Question: What did the knife do to a finger?

Answer: very deep but very straight/clean cut almost to the bone

I like the feel of wood handles, but the handle on this is still quite good. It doesn't have the weight of some knives, but so far that's just a matter of "feel"As a tool for cutting, it works really well. It's very sharp, at the trip to the ER confirmed when I cut open a finger by accident and barely felt it. This wasn't while I was using it. I put it in a place that in hind sight wasn't a good idea. And while reaching for something shoved a finger against the edge. <hl> The result was a very deep but very straight/clean cut almost to the bone . <hl> Ooops?No urge to rate it down for my own mistake. The drop in one star is just for lighter feel and the edge flutes that haven't helped with any of the things I've been cutting. I had really hoped they would help but they haven't at least for cutting veggies or other very wet things. The weight is a bit of an issue for chopping. But maybe this style blade isn't used for that normally. Not being a serious cooker or chef, I don't know.

Question: What was the specific purpose for buying the two bowls?

Like many others, I bought two of these bowls to use as cat dishes for wet food! It was pretty funny when I found out that others bought them for the same purpose. I picked this style because the bowls are fairly small, but quite shallow so they're easy for the cats to out from without mussing their whiskers. My mother-in-law was very amused that I bought Fiesta dishes for my cats, but these bowls cost the same as the pet dishes at the pet store and are sturdier, so why not? The bowl is a great size for a 3 oz can of food, but will hold more than that just fine if your cat needs more per meal.Cat purposes aside, these are very nice bowls. I haven't used them personally (using the same dishes as the cats skeeves me out, which is why they have their own to begin with), but they look like they'd be great for small appetizers like bowls of salsa or almonds, side dishes of coleslaw, applesauce, or yogurt, or ice cream. I'll probably buy some more for us humans at some point.

Question: What was the purchaser's main frustration with the same type of product?

Discovered this device quite by accident while looking for something else. 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." Within a couple hours I had finished several batches of canning and totally love this canning funnel. First, the cut-out allows sighting of the product inside the jar as it reaches the proper fill level. Great!! It fits well on regular and wide mouth jars (even half-pint jars), is easy to quickly move to the next jar once the immediate jar is properly filled. Although I didn't sit it on the counter between jars, it does sit stable and well above the countertop so sticky jams/jellies, etc. don't get left on the countertop. It doesn't get hot from boiling product due to it's two layer construction, is easy to clean with a spatula to get the last bit into a jar, blackberry juice did not stain it, and does keep jar tops clean if the 'operator' is able to set it into the next jar without bumping the top of the jar (but it sure wasn't as bad as my very old funnel). But... "Designed in U.S.A. Made in China." I broke my sworn promise to only purchase U.S. manufactured products, but it does appear to be made much better than most things made in China. Maybe Progressive will decide to bring production back to the U.S.A ... ????

It doesn't get hot from boiling product due to it's two layer construction, is easy to clean with a spatula to get the last bit into a jar, blackberry juice did not stain it, and does keep jar tops clean if the 'operator' is able to set it into the next jar without bumping the top of the jar (but it sure wasn't as bad as my very old funnel). But... "Designed in U.S.A. Made in China." <hl> I broke my sworn promise to only purchase U.S. manufactured products , but it does appear to be made much better than most things made in China. <hl> Maybe Progressive will decide to bring production back to the U.S.A ... ????

Discovered this device quite by accident while looking for something else. 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." Within a couple hours I had finished several batches of canning and totally love this canning funnel. First, the cut-out allows sighting of the product inside the jar as it reaches the proper fill level. Great!! It fits well on regular and wide mouth jars (even half-pint jars), is easy to quickly move to the next jar once the immediate jar is properly filled.

Question: What may make it easier to operate the foot-buttons?

I've used my mother's Bissell several times. I got tired of borrowing hers and decided to purchase my own. The Hoover Agility was rated quite highly here, and it was on sale for $180 at my local Shopko.Pros: 1) Lightweight, easily steerable, less exhausting to use.2) Seems to suck up about 2/3 of solution laid down. I was not disappointed with this, and the Bissell did no better.3) Not uncomfortable to push around for an hour. I am 5'7" and was not hunched over, nor does my back ache.4) Does a very good job cleaning the carpet. No complaints about the cleaning functionality.5) 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.Cons: 1) Those awful tank lids. You will need two hands to get each tank out, and two hands to get each tank lid off. The tanks are awkward and cumbersome. They did not fall over in my sink, however, as another reviewer complained.2) The foot-buttons for turning the cleaner on/off and releasing the handle get almost too slippery to operate with a damp shoe. Grip tape may be in order.Our carpets weren't super filthy, but they are quite worn (it's a rental). The nap is mashed hopelessly flat in places - no amount of vacuuming fixes this. I have a pipe dream that the right carpet cleaner will restore the nap. This cleaner did not do this, nor does any cleaner, ever.Overall, I'm pleased with the Hoover.

Answer: Grip tape

Grip tape may be in order.

Question: What make the product hard to clean?

I bought this unit mainly for grinding dry spices. I used to grind them in a mortar and pestle which usually takes about 10-15 minutes with pain and agony, and that didn't even do the job. 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! The amazing thing about this grinder is that it doesn't use sharp blades, it's more like a propeller and I like it because it's safe contact with my fingers when being cleaned.This is an incredible grinder at an unbeatable low price, I might as well buy another one to grind coffee beans (perhaps in black), I bought this model in white.Pros:*Light/Compact and does what it suppose to do*Acceptable noise level (not as loud as expected)*Stylish Design*Best Value/Price*Safe and sound, no sharp blades to deal with when cleaning.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)

Answer: Fine powder particles tend to stick to and under the propeller area

Question: What does the customer say this is a great product for?

When this vacuum came in a small square box, I wasn't quite sure what to think. However, after taking a little time to put it together (with the help of hubby), I'm happy to say this vacuum delivers what it promises. It's a great vacuum for someone who has heavy duty cleaning needs. It's sturdy and has great suction power. 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.This vacuum is definitely built more for corporate cleaning than household cleaning - there is no twisting or bending, no hose with various nozzles for cleaning stairs. This is a straight-forward heavy duty vacuuming machine.
