Question: Does it leave a mess?

Answer: no mess to speak of

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. Thank goodness for Amazon and it's reviewers, because I probably would never have purchased something that seems so 'gimmicky' by appearance. But I took the positive reviewers at their words and wasn't at all disappointed...this works great! I had the larger cherries and placed them face-down with the stems removed (but works either way), and not a single pit was left in the cherries. <hl> I would have been happy with a 90% success rate but ended up with 100% and a speedy processing time...and no mess to speak of . <hl> If it doesn't work well for you, maybe you're not using it properly? Because I found it to be perfect. I'd pay even more for it now that I've seen how well it works.

Question: What product is being reviewed?

I've been vacillating for a while about one of these machines because, let's face it - they're EXPENSIVE. When I saw the reconditioned one here from Amazon I took a chance because I know Amazon's return policy is excellent.WELL! It's definitely money well-spent!I have several different flooring types - area rugs, vinyl flooring, hardwood, and a particularly miserable burgundy plush. This vacuum handled them all with ease, made that plush look like brand new! I was amazed, well almost EMBARRASSED, when I saw how much dirt and cat hair this thing pulled out of my rugs.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 am planning to purchase the low-reach tool and the soft dusting too!

Question: What was the product being reviewed?

I did not like this product. I tried to use it to cover all of the shelves and drawers in my kitchen and thought it was not very good quality, difficult to cut, and impossible to clean.Instead I recommend the Duck non-adhesive shelf liner.CONS:- very difficult to cut, especially because of the ridges- IMPOSSIBLE to clean, because of the ridges- small items are unbalanced on top of the surface because of the ridges (the ridges are definitely a negative theme here!)- hard to lay fully flat, too stiffI do not recommend. At least look for something without the ridges and that is not so stiff!

Question: What did the reviewer want to point out for other buyers?

Overall, this is a great trash can. It's attractive, or at least not ugly. It's big, using a 30 or 33 gallon bag, meaning more room for large stuff and less overflow between bag changes. 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.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.

Question: How is the scoop with getting ice cream?

I was so happy to finally find an ice cream scoop that doesn't break or bend awkwardly after only a few uses. This scoop is very sturdy with a big comfortable handle for those of us with big hands. I like the shape of the scoop itself, it's a little sharper and flatter and really does a nice job digging into the ice cream. Be careful though because this digging can lead to you puncturing the bottom or sides of the container. I would have given this 5 stars but after a month or so these little bumps began to form on the finish of the inside of the scoop. These bumps don't impact the function of the scoop, but they certainly don't look that great.

Question: How much of the reviewers house is carpeted?

I am satisfied with my dc26 so far.I have a standard 4 bedroom house with about 15% carpet and the rest hardwood floor. DC26 is very light and very easy to navigate. Every detail is designed with care. It has nice performance on both hardwood floor and carpet. The suction is actually quite strong for something this compacted. I wish the suction for hair is a little better, though. I don't have pet hair to deal with, but sometimes I find dc26 has a little trouble sucking up long human hairs. That's why I gave 4 stars.

Question: How long does the reviewer plan to use the product?

I am not overly thrilled with this pot. I would have preferred to have a larger opening at the top because this is difficult to fill with water from the tap on the front of my refrigerator. Also, the "whistle" is more of a hush. Additionally, I do not remember reading in the description that it requires a trivet (just a piece of bent wire) between it and the burner if you have an electric stove with coils. That is not an issue for me as I have a glass cooktop, but some might find it very annoying. My final complaint is that the directions say to use it on a low or medium heat. Are they serious? I filled it and timed how long it took to boil on a medium burner ... a full 26 minutes! So, why did I give it three stars? It gets the job done and was only seven dollars and change. I am seven dollars worth of happy. I will use it until it breaks, and then I will get one with a wider opening at the top.

Question: What should be done with fruit first?

...... we found that it is not as powerful as we expected. 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. Harder items should be added first another with some type of liquid before softer items otherwise the blade just spins. Don't overload the blender! The blender does what it says it will do, providing you follow the instructions and enjoy "thinner" smoothies. This blender is rather loud but expected.

Question: Where did he/she first used the product?

Like my title states, it is coveted by everyone who tries it. I first used one at my sister in law's house and really liked it. The next time I was there, she told me that some weekend guests had recently used it there and loved it. It "mysteriously" disappeared at the same time they went back home and she was needing to replace it (they haven't been invited back needless to say). I told her that I was ordering one for me from Amazon and she got one here too, as they are extremely hard to find except in some specialty stores. Well worth the money. It slices down through the hardest frozen ice cream with no difficulty. Highly recommended.

Question: How much does their TV weight?

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

Question: How many cups in a standard metal pan?

I am a silicone pan convert. I still love my metal pans and continue to buy them like mad, but I'm no longer afraid of the silicone.These are individual muffin or cupcake pans, about the same size as one cavity in a standard 12-cup metal muffin pan. They have lovely large and deep scalloped sides which make the cupcakes or muffins look delightful when popped out of the baking pan. These are cute served with either end up. If you're glazing or serving with a sauce, the smaller end up (bottom) looks great, and if you're frosting them with swirls of fluffy frosting, then serve them in the more traditional manner.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. They will be too tender and soft to come out in one piece if you try to remove them while they are still hot.Brush with melted butter or spritz with non-stick spray for the first use, and it won't be necessary after that. I wash these by hand, just because it's easy, though they are dishwasher safe. They stack nicely and don't take up much space. I probably need a second set!
