacon (unsliced)2 lbs ultra-sharp cheddar (shredded)2 tbs ground fennel2 tbs ground corriander2 tbs ginger1 tbs ground mustard1 tbs chili powder2 tbs red flake pepper1/4 cup watersprinkling of saltUse natural hog casings and your all set.
BUT they were SO soft! I washed them and put them on my bed immediately.
These are worth the money and keep my comfortable and make cooking and cleaning less of a chore.
But if the pot is larger then you need to be careful because the walls may collapse.
Had a spot on guest bedroom floor that I've been trying to get rid of with no luck.
Bad beer should be cooled until it's too cold to taste.
When I first ordered this timer I was a little unsure that I would be satisfied with this item.
By the way, for recipe conversions:High setting = 250F =
It's disappointing to get something that appears to be of quality materials, but the workmanship is poor .
Although I wish the tank had more capacity , it is fun to gauge your progress.
But I don't find that it cooks the muffins as nicely as in the oven, the bottoms tend to be rather hard and I find the muffin comes out "denser" if you will than normally.
I bought this unit because of several reviews that said it was whisper quiet .
After 2 weeks of frying a few things in it - eggs would not come out - they started sticking, badly.
Just get yourself some tongs for getting the food out of the fryer and your set.
The end that is cut .
My daughter frequently travels to Japan and wanted to enjoy the same types of rice here that she experienced in Japan.
The only thing I would suggest would be to put something on the bottom to make sure it doesn't get knocked off the counter by accident because the bottom is a little slippery and it could chip.
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.
Stainless steel is sanitary and long lasting.
I bought the Mr. Coffee warmer to replace a homemade warmer that was better at keeping the coffee hot, but finally succumbed to old age.
I do not have any problems getting enough salt out of the shaker and the pepper shaker is more for white pepper .
So far my wife and I have purchased six Fiesta 4-Piece Place Settings (tangerine, sunflower, paprika, scarlet, turquoise, and lemongrass), with a few extra serving dishes to match.
Top among them: easy to clean .
It warped; and I was faithfully wiping it with cutting board oil after each use, and I never submerged it into the water.
I used this vacuum a couple of times, and then gave it to my local Goodwill .
it has an area for smell and particles and it monitors the air and turns up and down as needed.
I bake all of our own bread and the loaves turn out perfectly every time.
Decided on buying this drying rack after reading some reviews about wooden racks .
I bought it mostly for weighing meat portions when cooking dinner.
This unit has now been in operation 100% of the time for three years and hasn't skipped a beat or whined once.
I ordered this pillow because I was sick of the department store pillows going flat after a few months of use.
The Rowenta vacuum is wonderful for small areas.
It fits exactly how I need it to (thanks to the expandable feature ) and has a no-slip grip for cans to sit on.
I was looking for a very small spatula - more in the 6 - 8 inch long size - and couldn't find anything, so decided to try this one with it's smaller size head and it works fine.
As someone who's fond of making margaritas and Moscow mules , it's a lot easier when you have a citrus squeezer.
And it’s a good thing I did that because I ended up serving over 60 Tequila dinks in less than 3 hours.
But I took the positive reviewers at their words and wasn't at all disappointed...this works great!
I've used this with and without oil and with butter flavored cooking spray.
The problem for me with this cooktop is its incessant beeping .
I had an old faithful popcorn popper and could not find one to reorder.
So far, I have used it in the kitchen and to weigh packages prior to mailing them.
a single cup brewer
I have bought it for all my family members who drink coffee and they all love it.
Never owned a plastic shower caddy until this one and I prefer it over the others.
This pan arrived and I was shocked - there were not enough words to described my disappointment .
This duvet feels (to me) like down , just without the stabby feathers and it's heavy enough that I don't have to use more than one electric heater while sleeping this winter night (I'm a freeze baby, though).
I think they probably know better and have done a great job.
For the price, it's pretty darn good and looks great in our bedroom supporting our flat screen :)
You can get a single small pork roast on it, but that's about it.
Well, that just creates an extra step and extra mess, and takes up extra counter space for a product that only does 2/3 of the job I need it to do.
Every kitchen should have a digital thermometer and every cook should use one.
A dutch oven can do most of that, but those are so heavy before you add food that I have avoided getting one.
It was packed with so much gunk that I could not clean with q tips .
The coffee is always weak in comparison to our other Keurig machine and it brews about half of a cup or half of the water that you place into the holding tank .
Libbey glasses in general have usually held up to everyday usage so I chose them based on the brand.
We've only had them for a few weeks but use them very regularly and so far they're great!
Love the clear glass .
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 .
and also.....EASY to clean!My wife and I can make a gallon of juice in a matter of a few minutes, and the 4 parts of the juicer that need to be cleaned (besides the juice pitcher) can be cleaned in about 5 minutes.
after having owned a Calphalon contemporary non-stick set for 8 years with non-stick coating peeling off (ugh...health hazard??), it was time to replace with new pieces.
The cool thing is that it really insulates the room nicely it keeps my sleep area cool and it prevents my living area from getting cold
So, we have to keep it plugged in for it to be available when we need it.
This coffee maker has gradually lost it's ability to work from day one .
And I like how it's easy to clean and made of durable tempered glass that can hold up to 11 pounds.
I have to admit that I was really quite surprised when I received them as these really are very high quality pieces.
It's so convenient to store with the airtight cap .
Perhaps I should have read more carefully, but this is definitely a SHOULDER bad.
The temps options are selectable between 300, 325, 350, to 375 max.
Take up little space and are light but also break easily with little pressure .
(This was also true of the Henckels knife block, part of my personal set.)The reason I rated the set 4-Stars was that the handles, poly(whatever), did not fit my hand as comfortably as my Henckels 4-Star set .
I didn't hang it on the back of a door I actually mounted it to a wall in three separate sections.
They hold a lot, are sturdy and comfortable to carry .
Just pour in milk and twist the knob for foam , anyone can do it.
This tablecloth is 70" in diameter which is perfect for our table at 48" diameter.
Ended up having to replace the refrigerator with one that is designed to work in a colder environment (a garage refrigerator) and now I can make sure the new one is working properly.
It's also overpriced for so much plastic .The rack assembles very easily since there isn't much to it.
It makes both good espresso and good coffee and the milk steamer works very well .
With that being said, it doesn't take long to get these put together and the cable management is really good , you're basically running cable through the base of the speaker stand and out the bottom...
I do have one minor complaint, there was a sticker on the inside of the scoop itself that must have been applied with super glue or something because I had to soak it for almost 45 mins just to get the darn thing off.
Lids go in the rack, rack goes in the water, and then you can use your magnetic wand to pull the lids out of the rack and drop them onto the jars - you never touch the lid and it goes on to the jar completely clean.
Containers are solid and glass and are quality items.
And, unlike my oldBISSELL Steam Mop Deluxe Hard Floor Cleaner, 31N1, this Steamfast model doesn't require a water filter in order to work!
I will be ordering another one in the future because there are times I become extra clumsy .
a little cutting board .The vent is especially handy when the bread is out of the bread machine, as even after cooling on a rack, the bread keeper need to vent out the moisture and heat.
It fits nicely in a microwave .The worst thing is it is flimsy.
Perfect for spaghetti eis, a dessert I had in Germany .
I deep fry and the oil is expensive so I reuse it but it needs to be strained.
They are also one of the top ranked towel products if you search on Amazon in Home and Kitchen under bath towels and sort by stars, which is what I did to find them in the first place.
The two things I find mildly annoying:1) When turning the fan off while it is oscillating, it stops at whichever position it was oscillating at. While it's not a big deal, it drives me crazy, because I like it to be straight and aligned with the base while not in use, and if you turn it off at random, the top part may be pointing off the base to either side.
I cannot recommend using this on wood floors .
I used this on my Thanksgiving turkey and it was right on the money.
It cooks any meat within 5 minutes, perfectly every time.
My two complaints after several years of use: the opener has never really held a charge ... after a bottle or two it's done.
Long cord, easy to fill with water, steam in 30-seconds, two levels of steam, even distribution of steam, light weight, no hand pumping, swivel head for tight spots, pad attaches easily.
Because the can has a lip at the top that holds the bag securely without having to use any special retaining devises.
But you're probably not going to put this next to your "nice" furniture .
Save your box and receipt , so you can return it if needed.
In addition to the obvious product flaw, this waffle maker gets extremely hot steam (burn worthy) that pours forth from where the handle attaches between the iron plates. The iron plates get hotter in the middle and so the waffles don't cook evenly.
We bought 2 : one for garbage, one for recycling.
You can't tell from the picture, but this item looks quite elegant, as if it were made of fairly high quality porcelin, but it's made of CorningWare which along with Pyrex always gets top marks from me.
If you don't use it for 4-5 days , the charge depletes!
Within a matter of months, the cutters went dull (my diagnosis).
It looks great in my living room with my black leather furniture and my black curtain panels.
I read how it cleaned rugs well and broke often so I bought it.
Others have had size problems, but these fit the Shark XL which has the larger head.
This is not a well-designed hook or key holder, and it's not really cute enough to be this impractical either, so it gets 2 stars.
Huge Pro - Super easy to spray bread evenly.
I use this for homebrewing after reviewing several thermometers out there.
The only this has going for it is that the print is cute , the print that's only on one side that is...
Yep, I am more than pleased with this digital scale .
Just need to put the two pieces together and fill with water from the little holes in the top.
Bought this for my wife as a Christmas present, decided to spend the extra money (cause my sweetie is worth more than just a snuggie) and I'm really glad I did.
I just received my 7qt Lodge cast iron dutch oven this morning, and it is big and beautiful.
I own four indoor cats, so believe me when I tell you this steam mop works wonders.
The dough is very wet , so it goes through the holes quickly and gets sliced off by the square box, and right into the boiling water or broth they go.
It looks great sitting out on my counter where it is always left out.
Although 1 of the 4 pack was broken (Amazon refunded the purchase and let me keep the other 3) they seem very rugged and have thick sidewalks.
I get 3 perfect cups of pu-erh tea.
I make my own fresh pickles and pickled ginger, so wanted something that would withstand the corrosion from the vinegar that eats up the metal lids and rusts them to the bottles .
I made sausage and cheese egg muffins in the OvenArt muffin pan to fully test the baking cups ability to cook evenly, be nonsticking, and come out clean.
No heat in the kitchen, like my gas stove, Florida where I live, is hot and the central air eats a lot of electricity, this cooktop uses less than 12 cents of electricity for hour, and does not heat my kitchen at all.
I agree with other reviewers that the lids are very fragile.
However if you don't have pets who jump up on the table and want a basic tablecloth you can wipe clean this will work.
The rack was bent in two places at the top .
When moving the mattress around it's awkward and heavy , so if you plan on moving soon or you like to rearrange furniture often, keep that in mind; this also pertains to the packaging - it's too large for your standard car.
With this model you can easily input the exact amount of time you want without having to scroll thru a lot of numbers.
The main thing, though, is that it has cut down on the dust in the room and accumulating on the furniture tremendously.
No strings or ravels were found. For a large person, you might want to consider the next towel size up.
I bought the wrong size but I then purchased the smaller ones.
My only complaint is the small size of the cups , and I about never use the saucers, but that's a matter of taste, and there are other sets available.
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.
The vent is especially handy when the bread is out of the bread machine , as even after cooling on a rack, the bread keeper need to vent out the moisture and heat.
I have successfully dropped these glasses in the sink several times and not a single scratch has came about.
Grommets, hangers and rod are all stain/rust free and the curtains are doing the job they were designed to do.
I don't even use the measuring cups/spoons .
My only complaint is what it seems all overs have griped about too, the cord is very short .
First bought a Dansk one from crate and barrel , but the pepper compartment was tiny, so returned that.
As stated, if you use them properly they will last a very long time .
A neighbor recommended this product; I also researched other sites and am very pleased that Amazon carried the model I wanted.
I bought the 12.5 inch and using my gas grill and flax seed oil, put a non stick surface on the skillet that was the color of light carbon and tough.
The first week I had this one, I couldn't read the bottom row because the background was so dark and the right numbers wouldn't show up.
The room does not have the best circulation, and in the middle of the summer (hot and humid days) it got really damp feeling in there.
The entire back of my condo has sliding glass doors rather than regular windows and since the master bedroom is at back
This Timolino was backed by very credible experts, yet it is NOT a TRAVELING tumbler, as they claim it to be.
The humidifier is easy to clean and has no 90 degree angles that are impossible to clean with a q-tip.
It is not too heavy, so it is easy to use on stairs and you hardly even know it is following you when it rolls behind you.
Last night I dropped one of these on the floor while I was in a standing position and it did not shatter or even crack .
I didn't notice when I signed the lease on my new apartment that there was no plug in the bathtub drain .
We have enjoyed using these pieces daily .Our
My only grouse is that the cord is ridiculously (as in open to ridicule) short .
The color is a little darker than I was looking for and it's thinner than I thought it would be.
By the way these are heavy mainly because of the wonderful stainless steel base, some people don't like that
I would much rather have two metal mills !
The flimsy construction made set up a nightmare.
I purchased this pan at Macy's, and love it so much that I have put a second one on my Amazon Wish List (about $3 less than Macy's).The non-stick surface works like a charm - with just a little bit of greasing ahead of time, nothing sticks.
The carafe holds temperature well and - and you'l appreciate this after drippy conventional carafes - it doesn't drip .
The teflon coated worm screws into the cork with almost no effort.
Have to use the knobs to change speeds manually.
I've used plastic ones and the handles generally snap.
the cages are much sturdier than i imagined they would be.
They feel good in my hand and are well worth the price.
After rubbing against my bed frame for a few months , the fabric wore down and tore!
When our can opener broke, I hopped on Amazon to look for a new one.
The "spout" at the top is wide not a typical straw .
Not only do these BedVoyage sheets look great but the super soft feel is fabulous!
Lighter-weight books are OK, too, but unless it's a book that stays flat and open on its own, both hands are necessary to keep those books open.
But it's from China , so only time will tell if that's true.
2 cats, plus a wife with long curly hair, means a lot of hair, fur, and litter tracked around, and Roomba takes care of it all without a complaint.
This review was written by my wife .Leifheit's Vario Cutting Board is a welcome addition to my kitchen.
Long enough to reach the deepest pots and don't get too hot to hold due to being hollow .
Like many products in the USA, they are made in China , they look just like in the picture.
The markings on the blade are very helpful and the nice thick handle makes it easy to use.
My cupcakes cooked evenly and were super easy to pop out by using my fingers to push the bottom of each muffin cup .
The water boiled quickly and efficiently .
As a result, you get about two tablespoons or so of water if you dump directly to your plate .
The concept is simple -- a cutting board with interchangeable surfaces so that there is no cross contamination from various foods.
So I decided it was time to be a grown-up and buy one that cost more but would last longer.
When I received this set, I was surprised to learn that the manufacturer does not recommend using them on ceramic or glass top stoves.
This little personal hot water maker is just what I tea drinker like me needed.
Granted these are not the most expensive out there, but they are Made in Germany , and the reviews spoke of it being solid, and had durability and some weight.
I had registered the vacuum with Hoover when I received it
I seriously expected this to be of better quality given Kyocera 's
It's nice to hold onto, very comfortable, nice long electrical cord.
So the pan has a tendency to tip over when empty .
One reason Lodge pre-seasoned products are higher is becasue they are supposed to be pre-seasoned and ready for immediate use.
I have called them to order spare parts for my rice cookers, and to order a spare pan for this bread machine in case I ever need it.
Our youngest has had many accidents on it
Old times will always know him as a great fighter , but generations to come will know him as the guy who's name is on this incredible kitchen device.
There is going to be more blending happening at my house!
I got this shower curtain to match my Audrey's Garden accessories that I bought on clearance at BBB several years ago.
Plus we have dogs and I have to put them where the dogs can't get to them.
Fist off, there is a paper ad under the plastic where it sucks up the water , you might want to remove that ;)My mom used to swear by those carpet cleaners you rent from the super market.
The queen fit is just right for our high bed and does not drag on the floor.
Finding them locally would have been a hassle.
I love the removable crumb catcher! And for us, the slices are even and the size is fine.
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).
It is a very modern take on a fruit bowl, but it functions very well as one.
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.)
I buy Dial antibacterial hand soap in large eco-friendly refill bags (Dial Eco-Smart Pomegranate & Tangerine Antibacterial Moisturizer Hand Soap Refill) and pour it into this dispenser, using it as a soap dispenser in my home bathroom.
It is cute too, washes easily, Dip-It cleans the residue that accumulates over time.
But after about 6 months or so, the bottom half of the two-piece handles came unglued, one by one, rendering them useless.
This griddle pan is aesthetically beautiful .
After burning my hand through an old oven mitt at my parents house , I knew something had to be done to keep my sanity in check.
I just trim the ends off of each clove and roll it around briefly in the tube.
and although I have a huge walk in closet , I also have a lot of clothes and shoes.
Who would ever think that two little tiny stripes of color would make a white towel look so darn elegant?
a childs use.
Let's face it, if you want to be healthy, a proper diet is essential and cannot be overlooked.
Just received the Progressive International Powdered Sugar Keeper and am so glad I did!
It isn't for the TV room unless you like loud TV!!
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.
It has many features I look for in a vacuum, number one is a loooong cord .
The shorter, wider design of the Bodum makes it easier to get the coffee grounds in and out, and it's not tippy like the Frieling.
I saw this same brand and same overall design type at Bed, Bath, & Beyond for $39.99, but I got this for approximatly $20 on Amazon.
Still need to use a lot of strength to squeeze the potatoes through as well as doing it in many batches for 2.5 lbs potatoes.
Just the right size, fairly thick plastic, and although there was a rubber smell for 1 or 2 days the odor went away.
I have a 50" plasma TV that weighs about 60 pounds on it and it holds it perfectly.
The Aladdin 32-Ounce Collapsible Steamer functions just as it's advertised.
I'm planning to purchase more for my children's twin beds.
Sturdy built, three settings for the size of holes the mashed/riced product goes through, disassembles for thorough washing, reassembles easily without the directions.
My previous pressure cooker was a complex affair with springs and components tucked away in plastic housing so that they could not be accessed.
Construction is really sturdy and they are suitable for whatever stove top surface you have according to the packaging.
And the recipes included with the cookie press are very heavy on butter - 3 or 4 sticks for each batch! - which makes them taste more like shortbread cookies to me (not my favorite and more expensive to bake).
But I would suggest putting it on top of a tray while filling and transferring to the freezer
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.
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.
They tip and the plastic breaks or cracks .
I got this kit because I really wanted to make Mozzarella and then make Ricotta with the leftover whey .
Secondly, contrary to previous poster, we need to set it at five to get toasted browned bread .
Not industrial strength and no deluxe bells and whistles, but definitely gets the job done for basic home use .
I have electronic stove.
Received this 1 hour ago and does not work in my house and had spent 200.00 for assistance to try to fit my windows, very disappointed that this has happen.
It's also something that will probably last decades with proper care.
The adjustable gears work fine.
I haven't used it much at all in the last month and a half that I've owned it.
If they had included a recipe guide or any kind of instructions for cooking this would be five stars.
I worried about fire hazard .
I've owned two, both less than a year old .
You can only make one cup at a time, and each time, you have to WAIT for the water to heat up in it!
If I had any complaints, it's that the clips for the lid get in the way a bit if you use pot holders to try and remove the crock while it's still hot , but it's not enough of a complaint to lower my rating.
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.
When you buy the pre-formed 1/4 lb patties in the supermarket, that come in the poly-sleeve, they are 5 inches in diameter .
Fot extra security I put a screw in the wall hanging hole in my speaker housing and secured it to the back support brack with a flat washer and nut .
Tastes good .
Yeah sure, Hepa filter microns microbes blah blah, but it's the *carbon* filter (aka the Honeywell 38002 Enviracare Universal Replacement Pre-Filter) that keeps the house from smelling like a Bullitt County bingo hall .
I drink coffee every morning and usually I make it for the week (I am not a connoisseur) and refrigerate it.
It is heavy , so may be a little clumsier to pour than lighter ones.
On the whole, a disappointment .
It's great that it comes with filters (we use each filter twice).
Visitors to my kitchen spot this pan and often ask what I use it to do.
My main complaint is that the fan speed selector has tiny lights on it that , in a way similar to xmas "chasing" lights, appear to spin at various speeds.
I own this pan in the 8" and just love it.
In the last three years, I have just been struggling with the water pump , but I did not replace it because it is an expensive unit.
The color that I chose was amazing , and I believe it's a MUST for every family to have.
It can easily hold two large loads if you use hangers and pins (and maybe three if you are very organized or have smaller items ).
Okay, I have spilled the bucket a few times when I pulled it out--find it a bit awkward to handle--but at least the appliance turns off if I forget to empty it.
ATK recommends that you get to know your cooker and I am beginning to know this Fissler .
This Mortar and Pestle is a great lil accent to my baking toolbox, its weight is just perfect .. I have so far used it for pecans, (for pecan encrusted chicken) and sea salt for my artisian bread, and lavendar from the garden.. too many uses, great gadget!!!
The next problem is the instructions are not very clear and the photos are pretty poor .
I bought this to use for making jam .
We have now been sleeping on these beds for 2 and a half months .
I tell everyone about this little inexpensive vacuum and they have bought it with the same results.
Since I bought the Breville , I use the traditional oven as extra storage for pots and pans.
It will be used for straining seeds out of fresh squeezed lemon/lime juices, pulp from making almond milk , and for any of the smaller jobs that don't require a larger strainer.
I don't think the design is that great and I'm not into the white color.
We have a 700 square foot finished basement which is heated by both forced hot air from the propane furnace and an 8 foot baseboard heater .The baseboard heater is extremely expensive to run in the winter.
Expensive, but a very good quality product.
The Henckle's feels just as sharp and easily passes the paper test.
We followed the instructions, and the waffles were crispy outside and nice inside.
My brother loves making s'mores in the microwave, so I bought him this as a Christmas present.
This is a great little vacuum .
I've owned the Lasko tower fan with remote control for nearly four years now.
I wanted to use these containers for flour , but I need a cup at a time.
After using lesser juicers for a couple of years (you can see my reviews of them on amazon ) I saw this machine at a store and bought it from amazon.
just to add on to all the good reviews this is a fantastic dutch oven I kicked it off by seasoning it again because yes people the seasoning is not stellar mine actually looked grey a bit still so in the oven it went but after that little time killer the fun began I made a roasted chicken with lemon rosemary and onion with garlic it was amazing how well this thing cooked it, literally so juicy and tender it fell off the bone..
I found this product which my husband liked, too because of the oven feature!
Olive oil comes out In a perfect stream and after using , no drips down the sides, because of the design of bottle .I like that it is opaque, and I feel it does keep the olive oil fresher.
Finally, the highly polished finish shows every mark or smudge.
Only one T-bone can fit on this grill at a time...or two chicken pieces.
However it does get everything but very dark and old stains out perfectly well.
It is glass with a metal twist on/off top, made in Mexico.
I'm going to take the leap and spend the big bucks for a five burner induction cooktop.
Pros:+ Blade incredibly sharp+ Sheath is solid wood+ Sheath f its blade like a glove+ Knife is light weightCons:- Handle is slightly rough-
After three hours in a hot car, the water is still pleasantly cool.
Her first comment is it is a red finish like on a car. I asked do you mind it.
My fingers aren't as reliable as they used to be and I have already dropped a couple of these and they didn't break when they hit the floor .
I returned the grinder for that reason.
Replacement filters are relatively expensive at $ 42.00 .
Best part about this kettle is that water only comes in contact with the stainless .
The dividers have small gaps in places, which results in the knives occasionally sliding into the adjoining compartment .
The entire thing is welded steel , so there's nothing plastic to bend or break on it.
Maybe its friction, or a lack of it, but it seems every morning I'd wake up on bare mattress , and have to redo 2 or more corners of my fitted sheets.
These were just what I needed!I have a TOUCH of OCD, and ever since Pinterest came into my life I have been trying to figure out how to make my spices look less trashy.
I've bought Oxo Good Grips before and was very satisfied so I checked to see if they had something that would solve my problem and came across this.
The handle is perfectly shaped, easy to grip, and feels so good in my hand.
I had a fountain I wanted to run ten hours, but the fountain lights , on a separate cord, I just wanted to run two hours, but part of the ten hours, such as the last two hours.
It comes with this AWESOME extra thomas themed tupperware type container with two sections AND it also has a "secret" compartment in the front of the lunchbox.
And if you live in an old house and just cannot get rid of those pantry moths no matter what you try - these are impervious to the moths finding a way in (thus the successful storage of the flour and sugar).
The plastic on all parts didn't want to bend cleanly, making it a bit fussy to assemble each piece.
I use my grandmother's method of taking care of the grill -- let it cool completely (NEVER put hot cast iron in water, it cracks and gets little holes in it); coat with coarse salt, scrub with a paper towel, rinse with plain water (never use soap); place on a hot stove to dry and then coat with a layer of vegetable oil and let it cool.
My main issue is that it has major hot spots .
I picked up one of these as a temp blender b/c some tahini seized up in my Vitamix and I had to send it in for warranty which would put me without a blender for 2 weeks .I can't speak to other's expectations or results, but the makers bill this blender as an affordable alternative to a Vitamix.
I use towels above this protector and a 200 polartec blanket underneath it, right above the mattress for further protection.
I only used it when I found 2 pound bags of Starbuck's French Roast at T.J. Maxx for $14.99 and would grind a partial bag at a time.
This chopper arrived exactly as amazon promised,but I'd bought it earlier than I needed, as I'd bought it to puree and chop homemade baby food for my grandson,he is just at the right age now,so I decided to give this chopper it's first practice run yesterday to chop a few walnut halves to go into the scones I was making....first buzz was fine......there was NO second, third or any other buzz.....
Love this elegant glass mug for my tea !
These glasses are just right if you want one glass for either white or red wine. Libbey glasses in general have usually held up to everyday usage so I chose them based on the brand.
This oven is better that the GE big oven in my kitchen and takes 15% less time and probably 30% less electricity.
In the unlikely event that you're not familiar with body pillows, these pillows are about as long as an adult body , and provide support to the head and neck at the top and to the knees and legs lower down.
I purchased this pan as a 'tester', as I had suffered way too many disappointments in previous cookie sheet purchases (even the air-bake pans disappointed me).
(My drive is about 45 minutes).They also hold way more than the store bags and are VERY sturdy .
I wouldn't suggest you leave the spoon / lifter in the pan while cooking, rather set them on a plate or dish on the side between stirs.
Anyway, he doesn't like covers that make noise when he moves.
The motor also seems to get very hot --maybe I got a dud and just don't know it.
The water that collected during cooking did not drip into the reservoir, but stayed in the rim of the pan.
Generally pretty easy to put together, sometimes the shelves get a bit stuck but you can take off black liner and it will go in then.
I ordered the "sage" color -- it's a soft almost neutral sage/olive green that works well in a lot of palettes.
We purchased 2 of these to use in a temporary home this summer.
so its required little more chopping 'for example its fit 2 big carrots ,but medium to big potato have to be split ,and if you don't mind to cut cabbage on smaller chunks - cole slow became a breeze, Does very well for puree, shredding - very good even slicing ,but potatoes wouldn't be round ,unless using small ones.
I am a intermediate level cook.
Cleaning any loose leaf/grind product can be problematic, this one is no more difficult.
As far as operation, I wish the pot itself was deeper , as several un-popped kernels get knocked out as the popping starts.
I don't know how the stainless steel handle will hold up over time (the description shows 18/10, but the actual product doesn't say).
I've been using OXO Pop Canisters for quite a while .
I also have a very finely ground gourmet tea which would also go right through the typical screen (round).
I like the fact that the boards are three different sizes , for example, no sense getting a large cutting board dirty if you're just going to cut some cheese, while the larger boards come in handy for cutting fruit and vegetables.
The fork is pretty flimsy and doesn't really fit on the lid, so I don't use that part.
This Panasonic vacuum (which is excellent, by the way) came with two vacuum bags, but I thought from the quality materials and construction of the bags that it wasn't going to be cheap to keep the house vacuumed.
Perfect replacement after I broke the original decanter for my FT series coffeemaker.
I put eight 4-place dinner settings, 3 wire whisks, a large can opener, tongs, peeler, 4 sharp knives, a big strainer ladle, measuring spoons, basting brush and more in it.
The curtain itself, when paired an inexpensive liner , makes a nice upgrade to one's bath, and if it proves truly washable, then its value is cinched.
I use these mylar bags to buy in bulk at Sam's Club and Costco, then store it in mylar with an O2 absorber to give the product long shelf life .
My favorite use is for cleaning out colanders .
This light melamine bowl is so easy to handle because it HAS a handle and you can scoop or stir with your free hand.
One of my ove gloves was getting ratty and old and i tossed it .
We've had this kettle for a few years now and we are ready for a divorce.
I put on perfume by it and the smell sensor goes way up and it cranks up, the dogs run by it and the particle indicator goes up and it turns on .
Over the years I have become a fan of most America's Test Kitchen recommendation and a fan of this pan I am.
Knowing they are NOT leak-proof reminds me to keep them level till frozen then can be store any which way to keep till I need a meal.
I love it .
We wrapped the crumb/drip tray in foil to make cleaning even simpler.
I have a favorite recipe for sugar cookies my mom has made since I was a kid but the dough is much too thick and better suited to old-fashioned cookie cutters .
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.
Whisper quiet , they are able to heat an average size room to the point of discomfort within a short period of time.
It has a very modern, sleek look that I find very appealing.
(Let's face it: for big jobs, it's easier to just get the big guns, like my Dyson DC65 Animal Complete Upright Vacuum Cleaner .)
16 ounces is probably fine for most people but I prefer 20-24.Now, the manufacturer warns you not to use this cup for carbonated drinks because it seals so well, the pressure will build up significantly.
While this does make a very nice key rack, that's not what I got it for.
This is an inexpensive alternative to the higher priced French ovens .
Note; thick/plush ones quite expensive, hard to hold & use, hold too much water/suds, although look great just to show them off, and fluff gives poor scrubbing.
However, I have been putting it in the top rack of my dishwasher nearly every day for 6 months, and it is still in perfect condition.
It blends just as nicely as the ~$100 Cuisinart I previously had, but it is nothing close to the Vitamix 5200 it is temporarily replacing.
My AC unit was weighted on the left side so I had a bit of difficulty balancing the weights just right so that the plank carried most of it instead of the window, and it took me about 2 tries...
With two cats, little messes-- litter, catnip, fur, food --are inevitable, but hauling out the big vac is more of a production than I can usually be bothered with.

I didn't expect it to be warped beyond repair because it was banged with a stick , but it was.
I do my home once a month , with some manual touchups in the kitchen.
These spoons are super long .
It does require some minor assembly, and if you don't want to take it apart to re-box it, have some storage space planned for it. I think it is a wonderfully whimsical product that is worth the money.
Unlike the cheapies out there, I've had no issues with opening or closing the closet door .
The magnet is -barely- strong enough, and leaves scratches on my stainless hood .I've tried a bunch of different digital kitchen timers, and this one has stuck around longer than most.
It can whip together a light batter AFTER it's been all mixed and incorporated, but it certainly cannot cream butter and sugar, and I wouldn't dream of trying to whip cream with it.
The wood one is too thick and although its tapered nicely to retrieve the pies it usually has a problem placing the pie on the Stone .
Sometimes I'd just use a plate I didn't feel like crawling under counters, looking for lids.
Faster than a microwave, this kettle brings water to a boil so quickly, you'll be amazed.
I use Amazon for most of my purchases and update my reviews if anything changes with the products.
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.
Yeah, it sounds obvious, but I was worried about the " uncontrolled " speed getting the best of me.
Look, the Cuisinart SS-300 Single Server Brewing System is great - if you are the only one using it.
I like these spatulas for their handles .
It tells the temperature of any piece of meat I have on the grill .
I used a label maker to put the names on the bottles and put them in alphabetical order to make it easy and quick to find what I need.
The Maeva Universal Filter 2 pack is a great alternative to buying the Brita replacement filters because they just don't need presoaking.
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.
It has a solid metal construction and a chrome finish, with options for hanging it over a door or directly mounting it to a wall .
Not too much .
I was just about ready to send it back when I went on line and read about when it does that to push the valve down in the bottom of the water tank .
That's all that needs to be cleaned (except occasional wipe down, vinegar to decalcify, etc.).If you want to use a short mug, it will splatter.
We decided to purchase this attachment for use on the carpet.
This item really works and simplifies removing skins from garlic cloves -- often a tedious job.
These are dishwasher safe, however I recommend putting them in the bottom rack and using a little bit of JetDry with your cycle just to make sure they get fully cleaned and sparkle.
These are grill worthy but seem like they might have trouble with heavier items like large chicken breasts , though I have not done a test of this.
I used them for my spices, and unlike another reviewer, found they perfectly fit a U.S. standard size spice jar (e.g., McCormick's).
I may order another to put away until my current pan has to be replaced.
This might be a little pricey at first glance, but it is very well-made of quality material and does its job perfectly with no flaws, making it worth the $30 price point in my book.
This brewer is functionally the Platinum B70 Keurig brewer .
Now THIS model has also STOPPED WORKING after about a year!
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.
Ok, so ' Thermos ' has long gone beyond being a simple brand name; most users now think of any generic insulated metal beverage container as a 'thermos' -
Do be aware that this is 100% poly , which should not come as a shock given the price.
I now keep everything in these large glass jars , flour, sugar, coffee, chocolate chips, corn meal, etc.
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).
This vacuum has got to have the strongest suction of any cleaner ever made.
I just like:1)not having the screaming jet engine noise of the thermal popcorn poppers.2)not having an extra appliance around.
Best feature is its safety and non off gassing and non oxygen depleting features.
the eggplant color, so ordering from Amazon was the way to go and the price was good.
The first is that while it does fit in the refrigerator, it's a little too tall .
space between each rail on the individual racks are a bit small, but manageableoverall, nice product
that empty it's a bit top heavy .
My last kettle scared the dog with its shrillness .
I use this fan constantly when I am at home, especially for white noise to block out other noise in the home and for sleeping soundly.
Priced right, works exceedingly well , cleans up very easily.
As with all food processors there are safety features and you must line up the bowl and the shoot and lock before activating food processor .
The design is so very simple yet so very elegant yet the glass is nice and thick.
I bought this one for my daughter as a wedding gift. It was on her gift registry at a chain store.
We opted for the Kitchenaid mixer and Calphalon cookware, and decided to skimp on the blender, figuring a blender is a blender and what difference would it make?It makes a big difference.
I got the hooks and the black liner here at amazon.com , could have gotten the shower curtain, too, but I didn't know it was here and I had already ordered the curtain from walmart.com.
The Aroma rice cooker has also a up to 10-hr timer setting.
The only possible negative is its size makes it hard to store in a utensil drawer .

The rubber-like contact piece that gives the airtight seal is removable and cleanable.

Not only is it the SAFEST opener I've ever used but fast, clean and quieter .
I guess I didn't anticipate how difficult it would be to transfer the grounds into the espresso thingy .
But, every latte was horribly weak - problem is the steam wand.
I use it several times a day .
Purchased these to use as cleaning cloths.
Essentially, I there $40 down the drain and my kids , who love waffles, are going to be devastated.
Controls are simple, easy to set, but a remote control would be a seriously good addition.
Then I got another one that was a disaster: also got ugly weeks into its tour of duty.
Overall, I'm disappointed, and was expecting something more feasible for the DIYer , and I just don't think this is it.
I think these scissors are OK for the price($20 July 2013 ).
We have the Caphalon Pots & Pans, these were a natural addition to our set to make sure our Pots & Pans investment would last!http://www.amazon.com/Calphalon-Unison-Nonstick-10-Piece-Cookware/dp/B0028S7R58/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_topThese Nylon Utensils protect our cookware, they are very durable, wash well in dishwasher or by hand - (no spotting / falling apart as other reviewers have stated).
The picture shows two pizzas in the oven, but even with the convection on, the one on the bottom will not cook in the same time as the one on the top. I've never used the rotisserie, as it says it will take 4 hours to cook a chicken.
I make fruit shakes that have frozen fruit, including a cut-up frozen banana, and the blender blends it all pretty well.
Oh, and the remote rocks! It should be a crime to sell an window AC unit without a remote.
The racks are great for what they're intended to do, they are not a cure-all for every "spice cabinet need", use them accordingly and you'll be happy with your purchase.
I noticed that one of the reviews mentioned the underside of the top was unfinished .
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.
It's nice to purchase things on Amazon , because they make it easy to send back!
I worry that my simple old two-knife shredder will wear out so I purchased this item as a backup.

Not only do these BedVoyage sheets look great but the super soft feel is fabulous!

No such thing as a quick juicing before work -- you'll be spending 10 mins trying to get it to lock in place then 20 mins trying to clean up.overall, I find this machine difficult to work with.
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.
A friend's girlfriend bought a 450 dollar vitamix and all I would hear about was smoothie this and we grind up avocado seeds in them and blah blah blah.

The latches work well, it has never come open.
We (coonasses) live in Louisiana and love too cook, these pots once seasoned, cook great and last forever ...

The only thing that keeps me from giving this 5 star is not REALLY a problem with the rod but my bathroom .
They tend to nick when I'm washing the dishes and accidentally bang them against one another.
I wasn't wild about the crazy colors , but as knives go, they are really good.
I just finished using my almost new Hoover Tempo Widepath U5140-900 (on sale $59 excellent value)to clean the fine remaining ash in my fireplace , my previous bag would have allowed the fine particles to escape... this bag did not - Kudos!
I have owned this pan for 1 week .

The package recommended that I lightly dust the mold with cornstarch but I used powdered sugar instead, with great results.

It is perfect for warming them in the microwave and keeping them warm through the meal.
I have all of the Hario product line for coffee-making.
The last three items I purchased via AMAZON have the same problem.

I love the VRT juicer .
When I decided to do a through cleaning at home (moving all the furniture, lifting the bed ), I knew I needed something other than my standup vac (which is very powerful but lacks vac tools).

I have been using this wok for several weeks and I really like it.

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.
For me the biggest, though very minor, inconvenience is that you can't pour coffee until the brewing cycle is complete .
I like steel bottles because they are clean and add no flavor.
I love that it has 3 temperature options, that it gives you the option of warm milk without the foam, and that you can walk away from it while it's doing its thing.
We were quite impressed with its capabilities in making a great mudslide; although there were still tiny ice chips in the drink, the blender did quite well in mixing everything very smoothly and with a minimum amount of noise (for a blender anyway).I was able to find one of these wonderful blenders refurbished through Amazon .
This product works very well for my white cast iron sink.

While it may sound silly, the black rubber in the middle really does improve grip substantially.

I was excited about the shape of this water pitcher since my Brita pitcher took up so much valuable space in my refrigerator and this one does not.
Then one day I accidentally bumped it with my shoulder while passing the fridge (I store the device on the fridge door) and the magnet failed to hold it and it fell around five feet to the kitchen floor.
Since I got this in the mail , I've made all sorts of stuff - fish/oyster courtboullion, pancakes, hoecakes, a seared steak (Yum!), even a cake!

Half gallon of milk fits great.
I was worried about this set as I had ordered it without reading reviews (something I rarely, rarely do but I was leaving town and on my way out the door)
The good news is that amazon gave me some of my money back-so I just took the hardware off the one set to match it up at the hardware store.
My son is very into being a "big boy" and definitely feels like one with his new Thomas lunchbox.
This cooker does all of that plus can let you slow-cook veggies as well.
This Thermos keeps the water at least cool all 10.5 hours I'm at work (it does go from cold to cool as the day gets long but it's still cool enough)
This non-abrasive, smooth paste instantly shines up copper and removes even tough stains almost effortlessly.
It looks good on the kitchen counter and is easy to fill .Olive oil comes out In a perfect stream and after using , no drips down the sides, because of the design of bottle.
The lid is the same size as my other one, which makes it convenient. As of today, I can vouch for the sturdiness - I knocked it off the countertop, and it hit the un-carpeted floor with a thud, but had no damage.
I used it without muffin paper cups ...and it worked great.
As the pictures show, you can give it to someone with a bottle of wine in it, then they can use it to collect their corks in.

Two sides of this pan are raised which makes it so easy to pick-up while the other sides are flat making it easy to remove baked food.
I have ordered and returned several toasters because they did not toast evenly across the slice.
I particularly like the thinness and strength of the blade .
I tried the little face towels first just to make sure I was getting something I would like before I invested in the full set.
These tongs would be most useful for very thin items, like slices of meat or cheese .
My Pur filter is much longer and I would assume contains more of the filtering material; it also twists and locks into place.
I'm not one for rave reviews but I've been pounding on this thing every morning for two years and it's held up great.
This does an excellent job of evenly grinding coffee without the noise of an electric burr grinder, although I would not use it instead.
I am happy .

I have never owed mixing bowls a day in my life so by far this set is nice!

This company sent me this by mistake, I had ordered an espresso machine , anyways they let me keep it at no charge.
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.
They would sell a million of them .
Wish it came with a tube extension (it only comes with one that's about 2 feet long)

The best part is the stain and wrinkle resistance of the fabric .
I have used the big, round Honeywell purifiers for many years.
I am still blown away at how much it can hold and how light it is .
The one thing that threw me off is how thin this thing is - extremely cheap materials.
After using a Cuisinart for a year, it lost it's umph, I switched to the KitchenAid and have not regretted one moment.
By the way the hand tool sprays wide and so is difficult to control.
Not too loud , just normal for a vacuum.

One of the pluses when it comes to using these on an induction stove-top is that they are constructed so that the heat will travel up the sides of the pans also, thus making your induction cooking even more efficient.
My biggest complaint about French presses is they are not insulated and the coffee cools too quickly.
If used on a flat surface, it would make it rock back and forth .

I felt as if I was wrapping myself in a blanket when I walked out of the shower!
I use these knives all the time, they stay sharp for a long time and I really abuse my kitchen utensils from all the use they get.
What's more, shop the various suppliers on the Amazon site as I got these 4 beauties for around $11 total!

a patina that will serve to protect the pot in much the same way as seasoning a cast iron skillet.
You just have to figure out how much water to add by trial and error because some rice varieties need more water and some less.
Our only problem was that we lost the little clear cap that goes over the large lid (the one you can take off while it is blending to add ingredients).
I love that it holds 16 oz , so I can enjoy a couple cups and also that it is 100% BPA-free.
Unless it's impossible to figure out the equation- that'd be up to the great mathematicians and scientists to discover!

Better than my Miele , more handy than my robotic vaccuum ever was.

Ordered 3 days ago, got the idiotic replica which for some reason has no slant whatsoever (one would think even the people making the knockoffs would recognize the overall purpose of the thing.)
It's good for its intent - as a pie carrier. I suppose that this is nice for things like picnics, informal get-togethers, etc., but if you're really going to a fancy holiday party, this guy just WON't be appropriate.
The automatic lid works as promised (although I'm not sure if the manufacturer's representation about how long this product will last based on how many times the automatic lid will open on average in a given day makes a whole lot of sense; on average, my trash can's lid opens and closes dozens of times a day).The body of the can feels a bit thin, so throwing in a heavy item right after changing the bag may eventually cause dents in the can.
I recently renovated my kitchen so needed a sponge holder to place a plastic one which was really gross even though I scrubbed it weekly.
The handle on the pot does not get hot, but the handle on the lid sure does.

Just hand wash (and if you have hard water dry with a cloth right away) and keep some bamboo oil on hand and your set for a loooong time!
It always makes quite a mess on the counter but I haven't looked for another product because this one does it's job of grinding beautiful aromatic coffee so well!
It's a very nice holder - not too big and not too small .
I bought this unit mainly for grinding dry spices .
My other infuser is a plasticy mesh that lets no leaves through.
The pan has a nice weight .
Installing this air conditioner is a big project.
So I have confined mine to use in the microwave where they work perfectly.
I decided to live with the damage as it would be too costly to return it and take my chances on a new one, which could be damaged even more.
Be aware that the first few rotations around the mixing bowl, the beater will squeak until there is enough lubrication on the rubber for it to glide around smoothly, and it will do this pretty much every time.
I find it to be a pain in the neck to clean .
Holds half a dozen drinks or three drinks and a small plate.
I received one as a souvenir gift from an Alaskan cruise .
The Fannie Farmer Cookbook (edition published in 1979 ) looks quite promising, as does this one:Frozen Delights
And the best part of all, they are so affordable .
The dispensing end is on the top so no annoying crumbs on table or cabinet.
I mention this not as a negative that it broke (because that's my fault) but that I bought another one from this company rather than a cheaper one, not that many are cheaper .I like this one because the mesh at the bottom forms such a good seal that very little of the grinds make their way past it.
I am a small to medium sized female w/ skinny arms, but this skillet is not too heavy
At first the blender was fairly quiet and then as time went by it got louder and louder until I had to wear ear plugs to use it.
It comes with a K-cup reusable filter and a measuring spoon for those who like to use their own ground coffee!Equipped with an almost spray like dispenser, the Breville is quiet and works like a dream.
We have a puppy who would knock the trash can over constantly, and we didn't have a lid for it.
No spills on the way to work as it is partially frozen, and the 2 cup amount is below the max fill line on the metal insert.
Loved the blender but the motor died within 6 months.
The little circle ball you see is a storage area for the one whisk your not using, it's a very cute design touch.
Sweet! I've tipped this thing over on my desk with the flip top sealed over the straw and only a couple drops came out , not a drop even hit my desk, only wet the sides of the lip a bit.
Granite counters have taken a toll on my glassware and so, being down to a mis-matched 6 or so remaining, I was torn between plastic ( cheesy )
I am very sure that the 24 oz Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker from Natural Revolution Ltd will not disappoint you.
The coffee pitcher broke, could not get a replacement.
If you use those drink mixes, especially the Crystal Light packages, I would go with the 20 oz. Just easier to fill and mix with that little extra few ounces .
This isn't the first product that I've purchased based on the strenght of Amazon reviews , but it is the most "gimmicky."
While this cuts fairly well and hand washes easily, my only concern are that all body components are plastic .
Great cooktop for the price and we use it almost everyday for something and it has been a workhorse.
My biggest issue is learning how to use the whole piece of fruit or vegetable I am trying to slice.
I now have a large and small container to use with my new Vitamix.
It is fantastic; solid,and so easy to just push the button and let it do all the work.
The new Breeze features have changed a little but so far I have had no problems.
You just need to be sure you have the oil collection container in place
Also, make sure to slice it down the middle or in strips across the top, the top strips work better for me, this is to let it expand properly when cooking.
It held a variety of dishes and kept them cold for several hours. I put just 1 large bag of ice in the boat.
(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 .
have had this beautiful skillet for about a month now and at first food just slid off it amazingly well but even in such a short period of time it has lost its non-stick quality and now requires scraping when trying to remove food.
This is a great 3qt saucepan !
One year into using the unit, the hinge of the lid started to loosen off , but the lid still works.
The base firmly attaches to most flat surfaces via a suction cup , which is nice because it can be positioned over our sink to catch the peels.
With a little ham, a sausage patty , or two strips of cut up bacon and a slice of cheese, one can enjoy a better sandwich than can be found at the local hamburger place.
Sometimes I forget which knifes I used to cut smelly onions or other smelly foods...
I think that the bins should also be larger for both the solution dispenser and the dirty water collector, often times I haven't even finished one room before I have to refill the solution.
I like that it fits in the door of my fridge (I have a standard size US fridge).
UPDATE:SO - it's over 2 years later, and my bargain salad spinner is still one of my favorite kitchen gadgets.
This rack is okay, but not great .
Gotta send this back , maybe if you buy one, you'll have better luck, but I'm not taking the chance.
It does take about 4 minutes to make 2 shots worth of coffee for my AeroPress.2.
I've also used it to slice cookie dough and it works great .I like the handle a lot.
Since these units were advertised as " whisper quiet " this wasn't acceptable.
All I will need is an additional memory chip and win 7 .
It is small, but it controls the heat in the oven perfectly and bakes cookies like no other pan I have used.
There's also one 4mm slicing blade and a medium shredding blade (it's detachable stem fits either).Locking System: Here's where the PPP shines! :-)
This is a great little vacuum for the price.
I have tried a few things with great success (amazing job of doing julienne strips on a zucchini ), and other that were complete flops (just squished a very ripe tomato I tried to slice).
I've used these now for about 2 months now.
I have 4 children and have had this for 3 months now.
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 .
The cool thing is that it really insulates the room nicely it keeps my sleep area cool and it prevents my living area from getting cold
The top has a nice "P" and "S" on the top brass node to distinguish which is which on eyesight.
Great pans, if properly cared for, will live on long after you and I are gone!
I bought two more for my daughters .
I had been tossing the lids into boiling water and then trying to get them out with either tongs , or the magnetic wand - that resulted in a lot of frustration and burned fingers.
I own a Wusthof 7 -Piece knife block set
Perhaps with consistent use it will be better.
The snowy white plates give you a blank canvas for all of your culinary creations.
Actually even let our horses drink beer out of them (so funny) but these glasses stand the test of time...
Less sticking, less deformation of a sticky dough creation.
This pillow case is very soft and cool to touch, at least for several hours at a time...was looking for the coolest pillow case I could find, and this tops all of them thus far....fits my standard size pillow, but will "turn" on pillow sometimes as I toss and turn, which happens to most cases I use....could do without the frilly floral design, but that might appeal to some....I'd like to see this pillow in solid color and King size as well.
I assisted in the decoration of a wine and cigar lounge in my hometown.
The Enviro pads were quite awful.
I can get all kinds of wrinkles out of my clothes with relative ease, and it's so much easier to fill with water and to put away (retractable cord) than past irons that I've owned (B&D;, Sunbeam).My previous iron was a Black & Decker Digital Advantage which was an awesome iron, indeed, but it did not have the detachable water tank, nor the retractable power cord.
This vacuum is lightweight and pulls up lots of dust and fuzz.
Function is most important , with aesthetics a close second.
I folowed the instructions and found that the coffee was very weak so I experimented with differint grinds and filter no filter.
I've been using these trays for about 3 months so far and have not noticed any chemical odor on the tray or the ice cubes.
This queen size wooden rack is just right!
This is " guaranteed for life ", though I'd hardly expect I'd ever make a claim unless it died within the first year or so.
If it's a squared corner, get this !
For "leaky" items like apple sauce, canned fruit, veggie dip, etc., I just put a little Press-n-Seal over that compartment .
Easy - there is no full indicator .
I used the Dyson mini turbine tool on my fur niture and thought it did pretty good, except I had to keep stopping to remove wound up fur.
I bought this bread machine because I was really tired of buying bread at the store that listed ingredients on the bag that were about as long as the white pages.
The stainless steel exterior and slightly different design is the most visible difference.
Every kitchen needs at least one silicone baking mat.
The cord is made so short in their effort to make it "safe" that it presents it's own hazard.
In fact I used it once again to prepare our Fourth of July barbecue inside the house as the wind was blowing.
The feet on this appliance are very sticky which I suppose is a good thing for most people
However, when I went to slice an onion with it I found that the blade was too thick to do so.
Most of the rest is mixed 2 to 1 with frozen strawberry puree and sugar to taste and then drunk.
I especially appreciate the fact that the containers are not only stackable, but fit into one another minimizing storage space .
The legs have a white emamel finish , easy to keep clean and free from dust.
I love that these reusable straws are made of silicone (vs. metal)
It has a classic chrome look that will appeal to the aesthetic of most home kitchen barista environs.
an American sibling.
Since most all of the unit is metal , I suspect it will last for quite some time.
Someone commented that all the parts stored inside might scratch the teflon , so I kept the piece of thin foam that protects the inside.
I often don't purchase things like pans from a company that isn't really all that well known for making pans, but Kitchenaid did a very good job in choosing Meyer for their pans .
I feel the product does what it says it will and does it well and certainly has made our TV room dinner/movie time a much more pleasant experience .
I purchased one of these two years ago then a 2nd unit last year.
AND as an unforeseen added bonus, the bright cheerful yellow color has made it extremely easy for my blind-as-a-bat boyfriend to find.
Anyhow, it's going back immediately .
It is easy to move in tight areas .
I have purchased three of these - one for me and two for friends .
After removing the screws, I found that the yellow battery case lid is glued to the bottom of the case.
I think these pitchers are great.
My 14-slot-tray is Wusthof , and the 7-slot is Victorinox.
I'm about to order my third one of these.
The handle on the lid itself should have been created using a plastic or some type of material that wouldn't absorb the heat thereby creating a hazard.
I never use wooden spoons anymore and anything I have that is silicone, is heat resistant.
When they say solid stainless steel their not kidding.
so I've kicked the Coke habit and have been drinking a lot more water.
I checked consumer reports for well-rated insulated travel tumblers because I was tired of sipping on luke warm to cold coffee when driving.
The max time that can be set at one time is 60 minutes , but as most things are cooked in half that time.
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.
The coffee maker works and it is very stylish.
I'm happy with this little toaster oven .
TEA requires HOT WATER to brew .
Short or dense breads are get better slicing results , but that is not the type of bread my family likes.
a reasonable size so I don't overeat ! ...
I cook every night for a family of 5.
That being said, the bathroom in our new house has nowhere to hang towels near the shower door since the entire enclosure is glass .
For example, you do have to pour in the base quickly and start stirring quickly, or it may freeze in place.
I actually own the Oster 6646 but am writing the review here because the 6646 appears to be no longer caried by Amazon and the 6684 is simply the black version of the 6646.First, the good:
I am a huge fan of Oxo .
I purchased a BXB 10c from Amazon about 3 1/2 years ago.
The 800 watt setting nicely warms my bathroom if I turn it on about 1/2 hour before I go in there.
They fit my oversized King mattress perfectly.
Another of the three would break in half where the tray meets the base each time it was accidentally knocked over in the shower, and eventually I got tired of slotting it back together.
I can now change my cloth tablecloths to match the seasons and can protect them with this plastic tablecloth.
I'm a little concerned about how long the wooden parts will last, they are not varnished, but for now, I'm happy I have a place for my soap, and don't have to worry about getting my sinks messy.***UPDATE***I've only had them a few months and now I have another soap problem, some of the slats have come unglued .
Bought this oven several months ago after our old NuWave gave up the ghost.
I was very impressed with the ingenuity that went into these storage towers .

The timer is good it does not cut the whole unit when done like was stated by another user.made " dounut holes " for a Sunday morning coffee at church.
The STB 101 hand held turbo brush is a must have weapon in the war of pet hair.
This bread pan is exactly what it says.
The forced heat feature also helps with drying.
We have hardwoods which have been a task to clean.
It's not a replacement for an oven thermometer or a probe thermometer, but it's great at what it's designed for - a quick and easy instant read thermometer .
The solid grip bottom keeps the board from sliding all over during use, and the grooves on the edge keep most juices produced by cutting from running off the board and onto the counter.
While it looks nice in the picture, it definitely looks much better in person .
If you want a water-tight seal, use a regular two-piece canning lid because these leak like a sieve; if the two-piece feature really bugs you, hot-glue the flat to the ring .
I use it to harden fondant and gumpaste , it works great.
However, just be cautioned that using the magnet will muffle the loud volume somewhat.
In my opinion, it's worth every penny !
I was just carrying items out of the room and the pepper shaker slipped and flew out of my hand and landed under a chair (no carpet, hard floor)
This topper has made it much more comfy ..
We also looked at the Simple Human brand while in the store, but this Kamenstein paper towel holder looked nicer and appeared to be just as good quality, at half the price.
This fiesta set in Shamrock green is a nice addition to your fiesta dishes.
Got this for a birthday gift for the ultimate "griller" son in law!!!
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.
Easy to use, if you want a cup while its brewing go ahead and get one!, it makes a perfect steaming delicious cup of joe.
If your looking for a great waffle maker try the KitchenAid Pro Line Series Waffle BakerKitchenAid Pro Line Series Waffle Baker .
Great Slicer .
I'm in a tiny RV and got this for the foldaway feature.
remember though sides of metal toasters get a bit hot.
I bought these to use instead of paper plates .
The only thing I would suggest would be to put something on the bottom to make sure it doesn't get knocked off the counter by accident because the bottom is a little slippery and it could chip.
The quilt is definitely over-sized (which I like).
I purchased these glasses as a Christmas gift for my son and daughter in law .
Biggest chore was deciding which of the 18 samples provided best suited my tastes.
so I try to just grind a perfect amount and then carefully dump it into the press .
I can move it easily from one area to another as I need to and the light-weight canvas bags are washable so that is also a plus.
Leightweight, rolled edges not well rolled .
The plastic part will melt if you have a very hot soup and a pot with the bottom still hot.
I like that it's light weight .
The reason this only gets 4 stars out of 5 is because cleaning it takes a little effort .
we bought the twin to not take up too much room and he hasn't complained.
My old Hamilton-Beach (#1) finally bit the dust, so I decided to purchase this one.
Set up and assembly was quite fast and easy .

This is the second Luna Pad that I have purchased for a 2 year old who is in a full size bed.
This does what it does perfectly, but for making several cups of coffee at a time, consider a good electric burr grinder .

I also like the rubber feet on the bottom which keep the unit from sliding around.

We have been using it regularly for several months and the non-stick surface shows no signs of wear.
Just stepping into the empty tub to install by lightly wetting the suction cups and applying pressure it would not stick.
My only criticism is that in the rare circumstance when I'm holding something VERY hot (e.g. a tray fresh from a stove on 400F+ ) for 15+seconds my hands will start to get hot.
I ran aboout 3 tanks of water through it, and left it open overnight (actually two days while I got filters) before making any coffee and there is no plastic taste or smell.
Everything has held up well so far.
Maybe it makes it safer electrically , but I don't have any other small appliances with so heavy a cord.
We normally sweep our floors with a broom , but the vacuum is so much more efficient and is lightweight and easy to handle- particularly for seniors.
All that being said, having owned them about a month now, they pass all the standard checks: sturdy as standard wine glasses, symmetrical, good vertical alignment (not angled base as found on cheap glasses), arrived fully intact ( none damaged/broken).
The only beef I had wasn't really with the glass but the sticker that is put on the bottom of the glass, whew, they took a razor and goo be gone to get rid of the sticker and the glue residue.
I imagine that if you filled the shell and put a top on the pie, squeezing the top with the side along the rim that it would work.
Things like "Never nest the mugs", "Stack pieces carefully with protective felt pads or paper towels between each piece.".
The parts stored include everything from small hardware (screws, nuts, fasteners) to hand tools to wires and even power transformers for small electronics .It's great to be so organized!
and I have a large family
The coffee maker itself is sturdy, well made, fits well on our counters and stylish .
Reheating will not only be simply, the small size prevents the food from becoming over-done and dry .
The room in question is at the end of the system and deposits dust instead of the air and dust going to the return vents .
The color red is awesome and matches nicely with other bright red accents in our kitchen.
Although not as thick as they once were (I think they were a ridiculous 11" thick when I unpacked them), they're still plenty thick and supportive.
I did a lot of research before buying (we just had an expensive DiLonghi coffee maker die after only 14-15 months and they wouldn't stand behind it)In addition to the features, pricing and the fact that it's stainless, our main decision point for this one was the 3 year warranty .
I do not use microwaves and with winter coming it would be great to have hot lunches.
It does include a small, glass pie plate which would be nice if it was a deep dish but alas, it isn't.
I ordered this French press because I wanted to take my drip coffee maker off the countertop to make way for an espresso machine and bean grinder.
The buttons could be bigger, and it's hard to read their labels .
It also has a long hose to get into those smaller areas, the Turbo Tool is great for cleaning furniture and the edge to edge cleaning means it gets right up the edge of where you are cleaning.
It's big, it's beautiful and it the smell reminds me of the beach !
But I don't like purchasing a $3 cup every morning.
I was also having a problem with my #4 filters when making 8 cups in my Gevalia, made by Cuisinart, 12 cup machine.
and I'll say I still love these for the canister and lid mechanisms .
I let the yogurt make all night in this and then strain for about 3 hours in the Euro 2-Qt Gree Yogurt Maker. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0091XNL0I/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1.I eat yogurt every day so usually make a batch and half every weekend.
The second thing that I don't like about this iron is that it shuts off quickly - in about 3 minutes when not being used - and to reheat the iron, you have to push the control button repeatedly to get it to the hottest setting - it takes 10 pushes to get it to the "max" setting on my iron as some of the pushes don't seem to register on the electronic control.
Having the blender beater ( single ) means I can mix dough and beat egg whites or cream separately without cleaning anything in between.
I filled the large-size box to capacity with flannel sheets: two queen flat, two queen fitted & four pillow cases and was able to tightly close the lid.
It does the job, but not very well , in my opinion.
I cannot comment on the longevity as I have only had it a few days .
The coffee is always weak in comparison to our other Keurig machine and it brews about half of a cup or half of the water that you place into the holding tank.
I was nervous about ordering this because the picture shows a small protrusion coming out of where it would attach to the mixer, and my current beater does not have any such protrusion.
I like it for the area I bought it for, but I might move it because it is in fact a little too big for my taste for where I intended for it to go.

It is of good heft (not flimsy) and makes it extremely easy to knead dough or roll out pizza or pie dough to an exact size.
After reading several of the negative reviews, I wasn't sure if I wanted to risk purchasing the Sharp SuperSteam, but considering that the only competing option that I was looking at, was a commercial, 1/4 size convection oven, which received more negative reviews than the Sharp, so the decision on which oven to purchase was actually a no-brainer, Now that my wife and I have been using the oven for a few weeks, I can earnestly say that we are very happy with the decision.
Yes , you have to keep the button pushed in, but it is so not a big deal considering what you get in return (and you get used to it).
I love that it has 3 temperature options, that it gives you the option of warm milk without the foam, and that you can walk away from it while it's doing its thing.
But it made quick work of a couple of carrots for salad and produced a size and texture that were much better to my taste than carrot slices and it's a whiz for cole slaw.
Anyway, it does a great job of pulling out impurities in the water, and the result tastes great.
Keep in mind when ordering, that these racks will hold small glass spice bottles and small to medium-large plastic spice containers .
I not only bought 1 I bought 2 for good measure.
The Bonavita heats quickly and accurately.
Mine do not leak , I know that some others have said theirs did and if that's the case you should return them.

All my shirts that normally slide right off the "satin" padded hangers cling onto these canvas ones perfectly.
No spills .The primary drawback and reason for my 3-star rating is the mediocre insulation.
After using it a few times it is stored somewhere, but have not bothered to look for it as it will not be used again .

It has a solid metal construction and a chrome finish, with options for hanging it over a door or directly mounting it to a wall.

After trying out this chef's knife, I was impressed.

The black one puts out more air than I anticipated; I can feel a breeze at 6 feet .
The controls are simple but they all work, and it warms up FAST .
I use different temps for different coffees and teas.
The best way to clean hard-water deposits is to use 1/4 apple cider vinegar in 3 cups of water; boil contents, let sit, clean with non-scratch pad.
if I put a bottle of water in the frig, everyone would have helped themselves to my cold water.
I dissembled, and removed the blade and plate, replacing it with the plastic spinner in the box , and once I did that, the auger did its job and started pulling the meat through, instead of the vicious plunger stuffing that was needed before.
It seems to conduct heat very well, so things cook quickly -- and the steamer basket is HUGE !
Update: Its been almost 7 months now
If you are really serious about getting frothy milk and other drinks I would recommend that you check out one of those steamers .

Cotton washcloths--4 mixed pretty colors as shown & described.
Grill veggies on them.
We now own a Hoover Wind Tunnel Air and love it.

The only down side is that when they come out of the dryer, they appear wrinkled .
I would suggest keeping it in the box so as not to lose any parts .
The door falls off on the left (Looking at the toaster) side of the oven.
It took my husband and I about half an hour , and I honestly could have done it myself if I had to.
The fan is very quiet , emitting a hum rather than a roar when running at full speed.
I bought this in the hope that it would hold a queen size comforter, 2 standard shams, 2 euro shams and 2 decorative pillows - that's all I wanted it to hold.
It worked well and was durable, but it was sooooo loud .
but I couldn't find a big one .
Seems I need to wait for the parts and then arrange for a service call. And so on.
You need a couple of straight, small screwdrivers to slowly tap open the glue seam much like a diamond cutter uses a tiny chisel to tap cut a diamond.
I did the 2 pass test with this and the older hoover.
I am hoping to send this back, except that I did not save the box !

The ORECK ULTIMATE HANDHELD VACUUM is a wonderful device for getting to awkward locations.

I am going to keep it and do like it very much !
It's too late to send this back! !
I bought this basket a few months ago, and it's great!

Having ground coffee for over 40 years , this is one of the best.
Rated this a 3 because I love the tiny pepper mill but the salt mill , leaves a lot to be desired.
(the equiv of a super large or two medium drinks from mcdonalds or starbucks) I like the fact that I can control sugar and calorie content and switch up flavors.
This popper pops almost all of the kernals in about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes.
Although I thought the lid would look great and keep dust and water from getting on the rolls, the lid has a hole in the center of it for easy on and off, so it kind of defeats the purpose of protecting the TP and again the lid has the ultra shiny chrome ring around the middle and the thin frosted plastic , so it just looks cheap and not well made.
I've tried quitting soda over 15+ times .

This wastes a lot of kernels, but the kernels are super cheap , and I didn't want an air-popper that plugs in, takes up space, and needs constant monitoring*.The bottom of this bowl has some brown spots where kernels burnt a bit (rare, but it happens.
I never had a great place to roll out pie dough ...now I do.
It's like having an espresso machine without having to deal with the milk steamer , which I've never had much luck with no matter how diligent I was trying to maintain them.
Works great , single hand operation is nice.
They fit perfectly , hold as much and never rip.
I have got these peelers for a gift for 3 ppl so far and they all really like itgreat investment...check U tube for more recipes..the lady here having trouble with zucchini ...maybe she picked wrong kind of zucchini ...its got it to be bigger in size for peeler to work best !!!!!!
It arrived only five days later .The unit proved to be very good indeed.
Drying took a little extra time but it emerged from the dryer in great shape with no bunching.
Perhaps I just got a "dud"... also, the plastic on mine has become very sticky .
Again given to Mom who I ask in detail how it working.
This cabinet is very easy to assemble .
We have managed to run the mice back outside (for this winter, at least) where they belong, and because of these jars, my winter pantry remains intact!
This item has the angled head so it gets into corners very nicely which I love.
It fits perfectly; supports my dishes; and I like that it does not rust and does not encourage mold growth by lying flat against the sink.
Only one T-bone can fit on this grill at a time...or two chicken pieces.
This stainless steel bodied rack measures in at 3.6" x 19.2" x 10.6" and features five padded hooks.
That's why the Ozeri Epicurean Digital Kitchen Scale is coming in real handy for my kitchen.
I use the Tortilla Bowls to make all kinds of Food variation Items , Mexican Tostadas, Small Salads and even Desserts.
The design is great .
The intake is smooth plastic, but I suspect it could scar some furniture, or at least leave minor tracks on the surface; it did not on my furniture, but the manufacturer should buffer the end with a brush or felt .
This item has a one year warranty .
It works well, as advertised - the weighted arm keeps napkins secure and only dispenses one at a time when a napkin is pulled.
It is quiet compared to my old one and has a touch pad which I love AND comes with a remote !!
I needed a 10" knife holder to fit on the side of an upper cabinet in the kitchen, and this one was the only 10" I found on Amazon, so I gave it a try.
Years prior, we received a set of knives we had selected in our wedding registry.
If you want a water-tight seal, use a regular two-piece canning lid because these leak like a sieve ; if the two-piece feature really bugs you, hot-glue the flat to the ring.
I ordered these just before Thanksgiving, I did my entire thanksgiving, excluding the turkey , in slow cookers!
Didn't think that this would be a very good vacuum but needed an upright for the small amount of carpeting I have in my new home...
Never have to remember to turn off the stove, this kettle shuts off automatically.
You want the cooker to be able to be regulated and also to keep things warm especially in our family where we have 6 grown children plus their assorted husbands/wives/significant others plus 3 grandchildren!
Works as intended ...I wasn't sure I needed the bigger plate at the top (versus the original), but found out why it's a good thing...less mess lol.
I set the cooker on porridge and set the timer before I go to bed.
Only downsize to me was in the size of the containers .
Having to buy many timers that broke after a short time , I am pleased to say; I am very satisfied with my purchase.
i haven't used it but i like the construction.very sturdy and the coating feels slippery.i see some reviewers feel they don't have to use linersor grease but the manufacturer suggests grease.
The downward pressure from the Topper should be gently absorbed by the paper towel and light fingers pressure .Pull and release topper twice.
There are better alternatives out there and I'm exploring two of them now, the Eko Cup and My Caps.
I love this Panasonic iron !
The herbs thaw almost instantly once ground and exposed to air or heat of food.
More pleasant features are that a bottle cap opener is included, this tool feels great in the hand, it's about the cheapest good quality corkscrew around, and it's good looking.
Every month I rotate the mattress, don't know if have to but old habits die hard.
Its gorgeous .
My husband liked it alot.
I say neutral because I am a total newbie when it comes to steaming clothes, so I really have no idea if these issues are due to my technique, this steamer, or all steamers in general.
Having looked far and wide for affordable platform beds (which were much more expensive - and often difficult to assemble) I went with this basic model... no wood siding, no headboard - but that's ok by me - and for a fraction of the priceIt doesn't look "bad" with just the mattress on it eitherThe mattress fits securely, the frame feels EXCEPTIONALLY strong and secure .
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.
Changed my rating from 5 stars to 3 , should've just bought a new coffee maker.
I just don't like a coffeemaker that's a diva .
We have two Snauzers that live inside, two Siamese and a feral cat that love in to enjoy the fireplace with us on cold winter days
I can leave a roast cooking for 8-10 hours while I'm at work and it's perfectly tender, but retains some texture, the veggies I put under it are perfectly cooked , not mushy at all.
I researched on Amazon , and this one seemed to fit the need.
The first thing we love about Green Earth Wok by Ozeri is the fact that its from nature and helps support greener living.
Also of note, the sliders are all made of plastic .
This heats up the object where the light fells, so better not to use in narrow space ( potential fire hazard ).
I have had two of these from Amazon the first one the base didnt work at all, this one the base is like 90% working... there is a screw you are supposed to attach to the swivel part of the base but if you do it properly it wont swivel, so I left it off and it swivels " good enough".
Also, it would be good for those who have a hard time pushing and pulling a cleaner around .
I'm so glad I thought of looking for hangers on Amazon .
I returned my previous CPT-180 to Cuisinart because of uneven toasting; the customer service was quick and very courteous.
But over time the plastic stems start to bend and create clogs in the block due to repeated use by putting your knives in.
It's disappointing that even after using mineral oil with each use this board it still cracked.
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone .This is just another one of those products that when it's demonstrated by a slick host who has multiple takes to make itlook can appear to be a good product.
I pre-made Grand Flaky biscuits .
I really like the look of the cart so it was what I ordered, regardless of the previous reviews stating it was difficult to assemble .
Also, I still wonder why Zojirushi does not include any rice cleaning bowls, but make sure you grab one to easily wash your rice before cooking!I got mine using the Amazon warehouse for a discounted price and I couldn't really tell "the box was opened and the item was repackaged" since all of the stickers were still on it and it was well packaged.
Let it sit longer than you normally would before un-molding too if not you will lose some of the detail at the bottom of the mold.
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.
Like another reviewer, I liked this tool jar, but found it was not the color pictured ; in particular, it did not match the gold Sorrento canisters and spoon rest that I ordered.
Reason I'm not giving it a favorable review: Very much dislike the fact that the packaging of these Regency liners had two airholes in the plastic wrapping (What for?
I have one in the bathroom and one in the laundry room .
I did go to the hardware store and bought a bottle of Finazzle and that was a miracle!
The set has held up fine, with the exception that two out of twelve bowls have nicked .
I give it 5 big stars .
Makes enough batter for 3 batches of 7 .
The Eureka is very reasonable priced and does a great job.
The way we have it setup, we have a table protector pad and then on top a linen tablecloth, and then finally this plastic tablecloth.
For those of us who can't use a regular shower caddy (e.g. with a claw foot tub) and need to hang something on the shower rod , this works as advertised.
My husband wants his coffee and we are furnishing a small apartment .
This Hario Water Brew Coffee Pot generates a lovely cup of cold coffee.
However, upon putting these one these fit my hands perfectly .
I poured as slowly as I could, but this is more of soaked coffee than drip coffee so my coffee (after repeated tries) tastes as muddy as a camping trip.
I did find it for half the price that was on Amazon so sent it back.
very nice and handy little vacuum, but boy, is it LOUDalso, there appears to be some air that comes out from the back end; so when I'm vacuuming, I notice the air from the back is so powerful as well that it blows away the stuff I'm trying to vacuum!be careful what you vacuum as well, I accidentally let it suck in a toothpick and next thing I know the toothpick came sticking out of the middle of the hose!
My bed is a hand-me-down, and it was firm.
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.
I bought this rice cooker not really knowing what to expect.
The bowl is large enough to hold a lot of lettuce, which is great, but I do wish sectioned parts for the toppings were a bit larger.
I've had no problems using the bowl in the microwave (so far) except that it is hard to handle.
First off, yup, this definitely peels apples and such and does a decent job of that.
I no longer need to worry about surprise wet papers/purses/lunchboxes or melting containers in the microwave.
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!
We have four dogs in our house
It is well designed, very well thought out, easy to use, the lights let you read the water height and amount, and it beeps to tell you that the water has come up to temperature.
I was in need of some new mixing bowls , having a leftover plastic bowl from my mom since college and a very heavy porcelain one.
I was very excited to try out this vacuum .
I bought the box over a year ago and only two lids have been put into use - for jars of my special lotion blend.
The one I bought a few years back was called the same thing, but the metal legs were much stronger and of a heavier metal.
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.
When I removed the THREE fitted covers I had on to keep it protected, and the pillowcase, I found that it had turned yellow and crumbly.
The white color of the rubber blade doesn't leave any marks on our glass, tiles or grout like some of the black bladed ones have in the past.
I resurrected it this afternoon to give it another chance, this time with lemon and lime sorbet.
Having said that, I have large hands , so someone with small hands might find these very large.
If you don't have pets and clean your floors regularly a simple spray mop would probably be more convenient or you might want to purchase something like this just to make sure that you truly wash away all the dirt every now and then.
I actually own the Oster 6646 but am writing the review here because the 6646 appears to be no longer caried by Amazon and the 6684 is simply the black version of the 6646.First, the good:
My experience with this type of products is spend a little more and it will last, so overall, I like it .
I ordered this basket because I wanted a decorative way of keeping all my cosmetics by my couch so I can take my make up off while watching tv in the evening, before bed.
I always clean right after using to avoid anything getting crusted on.
It has a dial to adjust to various surfaces and works well on all carpet thicknesses as well as bare floors .
I've tried it several times, and the high heat zone is simply too small to allow cooking with any reasonable amount of food.
Good for measuring cold as well as heat .
Finally, an original thick Oster gasket as advertised and/or pictured.
I bought this only 2 and half months ago and have used it maybe 4 or 5 times (I mostly only iron when I sew and I have been too busy to sew lately).
The interior wide mouth funnel easily sits on a jar with no wobbling, while the exterior hangs outside of the jar .
I purchased one of these two years ago then a 2nd unit last year .
OK, so I jumped on the K Cup Brewer bandwagon for about 2 months .
So you can see what I am not in love with cleaning my floors .
The mini dehumidifer is sufficiently small and lightweight to use in any room.
This makes wonderfully delicious, rich, flavorful coffee that is not bitter.
This one is great, with the strainer that comes with it.
For that, it is perfect- covers the deep mattress well, seems to be resistant to liquids seeping through, and isn't too "plastic" feeling (has a nice, thin terry cover).
It is a pretty mold but for those making CP soap in it I recommend you do a couple of batches of re-milled soap first just to get the "bleeding" out of the way or making red soap first few batches.
The magnet on the back is robust enough to hold the heavy body weight up on the kitchen door or a metal panel.
I've used the dough option for making fresh dough for pizzas and rolls and artisan breads .
I purchased it to go with a few other odd sized Farberware pieces I was given and it matches perfectly !
The lit offers high quality equipment for a starter kit or a beer veteran looking for an upgrade.
I purchased both the Pyrex measuring spoons and Pyrex measuring cups.
The 4-1/2 quart size is perfect for our small household, perfect for use as a Dutch Oven, and a true Best Buy in the Creuset line.
4.7 starsThis is a good cheap cooking thermometer.
Looking at newer toaster ovens I've noticed that most are too large and bulky .I loved this toaster oven and am seriously considering getting another since I was so happy with it for so long.
Poking around on Amazon I came across this Pie Crust Maker and figured for around $5.00 bucks its worth a shot.
They come out of the dryer very soft and about as crease-free as can be.
The grind size was always inconsistent , no matter how many beans I put in the grinding bowl.
The container holds 64 ounces , so you can make smoothies for more than one person at a time if you want to.
It's sturdy and can hold a decent amount of weight in it .
2013 . has held its air since dec. and it is now march.
It is very sharp and has a great curve to it that helps to rock it across the pizza .
I bought two of these mugs, one with a handle, one without.
We had previously used a "cold air" humidifier but it made the room too cold
They keep my hands cool and have a good grip because of the silicon strips in the mits themselves.
This press fits my 10 1/2" cast iron skillets PERFECTLY.I am a loyal Amazon customer, I love their return policy and their customer service .
Holds everything including soda and packs of water and then the rest of your items...
In the picture, the hamper stands perfectly straight but 2 of the folding creases on are along the left and right wall so the minute some dirty clothes go in, the sides pop out at the fold, which runs vertically down the middle of the left and right walls, and the hamper starts to bulge and lose its rectangular form .
I used White Cat Corn popcorn, so perhaps it's a cut above, because everything popped.
I'm actually going to use mine to hold cleaning supplies , 'cause I always worry about them leaking a little bit and damaging my lovely wood vanity.
On the rare occasions when the temperature gets below freezing, I cover the equipment with a couple of mover's pads and, up to now, put a contraption with four incandescent light bulbs on it under the cover.
For our wedding registry, we chose this Colorwave set.
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'm getting rid of it .
The difference is that the paper is a little wider than 12" .
I had one that was collapsable and shaped kind of like a tennis racket and I loved it
I really like that the lid is spring loaded so when you open it, it stays open and doesn't flop down while you are drinking and bash you on the nose.
The downside was that it is pretty big compared to most other basters I have owned and a bit awkward to use.
We hate that the CO2 and the bottles are sooooo expensive, and have solved the CO2 problem with another product.
So, I decided to try this pillow out given the positive reviews and both my spouse and I have been engaged in convert pillow switching since it arrived.
The dough that squeezed out actually baked on the stone and was like eating crust when I tried a little taste (not too bad, actually).With the bread completely baked, the lid slid off with no problem even though it was under a bit of pressure from my overloading.
I wish the chute was a little bit bigger.
I don't think this will be the last vacuum cleaner you ever buy, but it will do you well for a few years .
I do not like this sifter at all because it starts out sifting while using the spring action handle and then it stops sifting after a few pulls and you end up having to shake the sifter to get the flour out.
I ordered this basket because I wanted a decorative way of keeping all my cosmetics by my couch so I can take my make up off while watching tv in the evening, before bed.
After years of trying different typical metal infusers that didn't work that well for some of my herbs, I decided to give this one a shot.
The only problem I had was my smoke detector kept going off when I used "broil" I learned to overcome this problem by using the lower rack instead of the suggested top rack.
Though a bit on the expensive side this drying rack works great.
I love oxo products , with the exception of their plastic.
This is definetly the most Beautiful Toaster I have ever seen, a Bright Candy Apple Red .
Pop the cork on your favorite Merlot .
While it is muli-functional; 2 biggest irritatiosn are:- it has to be plugged out - i cannot just press a button for it to stop heating.
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.
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.
I ended up buffing as much as possible off the hot stone and then putting a thick layer of cornmeal on the stone since my family was eagerly awaiting their dinner, but I wasn't happy.
The only cheaper French press of decent quality is Ikea'sUPHETTAmodel, but that one is nominally 32 oz. , a bit smaller in capacity than Bodum's 34 oz. carafe, and has a slightly less effective, coarser screen filter.
It only says to work your way around the device pressing suctions in a row .
I filled the large-size box to capacity with flannel sheets: two queen flat, two queen fitted & four pillow cases and was able to tightly close the lid.
I ordered these sheets and must say was a bit surprised at the thinness of them, esp to be 1500 thread count.
I think for the pricing difference this less expensive Pillow Rest Queen air mattress is the better choice than the more expensive Flocked mattress.
After looking over all of the available food scales on Amazon , I decided that the EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale seemed like the best choice.
They are the perfect width for drying pasta .
I wrap the block in a layer of paper towel and press it... tightening down the screws a little at a time.
I got the wrong size , initially, as did at least one other reviewer of this item.
a BHA-free solution for this.
a second heater to be used in other areas of my home.
The price was great and after 6 months of daily morning and night use it has held up very well.
This is the "best buy" blender recommended by Cook's Illustrated .
We have the Caphalon Pots & Pans, these were a natural addition to our set to make sure our Pots & Pans investment would last!http://www.amazon.com/Calphalon-Unison-Nonstick-10-Piece-Cookware/dp/B0028S7R58/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_topThese Nylon Utensils protect our cookware, they are very durable, wash well in dishwasher or by hand - (no spotting / falling apart as other reviewers have stated).
It's disappointing and bothersome to buy two gifts when one starts to fall apart and the other is broken from day one .
The lightweight, double-walled borosilicate glass mug keeps your tea warm, while the included tea bag buddy makes squeezing the bag much less uncomfortable (no more burning fingers) and gives you a place to put it for the time being.
I could not get to it without taking apart the entire machine .I was very happy today when I put it in the dumpster.
I've used it to carry 10 inch diameter pies without any problems, so don't be put off by the "9 inch pie plate" specification.
I recently bought a nice ( red ) KA stand mixer which came with a dough hook, paddle and whip.
I looked for the one I bought but I couldn't find it as I purchased it at the outlet and they did not carry them any longer.
The coating is not sprayed as with other pans, so it is a bit thicker in places.
I've since learned the trick to not breaking them is to avoid twisting the stem/base while drying the glass.
The bottom piece impresses a dimple into the burgers, so they cook more evenly and don't puff up in the middle.
I have used a Vitamix in the past (one of their top of the line with lots of settings, etc.)
My only concern is that it seems very light weight and possibly easy to "break" unless handled carefully.
I ordered this product from United Vacuums .
Instructions are sensible and simple , and most are affixed to the can itself.
What a shame having to throw away an almost brand new heater in the trash !
I purchased it to go with a few other odd sized Farberware pieces I was given and it matches perfectly !
Nothing says redneck like mason jars, except maybe duck tape.
so it's pretty indestructible ( I've dropped it a couple of times and it barely dented ).
I received the package with a few cracks in some of the plates but getting the replacement was fairly hassle-free.
Doesn't seem to burn the coffee when left on the burner for several hours.
(My drive is about 45 minutes ).They also hold way more than the store bags and are VERY sturdy.
No assembly needed just take it out the box, set up the feet and turn the knob at the top to open the arms.
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.
I have the freedoms to use the mini canister vac for quick kitchen, or to extend to my volume ceiling, without having to drag around the bulk of the big vac.
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.
Secondly, contrary to previous poster, we need to set it at five to get toasted browned bread.
I bought 2 CAI Tylose Powder a few months ago .
Well over a year's worth of solid performance doesn't seem unreasonable for $15 , so although we'd be happier if it were more durable, we like the way it works otherwise and I don't see any better options so am about to just order one more.
I like having a big heavy duty nonstick pot for pasta and it works great for cooking soups and stews.
The recipes that came with it are fantastic .
My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior, providing both utility and comfort.
The lightweight, double-walled borosilicate glass mug keeps your tea warm, while the included tea bag buddy makes squeezing the bag much less uncomfortable (no more burning fingers)
Its only 2 inches tall so standing big bottles/long brushes doesn't work well.
BUT, just one thing I hated: THERE'S A LITTLE SPACE where the handle meets the blade .
Clean up was easier than easy (I did spray it with vegetable oil first).
Sometimes I would use my hands and have to pick, pick at all the stragglers.
The filters and the turbine get filthy very fast.
That is not an issue for me as I have a glass cooktop , but some might find it very annoying.
It's worth knowing that unlike many scrapers this one relies on being sharp instead of being thin and flexible to scrape.
It has a knob for settings, crumb tray, and looks just like (maybe even better) than the picture.
We have two shedding cats and I did not notice any problems with pet hair gumming up the machine.6) Removable attachment caddy is convenient, and makes the cleaner more lightweight when removed.
After five seconds of that inadequacy, I went and washed the Victorinox knife, and the rest of my slicing was quick, effortless, and flawless.
I am a big fan of this one.
I love baking my own bread and needed something to help me cut the slices evenly.
These come quickly and with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
if I didn't have to empty the water storage container after every use .
My wife and I are pleased with results our favorite is freid catfish and hushpuppies.
I've used it to froth up some regular milk, and have tried it as well with rice milk .
I had no leaking and everything was very well blended .Owned it for one day, no regrets about my purchase.
They cut a zig-zag edge, which helps prevent fraying .
The only problem with that is the that it cooks too hot .
I bought this container after I took vegetable soup in its supermarket container to work, and the lid came loose.
It's a pity because these units DO work well and they are wonderfully compact--why we bought them in the first place.
To sum them all up, this vacuum is hard to maneuver and absolutely will not get into or under small places because the nozzle is too wide and too high .
I know a product should only get 5 stars if I have no dislikes, but this met my requirements for it 100% .
I made the mistake by buying a different brand of coffee maker when my old Braun needed replacing.
a 5 star rating from me.
I use mine as a garbage can in the kitchen and I love it.
It replaced a 10 year old canister model (Kenmore) that never had this much pickup power.
I bought two of these mugs, one with a handle, one without.
My coffee really does seem better at 175F (aeropress).In use though, you have to 'learn it'.
I've used it to cover a pan when frying to prevent splatters , and also as a flour sifter.
I've only had it for a couple days, but I'm sure I've used it at least 10 times since then (I drink a lot of tea , and need hot water for other reasons).It heats water fast, shuts off timely after boil, stays hot.
It did have a bit of a plastic smell at first, but that went away after a few times of just heating up water in it.
Sometimes it is more than a minute after it boils that it decides to turn off.
The rim is comfortable to drink from.- No nooks and crannies on the inside to make cleaning difficult.- The entire bottom half is stainless steel , so my food is not in constant contact with plastic.
We've had this vacuum for about 2 months now and its task is to keep our lower level clean .
While I've made coffee through paper towels in the past, this dripper wouldn't work with that.
Before buying these gorgeous glasses, I read a lot of reviews about how the glasses broke so easily
The lid doesn't lock without the vacuum seal ing, so once it's opened it isn't good for transporting if you're away from home, or moving the liquid left overs from the BBQ back to the kitchen without the threat of spilling.
LOVE:uses plain old tap water, so you don't have to worry about chemicle residuemop pads are machine washable and resusable, so there's no waste and nothing to buyease of use / a real back saver, no scrubbing involved leaves floors cleaner than regular mopping EVER didextremely light-weightmop head swivels which makes getting hard to reach places (around toilet, under furniture)
The 1st one was damaged at the handle but as soon as I contacted Amazon about it, they very promptly (the very next morning) shipped out the replacement press with no problems.
My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior, providing both utility and comfort.
I purchased this item on sale from Amazon for 5.99 each .
It simply cracks spontaneously for no apparent reasonBodum has come out with some presses with a LEXAN clear plastic beaker .These do not break.
It does a wonderful job of imparting fruit flavors while leaving the tea (or other liquid) separate for serving .
I, too, bought this dispenser so that I could easily refill my three cats' bowls each day.
I've only had it for a couple days, but I'm sure I've used it at least 10 times since then (I drink a lot of tea, and need hot water for other reasons).It heats water fast, shuts off timely after boil, stays hot.
And the keep-warm feature is good too -- go back and re-brew your oolong, or make another cup of whatever.
I used my simple SONY HTIB.The product is stong on the bottom so it's not going to tilt over. The extension part is a bit weak.
I was given a set of four Rachael Ray Dinnerware Little Hoot and the Snowman plates to review, and I think they are very nice.
This grater fits my needs 100% and not only does it do a wonderful job on potatoes but it made short work of a block of cheese I grated for baked mac & cheese.
I bought one of these in early October 2013 to make treats for my dogs - no more "made in China" for me.
I would but I own 2 of these thermoses and they both do it
I purchased quart size canning jars this year for the purpose of storing dry goods and leftovers and an attempt to avoid so much plastic in my life.
Use recycled lids from store-bought mayo or salad dressing .
The Cuisinart heats quicker and cooks much better even though they are the same wattage.
I think it will last me a very long time.
I did follow the directions, as most of the pieces basically snap together.
I found this mill easy to set up and has, thus far, worked reliably for grinding wheat and rye. The resulting bread has been very tasty (and hopefully healthy as well).The mill is loud (I guess that's why they rebranded from "Whisper Mill"), but I've never seen a mill that wasn't.
We knew of the reusable K-cups since we know a few people who own keurigs but I didn't want to go with a copy cat brand , I wanted it to be keurig brand.
After the party I've used these as my recycling bags that I keep in my pantry and garage.
Bought this to compare to my roomba 560 that I have been using for 3 years.
We have owned our Acme since approximately 1978 , give or take a year or two.
(I do have three Rottweilers , so we don't lack for hair on the floor).
I had used our central vac a week ago and I still filled the container twice .
I really like these, I orde red them in red.
You just pour hot water over the tea bags , then let it chill down in the fridge.
I inspected the pieces of wood as I removed them from the box and noticed a split on the front piece to the left of the keyboard door .
i wanted an electric kettle , but landed up ordering this as i thought this was multi-functional and could be used to boil eggs etc as well.
I didn't hang it on the back of a door I actually mounted it to a wall in three separate sections.
I used the 2nd slot for a newer top of the line J A Henckels chef knife, and both slots for dull Pampered Chef, Anolon and Martha Stewart knives.
Forgiving if it was $20, but for a $50 two-piece shaker, it's a deal breaker because you expect so much more.
If you're juicing leafy green veggies and such, you don't have to clean this product after every use, only if you add in fruit .Cleanup is relatively simple, the screen takes a little scrubbing with some soap but cleans up nicely, I haven't had an issue with particles being stuck in the grating, it's all come out very easily with hot water.
When I was a child, my grandma had an outdoor pump at a well to supply her with the water she used in her house work and cooking.
I immediately placed an uncut tomato in it.
The bottoms never warp so it's always even heating, no wolbbling on the burner, food doesn't run to one edge.
I've had my Bissel Vac for about 3 years now and have been using the same filters that came with it-I washed them regularly and they held up well.
This is your standard size curtain that measures 70-inch x 72-inch .
I have tons of Wusthof knives , they're really wonderful and I've had them for years and years.
The unit steams and cleans well when the pads are dry/first used, but once the pads get wet from the steam, which is only after about 10 minutes of cleaning, then it's water water everywhere !
Must have 4 D batteries and I even got some spare batteries from amazon, also a good deal, in case the batteries run out.
Not all 100% cotton products stay soft, but these have so far.
It boils enough water at once for my 6 cup tea pot or for ramen and because the kettle is not too big, it boils quick.
I do have a few complaints though:- the unit is pretty loud - there is a HUGE discrepancy between the level 6 and 7 (coldest) setting-
It says it will hold a 13-inch pan, but not if it has handles on it ; 13 inches total is the maximum, so measure your pans.
One of the books has recipes and is very bright with color .
Love this elegant glass mug for my tea!
I was worried about this set as I had ordered it without reading reviews (something I rarely, rarely do but I was leaving town and on my way out the door)
I just ordered this with a cover two or three days ago and was not expecting them to arrive so quickly since I picked free shipping .I was pretty sure that king sized blankets/quilts/comforters would have significant overhang when used on a queen sized mattress and sitting under the duvet right now, I'm kind of disappointed.
a wooden spoon to get the needle to respond.
You remove that base, and there are feet under it , just like on the non-foldaway ones.
I am a bit disappointed that the front doors don't quite meet each other .
You'd be so much better off with the smallest size Benriner from Japan like this oneBenriner Japanese Mandoline Slicerand this to protect your fingersMicroplane 34007 Kitchen Cut-Protection Glove.
I am careful when I cook or clean them not to scratch them (out of habit), but overall I am quite pleased.
I purchased a BXB 10c from Amazon about 3 1/2 years ago .
The different size bowls is great to have to mix everything from eggs to pancakes to just plane out cakes!
The tight seal on this really kept the steam and water in as well, but now I’m able to finish it off in the oven without any messy transfer.
Cheap + excellent solution for a very annoying problem.
I think the best thing about the American Innovative Portable Dual-Timer is the batteries !
I stored two half chicken breasts with sauce easily. Reheating will not only be simply, the small size prevents the food from becoming over-done and dry.
I like the way that the Sistema Klip system holds the tops on the containers.
It's a great size to take to work or an outing (It holds @ 4 normal sized cups of coffee).
And a great price too !!!
I own two of this size which really come in handy on fried potatoes, bacon and egg weekends.
After switching from a flimsy piece of junk like the Hamilton-Beach I used for years, it is such a pleasure to go to the real McCoy; the Oster .
I use these to heat two rooms in my basement .
I wish the shelf space were deeper .
I painted the frame a dark off-green to go with the color of the face , which is called a 'Moai,' (sculpture) by the Easter Island people.
I like this pillow .
The action of the pepper mill is smooth and the flakes are uniform ; one thing to watch out for is the flow as the pepper comes out rather fast with just a small turn.
It's a bit smaller than most , which I like (carrying 22 ounces of water or more around seems silly to me).The insulation works great.
I was intrigued with this product since it had great reviews from other customers, but I was disappointed .
It is great for scraping cake batter from bowls, scrambling eggs , making a roux......and much much more.
There is a pull out tube is used with the attachments ( there are all the standard extras ).
The lid fits nice and tight and the flat base sits nicely on my cooktop without moving around like my old non-stick pots did!
I put the ice and the margarita stuff in the container, twisted and - I kid you not - about 3-4 seconds later I had a blended margarita.
I am rating this 5 stars for the containers for what you do get (not what I was anticipating size-wise).
The coarse setting is great for my french press, and the finest section does well for my espresso machine.
that the sides were slanted instead of straight like my older pan.
But occasionally I bought custom needles that didn't come in a zip bag, or brand-name circs like the Noble Needle that came on a cardboard card (which is by now a shredded piece of paper).
As other reviewers have stated, the dispenser tip is extraordinarily fragile.
It is simply too small, and not powerful enough to cool anything with any degree of effectiveness .
After experiencing a bad bout of sinus issues last year I bought this and other cleaning tools to eliminate dust and other stuff that is floating in the air.
Plus, this machine doesn't make noises .
They are also very absorbent .
It seems the seal that keeps the water in the bottom of my steamer is defective.
As with the first, a shower rack , I am quite happy.
It is no where close to being the complete thermal brewer my beloved Starbucks Baristta , RIP, was.
When I first ordered this timer I was a little unsure that I would be satisfied with this item.
I like it's rear wheels, which make it easy to pull in and out of my little place it have for it to sit.
Not here: these are thin aluminium pans of indifferent quality, all carefully plastered with non-stick to try to hide that fact.
However, after about 1.5 years of use, it now leaks out of the sides even when filled to half its capacity.
BEWARE that the higher profile air mattresses allow more body heat to escape than the low profile, so be sure to insulate with blankets under you as well as over you if you are sleeping in cold conditions.
This is a virtually "never fail" corkscrew.
so I did a ton of research on Amazon and this one had the best and most believable ratings I could find.
I love the color of this thermos and have the same color in the short stout 16 oz. version that we use for soups and stews and warm meals.
Thermometer is 2-4 degrees off .
The set fits my daybed wonderfully and the bed skirt is just the right length.
If you're going to be sitting inside you might want to let the mugs warm up slightly before use to prevent too much of the beer from freezing inside.
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.
Wires are medium gauge : not too stiff nor too flexible.
There been alot of comments that these frothers break down after a short while or straight out of the box.
It arrived almost fully assembled --literally all you have to do is unfold it out of the box and pop in the horizontal bar.
Not a problem I also purchased the 600 GSM towel set and those are perfect for my hair.
My husband put a strap on it too
I am sure it will last a long time and I will find other uses for it along with tea making.
Otherwise, I can say the following: great color , sturdy, EZ to assemble.
That warmer was made by cutting off the top half of an old 4-cup brewer and using the bottom half (warming plate and switch) as a mug warmer.
I get the best results with 5 or 6 regular teabags.
You simply set the bottom of the corkscrew on the top of the wine bottle, turn the top of the corkscrew clockwise until the cork is out of the bottle, remove the corkscrew, turn the top of the corkscrew counter-clockwise until the cork projects from the bottom, and then remove the cork.
He loves harder pillows and I like soft pillows. I guess this pillow is right in the middle and seems to satisfy both of our pillow preferences.
You have to use more milk if you want the ricotta.
I prefer my old time trays which keep the drinks just a cold as the larger cubes.
I, as always, wish it had a retractable cord and nowadays I prefer bagless to these with bags, but as this vacuum comes with HEPA filter bags it's a step above it's competition because of the great filtration they offer.
I use this fan constantly when I am at home, especially for white noise to block out other noise in the home and for sleeping soundly.
It is dishwasher-safe, and the silicone bristles are spaced widely enough for cleaning.
Simply put you have to add water each time you want a cup of coffee. I have the larger Cuisinart keurig product that has a larger water reservoir that allows you to make successive single cups without the hassle of having to fill it up each time.
the diameter .By
Amazon customer service was excellent , as I had to return the first Braun due to excessive beater wobble and a funky motor, but a replacement was sent immediately.
Although the packaging said I was getting a 6" 'Cook's' knife, what I actually received was an 8" 'Chef's' knife (and that was fine with me).I had hoped the block would also accommodate the Calphalon (See my review of this bargain.)
When I opened the box it looked like it might be difficult to assemble, but it was really easy! It took my husband and I about half an hour, and I honestly could have done it myself if I had to.
I hate to pay so much for bags, but I really can see it prolongs the life of the fruit .
The manufacturer suggests the following uses for each surface: green for vegetables, white for bread, blue for fish and red for meat.
Spend the extra $20-30 and get the Lindy's popper.
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.
Its minimum bottom size for pot is 12cm (4.7 in).
I throw out the basket as soon as I open the box and fry food directly in the fryer without the basket.
They are top heavy and tthere is no securing that.
Needless to say, I have sold the Cusinart, stopped using the Keurig at the jobsite and have gone back to a real brewer.
With the Kuhn Rikon Single Cup Easy Brew , there was not a single tea leaf in the brewed product!
I'm using this press for tea, loose leaves of course, usually blue flower earl grey or Irish breakfast tea , my two fave flavors.
The lid must be removed to pour .
Nothing says redneck like mason jars , except maybe duck tape.
I think the angle issue is a matter of personal preference rather than a design flaw.
I love my microplane, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that I love this Cusipro Fine Rasp Grater as well!
It has now been 5 weeks and I still have about 1/3 of my tomato AND IT'S STILL FRESH!I really do have a hard time believing how well this little thing works but it dos.
After looking over all of the available food scales on Amazon, I decided that the EatSmart Digital Nutrition Scale seemed like the best choice.
When I first opened the box with this "fryer" inside, I was a little intimidated !
so you can't get a proper grip and second it gets hot enough to burn you (unlike stainless).
I would have given it a score of three, but felt that the presence of little metal slivers on the handle weld spots deserved a lower score !
I've seen several reviews here and there on the Internet of people stating that their machine stopped dripping after several months of usage .
What I most love is the handle .
It fits across 2 gas burners and works to perfection for pancakes.
I just received my 7qt Lodge cast iron dutch oven this morning, and it is big and beautiful.
The pincer-like holders have a rubbery padding at the tips, so no there's no damage to fabrics from the strong squeeze.
He got it together, but it took a lot of work, two trips to the store, and it required a drill .
They're kind of hard to find in the store, probably because Electrolux disowned the Intensity vacuum (model EL5020A) after having come to the realization themselves that it was terrible.
Arrived super-sharp and ready to go! Gave them a quick wash in hot, soapy water and put them with the rest of our cocktail and entertaining supplies.
I will start by saying that I purchased these for $99 not the $95.99 they are currently listed for.
I received it on a Friday, discovered the issue Saturday and sent an email to Amazon customer service Sunday.
I have a very similar one, but it's about 20 years old.
These smaller ones seem to take forever to turn pink even with a fair amount of humidity.
It's not especially strong palstic , but so far it been holding up well.
I received mine in a timely fashion .
Cooking grade silicone with a sturdy metal handle, just the right size slots, and easy to hold and control.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0091XNL0I/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1.I eat yogurt every day so usually make a batch and half every weekend.
Works great!We have this heater mounted to the wall in a really drafty and cold bathroom.
The " chrome " sides are a bit much for me--not as clean as brushed steel--but that's a preference and nothing more.
This little kettle is tiny, so it heats up to a boil at a rapid pace. You'll have a cup of hot tea in minutes.
Update: I paid $14.00 for this, price JUST went up for the holidays to $19.99 - it will go back down, watch for the sales!
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.
We use them in our commercial concessions and bounce house company and they are a huge hit .
We bought this to replace a different stainless steel wall-mounted paper towel holder (like this:Prodyne M 913 Stainless Cabinet HolderOur old one was screwed into plastic anchors in the drywall but, with the way it was designed, it pulled away from the wall every time we had to pull the empty roll off or put a new rolls on, so eventually the unit and plastic anchors would come out of the wall.
This truly makes great margarita's , better than any bar we've been to so don't hesitate to pull the trigger.
This is a wonderful chopping board !
The griddle does a good job of not letting food stick and I really like the tilt n' drain function.
Even though it technically was not necessary, one rinse sufficed with the Mavea filter and the water ran crystal clear and clean.
As you surely realize, this is a handy bin for storing bathroom sundries .
I filled it and timed how long it took to boil on a medium burner ... a full 26 minutes !
The 5.5 and 8 ounce sizes give you options for preparing dry and fresh spices; liquids; and eggs.
I've had this for 5 months .
I had the same issue a couple of months ago .
Upon the first few uses, the machine constantly leaked water into the tray, AND, even more scary, is the fact that the machine turned ITSELF ON even when the power switch was OFF !
The spray puts out a flat, uniform line...and then I let that sit for about 30 seconds and then i used the vacuum to suck up the extra water. There is a brush on bottom
It's made of extremely heavy cast iron, comes pre-seasoned from the factory, and is a dream to use on my electric range .
I assume this Gen 4 unit will save energy better than than Gen 3 (?)
So how does it work? With hot air .
Overall though, an excellent unit. Highly recommend.
It was made to look like wood that was painted black , but only to the point where wood grain is showing through slightly.
This is unbelievable peeler ..slicer ,graterI m for the most part vegetarian and that peeler is so handy in my kitchen its crazyI do own metal kitchen glove by the way so I often use it together ...
The iron is light-weight , so it is easy to handle and maneuver.
I had had all of my jewelry in a drawer , but it was getting too cramped, so I bought this.
It was quite a pain to put together - my BF had to improvise with some drilling and leveling etc that wasn't part of the instructions, but he got it all together and we love it.
It has a paper seal over the top that you leave on, and no upper basekt like the units I am familiar with (that you can refill).
I am really happy with this Electric Water Kettle.
I have my shaving cream and shaver; a small bottle each of shampoo, conditioner and body wash; my scrubbie pouf, and my foot brush and file all in one place now, and out of the way instead of sitting in all the corners of my big Roman soaking tub .
It feels like nothing is happening. I don't know how you would know if you went over it enough or not.4.
I thought if we washed it , it would be better.
It cuts the top under the lip of your cans so there are never any sharp edges to cut yourself on and it also prevents drips
Works beautifully and cleans wonderfully .
The down-catch got sticky and I started looking for a new toaster, so I'm glad I found this offering to have my positive say.
Because the bristles are not harsh, I also use the brush on my hands to clean off ground-in dirt or paint .
all your favorite jewelry when traveling .
I did a lot of research before buying (we just had an expensive DiLonghi coffee maker die after only 14-15 months and they wouldn't stand behind it)In addition to the features, pricing and the fact that it's stainless, our main decision point for this one was the 3 year warranty.
The good news is that amazon gave me some of my money back -so I just took the hardware off the one set to match it up at the hardware store.
This is very easy to install , I just stuck the 3Ms on the back on the flat parts (i used 4) and stuck the mounting bracket to the wall and slid the dispensers on to it.
But if you want to fill the whole cup with smoothie or something harder (like bananas ) it doesn't fit.
They help me avoid cross-contamination between different kinds of foods and proteins, and help keep my cutting board clean.
Libbey glasses in general have usually held up to everyday usage so I chose them based on the brand.
They have tried different extracts (orange makes it taste like an orange cream pop) and all kinds of nut, coconut, fruit and choc.
The quality seems good , and certainly at this price point it is.
This trash can is what I consider medium sized as I use a 39 gallon metal one a local store painted for my trash - 6 people = 1 black trash bag per day.
We ( coonasses ) live in Louisiana and love too cook, these pots once seasoned, cook great and last forever ...
The 900 watts shines.
Was a little hesitant to purchase due to some of the negative comments posted here
Combine with LiquidAss fart spray (which I also reviewed) to create a unique experience.
Some might think the material is too thin .
I washed all of these before using and by the time they were de-linted in the dryer, there wasn't much towel left, one was shredded, and two others had strings hanging from them.
Shelves are easily adjustable , and the unit has self-leveling feet so if your floor (or wherever you place this) is uneven, you can easily fix the shelf for stability.
I had it up and ready to go in less than two minutes , and that included opening the box.
Found starting with hot water makes a much better brew - less time on the stove.
It's not as aesthetically pleasing as myCuisinart CPT-160, but does a better job of toasting than Cuisinart's more expensive model .
The Great Room where I use it is probably bigger than what this humidifier can handle, but it seems to at least get the humidity above 30%, which is far better than the 25% we sometimes get in the winter.
I've been looking for ages for a replacement for my crank-style nut grinder , without any luck.
I'm giving it four rather than five stars because there has got to be a flaw with the design .
I found this bowl very light to hold in the arm for whisking or stirring.
This faithful little egg cooker works great.
The heater panel is paintable so it will fit your decor if you spend the time painting it.
A big design change is the new scrubber's ability to extend to hard-to-reach areas. I like that.
I purchased the rose colored one which has a soft, iridescent, pearly rose tint to it and I've gotten several compliments on it, but I don't think the presentation alone is worth $26.99 .
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 gave it only 4 stars because of a potential safety issue - the second time I used this mixer I forgot to plug it in - I'd pushed the ON button & the speed button before I realized that it wasn't plugged in & when I plugged it in the mixer immediately began to run (spattering cake batter everywhere!).
The metal is thicker than cookie cutters for sure.
I have been using my mat for about three weeks now and am very impressed.
The Yube Cube Modular furniture system is a little challenging to assemble.
the surfaces are very smooth so my hand just slides around the jar .
It takes 5-10 minutes to brew a full pitcher, which is then ready to drink right away, nice and chilled.
Not convenient at all. So I returned the dustbuster.
I ordered this unit because I had begun to develop dust allergies in my mid-thirties and was having trouble focusing and getting work done.
What I like best about these is the oval shape that really does fit into tight places.
I have two Umbra penguin soap pumps at the kitchen sink - one for soap and the other for lotion.
bought this for my dad/grandpa when he sleeps over and visits sometimes which is at least once a week since we bought this.
I was relieved to get this from amazon and the difference is unbelievable.
I just bought a 20 dollar unit from Faberware.
If this thing had smooth inner walls, I'd give it 5 (or even 6 ) stars, but having a snag-y interior seems like a big oversight for a trash can.
I suppose it will save on having to start your oven, and the muffins do cook faster and cleanup is quicker.
And, I was skeptical about the Cole & Mason Nutmeg Grinder until I used it.
The coating on the racks are textured and not smooth to help shoes from sliding and the adjustable racks help accomodate different types of shoes.
The company was contacted and they replaced the device without question, mainly because others had also complained about the fan.
My primary use is for the tile in my kitchen (and possibly for two bathrooms).
It's still new - so I hope that it stays rust free - it's supposed to though and I'll update this if it doesn't.
I own two other rice cookers and this is the best and my favorite.
This rack is thin and lightweight and to be honest, I wondered if it would hold my spices without the clips breaking or coming off the base; not a problem.
It maneuvers fairly easily, emptying it is child's play - I agree the wand is somewhat awkward until you get the hang of it, and the handle is a bit uncomfortable to MY hand to use for any length of time , but overall I still rate it a 5 out of 5 stars.
I cannot think of any negatives for this pan (I cannot say the same for another no-name brand pan that will be tossed out as soon as I get my 2nd Anolon )
It could have been worse - I'm thankful it was not!Thank you Amazon for helping in this matter.
The shield is dishwasher safe and oven safe up to 450 degrees F.
They feel good in your hand , and their style is classic.
It also features and on/off switch which a lot fo the others out there do not so you can save on some batteries, even though the draw is minimal as I use this thing a lot and am still on the same battery (thankfully it only uses 1 AAA and comes with it).
This one has quite a bit of squishy silicone near the tip that just bends when you try to mix something.
We've been using them for a three months now and they are AWESOME!--The handels are strong and hold tough even when they are packed heavy.--The plastic inserts show zero signs of cracking or wearing out.--The vibrant colors are fun and help remind me to grab them from the back seat of my car (where they "live")--They ARE washable!
If you want to stack them more than two high you will definitely need to anchor the sides to a wall .
They are lightweight which I love, who needs a bulky, heavy cover? They let out steam if need be and they are easy to clean.
This one is better because of the generous compartments and the padding that keeps things from moving and rattling.
I wish i had had a mother to tell me about these pans .
It holds on to your tea bag while the hot water works its magic on the tea.(2)
The top cap serves as a cup .-
Other improvements are a move from a cylindrical shape to one better aimed at digging, and a unibody design in favor of a separate handle spot welded to the cup.
I found that I could not remove my Lodge cast iron skillet from the oven using one of these, it took two.
Yes, perhaps the construction doesn't match the price which I do feel is a little steep , but the table gives you room, comfort and ease which is a real plus.
Another reviewer here had mentioned that the Contigo mug she had did not keep hot for the 4 hours indicated.
If you work in the medical industry you need this mug .
In our household, we use long spoons for everything: ice cream (even out of the pint container <g>, ice-cream sodas and tall glasses, smoothies, health drinks, and, of course, iced tea.
I use them as support for my other pillows against the headboard .
What separates them, well the Cuisinart Ice-21 is a bit more handsome and a bit better built for a few extra bucks.
so I got this higher end Grand Prix II to compare with it.
Tends to overheat if used with hard nuts or continuously for about 20 to 30 minutes.
My one beef with the mat is pricing ...it seems pretty pricey for a mat.
I have been experimenting with pizza making for a few years .
The handles are sturdy enough not to bend when measuring brown sugar or other "heavy" ingredients.
A quick scan of what is available in ceiling fans let me know I must be careful with any choice I make because of the current status of our electric light bulb choices here in the good old US of A. In the meantime, I needed a fan in the kitchen, and I found this one which is great for what I need.
It's one piece and everything washes off easily (event the super melted cheese).
It really detracts from the sleek look of the kettle, and there's no spot in my kitchen where it doesn't look bad .
Blendtec Pros - Smaller footprint, less counter space, programmed settings, so you don't have to stand there and crank up the speed, you can do other things, if not done hit it again, Doesn't walk around on the counter much ( The VM with the programmed settings which I tried, was horrible about this)
Now, I absolutely must comment on the absolutely beautiful manner of packaging.
This Swiss-made, hefty ice cream scoop with the ergonomic handle is just the thing for making problematically hard batches of ice cream easily yield their goodness to ice cream lovers everywhere scoop by delicious scoop.
We bought this for use for sleepovers at his Oma's as she doesn't like keeping our son ( almost 2.5 ) 's crib up and it's a pain to put it up everytime, and now that we've converted his home crib to a toddler bed he hate's being contained....
I tried these years ago and they work just great.
Such is the case here with these thoughtfully designed measuring cups .As it happens, I had the older version of this cup in my kitchen cabinet (see photo), and while I didn't have quite the strong negative reaction those early reviewers had, the deficiencies of having a handle a 3 year old could curl out of shape were pretty obvious.
I think Hamilton Beach makes a great product, and most reviewers agree.
KGHarris, 11/12 .
Grocery store plastic bags fit perfectly in it, but be careful when you pull them out.
The suction is really good.
Milk, Half and half etc all worked perfectly for us.
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.
My husband and I keep stash of healthy leftovers in 2 cup round glass containers in the freezer to grab and go.
It feeds enough for at least 4 people and worked wonderfully.
You want to make real muffins for a change instead of those tiny things that we grew up with, well this is the pan for you.
I purchased one of these two years ago then a 2nd unit last year.
It doesn't leak a substantial amount, but it makes a mess and is a pain to clean because it gets between the plastic and the machine .
Also try stainless straws to add to your "reusable" homeEndurance Drink Straws (set of 4)bar.
Or 2 large steaks.
The water that collected during cooking did not drip into the reservoir, but stayed in the rim of the pan .
I had a problem at about the one year point with the handle .
I ordered this pillow because I was sick of the department store pillows going flat after a few months of use.
For instance, it's hard to do long-sleeve blouses without holding out the sleeve, risking a steam burn.
Makes very good coffee from dozens of options available.
less mess lol.
They seem to be very durable for glass, the sizes are very handy for storing leftovers and taking your lunch to work, the lids fit well, I don't have to worry about horrible chemicals leaching like plastic containers, and best of all they're one of the few things I can find that are still made in the USA.
I feel that any over tightening will crack the thin plastic.
Apart from aesthetics, there's no advantage to the more expensiveBodum Chambordcoffee press over this far more affordable plastic model.
I learned how to make pasta by hand a couple of years ago - and that included using a hand crank pasta machine bolted to my kitchen counter.
Not what I expected until I realized that it was made in China .
If no update you can assume it's working great a year later.(Note: we have not tried it on potatoes .)
I also don't need to ever grease a pan with butter or pam, which saves more money .
I ended up purchasing three of these (think 50ish shoes including winter boots, hiking boots, high heels, sandals, flip-flop, tennis shoes...the whole gamut) and I really like them.
I really like that the lid is spring loaded so when you open it, it stays open and doesn't flop down while you are drinking and bash you on the nose.
Wanted so much to use this for basic uses brown rice and beans .
I've always wanted a home distillation unit .
It presses nice and tight and flat to the wall so it's a spacesaver in my dining room .
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.
I bought this for a friend to use at her barn to make her horse soup in the winter.
I don't want to have to spend hundreds of dollars on a grinder and screw with the grinds , I just want it to produce a decent cup using commercially available ground espresso.
but I was hoping that by spending extra time initially I would make sure the board was well oiled and would last .
The finish appears to be a very good quality.
You'd have to flip your pillow over to go to the other side b/c the longer side is supposed to stay on your back .
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.
Yet, I brought this primarily for breakfast and it's hard to fit 3 thick slices of bacon and two eggs on there.
With this Duxtop 1800 Watts cooktop (very powerful) one can cook faster everything, boil water for pasta or vegetables, sear a steak, cook bacon etc.
This knife creates efficiency, swiftly gliding through squash and potatoes .
My only caution would be to make sure you have a safe place to store lids while drying, as they do resemble lids from other types of bottles and with 'helpers' around they could easily end up in the recycling or the trash !
I tried the Nutribullet 600 and 900 watt models, and although they are powerful and make great smoothies, they are 5 to 8 times more expensive than this little guy, which works just fine.
the freon that is sealed into the one piece die cast aluminum is warmed by your hand which warms the freon inside (you can hear it when you shake the scoop) and the freon gently warms the cup of the scoop allowing for easy release of the ice cream.
This looks great and functions well.
This is a situation I almost never run into, so, if I could, I'd give this product 4.5 stars.
They were right, it was difficult especially when there were parts missing and the holes did not line up .
They are great in the microwave and don't break easily.
I have long preferred silicone bakeware to traditional metal because of easy release of baked goods and quick cleanup, but this was my first foray into whimsically moulded silicone pans.
This bread pan is exactly what it says.
When I decided to do a through cleaning at home (moving all the furniture, lifting the bed), I knew I needed something other than my standup vac (which is very powerful but lacks vac tools ).
The white color of the rubber blade doesn't leave any marks on our glass, tiles or grout like some of the black bladed ones have in the past.
I compared the two and the old scale was off by whole ounces. That is huge when it comes to dense calorie foods.
Have not tried it with bath full yet, hoping for the best.
It is so easy to get the ice cubes out that I barely need to twist the tray!I will definitely being buying more of these!
The pan is nice and sturdy, I wish the sides were just a bit taller , but it still worked for my recipe.
This t-fal seems to be sturdy with all the features I want as for adjusting the heat and steam and with the added protection of the nonstick bottom which lets the iron even at its hottest just glide over the fabric (you do need to use only low heat on many synthetics though).It is a good iron for the fabric worker and homemaker and others using materials/fabric, such as cotton, rayon, some silks on low etc.
I have two Umbra penguin soap pumps at the kitchen sink - one for soap and the other for lotion .
A twist of the wrist removes the wrap at top of bottle.
This just arrived, and I tested it with 4 strips of bacon and just one stand centered in the black drip pan.4 thick-cut slices of bacon took approximately 3-5 minutes of cook time. I kept adding 30 seconds and watching the bacon in between.
Amazon reviews used to allow a link to other products on their site but evidently doesn't any more so if you want to copy & paste the link, here it is:http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HM83X2/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1I used the roaster for the first time yesterday and it fit a large chicken with potatoes and carrots nicely.
And the material is super light weight, but strong .
I would recommend this to family and friends, and the Amazaon price was marvelous .
It still cooks all the way through but I really wish it was more even.
Others might have a better success with this device than I do, but right now I would not recommend it to the lactose-intolerant types.
I bought this just about a year ago when undergoing a kitchen renovation when I needed some way of cooking other than a microwave and b/c I had no stove on which to cook.
I suppose that this is nice for things like picnics, informal get-togethers, etc. , but if you're really going to a fancy holiday party, this guy just WON't be appropriate.
The desk arrived within days , to which I was very pleased.

The foam came rolled up tightly in a box and upon unrolling it and giving it time to air out (new smell dissipated within 24 hours) and return to its mattress form, it works great for our granddaughters bed.
I have seven cats and a combination of hardwood and carpeting in my home and this is the first cordless that I have found to pick up both cat hair on the carpet and on bare floors.
The ExcelSteel is no exception.
One of my very favorite kitchen utensils is a good silicone spatula.
I do not use the julienne tool but the peeler alone is worth the money.
It was fairly easy to install but still required a bit of ingenuity as the side panels were a bit of a challenge.
I bought the Royal Hotel 800 thread count king size duvet cover which fit perfectly with this king size insert.
It was delivered quickly .
a 1 year warranty) in the long run,
I might buy something like this again, but it would have to be sturdier.
It pays to start with fresher beans and a lighter roast than you might be used to, and experiment to determine how strong you like it.
and also.....EASY to clean!My wife and I can make a gallon of juice in a matter of a few minutes, and the 4 parts of the juicer that need to be cleaned (besides the juice pitcher) can be cleaned in about 5 minutes .
You want the cooker to be able to be regulated and also to keep things warm especially in our family where we have 6 grown children plus their assorted husbands/wives/significant others plus 3 grandchildren !
So while I was very happy with the first use, not so much the second use and I will see now that I think I fixed the problem what happens the third time.
So now the shower curtain catches in the drawer all the time
It's a poster, no more no less.
For those of us who can't use a regular shower caddy (e.g. with a claw foot tub ) and need to hang something on the shower rod, this works as advertised.
And by the time I leave for work to pour the last cup, it isn't even warm .
The top sheet is tiny. It barely tucks in at the end (my mattress is thick
There has been no shrinking in the washer/ dryer and it's very effective at protecting our mattress, even from an attack of a toddler "accident"- leaving our mattress pee free!
The Kitchenaid makes an 18 ounce mug of very hot coffee.
They have lately branched out into the bathroom , to very good effect.
I chose a great rating for this product because they're inexpensive, lightweight and work just great with cotton candy .
It's very convenient, easy to fill, and the water actually boils , which is essential for good tea.
Best money I have spent yet on baking accessories!Just flour both sides, pat a little flour on dough and put it in, zip it up and roll it out.
They are also one of the top ranked towel products if you search on Amazon in Home and Kitchen under bath towels and sort by stars, which is what I did to find them in the first place.
I like the spinning mechanism in the frother better than the Keurig, b/c it is easier to clean, and it doesn't burn the milk unlike the Keurig.
The Deni 5600 Yogurt Maker is a good product, especially considering the price.
I used tap water filtered through a Walgreens pitcher filter with a Culligan cartridge in it and the beer tasted very good to me.
Basically the inner part of the cup opens for easier cleaning.
We found a cheap $2 pillowcase at Wally World that fits perfectly.
immediately sent me out a replacement and I had it in less than 2 days; but the replacement had even less packing and had similar but smaller dents from banging around inside the box.
First let me quantify my delight, I am a mom of 3 boys under 5 years old who love to help themselves.
It had very little suction and clogged up quickly (you'd think with so little suction that wouldn't happen, but anyway.)
The Meyers lemons had unusually thick rinds, but the OXO still got plenty of juice out.
I decided that I would buy another set for a queen bed in my guest room .
It is very strong. It holds a lot. It doesn't get dirty at all like a lot of other similar products.
It does not leave uncut areas, jagged edges, or little whiskers of metal that could fall into the food.
I bought this Malouf Bed Sheet Set, with some doubts,as I have never bought this kind of product on line before, but this turned out great.
Part of the decaf stickers had come off when manufactured, and someone tried to cover it up with black paint.
Who doesn't friggen love a mason jar?
Whiskey / wine / liquor decanter - Pretty good, thin glass, plastic stopperBormioli Rocco Dedalo 26-1/3-Ounce Decanter with Stopper-
it's hard to get the container out of the machine when the yogurt is done.
When I opened the box it looked like it might be difficult to assemble, but it was really easy! It took my husband and I about half an hour, and I honestly could have done it myself if I had to.
Buying bed sheets is always a challenge because of the misleading cotton thread counts , single thread vs multi threads, etcetera.
The transparent platter rests on a fairly small central circle , so if you try to heap loose produce on it, it may wobble.
This and similar recipes call for preheating the pan and baking temps of 450-500 degrees , which is hotter than most pans are warrantied for (including enameled cast iron).
is quite powerful and I find a lot of the carpet fibers in the container,still for $104 it is a good buy .I had an older Panasonic with bags ,had to clean out the filter and make sure the bag wasn't full .It had started to shutdown because it overheated .I
But on the slim chance that it could work, I was willing to give it a go because I absolutely loathe cooking pasta.
My husband and I have poached eggs every weekend.
Only two out of five .
The Maeva Universal Filter 2 pack is a great alternative to buying the Brita replacement filters because they just don't need presoaking.
The problem is with making smoothies .
Bought these as a gift for a couple moving from the deep south to Chicago.
Bought two of these to use in my home.
The newer one is not sturdy at all and I wouldn't trust putting hardly any weight on it.
The problem is that the packets aren't enough .
It shows no signs of age after using daily for months now .The one downside is that the press does little to no insulating, meaning your coffee gets cold fairly quickly.
Granted, like any device, you have to understand how it works and its "quirks", but once you learn, it is worth it.Now I can pressure cook with confidence and convenience. I've done pea soup in 15 minutes that turned out great.
This travel mug is great.
I love baking my own bread and needed something to help me cut the slices evenly .
These are a great purchase if you are looking to organize more
Amazon customer service was excellent, as I had to return the first Braun due to excessive beater wobble and a funky motor , but a replacement was sent immediately.
I was impressed with how quickly the iron heated up and it steams garments vertically nicely.
I no longer wake up in the morning with my back hurting, as well as other aches and pains elsewhere from the old mattress.
We heated the chocolate pieces and mixed in the oil and there it went we had our own chocolate fountain (I paid a couple college kids to keep the chocolate going as well as keep the other dishes on our buffet table full and they just used zip lock bags to melt the chocolate and mix in the oil).
I had just purchased fresh basil a day earlier so I placed it in the grinder and placed grinder in the freezer .
Guests always have fun using it.
Seriously, who needs a tiny 1.5 liter, oops sorry no metric system, that's a .4 gallon trashcan?Well - they're all over Europe in the restaurants and bed & breakfasts.
Accessory attachments include a turbo brush and upholstery brush and extension tube , which all fit neatly on the back of the unit for storage.
Treat yourself to some peace of mind and enjoy how the stainless steel keeps the drink at the perfect temperature!
I find I need to turn the oven heat down about 25 degrees when cooking in silicone, I bake them on a cookie sheet spaced a few inches apart, and it's important to let the baked items cool in the pans.
I like a good strong steeped tea and let it infuse for awhile...
The softness and texture of a towel are the utmost importance to me.
This is a great knife .
Bought two as gifts for a friend at 2/3 the price that I paid for mine at a kitchen store.
To me it's a safety issue .
(This was also true of the Henckels knife block, part of my personal set.)The reason I rated the set 4-Stars was that the handles, poly(whatever), did not fit my hand as comfortably as my Henckels 4-Star set.
This is one of my favorite gifts for housewarmings, newlyweds, family and friends .
If it's defective, you should ask for a refund or exchange , but if you press too hard or use it in a substance and temperature that it was not designed to be used in, that's your own fault.
It is as others have described-- the magnetic strips don't lay flat, and in fact are skewed in three dimensions!
If you use a vinyl curtain behind it, it is not see-through but without it you can see right into the shower.
As a result, you get about two tablespoons or so of water if you dump directly to your plate.
Its is 12 inches in diameter which is the perfect size for any size family.
This is a perfect gift for someone who drinks wine .
Many newer ovens, particularly those with convection fans in the back , are smaller than ovens used to be.
I am really happy with this refurbished KitchenAid blender .
Attach this aerator to your bottle, pour your glass, and enjoy right away.
The total length of the 2-1/2" strainer is 7-1/4" ; the wire handle alone is 4".
Its ergonomic design, hefty body, and big, pressure-absorbing, non-slip grip, complete with flexible fins to accommodate your fingers, are the reasons why you'll prefer this product over the more traditional models, as they will allow you comfortable, daily, wet or dry use while keeping you away from any stress-related injuries.
but i like the construction.very sturdy and the coating feels slippery.i see some reviewers feel they don't have to use linersor grease but the manufacturer suggests grease.
It's easy to empty and does a great job on the dog hair.
I bought one for my wife last year, now I bought one for my granddaughter.
The only issue I have with this, is it beeps (and loudly too) every time you push a button.
I have used nonstick silicone baking sheets before but these are much more substantial ( thick )
Highly recommended !
It doesn't warm the milk too hot , which is nice when making a quick cafe latte.
I would highly recommend it.3/2008: Update after 2 years : The Hoover is still going strong, even after some abuse by "borrowers".
I have a mandolin for cutting up food , but it was almost impossible to use because the food never seemed to stay attached to the pronged food handle.
They would look great at the dinner table with a vinaigrette , though cleaning the tip will require using pipe cleaners and the bottle itself will be a slight challenge - top rack of the dishwasher would probably work well enough but give it some space to protect its fragility.
I started looking at the rentals and was shocked that they were about $150 - $200 to rent.
I've owned one for over five years that finally wore out after three or more times use per week .I decided to buy the Cuisinart because it had better reviews, last time I'll listen to the reviews here.
Battery life is fantastic!!!
It died and even without a receipt, Sunbeam replaced it based on the Mfg. code.
The only reason I failed to give 5 stars the fikters are a little too large for my Bunn Coffee basket.
I made my own ground beef burgers with bacon ...definitely good and you know whats in it.
The 6qt 12in is pretty heavy but is perfect size for our campouts.
It might not be as powerful as some others, but for low to medium pile carpet , it doesn't really need to be.
I eagerly tried to make a batch of vanilla ice cream .
I LOVE this Sunbeam model.
I've had my Bissel Vac for about 3 years now and have been using the same filters that came with it-I washed them regularly and they held up well.
It is fantastic; solid,and so easy to just push the button and let it do all the work.
I downrated to 4 stars for two reasons:1.
In actuality, the dinnerware is attractive and seems fairly heavy .
Have you ever seen that Seinfeld where Jerry's car is attacked by BO that doesn't go away, and lingers on anything that crosses its path?
When my cats hear the click of the knob, they run to the source.
If you have a smaller spoon -- say a teaspoon or tablespoon -- this spoon rest works well. If you are using actual cooking utensils with longer handles, however, this spoon rest falls short.
and is just a piece of plastic , but you're not really spending that much on it anyway.
The plastic binders are hard brittle pieces and the whole thing just falls apart within weeks under normal circumstances.
While this Hoover vacuum is more expensive than others, it was well worth the investment.
The tools attached to the body make it easy to grab and use them.
the dishwasher .
The problem I have with this is that there's something frustratingly addictive about playing with the fan speeds and watching the lights!
It's sturdy, attractive, easy to use and to clean and according to her mother who also owns Simply Calphalon, she will be using it forever.
It light and a little thicker in the glass than my other carafe, still like both.
Works perfectly -- we have space for 15 cups per level (without lids it would hold a total of 45).
They do not have valves or little pieces to wash and disinfect which is great for me.
They are a generous size and thick. My children even noticed the difference.
So I bought this thinking that it would work with any liquid soap with similar viscosity .
It's well made and grinds much like coffee flakes ~ how good coffee was ground years ago before auto-drip crushed grounds became the standard.
So far, I have used it in the kitchen and to weigh packages prior to mailing them.
I roast upside down then 3 quarters of the way i flip the bird.
I like that the top snaps on and off easily. It keeps all the coffee grinds contained in the filter.
I purchases a similar Eureka model .
Hand washed as they bleed first time it says, but seemed ok to me....will always hand wash, to not subject them to washing machine water turbulence, although should hold up in it.
out!When it is on, the ring around the switch on top glows so it is clear when it is on.
My old one was getting all tea stained
They do share the handle though and its lightly textured and comfortable and they are equally sharp and arrived in the same type packaging.
I love that it's easy to clean and the optional steam vents on the lid are a nice addition.
Slice is either too thin or too thick (skipping a slot).
WThe Mavea filter fit in both units absolutely perfectly.
Made well and looks great .
It's nice and deep .I'm
I got the two cupper .
There is also a set of utensils that can be bought specifically for this set that works the best on the non-stick surface.
I highly recommend the other water kettle I have owned for a couple of years with no problems:Cuisinart CPK-17 PerfecTemp 1.7-Liter Stainless Steel Cordless Electric Kettle
While the steam press did leave my husband's shirts incredibly crisp and looking almost like they were done by the dry cleaner's (there was also a slight crease on one side of the collar, created when I rotated one pressed side of the shirt so that I could press the other side), it did not save me enough time to be worth the effort.
I absolutely HATE waking up sweating and this was the deal breaker for me.
It seems absurd and I was definitely a skeptic about just how effective and different having the GelPro floor mat would be...but I stand corrected.
There were problems with the older model after 5 years of use (and it is still going with problem noted).
The feel of the sheet is comfortable as well. The only issue is that the elastic on the bottom sheet is not strong enough to stay on the bed.
It's almost as if an airplane is taking off in your kitchen .
It also fits in nicely with the design of many kitchens and appliances on the market today (stainless steel, or black/white appliances.
The noise level is lower than every other purifier I've tested at this price point and is really barely noticeable most of the time.
The set it and forget it way is great when you have other things to do and the beeping upon completion won't allow really forget it.
My housekeeper and I fight over this knife.
so I ordered a second one just to have.
Furthermore, the dry spoons are superior to my old set because they are specifically designed to fit the mouth of a small jar , which my old round spoons often failed to accomplish.
Not recommended, unless you weigh less than 120# and don't mind no back support.
pot is very versatile, good for 1/2 lb. of pasta, also nicely accomodates steamer insert for veggies.
I am hoping that shrink a little after washing.
My wife gave me one of these for Christmas two years ago .
The trick is to let it sit for a while (like a few hours) so that the two could have a chance to settle and mix through osmosis.
Me not being a fan of hand-washing, I wish I could toss it in the dishwasher, but I know that would dull the blade, and then what's the point?We have now purchased three of this model for ourselves and two as gifts, as well as purchasing the Victorinox Santoku for ourselves.
I bought this to test out induction cooking before purchasing an induction range top.
Doesn't chop isn't completely correct .
I also took a lean beef roast, about 3.5 lbs , thin sliced it and marinated it in a pre prepared mix.
Speaking from the smaller ones (which are the exact same thing ) these are great.
I'd get them if you feel the price is good for 6 fairly good-sized dish towels, but not because you expect them to be something special.
My arthritic hands can use it easily.
With shedding dogs, long haired cats and two seed strewing cockatiels, daily vacuuming is mandatory at my house.
Quieter than our Dyson and our Bissell .Has very good suction.
I've often struggled with using 12-inch pans at home.
Yes it's rather big - the base is 4" front-to-back and 3" side-to-side -
I bought this set to replace a non-seratted set that was way too flimsy.
I purchased one with a handle for my wife who often has her hands full as she rushes out in the morning and one without the handle for me.
I decided to buy this one on the strength of the good reviews .
I think the Eva-dry wireless dehumidifier is a worthwhile tool in removing the feel and odor of excess humidity in one's interior.
The oven is large enough to easily toast four slices of bread. Any smaller and it would be inadequate for most.
They are thick and solid .The only beef I had wasn't really with the glass but the sticker that is put on the bottom of the glass, whew, they took a razor and goo be gone to get rid of the sticker and the glue residue.
Easy to ue, big display, count-up feature, loud/long "done" signal....
When it's folded flat, it is shorter than an average bar by a good foot; it's a little thicker by about two inches .
Out of the two canisters , the decaf one was the worst.
Bought this for our Olympic Queen mattress (which is a funny size to find bedskirts for) - and it works GREAT!
It only seems to keep water (refrigerated, no ice) cold for 1-2 hours .Thermos
So why not treat yourself to one of life's little pleasures (opening your bottle in style) just before you enjoy one of life's most exquisite pleasures, a great glass of beer!
Got this with my rewards points when I signed up for a credit card.
I also cleaned my cat condo tree with this, and though my results were not as spectatular as another reviewer, it still turned out really clean.
Update: I paid $14.00 for this, price JUST went up for the holidays to $19.99 - it will go back down, watch for the sales!
but at least with the 8 D batteries, you get nearly 5 days all night (when the power goes out).
I'm using it in a large, draughty room, and it's inadequate , in spite of being labelled a "Large Room" heater.
Keeps the sink from getting scratched and makes the job much quieter .
Where it differs from the rest of the market is in the size of the cubes it produces.
these are a bit more work ( you must rinse them every time , rather than just toss in the trash)
This is my second pair and the first pair lasted three years - they do lay directly on the sink so mold, betwee the flower petals, started to be a concern after three years, but, for the price, they are a nice quality.
I found that this is the only way to keep silverware looking brand new as opposed to the silverware stored in the kitchen drawer and is used daily that shows some knicks here and there for obvious reasons.
I realize it's WAY over priced .
I would definitely recommend Folex .
The settings are 450 and 900 watts .
I use it for everything but it's especially good for cooling cookies.
I like having a big heavy duty nonstick pot for pasta and it works great for cooking soups and stews.
It's a mesh see-through material , where in the picture it doesn't look like it would be see-through.
I gave up on it and put it in the cupboard, intending to contact Cuisinart about it and get it replaced under warranty.
Some of the best things about this pie slicer are the clean up and storage , and the ability to slice the pie in 6 or 8 slices.
it doesn't get knocked off the counter by accident because the bottom is a little slippery and it could chip.
but I can only give it three stars because it starts to discolor within the first week of using it and no method of cleaning can restore its beautiful, original, clear quality.
Hmmm... maybe grated milk or dark chocolate in raspberry sauce for Bolognase ...E.M. Van Court
The outside is sturdy plastic and the inside appears to be high grade stainless steel. Our water supply is filtered well water and so far there has been no residue or scale build-up at all inside the kettle.
The water tastes perfect to me in our home now
The towel insulates your hand from heat and cradles egg; end of egg is vertical.
This one has rubber feet that stay put well once you get them adjusted (very easy to do).
It feels like ceramic sorta, it has a nice weight to it.
I did purchase a silicon coated flipper/turner as I did not want to use metal implements on this.
I'd say the Ecopure filters about 40-50% faster than Brita, a detail that may seem unimportant but guess what?
When I first saw this knife, I was surprised, since I didn't realize Victorinox made kitchen knifes.
The first issue is that I did notice a little spray every once in a while (only if I hold it within the recommended 1/2 inch though).
I should become policy of Amazon to demand knock-off information on the product page as a warning.
I am in nursing school, which requires a lot of long days and have some classmates who have these.
Fantastic price!A very few buggers:* The switch is down real low on the unit so you have to bend down to flip it off and on.
I purchased this ice cream maker in 2007 (winter) for $39.99 but did not use it until summer of 2008.
it does NOT have a setting for the hot plate because THERE IS NO HOT PLATE .
These are absolutely terrible pillows for side sleepers, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone (unless they're looking for a very flat pillow with very little shape retention and virtually no support).
Shun knife's are unbelievably sharp and well made.
This is an excellent hot-water kettle .
Best for light items but a great value if you need a lot of hangers.
I love the Copco Cup .
However, I saw this had good reviews so I put it on my " Christmas list " and someone bought it for me.
So far I've only used it for traveling where I stayed over at hotels/hostels, but I'm sure it'll be equally useful for camping .Overall, I'm very pleased with the product, and I'd definitely purchase again!
I bought 2 of them...one for me and one for my daughter.
Truly a rich sky blue (more saturated color than the photo) that has a lot of aqua tones in it.
so the minute some dirty clothes go in, the sides pop out at the fold, which runs vertically down the middle of the left and right walls, and the hamper starts to bulge and lose its rectangular form.
My wife said that she wanted an electric skillet for Christmas
UPDATE April 14, 2014: Have had this carafe since 2011 and it still looks like the day we took it out of the box.
LOVE:uses plain old tap water, so you don't have to worry about chemicle residuemop pads are machine washable and resusable, so there's no waste and nothing to buyease of use / a real back saver, no scrubbing involvedleaves floors cleaner than regular mopping EVER didextremely light-weightmop head swivels which makes getting hard to reach places (around toilet, under furniture)
Easy to make toast, however, it can only do two large pieces of bread at once, one on each rack.
oops!I needed them (2) in my kitchen since my house was built in 1889 and backthen the people were teeny-tiny and kitchen cabinets were not very large,and closets were tiny for these tiny people, so I got these cabinets for mykitchen to hold the extra pots & pans .
I thought that I could use my weight to tamp down the rest of the way and zip it like you would a suitcase - one side zipped but the other zipper came off in my hand - it is going in the trash.
Just received my new oven from Amazon (really fast FREE shipping), and I am ecstatic about it.
We live in a double-wide mobile home, so we have a small tub enclosure, and the 72" length fits perfectly.
I still love it because the ice comes out looking like legos , and my son loves it as well.
The portable unit covers about 550 square feet , which is wonderful if you have a small apartment, loft or studio.
These lids are fine for refrigerator storage or dry storage , if you aren't needing things to not leak.
Rather than buy another dome, I figured it would be better to purchase a product with a better design such as the Super Wave Oven which has a big glass bowl and a cover on top which should last longer and is easier to wash.
I pulled out the old Cuisinart and it works like a charm, even at five years old.
I am in the process of substituting all of my plastic containers for BPA free equivalents .
I am very happy with this purchase!
n't kink + On board tools so they don't get lost, and they do stay on.
I've gone back to using my trusty old 6 cup espresso maker .
I was a big fan of these when they first came out and used one of them constantly.
They feel more like a real bed than a blowup.
RV'S DO NOT HAVE A GOOD OVEN FOR BAKING PIZZA.
The others were a fairly uniform yellow Dijon mustard color, as in the photos, but this piece, also described as gold, was more of a slightly orangey gold color, like the old appliance color known as harvest gold.
Assembly can be a bit irritating, though not really difficult.
it's important to completely unplug your brewer before attaching this unit.
Works perfectly -- we have space for 15 cups per level (without lids it would hold a total of 45 ).
This little basket does the job perfectly - it's the ideal size to hold all of my items and is very sturdy, has a very stylish look, the brown blends in with my furniture and so having cosmetic bottles in my living room doesn't look nearly as odd!
First I was pleasantly surprised that they shipped me the "Pet" version of the Spot Bot.
I even use it to weigh my cat just before bringing him to the vet.
I just trim the ends off of each clove and roll it around briefly in the tube .
I don't know if the color was touched up in the photos, but what I got is more key lime green than sage green.
Plus it features a powerful induction motor for HEAVY DOUGH.
When I kept it in the freezer attached to the refrigerator, the ice cream never froze past milk shake consistency.
Needless to say, we ran the Dyson over it and we no longer wish to throw it away.
This is the perfect processor if you're like me and only occasionally need to bring it out.
I have been looking for these after buying a similar set 10 years ago.
I've used mine for transporting in a back back when walking/hiking and for storing leftover wine.
This salt and pepper set is even better looking and classier than it looks in the picture, I am very happy with it.
She likes the vacumn and recently told me she needed some more bags but be sure to get the real Hoover Pleated HEPAY bags whatever they are.
There was a clog deep inside the machine that made awful sounds.
Only had them for a couple days so far but I am very picky when it comes to pillows - I tend to roll around a lot and sleep on side/back/stomach whatever I feel like at the moment.

just to add on to all the good reviews this is a fantastic dutch oven I kicked it off by seasoning it again because yes people the seasoning is not stellar mine actually looked grey a bit still so in the oven it went but after that little time killer the fun began I made a roasted chicken with lemon rosemary and onion with garlic it was amazing how well this thing cooked it, literally so juicy and tender it fell off the bone ..it was sooo good and my family is so damn picky they were even in love with it
The wood just cracked when the screw started going into the pre-drilled slot for it.
Even if coated with a non-stick cooking spray, 90% of the time spent mixing, you have to stop after a few minutes to either scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula or batter spreader, un-clump the beater itself, or to a texture check to make sure that there isn't raw flour, sugar, or anything else stuck to the bottom or sides .
Like other OXO products I've used, this is well-made and the storage case for the pattern disks is a good idea to keep them from getting misplaced.

My colors; 3 pink, 3 green, 4 blue, 1 tan (received 11 , not 10).

I saw a pizelle maker in Crate and Barrell and the associate convinced me how delicious they were, and that they were an italian tradition.
The color is really nice too - a nice navy blue .
I also learned to make sure that I didn't have excess fondant on the sides or back of the beads as this made the beads look a bit sloppy, but I just used a small sharp knife to cut away any excess and it only took a couple of seconds.
I love these, I'm glad I bought two sets, and I may order two more soon.

the rubber handle may someday cause a food/water trap if washed in the dishwasher though hasn't yet, it is slightly stretchy.
My husband bought this from Walmart - he wanted to get away from teflon .
However, it is far too big for the kitchen (as it holds about a five year supply of sea salt) and too small for a bathroom, should you wish to use it there (it holds perhaps enough salt for maybe four baths).The real problem:Not shown in the picture are large labels top and bottom, which are ugly.
Even if coated with a non-stick cooking spray , 90% of the time spent mixing, you have to stop after a few minutes to either scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula or batter spreader, un-clump the beater itself, or to a texture check to make sure that there isn't raw flour, sugar, or anything else stuck to the bottom or sides.

Cleanup is relatively simple, the screen takes a little scrubbing with some soap but cleans up nicely, I haven't had an issue with particles being stuck in the grating, it's all come out very easily with hot water .Anyhow, if you're looking for the perfect juicer, it doesn't exist but for a centrifugal, this is definitely on top.
In an office cubicle, usually plug points are set below your desks .
Sturdy, functional, effective and made in the USA .
Sure they get food stains on their finish and on the rivets, but a little Bon Ami on a non-metallic scubbing pad and it comes right off and they're good as new!
I have been trying unsuccessfully to get information from the manufacturer about this juicer .

This does an excellent job of evenly grinding coffee without the noise of an electric burr grinder , although I would not use it instead.

After 30 days they're still fluffy and holding up to use daily .

First K cup machine purchase (dual brewing system).

The stretchy pouch is terrific!
Crushes ice into snow if you let it.
I bought two pans
While the ventilation is key for steam/smoke to release if I desire to cover the frying, the issue is the times when it is not used and oil sits in there.
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.
the timer isn't a timer, it's merely a marker to remind you of how long you're planning on running the machine. the first time I used this, the yogurt turned out like runny, clotted soup.
They are soft .
Batteries are included , by the way.
With just the two of us to cook for, a countertop oven is more energy efficient than heating up the a large oven just to bake two potatoes and roast a dozen spears of asparagus .
I tested the cups using water weighed on an accurate kitchen scale , and the measures were very close.
Bought three of these for a mother daughter tea.
Will also buy the lid for this pan, as well as the square panini-type press for this pan as well.
I purchased the "animal" version because I have two dogs .
The primary use of this mixer is to make 4 loaves of bread/week .
Although not as thick as they once were (I think they were a ridiculous 11" thick when I unpacked them), they're still plenty thick and supportive.
And it's big enough to measure up 2 cups of anything .
a slow cooker to be able to cook enough to make a couple of meals and something that worked and worked well.
I love the remote !
I also have a DC27 which is heavy
This is a very nice bamboo kitchen utensil set.

These charcoal water filters are identical to the expensive ones I used to purchase from Cusinart.
I have a small kitchen, but the corner cabinets are really deep.

I measured the diameter and depth of the stone with a caliper and then used a mathematical formula to determine what the gem SHOULD weigh if it were a diamond perfectly cut, which was a little over 1.97 carats.
However, this turns out GREAT boiled eggs , much faster than I can make them in a pot.
We have a little alcove where our chinchilla lives and we decided to get a window A/C unit for her during a recent 90 degree spell.
I figured it did not have to be great because it was not actually going to be a business desk , and honestly did not expect much.
However, I'm returning it because of the cord .
No more using cups to mix eggs in or old butter tubs to mix things in!
I purchased two of these dredges to keep salt and pepper handy on my stovetop.
I just wish I had my $30 back.
Since i received this water Kettle I have been using my old all glass CHEMEX coffee maker and enjoying our coffee even more.
The Trudeau has a fork holder/splatter ring that is way too big and leaves little room for cooking even for just two people.
The blender works better if "frozen" fruits are thawed first and fresh fruit, etc are cut / sliced into smaller bits and crushed ice instead of cubes.
We have since been able to produce ice cream while making sure the motor is properly seated upon the can lid .
a second one .
My only concern is the material that the bowl is made from seems like it might crack easily if dropped.
This scale seems to measure just fine - it agrees with the other kitchen scale that only works if you hold the button down, and with the weights listed on various packaging.
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.
For the last few years, I've used the old one at least ten times a day, without ever having to change batteries.
I ordered 2 sets of these; the first set was fine however the second set did not include the hardware, nor was I able to get it sent to me.
The pitch of the fan blades, the design of the compressor, the controller interface - these all equate to a great unit which operates within a decibel rating and frequency that is very friendly to the human ear .
I probably went over 40 years without having a soft boiled egg.
I have had my FD5 dehydrator for about 16 years .
I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have.
This one seemed to fit the bill: Less expensive, larger grinding volume, quieter, longer lasting , etc.
I'm really short so it's difficult to reach the stuff in the back of the cabinet.
That procedure has reduced the musty odor to nearly zero.
Buying more expensive coffee maker is no guarantee it will last a long time .I've had this coffee maker for couple of weeks now and so far it has worked great.
The color is a little darker than I was looking for
It works very well, costs much less than the non-hand held products, takes up less storage space and works well with the vacuum sealing bags that zip lock.
I got this to go in our bathroom .
It's still slightly thinner than I like, so I'm going to try using 2% milk next time.
It takes more time to clean than the mesh style.I purchased this because I thought it would last forever (ForLife), but I noticed a gash in it, in the perforated section, not long after I got it.
As one reviewer states "It's good to have inexpensive cloth instead of the paper" AMEN.
I doubt this is for the very serious cook, but that type cook should probably know to hone a knife properly with a stone or a steel .I used the 2nd slot for a newer top of the line J A Henckels chef knife, and both slots for dull Pampered Chef, Anolon and Martha Stewart knives.
The top comes apart easily for easy cleaning.
It said to never use PAM because it destroys the nonstick coating.
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'.
Then it took 3 (three) treatments with Goo Be Gone to get the remaining glue off the canister.
Now they will be replaced once a month like they would be.
They are no longer made using borosilicate glass , and increasingly consumers (like me) are left to deal with inferior quality.
As with another reviewer, the temperature was much lower than my favorite old Cuisinart which broke down after many years of daily-plus use, and the coffee cooled down in my cup before I was even halfway finished with it.
But if you go on the Rachael Ray site and look for this product, you will see the following:"Special Features : Not Recommended for use on Ceramic/Glasstop Stoves"That's a "special feature"?
Austin's design is one they stand behind with a 5 year warranty , and a filter rated at needing replacement once every 5 years...
Before I bought this breadbox, we stuffed each paper-bagged loaf into a 2-gallon zip-loc; otherwise the bread would dry out and turn rock-hard in a day. These loaves sat in an ugly pile on our countertop, since we have no room in our cabinets for bread storage.
After unpacking I immediately went to the sink to submerse the ring in order to remove the product decal sticker on the side .
You simply set the opener on top and turn the handle...as soon as the resistance stops you can easily lift up the can top with the smoothest edge I've ever seen created by an opener.
I had a single bag wooden rolling laundry cart which I absolutely adored.
I used it on my bedroom carpet, and it cleaned up new messes (cat barf) admirably.
The package recommended that I lightly dust the mold with cornstarch
The low price does not, in any way, result in an inferior product.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:This knife IS sharper than most in its price range, but for cutting blocks of cheese I am not seeing any breath-taking difference from my humble 6" utility knife or 8" chef's knife.
Compared to my Waring Professional blender, this Oster blows it out of the water.
We have found that it seems to last longer if we don't grind the peppercorns as fine .
I'll play around with the length of time, and blender speed settings ...maybe I'll be able to make a nice smooth (not gritty) almond milk using this bag after all.
I bought this grinder because my old blade grinder died and I like my coffee.
I have had this for more than a year, and I have come to realize that to get the ice cream to the right consistency you must keep the bowl in the deep freezer .
We looked again, saw this Mr. Coffee offering, and decided to try it out.
It is quite easy to disassemble and clean.
It took both my husband and I together to unroll it .
Functionally, this thermos travel mug works great.
* It's a vacuum cleaner .
The seal around the edge of the plunger is tight, and the mesh is very fine , so I have not had any trouble with grounds ending up in the cup.
I use the Large Dial for roasts and this one for poultry (this thermometer's sensing part extends from its tip for 3/4 of an inch which works better for the thinner poultry meat).
I am very sure that the 24 oz Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker from Natural Revolution Ltd will not disappoint you.
I read the bad reviews and have not had one problem with cereal crunching or anything of the sort, up to now I have put in cherios, fruit loops and reeses puffs , perfect performance, no complaints at all.
Grommets, hangers and rod are all stain/rust free and the curtains are doing the job they were designed to do.
to throw out - so sticky they became and I am struggling to even do scrambled eggs, let alone frying some cutlets and anything with more cooking time.
There are large chunks of bean in with the grinds.
This one is mainly for the second floor only, which is fully carpeted , and this machine does a great job.
I have used it on all sizes, from tiny cans of tomato paste to the giant 128 oz cans of tomatoes and it has worked flawlessly with all of them.
I have had this unit, purchased from Amazon for about a year .
In order to make the handle rubberized and comfortable, OXO had to add a whole cap piece on the top which effectively makes the top row of slots on the grater useless !
I purchased this mattress mostly based on prior experience.
I've had for 8 months now.
If you take a chug and insert the chillsner too quickly it can cause your beer to overflow .
Otherwise, for the first reason I bought it does a good job! It's a space saver plus I got a good deal on it since I used the "super saver" for shipping and an addtional discount if you spend more...$125 more so I decided to get other new appliances for my kitchen, I needed it anyway...
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.
This seller didn't pkg it that great, but, honestly it arrived unscathed and not even a package dent .
I am ordering a 2nd one from Amazon, as I am very happy with the one I purchased at another site.
so you use a little oil and wipe it down both sides after scrubbing down with water and a good nylon bristle brush .Small thing to remember but it didn't occur to me until I used it.
Progressive International Egg Beater was well made, works very smoothly .
This does not take away from the performance at all, so dont let that slow you down from buying it .
At $ 9.99 a four pack here at Amazon, they are a bargain and should last several months, at least, in the average house.
Things like "Never nest the mugs", " Stack pieces carefully with protective felt pads or paper towels between each piece.".
It finally pooped out on me in 2001 .
Otherwise I am thrilled to have found the filters.
We ordered one set of these to try them out.
The bristles are stiff enough to take care of business, but not so stiff that they rip up the skins on the vegetables .
I like its looks and I like its quiet whistle. My last kettle scared the dog with its shrillness.
Having two batteries is great, as the one in it (not in the charging holder) goes down quickly, but the back-up finishes my house.
So now I have modified my review to be a 1 star .
When you're using this Wok on an electric stove the heat is completely concentrated at the bottom, so things get super hot, stuck, and then eventually burn at the bottom.
You need to be careful to seat the lid just right before you latch it .
I plan to buy a few more .
I am sure it will last a long time and I will find other uses for it along with tea making .
I've had this salad kit for several years and it remains one of my favorite bowls for work lunches.
Note that they are not absolutely quiet .
The lid will not go back into the can once removed.
This set of 3 stackable cooling racks seems to be well made, with one caveat.
Grounds everywhere and crappy coffee.
Its perfect for displaying your baked creations on the dining room table or you want to take your treats pool side.
I was intrigued with this product since it had great reviews from other customers, but
After trying several stir-fry pans that ranged from passable to dismal, the Circulon left them all in the dust.
Its heavy .
The device is very large , and will take up a considerable amount of storage/counter space.
I read the reviews, but being the stubborn person that I am, I still counted on the Cusinart reputation to come through and prove the reviews wrong..
This Ferris wheel cupcake holder is adorable and quite the eye-catching serving piece set up on a table.
The pans are quite thick and sturdy and the non-stick coating is quite good .
Wrapped tightly in lots of bubble wrap , it arrived safely.
I am disappointed that I have had to return it .
It's a very nice holder - not too big and not too small.
Very nifty little gadget .
Besides food, the scale can also be used to measure the weight of other things, such as small packages .
This is the best vacuum I've ever owned (and I've owned many).I have had it for over 5 months now and it is as good as the day I bought it.
This item works for the most part, but the plastic end has warped which makes for an uneven cut.
It is easy to assemble, sturdy, and most importantly has a very simple design which I anticipate will be durable into the future.
Westpointe 4-Inch High Velocity Fan (black): Reasonable price and VERY fast shipping.
This product is also light and does not take up a lot of space.
I recently wore out my Cuisinart SS-700, so I opted for the Keurig B155 because it appears to be more capable and I truly liked the styling .
The Zojurishi comes in handy to not only cook rice for large groups, but also to keep rice warm and ready for consuming for around two days.
I've only had this for about a week , but I absolutely love it.
My house stays a lot cleaner and I only have to drag the vaccum cleaner out once a week - good for me!
So I set it down to 3 .5.
I've also drank without a straw and the when tipped over to drink, the seal doesn't leak .
Cornbread would be cute!
Made in the U.S.A. !
Beautiful french press.
I wanted a thermal carafe, and when it arrived with glass I assumed I'd made a mistake.
These glasses are the best.
I cannot say enough about USA Pans !
Then get every thing lined up, fill with water, turn it on and find out the fan is broken , return.
As of today, I can vouch for the sturdiness - I knocked it off the countertop , and it hit the un-carpeted floor with a thud, but had no damage.
I have had the Zojirushi coffee maker for over 6 months now.
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.
The cubes do not seem to last longer at all and they are not so easily extracted from the rubber tray.
I only gave this item four stars because Winware does not seem to make interchangeable tops with larger holes for their stainless steel dredges like they do for their plastic dredges.
However, I saw this had good reviews so I put it on my "Christmas list" and someone bought it for me.
all recommended care and use guidelines were followed so this shouldn't really have happened.
AMAZON should contact Lodge regarding this continuing trend.
Those awful tank lids .
When the timer is done, it turns off automatically and has a loud 'ding' (a good thing) or you just turn the timer to off manually if you want to end it early.
This is a cool and very nifty collapsible kettle .
Then a small piece that hooks that holds up the piece that fits on top of the filter broke off .I originally still gave this coffee maker 3 stars as it did a nice job until the piece broke off after about a year.
you can save on some batteries , even though the draw is minimal as I use this thing a lot and am still on the same battery (thankfully it only uses 1 AAA and comes with it).
Anyway, mason jars are legit and buying 12 at a time is a no brainer!
This t-fal seems to be sturdy with all the features I want as for adjusting the heat and steam and with the added protection of the nonstick bottom which lets the iron even at its hottest just glide over the fabric ( you do need to use only low heat on many synthetics though ).It is a good iron for the fabric worker and homemaker and others using materials/fabric, such as cotton, rayon, some silks on low etc.
I hope it lasts past the warranty which should be about a year I imagine.
This is one of my favorite gifts for housewarmings , newlyweds, family and friends.
Normally I like Eureka products but this one SUCKS - and I don't mean that in a good way.
Cut side down !
I got the blue speckle and I think that is probably the most attractive color choice.
Well, I'm happy to say that it fits and doesn't leak .Taste wise, the water tastes good.
The dimensions of this wine cellar are 20 inches deep X 14.5 inches tall X 10 inches wide .
New off-white carpeting and a sick cat do not make good combos.
It is very sharp and has a great curve to it that helps to rock it across the pizza.
I am very sure that the 24 oz Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker from Natural Revolution Ltd will not disappoint you.
I also add a little olive oil to the water.
It is so nice to have a lid that goes on and comes off easily; it's rubberized , so it almost lays on.
On to the " medium blade ", the green one.
The lid is easy to operate and seals very well.
No sticking, no hassles .
There is no way to clear, as far as I can tell, but it's not a big deal because you can just hold the minute button in and it will do the super-fast scroll to 99 then to zero to start over.
The switch being in front makes it easier to turn on and off (the other one slid all over when trying to turn it on).
I contacted the company and they kindly sent me another cup at no charge.
It got worse and worse and finally after 4-5 weeks I threw it away.
Son was very afraid of the pump as it sounds like a vacuum cleaner ...Easy quick assembly- threw on the cover (a really soft and plush fleece cover, with straps that go all the way around for comfort and safety-and a really cheerful and cute pattern-definitely gender neutral) and he got right on and then gave us a big fight when we wanted him to sleep in his regular bed and had a fit when we deflated it, rolled it up, put it in it's bag, and put it away...
handles are well-designed , don't get hot on stovetop.
If you are on a budget I can definitely recommend these, all you need is included in the bag at an affordable price and the pattern on the comforter will look great in your room if combined correctly with furniture and accessories.
The only caution I would share is that if you hold the knife properly (thumb and side of the index finger on the sides of the blade, last three fingers wrapped around the handle), be careful of the "dull" bolster area ; I actually cut myself on this part of the knife the first time I used it!
It puts off a little less noise than a small fan , which makes sense since internally it really is just a small fan.
a wooden microwave cart I've had for thirty years.
I like to flip sides - I'm mainly on my left shoulder -
I need something for tiny jobs like my keyboards and other accessories , and it does do the trick.
I've had a $600+ set of Wusthof Classic knives for five years and had been using the sharpening steel that came with the set.
There are only two coffee drinkers in our house and this is just way too big for our needs.
We keep it in our kitchen .
What I really like is that it will lay flat , which allows me to get under things that I used to have to move.
I gave it 2 stars, because it is good for mincing garlic and chopping dried fruit and nuts .
Nothing sticks and everything on the sheet is exactly the same every time .
Great strainer - an awesome piece of Kitchenaid accessories.
As far as putting them together, I paid a handy man to do that for me.
I would give the CDN a 5 star rating except I've had poor reliability on previous digital thermometers.
I received baster for free to review from the Amazon Vine program .
I suppose I'll just use a brush to reach the inside.
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.
Unfortunately, for some reason, Thermos decided not to make the flip part of the lid seal .
We tried using a safety pin to remove some of the plasticky blue coating they'd painted the threads with (WHY?) and still couldn't make much progress.
I do believe this blanket is defective .
I got these for the matching sheet set - these cases , like the sheets, are really soft and for the price, are great!
The stopper itself fits a variety of bottles and is designed to provide a tight seal on practically any bottle from 750ml to 1.5 liters .
I used various fillings after testing wtih afew plain ones just in case - jam, apple pieces, apple sauce, choc chips - all worked well.
The only caution I would share is that if you hold the knife properly ( thumb and side of the index finger on the sides of the blade, last three fingers wrapped around the handle ), be careful of the "dull" bolster area; I actually cut myself on this part of the knife the first time I used it!
When I first put up the the shower curtain there was a strong vinyl odor for two or three days , so if the odor concerns you, I recommend airing the curtain outside for a day or two before bringing it inside.
Then I bought the Braun coffeemaker listed here.
It is a little pricey too
I've used this product for several weeks .
Loved the blender but the motor died within 6 months .
I gave this organizer three stars because it seems well made, however I couldn't actually use it because it didn't fit any of our doors. It was wide enough to fit over the top on some of the inside doors on our 1960's era home, but not our door to the garage, where I wanted to use it.
After 15 minutes of vacuumng, I'll still be cleaning the little balls up for days.
Not a lot, but over the course of a set of batteries it can be 40 minutes or so.2)
So 12-ounces is a safe capacity.
I bought 2 of these to help hang things higher up in our closets.
I put 9 tablespoons in one compartment and there's room left over.
The other glass ones I've had were cheaper and the salt eats through the finish on the lids.
i prefer some of the newer designed shark steamers over this one.
I also cooked some muffins in a another smaller count metal pan...and frankly--I believe the results were equal...but the silicone may have a edge being really easier to handle and remove muffins when not using paper cups.
They definitely are well made by Tramontina , a reliable italian manufacturer of quality kitchen goods.
These are really good hooks, but not nearly as strong as the original suction hooks that came out years ago.
I use these knives all the time, they stay sharp for a long time and I really abuse my kitchen utensils from all the use they get.
I'm not worried at all about filling it up, the rack is heavy duty enough to be able to hold all 56 bottles it's designed to hold.
I have owned many vacuums in my life and, because they were so heavy , I hated vacuuming.
Under the blazers , I have my laundry basket, and under my dresses, there's still room on the bottom shelf for other folded up clothes.
The bath towel is silky and absorbent and only gets better with laundering.
Also, reviews indicate that it is not sturdy , and may have to be strapped to a wall.
I can't believe how nicely & easily I cut through everything now! A very good value for the price too.
This pillow case is very soft and cool to touch, at least for several hours at a time...was looking for the coolest pillow case I could find, and this tops all of them thus far....fits my standard size pillow, but will "turn" on pillow sometimes as I toss and turn, which happens to most cases I use....could do without the frilly floral design , but that might appeal to some....I'd like to see this pillow in solid color and King size as well.
It weighed 3.4 carats, meaning that it's cubic zirconia , which has a specific gravity much higher than that of a diamond.
The smell fades .
When I'm cutting veggies, or chicken, or beef, I set the mat on top of my bamboo cutting board to work.
It has an old-fashioned, mechanical ticking timer, which works fine now
(Well, except for that massive size 19 circ , which wouldn't fit in a bag this size...)
a wire cutter .It was fun while this block lasted
A pan needs weight and balance , and (one hopes) a great design - you cant do better than the Earth Pan by Ozeri.
It's not very thick - definitely a summer weight if you're looking for warmth, but again, for $6 I don't expect a delux blanket.
I had high hopes for this set, because the Rachael Ray brand, while wildly inconsistent, sometimes delivers quality.
The other one had the stiffening center core product that was closer to the end of the silicone so that it was more usable when mixing something.
The plates are large, the bowls are deep and the mugs hold all the coffee I need (which is a lot).We've had the set for 4 months now, and have only chipped one plate and a bowl somehow developed a long crack from top to bottom.
This organizer is ideal for hanging belts or ties or other clothing accessories .
I still wish to learn the art of rolling sushi, but until then I will follow the Germans and Leifheit my way to yummy.
This is an amazing product - When I ordered it I was concerned that because if was queen/king it would be stretched to the hilt to fit around my king-sized bed - but not the case - Plenty of room to spare - and it was long enough for my extra-deep mattress.
It's not completely non stick like a TFal or other brand names of teflon, but with a brush or some oil
If you have children please be careful as THEY DO GET HOT!
The plastic feet allow it to slide nicely on a hard-wood floor , so you can easily pull it away from the wall to manage TV connections.
I do not know the expected life for one of these, but it died within a couple months .
I've used it on carpeted floors and bare floors .
In the box you'll find four of the following: butter knives (aka dinner knife), dinner forks, salad forks, soup spoons, and tea spoons, for a total of twenty pieces.
Its really like you received a "build it yourself project kit" with lots and lots of bitty pieces to assemble You can expect to spend many hours to build your own etagere cabinet .
This review is specific to the 2.5 " Lucid by LinenSpa Gel Infused Ventilated Memory Foam Mattress Topper with Removable Bamboo Cover 3-Year Warranty.
I had been using a ten-year-old Revereware set, good in its own right, but there were some things I disliked about the Revereware, mainly the fact that the bottoms did not make good contact with my stove burners (ceramic top).
I have been given some loose tea and xlarge tea bags
Also, the cord is short , and it is not easy to get things over the hanger part of the steamer without tangling the chord.
Was looking for an low cost Chinese Chef's knife that performs well at an affordable price.
However, before I purchased I magnified the picture to be sure that the cherry was a good match for my room.
They watch him as he works and sniff him when I have Roomba upside down to clean him ("Oh, of course it's a robot , we knew that all along...").Still haven't thought of an appropriate name for my little buddy.
They are the perfect size to hold a small bottle of spices, and they look magnificent!I have half of my spices in a rack on my fridge, and the other half in a drawer (this drawer is NOT large, I live in an apartment where they didn't think to leave a drawer for silverware, if that tells you anything.)
Everything washes up easily and emptying the used tea leaves is also easy since the stainless steel is only the bottom half - plenty of opening to tap it out.
I really wanted to like this grinder, but a major flaw in it is that you can only grind 20 seconds worth of coffee every five minutes.
It replaces one of those scoops with the liquid in the handle and the OXO scoop put that one to shame.
I also used 2 TBSP of coffee per cup.
You can scoop with them, measure your ingredients, heat on the stove and they have a ring so you can either keep them clipped together or pull them off to use individually.
All the other ads included lids .
The ORECK ULTIMATE HANDHELD VACUUM is a wonderful device for getting to awkward locations.
If you work in the medical industry and are that guy/girl in the office and you make yourself laugh harder than most interaction with other living things you have already purchased this mug and are only looking at prior purchases on Amazon to make yourself feel better about all the money you spent since you signed up for Prime and went on a binge of cheap crap you would never pay for in the store but since you saw it here for a few bucks...
I tried using a few different types of coffee in the presto my pod, but it didn't seem to make a difference. I'm not convinced that the pressure is strong enough to brew a decent cup.don't buy this... heck I'll sell you mine for a dollar :-)
The BlowOut Bedding pillow protectors are very nice.
Good beer tastes best cooled to between fifty and sixty degrees.
It is easy to use and clean.
We have a big family and first thing in the morning you can count on a line up at the fridge, the kids filling their water bottles, me filling the carbonated water containers and the hubby mournfully waiting for someone to give him "cuts" so he can be properly caffeinated .
I also noticed I couldn't feel the heat from a hot beverage in my hand.
The finish is shiny , but it still works with the matte finish of my stainless steel appliances.
It is much quieter than my DeLonghi espresso maker, which just broke yesterday after buying it 4 months ago .The
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 .
I did a lot of research before buying (we just had an expensive DiLonghi coffee maker die after only 14-15 months and they wouldn't stand behind it)In addition to the features, pricing and the fact that it's stainless, our main decision point for this one was the 3 year warranty.
I purchased this steam mop because I love "clean" , but hate the time it takes to get there.
For this dish to be truly beautiful, some ornamentation on the inside of the rim i s needed, so it would be visible when the dish is being used (there is some ornamentation on the outside of the rim, but you can hardly see it when the plate sits on the table).
The company took tremendous care to pack the pitcher for shipping , , , there was so much bubble wrap it would have survived if it had fallen off the truck.
I use mine mostly for parmigiana cheese and whole nutmeg , but I have also found it incredibly useful for grating those fibrous ginger roots.
We had a generic rice maker/steamer for a long time.
This will come in handy for my little grandson when on trips this summer.
It took my husband and I about half an hour , and I honestly could have done it myself if I had to.
It is large enough to hold the grinds of 4 double filters, and we especially like the padded bar on which we tap the filter to loosen the grinds.
But, mine was damaged so I did not just accept that.
Obviously if you attach them they are more secure, but they work fine for painting and finishing if you just put them under the work on a counter top.
I've been using my hotplate daily for 14 months now.
It will be as good as starbuck's or better if you practice enough.
When you are done, there is no need to find a saucer or napkin to rest it on because it comes with the perfect matching silicone mini-dish .Everything washes up easily and emptying the used tea leaves is also easy since the stainless steel is only the bottom half - plenty of opening to tap it out.
No more bagged microwave popcorn for me.
I wanted this to wok, so I followed another reviewer's recommendations and cut the bottom off of a K-cup.
The cubes do have to be pushed out of the tray one by one , and placing the filled trays into the freezer can be challenging if you don't put a small baking sheet or Tupperware lid under them.
The combination of salt and ice causes the mixer to become too cold and it needs warming in order to get going again .
The items were well packaged in a zip lock bag and enclosed with a bubble wrap envelope.
It's a 5 ply, and the bottom is HEAVY.
The bottom of the shelf has small openings in it so water can drain.
I was also worried that this new design would not work with my preferred soap -- Bath & Body Works "kitchen lemon" -- but it works just as well as , if not better than, the old model.
+nice size+badless+adequate cord length- overheats very quicklyi bought this because the main living area of house is hardwood, and i only need to vacuum the rug and quick-sweep of the floor.
I almost didn't buy it, based on some of the reviews .
Libbey glasses in general have usually held up to everyday usage so I chose them based on the brand.
The lid doesnt seal 100% and swivels on its own , which means that when you are pouring, you need to hold the top to keep it from closing on its own, lol.
So much better than my old Roomba (with its hard to clean brush and its bumping hard into stuff).I do think the Neato is better at cleaning carpet than hard surface.
I did have some issues with getting the plunger to stay aligned with the handle to press the cookies , which is the reason I removed a star.
I loved the 20 oz. mug so much, I decided to try this 24 oz. small vented casserole .
I hung it on the side of the bookcase in the family room...
Keurig makes the best machine but no cappuccino.
Went to see them the other day and even though someone else bought them some sort of "famous TV chef lends name to garbage cookware" stuff as well, they were using these.
I had a older version of this product; this one offers even better results!
Alas, it is outside of our return window (30 days) so we will be unable to return this model and hope to enjoy many half cups of coffee instead.
The underside is a more cottony feel and very warm which I appreciate and the throw pillows look great.
The 8 hour claim is exaggerated; the liquid may still be warm but it will not be hot at 8 hours.
After these arrived, my husband saw them on the kitchen counter and asked why I had them.
My favorite things about ELBs: no more plastic baggies!No more squished lunches !!
Works just fine, nothing slips .
However my sink sits pretty close to my tub - it's tight quarters.
I have used a number of pans that have come from different manufacturers, and many times, the non-stick coating doesn't work as well as it should or starts peeling .
but I think the tofu sold in the plastic tubs with water would work as well.
Sleek black color, and looks to be high quality construction.
I love the ring that holds the bags, I have never had one slip off.
the thermal carafe does not keep the coffee hot for starters.
Both are Wusthof so I would've expected the block to be designed to accommodate their products.
It works great for drying fresh cut pasta doe.

Looking at newer toaster ovens I've noticed that most are too large and bulky.
My teenaged daughter has been baking since she was 10yo and has always had a special interest in cupcakes.
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.
The Eureka is very reasonable priced and does a great job.
This Swiss -made, hefty ice cream scoop with the ergonomic handle is just the thing for making problematically hard batches of ice cream easily yield their goodness to ice cream lovers everywhere scoop by delicious scoop.

If, say, you use it to roll out cookie dough, you shouldn't use cookie cutters , although I've done it, carefully.
I expected more from Oster .
After reading other reviews regarding rusting etc, I decided to chance it and bought this bath curtain rod.
and the coating feels slippery.i see some reviewers feel they don't have to use linersor grease but the manufacturer suggests grease.
Sure, with a hard enough drop, they will still break but not easily .
The compartment that holds the water for steaming is transparent , which allows me to predict the need to refill it, so I'll never be stuck without water in the middle of ironing.
Would highly recommend Nordic Ware for its quality.
At least it doesn't have the shrieking whir noise of the hand-held grinders =
Because without execption, there is none better.
When it first arrived, I was a little put off by the looseness of the hinge in the back because it wobbles every time you move the lid.
The reason for the 4 stars is that the plates don't fit the Griddle all the way , there is a bit of room between the plates and the base, which is not the case for the regular plates.
I really like a latex pillow.
But - against all that, there are several qualities to recommend this sheet set .
This bin is perfect for organizing all sorts of small kitchen staples.
and I had it for years, but I could never find one like this in any of the stores, I didn't like the ones they sold so I just kept on using my old one, then I found this one on Amazon and I immediately ordered this one since this was exactly what I wanted.
Great quality .The lid seals great.
Pretty crummy quality overall, especially for $65 bucks for an aquarium pump and a timer.
The parts are genuine Bissel products so they fit perfectly.
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.
but I love how it looks .
I was really excited to use this set, but after having it I find myself really only using the larger insulated bag .
This is a nice, heavy (yet pliant) vinyl shower curtain that should last a few years with a little care.
I like that they have Microban and are BPA free (very important to me) and they are dishwasher safe and that they don't dull your knives.
I use it to boil water for hot chocolate, tea, etc.
They are pretty sturdy and it is so nice to not have shoes all over my closet floor any more.
We are putting these in the kids rooms in place of their white noise machines (on the highest filtration setting, the "white" wind noise of these purifiers is more pleasant than the machines we use), and to improve air circulation.
Great invention, but it is a bit bulky. I would suggest keeping it in the box so as not to lose any parts. It works great for drying fresh cut pasta doe.
There been alot of comments that these frothers break down after a short while or straight out of the box.
It's fairly quiet on low and has strong airflow.
That slight angle of the handle really makes basting -- and scooping out grease from the top of a simmering homemade stock or stew, or bottom of the pan while browning something -- faster and easier.
This little sugar and creamer on the tray is great for afternoon informal tea (that's when the hostess doesn't wear gloves).
I use it for traveling with our garments we make for our business, so it stays in one place, but it would of been better if the holes would of accommodated the clothing bar.
My particular set has tight fitting glass lids (this was not an Amazon purchase) which I prefer over the stainless lids.
I have used all the settings except for the sushi button as I am not a sushi lover.
I enjoy having something like this that enables me to make my very own kettle korn , and this is a pretty good choice.
These pillows-- even in the plush design-- are hard as a rock .
it is smaller than my pyrex 13x9 glass pan, but i love this white porcelain pan, i love the handles and the fact that it can be used for more than lasagna.
This is one of the very few things I keep out on my counter .
The unit's fan does make normal noise when the unit is set on maximum output but the unit it is not excessively loud and you can only hear it if you are within 6' of the unit.

So I decided it was time to be a grown-up and buy one that cost more but would last longer .After reading tons of reviews (including ones in Cook's Illustrated) I broke down and shelled out the cash for this one.
These work really well for muffins and cupcakes .
In the picture , the hamper stands perfectly straight but 2 of the folding creases on are along the left and right wall so the minute some dirty clothes go in, the sides pop out at the fold, which runs vertically down the middle of the left and right walls, and the hamper starts to bulge and lose its rectangular form.
I recently bought a plastic set of measuring cups and after taking them out of the dishwasher found that the marked measurements had washed off!
I like the cord rewind feature and the vacuum is lightweight and easy to maneuver.

All of our kitchen appliances are stainless steel , so we finally caved in and purchased this.
Update 5/2011 - I have used the slicer three times, On the third use, the switch would only work in pulse mode which rendered the slicer useless to me as I can't hold the switch and slice a 2 lb chunk of meat.
I went with this Espresso machine for the following reasons:(1) really enjoy Starbuck Latte and want to save money by doing home make latte(2) it is the least expensive pump Espresso, yet getting great reviews.(3) don't want to spend more than 5 mins to make a cup of EspressionHere is what I do every morning:(1) fill the water, turn it on.
So, after many a sleepless cough-filled night, I decided to buy this mattress protector along with a pillowcover for our daughter's bed.

due to it being so light, when you hang heavy towels , it feels like it could tip, so you'll have to balance the other side with another similarly heavy towel or garment2.

You can see when the canister gets full.
What a distinct pleasure to have this fine Creuset in my kitchen!
This is the first time I've posted a negative review on Amazon and for good reason.

I was given this item as a gift after I used a similar item and loved it.
a sponge holder to place a plastic one which was really gross even though I scrubbed it weekly.
I do like the swivel action on the vacuum and overall am pleased with it.

We opted for the Kitchenaid mixer and Calphalon cookware, and decided to skimp on the blender , figuring a blender is a blender and what difference would it make?It makes a big difference.

If you've never used a horizontal blade, the vertical peeling motion can be off-putting at first but once you get used to it, you'll find the downward - instead of sideways - motion more natural, and the longer strokes will make you faster at peeling and the slight serrate on the blade makes every stroke stick.
The thing that brings this model down to 3 stars, when normally I would rate this product at a 5, is the new 'imporved' mopping pads all have that dusting kind of threads hanging off of it.
That being said, the wide base fits very comfortably in the hand so there is less hand fatigue if you are whisking for any length of time.

I might suggest that in conjunction with this attachment for the pet that you look into the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Handheld Vacuum, Corded, 33A1 for the furniture as the Dyson groom is too stiff for upholstery .

I've been knitting for a long time, and have amassed quite a collection of circular needles .
I put the smaller one in the kitchen sink on the side that does not have the disposal and I can still fit the stopper on top of it if I want to fill the sink.

The lid has a latch that can be slid into place that prevents opening , in case you have curious/smart toddlers/dogs (we do).The one negative is that the interior walls are not smooth, and in some places have horizontal beams that provide strength, but also catch the stuff in the bag when you are pulling it out, and can easily rip the bag if things are wedged in tight.

After these arrived, my husband saw them on the kitchen counter and asked why I had them.
This pillow case is very soft and cool to touch, at least for several hours at a time...was looking for the coolest pillow case I could find, and this tops all of them thus far....fits my standard size pillow, but will "turn" on pillow sometimes as I toss and turn , which happens to most cases I use....could do without the frilly floral design, but that might appeal to some....I'd like to see this pillow in solid color and King size as well.
The primary use of this mixer is to make 4 loaves of bread/week .
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 .

What your left with is an item that will look used (like you picked it up at a garage sale).Also, the magnets top and bottom are in such a location that it is impossible to align the lid with the base .While the picture looks nice, this product, due to the unattractive labels and poor alignment, has been reduced to a throw away product.
The color is nice and bright--pretty much matching the color of an avocado .
I've tried several other timers and the West Bend are the best!!!
Receiived tonight and used it almost immediately I am the type of person who normally gets a frappe a couple times a week...keeping this in mind I figured the machine would pay itself off within a month .

And being aluminum ?
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 found that I could not remove my Lodge cast iron skillet from the oven using one of these, it took two.
Probably one of the most delicious glasses I have ever had!Then the next day, I made some white chocolate cocoa. I have a huge plastic mug, so before I put the cocoa in it, I warmed up the milk in a Pyrex measuring cup with the cocoa and after removing from the microwave, frothed the bejeezus outta that cocoa!Since Dunkin' Donuts doesn't sell this delicious concoction anymore, I tried getting as close to it as possible, and the frother is the key!After holding the mug in one hand on my twenty minute commute to work the whole time sipping this decadent beverage, I came back out the car two hours later, to find out that there was foamy, frothy goodness still in the mug!Okay, so I would have given this five stars, but the idea that I can't immerse it in water kind of irks me.
Due to the curvature, using these mats is difficult for chopping items such as onions, herbs, or any lighter object that will slip off.

The one saving grace about this thermos? It's very pretty .

The Dirt Devil comes with a battery charger and the easy and quick ability to empty the dirt into the trash or garbage is another plus indeed.
I had one sitting on the counter, 5 minutes after I took it out of the cooled dishwasher , and it cracked.
Relatively quiet too so it would fit nicely under a desk as well, at home or at work.
It is good and above average , note that Amazon itself suggests to use this for the "guest room, a dorm room, or a first-time apartment", this should give you an idea of what to expect.
The other complaint I have is the same as I have with Butterfly Meadow plates (which is why I'm not buying them) -- the pretty pictures of flowers and butterflies are in the middle (in the bottom)
The Aladdin 32-Ounce Collapsible Steamer functions just as it's advertised .Steaming vegetables is an excellent method to retain nutrients, color and flavor.

The glass is a little on the thin side, but then, so is my drip maker carafe.

That's actually why I am on Amazon now.
The plates are large , the bowls are deep and the mugs hold all the coffee I need (which is a lot).We've had the set for 4 months now, and have only chipped one plate and a bowl somehow developed a long crack from top to bottom.
I thought I'd save some money by ordering a pair of these rather than the real deal (i.e. the original and expensive Temperpedic pillows ).
CONS:- Tank is small, 1 gallon is for approx.
The Eneregy speaker is over 21 inches wide and this system is heavy duty enough to gold it up.
It doesn't leak at all.

The hose is very tight on the new machine and I hit myself on the head a few times by pulling the vacuum over.
im 5"10' 175lbs .I bought this for my guest room and laid on it this morning for about 5 minutes, it felt okay.
Overall, I really like it and don't regret it.
The product itself seems well made with a nice terry cloth top.
I've only tried the brown rice setting and the steamer setting on this rice cooker and it worked fine.
I've used a few of the modern freeze the bowl type machines .
My 14-slot-tray is Wusthof, and the 7-slot is Victorinox .
This device does exactly what it advertises, at an extremely reasonable price.
Returning the machine.

Great product for the price .
I keep it stationary & on high .
Imagine my surprise when I saw a label that said it was made in Omaha, NE .

I cook 1 cup of brown rice in this rice cooker and filled it up to the 1.5 mark on the pot.
This blower truly does beat cans of air..it blows them away !!
I have had this for more than a year , and I have come to realize that to get the ice cream to the right consistency you must keep the bowl in the deep freezer.
they just sit there and get knocked off easily ...but using this vacuum has been easy and it is great to know that it will do a good job when called on....pet hair, crumbs, sand, etc.....
Good for my back .
I did some price-shopping and ended up spending $15.00 on another brand (#2).
This chopper arrived exactly as amazon promised,but I'd bought it earlier than I needed, as I'd bought it to puree and chop homemade baby food for my grandson ,he is just at the right age now,so I decided to give this chopper it's first practice run yesterday to chop a few walnut halves to go into the scones I was making....first buzz was fine......there was NO second, third or any other buzz.....

I ordered these just before Thanksgiving , I did my entire thanksgiving, excluding the turkey, in slow cookers!
One year later, it stopped working totally and we have since replaced it with a Soleus Air CFM-40 40-Pint Dehumidifier--Amazon sells it for about the same price and it is INCREDIBLY quiet --so much so that I have just bought a second one to use in my own bedroom at night.
The only bad thing I can say about pyrex ...after about 5 years the writing on the sides may begin to wear off, which is what happened to my last measuring cup, for the price I can't really complain.
I also make all my dinner rolls and sweet rolls in the Cuisinart (yum)!Easily mix cakes, quick breads, and piecrusts.
When this MIU France Ceramic Nakiri Knife first arrived I was impressed that it appeared to be well made and substantially heavier than my Kyocera ceramic knives.

However, just be cautioned that using the magnet will muffle the loud volume somewhat.
a good product for a decent price and they are pretty durable which is nice for bathroom use.
You simply set the bottom of the corkscrew on the top of the wine bottle , turn the top of the corkscrew clockwise until the cork is out of the bottle, remove the corkscrew, turn the top of the corkscrew counter-clockwise until the cork projects from the bottom, and then remove the cork.
It was working great for about a month and then it stopped yielding as much juice .
I imagine this cassarol dish might join it in our collection of "keep it 'til we're dead" items.
and I've changed the batteries once .
Been using this product for 6-weeks .
They're so much lighter that it's not a big deal to wash out and plop into the drainer.
Only downside is they are fragile and easily dented.
The second thing that I don't like about this iron is that it shuts off quickly - in about 3 minutes when not being used - and to reheat the iron, you have to push the control button repeatedly to get it to the hottest setting - it takes 10 pushes to get it to the "max" setting on my iron as some of the pushes don't seem to register on the electronic control.
It's fairly amazing to see such craftsmanship go into a cheap 5,000 BTU unit.
I have 3 cats and one dog and it cleans up even pet hair incredibly.
They're more soft and comfortable than I would have expected for 100% polyester .
Since the handle is round and has no flattened areas, it tends to torque in your hands in certain cases.

I decided on this one for the price and for the handles .
The blender works better if "frozen" fruits are thawed first and fresh fruit, etc are cut / sliced into smaller bits and crushed ice instead of cubes.
However, we soon discovered a design flaw : When folded up, the bottom of the scale no longer sits flat due to the protrustion of the hinge.
But now here comes Wusthof with 14 degrees of sharpness ( you can't tell the difference with a bigger handle an thicker blade (from the top).
I ordered them for a full-size bed.
I've been using this frying pan for a few months.
To sum it up--animal fur on furniture is no longer a problem, powerful sweeper and suction-carpeted stairs are now a breeze to clean, even great suction along the edges-the reuseable filter is very durable and very easy to clean-very well designed, feels very balanced, cord storage is excellent-easily switch to hose and crevice tool , and it has great suction as well-glides effortlessly across flat surfacesThis little guy is so handy, I will sometimes get on my hands and knees and do a guick spruce up of the entire living room.

This scraper comes in handy for so many things.
It does open bottles but you have to really snug it up against the top of the opener .
Just pop out the container and drop the dirt into the garbage in only a matter of seconds .
A lot of the nitpicking is just that, but it's not (to my thinking) an $80 ironing board .
It's kind of difficult to extend the hose although you can completely remove the long metal tube and use it without that.
The tiki box is mounted to the frame using a 2-inch' brass hinge at the top - had to drill holes in top of the box to fasten the hinge with small bolts/nuts.
I'm an inveterate amateur baker, so I was thrilled to find these, and looking forward to making batches of nano-brownies and micro-spaniards .
You can put your hand on the side while it is in use and not get burned (of course do NOT put your hand on the TOP when it is in use).
Unfortunately, while this mold may be suitable for cold-molding, I can't consider it suitable for baking .Upon opening the plastic package, I noted a sickly-sweet chemical smell.
It is much quieter than my DeLonghi espresso maker , which just broke yesterday after buying it 4 months ago.
I figured that it said it was the replacement for my pressure cooker so I figured it would be OK.
Unbelievable quality! Extremely well made - padded; great zippers.
Doh!It works like a champ--gets my room cool in 20 minutes (about 300 sq ft).
This is the first time I have EVER reviewed a product on Amazon, but I felt compelled to try and prevent others from making my mistake .
I followed other reviewers advice and rinse the rice well before cooking.
If you serve much meat, I wholeheartedly recommend you consider this knife.

It's very sharp, at the trip to the ER confirmed when I cut open a finger by accident and barely felt it.
I teach Kindergarten , and I needed a visual timer that the students could use to pace themselves through their work (and to know when a break is coming).
On the second shelf I have my Dish Network 722 (fits perfectly even with all the wires coming out the back).
Smooth wood & no rough metal connections for scarves to snag on, and good-sized rings that will rotate up or down...perfect!
It was also in boring beige .
I felt as if I was wrapping myself in a blanket when I walked out of the shower!
Another option which I used is double sided tape included, I had plastic housed speakers I did not want to drill into, so I used the included double sided tape.
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.
Moving glass from the freezer or oven to even a room-temp countertop can cause cracking/breaking/explosions .
I tried cleaning it with baking soda and water as the instructions suggest, but no dice.*You must be very diligent about drying these IMMEDIATELY if you don't want water spots on them.
My husband did that and said it wasn't hard .
I guess he really likes slicing potatoes and grating cheese.
This sharpener actually removed the sharp edge off of two knives that had been sharpened with $3.00 Harbor Freight sharpener that looks like this one, but only has a single ceramic sharpener .
Well, I was skeptical because the price was so low, but this is a real knife.
As an added bonus, I've found that these are excellent for opening those stubborn jar lids .
Being Christmas, I had eggnog so made an eggnog latte, then made a regular latte and after that I made a sugar free coconut milk peppermint mocha .
For a <$50 food processor this product is great! The suction cup feet are a bit odd but really thoughtful addition - almost acts like a third hand to keep the machine from walking on the counter while running.
I pulled it out of the cabinet on Sunday for a party and it would not come on...my husband took the back off and the inside insulation was severely burned where the electric connects to the heating element.....pretty sure they will not replace at this late date, but am going to try....even if they do, this is still a definite quality control issue!
The foam came rolled up tightly in a box and upon unrolling it and giving it time to air out (new smell dissipated within 24 hours ) and return to its mattress form, it works great for our granddaughters bed.
I will say that it is not overly loud but it does make some noise (more like white noise ).
Maybe cute for decoration if you put them up high where no one can see them up close, but I wouldn't recommend for daily use.
They are the perfect size to hold a small bottle of spices, and they look magnificent!I have half of my spices in a rack on my fridge, and the other half in a drawer (this drawer is NOT large , I live in an apartment where they didn't think to leave a drawer for silverware, if that tells you anything.)
It stands up better (though I read a review from another that said it cracks , like the canisters)
They work well in the freezer, fridge, cupboard, and microwave .
The price of this was a bit more than some of the other brands, but it was well worth it!I know we will use this even more in the winter time, for other hot drinks and soups .
My wife and I cook a lot and I don’t like using artificial spray cans .
This is a fanatic kit that offers everything you need to make beer besides the ingredients and the bottle caps.
I was a little surprised that the legs don't lock into place (at least not that I can find), so you'll have to use both hands to hold the legs in place while sitting the cooling racks on the counter or stacking them onto each other.
and I purchased two .You'd think an item like this is something simple, but there really is a difference between using any old stick and this push puller of power.
It also gets pretty hot after 10 minutes which honestly is a long time.
There are two options on this machine, Chop and Grind which are controlled by your touch.
My Daughter and both have reactions to theses especially Carrageenan .
One small issue is that if you lose power this heater will not automatically turn back on when power is restored.
Its handy and easy to hold and the cord is very long so it stretch a long way.
The replacement piece took about 3 weeks to get to me but thankfully, unlike other reviewers I got the correct piece the first time.
My older pan weighs twice what the new one does, and I was replacing it because the non-stick coating was worn.
Love the controls on the base and not on the kettle itself.
They wash up great in the dishwasher and are a substantial weight - not too heavy, but they don't feel cheap.
I have a Vitamix and am used to the power of this type of blender.
Anyway, set is dinner party worthy and have real (nice!)
This set is ideal for empty-nesters or recipes that call for about two servings.

One of the old trays recently broke when dropped on a sharp object , so i ordered this tray being reviewed.
GOOD FEATURES: 1 .
I love OXO products, there is not one that did not work or was not beautifully made.
Unlike the French ovens, this one has little spikes on the inside of the lid which serve to baste the food as it roasts.
It's important that you read the instructions and especially important that you prime the unit before you use it.
Also, the dark coating has had a tendency to burn the edges of my products before they are through cooking in the middle.
I wish I could give this pan a better review however, the one I received did not come properly "Pre-Seasoned." I can detect rust underneath which was not cleaned off prior to factory seasoning.
Moreover, it is large enough to hold more than a few items .
When I saw that they had a mold for Shot Glasses I knew I would give it a try.
The hoses are stiff-no flexibility at all.
I have to laugh the UPS driver though it was a bowling ball , i wasnt too pleased with the shipping as the box was crushed/torn in a few places, however the functionality of this Stone Mortar and Pestle is WONDERFUL!
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.
The hanging bars are thin enough that doors can close with these attached.
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.
Cons: The pan is NOT constructed of magnetic stainless steel. It has a raised portion in the bottom with a rather deep channel around the outer edge.
Overall, I am very pleased with this vacuum.
So, overall, for me, it's just "ok" -nothing spectacular but good enough.
Even if I had had tools, I was leery of gripping the threads of the connector with a pliers to twist them out of the pole and possibly damaging them.
The ad claims that the filter is " dishwasher safe ."
Shortly after I received the hot pot, the spring hinge of the lid stopped springing.
Seems like whatever the catch is that keeps it down was broken.
When I came back to it later, I noticed the handle was warm to the touch.
They seem to be very durable for glass, the sizes are very handy for storing leftovers and taking your lunch to work, the lids fit well, I don't have to worry about horrible chemicals leaching like plastic containers, and best of all they're one of the few things I can find that are still made in the USA .
If I can still say so in 6 months , then I would have to say the higher cost was justified.
Both of mine are black , so I use different colors of soap & lotion so that no one gets confused.
I got this to use with various loose-leaf teas from Teavana , as I was tired of needing to use the french press every time I wanted some.
As others have mentioned, it's harder to get the cubes out of the try .
It comes with an iced tea function that I found myself using more than anything else since I love iced tea.
The first thing I noticed it the automatic blender action .
I've read complaints about the cord length ( 3 ft ), but any longer would make it awkward to wind and carry.
This is the correct HF-2 filter, but the version that was shipped was the one with the Arm and Hammer baking soda bag on the back.
I call mine a &#3 4 ;thickie" because I put less water in the 32-oz.
Instead I recommend the Duck non-adhesive shelf liner.
Amazon immediately sent me out a replacement and I had it in less than 2 days; but the replacement had even less packing and had similar but smaller dents from banging around inside the box.
Returns was easy, and new ones arrived 2 days later.
Shaved ice is fine and pretty fast. From time to time, when it seems slow to shave, remove and rinse blade area because sometimes ice builds up at where the blade is.
I make Cream of Wheat about once a week (more if I'm sick) and it requires a whisk to stir it into the boiling water so it doesn't lump together.
I generally use one grind size so I'm not doing a lot of shifting between sizes so cannot speak to haow well the grinder holds up to constant grind adjusts.
KitchenAid has been making fine kitchen appliances for nearly a century now - their first product having been a mixer !
I get a plastic bag out and put the tray over it than I gently hit the tray with hammer to help the shooters come out and than I catch them in the bag (I had lots fall out and end up on the floor before i started catching them in a bag.
The step lever works well, gently opening and closing.
The first thing I tried was bell pepper , which I cut into 1 1/2 to 2" pieces.
Our only complaint is that the battery life is pretty short and the charge time is pretty long .
Its attractive and it has 6 separate sections to put stuff in.

I've tried other glass storage container sets, and to me Rubbermaid makes the tightest seal.
I wanted to purchase a food saver to use when I made smoothies .
It is like sleeping on granite .
I also have a problem with the lip of the holder being cut into my food.
We have about 35 of the 10 oz.
I wish I could leave this coffee maker 0 stars...
I submitted a request that this information be added.
Was looking for an low cost Chinese Chef's knife that performs well at an affordable price.
This is an amazing product - When I ordered it I was concerned that because if was queen/king it would be stretched to the hilt to fit around my king-sized bed - but not the case - Plenty of room to spare - and it was long enough for my extra-deep mattress.
I ordered 10 ivory ones (two different sizes) on a Saturday night and they arrived by Wednesday.
The squeezer looks nice and sturdy, and has a good heft, which is good since you need to put a little bit of elbow grease into it to get your juice.
I love this timer so much that now I've bought four of them
Beauty, function, lifetime guarantee, and great price (here at Amazon).
It also comes with a spare rubber piece that goes against the ceiling (that I nearly threw out as it was attached to some packaging inside the box with a bit of tape.)Some trays have large holes to place the bottle lids through when you need to turn your shampoo, conditioner, etc upside down and still keep them on the unit.
(And the fact it's cheaper plastic means you really shouldn't set it on your stove top but on the counter next to your stove which, again, kind of defeats the purpose, eh?)
It also steams veggies like a pro.
Although 1 of the 4 pack was broken (Amazon refunded the purchase and let me keep the other 3) they seem very rugged and have thick sidewalks.
About a year ago the small rod that holds the lid on the top fell out.
Then, they bounce back to their original shape with no problem .
The new filter basket slips right into place. When you want to brew a pre-sealed K-cup, you have to remove this device and put the original basket back in.
a $30 scale and others might like to know:1.
All in all I am content with the cradle and would buy it again.
I would suggest making the end more sturdy and less susceptible to bend .
I use them for tossing and serving salad and find them very convenient.
I washed and chopped the lettuce with my plastic lettuce knife and loaded quart mason jars .
Even better, the breadbox keeps our bread fresh for several days without needing to double-bag in zip-locs!Because the paper bags become a bit damp in the breadbox, I usually take the loaves out (leaving them in their individual bags) and set them on the counter to "air out" for about 15 minutes each day .
Bought it primarily for use breaking down rabbits .
Doh!It works like a champ--gets my room cool in 20 minutes (about 300 sq ft ).
The float for the cut off switch is a flimsy plastic rod stuck in a chunk of Styrofoam .
I have used this pan along with the Norpro 3600 Giant Muffin Cups which makes clean-up a total breeze.
I've been a longtime customer of NordicWare products due to their ease of use, durability, and the fact that they're still made with pride in the USA .
What I found interesting was that the sheets almost have the texture of very fine suede like material while being a cotton sheet.
However it's not nearly as "shiny" as other reviews would have you believe and certainly looks just great .
It much healthier than the bagged microwave popcorns, all you need is a little veggie oil on the bottom and add the popcorn kernels and you're good to go!
It runs at a slower speed so you need to cut your vegetables smaller. Overall a great product, very easy to clean up makes using it a pleasure and not a pain.
It has an almost permanent resting place on one eye of the stove but for one simple reason: it is the best to have for the most part.
I'd much rather be able to capture the taste at home of some of the county fair kettle morns, but until I can invest in a machine and purchase the supplies of those vendors, this will have to do -- really, one can't complain much about four stars.
This review is for the green body pillow protectors.
It insulates well and keeps my water cold and refreshing.
He asked me to purchase another but I went to local store and paid $ 40 for a shark.
They are equal in speed and accuracy , although the more expensive turns itself off faster.
The 1st one was damaged at the handle but as soon as I contacted Amazon about it, they very promptly (the very next morning) shipped out the replacement press with no problems.
but I refuse to pay twice as much for their after market products that have no measurable advantage.
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.
Although 1 of the 4 pack was broken ( Amazon refunded the purchase and let me keep the other 3) they seem very rugged and have thick sidewalks.
I have SO much more space now and everything is neat and sealed.
And best of all, it's available in a range of fun, complimenting colors .
Well, I was happily suprised when this set arrived.
It was quite a pain to put together - my BF had to improvise with some drilling and leveling etc that wasn't part of the instructions, but he got it all together and we love it.
The set fits my daybed wonderfully and the bed skirt is just the right length.
The pans are quite thick and sturdy and the non-stick coating is quite good.
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.
a cotton sheet.
I have a small laundry room off of the kitchen which is also where my trash can lives.
This whisk is great because it is soft on the hand and doesn't require much pressure to control it.
While this does work I basically have to pump it a good 10x or so for each spray, which is bordering on too much work to make it useful.
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.
Since getting the new handle, I use clear packaging tape to help secure it to the base to hold it sturdier .
Would you buy car parts for a Ford from a Toyota dealer???
If moisture accumulates inside the bag, you'll want to wipe it dry with a paper towel to keep the fruit longer.
Finally they dropped it to $99 and I had a $10 coupon.
We have had this for the past 2 years - its been our second one by Shark and we really like the set up.
These glasses will make it clear to your guests that you're pouring the good stuff!I purchased this set of two glasses to replace two that I broke.
However, the decanting process seemed like such a hassle - who really wants to spend time pulling a decanter off a shelf just to have to wash it later - plus, you have to wait, and as Inigo Montoya so eloquently said, "I hate waiting." Now, the problem is solved!
Also, I wish that the black rubber stoppers along the bottom were also present on the four corners of the rack .
This version has some design improvements , including a larger opening to refill the soap chamber, a rubber dispensing "tip" and the elimination of a lower front foot that used to get soap scum/residue and water spots.
Very pleased I was able to order exactly the right size/weight rating due to the very detailed instructions that specify that the magnetic force is reduced by sideways application which is how I had planned to use one hook.
I bought these ice cube trays for making baby food.
However, it's not very big ( 1.2L ) which is alright.
These bags are very roomy and have a place inside on each side to slide a bottle or jar into.
I've been on a vacuum cleaner quest since my very fine Hoover canister vac died about a year ago.
However, I live in Australia and had the timer sent to me by an American sibling.
Read the directions and measure measure measure !!
It has never picked up smells or colors .Great, great kitchen tool.
But not cotton .
The support rods are very difficult to get together so I would never take the cloth bag out because of its snug fit which is what actually holds everything together.
I have a pipe dream that the right carpet cleaner will restore the nap .
Overall I'm really happy with it .
The rubber seal gets in the way.
So, I just paid almost 25 dollars for some rough chunks of glass.
My older pan weighs twice what the new one does, and I was replacing it because the non-stick coating was worn.
I have had 3 or 4 kettles in the last couple of years.
More dowels, 15 total!2.
All of these in-sink soap dispensers have inexplicably narrow-necked bottles which makes them very difficult to fill without crawling underneath the sink and unscrewing the bottle.
I like the iron... the size, the look of it, the ceramic and titanium soleplate, the way the water is easy to add.
I've used this egg timer many times and my eggs always turn out perfect.
the morning , I decided to buy the 12 cup so that I could save myself a few minutes.
Even now back at home, I still love using this hamper for toting my cloths to the washer and dryer .
These filters are pure white, leave no paper taste, hold up well (important when you're dumping grounds) and have a nifty little finger tab that makes the filter easy to open.
These are minor gripes though, and as a result I give it a solid 4 stars .
My complaint is they get so hot when in use on the stovetop , and the handles are so low, they are difficult to grasp with a pot holder, which is necessary to use to lift them.
Nice solid construction, and although the design looks really tiny in the picture, it is not so narrow in reality.
When I have a passenger in my front seat I would put my purse on the back seat ...the new car had much more room back there and I could no longer get my purse back!
I had a tower fan for over 8 years and it suddenly died and they didn't make it anymore.
It works great, the cookies don't stick to it .
Since they're NONSTICK coated, it is very important to protect the nonstick coating!I ordered many times from Amazon before, very upset at what I saw this time.
These are really nice non-stick pans.
The popcorn burns at 3 minutes, at 2:45, at 2:30, and even at 2:15 (when the majority of the kernels are still unpopped).
a shoe when you pack) and, along with an electric hot water boiler, we had the best coffee on the ship and before room service ever woke up.
I tried the Nutribullet 600 and 900 watt models, and although they are powerful and make great smoothies , they are 5 to 8 times more expensive than this little guy, which works just fine.
We received an EC701 model for our wedding, which died after almost 5 years of daily use.
It's good looking enough to keep on the countertop all the time.
These hangers are worthless, and even put holes in your garbage bag when you throw them away.
You must be careful not to bump it because it can tip over easily and spill out the water all over the place .
I tried the little face towels first just to make sure I was getting something I would like before I invested in the full set.
I was told thatconsidering the damage to the frame they would probably just replace the item .
I buy Dial antibacterial hand soap in large eco-friendly refill bags (Dial Eco-Smart Pomegranate & Tangerine Antibacterial Moisturizer Hand Soap Refill ) and pour it into this dispenser, using it as a soap dispenser in my home bathroom.
I would have given five stars except for the need to place product on an even floor.
Bought this over a month ago because I am so tired of using a hand can opener when I spend a lot of time cooking for a large family.
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.
It was 3 inches taller.
They are super plushy but still have a great amount of support.
Now we're again finding it indispensable for number two and three (now ages 1, 3, and 5)I like it for:1) Handle installs and removes quickly and easily.2) vacuum hangs easy on the charger - some other ones we've had are tricky to pop into the charger correctly if you want it to be installed vertically.3) Power roller bar - really sucks up those cheerios quickly, even on hard floors.4) Easily removable battery - charger has a second battery charging slot so you can swap out.
Instead of a rich, ocean blue, they are a candy-colored blue .
a 12 amp motor and comes with a two-year warranty (Note: stated warranty on Amazon site is two years, on bottom of canister states one year).
Colored, four inch, four blade metal fans that sure do look like those shown in this listing are sold at my local flea market for $7.
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.
Think this might be great for brewing tea , so I'll hang on to it for the next time I'm sick
It was exactly what I was looking for!I also have to say that this seller is great! World of Futons shipped this the day after I ordered (which was Saturday) and I had it by Wednesday!
Pros: Lightweight Cleans up the smallest particles of dust and dirtCons:Hard to get cornersLeaves hair, bobby pins, and other debris behindDo I recommend?
I love this ricer .
It keeps coming off. This is pretty annoying.
We drink a lot of juice and got the Juiceman to save a bit of money and also get a better-tasting juice.
It's not that using the iron is so terribly difficult but, with garments made of linen or wool, you can often iron in such a way that a seam becomes permanently visible .
Nice design, but apart from that, it's useless .
a large family .
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.
Sure they get food stains on their finish and on the rivets , but a little Bon Ami on a non-metallic scubbing pad and it comes right off and they're good as new!
The Hoover is much lighter and has a longer & more flexible hose but to use the handheld part, you have to manually disconnect and then reconnect the hose.
The item came in no time flat and it's been a wonderful addition to our tiny kitchen
So far, I am happy to recommend this item wholeheartedly!
Oh yeah, and the disgusting taste/smell is impossible to ignore or get rid of.
That's why I gave 4 stars .
Well, the principle is OK, but this expensive wok does not work any better than our aluminum electric wok .
I used it on my bedroom carpet, and it cleaned up new messes (cat barf ) admirably.
I've owned two other bialetti moka pots in the past.
This weekend my Chardonnay stayed refreshingly cold for well over the hour it took us to finish it. The attached aerator is a most appreciated bonus.
I will need to cut a 120mm round hole for the fan and some other vent holes in the back of the desk.
I use it on the steps, hard floors, in the bathroom - We are getting ready to sell our house and it's great to just zoom through the house first thing in the morning .
5 stars ....enjoy
The section for the sponge has some angles that collect a lot of water/grime and it's quite difficult to properly clean this out.
For example, I don't use it for mashed potatoes anymore because they come out too creamy ... just a weird consistency, But for potato soup it is perfect.
The dust holder just barely stays on the unit; the button that holds it in place barely fits right.
All for the same reason; they are too floppy .These pans are way too floppy to use on their own.
The top is wide enough to allow for a good grip but doesn't add a ton of weight.
It does technically fit my Eureka Air Speed bagless vacuum , but that's not to say it actually attaches or fits by itself.
I love the longer cord, which is perfect - long enough to make a real difference but not so long it gets in the way.
It rotates to open and close. It feels sturdy and well balanced.
He said it looked just like the quilts his grandmother used to make and she made alot!
It was way too big for my box spring , but that's a minor issue.
The second Brita pitcher I was defective when i got it
The joint between the plastic base and the metal had started to corrode.
A friend of mine paid about $75 bucks more for theirs, and they don't like it...
I do six rooms and a hallway, all wood and tile, in about an hour.
The AC was 67 lbs. so It was a bit of a struggle, but this made it so much easier to install.
I purchased the santoku 6" and it's awesome (although it chips very soon).
The Amazon reviews are mixed, and for good reason.
We have stone tiles in the kitchen and I've been finding it hard to clean lately.
We have had this for the past 2 years - its been our second one by Shark
I've used them in boiling water and hot oil with no problem.
Simple to use, plug in, when the second light turns green , put in what your cooking close the lid and in two to three minutes, your finished.
I had previously purchasedEureka Enviro Hard-Surface Floor Steamer,313Aand have used it for several months , however it was pretty limited in its cleaning abilities, so I was very excited to try out thisBlack & Decker BDH1800SM Handheld Steamer.
They easily go into the dishwasher , even when you don't have a whole lot of room, they're so flexible, they fit just about anywhere.
Think of this as a dirt devil on a stick .
The cutting edge is slightly shorter on the G/P due to the bolster which also may make sharpening more difficult than with the Silverpoint II.
I received a replacement set from Amazon within two days (it may even have the very next day after I filed the report online).
The spray puts out a flat, uniform line...and then I let that sit for about 30 seconds and then i used the vacuum to suck up the extra water.
At first this is a very versatile knife block that can hold many things.
When cooking chops, and putting it in the oven, I had to cover it with aluminum foil .Now that I have the lid I can cook ground beef, and onions, for a Shepherd's pie.
It makes holding the grater much more comfortable .But, other than that this grater is actually really annoying.
I was able to do it alone with no help from my husband .
I have had FarberWare cook wear for over fifty years, so am counting on these bringing good service .
It's also handy for getting pet hair off of couches and chairs and cleaning out the car at home.
I am 100% pleased with the product and can highly recommend it.
I have made about ten different recipes from this book and they all have been perfect.
It's safe and free of chemicals and plastics, really good at repelling liquids and makes NO NOISE when you lay on it.
Not a problem, unless you want to brew two cups - with the two minute recommended wait, it takes ten minutes .
The kettle has always been very loud when operating .
I took it out of the box filled the unit with two gallons of water plugged it in, and cool air was abound.
I swore years ago that I would NEVER buy another Euro-Pro product because they are all JUNK.
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.
All-in-all, you won't go wrong with this iron unless you do A LOT or ironing ...then you'll find yourself making lots of trips to the sink for a refill.
Pros: Size and shape give you the classic twelve inch width, but the stir fry depth make it virtually impossible to slosh contents over the side.
Great invention , but it is a bit bulky.
This ricer really aims the riced items downward into the bowl, which I appreciate.
I have never felt that the old-fashioned basting brushes were all that sanitary, because you really can't clean between the bristles.
No more plastic picks or those ugly swords for the olives in martinis or the fruit in cocktails.
I used to use a stovetop pressure cooker but you have little control over the temperature/pressure (see below).As for the sticking issue, I find you need to be careful at the 400F ("browning") temperature not to scorch foods, esp veggies, flour-dredged meats--turn the temp down to 300 or 350F; but if you are searing uncoated meat, 400F is ideal for a good fast sear that releases from the metal.
It'll also be great at home when I'm done with school.
The interior pot is non-stick, but I would recommand you to take care it and wash it by hand .
It fits a super deep mattress .
It has a small stem that is made of plastic and will eventually break.
I also use them to crack eggs in; they're perfect for holding at least 2 eggs because they are see-through and because of the slightly oversized top of the glasses which include an elongated lip.
My husband saw how my shoes got organized and wants one, and he figured that two will fit in my closet and still leave room for my long hanging stuff.
You can squeeze about 7-8 slices on it.
I also use them to keep bowls firmly on the counter if I am whipping cream .
TIP - on the last use, I was able to complete a about 10 more limes by using my hand to turn the cone a little , which then allowed the motor to unfreeze and start spinning the cone.
I have to laugh the UPS driver though it was a bowling ball, i wasnt too pleased with the shipping as the box was crushed/torn in a few places , however the functionality of this Stone Mortar and Pestle is WONDERFUL!
It comes with 3 different sets of beaters that store in a container that the mixer sits on.
I have used outdoors in California year round, only moving it during the Christmas season when I change my lighting.
I can only give this a 3 .
The only question will be how well the plastic cup body stands up over time - I note that the directions warn against heating oil or fats in the cups in the microwave.
I like the clear sides of course, and the latches seemed to be snug and secure.
Oh, and you can make nice, small ice cream scoops also.
With the Kuhn Rikon Single Cup Easy Brew , there was not a single tea leaf in the brewed product!
On some jars, they don't even screw down tight --go beyond where they should stop, and then are just loose again.
Not only that, it feels cheap and doesn't feel like quality kitchen towels you might get anywhere other than Walmart .
It's actually 800/1200 watts
Its primary duty is making breakfast shakes/smoothies/frappachinos for my daughters before school.
They pill just a little when you wash them, at first, but nothing too bad.
a daughter a couple of years ago and have wanted one for myself ever since.
At 50-something, my hands are beginning to ache, but I still cook, though sometimes I get my son to open jars for me.
My only issues with it are that it's not particularly comfortable to stand on and the color is much more golden than pictured .
The seller, on seeing my poor review, contacted me and offered some suggestions .Turns out the problem wasn't the press or even me.
I bought ours off Amazon in 2009 under the name "New Comfort: NEW AIR PURIFIER HEPA IONIC UV FRESH CLEANS 3000 ft. 6 Stage w. remote"...it looks exactly like this unit shown here...the boxy speaker-like unit is the same, the button controls are the same, the readout...SAME.More dust collects on the front grids than collect in the back, which is where the air enters, from the back.
This spatula is excellent for smaller food items such as 1 egg or a hamburger in a smaller pan.
The only problem (and I wouldn't even call it a problem.) is that they are so thick and heavy it was difficult to wrap around my head.
I received these glasses as a gift to complement the 2 oz espresso glasses in the series.
i wouldn't put them in the dryer because if they shrink , they are not going to fit.
Now and again I mix in white vinegar to really sanitize it.
Maybe its friction, or a lack of it, but it seems every morning I'd wake up on bare mattress, and have to redo 2 or more corners of my fitted sheets.
I've been cooking rice on the stovetop for over 40 years but since we moved to a different state I can't seem to get it just right
The skillet that came with it is also great (but I'm not cookware snob
Then one day I accidentally bumped it with my shoulder while passing the fridge (I store the device on the fridge door ) and the magnet failed to hold it and it fell around five feet to the kitchen floor.
So I left it on low, running continuously in my home office , for a week, and it just kept getting louder and louder.
Oddly it holds the temprature well, very little condensation aroundAs per the hand wash, get over it, a soapy sponge and a quick wipe dry and back in the counter.
We just received two of these the other day and orde red two more today.
The receiver measures 17"w x 14"d x 5"h .The wire maintenance was a little trick.
The battery life is shorter than I would like, but nothing like some reviews I've read here.3.
I ordered two of these shelving units for my loft and they arrived in one week. First, the boxes were not real bulky.
But held a couple inches above it was picking everything up.
It is of good heft (not flimsy ) and makes it extremely easy to knead dough or roll out pizza or pie dough to an exact size.
I tried some "nicer" plastic wine glasses , but they were not stable.
I love it because it is quick and can add hot water while cooking in no time .
We just purchased a new gel foam mattress which was highly rated by Consumer Reports through Costco .
a good looking serving piece as well. what more could i ask of a pan that is so versatile and at a reasonable price?
I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
Alice May Brock is quoted as saying:Tomatoes and oregano makes it Italian;Tarragon and wine makes it French;Sour cream makes it Russian; Lemon and cinnamon make it Greek;Soy sauce makes it Chinese;Garlic makes it good.
With the metal feet that can rest on a counter top without burning it is a big plus.
From reading other reviews, my guess is the main problem is inconsistant quality from unit to unit .My experience has been mainly positive.
This is a reasonably priced toaster that does a fine job on toast, bagels, and English muffins .
I want to get one for my grandmother who struggles to operate any handheld kitchen gadgets.
The only thing I wish was different is that the holes in the salt shaker are so very small, I wish they were a tiny bit bigger.
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.
This means either one of three things: it is defective , you are pressing two hard while cooking/scraping skillets, or you are using this device in a substance and temperature that it was not designed.
I washed all of these before using and by the time they were de-linted in the dryer, there wasn't much towel left, one was shredded , and two others had strings hanging from them.
They were packaged in a box barely big enough to hold them with no padding or protection other than thin plastic bag.
My closet has a steel modular unit that has shelves.
Made three sandwiches with it, one turned out fine, but the other two were just a mess .
It is rare that I give 5 star reviews, but this grill is a really fun little gadget.
And equally good, it is built for temperatures up to 500 degrees .This pan worked perfectly for the bread, which popped out as easily as if it had a no-stick coating (which it doesn't!).
It fills up fast with the built in pump and lasts all night.
They stay firm instead of getting ripe too fast .If moisture accumulates inside the bag, you'll want to wipe it dry with a paper towel to keep the fruit longer.
I previously used more expensive coffee maker that did not last whole year.
Love the vented glass lids and coated handles .
So far, I have "fried" chicken that came out great - crispyon the outside and moist on the inside .
As an oven it might be unusable for most people.
My Salad Shooter (I cheated) is from a yard sale, so it only cost a couple of dollars.
I am very happy with both the size and quality of the Proctor Silex roaster .
It can be use for so many different things. I need a few more of these bongo bags.
I put my dryer sheets and detergent at the bottom of the hamper, however, because the hamper isn't heavy enough by itself to hold up if there are only a few pieces of clothing in the hamper with the detergent and dryer sheets on the side pocket.
This item arrived labeled as a " mixing spoon ", and has little to no depth.
We were both perfectly pleased that this cover is soft and not wrinkle sounding as you lay or move on it, it fits the huge double pillow top mattress and manages to stay on all four corners.
The rubber lip on the sides prevents items from skidding off, which is great.
The two identical square bowls are only .48 quart size (that will hold a little less than 2 cups of something) and the two round containers are 1.37 quart (6 1/2 cups) and 0.8 quart (about 3 cups ).
a tad bigger , but I just do.
On use number 6, the motor frozen, just making a very loud humming noise .TIP - on the last use, I was able to complete a about 10 more limes by using my hand to turn the cone a little, which then allowed the motor to unfreeze and start spinning the cone.
I like that it has a reservoir cut into it to help with little spills that can happen when you replace cloths, sponges or pot scrubbers onto it.
Frankly all this business of taking it apart and putting it together sort of nullifies the ergonomic aspect of it for me.
I also don't need to ever grease a pan with butter or pam, which saves more money.
I use 96% fat free ground beef, which is pretty dry, but the grease -still- runs out of the back of the unit.
The knife and fork are a nice touch, they are sturdy enough , but I find that the tongs on the fork are too fat to pick up lettuce, so I bring my own along..
This is a sleek-looking machine, a silvery color, lightweight with a carrying handle built in .
The notch at the end can push a rack without slipping, while the second notch pulls that rack right out again.
The lid is tempered glass, and has a really neat vent area , for allowing the steam to come out.
The motor seems good and powerful, and really gets the job done.
I also think the heat would be more efficient if it came out nearer to the floor , instead of on top.
So this suit bag is nice, a good size, and seems like it will hold up well, but it has one drawback.
So, I bought this mold , to use as an ice cube tray.
It had been dropped on the small handle end and dented, and there were dents in the metal trim ring of the lid.
I discovered that other juicers shouldn't be used for wheat grass because their fast speed made for doing other juices means that oxygen enters the wheat grass which breaks down the very properties you drink wheat grass for.but other wheat grass juicers that were the right speed could not do other thigns or other juicers, or cost an arm and a leg as a professional juicer.
This jug has a sensor on top that will remind you to change the filter.
I also own a universal lid cover that is glass and stainless, and although it's nice, I prefer these because they don't weigh as much and they are easier to clean than the glass one .
I didn't notice when I signed the lease on my new apartment that there was no plug in the bathtub drain.
The installation was a snap and included everything needed (except the power drill).I am not sure how well this heater would work in larger room
This 16 Piece Classic White Dinnerware Set in the Wave Design is both unique and beautiful.
But it's a utilitarian object to me--so although the magnets don't contact the blades perfectly, they do well enough to hold my large Henckels chef's knives with no problem.
What's great about this shelf is that the feet are adjustable .
sometimes I find myself wishing it was a little bit bigger .
Everytime I use them the cashier and baggers comment on how nice they are.
I have always had an economical coffee maker like the Black and Decker DCM2500 but lately I have had to buy one after another, trying different brands each time.
I checked consumer reports for well-rated insulated travel tumblers because I was tired of sipping on luke warm to cold coffee when driving .
In comes a present of this specific 3 way timer - since the onset and receipt of this - it has had issues - I've changed batteries each time thinking perhaps that was the issue.
Needless to say when it was all said and done we are very happy with it, the drawers are very useful and a good size and space for all of the components is perfect .
This juicer is great, it is slow but efficient.
It is very well made, has a shiny chrome finish which, coordinates beautifully with my stainless steel kitchen appliances, and is very pretty to look at .
My only real gripe is that it does not stand in place on it's own ; if you don't have enough material inside to balance it out, it will fall over.
No doubt made in China or some sweat shop, this kettle burned out a year and only a few days beyond its warrenty.
Fruit and veggies kept getting stuck and pieces would shoot out of the basket.
I used it Thanksgiving to roast my huge turkey .
You can sit on the edge of the bed, tuck in the sheets and get in and out of the beds easily (an important feature to us as we are over 60 ).
My first experiment was with watermelon, rum, Splenda, and lime juice .
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.
Actually even let our horses drink beer out of them (so funny) but these glasses stand the test of time...
I bought two different sets of these containers and am posting the same review to each.
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.
As much as Espro wants to advertised this pitcher is easy to use no-brainer...the bottom line, you need to learn and understand how to froth milk correctly using your machine's steam wand, each machine is different!!!I'm giving a 4 -star because once you are using the steam wand correctly, watching your temperature, this little pitcher does what it claims to do...a nice cup of steam milk with micro foams.
This crock pot was slightly larger than what I thought it'd be, so it wasn't as easy to carry.
Just got this item (3/28/2014)--it replaces 2 Hoover Flairs that I've had since 2007 and 2008.
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.
The colour is great as it blends into any colour scheme and the weigh is great as it can easily be lifted .
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.
Rather than try to peel apples by hand like we did in the past, we wanted something to speed up the process .
So I took down all my summer clothes packed them in the space bags , did the same with blankets/comforters I'm not using at the moment, and these bags did the job.
I have never had a problem with the acidity of coffee, and when I tried cold-brewed, it was the bland taste that lacked all the complex flavor notes that drove me away.
Forget all of those cheap plastic travel mugs .
Plus, it was clearly a used item - the packaging was repacked and the foot warmer was dirty.
My first batch was runny , I didn't follow the directions!
The only "saving grace" of this iron is that it puts out a lot of steam (and water) .
I just finished using my almost new Hoover Tempo Widepath U5140-900 (on sale $59 excellent value)to clean the fine remaining ash in my fireplace, my previous bag would have allowed the fine particles to escape... this bag did not - Kudos!
Upon first ordering it, it worked well but then the fan started making a lot of noise and wouldn't stop.
I make primarily lattes , so I can't speak for the espresso afficionados, but one of the reasons I love this thing is that it will actually foam milk well, which is hard to find in a machine at this price point.
intending to return to store for money back, or store credit, I ordered the serta queen from amazon the next morning.
It does a great job of circulating the air , is very quiet, and you can't beat the price!
I still have one actually, but it's a larger ( stainless steel ) variant.
I got the Rachael Ray Dinnerware Holiday Hoot 16 -Piece Dinnerware Set to use this Christmas.
so that dresses won't hang so close to the floor (it is about 4 feet tall).
Yeah sure, Hepa filter microns microbes blah blah, but it's the *carbon* filter (aka the Honeywell 38002 Enviracare Universal Replacement Pre-Filter) that keeps the house from smelling like a Bullitt County bingo hall.
We first tried these at a friend's dinner party , and immediately ordered a set as a gift and one for ourselves.
CONS:- Tank is small, 1 gallon is for approx. 8 hours .
I've also made large crepes in it, and the pan has made them much easier to flip and remove.
The tray in the warmer does not come out.
when cooking pasta, quinoa or oatmeal .
My last kettle scared the dog with its shrillness.
Pinto beans in three easy minutes ??
The inside was charred and dull .
Now that I have this little tea pot (it IS little....) and a teapot warmer , I can have warm tea waiting for me whenever I need it.
I also put the turkey dressing in this pan and baked it, it was a hit for our Thanksgiving dinner.
Both skillets need to be good and hot!It's not too bad to clean up -- provided you keep it very well seasoned, and get the toothed Lodge Grill Pan Scraper 2-Pack (overpriced imo, but I would not want to tackle cleaning this skillet without it).
The only thing I dislike so far about the Breville BJE200X is the pulp collector size since I juice a lot on a daily basis so I have to empty the pulp collector more often than the Jack Lalanne PJP Power Juicer Pro.
The lids are air tight , never had a leak.
I bought the set as a gift for my daughter and surprised her by putting the topper on while she was at work (the foam wasn't arriving until the next day )
One reviewer stated they couldn't measure less than 10 grams with any accuracy, but I did not have the same experience, as I repeatedly measured 1 gram.
This product gets two thumbs up from me!Disclosure: I received a sample product to review in exchange for my honest opinion.
I bought this bread machine because I was really tired of buying bread at the store that listed ingredients on the bag that were about as long as the white pages.
It says "no tools", but I found it handy to have a rubber mallet for tapping pieces into place.
Probably Cost considerations led the manufacturer to cut corners!
I have a great couch from Ethan Allen but I'm just sick of the color.
What I like the best, Ice in a cup, favorite drink and instantly the glass you hold is ice cold ..Trust me on this..to cool.
The seal around the edge of the plunger is tight, and the mesh is very fine, so I have not had any trouble with grounds ending up in the cup.
I have already owned a couple of similar chopper/dicers .
I was looking for a very firm twin xl mattress.
There have been times, because of the frame and the size of the picture that I have had to modify the hook to bring the picture a little closer to the wall, but that's the worst I can say and even then, I continue to buy the product because it's so easy to use and so successful at holding the pictures in place without destroy the wall or having pictures fall.
Since this unit isn't as powerful as full size microwaves it takes a little longer to do some jobs , but the space saving design is perfect for offices, dorms, or any other small spaces where a full size microwave isn't possible.
I have a great couch from Ethan Allen
I went into major " resarch mode " when looking for a wheat grass juicer.
You have to keep it folded a certain way or the white side will ruin the look.
I can make it work, but I don't have the egg shaper pictured in the advert.
I cook professionaly for a living and htis does an excellent job My wife and I are pleased with results our favorite is freid catfish and hushpuppies.
I did a bit of research on frothing pitchers because I'm teaching myself latte art.
I was looking for a good quality egg pan and this is it!
I make them at least once a week .
One of the beaters came out during use and it stripped the inner plastic ring ; now it will not latch in place.
I love the non-stick surface of the solid, heavy, durable feeling pans.
This is a well constructed, easy to assemble, nice looking TV stand .
I have a lot of good grips products and overall they have been a very dependable brand for great kitchen and household items.
The 64 oz container I was given didn't come with a tamper and the mini one that came with my 48 oz container of course will not work.
I received these to try free as part of a blog review.
I bought this because I thought it would be worth it to get the knife block off of the counter .
I used to go through commercial fruit juice pops like gangbusters, but that can get expensive if you don't stock up during sales.
It's smooth and easy to use, and with the all-metal construction, I do not see this thing breaking anytime soon.
I bought two and they both were destroyed in less than a month.
No doubt made in China or some sweat shop, this kettle burned out a year and only a few days beyond its warrenty.
I love that I'm able to see what I have and not have to dig through a makeup bag anymore. I would highly recommend.
The extra wide slots make toasting any size bread very easy as does the basket that adjusts as the bread lowers in to be toasted.
Generally pretty easy to put together, sometimes the shelves get a bit stuck but you can take off black liner and it will go in then.
Alice May Brock is quoted as saying:Tomatoes and oregano makes it Italian;Tarragon and wine makes it French;Sour cream makes it Russian;Lemon and cinnamon make it Greek; Soy sauce makes it Chinese;Garlic makes it good.
I'm not sure I need all the spoons it came with but it's nice to be able to share with a friend, I guess :)
Juicing makes it easy to get my daily fruit and veggies, as well as the enzymes, minerals, vitamins, etc.

One of the reviews aid they used plastic wrap.
All he has to do is plug this in about 2 hours before lunch and its ready when he is.
I use a larger 13 1/2 " to do the bacon.
I now have six of these hanging in my closet.
For approximately three years I have used this grill pan to grill indoors.
The three size options work perfectly for our group.
If you set that up as a "pre-filter" of sorts, you'll not only get nearly a year out of your 3 M one, but you'll get rid of odors much better.
The price is also highly competitive , and you get much for your money.
One extremely nice feature is the narrow tip (that also has steam vents), which makes getting into those difficult places like shirt cuffs, much easier.
But in washing this item, I've found 1 problem.
My municipality has terrible, cloudy tapwater.
I make Cream of Wheat about once a week (more if I'm sick) and it requires a whisk to stir it into the boiling water so it doesn't lump together.
on bottled water .
Granted, these issues may have been avoided if I didn't wash the can opener, or washed it much less often .
I've been using this daily since it shipped and absolutely love it!If I had to change one thing about this Juicer it would be adding a bigger sized barel to trap the pulp , otherwise it's fantastic for the price, you just can't beat it.
A fridge in the garage in a cold climate is problematic.
This jar opener would be a perfect solution for the elderly and others who have weak hands or an injury.

To the point where all my waffles split in half and I have to dig them out.
It claims 5 to 8 seconds , but I literally almost burned my hand and dropped it in the process while waiting to read the temperature over a 400+ degree grill.
On top of that my husband wanted black sheets.
a quality feel to it that helps make cooking a pleasure.
I returned only the two broken tiles in the original box and kept the four good ones... then I received another shipment of 6 tiles... which had 3 broken tiles in it.
Also, unlike cork trivets, the OXO trivets can be washed easily and frequently.
I thought this corkscrew would be harder to use then the winged type, but am pleasantly surprised that it is easier to use.
The test of this was to cook coarse-ground yellow grits in it.
I store it in a container in the refrigerator .
When we are not using it, we are renting it out or lending it to friends / colleagues and we want the mattresses to last forever .
I gave this organizer three stars because it seems well made, however I couldn't actually use it because it didn't fit any of our doors.
To begin, I was looking to protect my new mattress from sweat and body oil (not urine, rain, floods, or any of the other liquids some others seems to want to protect their mattress from, judging from the reviews).
Of course, you can save $7 and still make s'mores without it, but if you know someone who loves s'mores, it's a cute and inexpensive gift idea.
This comes with 2 whisks but the little circle seems to fit one only, I guess you keep the other on the machine because your using it.
Eventually I did receive my product in fine condition, ( It's a rubbermaid continer , pretty hard to damage).
Update - broke after 3 months .
This mold is also tapered so it is wider on top than the bottom.
The plastic cup material doesn't get too hot anyway and acts as a good insulator.
So I bought this thermometer to keep tabs on the fluctuations in temperature.
Only get this one if you need the extra features .
It's just not versatile enough for me and it's bigger than it looks in the picture! Quite large when you compare to the size of say, a 6-muffin tin. I suppose it will save on having to start your oven, and the muffins do cook faster and cleanup is quicker.
** Nothing will revive my 15 year old carpet, but this really cleans deeply.
The system itself has good intentions and isn't overly cheap, but it is certainly not going to make the complex cup of coffee that a french press or Chemex will.
The handles on these are nice in that they feature non-slip handles .
I finally got a chance to use this steamer and let me just say a few things first:It boils the water quicklyIts very well madeIts pretty user-friendly (just fill it up, plug it in and steam!)Those great things being said I did have some neutral things to say about it.
I purchased this adjustable frame and the frame broke into two pieces in less than seven months.
It's compact yet has lots of room and compartments .
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.
Often the Whistle does not work .
Some kitchen tools are easy to overlook.
The only not so good thing is the rubber seal on the lids .
I had not noticed any reduction in sharpness and would never have considered getting this sharpener if it had not come as a free bonus offer along with a set of Wusthof cheese knives I bought recently.
I have since ordered a metal universal lid for that use.
One button:
If care is taken to use the exact amounts of water indicated on the included graduated cylinder, the eggs come out perfect .
The one thing that threw me off is how thin this thing is- extremely cheap materials.
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.
I received this as a gift from my husband when we were dating due to an inside joke .
it actually keeps drinks hot or cold .
in doing so you greatly increase how long the smoke buddy will last as the sheet catches a lot of heavier tars exhaled instead allowing them to muck up the insides ending its usefullness sooner rather than later, and it doesn't impede airflow one bit.
Which means it can draw up a precise amount of liquid (up to 3 oz. )
I had the Cooper Cooler for about a year and a half, used it here and there, maybe every couple weeks if needed.
Update: 1/19/2011I am disappointed that the case discolored so much and the lid cracked.
My wife and I had been using the ZeroWater pitcher for about a year until we recently purchased this dispenser .
It works well on both small and large cloves .
If it wouldn't have broke off, I probably would have rated it a 4 star (it takes a lot for me to rate something 5 star).
It can also be mounted on a wall if you don't have a place for it to sit.
I've only had the vac for a day or so but tested it by using it on all carpets and hardwood floors in the house.
At 1st I thought that the rings didn't rotate on the hanger as advertised, but I found that if you grasp a ring and then firmly push it a 1/4 turn , it will stay in that position....or any position between straight up and lying parallel to the floor.
VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THIS PRODUCT, WOULD NOT BUY AGAIN NO WAY!
I'd say the price is appropriate for the product and not a bargain.
Great bridal shower gift or a nice present for your favorite cook!
I have just paid $129 to have Kitchenaid repair my two-year old 600 series mixer.
The is also room for 9 steak knifes.
When I put it on simmer, I could see a bubbling " U " in my dish where the coils ran around the unit, but nothing anywhere else.
The mesh is really fine so it catches about 99% of whatever you're brewing - actually catches more than my normal coffee press.
Previously I'd remarked that vent tab doesn't stand away from the hole, but it does; you can even rotate it away.
Again, when I decided to look for a toaster, it must be practical and the price would be reasonable,too .
Although they recommend the knives be hand-washed to maintain their beauty, I'm tempted to put one through the dishwasher just to see how it holds up in terms of spotting but also sharpness.
I 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.
If you do not put the bottom in just right, it will not seal properly resulting in leaks !
an electric knife with a more powerful motor.
This one is great for stable use , but I don't recommend it for travel.
Wilton Nonstick Cooling Rack , 14-1/2 x 20 inch.
The cork pop can be a surprise, and one must exert some force to remove the cork afterward.
I needed something stylish but strong to go with a wall-mounted flat panel TV and this fit the bill perfectly. Installation was a snap as the wall stud was centered behind the TV, and I had installed the whole thing in less than 15 mins.
I ordered 2 of these mitts and I love them!
Roomba has taught us tidier habits and has keep our hardwoods grime free.
It is solid wood and looks lovely as is, but can be stained to match your other furniture.
I bought this to melt down butters , solid oils, and beeswax for lotion-making.
First off, it looked like it was used, and the light that was supposed to come on when plugged in worked intermittenly .
I'll probably wind up buying another one when my wood en soap holder/drainer disintegrates, as they inevitably do (this stainless one will probably outlast me!).
So when Amazon offered the Breeze at a really good price, I grabbed this one as a second one in the house.
Pros: + very powerful and works well on hard wood floors.+ Setting below low carpet makes bare floors easy+ nice accessories Cons:- older model had power button this has a switch half way down the body in the back behind a door next to a leopard.- no auto retracting cord (Previous model had it)Overall its a really good vacuum with a high bang for the buck value.
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 .
intending to return to store for money back, or store credit, I ordered the serta queen from amazon the next morning.
I use it for tea, oatmeal, and hot cocoa .It did have a bit of a plastic smell at first, but that went away after a few times of just heating up water in it.
I am very sure that the 24 oz Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker from Natural Revolution Ltd will not disappoint you.
The key is not to over mix because then the potatoes become gluey and heavy.
One good scale out of three is not a good ratio to me, so although I would rate the one I got as a 5 star, I have to give the product only 1 star .
I stored two half chicken breasts with sauce easily. Reheating will not only be simply, the small size prevents the food from becoming over-done and dry.
Then the first time I ever made a smoothie never mind with this machine his silence was damning when he finally said "you only paid 200 for that?"...
This are one of the best kitchen helps out there!
This stainless steel bodied rack measures in at 3.6" x 19.2" x 10.6" and features five padded hooks .
We have one of the older versions without the easy clean lid and this version is much improved.
Boring black tray, non-skid coating .
These hooks are exactly as described; remarkably strong even upside down, excellent for hanging anything from a heavy plant from a metal beam on my patio to a seasonal wreath on my front door.
I always wanted a cordless vacuum but didn't think it would really do much
Compared to some other racks that I've owned, it's sturdier, holds more shoes and doesn't crimp or damage any parts of my shoes.
One drawback is the very small capacity of the water tank .
A few minutes produces a half-gallon of clear, good water.
As any one who has done the research can tell you, the true expense with HEPA filters is not necessarily the up-front purchase cost, but the cost of replacement filters over the course of the years.
The silicone leaf handle is easy to hold and although the tea infuser can float a little, it does a great job of steeping a cup of tea.
This over the door towel rack consists of a white backboard piece and three chrome towel racks.
I am afraid that I just don't understand the attraction of this fan .
Then install the mid-point shelf brackets in the top hole for each leg and go ahead and add the board.
I BOUGHT 2 OF YHESE CUBES .
She uses it daily and will often make tea and coffee throughout the day now vs. only in the early morning time.
I have purchased three of these - one for me and two for friends.
The plastic is so thin it flexes at the slightest touch, which created the following sequence: Try and put the top on the base and first one side of the base pops out , get that side in and the back pops out, get the back in and the other side pops out , get the base all lined up and on and the float rod isn't lined up with the switch, take the top off and start all over again, continue ad nauseam...
So I'll go four stars , even though I did not think "why hasn't somebody come up with this before" as I often do with OXO Good Grips tools and gadgets.
(I have Samsung Galaxy s4 and it fits great, with EASY access.
I have " 2 " pugs who shed a LOT and this vacuum handles them guys and more.
Also, I like the handles , allows me to transport the basket around with ease.
My little girl got me this mug for Christmas and I really like it.
The material is stiff but looks like it might soften in the wash, and if a kid is using it, it will be washed frequently, so that's fine by me.
It's easy to use and produces a lovely cup of coffee.
Clean up is a breeze .
The lid has clasps which makes the bowl a good storage place for keeping your food fresh.
You should be doing this anyway to keep residue from building up , but it'll make the odor go away faster.
Its gorgeous. How many cutting boards can you say that about?
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 ..
One simply screws the needed pole pieces together, unlocks the bottom locking mechanism , slides the bottom pole up to the ceiling (you will hear clicks as its ratcheting mechanism locks on the way up).
The brush takes up a bit of sink counter real estate , but is very easy to handle and has held up remarkably well.
If not, you're missing out!Here's how you do it;Place the potatoes (I use Yukon Gold ) in well salted water with their jackets still on.
It's fairly loud , but it takes only about 10 seconds so it's not too bad.
The cord comes with certain length (~ 4 feet I think ), which made it difficult to place it somewhere where it can give heat from behind.
The package recommended that I lightly dust the mold with cornstarch but I used powdered sugar instead, with great results .
You can use any type of chocolate, but all chocolate will need to be melted first.
Be ware.. 10-cups refers to Japanese cups, which are smaller than American cups.
I like the handles on the colander and the nonslip bottom on the bowl, which keeps you from having to hang onto it lest it slips.
This small head is more rigid so you'll have no problems scraping out a jar with it (other products' reviews noted that if the end is too flexible it can't scrape out a jar of peanut butter; with this one, you'll be fine).
I've washed this, I've dropped it , and it's still going strong.
The handle on the lid has broken off, but the crockpot itself still works like it did when it was brand new.
This rack is thin and lightweight and to be honest, I wondered if it would hold my spices without the clips breaking or coming off the base; not a problem.
Really quiet , i never notice it at all when it is on the Hi or Low setting.
a slow cooker to be able to cook enough to make a couple of meals and something that worked and worked well.

I have used a Vitamix in the past (one of their top of the line with lots of settings, etc.) and found that this 2-speed blender works just as well - which is to say - it works fantastic.
This allows it to drain directly into the HVAC drain line in the floor, so I never need to empty it. Take your time with drilling the hole as the plastic is a little brittle, but as long as it's sealed with silicone/teflon tape, you should be good to go!
When I went off on a college internship, I knew space was going to be tight.
He also has trouble remembering to take outgoing mail to the mailbox , even if I place it on the table beside the front door OR stick it in between the door and doorframe so that it falls out and lands at his feet as he leaves the house.
Since my wife is really picky, that makes this item a winner.
Take your time with drilling the hole as the plastic is a little brittle, but as long as it's sealed with silicone/teflon tape, you should be good to go!
The material is basically chemical free, non-toxic, and safer for the environment.
Suddenly it was necessary to put foodstuffs and other items in large plastic boxes; even though they are translucent enough to see through, they're still a little opaque .
This salt and pepper set is even better looking and classier than it looks in the picture, I am very happy with it.
So I will be without a bed for over two weeks and then I wonder once they fix it will it be broken again in another few months .
The round tab I assume is for scrubbing at a difficult spot or along the rounded curves of the bottom inside of the bap
We have bought three of these in the past 2 years.
Now we're again finding it indispensable for number two and three (now ages 1, 3, and 5)I like it for:1) Handle installs and removes quickly and easily .2) vacuum hangs easy on the charger - some other ones we've had are tricky to pop into the charger correctly if you want it to be installed vertically.3) Power roller bar - really sucks up those cheerios quickly, even on hard floors.4) Easily removable battery - charger has a second battery charging slot so you can swap out.
The rubber on the edges scrape the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure that everything gets mixed in evenly .
I always know what size I have.
I am a big tea drinker, and I have tried other types of hot water makers, only to have them leak all over.
We are VERY happy with this purchase even after two years of use.
Both eventually ended up in the trash because they weren't fluffy enough to put in shams or nice enough to use for guests.
caps.*The Bottles are BPA -free.*The Filter is good for 100 gallons of water.*The unit measures 11" high and is about 7 1/4" around, so counter top space might be an issue in smaller kitchens.*The colorful caps unscrew from the bottles but are not detachable.*Replacement filters run about $10 to $14 plus shipping.
I bought the set as a gift for my daughter and surprised her by putting the topper on while she was at work (the foam wasn't arriving until the next day).
The result was a very deep but very straight/clean cut almost to the bone .
Two things you may need to know, first be very careful not to cross thread riser into base , I found it easier to thread the pipe from the bottom of the base to clean up threads and then put it together correctly from the top side.
The only drawback I can see is the price ; however, with everything, you get what you pay for.
but I am very picky when it comes to pillows - I tend to roll around a lot and sleep on side/back/stomach whatever I feel like at the moment.
I am a little apprehensive when it comes to reviewing space heaters .
a high-end quality category.
The peeler does have a serrated edges, so be careful.

This is just so much nicer than the plastic expandable tension rod .
In a previous review I stated that I was new to baking and decided to buy a decorating kit.
I can't believe how well it shaves ice; it makes great icee's also!
This is my second pair and the first pair lasted three years - they do lay directly on the sink so mold, betwee the flower petals, started to be a concern after three years, but, for the price, they are a nice quality.
Still, I prefer to wash it by hand , which takes only a few seconds.
The only reason I failed to give 5 stars the fikters are a little too large for my Bunn Coffee basket.
Pros:--Designed for different sized citrus--Measuring Cup ( 1 cup )--Easy to clean, assemble - and the lids snap in place and stay in place.
These are absolutely terrible pillows for side sleepers, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone (unless they're looking for a very flat pillow with very little shape retention and virtually no support).
At Christmas I received a really nice set of different coffee beans, so I bought this so I could grind the whole beans.
Of course it works on gas and electric too.
I have always tried to bring him hot lunches when I can, but that is hard to do especially with being in school and working .
Cons:* Fine powder particles tend to stick to and under the propeller area which makes it a bit hard to clean (for this, I will buy a small brush to do the job).*Grind button from cap which connects to body device seems a bit flimsy, not sure how long this will hold up.*Power Cord is a bit short (apprx. 2 feet)
The espresso carafe is cracked and it was never dropped or mishandled.
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.
When I removed the meat from the bag, it was still mostly frozen .
The first time I used it though I accidentally kept it in one spot for a little too long - now there's a white cast on the floor about 6 inches long.
I'm a big fan of Cuisinart cooking products , There pots and pans are top notch, and these cooking utensils are no exception.
I gave it three stars because some people may not prefer their coffee piping hot and since it does make a tasty cup of coffee with the three settings, I will leave it.
4.7 starsThis is a good cheap cooking thermometer .
My 4 tortilla shell makers came nicely packaged in a box with a free squeeze bottle (?) in it.

It washes up well, I have not seen any staining like another reviewer mentioned.
As the name would imply, this is a pan that might be used in place of a regular fry pan but its design lends itself to wok style cooking.
I bought the largerCrockpot SCVP609-KLS Smart-Pot 6-Quart Oval-Shaped Slow Cooker with Little Dipper, Whitefor my mom about two years ago
Once the gumpaste is made, it has to be stored in an air sealed bag .

Did I mention it comes in enough colors to match anybody's tastes ?
I have been able to saute onions and potatoes to a flavorful brown, scramble eggs to perfection, cook pork chops and the pan still cleans up so easy.
The flexible blue plastic lids do say microwave safe on them and I will put them in the microwave if I'm only zapping for thirty seconds or so.
After travelling in Hawaii , my Mom raved about water kettles and how it was faster than her normal way of boiling on a stove top.
It's big, using a 30 or 33 gallon bag, meaning more room for large stuff and less overflow between bag changes.
My sister bought this for me because I love cooking.
There is one inexplicable design blunder that makes this machine frustrating: the off/on light is hidden completely behind the temperature knob .
My old inferior knife could not even slice through celery without leaving uncut stringy bits.
then it must rest for about 2 hours before resuming again.if you want to do spot vacuuming: goodif you have a studio apartment: goodif you want to vacuum 1000sq-ft carpeted apartment: not good
I still love it because the ice comes out looking like legos , and my son loves it as well.
It is a “blade” grinder and should be used very carefully and sparingly to grind hard nuts (Almonds, Nutmeg etc) as that would blunt the blades.
To be honest, I wish I can give this Jumbo Muffin Pan 10 stars.
But overall I'm pleased .
I have four dogs and three cats and vacuuming is something I need to do daily to keep my house hair free and clean.
The design is beatiful and not overtop making them a a plus to use with the good dishware.
It was exactly what I was looking for!I also have to say that this seller is great! World of Futons shipped this the day after I ordered (which was Saturday) and I had it by Wednesday!
I make 5 cups every day (regular mug and mug to go).
Not a medium-weight or heavy plastic like you would find on a spice jar you buy in the grocery store (example: McCormick's) but a really light-weight plastic that you would find on a cheap toy bought at the dollar store.
My old Hamilton Beach pump machine beat the pants off Starbucks using pre-ground Illy from the grocery store, but the shots from this machine are too weak.
Another plus for me is this set can be refolded and stored in a compact manner , so between guest visits it's out of sight and takes up little space.
This pan arrived and I was shocked - there were not enough words to described my disappointment.
After too many frustrating times when I needed my smallest cutting board but it was already dirty from something else and I couldn't cross-contaminate things, I ended up ordering two of these 5x7 Architec boards, one in turquoise and one in white .I love the small, convenient size for things like fruit, olives, and cheese, and they are so small that I can just leave a clean one out all the time, ready to be used.
Gave it a try last night .
This is a great 3qt saucepan !
I came across this Hario Coffee Mill here on Amazon and it was exactly what I had been looking for.
It is well made, the seal is airtight and having the shaker built in is great!I've just recently discovered the Progressive line and am really happy with all their products so far.
I rinse it with warm water directly after use and wipe it out.
Heavy and is just the right size , this is my favourite mug.
It does not strain even my somewhat arthritic hands. In short, it does the job it's supposed to do, and does it easily and smoothly.
My wife and I had been using the ZeroWater pitcher for about a year until we recently purchased this dispenser.
With the Hoover the next day it was completely dry.
