Question: How long have I watched the pan on Amazon?

I used this pan for the first time yesterday after watching it for months on Amazon. I made an orange chiffon cake and it released beautifully (I did use some cooking spray) and looked very professional. Makes a great presentation with very little extra effort. I did wash by hand as I would like to preserve the finish on this pan for as long as possible; the crevices didn't pose too big of a problem (not like, say, washing the Nordic Ware garland mini bundt pan by hand). It has a nice heavy feel to it (as their Platinum Collection products tend to)and I would say I'm very satisfied. I ended up getting it when the price dropped to twenty-five dollars, but the day after I had ordered it the price went down to twenty-three dollars. Amazon apparently does not do price adjustments anymore, so I couldn't get that difference in price back, but just be aware that it has gone that low in price and if you are patient and don't need the pan in a hurry it will likely go down in price again. Free shipping was great.

Question: How are the handles described?

It's been a long time since I had a good pair of Kitchen shears and when these were offered, I jumped on them. They do everything from clipping chives to cutting out a chicken back. The handles are generous (even my husband can easily fit his fingers into them) and can be used by both righties and lefties with comfort.The other cool thing about these snips is they come apart for super easy cleaning. A simple twist and you can get to the dust, dirt and other grime that tends to hide between the blades. This feature alone give these scissors a huge boom compared to other brands.Would I recommend this snips to my friends and family. You bet I would (may even buy a pair for my daughters kitchen). Now that I have them, have no idea how I managed in the kitchen so long without them.

Question: How many times has the reviewer had to change the bag?

I purchased this vacuum as we had moved house and our old vacuum had breathed it last the day we moved out. However being slightly short on cash I couldn't get the one I wanted and decided that this looked like the best option for the price. I have in the past had bag-less vacuums and wasn't looking forward to having a bag again. However after a month of owning this vacuum I cannot believe I even thought about spending more money. I have found it very powerful and having new carpet we have had huge amounts of fluff floating around as well as the fact we have a long haired cat. I have had to change the bag once and have found it very easy to do. I cannot recommend this vacuum enough, for the price it is a complete steal in my eyes. It is quick and easy to handle and although it is not the lightest vacuum on the market I haven't found it too hard to carry up my stairs. I has performed great on my bare floors and my carpets. For the price I find no draw backs. Lighter would be great but under $100 what do you expect.

Question: What kind of bowls are these (what is their function)?

These bowls have a small enough diameter to not take up too much counter space, yet they hane good capacity. They're your typical glass prep bowls; you can get plastic ones, these will break if mishandled of course. I prefer glass.The glass looks very nice, very well shaped and polished, very clear. It's high quality glass, not high-lime glass (green tint), which makes these bowls fairly durable. They are glass and will break easily; but a tap won't necessarily crack them in half.The 5.5 and 8 ounce sizes give you options for preparing dry and fresh spices; liquids; and eggs. Obviously the 5.5 ounce size dwarfs the 1/4 teaspoon of salt that you need to add at one point; but often the recipe calls for an addition of, say, 1/4tsp salt, 1/2tsp pepper, 1tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp cayenne powder. In such cases, just pile all those spices in one small dish, since they're all dry and all get added in one shot.I like these, they look nice and do the job just fine.

Question: What keeps the glass above surfaces?

This French press pot works well, and is more attractive than many. The feet keeps the hot glass above the surface of the table or counter. The pot is also very sturdy and well-balanced, and does not feel unstable when the plunger is pressed. 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 like this pot very much. Getting a great cup of coffee with a French press is a matter of getting the amount of coffee correct, and making sure that you allow ample time for the coffee to steep.Definitely recommended.

Question: What is awesome to the poster?

This little cooker is awesome. Although it's not real big, it works great! I hand wash it due to the aluminum bottom so it doesn't discolor. It says you can put the base, lid, etc. in the dishwasher, but I want the handles, etc. to stay nice. Lentils came out great--much better than on the stove--and to do the veggies for a marinara sauce, was so easy. As for cleaning the inside, Bar Keepers Friend is the best, I think, as it doesn't scratch the SS, but gets it super clean and shiny. Oh, forgot to mention how great a whole chicken came out! I mixed some seasonings and then coated it inside & out, & cooked the 5 lb. bird for 30 min. or so! Yummy!! Next is corned beef & veggies...Wish I'd gotten this unit a long time ago. One last note: of the things I've made, it usually takes 10-15 mins. to reach pressure, then the cooking time, and then 10- 20 mins. to cool down on its own. Obviously, if you put it under cold water, it's faster, but most recipes say to let it cool down on its own.

Question: Does it fit larger or smaller than the regular matress

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. The pad gives her just enough softness. The cover comes in handy and fit just fine. It fits slightly smaller than the bed mattress but, as the instructions that came with the pad say, that allows for a better fit under mattress pads and sheets. Very happy with this product.

Question: What makes a mess of the popper?

I haven't used an air popper in decades, and always liked the fact that they popped corn really well. I decided to try this and see if they were still as good.This works well. It popped great corn (organic, in my case) right out of the box (well, after cleaning, of course). It is a little tricky catching all the corn, and it takes some time to get used to how it pops and how long it takes.I have not used the built-in butter melter thingie, as I learned a long time ago that doing that makes a mess of the popper and requires a lot more clean up. I am still searching for the best way to apply melted butter (organic, again), and will be trying some grass-fed butter oil or ghee.I like it.

Question: What does the poster say about not knowing if the product works as promised?

This tortilla warmer really works. I find that it keeps the tortillas warm through our dinner. There are never any left to see if this will work an hour! It is perfect for warming them in the microwave and keeping them warm through the meal. I don't have a clue if it works for an hour, like the package stated. I'll never know because it does not take us that long to eat. Great Item!

Question: What did the electric company provide for buying an Energy Star product?

Installing this air conditioner is a big project. You will need a couple of strong guys with tools who have several hours to spare and skills in building and installation. Also, since this will take several hours, you will need to provide refreshments.Once the unit was installed, tested and found to be working, we turned it off and are now waiting for hot weather. The guys are looking forward to having the man cave cool this summer.I love that this unit is an Energy Star product , which conserves energy. Our electric company offers a rebate on Energy Star products, be sure and check with yours. In past years we have received tax credits for buying Energy Star items, we will have to wait and see if they offer anything this year.

Question: What was placed in front of the stand?

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: What did they like about the high fluff pillow?

I really like a latex pillow. It gives you fluff and won't quit on you. Only thing is my ear feels squeezed and irritated. BUT, I found a way around that. I cut a 7" round cup in thecenter of the pillow, about an 1-1 1/2 deep ( easy to do ) and put it back together.This gives my ear a little place to rest; without feeling squeezed and it supports, my head. Good night sleep. This will only work on memory foam or latex pillows. And you can always turn it over, to avoid the hole.I also ordered the 'high fluff' one, to try it out. But, I likethe high fluff one. More head support and it stays fluffed up.The other one is for people who like to lie their head flat, witha little fluff.

I am delighted with this steam mop-It does a great job of swabbing my tile bathroom and linoleum kitchen floors-It makes copious amounts of steam...fast-It is easy to maneuver-It is easy to use-The pads are easy to take on and off-The built in, convertible hand steamer is an added plus.And, unlike my oldBISSELL Steam Mop Deluxe Hard Floor Cleaner, 31N1, this Steamfast model doesn't require a water filter in order to work!

Question: what happens when the gears strip out?

My wife and I have had this Peppermill for about ten years. Well, not exactly this ONE. We have gone through four of them in the ten years. Sometimes it sat in the cabinet for a few months before we sent it back. The peppermill does come with a lifetime warranty and Olde Thompson has replaced it, without question, every time the gears have stripped out. We ship it back and receive a new on in a couple of weeks. The cover has been changed since we first purchased it. Perhaps it was part of an upgrade. We have had our current one for a couple of years now.Other than the gears stripping out every couple of years, the mill works great. I particularly like it that the pepper comes out the top rather than the bottom. It doesn't leave pepper on the table whenever we set it down, like many of the bottom gear mills. The adjustable gears work fine. We have found that it seems to last longer if we don't grind the peppercorns as fine. We usually prefer the coarse grind anyway.

Sometimes it sat in the cabinet for a few months before we sent it back. The peppermill does come with a lifetime warranty and <hl> Olde Thompson has replaced it <hl>, without question, every time the gears have stripped out. We ship it back and receive a new on in a couple of weeks. The cover has been changed since we first purchased it. Perhaps it was part of an upgrade. We have had our current one for a couple of years now.Other than the gears stripping out every couple of years, the mill works great. I particularly like it that the pepper comes out the top rather than the bottom. It doesn't leave pepper on the table whenever we set it down, like many of the bottom gear mills. The adjustable gears work fine. We have found that it seems to last longer if we don't grind the peppercorns as fine. We usually prefer the coarse grind anyway.

Question: What kind of tiny jobs do they need the vacuum for?

It does technically fit my Eureka Air Speed bagless vacuum, but that's not to say it actually attaches or fits by itself. I place the attachment part into the hose of my vacuum, and as long as I hold it, it fits. This isn't such a problem for me, since I don't need to move the vacuum cleaner while I'm using this kit. I have to hold the hose, anyway, so I just hold it where it attaches. I need something for tiny jobs like my keyboards and other accessories, and it does do the trick. So I am keeping it. But I can see where it would be annoying for other users, and it would be great if the product came with a list of vacuums it is compatible with. Since you can't really hold it up to your own to judge the size, the buyer should be aware that it may not fit. It still works better for me than canned air.

Question: What kind of foods are put in with this scraper into what you are cooking?

This scraper comes in handy for so many things. I mostly use it for putting chopped foods into whatever I am cooking, but I do use it for baking and sometimes measuring. I tend to get this out when I start cooking without even thinking about it.I have started rolling out biscuit dough into a square and using this scraper to cut it into square biscuits. Not that it takes much time with a biscuit cutter, but it goes faster and I only roll out the dough once (better biscuits). This also makes handling doughs easier than trying to use both hands. I've also used it to slice cookie dough and it works great.I like the handle a lot. It's easy to hold and use.This is not the most innovative item for the kitchen, but it is well worth having. I'd bet anyone would be happy having this scraper in their kitchen!

Question: How would the user describe the relative weight of the product?

I chose a great rating for this product because they're inexpensive, lightweight and work just great with cotton candy. We use them in our commercial concessions and bounce house company and they are a huge hit. They hold a lot of cotton candy and don't fall apart easy. I'd recommend.

Question: what type of timer does it have?

This thing does it all, ice crusher, smoothies, mixed drinks, pesto etc. Yeah it makes noise, it's a blender, the tech built into this works, the blades, the ribs in the vessel, the countdown timer. 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. 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?"...

Question: Can the humidifier easily catch fire?

I read tons of the reviews on here before purchasing this product. I ended up buying the Owl, and I am in love. I have been using it for 4 days so far and I have had no problems with burning electronics, noise level, it using too much water, etc.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. It produces a nice little stream of cool mist and after the first night of use I woke up without a dry, sore throat and nose. My apartment is so dry I have been getting nose bleeds in the morning from my nose cracking. It has been WONDERFUL! I feel so much better.I was hesitant about buying a $40 humidifier when I could get a Vick's hot steam from Walgreens for $12. I am glad I bought this instead. With the cool steam, I am not worried about my place catching fire from a faulty heating element.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.

Question: What did the reviewer hate?

Why did I wait so long to get this ????? I hated dragging the cutting board over to the pan to scrape off diced veggies. Sometimes I would use my hands and have to pick, pick at all the stragglers. This is the handiest tool ever ! Scoops up my diced onions and gets them all. I don't have to use my hands to pick them up anymore or drag over the cutting board to the stove. Great for anything you are chopping up. I bought two more for my daughters.

Question: What color does the light have to be before the sandwich maker is ready to cook?

No more messy frying pans to make my ham and cheese grilled sandwiches. It is first and a excellent sandwich maker, but it can be used for other things, like frying bacon, warming sausage paddies, grilling hot dogs and making toast. 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. Not only is it fast, hot and small, the best thing is clean up. Wipe it down with a paper towel and let it cool and put it away. I have been using it almost daily, fix my English muffin in the morning and make sandwiches for lunch, and sometimes I use it for fixing a evening meal. For the price, it just can't be beat, I compare it to my microwave as the two items all kitchens need. On a scale of one to ten, it is a 20.

Question: What is the color of the shower curtain that they ordered?

This is a nice, heavy (yet pliant) vinyl shower curtain that should last a few years with a little care. We live in a double-wide mobile home, so we have a small tub enclosure, and the 72" length fits perfectly. I'm glad I ordered the frosty clear color, as it lets the light shine through without being transparent. It is heavy enough that it hangs well and doesn't fly into the tub while you're showering. 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. I like this shower curtain and will buy another when it's time to replace this one.

Question: How many stars did they leave after editing their review?

EDIT: I will leave my original review below for historical purposes, but I should amend it to more accurately reflect the product. I've upped my rating from 1 to 3 stars.Make sure you read the instructions carefully. You have to press firmly on the center to push out all the air and then they do stick a lot better. They have an extra sticky bit around the rim of each cup which also helps them stick, but it can make it a real pain to pull them off the window and it tends to leave behind a sticky residue. The instructions list some recommendations about cleaning this residue off.=====Original review below=====I purchased these to hang some Christmas lights from the insides of my windows. The lights weigh about 15 to 16 ounces and I used them in 2 windows from 4 to 5 feet in length. I was using 3 suction cups.In short, they lasted less than 5 minutes before they fell down. I tried multiple times to get them to stay up with no success.

Question: How many children does the author have?

I love this item. It is perfect and beautiful. The best part is, its plastic. First let me quantify my delight, I am a mom of 3 boys under 5 years old who love to help themselves. With this cake plate I don't have to worry about it being too heavy or shattering under little hands.Its perfect for displaying your baked creations on the dining room table or you want to take your treats pool side. This is ideal for parties - desserts, crudites, cheese platters, trifle and so much more. I must admit though I don't think I would use it for punch. I tested it with water and it seems fine but with my rambunctious crew its not the smartest move.Perfect for mom with little ones who love to bake.

Question: What is the purpose of these bags?

I bought these when I had a party at my house. These big green bags made it clear to everyone that this is where you put bottles and cans. After the party I've used these as my recycling bags that I keep in my pantry and garage. I used to use paper grocery bags, but they'd leak and the handles would often break. These sturdy bags are a nice alternative to my old bags and they hold a lot more so there are less trips to my outside roller cart. Overall a great buy.

Question: which state is the reviewer located?

Not only does this blend in with my garden so you hardly know it is there, it keeps your outlets off the ground and protected with the cover. I have used outdoors in California year round, only moving it during the Christmas season when I change my lighting. I use it year-round for a fountain and for lights.

Question: What is the name of the product?

Almost every cook of any experience has need from time to time for a colander or some way to drain liquid off a dish. The ExcelSteel is no exception. The difference is that it is a heavy gauge mesh and works perfectly for my uses. Moreover, it is large enough to hold more than a few items. The feet keep it elevated so that air can circulate around it. It has those fantastic handles which reduce or even eliminate heat coming off the steel and thusly making it an easy lift. The only downside I have with this marvelous device is it is too handy for my spouse to get a hold of for one of his 'special projects' in the garage. Luckily for me and him, it is not used to strain old oil or other toxic materials. I really enjoy this one and the other two that make a complete set.

Question: What feature does the poster like?

The Rowenta DW4060 Auto Steam Iron is an attractive and nicely weighted/balanced iron. With a shiny stainless steel soleplate, ironing is smooth and quick with no drag like I've had with some of the non-stick soleplates I've used in the past. 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.I was impressed with how quickly the iron heated up and it steams garments vertically nicely. This eliminates the need for a separate steamer and in fact, does a nicer job than my old steamer! The iron has a 30 second turn-off safety feature that activates when the iron is left on horizontally, and an 8 minute turn-off when the iron is left on vertically. This is a great feature for college students, but when sewing and pressing as one goes, this can be a bit of a pain.I do like the steam features, especially the extra holes in the tip of the iron. I can really get some nice presses on the cuffs of hubby's dress shirts. I am having some issues with sputtering and the iron leaves wet spots on my clothes while using the steam. I've been over the booklet and haven't found a solution to that problem yet. There isn't any type of steam adjustment - just a heavy full steam and this sucks up the water quickly. I found I had to keep refilling while ironing hubby's shirts. That was a pain. The fill hole is not the easiest to access and the iron has to be held at an awkward angle. Surprisingly, a fill cup was not included.I really don't care for the dial temperature setting. It's located under the handle and is not easy to see the markings. I'm also not impressed with the picture directions that came with the iron. There are a few written instructions, but I'd prefer them written out with a few illustrations.Overall, my rating for the Rowenta DW4060 Auto Steam Iron is 3.5 stars.

The iron has a 30 second turn-off safety feature that activates when the iron is left on horizontally, and an 8 minute turn-off when the iron is left on vertically. This is a great feature for college students, but when sewing and pressing as one goes, this can be a bit of a pain.I do like the steam features, especially the extra holes in the tip of the iron. I can really get some nice presses on the cuffs of hubby's dress shirts. I am having some issues with sputtering and the iron leaves wet spots on my clothes while using the steam. I've been over the booklet and haven't found a solution to that problem yet. There isn't any type of steam adjustment - just a heavy full steam and this sucks up the water quickly. I found I had to keep refilling while ironing hubby's shirts. That was a pain. The fill hole is not the easiest to access and the iron has to be held at an awkward angle. Surprisingly, a fill cup was not included.I really don't care for the dial temperature setting. It's located under the handle and is not easy to see the markings. I'm also not impressed with the picture directions that came with the iron. There are a few written instructions, but I'd prefer them written out with a few illustrations.Overall, my rating for the Rowenta DW4060 Auto Steam Iron is 3.5 stars.


Question: How many bags does the Panasonic vacuum come with?

Owning a vacuum is like owning a printer -- it's not just the initial cost, it's also the ongoing "surcharge" for use. 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. I was pleasantly surprised at how long the bags lasted. Even though they aren't terribly big, they are very sturdy and expand to hold a great deal more dust and dirt that expected. Unlike most canister bags, they aren't made of paper, it is sort of a thick stretchy material. They are very easy to change and don't "leak" dirt and dust all over when you take them out of the canister. At $9.99 a four pack here at Amazon, they are a bargain and should last several months, at least, in the average house.

Answer: two

Question: What have they kept well?

These have been durable and have kept their non stick well. I am careful when I cook or clean them not to scratch them (out of habit), but overall I am quite pleased.

Question: What country is the knife from?

Was looking for an low cost Chinese Chef's knife that performs well at an affordable price. Decided to try this one out after reading the positive reviews. I was not expecting much for the price, but thought that it would be a good start without spending lots of money. To my surprise, this knife turns out to be one of my favorites given that it can handle most of your slicing, chopping, scooping and dicing all with one tool!The weight is perfect since its not a meat cleaver, and it handles fine dicing to rough chopping amazingly well! You really cant beat it for the price, and even with cost aside, it is a great knife to have in your arsenal. It is my general go to knife now, and works amazingly well especially with my new found love of wok cooking (mostly thai food)

Question: What is one complaint about the peeler?

My wife and I pick our own honey crisp apples in the fall and we usually end up with quite a large "reserve", so she'll make pies and apple crisps and other deserts. Rather than try to peel apples by hand like we did in the past, we wanted something to speed up the process. Apple peeling (even with two people) can get pretty tedious if you're not really good at it.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. My wife and I ended up eating a bunch of the ends as we went along because it would shave thick chunks off either end. Not a big deal if you're at home but if you want to use this for a bakery or something it might lead to a fair amount of apple waste if you have a lot of apples that are not "symmetrical" or mostly round.That said it's sturdily built, looks pretty cool (like it belongs in an old-fashioned kitchen), and got through the first 4 dozen or so apples we tested on it without any mechanical problems. We'll see how it stands up to next fall's test / if any of the thiner parts break, etc. Will update if it does. If no update you can assume it's working great a year later.(Note: we have not tried it on potatoes.)

Question: What product is being reviewed?

In the two smallest sizes, this high-quality stainless steel strainer has a very fine mesh that will strain out seeds, lumps, and just about everything else from a thin cooking liquid. To strain a cooking liquid that is even slightly thickened, you will probably need a strainer with a coarser mesh. The strainer is dishwasher safe.The strainer size (2-1/2", etc.) is measured straight across the "bowl" of the strainer, and includes some of the metal frame. The total length of the 2-1/2" strainer is 7-1/4"; the wire handle alone is 4". The total length of the 3-3/4" strainer is 8-3/4"; the wire handle alone is 4-1/4".

Question: What did they buy to keep tabs on the temperature?

A fridge in the garage in a cold climate is problematic. I needed to monitor the temperature in winter to make sure the unit is functioning properly (it wasn't - garage just gets too cold). So I bought this thermometer to keep tabs on the fluctuations in temperature. 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.One caveat, the interior walls of the new fridge are a pebbled finish and the suction cut won't hold. I mounted a piece of tape to the wall in the location I wanted the thermometer and attached the suction cup to the smooth surface of the tape.

Question: What does the reviewer say that is still rock solid well after a year of use?

I bought this basket a few months ago, and it's great! 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. Have had no problems with the suction cups slipping at all. Great product.Update: I've had this product on the wall in my bathtub area for well over a year now and the suction cups are still rock solid. Best I've ever seen; highly recommend.

Question: What kind of test does the Henckles pass?

Once again I have to edit a review with new information. I just received a new henckles professional four star wide cook's knife. In my review I make a lot of comments abut the 15 degree angle of sharpness vs. the 20 degree. Now I am forced to reveal that I can't tell the difference. The Henckle's feels just as sharp and easily passes the paper test. I guess I was comparing my new Wusthof to used 20 degree class knives, although they had been sharpened. I still like the Wusthof but the new Hencjke's is just as good and the handle is excellent. Froom the picture I assumed the handle was the old style flat handle but this one is much bigger, fatter, and fits my hand just as well. Like I concluded, the best way to buy a knife is to go somewhere like ----- where you can feel what;s best for you and then buy it on amazon.When the Asian knives came out with their 15 degrees of sharpness, I bought at least a dozen, mostly Shun and some Myobi. 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). The result is a more comfortable heavier knife like I am use to using. I still love my shun knives but not quite as much as this. My all time favorite is the Shun Ken Onion chefs knives but shun and ken onion have apparently parted company. The ken onion knives are just called ken onion and are made by a different company. The handles are shorter, too short for me with my XL hands. They are just not as comfortable and not as heavy as the shun ken onion. You can still get them but I don't know for how long. For me these new Wusthof Ikon classic knives will do just fine. I don't understand the 2 star comment. The handle is solid and comfortable. Put next to a Shun they are just as sharp, heavier and feel more solid. I wish I had not spent so much on the Asian knives so I could afford a few more of these. I probably will buy a few anyway and I do like m shun knives, just not as much as these. Both are 5 star knives. You should probably check them out at a store before ordering online to see which you prefer. Of course there are manyother knives but for me the Shun is the best Asian knife and these are the best Euro/American style.

Question: What size trash bags does the trash can use?

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. But for my mother, it is perfect and a white kitchen size trash bag fits perfectly. We installed the D batteries since there was no outlet where she has her trashcan located. It worked like a charm but then again it was brand new. The only drawback that I experienced was that the opening is not as wide/large as the top and is what I consider rather small. This translates into problems when throwing away raw meat packages or leftovers since one will have to be careful not to allow the refuse to come in contact with the sides of the opening. Then again, one could wash/disinfect the top if desired, but who wants to bother with that everyday? Also, for a stainless steel product, it is made with really flimsy and thin metal, not what I would even call stainless steel - it was more like plastic with a stainless steel coating.

Question: How does the product's color compare to what the person expected?

The color is a little darker than I was looking for and it's thinner than I thought it would be. My kitties have clawed it a few times and it looks a little worn. 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.

Question: What do they use their Salad Shooter for?

My Salad Shooter (I cheated) is from a yard sale, so it only cost a couple of dollars. But that's because I didn't know that Amazon has them for sale. It is a marvel to use, especially for carrots, hard(er) cheeses, and other firm stuff.BUT -- big warning from experience -- things like bamboo shoots and celery, that have strings in them, just tend to jam it up, so all you do is clean food-jams out (similar to log jams).Either get the strings out (celery) or chop them by hand.Also I think there may be a small problem (after bamboo) with the cutting edges getting dull. Being on the outside of the attachment, it should be possible to sharpen them with a fine file or sharpening stone, or else haunt the yard sales to get replacement parts from people who didn't like theirs...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. Nice.

Question: How much was the product on QVC?

Just saw a similar cart on QVC this morning for $33 including S&H and tax. The measurements were 13-1/2"W x 36"H x 12"D, not even as big as this one. This is bottomless. Holds everything including soda and packs of water and then the rest of your items... Just hold the handle behind you as you walk and it seems weightless. Goes up stairs. Folds into the trunk of the car without taking much space at all. I don't know how I ever did without this. An extremely small investment for a GREAT product that will become an absolute neccesity after the first time you use it..
