Question: What was the flaw that the trash cans have when they arrived?

I love these trash cans. They look clean and fit well in tight spaces like I needed. Only downside is they are fragile and easily dented. I ordered two of them on the same order and both arrived with dents in them. They were packaged in a box barely big enough to hold them with no padding or protection other than thin plastic bag. Fortunately I was able to situate each can so the dented side is against a wall so it doesn't show. If you are lucky enough to get yours undamaged, I'm sure you will be pleased with this trash can.

Question: How much volume does the casserole portion have?

This is a wonderful product, and I thoroughly expect to get a lot of use out of it. For years, I've been putting a colander insert in my pots to steam broccoli and other veggies, and I've been thinking there had to be a better way. This is it.The casserole portion has a great deal of volume... it's about 4 inches deep, but HUGE across. Big enough to boil potatoes in, while using the steam for other dishes. The steamer insert is about another 2 inches high. This means you can steam a lot. I've steamed fresh broccoli and carrots for about 4 people, and it was not crowded. Chicken breasts (multiple) will fit.The holes are small enough that things probably won't fall through, but big enough that they won't clog up.Cleanup is very easy on both the pot and insert. All told, this is terrific, and will be heavily used in my home.

Question: What feature is an aid in being able to read better?

The dial is very large which I like so it can be read easily. The housing seem to be made of good quality materials. I like the fact that I don't have to look up cooking time because it's on the face of the dial.

Question: How does the cord get stored on the warmer?

Great product! I have to say this lunch warmer heats food quite evenly, much better than a microwave. My husband and I keep stash of healthy leftovers in 2 cup round glass containers in the freezer to grab and go. These work beautifully with the lunch warmer. The night before, I choose lunch for the next day, put it in the frig to partially thaw and my lunch is ready to slide into the crock pot warmer once I get to work the next morning. No spills on the way to work as it is partially frozen, and the 2 cup amount is below the max fill line on the metal insert. I must say I am looking forward to our next road trip as I plan taking 2 crock pots, a cooler and an inverter to help minimize the monetary and weight gain expense of travel. I've read complaints about the cord length (3 ft), but any longer would make it awkward to wind and carry. Liked this product so much, I bought 7 of them as gifts, all greatly appreciated....even got a lunch text photo from my son, the engineer and a big thank you from my Marine! Enjoy

Question: which company made the second place opener?

This opener is what the US made "Swing-a-Way" was 50+ years ago. Unfortunately, that name is not worthy of the design. Steuby & Co. made their production on that really works. Steuby's can opener has fluid gear mesh and longer twist handle to give better leverage than other designs. The knife is sharp and angled correctly in order to engage and cut lids. The insulated red handles of the grip cover just a little longer "tang" of metal, allowing for better grip on targeted can. The unit has endured Industrial washing and all the metal is still unblemished, indicating superior quality steel. All the details were identified, considered and executed perfectly in design and manufacture. This is the superior product. The second place can opener goes to 4 Peaks Tech, for their unit.

Question: Why is it possible to see the contents of a cup through its lid?

This dabba is just what I was hoping for. The stainless steel cups (7) fit perfectly in the larger container, and the lid fits tightly even with the spoons (7) in the individual cups. The clear lid is nice because the spices look so pretty inside of it. The dabba feels well-made. It is sturdy and has a little weight to it. I think it will last me a very long time.

Question: What was made to try out the skillet and see if food would sick to it?

This thing is great! I've only had it a couple weeks so I can't attest to its longevity, although all the other Presto products I have keep doing what they're supposed to without any breakdowns so I'd guess this one's no exception.Since I got this in the mail, I've made all sorts of stuff - fish/oyster courtboullion, pancakes, hoecakes, a seared steak (Yum!), even a cake! There's so much you can do with it. Another advantage is that it's allot more energy efficient than using a range top. All the energy is directed to one purpose, and not heating up your kitchen instead.And NOTHING sticks to the surface! The test of this was to cook coarse-ground yellow grits in it. They have a fairly high sugar content and will stick to virtually anything while cooking over an hour, creating a several hour soak to clean. Groats do this also. Anyway this skillet did the job. I just flipped the skillet over and out came the grits! I didn't even have to pry them out! I'm very pleased with this skillet, and it's the perfect size for a couple people. Great stuff!

Question: What is left when you remove the base

I'm in a tiny RV and got this for the foldaway feature. It's bigger to store than any of the 10" and 11" skillets I've had in the past. You remove that base, and there are feet under it, just like on the non-foldaway ones. In fact, the base clogs up the inside, so the lid can't be stored with the handle down. Its snap-off handles are wobbly, making it feel insecure to lift. This whole foldaway structure seems to be a waste to me.It heated quickly and cooked fine, so I gave it 3 stars, but most of them do. I wanted this one for the foldaway feature.Someone commented that all the parts stored inside might scratch the teflon, so I kept the piece of thin foam that protects the inside. I line it with that before storing the parts.It's nice and deep.I'm pretty sure I'll replace it in the near future.

Question: What type of carpet does the author own?

I have several problems with my arms. It is extremely difficult for me to usean traditional upright vacuum/or a canister type style; where you have to pushand pull with your arms. I invested in an iRobot vacuum; which at first wasjust the ticket. Then it started having issues, EVERY single time I'd use it.And it was rather a pain to go through all the "steps", to try & find the problem.And it keeps beeping at you; and driving you NUTS !!So, for the price; I decided to try this VERY lightweight little upright.For me....it's the BEST EVER. My arm can handle the little bit of weight,and it had better suction than I ever thought it would. Now, I have only tile,and low pile carpet. So, for me this works excellent. I'm not sure itwould work as well on high pile carpet. I LOVE IT....and will buy another onewhen the time comes. Eureka has been a trusted name in vacuums for years !!

Question: What is the name if the hand held vacuum the customer decided on?

With two cats, little messes--litter, catnip, fur, food--are inevitable, but hauling out the big vac is more of a production than I can usually be bothered with. But my last hand-held vac was a total waste of time and money. It had very little suction and clogged up quickly (you'd think with so little suction that wouldn't happen, but anyway.) Granted, this was about 10 years ago. So it was with some trepidation I selected the Pet hair Eraser. As it turns out, I am reasonably satisfied with it. It has a decent amount of suction, although of course it doesn't do as good a job at the big vac. It picks up litter and cat food quite well, fur and catnip slightly less well. But for a quick tidy-up, it certainly serves its purpose well. I've used it for maybe 15 minutes now and haven't had to recharge it. I do have to empty it after every use (a good sign, really, that it's functioning well). The filter does clog up, but it washes easily.My one big complaint is about the "integrated crevice tool." It's not really a crevice tool so much as a narrow opening for the vac itself. It's not really narrow enough to be a crevice tool, and not really big enough for the vac itself. I wish they hadn't gone for the compromise here.

Question: what is the max time you can set for cooking items on the product?

This is a versatile steamer compared to others I've used before. The dual steamer basket allows for you to cook for just one, or a whole family. You will have to plan your meals to put the longer cooking item on the bottom. The innovative design allows the extra cooking capacity to break down for storage by allowing the bowls to fit inside each other and stack upside down on the unit so it takes up little more space than the base unit.The digital controls are a change over other units I've used which had an old style mechanical kitchen timer. The controls are easy to set and allow for more precise setting so dishes can be cooked the same every time you cook them. The max time that can be set at one time is 60 minutes, but as most things are cooked in half that time.The cons are that the unit can't be refilled while cooking and the overall construction and materials are not as good as others I've tried in the past. Full MSRP is a bit high, but if you can find this unit on sale, I'd definitely consider it.

Question: what does the outside of the machine feel like?

I sure hope it lasts though! There been alot of comments that these frothers break down after a short while or straight out of the box. My friend bought the capresso machine and it didnt work out of the box so it was returned. This one works beautifully do far, I love the feel of the machine. It feels like ceramic sorta, it has a nice weight to it. Love the design. I hope it lasts even though it has a warranty I'm assuming because we really enjoy this little machine. The little circle ball you see is a storage area for the one whisk your not using, it's a very cute design touch. This comes with 2 whisks but the little circle seems to fit one only, I guess you keep the other on the machine because your using it. Well I can't say enough about how great this machine is so far. I hope it lasts past the warranty which should be about a year I imagine.

Question: What did they dislike about their former unit?

I agree with all the reviewers that this is SO simple to use and SO unbelievably fast. Cheaper cuts of meats cook tender & quickly. I can cook "slow" recipes on weeknights with easy cleanup & so much less stress. Bean soups are a breeze. And I read that the electrics use 70% less energy. So fast cooking, more nutrition, more flavor, able to cook cheaper & healthier foods, save on energy--how cool is that? I used to use a stovetop pressure cooker but you have little control over the temperature/pressure (see below).As for the sticking issue, I find you need to be careful at the 400F ("browning") temperature not to scorch foods, esp veggies, flour-dredged meats--turn the temp down to 300 or 350F; but if you are searing uncoated meat, 400F is ideal for a good fast sear that releases from the metal. It also gives a nice carmelized flavor. If your meat is sticking, you could be turning it too quickly. Jiggle it before trying to pull it up to see if it releases.This cooker is nice because you can always turn the temp down a bit if you're nervous about burning. Gives you a better feel for cooking in this pot, I think.By the way, for recipe conversions:High setting = 250F = 15 psiLow setting = 225-230F = 7.5 psiBrown = 350-400FAnd I LOVE this book: http://www.amazon.com/Bob-Wardens-Slow-Food-Fast/dp/0984188711/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s;=books&qid;=1294439241&sr;=8-1

Answer: little control over the temperature/pressure

I agree with all the reviewers that this is SO simple to use and SO unbelievably fast. Cheaper cuts of meats cook tender & quickly. I can cook "slow" recipes on weeknights with easy cleanup & so much less stress. Bean soups are a breeze. And I read that the electrics use 70% less energy.

Question: What also comes with the Miele vacuum cleaner?

If you are looking at this, you have probably bought a Miele vacuum cleaner like we did. Our house is about half tiles and the other half carpeted. We decided to purchase this attachment for use on the carpet. After several use, I have to say that I could do without it. The one that came with the vacuum cleaner is more than adequate for both tiles and carpet. I can not tell the difference between the two and it is too much of a hassle to stop and swap out. So if you are considering....save yourself some money and stick with the one that came with the unit; you are not missing out on anything.

Question: What animal is the reviewer intending to butcher with the heavy cleaver?

Bought it primarily for use breaking down rabbits. I have also used it to cut spare ribs into 1/2's for making adobo. It is a very heavy cleaver that appears to hold a great edge. The blade image is a bit misrepresented, it's carbon steel - so it will get dark. You can shine it up with steelwool if ya want it shiny. The carbon steel will hold a great edge and can easily be sharped. I'm not sure how I got by this long without one in my kitchen.

Question: Does the machine have a storage area for a whisk?

Answer: The little circle ball you see is a storage area

I sure hope it lasts though! There been alot of comments that these frothers break down after a short while or straight out of the box. My friend bought the capresso machine and it didnt work out of the box so it was returned. This one works beautifully do far, I love the feel of the machine. It feels like ceramic sorta, it has a nice weight to it. Love the design. I hope it lasts even though it has a warranty I'm assuming because we really enjoy this little machine. <hl> The little circle ball you see is a storage area for the one whisk your not using, it's a very cute design touch. <hl> This comes with 2 whisks but the little circle seems to fit one only, I guess you keep the other on the machine because your using it. Well I can't say enough about how great this machine is so far. I hope it lasts past the warranty which should be about a year I imagine.

Question: what does the product do?

First of all, this is exactly what I was looking for as far as asthetics go. It looks naturally aged. But...I wish it were a better opener. It does open bottles but you have to really snug it up against the top of the opener. Sometimes more than once. I don't know what's so hard about recreating a bottle opener that has been a standard for so long.

Question: The customer liked this bowl better than others for what reason?

OXO makes really nice equipment and I find myself wishing more of my kitchen of my gear was made by them. I was in need of some new mixing bowls, having a leftover plastic bowl from my mom since college and a very heavy porcelain one.I found this bowl very light to hold in the arm for whisking or stirring. The no-skid bottom is absolutely fantastic and keeps the bowl put for heavy stirring or using a hand mixer. The plastic itself is very sturdy and I haven't had any issues in the dishwasher with it. Top all of that off with the easy pour spout and horizontal handle for pouring (making stacking a cinch) and you have a near perfect bowl.I can't imagine too much making this bowl better. Get it, it's worth the price for sure.

Question: What presents a challenging cleaning problem for the reviewer?

This is a great little steam mop -- perfect for the kitchen. We have stone tiles in the kitchen and I've been finding it hard to clean lately. I don't like using a lot of chemicals, so I've been boiling water and using that as mop water. This is perfect -- saves me a step and works twice as well! The cord is really short, so I have to unplug it and re-plug it in 3 times in order to do the whole kitchen, but that's really my only complaint. I also wish there was another cloth that came with it so I would always have one ready when the other one is in the wash. Quick to heat up and quick to dry as well. Really enjoying this product!

Question: Did anyone recommend the blender?

We have had this blender for over five years now and it is an absolute workhorse and hands down the best blender for crushing ice. The construction of the blender is quite solid and the motor is powerful enough to handle anything you are looking to blend. The best feature by far: ice crushing. Recommended by Cooks Illustrated for this feature, this blender is incredible at crushing ice to the right consistency for a crushed-ice margarita, which, let's face it, is one of the best reasons to have a blender. Not to mention the fact that it is gorgeous in orange. A best buy for my kitchen for sure.

Question: What size setting is good for the user's french press?

I've owned two, both less than a year old. The one at home works like a champ (and I really like it), but the one at work just died for no reason. I took it apart, cleaned and examined it, couldn't see anything wrong. Still doesn't work. It had "stopped" working a few times, so I would adjust the cord (unplugged, etc) and it would start working again. Reliability is a hit/miss I'm guessing.I do like it though. The coarse setting is great for my french press, and the finest section does well for my espresso machine. Works well and is affordable.But I'm torn whether I'll replace it with the same thing. Hard to spend money on something you like, but not sure will work.

Question: what feature of this machine helps with draining the water?

Is quick and efficient. We keep it in our kitchen. Yes, it's loud, but it neither bother me NOR my boyfriend at all. As you've probably read, you can set what you want the humidity to be at and it will run until it reaches that point. No, the machine doesn't turn off when it gets to your ideal level, but it WILL kick back in if the humidity rises again. For the price and what it offers, I think it's a great deal. I don't have tons of money to spend, but this has proven to be a great investment. The tub has a nice handle to help with the watering emptying process. As mentioned, we keep it in the kitchen, so the sink is right there. So, that's how we use it. Great purchase.

Question: What is it made of?

I have the Damask Dark Gray Heather Pinzon Plush Throw, 50 X 70 inches. Made in Portugal, it is a 60% cotton/ 40% acrylic blend that is incredibly warm and soft for both its size and thickness.This has a reversible contrast pattern (note: flipped-down corner of the product photo) that looks really amazing. It adds an elegance to my family room, making it an appropriate complement for nearly every season.This is made with the type of overlocking stitching that I usually see around the edges on many higher-quality fleece throws. However, it goes even further by having an embroidered edge ON TOP of the usual stitching.I am now ready to stop bringing my bulky, fuzzy green queen-sized comforter (a major eyesore) into the living room to keep off the chill.Truly, the attention to detail along with quality material/construction gives me confidence that I should be able to enjoy the warm comfort of this beautiful throw for years to come. Love it!

Question: The design of the teaspoon is very what?

These are decent teaspoons for a reasonable price. Ultra simple style. The handle has an upward tilt at the end for easy gripping. I recommend these for stirring coffee/tea and for eating cereal. IMO, they're too small for soup or other heartier dishes, mainly because the handle is relatively short and the "eating" portion somewhat shallow (although not narrow/small). My 5 y/o son uses them with ease. They are not flimsy at all yet not too heavy. The finish is highly polished/mirror, which does show some scratches. I've run them through the dishwasher with Finish Power Ball detergent tabs with good results.

Question: What item was bought by the customer?

I got this for Christmas and I love it! The quick start guide was easy to follow and I had it going within a few minutes of pulling it out of the box. I was concerned that cleanup might be a problem, but it was really easy to clean with a soft dish brush and a little soap, just be careful when cleaning the frother. I had family over for Christmas so made a few different drinks. Being Christmas, I had eggnog so made an eggnog latte, then made a regular latte and after that I made a sugar free coconut milk peppermint mocha. I am no barista and they were all delicious and tasted like coffeehouse drinks! It also has a heat and froth function which is great if my drink gets cold and needs reheating. I also love that it comes with a recipe pamphlet. Now that I can make great coffee house drinks at home, this latte maker will have paid for itself within a few weeks.

Question: What does a good baking tool make for the process?

Most everyone loves a sweet treat and when the treat is made in your own oven, the freshness and flavor are often second to none. A good baking tool makes the process much simpler and this baking aid from Freshware is certainly one to consider buying. It helps create up to 30 shapely, delicious sweet treats from scratch, right in the comforts of home.Candy isn't usually baked in the home and part of the reason is the lack of appropriate baking molds. With this simple, silicone device, an individual can make candies that keep their form and look every bit as nice as they taste. With other baking sheets, the candy doesn't always hold itself together, but there is no problem with this Freshware mold. Each piece of candy pops out of the mold in perfect condition, like a work of art, ready to display on a plate and enjoy for dessert or a snack.This candy mold utilizes non- stick silicone and it is reasonably easy to clean. The flexibility makes it easy to pop the candies out of the molds without damage and that means less cleanup afterward. Other baking molds do not have a reliable non- stick surface like this one and not only does it lead to sloppy looking candies, it also means more scrubbing and scraping to remove the leftover bits of candy when cleaning. With this simple, inexpensive candy baking mold, there is little to do. A little warm water and minimal scrubbing/wiping and the job is complete.We usually prefer to buy candy already made but with this Freshware candy mold, creativity in the kitchen is more commonplace than before. Candy prepared with this baking mold looks and tastes great and for such a low price, you really cannot go wrong.

The flexibility makes it easy to pop the candies out of the molds without damage and that means less cleanup afterward. Other baking molds do not have a reliable non- stick surface like this one and not only does it lead to sloppy looking candies, it also means more scrubbing and scraping to remove the leftover bits of candy when cleaning. With this simple, inexpensive candy baking mold, there is little to do. A little warm water and minimal scrubbing/wiping and the job is complete.We usually prefer to buy candy already made but with this Freshware candy mold, creativity in the kitchen is more commonplace than before. Candy prepared with this baking mold looks and tastes great and for such a low price, you really cannot go wrong.


Question: What size is pretty heavy?

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 can only hot water extract?

The system itself has good intentions and isn't overly cheap, but it is certainly not going to make the complex cup of coffee that a french press or Chemex will.I have never had a problem with the acidity of coffee, and when I tried cold-brewed, it was the bland taste that lacked all the complex flavor notes that drove me away. Maybe for iced coffee - maybe - but not for the add-hot-water-to-concentrate crowd that has cropped up. You are short-changing the complex flavors that only hot water can extract.

Question: How strong are these bags?

I bought these for my Sears Kenmore Canister Vacuum. I have been using these after market bags for three years and there is zero performance difference in these versus the OEM bags sold at Sears other than the price. Well, unless you just happen to like yellow bags versus white ones in your vacuum. They fit perfectly, hold as much and never rip. I love Sears appliances but I refuse to pay twice as much for their after market products that have no measurable advantage. Model compatibility check was super easy at this vendor.

Question: What list has the reviewer put another pan on?

I purchased this pan at Macy's, and love it so much that I have put a second one on my Amazon Wish List (about $3 less than Macy's).The non-stick surface works like a charm - with just a little bit of greasing ahead of time, nothing sticks. Cleanup is a snap, with just some soapy water and a sponge.The pan is sturdy, distributes heat evenly, and most importantly - the bottom latches securely into the top, forming a solid seal that does not leak.I cannot think of any negatives for this pan (I cannot say the same for another no-name brand pan that will be tossed out as soon as I get my 2nd Anolon)

Question: How often is the product used?

We purchased this on Jan 29, 2014. Now less than 5 months later the teflon coating is coming off in our baked waffles. We use it every day and care for it per Cuisinart's instructions. I'm nursing a 3 month old baby, and I can't be eating teflon unknowlingly. No one should be! I'm going to try and post pictures. In addition to the obvious product flaw, this waffle maker gets extremely hot steam (burn worthy) that pours forth from where the handle attaches between the iron plates. The iron plates get hotter in the middle and so the waffles don't cook evenly. They get darker in the middle and the edges are still soft. But my major complaint is the peeling teflon.

Question: What problem does the meat thermometer have?

We picked up a William Sonoma remote meat/temp probe a while back. After long use, the probe cord material starts to crack (especially if you let the grill get too hot). ONce the insulating material starts to crack the probe reading becomes variant and intermittant if at all. I ordered this on line as I could not find a replacement for my "William Sonoma" Brand. Works like a charm. I've booked marked this part as I'm sure I'll need another one in a year or two .. but then we smoke and grill all the time

Question: Where does the writer put the leftover food?

I love my new pan. I live alone, but like to bake for gifts and monthly card parties. This is perfect, as I can have five for the guests and hoard one in the freezer, without wasting the left overs (or eating it myself)! Nice solid construction, and although the design looks really tiny in the picture, it is not so narrow in reality. A true mini traditional Bundt pan, which is what I was aiming for. Maybe I will get more daring with designs, later, but was concerned about definition of design on a smaller scale. Very pleased. Would highly recommend Nordic Ware for its quality.

Question: What grind does the Unicorn Magnum produce?

After two (2!) William Bound pepper mills purchased at the same time both broke in exactly the same place after only two years of use, we began looking for new mills. Who knew finding a decent mill would be so difficult? The plastic housing is off-putting, but other than that, we are happy with this mill. We prefer a truly coarse grind, and Unicorn Magnum delivers. Easy to load, produces lots of ground pepper quickly, fits will into the hand - although a little too slick if one's hands aren't perfectly dry. Easy to adjust to a finer grind, too. A similar model with an attractive natural wood-housed grinder would be a 5 star product.

Question: Why is the back of the new chair so comfortable?

My previous desk chair had just about no padding left in the seat (thanks a lot, Skyrim and Red Dead Redemption) so I was excited to try out this mesh back chair.Assembly was very easy and only took about 5-6 minutes using the included allen wrench.After a few days of using the chair extensively I can report that it is extremely comfortable. The seat has great padding and the mesh back is contoured which really helps my lower back. My previous chair had a nearly-straight back and I guess I didn't even realize how uncomfortable it was.The height can be adjusted, from "holy cow, I'm towering over my computer desk" all the way down to "uh, I'm not sure I can get up from down here."I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because it just doesn't have as many options as you might expect to see in a chair in this price range. There is no way to recline, and there are no arms. Neither particularly bothers me, as I primarily use it for PC gaming, but there are a lot of high-quality chairs out there that offer a recline option and arms for around the same price.Overall, this chair is very comfortable and I'd recommended it as long as you understand its limitations.

Question: For which machines is this filter suitable?

The product description on this page says this filter fits Mavea classic, Brita and Pur, but the box doesn't. I gave this a try as I have Pur and my Mom has Brita so it won't go to waste if it doesn't fit Pur.So, I tried this on my Pur pitcher. My Pur filter is much longer and I would assume contains more of the filtering material; it also twists and locks into place. The Mavea filter does not lock into place, you simply just push and twist it as far as it can go. Well, I'm happy to say that it fits and doesn't leak.Taste wise, the water tastes good. I already use Mavea pitchers and filters so I have no complaint with the taste. And if you use Brita pitchers, you can finally drink water that doesn't have those black bits in them.Verdict: Fits Mavea Classic, Pur and Brita. Tastes good. Shop for price and get the best value.

Question: What was the main reason for replacing the vacuum?

We replaced our old Hoover after years of service. Having a large dog takes a toll on vacuums in terms of nasty odors over time. I prefer bag less vacuums so my wife has no excuse not to clean such as out of bags (just kidding). The suction seems pretty good, it is much lighter weight than our old unit. It is not a rainbow or some other miracle vacuum that costs 10 times the price, so keeping that in mind it works well. If you need a $2000 vacuum to clean your floors I would suggest more frequent cleanings, or calling a therapist. I clean mine occasionally out side with compressed air to get all the dog stink out of the filter housings. Be sure to clean all of the filters a few times per year.

Question: What is the writer's opinion of the product?

This clothes butler is a nice surprise - very stable and surprisingly sturdy. The finishes are attractive and it was very easy to put together. I think this clothes butler would work just as well for a woman as for a man as it is also a bit taller than I expected. If you are in the market for one of these I believe you would be quite happy with this. There are many that are more expensive, and others that are all wood, etc., but this one has a charm of it's own and has quite a modern look to it. I can confidently recommend this product. A little bit about the seller - 2K Furniture Designs: There was one small 0-ring that I was missing when I received the product - and I contacted the seller and I received a prompt reply and a week later received two 0-rings. I mention this only because it is always good when a seller stands behind their product when there is a problem and 2K Furniture Designs did just that. Very impressed.

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

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

Question: What size battery is required?

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: They had the best coffee before who woke up?

This is one of those invetions I wish I had invented. Simple, durable, inexpensive and the best damn coffee you can brew with a very simple set up and easy clean up. We took it traveling and it takes up no space (fits in a shoe when you pack) and, along with an electric hot water boiler, we had the best coffee on the ship and before room service ever woke up. If you like your coffee and tired of breaking the glass French press unit, this is for you. In fact, I think the coffee it makes, if you follow the directions and pour the water slowly, makes much better coffee than a French press. You will need a finer ground or at least that is what we used same as for espresso. It might work with regular grind but you'd need to experiment.

In fact, I think the coffee it makes, if you follow the directions and pour the water slowly, makes much better coffee than a French press. You will need a finer ground or at least that is what we used same as for espresso. It might work with regular grind but you'd need to experiment.
