Question: Do the two women like the house to be at the same temperature?

I am not sure what happened to those who had trouble with this little heater. 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 keep the house at a steamy 72 degrees and Mom likes it to be very much warmer.

Answer: Mom likes it to be very much warmer

Question: What do they wish?

I was worried when it arrived. I had to leave and couldn't inspect it immediately. There was a fairly large hole in the side of the thin cardboard box, but at first look it didn't seem to be an issue. Everything was okay, except for the heating/warming bulb which was broken off in the base. I haven't been able to find a replacement for it yet.The machine itself was simple to assemble, extra switches were included. It looks very nice, like some of the more expensive commercially available poppers.As far as operation, I wish the pot itself was deeper, as several un-popped kernels get knocked out as the popping starts. It's also a tight fit to load the pot, if you're not careful you'll dump everything. Besides that, it heats up and gets popping very fast, with a lot of steam and fresh popcorn-y goodness filling the area.I cannot wait until this winter to curl up on a cold night with hot popcorn and a good movie. This seems to be money well spent, if any issues arise, I'll "pop" back in later with an update.

Question: Whose bottle is the product for?

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 boil the water and fill it half way. Couple of hours later, I open the lid and it's still steaming hot and warms up his bottle way faster than the electric bottle warmer I have at home. It's slim and small enough to fit in the diaper bag. I was somehow thinking 16oz was bigger cause I wanted to use it for food after my boy grows out of bottles, but I am a big eater and this would only hold a snack portion for me. :) But it would be great for can of soup or chilli since it keeps things piping hot for hours. After about 5 hours though, water was only lukewarm.

Question: Where can you stash these

These bags are a decent price and very handy to have stashed in your purse, messenger bag, briefcase or glove compartment. I've recieved a number of compliments and questions about them, but I hesitate to recommend them for more than casual use.Size-wise, they are about the same size as your standard plastic grocery bag and about as useful. The handles are not long enough to go over your shoulder, so you will have to carry these bags by hand. While they do seem to hold a good amount of stuff, it seems unlikely you'll hit the 25-lb weight limit unless you're lugging home bags of canned goods--so you're probably safe there.While they are easy enough to stuff and unstuff, I haven't found that they are made very well. One of my bags already has stitching at the handle coming undone after only two uses! I think these are nice to have on hand for smaller shopping trips where the bags will come in handy but not see too much use, but I will be purchasing some larger (and hopefully more well-made) bags that can fit over the shoulder for daily use, including grocery shopping and larger trips.

Question: How many sizes did they order?

I am only writing one review on these pans. They are so much easier than the old spring for pans with the clamp on the side. I ordered all three sizes -- the eight, nine, and ten-inch pans. Have used only the ten inch- one and given the eight-inch one to a grand daughter. Still have the nine-inch new in the box. This is absolutely a great product. I bake the cheese cake in it without the foil wrap in the water bath. It does not leak and is SO easy to remove the ring when ready. I'm so glad I "sprung" for it.

Question: What kind of coffee were they trying to make?

I have tried everything to get this machine to make good espresso, to no avail. 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. Got a friend to make some different grinds of Intelligentsia Black Cat with his burr grinder, but some were too coarse and some too fine. For me, a machine at this price is intended to make coffee easily and reliably. 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. Looks like I'll be ordering another Hamilton Beach, even though the last one only lasted two years and the parts on this one are higher quality and a bit more user-serviceable.

Question: What broke on the blender?

Loved the blender but the motor died within 6 months. 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. About the time I had enough of the sound, the motor died completely and threw it away. I did use half frozen bananas in the shakes and thought that maybe that is why it didn't last as long but my mom, who bought this blender about a month after we bought ours just used fresh veggies and fruit and she was just complaining this morning that it was getting obnoxiously loud.... I just bought a 20 dollar unit from Faberware. It is not as good as the Nutri Bullet but a lot cheaper!

Question: What brand did they previously use?

I truly love this pan. It is worth every penny I paid for it. I usually cook with Calphalon (the original), but after researching grill pans, decided this would be the one and I have never regretted the purchase. I use this pan 3-4 times per week; it does well with fish, steak, hamburgers and the ubiquitous chicken breasts. I also grill peppers and onions on it for fajitas. Cleaning is really never a chore; don't ruin the pan by trying to put it in the dishwasher, though. Not a replacement for my BBQ, but much easier to fire up, especially during the cold 2009 winter in OR.

Question: Where do the sides pop out on the hamper?

It's a simple hamper so there's not much to comment on other than one thing that is slightly annoying and the reason for 4 stars - 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. It's not terrible, but I, personally, would rather have a hamper that doesn't bulge. Other than that, it's solid.

Question: What does the user make all of in this product?

I grew up with my mom making this for me as a snack after school. Not that I'm all "grown up" and moved out on my own, I still make all of my popcorn using this! 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! Makes the perfect popcorn in my opinion. 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 won't use anything else to make my popcorn snack, when friends come over they ask for me to make this because they love it so much! It makes a lot in one batch, so it's sure to be a crowd pleaser!

Question: What did reviews warn of?

So far no complaints! I've used it to cover a pan when frying to prevent splatters, and also as a flour sifter. Worked better for the first purpose, but just fine for the second as well. I read reviews complaining about rust forming, so I'm careful to wash it right after using and drying it well, and I haven't had that problem yet. 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. (This is probably quite obvious, but in a moment of distraction I forgot and burned myself. Still rating 5 stars since this is not a problem with the screen!)

Question: What did the reviewer use to grease the pan?

the seasonsed surface worked perfectly for me 1st time. Followed directions, greased the pan with a little butter applied wtih a silicone pastr brush. No problems. Got lazy & didn't worry too much about greasing & just added a spec of butter when they started to release not quite as cleanly. Worked very well. Perhaps the secre it getting the pan to the right temp? I used various fillings after testing wtih afew plain ones just in case - jam, apple pieces, apple sauce, choc chips - all worked well. Woudl recommend this pan to anyone.

Question: Where did the author hang the shoer caddy?

Plastic so not rust. Never owned a plastic shower caddy until this one and I prefer it over the others. Although it's narrow opening at the top is meant to hang on the shower head pipe I hang it over the shower handle so it is not visible outside of the shower when shower door is closed. The suctions cups are ineffective on my tile but I never have use for the suction cups anyway. I did not need to drill holes even though there is not existing drainage holes. The shelves on the caddy are have a very slight slant and dry out without any problems.

Question: How did they describe the product?

I just got this today (a day earlier than expected Thanks Amazon Prime). For $20 I am completely happy with the product. I wouldn't pay much more for it. Think of this as a dirt devil on a stick. It will not replace vacuuming but it is much quicker than sweeping hardwoods. Great for daily crumbs. I hate sweeping but enjoyed using this little vacuum. The cord is adequate length. It steers and rolls easily. It is definitely light weight. It picked up everything on the hardwoods, and most of the stuff on the rug. Happy with the purchase.

Question: How many temperature options?

I bought this to complement my Keurig and it is awesome! 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. I just pour milk in, turn it on, start the Keurig, and walk away for a couple of minutes and bam! It's so easy to use and easy to clean. 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. The steamer always got clogged or stopped working. Anyway, I absolutely love this frother!

Question: What was the author surprised by?

This popper does what its' meant to do. I have yet to experience zero un-popped kernels, but it comes close. The one thing that threw me off is how thin this thing is- extremely cheap materials. Any thinner and it would qualify as tinfoil. It's so thin the bottom dented 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!). The light build along with plastic gears lead me to believe me that the popper isn't going to last very long. Spend the extra $20-30 and get the Lindy's popper.

The light build along with plastic gears lead me to believe me that the popper isn't going to last very long. Spend the extra $20-30 and get the Lindy's popper.

Question: For how long did the old drying rack hold up?

Yes! This queen size wooden rack is just right! I was short on space before this purchase. It has sturdy construction like my old one. My old wooden drying rack gave up the ghost after 20 years of service. This Queen is an upgrade from the old eleven rung model:1. More dowels, 15 total!2. Thicker dowels, half inch diameter for heavy duty.3. All the wooden dowels have a smooth, painted white coating that is easy to wipe clean. No mildew buildup.Ah! This is great for hanging up delicate lingerie. The top shelf makes a good sweater dryer for those "Dry Flat" items. It folds flat for convenient storage beside the washer. The same day it arrived, I hung two bathing suits on it. Worked very well! It comes fully assembled with two blue rubber bands attached to make it a little more "tight" in the upright vertical position. I cut them off because I don't need the extra resistance training. The rack works fine without them. (See update)Product made in the U.S.A. by Madison Mill (Nashville, Tennessee). "We manufacture all products from poplar and oak grown in our southern forests."Update 6/27/14: The white paint coating on the top five dowels is beginning to flake off. I use wooden clothespins.

Question: Which irons has the poster tried?

I have purchased three different brands of steam iron over the last two years. Namely Black and Decker, Panasonic, and whatever brand makes the Shark. 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. This is the first unit that I have had that does not do that. So I give it accolades for that. I will now give away my other irons to my daughters. The only weakness in this iron is the temperature setting control, which has no indicators on it as to heat level so you kind of have to experiment with it and not turn it too hot. Other irons indicate silk, polyester, cotton etc. But this one does not. But I will still take it over other major brands. So if you want a steam iron that does not drip or leak through the holes when you are ironing this is the one to have.

Question: How do the handles of knives feel?

I bought three Victorinox knives based on a recommendation from "Cooks Illustrated" magazine. I am so pleased! I got the 3" and 4" utility knives plus the chefs knife. All three are the best of their kind I have ever used, and I have always considered myself a bit of a knife snob. The polypropylene handles are very comfortable and non-slip, and the blades are just right. They are really sharp and they stay sharp. The chefs knife is perfectly balanced and such a pleasure to use. And the best part of all, they are so affordable. You deserve these knives!

Question: What problem have they had with cheaper door racks?

Over the years one thing is sure about closet hardware. There are a few good solutions and a whole lot of bad ones out there. Fortunately this Oxo door rack is one of the good ones. This stainless steel bodied rack measures in at 3.6" x 19.2" x 10.6" and features five padded hooks. Scuffing is zilch because this flex fit rack is outfitted with silicone contact points. Unlike other over the door racks that I've purchased, this product does not slide and bang against the door. Thanks to the padded hooks, I've had absolutely no problems with garments or hats slipping off and falling to the floor. Unlike the cheapies out there, I've had no issues with opening or closing the closet door. This Oxo product is a welcome closet tool that I use and can easily recommend.

Question: Where were the summer clothes stored?

My fiancee' and I decided to move into together and although I have a huge walk in closet, I also have a lot of clothes and shoes. So the logical step was to get space bags to make space for his clothing. 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 SO much more space now and everything is neat and sealed. These bags are study, very easy to use and I loved the assorted sizes which really helped for those items I didn't need a big bag for -- so I definitely recommend. As always thanks to all those who left the reviews that helped me make my decision in purchasing these!

Question: On which holiday was this product received?

I honestly don't know what all the fuss is about with this product. I'm a total kitchen gadget junkie and so I was delighted when I received this for Christmas. Yes, it's more ergonomic to hold and it's a little easier for me to slice up small bits of pizza for my toddler, but it's not *all that*. The problem is the thing is so irritating to wash that I find myself just reaching for my regular pizza cutter instead of this one. Basically you have to take it out of its plastic case to wash it which can be rather tricky. I keep worrying I'm going to slice myself with the blade. Even putting it back together after it's clean is a bit nerve racking. Frankly all this business of taking it apart and putting it together sort of nullifies the ergonomic aspect of it for me.I'd say if you already have a pizza cutter that you're happy with you don't need to bother with this thing.

Question: What feature is great for keeping all your detergents at hand?

When I went off on a college internship, I knew space was going to be tight. This hamper is very durable and great for taking your items to the laundry and then toting them back to your apartment. The Pocket on the side is great for keeping all your detergents at hand especially if there are doors you have to open or even 3 flights of stairs in my case; great to have at least one hand free when walking. The best part of this hamper is the flexibility of it. If you don't need it you can fold it flat, and even twist and fold it up to just about the size of your hand. Even now back at home, I still love using this hamper for toting my cloths to the washer and dryer. This hamper beats a traditional cloths basket any day, hands down.

Question: What does the author hate to do?

I hate to clean and am a procrastinator so it took several months after receiving this steamer to finally use it. Now I wonder why the hell I took so long to use it. It is incredibly easy to use. Just fill the container with water, turn it on and glide it across the floor. It is very light weight and easy to maneuver. 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. :(After cleaning, I rubbed a paper towel on the floor to see if it would come away clean... sadly, it was still slightly brown but the floors felt a lot cleaner. I tried it again after the second use and the floors seem cleaner than the 1st time.This is my first steamer so I can't compare it to others but I would definitely recommend it.

Question: What did they make?

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. I have to say I LOVE this pan. The eggs cooked completely even, the cleanup was so easy, there was no sticking, and everything came out just perfect! I can't wait to experiment with cooking other foods in this pan, like my Cheeseburger Casserole Muffins or the Mini Corn-dog Muffins...yum! Some tips in using the OvenArt Silicone Muffin pan is to place the bakeware on a cookie sheet before filling the cups, for an easier transfer to the oven. You may lightly grease the muffin pan using oil, butter, or baking spray for the best nonstick experience. Once the pan is cool, you can pop up your baked goods with your fingers, just by pushing up from the bottom of the cups, for easy release. It's so much easier then a metal pan! I think the OvenArt Silicone Muffin Pan is a great product to invest in, because you deserve a stress free baking experience, so you can fully enjoy the glory in baking!I received a complimentary OvenArt Silicone Muffin Pan in exchange for an honest review. All opinions my own.

Question: What makes it easy to clean?

So I've got a cupboard full of travel mugs, but this is hands down my favorite. I use it every day to take my coffee with me on the way to work in the morning. It holds more than a lot of travel mugs (which was important to me...I NEED my coffee in the morning) and it keeps it nice and hot. But the biggest selling point for me is that I can put it in the dishwasher. I should clarify, because the packaging did not say that it was dishwasher safe. 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. The top comes apart easily for easy cleaning. The color is nice too (I ordered purple so my husband wouldn't take it...but I did get him a nice, black one and he's just as happy with it). I highly recommend this travel mug.

Question: Is it easy or difficult to turn the handle?

This is by far the best and easiest can opener I've ever used. 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.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. Not having to 'squeeze' any handles is great and I personally find it very easy to turn. It also looks great and has good feel to it...a feeling that it will be durable and last.I personally say pay a little more for something that is quality and will last. As far as can openers go, this fits that bill perfectly.

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!

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 do you have to do to the head of the crevice tool?

Just got this item (3/28/2014)--it replaces 2 Hoover Flairs that I've had since 2007 and 2008. So far I mostly like it. It has 2 cons that I can determine right off the bat.[1] The crevice tool is useless. You need to dismantle the head and replace it with the tool and then carry around the whole vacuum. I am disabled, so this doesn't work for me.[2] The head is not a "swiwel" head--it is stationery, and therefore harder to use.Pros:[1] Adjustable handle height (for us shorties)[2] Great suction[3] Long cord

Question: What was the condition of the other two towels?

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. Won't be of any use in the kitchen for wiping up spills and such.

Question: What mug is it?

This travel mug is great. We've gone through a lot of travel mugs in this house and my husband and I have never found one that we really liked until this one. We have one of the older versions without the easy clean lid and this version is much improved. Basically the inner part of the cup opens for easier cleaning. I still find it easiest to put some really hot water in it and leave it up side down for a while before washing it to make sure it's clean. Coffee stays really hot in this for a very long time. This fits well in standard cup holders and doesn't spill or leak.

Question: What type of pan was the buyer comparing this new purchase to?

This is my first Tamago Pan so I can't really be fair when I say it's awesome. I'm comparing it to my round omelette pan I was using prior which wasn't hard but this makes the tamago rectangles perfect. It's smaller than eggspected but I still love it. The strips I cut don't reach the end of a seaweed sheet for sushi rolls so I have to use two.It's not completely non stick like a TFal or other brand names of teflon, but with a brush or some oil and it's just the same.If you haven't already looked I have posted pictures to show size and my first tamagos made.

Question: Which aspect of the product has the user not tried, yet?

Bought this one after our 15bar died (see a previous review on how long that friend lasted...9 years). My husband decided on this one and it works great. LOTS of creama from each espresso shot. Not sure why another reviewer is having problems, but we aren't at all(maybe they should use good quality espresso). We use Lavazza espresso and warm the unit up for about 10 minutes before doing the shots. We did buy a few 4oz shot glasses to do double shots, that way you can get all the creama in one cup. Some people complain that the "ready" light doesn't stay on long, that's true but I just keep it going for the rest of the double shot and it's still hot and produces excellent espresso.Haven't used the steamer. But we didn't use it on the other one. I prefer to just heat my milk up and use it that way.Pros: Great espresso, nice looking, economicalCons: Does make a little rattling noise (water tank) but that's easily quieted. (push it up against the wall and the noise is considerably less).

Question: Where is the beer going to be poured out?

OK, who really needs a $12 bottle opener? Well, no one. But, if you are like me and enjoy a great craft beer almost every day, this opener makes your evening ritual just a little nicer. The opener itself is as close to perfect as any opener can be, and for that it deserves a look. It will last forever and when you die, your kids may fight over it. 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!

Question: what piece in the set ended up damaged after washing it?

We purchased two of these sets to replace some outdated dinner pieces that we had in our cabinetry. My wife was most impressed by the beauty of the pattern. The set is surprisingly lightweight yet durable. We have enjoyed using these pieces daily.Our only concern is that one of the pieces (a dinner plate) ended up with a burn mark/stain after being run through the dishwasher. Only one did this, and none of the others have since then. It's a cosmetic distraction, but is still disappointing considering how short of a time we have had the items. We are now watching the rest of the pieces carefully.That's the only reason I don't award 5 stars. Other than that, you won't regret purchasing this set!

Question: What went everywhere when the maker blew open?

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.

Question: What do you need to do slowly?

I use this in a basement closet that is isolated from the rest of the basement (which is treated by a larger dehumidifier.I hooked this up with a timer so it comes on every few hours. Also, even though it is not made this way, I was able to drill a hole in the lower front of the reservoir and plumb a drain tube into the unit (much like you see on larger/more expensive units). 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!

Question: What kind of metal does this user favor?

If you've invested in copper cookware, it's well worth the added investment to purchase Copperbrill. I cherish each of my copper pieces and wanted to use the best, safest polish I could. This non-abrasive, smooth paste instantly shines up copper and removes even tough stains almost effortlessly.I recently bought a few copper pots and pans that were marked down dramatically because they had been store display pieces. They were quite dulled, with sticker residue and many dark fingerprints and water stains. Most people would have overlooked them, but I knew that Copperbrill would restore them to perfect condition-and it did!

Question: Where is this person's table situated?

I read other reviews before I chose this table. For the record I had no trouble removing the blue protective film from the table top in one piece. While the shipping carton was a bit superficially dented, the contents were undamaged and the unit was easy to assemble. Note that the blue film may not look like it is removable; it might look to some as the surface color of the top and use by heated or cold items might work to 'glue' the film in place. This is only a possibility. The manufacturer might print 'REMOVE THIS FILM' on the film. My table is on a carpet and is stable. Finger prints and future dust can be removed with a soft cloth. This replaces a larger square table that was taking up too much space and of course is adjustable.

Question: The device needs ventilation so it can dispose of what?

I choose this fryer due to it's ease-of-cleaning and it certainly was easy as parts are easily disassembled and re-assembled.The heating for me took approximately 15 minutes as advertised - sometimes quicker and sometimes a bit longer. The temps options are selectable between 300, 325, 350, to 375 max. The basket is easy to handle and clean. The timer was easy to set and very helpful when kitchen gets busy.My only complaint is the cap doesn't have an option to fully cover the oil. 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. The oder from used oil does get around the kitchen and may annoy family members sensitive to it.

Question: What is this product?

I attempted to screw this into a glass base and it wouldn't screw all the way down tight. Instead there was a gap where if you shook the glass with base, the metal blades would clang around. It has to be tight in order for the gasket to seal the liquids in the glass container. My first (and last) attempt in blenderizing with this product resulted in liquid squirting from the base all over the blender and counter top.This is a knock-off of the original Osterizer part. I thought it was an authentic Oster part when I placed my purchase. I should become policy of Amazon to demand knock-off information on the product page as a warning.I am learning that you must be very careful when you purchase anything on Amazon. It has cost me a lot to have my head in the sand about these things.

Question: What kind of finish did the reviewer buy?

So far so good. The Lift and Lock Pole Caddy took less than 2 minutes to be installed in our shower. 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). When it is firm against the ceiling and shower pan, then you press the locking mechanism down and you're done. Adding the trays is a snap. Just place them where you want and press down till you hear a click.So far we have some heavy shampoo and conditioner bottles on their own trays, razors, body wash, loofahs, etc on the trays and everything is just fine. Of course I wouldn't put overly heavy items on the trays, but they are sturdy. 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.Overall, it is a nice looking, solid unit that does exactly what it says and takes just a couple of minutes to set up. Ours is brushed nickel and it matches perfectly with the other brushed nickel pieces in the bathroom.I will update the review if the unit rusts, doesn't hold up, or has any other issues, but for now it is a very nice solution that takes up little space in the shower and I don't have to live with the rack that hangs from the shower head pipe that I don't care for.
