Perfect size and stackable!!
I had been looking for smaller Creme Brulee ramekins for some time. All other products were either not as good of quality, did not stack or were way too expensive. These are great! The perfect size for a single serving of Creme Brulee or any other custard/mouse dish, great value and they stack, so they take up very little room in the cupboard.Very happy with this purchase, use them frequently. | 1positive

Great Set - In Use for 5 Years
I read the other reviewer's comments and was shocked. Perhaps that person has a defective set that should have been returned. I live in the Southwest and have been using my Taos flatware for every day dining since 2001, and I have had zero problems. Nada. No nicks, no rust, and I love them because they match my decor and are very comfortable to hold and use. I am looking to buy more because so many of my pieces have disappeared (probably dumped into the garbage when guests cleaned up after themselves - Mother warned me about that!). | 1positive

Inexpensive Heat
Great product, in fact I am going to buy a second. Provides lots of warmth at its lower 400w setting, about 25% of energy used by many other electric heat devices. Nice features. Highly recommended. | 1positive

Not a great coffee maker...
I was disappointed with this coffeemaker. The coffee is luke warm and the 4 cups is more like 2. I would not recommend buying this coffee maker. | 0negative

Roma Juice Processor
We had a similar unit that was around 20 years old. Every time we used it would leak all over the kitchen floor making it a real pain to clean up afterwards. This New model is leak proof and is a real joy to use. It is very easy to setup and very easy to clean. The juice goes where it should and the compressed leftovers go thru a long tube away from the pount of operation so processing is easy. This product makes canning a job we look forward to doing in the fall. Highly recommended!!! | 1positive

Pleased with my knife purchase
I love these knives so much that I bought two additional sets to give to my brother and sister for Christmas. The products arrived promptly and were in very good condition. You have to be very careful using these knives because they are so sharp. The sharpness does where down after several months of use. I purchased the reccommended knife sharpener (with the comb fingers) and it sharpens the knives brand new. Great product. | 1positive

Wire Whip purchase

Scanpan Warranty is a Joke!!
I have this pan - worked great for about 1.5 years but then began to "bubble" on the flat surface. Obviously this is a manufacturing issue & Scanpan claims to have a lifetime warranty on manufacturer defects. I sent it off to the factory & they refuse the claim due to lack of cleaning...I work in a freaking research & development department for cookware. I know how to clean a fry pan. Their "claim" is a small area on the lip of the pan - FAR AWAY from the main bubbling issue - & an area I didn't scrub completely because once I noticed the bubbling, the pan is useless to me.This is a complete joke & their warranty "policy" is apparently: unless if falls out of the manufacturer's box in 10 pieces all while catching it on camera with a factory representative on hand, we will not cover.Roll the dice if you choose. This pan is so expensive, for them not to treat warranty claims with the respect they deserve is ridiculous. | 0negative

Not powerfull enough
This thing lacks any real power or rotational speed to clean quickly. I took this thing appart to get the head that locks into the cleaning items off. I then put a 1/4" shaft through the center of it and keyed it so it wouldn't turn. Now I can use the brushes with my 18v cordless drill on high speed to make quick work of cleaning. | 0negative

Excellent Sheets for a fantastic price!

Works great and looks nice
This pie server looks nice and works great. I have taken it to many potlucks and it has held up well. The only think I would change is maybe if it came with a slip cover like my old pampered chef one. | 1positive

Cant belive they sent me such a misleading blender
WE have the so called amazing bullet blender less than a week. The first time we made a smoothie with it the O ring came off the cross blade, makeing a mess. I was able to put it back in the grove and made another drink. The next morning i went to make a coffee mocha, I mixed all the stuff in tall cup, useing the cross blade i put it on the blender, the drink leaked throught the base into the bullet out of the bottom of the base onto my counter top,I checked the o ring and it was sealed, now i know they call it the magic bullet.We have tryed the seven second salsa, by the time you tryed to get the onions and cherry tomatoes choped it came out like mush, but that was my fault, they make it look so easy on tv. We are stuck with the blender now, DID YOU HAPPEN TO NOTICE IN THE USER GUIDE THIRE IS NO INTERNET ADDRESS OR E-MAIL FEED BACK TO THE MAKERS OF THIS PRODUCT. WHY? | 0negative

The amazing no-breeze fan!
The breeze provided by this fan can only be likened to the movement of air inside a sealed jar sitting in the sun: the air moves, but that movement is only detectable at the molecular level. With both motors of this fan running on high intake, you can feel the air move only if you're seated directly in front of it, at a maximum distance of about 24 inches. In fact, when I plugged in this fan for the first time and turned it on, I at first thought that the fan was set on outake (i.e., pulling air out of the room); instead, the most gentle imperceptible breeze was wafting directly at me. This fan is very quiet; however, no fan would be quiet as well, while the breeze coming through the window would be about the same. To properly summarily evaluate this product, I wanted to give it no stars, to indicate the fan's complete abandonment of its function, but alas, ... rating system's lowest rating is one star. Purchase this product only if you wish to circulate air inside a small box. | 0negative

An excellent way to achieve a carb coma!
First impression was that it might be cheaply made because of the plain packaging. Opening the box I found the machine was already put together and I was immediately encouraged by it's clean lines and size. Set up was quick and simple. The one handle provides the ability to crank both the roller and cutter section. The dial setting for the roller was simple to use and quick to manipulate even with flour on my hands. This machine was surprisingly well made for the money. I used my favorite pasta recipe and followed the simple directions provided. | 1positive

Impossible to clean
It can't be opened, and you are supposed to refill it through the spout, which is about the size of a quarter. Over time, buildup of minerals inevitably occurs on the inside surface and there's no way to get it out. | 0negative

My life went downhill after I bought the Giant Wine Glass.. It WILL start mocking you.
I was a drinker who could hold his own, but usually didnt quite polish off the entire bottle in a sitting. Generally I enjoyed 1/2 a bottle per sitting but decided to get the Giant Wine Glass on a novelty-- and hey, the less I have to fill up my glass the more convenient for me, right?I was so excited to purchase the Giant Wine Glass and shortly after it came in a mail I took it to a party to impress my friends. I planned to drink that night, but not over-do it. So, I filled the "proper goblet" with the normal 1/2 bottle amount I usually drink. When I busted out the glass I watched my friends ogle my glass in amazement, but soon the amazement turned to evil glares. It seemed that everyone's eyes seemed to be saying, "Why did you get the Giant Wine Glass that holds a whole wine bottle if YOU CAN'T HANDLE a whole wine bottle?" One of my friends even approached me and said, "Dude, your Giant Wine Glass, looks empty... Can't drink a whole bottle? You FAIL." Everyone started laughing and pointing. After that night I resigned to never drink the Giant Wine Glass in public again, it was too humiliating-- I would only use the glass in the privacy of my own home.One Friday night after work I decided to kick off my shoes and enjoy 1/2 a Giant Wine Glass of wine. I filled my glass halfway and sat down for a drink. Things seemed normal at first, but soon I couldn't shake the feeling the glass was mocking me. It seemed to be saying "What? Can't drink a bottle of wine? Why not fill up the glass all the way... that's what you got it for, you fake. Phoney poser. You can't even drink wine like a real man... even a French man can easily polish off a bottle of red wine." I told it to shut up, but it kept mocking me... That night I went to bed and could feel its presence from behind the cupboard door of the kitchen burning in my brain. I couldn't sleep, I could hear it saying, "You're a poser. Millions of consumers can drink a full bottle of wine, that's why this product exists on Amazon.com" Just to prove it wrong, I ran to the cupboard, grabbed the glass, filled it to the brim with wine, and took it to the head. From that night on, I began drinking full glasses until my tolerance level was raised to 4 glasses (bottles of wine) a day. I lost my job, my dog, my home was robbed, but strangely everything was taken except the Giant Wine Glass. Out of desparation one night I ran to the kitchen and shattered the glass. My life significantly improved after that. I now have a new job, a new dog, and a beautiful new home. But the Giant Wine Glass is banned from my new home...My tolerance level is still 4 bottles of wine per day, I just get up and refill my wine glass 82 times per night now. | 0negative

Cheap option for good solder fume filtering
In general, this filter is very good for spot cleaning air at small pollution sources, but too loud for quiet spaces and too small for anything but very small spaces.We are using this purifier to deal with solder fumes at an electronics workbench. This purifier works fine for this purpose, set on high and with a Honeywell 'H' filter installed instead of the 'C' filter that comes with the unit. You must solder within about 6" of the front grille of the purifier to pull the fumes through the unit. To my nose and eye, it both keeps the fumes out of my face and out of the room.Most of the cheap solder fume extractors on the market (Weller, Hakko, etc.) don't really do more than keep the smoke out of your face. Their filters are weak, so they require appropriate building ventilation. Ventilation in 'standard' office spaces are inadequate for soldering. Therefore, a solution that really scrubs the air is desirable, especially in winter when propping a door, etc. is impractical. A Hakko FA-430 in an excellent commercial solution, but they are well over $500 with hoses. This little Honeywell seems to be doing a nice job at < 1/10 the cost.I find this purifier loud enough to be annoying. Its sound is compromised of mostly the white noise of moving air (not so bad), with a bit of higher pitched whine, presumably from the fan motor (more annoying). For periodic use it is tolerable. In my opinion, it is too loud for any continuous use application except in spaces that are already noisy.I would definitely NOT use the 'C' filter for soldering. Lungs don't deal well with very small particles, and the more aggressive fluxes used with lead-free solders can generate 2.5x as many particulates in the 0.5 to 2.0 micron range as the older fluxes. The 'C' filter is specified to capture 95% of particles down to 2 microns. The 'H' filter is specified to capture 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns. | 1positive

Totally Useless
My forty year old tin sifter just stopped working one day. Can't believe how sad I was over a sifter. I immediately searched Amazon and found this one. I loved that it was stainless steel, had a top and bottom cover, and that it was made by Oxo. I never had a problem with an Oxo product before and bought this based upon the Oxo name.It really was totally useless to me. I attempted to sift one cup of powdered sugar and after a few minutes of shaking it back and forth, even checking to be sure I had removed the bottom cap, only about 2 tablespoons of sugar had been sifted. I took the handle of a wooden spoon to see if stirring would help. It managed to eek out another tablespoon or so. Since I had another three cups of sugar to sift, I used a regular strainer with a handle and my mission was accomplished. The sugar just seemed to clog up under the bottom mechanism and didn't budge. Baking should be fun, not frustrating.I have been a regular Amazon customer and this was my first return. No one enjoys wasting money, but that's what this product is. | 0negative

Wish I had taken it on my long overseas flight with me!
During a very long overseas flight and on the way back, I got absolutely no sleep! I had chosen not to take either of my travel pillows, the Tempur-Pedic Neck Support pillow or this NeckPillow. I thought they would take up too much space in my carry-on bag and chose to use the one the tour supplied. BIG MISTAKE! That was the most miserable flight over and the one back was even worse.Next time my Tempur-Pedic travel pillow will go. Something else will have to be left behind, but unless I suddenly decide to spend thousands to fly 1st-Class, I will either never fly overseas again or the pillow will go with me.I had tried to fit it into my carry-on bag. It just missed fitting. It really isn't very big, but would have been the perfect size during the flight. I just thought it looked funny stashed on top and I didn't want to bother with it in the airports. Next time it goes with me or I don't go.The only negative that I found was, it doesn't fit very well into the little pillow case that I bought when I got it. It slides out and looks kind of strange due to its unusual shape. It was always falling out of its pillow case. That wouldn't keep me from buying it again though. The memory foam is very nice.Thinking about it right now though, I think I would get a tiny Tempur-Pedic pillow with a normal shape rather than this one, just because it would stay in a pillow case better and, I think I might just find it more comfortable. The Tempur-Pedic memory foam part is a deal-breaker though. I would have nothing else! Love it! | 1positive

Just what I had hoped for
My previous food processor was a Black and Decker and it was not suitable in many ways. I've had this processor for a few weeks and have given it a real work out. I've made several pie crusts, chopped lots of veggies, chopped ham for ham salad, sliced cucumbers. It cleans very well in the dishwasher. Its also quiet. I'm anxious to try bread dough next! | 1positive

great kettle, but ours developed a leak
This is probably the best kettle I've used (out of maybe four in various countries). It heats water quickly, pours extremely well, is ergonomically designed, and is a pleasure to use, honestly. Our kettle, however, developed a leak at the bottom seal, ranging from a slow to fast drip. Braun no longer services these, so we have to send it in for a simple refund (at our expense). I would definitely considering buying another, however. | 0negative

Does what it is supposed to do ...
I ordered this to use on our ceramic top stove, as the cheap grocery store griddles that I have had in the past were simply not flat enough to heat evenly. This is an excellent quality griddle that is dead flat. The non-stick surface looks and works great. | 1positive

Good Luck
Good luck getting the old blade assembly out and this new one in. You'd be wise to note the exact order in which the many little parts are put together. I spent waaay too much time monkeying with this thing. I ended up buying a new blender jar with the cutting assembly already in it. A little more $$ but it fixed the problem instantly. Margaritas coming up. No hassle. | 0negative

Absolute junk!
I rarely write reviews, but this product was really awful: flimsy; and the levers broke off on first use. The plastic ones I bought at Williams-Sonoma a few years ago were MUCH better, but I couldn't find them anymore, so I thought I'd try these. I'd give them a negative star rating if I could. Do NOT waste your money. | 0negative

A must for getting the right shave-sharp serrated blade for those who dare?!
This allows you to get down and dirty into the cracks and crevices associated with serrated blades. Works like a charm....have the medium and fine of these. It makes sharpening your serrated edge knives a cinch. and this allows that extra fine sharpness to be achieved on any serrated blade! What more can I say? | 1positive

Pig Pan
This was a great purchase. I would recommend this pan to everyone. The cake comes out cute. Before pouring the cake batter into the pan, I suggest spraying it with (PAM for baking) so the cake will not stick. It is a little difficult if you are using crisco and flour. If you are using a ready to bake cake box mix, about one box is enough. Fill the pan about 3/4 of the way up. It is easy to clean and re use again. | 1positive

items came dented and warped.
I was really looking forward to receiving my new cookware set....but when I opened the box and took each item out, I was very dissappointed to find that many of the pans were bent and the bottoms were not level. I was very sad to have to send the entire set back. It looked to be a manufature defect, because the items were carefully packaged and shipped. | 0negative

Tried and True
This waffle iron looks exactly like the G.E. model I got as a present for my mom for Christmas over 30 years ago with the only difference being nameplate change. Same shape, design, and handles. Look no further than this one. I absconded the waffle iron when I moved out as my mom never used it anyway (glad you liked it Mom!) I'm still using it today. The griddle side makes perfect pancakes and grilled cheese; I don't think there's anything else that cooks them so uniformly. Get this one and your kids will be fighting over it when they're dividing up your stuff when you're dead and gone. | 1positive

Great and easy
Making a couple of gallons of homemade ice cream for a Heritage Day fair was the excuse for the purchase, which will be used for a long time. Of course it requires frequent tastings to get the balance right and ice cream which won't melt too fast. Follow directions and it is simple, easy, and fast. We harden to soft serve stage in the mixer and it freezes to pie a-la-mode quality in a couple of hours, with a very firm ice cream after overnight in the freezer. Sticking with french style vanillas so far, with some additives. Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream recipe bookBen & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Bookis a very good additional resource which explains various cream balances and effects of additions. The results have received rave reviews! We, too, keep the maker in the freezer so it is available at all times. | 1positive

Luck of the draw
I purchased this unit based on the high review rating, but must report that it was a piece of junk - defective right out of the box on the first use. It turned on fine, and I set it to "low". It zoomed instantly to red hot, and when I turned the knob to "off".. *nothing happened*. The power light stayed lit and the burner glowed ominously. Wholesale meltdown was narrowly averted by a quick pulling of the plug. We gave it a second chance after an overnight rest (perhaps it was just suffering from "opening night" jitters), but, when plugged in, it repeated its zoom to surface-of-the-sun temperature, and would not go off no matter how we turned, jiggled, etc the knob. Perhaps we just got the bad apple in the lot, but be warned: this unit is a gamble. | 0negative

unsure what the smell is...
Just got my Zo and don't understand why there's a smell of Ozone from it and now spreading throughout the apartment. Did this happen to anyone's first attempt? I thought it might be because it's new?? Unless the machine has been damaged? It did come with a damaged liquid measuring cup that was cracked on the bottom. Can anyone answer me?? | 0negative

Very Disappointed
I received these sheets several days ago. I wish I had read the reviews before I purchased them. I washed the sheets 3 times in Woolite and they were still very rough. Not the way 600 thread count sheets should feel. They are also very thick. Fortunately, Amazon allowed me to return them. That is why I love Amazon. | 0negative

Very Good Bar Spoon
The Winco is a very good 11" bar spoon that is heavy, sturdy, and well-finished. Curiously the spoon came without its advertised red rubber tip. Several other reviewers mentioned the same happened to them so future purchasers should expect the same. The Winco is a better bar spoon than the Excellante 11" bar spoon and costs 0.38 less. | 1positive

mission nightstand
This is a cheap nightstand. Unfortunely I don't mean inexpensive.This nightstand came with a damaged side board. with the way it was packed(nicely)it seemed to have been put in that way. The replacement came faster than the company thought, but I still couldn't put this together for over about 10 days. It does not require 2 people to put it togther, although the instruction said so. I could hear the wood crack when I put the screws in. I bought this for a child, but if I had another choice I would not purchase it again. | 0negative

Bissel Powerforce Bagless Vacuum
this vacuum starts out fine and then shortly within a month or so, the dust starts to creep out of the crevices and openings; the filters, three have to be cleaned often and the vacuum is not sealed tight-- so, a disappointment--love seeing the vacuumed residue in the clear cup--needs to be improved. | 0negative

Nice batter bowl--with a handle

Hamilton Beach Brew Station Deluxe
Not good. I received the pot missing a part. I contacted Amazon, who told me to contact Hamilton Beach. I did that with no luck whatsoever in getting the part replaced.

I'm diggin' it!
I purchased a white version of this heater elsewhere about a month ago. I love it. It is in my daughter's bedroom, which tends to be colder than the rest of the house.At night, I turn it on to the low setting, set the temperature, set the timer, and it does the rest. It isn't as loud as my older heater that it is replacing, and I don't have to worry about remembering to turn it off in the morning.I have since purchased a second one for my bedroom.I have not had any of the problems the other reviewer mentioned. | 1positive

Very disappointing product
Who would think that after centuries of practice -- maybe even millennia -- humans could completely botch the design of such a simple item as a teapot? And this lovely-looking teapot is made by a great company to boot. Unfortunately, my little beauty will either have to go into the trash bin or be repurposed as a flower vase.The bad:No matter how low the flame, the handle on this teapot becomes *burning* hot on the stove. The whistle has to be pulled out of the spout by hand to pour the tea. Unfortunately, the cute little ring on the end of the whistle which is meant for pulling also becomes searingly hot. Since the boiling hot whistle stubbornly refuses to leave the spout without a very hard yank, getting your "relaxing" cup of tea actually requires donning enough gear to handle a nuclear waste spill. You need to wear 2 oven mitts -- one to protect the hand that is yanking on the whistle, and the other for the hand that is grasping the red-hot handle in order to anchor the pot so that it doesn't skitter across the stovetop while you struggle. After a month or so of this whistle-yanking, my whistle seems to have developed a fracture and it's now tough to get it in at all. Oh, and did I mention that this teapot is really expensive? When one pays this much for a simple appliance, one expects much better design and quality.The good:The pot is beautiful. It will make a stunning, albeit very pricey, flower vase. | 0negative

Best buy and Great Grill!!
I did a lot of research before purchasing this product. The price here on Amazon.com was the best one I could find.The product far surpases my expectations. Meat cooks evenly and rapidly. The grills are easy to clean and dishwasher safe. The fats drain off into the collection container. I was originally worried because the container for fat collection wasn't attached, but have found that it does the job very well. The waffle maker does a great job and we've even grilled sandwiches.I'm very pleased with this product. | 1positive

cheap and cheap
You very much get what you pay for--I bought two including one for a friend. This is a very cheap plastic bottle filled with paraffin capped with a cheap stopper/wick assembly. Wick that was not properly placed and had to be adjusted before the first use. The bottle is somewhat sealed by a plastic stopper. (one leaked in shipment and soaked the box in paraffin). Do NOT leave this item burning unattended. Odorless, smokeless and NO safer than a regular candle | 0negative

Bought for p90x
This mat is very think relative to other yoga mats and that works well when working out on a hard surface. Some other reviews have complained about slipping, but this hasn't been a problem for me. It might be because there is a distinct top and bottom and if it is upside down it is slippery. If you are planning on traveling with this mat be aware that it is heavy, so if it is a long way from the car to the studio it'll be some work. | 1positive

Crispy Critter Waffles
I have used this maker several times and on the lowest temperature setting #1 and the waffles are dark in color,crisp and have a slight burned taste. According to the instructions setting #3 is for golden brown waffles, NOT TRUE! I've been making waffles for years so I know how to operate a waffle maker. My preference is a softer, light golden brown waffle. Needless to say this item will be returned. On the plus side, easy to use, non-stick surface works great! | 0negative

Unobtrusive hanger
As I mentioned, the hanger is unobtrusive. It pulls out when you need a place to hang clothes after washing and folds back down to be out of the way. It holds maybe 5 hangers loosely. The product performs as it is meant to, so for that it deserves the 5 stars. | 1positive

Good coffemaker
This is a very good coffee maker that produces smooth-tasting coffee. The only problem is the turn on switch. It is a toggle switch which leads me to believe it will break at some time since it would be easy to. It should have been a switch one presses top or bottom for on or off. But the coffee-maker looks very nice in the kitchen and the pot is large and it has a filter inside to make the coffee extra smooth. | 1positive

Not terribly good, especially given the price
Grinds well enough, but we are returning ours because the beans don't fall into the burrs very well, and no actual grinding takes place. I find that I have to open the jar on top of the grinder, and push the beans down so that they actually go into the grinding burrs. Tried three different types of (non-flavored) coffee. Between this and the scattering of the coffee grinds, this machine just doesn't cut it. Too much hassle. | 0negative

These were awful. The width is incredibly thin and the height is way too tall so it was impossible to get dough out of them.They wrecked my contribution to family cookie day. | 0negative

Not a good cooker
This plastic microwave cooking device does a horrible job of making poached eggs. It gets the egg too done. | 0negative

A dangerous flaw in the design
This product has a dangerous flaw in the design. Where the base connects to the upright there is an electrical connection. That connection arcs and causes the unit to cut in and out. Eventually the connection melts and unit will not run. There is a definite fire hazard with this product. Additionally with Fantom's warranty policy you have to ship the unit to them at your cost and include $19.99 for return shipping. | 0negative

Fun to use
You only have to turn it over and pepper comes out. You can control the grind too. Mostly positive. It is difficult to open the bottom and then line it up again to close. Other reviewers warned about overloading the pepper, watch the fill line. I will do that. We are enjoying this! | 1positive

THE BEST COFFEE
I found this coffee at - would you believe - Burger King? Yes. I tracked down the brand they served and it was Douwe Egberts. I bought the Senseo coffee maker and have used Douwe Egberts ever since. I'm not the only who loves it, either. Whenever I serve coffee to guests they rave about it too. My daughter's mother-in-law bought a Senseo because she thought it was the best coffee she'd ever had. She drinks decaf. You can keep Starbucks. It tastes burnt. You can have "Blue Mountain" and all the other premium brands. Douwe Egbert's is the best, bar none! | 1positive

Web info still wrong
Web info says this item is dishwasher safe, which is why I purchased it. Nowhere on the packaging or care instructions does it say that it is dishwasher safe. I plan on using it in the dishwasher anyway. We'll see how it goes.Also, for those who care about this sort of thing, the thermos is made in China. | 1positive

very disappointed
Bought this vacuum from amazon five months ago, it's already died. Really expected more from electrolux - I'd never buy another one. The bag inside is awfully small, so it really doesn't hold much. I've got 2 cats, and it did a fair job of cleaning, but the vacuum head is pretty large and bulky and it wasn't anywhere near as good as the miele that it replaced, which managed to last for 6 years. Awfully disappointed in this vacuum. | 0negative

jacquard sofa throw
this throw does not fit a regular size couch very good, it is too long lengthwise and widthwise is too short. The couch cover comes down from the back because it is not wide enough to cover the couch and when you sit on it, the back of the cover slips overtop of the sofa. Would not recommend this product | 0negative

Great price for a home grinder
If you've already got a KitchenAid, then you really should own this. Make your own sausage, hamburger, etc. In looking at this from the perspective of a home sausage maker (not a professional sausage producer) here are my notes:Pros:* The price is right.* You get a reasonable selection of plates for griding* The feeder actually doubles as a wrench for tightening the .. dunno what you call it.. it holds the grinder together. It is NOT the wooden feeder pictured with this product.* The tray is adequate for home useCons:* The feeder, if used for stuffing with stuffing the stuffing attachment is a failure, but that's really more related to the stuffer review.Some other things:Whatever you do, don't get the matchingKitchenAid SSA Sausage Stuffer Kit Attachment for Food Grinder. Yes, it's cheap... and it's not worth what you pay for, unless of course you like frustration. Get yourself a proper stuffer likeTSM Products 5lb Sausage Stuffer with Cast Iron Frame. I own its twin and I'm very happy.When using, it's wise to drop the parts in a solution of water with a dash of bleach. Like beermaking (where I did the same thing with bleach) sausage making is something that you have to pay great attention to unwanted microbial growth.I also recommendPlastic gloveswhen making sausage. Partly for the health reasons, but I gotta be perfectly honest: I just hate cleaning up after handling spiced and/or ground meat. It's a whole lot easier to pull off the glove and toss it. (This applies for sushi making, too.) | 1positive

Scratchy & wrinkly
I'm hoping that if I wash these sheets to death, they will soften up. So far I've washed them twice with both fabric softener and dryer sheets and they are the scratchiest sheets I own. These are the only "luxury" sheets I own, and they are worse than all my others which are standard sheets. They are also wrinkly straight out of the dryer.... which I don't really care about but just be aware. Look elsewhere! | 0negative

Cheap and Incomplete
When I make the mistake of buying a cheap product that I need to assemble myself, a very basic demand is to have all of the parts needed for assembly. I didn't, and I have better things to do with my life than spend hours of it on the phone, trying to explain which cheap pieces of junk I need somebody to send to me. This otherwise usable piece of pressed-board furniture has now been assembled with screws from my garage. | 0negative

Clear plastic table covers
These are great! Just what we needed to keep out linen tablecloths stain-free. The only problem that we have found is that the 60 inch cloths do not cover a 60 inch table. They just cover the top. We are using the 70 inch cloths on our 60 inch tables for maximum protection, afterall, spills rarely stay just on top! We will be ordering more, just wish there were larger sizes in round cloths. | 1positive

Black and Decker G48TD Grill and Waffle Baker
This product is great - I looked for several months to find this combination. This grill heats fast and we have enjoyed using it! | 1positive

Good for The Price
I bought it because it was on sale for $12.99. It does the job. Every time I open the plastic lid I feel I will break it. Just a few tiny screws locking a very thin plastic lid (the boiling high temperature makes me feel worse).I believe it's not a good idea to boil water in plastic containers. Stainless or glasses is much safer and healthier. But they costs a lot more. | 0negative

Exactly what you need to make your Dust Buster work again.
This is the exact replacement air filter (and bracket) for the older Dust Buster models (check listing to make sure your model is listed). If your Dust Buster is slow, loses it's charge quickly and doesn't seem to work right, it might be that the filter is clogged, like mine was. This seems to have fixed the problem. | 1positive

great mixer
I got mine this past week on Monday via ups took no time at all to get it. Very nice mixer. Not a darn thing wrong with it that I could see. Great price ,reasonable. one wouldn't even know this was a refurbished mixer cause its performance doesn't show it or the cosemetics. only a small amount of paint off the flat beater no biggy cause the machine works excellent. and looks beatiful. Beautiful black color. And talk about feeling like a professional baker that really does it. I made a beautiful sugar free pudding pie with homemade whipped topping looks like a pro did it but it was with help from my good ol trusty ka mixer I just got. . | 1positive

Great addition to a cheap mattress
We bought a cheap mattress for a second spare room thinking that nobody would actually use it. We were wrong - and the mattress was really cheap. Add this foam and you have the comfort of a much more expensive mattress. would I recommend sleeping on it every night? no. Nothing replaces the support of a good mattress, but I would absolutely recommend it for a spare room for company. It has enough support to keep them comfortable, but not enough for them to want to move in... | 1positive

"smelly, moldy, meldewy!!!!!"
Delivery was very quick. But when it came, it was very smelly. Smelt like mold and meldew. When you opened it, it had white specks all over it that could brush right off, but the stench was totally unbearable! I contacted the company, they sent another one, with return postage for the first one. Second one was the same! They credited my account for the purchase amount but not the postage! The box itself is very pretty and just what I wanted, but can use it because of the stench!!!!! | 0negative

Long shipment time, not the quality I expected
I ordered this rug for my husband as part of a "man-cave" remodel. He is a huge Bills fan, and thought this would fit right in with the theme. I ordered the rug August 3-I didn't receive any tracking information for almost 2+ weeks, then the item didn't arrive for about another week beyond that time. "Standard shipping" is listed as 2 weeks at best....I was already irritated by this but thought as long as the item was what I expected, I'd overlook it.The day the rug finally arrived, my husband and I opened it only to find the rug had a horrific odor, and dark brown stained spots all over it as if something was spilled on it. The packaging was intact from Fedex, so I can only assume that the stains were there PRIOR to shipment. Not a very good impression for the company.I will be returning this rug and cancelling my order, although I suspect I'll have to pay to have it shipped back. I hope others have better luck! | 0negative

Best Spatula
Got this to keep from scratching pan, but we absolutely love it and use it in non-stick also. (Actually it's the only one we ever use anymore.) Thin, strong enough and JUST RIGHT for omelets. | 1positive

Didn't holed up to lite use!
We've had our blender for about 3 years and have used it only for blending salsas and sauces, used maybe total of 20-25 times. It died this past weekend while blending grilled vegetables and avacados for a sauce, nothing difficult about that but the unit didn't sound right and like it was bogging down, then just died. There wasn't any electrical smell or excessive heat that I could tell, it just sounded like it was struggling and died. I assume the motor and electronics are bad. We also have a 3-year old Cuisinart microwave which after only a year and half of use, the carousel motor went out. I was able to find a replacement on-line after getting no answers from Cuisinart othar than having to send it in. If I were Cuisinart, I'd look for a new motor supplier. | 0negative

Breaking Bread
First I must say I use Amazon whenever I possibly can because of their customer service. I bought this Sassafras La Cloche to help me improve my sourdough bread making process. The first round loaf I made under the bell was beautiful. The second time I used the la cloche, warming the entire unit in the oven from 0-425 degrees caused the bottom of the la cloche to crack at about 375 degrees. I notified Amazon who within two days replaced the entire unit, no questions asked. Having read other reviews of this product, I see quite a few people have had the same problem with the bottom plate. I am afraid to use the bottom plate again, so I use it to store the finished product. It is a great crumb catcher. I substituted the bottom portion with a ceramic pizza pan and set the La cloche lid on top. Works great and the bread is outstanding. Thanks Amazon! | 0negative

Great Buy
This product does everything that it says it can do quite well actually. You really dont require the manual except for figuring out how to synchronize the atomic clock. Everything else is pretty simple to use and straight forward. The display has a good contrast and is readable. The indications on the display concerning temperature, pressure, weather forecast is self explanatory. One look at the display and it is evident. Overall a great buy. | 1positive

The best I have ever seen
I have purchased other syrup dispensers in the past, and all of them broke. Usually the thumb lever jams with dried syrup. This one is a unique design that appears to prevent this problem. And, it even comes with an extra O-ring :-) | 1positive

Suck
I brought three sets of these sheets and I must agree with everyone else that after I washed them they were no good. I now use them to clean my car and mirrors. There were only good reviews when I ordered. I will never order sheets from here again. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY. | 0negative
