Question: What is recommended when using this?

I love the Magic Butter Machine. It works perfectly every time I use it. I have infused Coconut Oil and made Butter and was very happy with the results. When you strain the oil/butter, I recommend using good quality cheesecloth and RSVP Endurance Conical Strainer, 5"Sold by River Road here on Amazon. I pour into the strainer and let it drip/flow into the cheesecloth. This strains the herb out and makes very clear oil/butter. When I had a question, I called the Magical Butter phone# on their web site and they had excellent customer service. The machine works great and the company really is there to help you if you have questions. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Question: What rooms is this trash can good for?

These trash cans are the perfect size for rooms with less garbage can usage, like the bathroom, bedroom, or your desk. They're fingerprint proof and include 3 FREE BAGS for you to use. There's a plastic insert in the trash can to allow for easily hiding the trash bags and for holding the bags in place. If you'd prefer not to buy the Simple Human trash bags, you can use grocery store bags or if you're REALLY feeling adventurous, you could skip the bag and just wash the plastic insert after you throw out it's contents in a different room. (Ex. The kitchen as that one really should have a bag and be much larger)

Question: What did I love?

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this coffee press, and tha fact that it won't EVER require a replacement glass insert is the BEST.The coffee is delicious and not bitter, which is why I purchased a French press in the first place, but for clumsy ol' me, this is a godsend.The coffee stays hotter longer than a glass press would allow as it's insulated.LOVE it...or did I mention that already?

Question: What item of clothing could this be used as after a dip in the pool?

Though it is suitable for use as a throw, or to sit upon at an outdoor event, this is not a very absorbent towel. One is not likely to get dry very quickly, unless intense sunlight is the primary source. I have found it useful to place on upholstered chairs during hot weather, and, since it is light, it is easy to carry if one is planning to sit on the grass for an outdoor concert or picnic. It has little absorbency, and, even after washing, a rather irritating surface. I do not recommend it as a bath towel, though it could be a pretty sarong if one is using it after swimming.

Question: How long has the writer been ironing?

So far, this is my favorite of every iron I've ever had, and I've been ironing for more than half-a-century. If there's anything to not like about it, I haven't found it yet. I love the longer cord, which is perfect - long enough to make a real difference but not so long it gets in the way. Even though I set up my ironing board against a wall with an outlet, I've always felt like I was straining the cord when using other irons.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. I also like the design, which looks and feels well-balanced, and Ultraglide is a fitting name to describe its ease of use with the "slick" soleplate. But I love that cord, my favorite feature.I'm expecting to get a lot of use out of this iron.

Question: where does the writer live?

I rarely gush about an item-but this little machine is fantastic! I kept looking at them for about a year until I saw the remanufactured version on Amazon at a more reasonable price than I had seen elsewhere. First I was pleasantly surprised that they shipped me the "Pet" version of the Spot Bot. Is there a difference between the regular one and this one? I imagine just the color and the cool paw print sticker, but I dig it since they are the main reason for my purchase. I have 3 dogs and a cat. 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. My first test was a couple of stains set in the rugs when we bought the house-used the set in stain setting-and they were gone. Yes, it did leave the clean "crop circle" where the stain was, but I knew I needed to shampoo them anyway. Several nights later-you guessed it-at 4am Riley got ill. I cleaned up the "bulk" of I and just went back to bed trusting my new favorite helper would be successful in the morning. It was. The machine is loud, and the dogs hate the beep at the end of the cycle-but you won't regret the purchase!Does go through cleaner, but I don't care and you won't either...

Question: What was "just what they wanted'?

This was a great skillet when new. The size, shape, weight and non-stick coating were just what I wanted. But after just a few months of casual use, the non-stick coating has begun to come off all along the upper edge. We don't use metal utensils or scouring pads nor have we ever run it through the dishwasher or tried to deep fry in the thing. Its just peeling off for no reason. I'm really disappointed for this being a Farberware product.

Question: What on the can holds the bag securely?

I bought this can because of the shape and it is a step can. I did not want one of those touch-less kind that seem to quit working quickly and use batteries. I have this same brand in stainless for another location, for the few years. It still looks and works like new. I needed a can that would fit into a narrow space, and it did not have to match my kitchen. This does that, as well as being made well. The very top of the bag does show on the outside when it is closed, but I don't have any problem with that. This does give a benefit. It makes the bag replacement fast and easy. Because the can has a lip at the top that holds the bag securely without having to use any special retaining devises. Or like my other can; having to remove the inside can and specially secure the bag though a hole. This one just uses that top lip to hold the bag and it is easy and fast. 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. The maker has designed this one to do the job without having to deal with a lot of other stuff.

Question: What was the problem with the writer's old model?

Just love the Pure Guardian, just received the H4500 it cleans the air plus keeps the humidity at a good level no noise.It doesn't last as long as they say, and it's a little heavy putting a full unit back in the wht. part,but its worth every penny. The trick to these units I found out is always empty the remaining water left in the white part, use the brush and clean the disk w/clean dry cloth each time. I'm on well water. Originally had the model H1600- It stopped working, only a little stream of mist. contacted Pure Guardian since there is a 3 yr warranty. They gave me directions on what to do to make it stream better. It did not work, they replace my smaller unit no charge, maybe because I had only owned that one for 1 year, and was able to give them a copy of my sale's slip from Lowe's, Lowe's would not do anything about it.

Question: Where did the author purchase the IngenuiTEA?

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

Question: Where does the author put the cup when it's dirty?

This is a beautiful, solid, stainless steel cup. I was searching for a stackable set of stainless steel cups for holding cold beverages, and this fit the bill to a T.These remind me of the stainless cups they use in India for water.There are no "indentations" on the side. The image makes it look like there might be.We've been using ours in the dishwasher for the past 2 months, and there have been no ill effects.Another product to consider if you want dishwasher safe stainless steel, but would like some insulation, isBodum Stainless Steel 16-Ounce Vacuum Travel Mug with Black Silicone GripThat mug is NOT stackable.For outdoor use, I prefer:Thermos Stainless-Steel 22-Ounce Leak-Proof Hydration Bottle.

Question: How many people were camping?

with 3-4 folks camping, i struggled with 4qt vs 6qt. The 6qt 12in is pretty heavy but is perfect size for our campouts. The 4qt/10in would have been too small. The instruction book and recipe book were excellent in getting us started. The lid that holds charcoals is a must since most recipes call for coals to be on the top and the rim around the lid ensures easy placement. One thing they do to help you get consistent results is to use regular charcoal briquettes, this made our first few tries successful. Lodge Logic quality speaks for itself.

Question: What is the powder used to harden?

I bought 2 CAI Tylose Powder a few months ago. I use it to harden fondant and gumpaste, it works great. For fondant i add a really small amount to the fondant i wish to use to make decorations. It will harden the fondant eventually. For gumpaste, a lot of it is needed, and it's actually added to the recipe. Once the gumpaste is made, it has to be stored in an air sealed bag. Otherwise it will harden really quick. This product is a bit pricy but it works. I recommend buying more than one at a time to save on shipping.

I use it to harden <hl> fondant and gumpaste <hl> , it works great.


Question: What is broken off on the lid?

I've had this crock pot for several years now. The handle on the lid has broken off, but the crockpot itself still works like it did when it was brand new. The only problem with that is the that it cooks too hot. It seems to get hot spots sometimes, and almost always burns the top edges of my food. I have to stir it all the time even on low. Honestly, I have no idea why I haven't replaced this thing by now. That's actually why I am on Amazon now. Good Riddance Rival.

Question: Why was the product bought?

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.It is not for the faint at heart to set a slow-cooker for 8 hours, in your dining room no less, and then go off to work for the next 8 hours. I tried this first on the weekends, and was not disappointed. Mind you, I was particularly watching temperatures of this cooker more so than most because it was not situated in its natural surround. It did not disappoint.The crock itself is hefty. The outside of the unit does get hot to the touch, but even at it's highest setting - not any more than what you would expect if what you have inside is to be cooked. If you want an "Easy-Bake-Oven" type of appliance - then do buy one of those.As for capacity - unless you consistently cook for a crowd this will serve you just fine.The cord is a tad short, but think this was designed so that the unit was used close to the counter top back wall (where most electrical outlets are) and to keep curious children at bay.Is it the best one out there? Dunno...that is for your to decide and based on your needs.I'm satisfied with it - yes.Happy shopping!

Question: How many paddles does it have?

We had a West Bend breadmaker like this one for many years. Finally the seals on the paddle shafts in the pan wore out and they got bread in them and siezed up.We looked all over for another breadmaker that made a normal shaped loaf of bread. Not a squatty cylinder one like most of them.The bread pan has two paddles, not one like most, and is shaped more like a normal long loaf of bread.We looked at purchasing a new pan for our old machine, but found this great price on a new West Bend and bought it.The settings are easy, we use our recipe we developed over the years and we get consistently great loafs.Great bread, great shape, great buy.

Question: Where did the person want to take the pitchers?

I think these pitchers are great. My reason for purchasing them was because of the airtight feature. I needed something portable to take on camping trips or picnics. They were knocked over in the ice chest filled with water from the melted ice and pretty much were not in the upright position for a couple of days, but the juice stayed fresh and nothing leaked in or out. Unlike some other reviewers, I did not have any problem with leakage while pouring. The lid needs to be in the right position for it to pour correctly, but it pretty much locks at the position it needs to be, therefore I did not have any problems with that. For the price, I think they could look a litte nicer or feel more.. expensive. But they do what they are supposed to and I think they will last through many trips.Pros: bpa free (at least that's what they claim), seals nicely so nothing leaks, rubber handle is a nice feature, locks into the correct pouring position, feels like it will last.Cons: not the easiest to clean; the sticker on it has the cheap quality glue that leaves marks behind, but eventually all the glue will come off.Overall, I would recommend these.

Question: Why didn't I just use the mini tamper that came with the smaller container?

I was given a new 64 oz standard size container for my Vitamix Creations Galaxy Class (QVC) blender that came with the shorter 48 oz container. 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. This arrived 2 days after ordering and fits and works perfectly for my new and taller 64 oz container. I now have a large and small container to use with my new Vitamix. Yay! :) Also, this tamper was only $14 plus tax. When I went to buy one from the Vitamix site I would have wound up paying over $19 after tax and shipping,...no shipping costs with prime and it was here in 2 days. :)

Question: What did the customer try to organize?

I bought this shelving unit while attempting to organize my kitchen pantry. It's been my favorite purchse for the kitchen, period. It fits exactly how I need it to (thanks to the expandable feature) and has a no-slip grip for cans to sit on. It's nice to look in my pantry and see every canned item I have now. I have an assortment of sizes...small tomato paste cans to extra large chili mix cans and this holds them all well. It seems to be durably made so I hope that means it will last me forever!

Question: What room (near the kitchen) is the author's garbage can in?

I didn't hang it on the back of a door I actually mounted it to a wall in three separate sections. I have a small laundry room off of the kitchen which is also where my trash can lives. I couldn't mount it to the wall from top straight down or I wouldn't have been able to reach the top. So I Split the track up into sections and mounted it to the studs in my wall. The nice part was that the shelves lined up perfectly so that everything is mounted to actual studs rather than just dry wall. I have the entire unit where I can easily reach everything and it looks like it was always there. Perfect!

Question: What can be cooked in the pan?

I was genuinely shocked at the quality of this pan compared to the price I paid. Completely worth it. It's a 5 ply, and the bottom is HEAVY. The lid fits perfectly and is also quite heavy. I can cook anything in it, it's very wide and shallow enough to pan sear steaks or saute asparagus or cook a whole breakfast like in the picture. It holds and distributes heat well and can easily burn, but cleans up just fine with some steel wool or baking soda. This is my go to pan for meats. Solid construction.

Question: How many tiles were broken in the next shipment?

First order arrived with two broken tiles. This is what I did... 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. So I think this is what you need to do to make it work... and they'll eventually learn how to better pack these tiles. PS: you'll need a pizza peel once you buy these, or with ANY pizza stone, because you have to heat the stone up to 550 degrees or so before putting bread/pizza on it... every time...

Answer: 3

Question: What was the consistency of the gourmet tea?

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. Oh, I am soooo glad I did! I've fallen head-over-heels in love with this infuser. No longer do I get "floaties" in my herbal teas, even when the herbs are very fine. I use rubbed sage, and in every infuser I tried before this one, the sage came through the holes. Not on this! I also have a very finely ground gourmet tea which would also go right through the typical screen (round). It doesn't go through this!The basket is large enough that I can make a whole teapot of tea, and I do. I bought a second one to use with my coffee. We use a very finely ground mail order coffee, and we don't really like making a whole pot because some of the coffee goes stale and gets that "burnt" taste and it seems a waste of good coffee. With this I can make a large mug and not waste a drop of coffee or even a tiny bit of grounds. It sure makes the expensive coffee go a lot farther. I would highly recommend this infuser to everyone!

Question: What does it make great, other than drinks?

This baby is the bomb! I bought this for my husbands birthday and I have been celebrating ever since! This does a great job making drinks! I can't believe how well it shaves ice; it makes great icee's also! This is a big machine so plan your counter space appropriately. The pitcher it comes with is glass so we bought an extra plastic pitcher to keep the drinks flowing. This truly makes great margarita's, better than any bar we've been to so don't hesitate to pull the trigger.

Question: What is the wine chiller ideal for?

I must admit I had my doubts at first. I have used a lot of similar products in the past and have always been disappointed. This is the first wine chiller that really works! As cold as the wine is it will remain at the same constant temperature during an entire meal. So far it has passed the one hour test. The only minor difficulty in in removing the bottle from the cooling container. the chilling panel hugs the bottle so tighly it is a little difficult removing it. But it is probably because of this design that it is so effective in keeping the bottle of wine so cold. It is ideal for white wines.

Question: What was the poster excited about?

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. The profile is quite slim and attractive. However, the filter is very shallow and takes a while to filter the water before you can fill up the entire pitcher. Also the lid is difficult to remove and replace. It's a bit clunky and awkward.I do like that the filter has a timer that you press to activate that will tell you it's time for new filter. I'm curious to see how much the filter replacements costs versus the Brita pitcher. Even if it is cheaper than the Brita, I think the Filtrete's seductive shape isn't enough to justify my attention.

Question: How many lbs was the lean roast beef?

Wow. this is a really big unit! I was able to fill it up with 1 large pineapple, 4 pounds apple slices, and 12 large bananas. This filled up all 9 trays. Works great. I also took a lean beef roast, about 3.5 lbs, thin sliced it and marinated it in a pre prepared mix. It took up about 3 trays. Turned out great also. Very happy with the purchase. I did not think it was all that loud when operating. Fast service from Amazon Prime. I think the smaller unit would have worked for a 2 person household. Unless you are prepping for the next Apocalypse of course.

Question: What is not loud?

Great little fan that runs on AC line voltage. I bought it to ventilate a desk with an enclosed computer cabinet. I intend to mount it to the back of my computer desk to provide ventilation when the door to the computer compartment is closed. I will need to cut a 120mm round hole for the fan and some other vent holes in the back of the desk.It is not loud, but it is louder than the PC is is cooling. In a quiet room it is definitely noticeable, but for me it is not too annoying yet, though time will tell. Perhaps when I mount it to the back of the desk it won't be so noticeable. Right not is is just sitting next to my computer blowing air out the front of the desk, quite close to me.One thing I wish it had now was an on/off switch. And even better would be a thermal switch so it would only run when its hot.

And even better would be a thermal switch so it would only run when its hot.

Great little fan that runs on AC line voltage. I bought it to ventilate a desk with an enclosed computer cabinet. I intend to mount it to the back of my computer desk to provide ventilation when the door to the computer compartment is closed. I will need to cut a 120mm round hole for <hl> the fan <hl> and some other vent holes in the back of the desk.It is not loud, but it is louder than the PC is is cooling.

Question: What is the minimum bottom size for a pot?

I have electronic stove. Its minimum bottom size for pot is 12cm (4.7 in). The bottome of this exactly matches this size.So ... good to cook.But in washing this item, I've found 1 problem. The gap linked to the top metal thing to glass thing is big enough forthe dishwasher detergent to get in. So I'm a little worried whenever I wash this pot.If a litte detergent is still left in lid, there would be a possibilty to take in the detergent before I use it.So I wash the lid just using water without detergent.I'd like this pot would be upgraded in that part in future.

Question: What will it sometimes do?

After reading all the good reviews on amazon, I felt save enough to drop $70 for this trashcan. No regrets. Must have 4 D batteries and I even got some spare batteries from amazon, also a good deal, in case the batteries run out. It's fun to see when your friends come over and watch their face as the trash can opens. I've had two grown men friends sitting there playing with the trash can. That in itself is reason enough to get it. Occasionally I walk by and it opens on its own but no big deal. I don't really use the on/off button or even the open/close button. Pretty trash can to go with the rest of my stainless steel kitchen!!Another great purchase from amazon!!

Question: Where would this be a preferred grinder?

This does an excellent job of evenly grinding coffee without the noise of an electric burr grinder, although I would not use it instead. This will be the preferred grinder on my boat over the also noisy blade grinder, since it grinds so evenly, whereas with the blade grinder you will end up with a mixture of course chunks to fine powder. It's a bit small to hang on to and will grind only enough for a few cups at a time which is perfect for me and my crew.

Question: How many cups of oats are used?

WELCOME TO MY COOKING LABOATMEAL: I ordered this slow cooker specifically for making my Irish steel cut oatmeal, for which it is perfect. It cooks the oats in three to four hours on low. If I have pre-ground the oats in my mini processor first, they cook more quickly than otherwise. To pre-grind all one needs do is pulse the oats two or three times in your mini food processor. Right now, I use 2/3 of a cup of oats with a dash of salt to slightly less than 3 cups of water. I taste for doneness at around 3 hours of cooking on low. I serve my cooked oatmeal with Vermont maple syrup, warmed, reduced-fat milk and topped with a few thawed berries or fresh fruit.OATMEAL: The oatmeal that I use is in a newly-opened can of McCann's Irish steel cut oatmeal. I store an opened can in a tightly sealed container in the fridge, and use it up pretty quickly.CROCKERY INSERT: The white crockery insert has handles extending beyond the two sides of the top of the cooker. The handles make it easy to grasp the hot crockery and remove it from the cooker, but you must use oven mitts before grasping the hot handles of the crockery to avoid burning your fingers. Because the bottom of the crockery is rough and could scratch the counter top, I keep a good-sized trivet next to the cooker when I am ready to remove the crockery.COVER: The cover has a tightly sealed black gasket around the bottom which prevents the water from seeping out of the slow cooker. When you lift the cover to test for doneness, the many water droplets that have accumulated at the underneath of the cover are very hot, so avoid burning yourself or your counter tops.

Question: What website is the customer ordering another mixer from?

Contrary to what you may read in the reviews - this product CAN HANDLE protein powder and water, provided you are not trying to make it so thick the spoon stands up. My experience with this is you can take 14-16 oz water, start the mixer, then add your 1 or 2 scoops and it blends fine. Just as with anything else, adding something NOT LIQUID into the liquid will slow the blending down a bit, and I would think that the strength of your batteries plays a part in this as well. I am ordering a 2nd one from Amazon, as I am very happy with the one I purchased at another site.

Question: Who said they hate waiting?

I have just started to drink a bit more wine lately, and although I'm certainly no wine connoisseur, I do know enough to realize that your red wine needs to decant a bit for optimum taste. 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! Attach this aerator to your bottle, pour your glass, and enjoy right away. No waiting. That makes me happy!

Question: Blueberry lemonade tastes good sweetened with what flavor?

I love having one of these every evening, since I crave sweets and this is a good way to get my "fix' in a healthy, low-calorie way. I used to go through commercial fruit juice pops like gangbusters, but that can get expensive if you don't stock up during sales. Plus, they contain sugar. Now I can concoct new recipes to my heart's delight. Right now, I have blueberry lemonade sweetened a bit with organic maple syrup. To die for! Just set them in a glass of water for a few minutes and they slide right out. Yummy!

Question: What does the author use the smaller drain plug for from the endurance set?

I didn't notice when I signed the lease on my new apartment that there was no plug in the bathtub drain. Not a problem, I thought, I'll just buy something to keep the soap and hair from clogging the pipes. Well, after trying a flat disc (it just flipped sideways), the white rubber hat style (what a joke), the stick-on type drain cover (which stuck on so well I still can't get the residue off) and a "stainless" mesh strainer (which rusted and looked disgusting) --- this RSVP Endurance Set of 2 Strainers was worth the money spent! The larger one fits perfectly in the bathtub drain and actually works. It's easy to clean out too. 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. Should have bought this set the first time. Live and learn.

Question: What did owning a bar mean for my rest?

owning a bar means i have likely the worst schedule for sleeping possible. consequently i smoke before going to bed so i can sleep. my wife hates the smell of smoke almost as much as i do but as its a necessary "evil" such is life. it isn't an issue when its warm but during the winter months here in colorado we often get so cold that the windows freeze shut. no more going outside to smoke this really does what its advertized to do. no noticeable odor and it just keeps on working. noted the tip from another reviewer who made mention of placing a fabric softner sheet over the mouth end, actually a half sheet will do just fine. 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.

Question: What happened when the reviewer connected the mixer to electricity?

Purchased this mixer to replace a 10+ year old Kitchen Aid mixer. This mixer does a very nice job & overall I'm glad I purchased it. 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!). I'm thankful that there weren't any little grandchildren's fingers reaching in the bowel to steal a taste of the batter when the mixer automatically started up! It seems to me that it would be much safer if the mixer automatically reset itself to OFF when it's unplugged.

Question: What did I do before buying these glasses?

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. I have successfully dropped these glasses in the sink several times and not a single scratch has came about. I would buy these glasses again in a heartbeat. You do get a lot of glasses however. I live alone and don't need 16 glasses on even my most laziest week, but if you have company over a lot then obviously you would need more...Anyway, great set of glasses.

Question: Where is the napkin holder manufactured?

I was tired of the problems with vertical napkin holders. I looked at all the holders that were of this design and liked the looks AND size of this one the best.I will never worry about napkins blowing away again. Designed in the U.S. but manufactured in China.I recommend placing the napkins with the folded part toward the post as well as trying to grab the entire napkin and not just a layer when you pull it out.

Question: What is this coffeemaker described to be like?

I've been using this coffeemaker for some time now. I have to say that it produces a fine cup of coffee. However, it is a pain to use.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 stopped programming the coffeemaker because on rare occasions the grinding/brewer cycle would start and somehow blow open the maker. The result was a disaster. Grounds everywhere and crappy coffee.Another thing I don't like is that it's difficult to clean. In fact, it's a tedious process that takes too long.Again, I like the coffee. I just don't like a coffeemaker that's a diva.

Another thing I don't like is that it's difficult to clean. In fact, it's a tedious process that takes too long. Again, I like the coffee. <hl> I just don't like a coffeemaker that's a diva . <hl>

I've been using this coffeemaker for some time now. I have to say that it produces a fine cup of coffee. However, it is a pain to use.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 stopped programming the coffeemaker because on rare occasions the grinding/brewer cycle would start and somehow blow open the maker.
