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

seam becomes permanently visible | question: What happens if you don't properly iron linen or wool garments?, context: It's not that using the iron is so terribly difficult but, with garments made of linen or wool, you can often iron in such a way that a seam becomes permanently visible. The steamer allows you to get rid of creases and wrinkles without leaving collateral marks on the clothes. It also is a great way to "refresh" otherwise clean clothes that I'd normally send to the dry cleaner just to get them to hang properly again.The hanger that's included isn't that great, but when I substitute my own padded hangers it's ideal.For whatever reason, using the iron seems like a chore, but using the steamer is like playing with a toy. It's easy to set up and operate, plus it saves me money! I love it! | What happens if you don't properly iron linen or wool garments? | It's not that using the iron is so terribly difficult but, with garments made of linen or wool, you can often iron in such a way that a seam becomes permanently visible . | It's not that using the iron is so terribly difficult but, with garments made of linen or wool, you can often iron in such a way that a seam becomes permanently visible.

Timolino | question: what was backed by experts?, context: This Timolino was backed by very credible experts, yet it is NOT a TRAVELING tumbler, as they claim it to be. Though coffee will stay hot in it for hours, acting as a small carafe, you cannot succesfully mobilize it - for the lid drips out coffee. The lid is not deep,even slanted - so coffee easily spews out of it. If they changed the lid, to put a closure which at least snaps into place, it would be useful as a mobile coffee tumbler. The closure slides and DOES NOT LOCK INTO PLACE. Ironically, if it tumbles, coffee spills out and ruins anything nearby. The price is too high for what it really does, since you have to leave it in the office or at home. | what was backed by experts? | This Timolino was backed by very credible experts, yet it is NOT a TRAVELING tumbler, as they claim it to be. | This Timolino was backed by very credible experts, yet it is NOT a TRAVELING tumbler, as they claim it to be.

2 | question: How many of these did the reader get?, context: First of all it's hard to find a funnel that is not plastic. I have plenty of those. This one is great, with the strainer that comes with it. I bought 2 of them...one for me and one for my daughter. I deep fry and the oil is expensive so I reuse it but it needs to be strained. Prior to buying this funnel I used cheesecloth as the strainer. It usually was a big mess. And it's perfect for straining broth or gravies. It's very useful, and you couldn't beat the price. | How many of these did the reader get? | I bought 2 of them...one for me and one for my daughter. | First of all it's hard to find a funnel that is not plastic.

$6 or $8 | question: What is the amount that this person thinks you should pay for this item?, context: If you simply want to go back to the '50s this tray is what you want. After reading the instructions that say to let the tray stand 2 min and not fill past 3/4, the tray probably works well. However, by the third filling ice started sticking. I'm used to the plastic trays where the ice drops out easily. After a month the ice stuck so bad (right out of the refrigerator) that I had to run it under water. The tray (I have 3 of them) is an ordinary old fashioned tray of my childhood. The tray is strong but stacking isn't as easy as I would like.. they set atop a narrow ridge in the center of the tray which leaves them teetering. Also, the beautiful blue rubber holders fall off after a few uses. Unless you're prepared to glue them back you might as well throw them away.If this tray cost $6 or $8 I would be happy, but not at $27.50, this is for collectors only. | What is the amount that this person thinks you should pay for this item? | If this tray cost $6 or $8 I would be happy, but not at $27.50, this is for collectors only. | If you simply want to go back to the '50s this tray is what you want.

into the hose | question: Where do they place the attachment part?, context: 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. | Where do they place the attachment part? | I place the attachment part into the hose of my vacuum, and as long as I hold it, it fits. | It does technically fit my Eureka Air Speed bagless vacuum, but that's not to say it actually attaches or fits by itself.

the feel of the handle grip | question: Name one thing the reviewer likes about the product?, context: This is my second T-Fal purchase, spend 6 mo with their cheaper model, and thisProfessional model is a pleasure to use. So many features and I'm able to use metalturners with this one.Only time will confirm how the anti-warp feature will work but meanwhile I'm a happy camper.I like the feel of the handle grip and the see through lid. I'll let my cast iron skillet rest for a while.When and if it warps, I'll update this promptly.Don't waste your time and monies on the cheaper models, I'm sorry I did.Good Luck9/21/13 after extensive use it has not warped and it's been through some heavy usage.11/25/13 and it will warp, lots of usage and it is warped, very disappointing.*** 11/29/13 *** after a call to Amazon got the number for T-fal USA then got into and endless telephone loop where you just listen to the computer repeat the same message 5 times, hangup- and rewrite my review, they are not specific about the warrant, so forget that and so I'm back to a clad stainless steel that I know won't warp. It was great until it warped and that was reason for buying this in the first place. So my stars go from 5 to 2 or 3, because you can still fry in it on a gas stove, and the lid works, it did not change when the bottom warped.MY advice move on don't waste your money on one that has no warranty department that you can talk to.I'll just donate this to Goodwill tor a tax deduct. | Name one thing the reviewer likes about the product? | I like the feel of the handle grip and the see through lid. | This is my second T-Fal purchase, spend 6 mo with their cheaper model, and thisProfessional model is a pleasure to use.

sticker shock | question: What's the first thing a potential purchase might experience when first seeing the portable A/C unit on a website?, context: When you first see the price tag on this portable A/C unit, you might suffer a bit of sticker shock, but let me tell you right out - it is worth every penny. First the portability. Yes, the item in question weighs roughly 100 lbs, but the portability doesn't have to do with the weight, but rather the ability to have it anywhere in your house or apartment rather than shoved in a window. The portable in the title doesn't imply lightweight to some, so I'm making the clarification here.The portable unit covers about 550 square feet, which is wonderful if you have a small apartment, loft or studio. It's also wonderful to have if you live in an apartment complex where AC is only on from say, May to August and you experience a heat wave or you live in the South where it's still warm long after Summer ends. In any of these cases this A/C unit will be a godsend. This would also be great on a screened in porch.Now even though you don't need to put the unit in a window, you do need to use one for the Window, which again limits the actual portability for the unit. The length of the exhaust kit is not very long and there's no real way to lengthen it, so keep that in mind when considering to purchase this.Now I have to again state that the A/C unit works wonderfully. it gets the room or area un question quite cool and it does so quickly. This probably won't be a replacement for central air, but It's a far better choice than the old fashioned clunky boxes you stick in your windows. | What's the first thing a potential purchase might experience when first seeing the portable A/C unit on a website? | When you first see the price tag on this portable A/C unit, you might suffer a bit of sticker shock , but let me tell you right out - it is worth every penny. | When you first see the price tag on this portable A/C unit, you might suffer a bit of sticker shock, but let me tell you right out - it is worth every penny.

cat | question: Who's condo tree was cleaned with this?, context: I also cleaned my cat condo tree with this, and though my results were not as spectatular as another reviewer, it still turned out really clean. Perhaps with consistent use it will be better. It's nice to hold onto, very comfortable, nice long electrical cord. The rubber end with the nubbins that grab hair works really well in any direction it is used. Very easy to disassemble to empty and clean debris.I took an old mascara brush (cleaned well in soapy water to remove all remnants of mascara) and use it to brush between ripples in the filter to help clean it out more when I am doing using it. Works really well. | Who's condo tree was cleaned with this? | I also cleaned my cat condo tree with this, and though my results were not as spectatular as another reviewer, it still turned out really clean. | I also cleaned my cat condo tree with this, and though my results were not as spectatular as another reviewer, it still turned out really clean.

The other day | question: When did the person go to their female parent's house?, context: The other day I was invited to my mother’s house for dinner. She was making me some potatoes in the over and had one of these liners on the baking sheet. I never thought about using one.I bake a lot and will admit I hate it when things get baked on the baking sheet and it takes forever to soak and clean. The whole house then starts to smell. I can’t think of anything I bake that is over 450 degrees; these are safe up to 480.I have been using them with tater tots or things that leave a lot of grease left over on the pan. The liner is still greasy but the clean up is a breeze! I just place the tater tots on the liner, bake, and then remove all to cool down. Once cooled down I place the baking sheet back in the cupboard and only have to clean the liner, it saves a lot of time! I like that you can even wash it in the dishwasher. That comes in handy too.These are one of those things that you did not know you needed until you have them. I had no idea my mother has been using them for years. They also come in handy to make dough and place on the counter top. You also do not have to place the liner in a sheet; you can place it directly in the oven.I was worried that the tater tots would not get crispy but they did. Same cooking time and they were crunchy. I am very impressed and love that there is two of them in case you need to use both at the same time.Sample item provided. | When did the person go to their female parent's house? | The other day I was invited to my mother’s house for dinner. | The other day I was invited to my mother’s house for dinner.

measurements | question: What are hard to read on the spoons?, context: My grandkids love to help in the kitchen so I thought this would be a good set to use for their hands. The mixing bowl is decent quality, as is the wisk. The spatula is a little stiff and the labels for the measurements on the measuring spoons and cup are hard to read. However, the spoons are useable. The cup is all in ml/cc's! How does that help in the typical American kitchen? The cookie cutters are dull and aren't straight up and down, are sloped inward as you cut, not sure why. There are a dozen of them, mostly identifiable.We'll continue to use most of the stuff, but the rest are bathtub toys. | What are hard to read on the spoons? | The spatula is a little stiff and the labels for the measurements on the measuring spoons and cup are hard to read. | My grandkids love to help in the kitchen so I thought this would be a good set to use for their hands.

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

deep | question: What kind of mattress does this cover?, context: To begin, I was looking to protect my new mattress from sweat and body oil (not urine, rain, floods, or any of the other liquids some others seems to want to protect their mattress from, judging from the reviews). For that, it is perfect- covers the deep mattress well, seems to be resistant to liquids seeping through, and isn't too "plastic" feeling (has a nice, thin terry cover). I can't speak to being able to cover the mattress from bed wetting, but it you're looking for a well made cover to protect your mattress from normal sweat and body oils that seep through sheets, I rate this product very highly. | What kind of mattress does this cover? | For that, it is perfect- covers the deep mattress well, seems to be resistant to liquids seeping through, and isn't too "plastic" feeling (has a nice, thin terry cover). | To begin, I was looking to protect my new mattress from sweat and body oil (not urine, rain, floods, or any of the other liquids some others seems to want to protect their mattress from, judging from the reviews).

sharp edge | question: The reviewer wanted everyone to beware of what?, context: This ring is dangerous. Handle with care. After unpacking I immediately went to the sink to submerse the ring in order to remove the product decal sticker on the side. I dropped it into the soapy water and let it sit. Then coming back with ample time to allow the decal to dissolve, I reached into the water to pull it out and my hand went into the ring and my finger came across the inside of the ring that is creased over. The contact point where the WOK will sit. I drew my hand out literally in pain as it opened a half inch cut into my finger bleeding as you can imagine.Simply put. BEWARE of this sharp edge. It is razor sharp.It fit my WOK perfectly but I'll always be concerned about cutting myself. I'll either correct the problem by bending the lip all the way around or I will put it in the trash to make sure no one else gets cut. | The reviewer wanted everyone to beware of what? | BEWARE of this sharp edge . | This ring is dangerous.

Juiceman Jr | question: What did they use previously?, context: Very pleased. I did a lot of research before buying a new juicer. I had been using a Juiceman Jr. It worked well and was durable, but it was sooooo loud. This is very quiet, small hum from the motor, and the actual sound of the vegetables being ground/squeezed. That's about it. Pulp comes out quite dry and is easy to feed through a second time if you want every last drop of juice out of it.Clean-up is much easier than I expected. I just fill a sink with warm soapy water while I'm juicing. When done, before drinking the juice, I disassemble the juicer (very easy to do), and place the parts into the water, letting them soak while I enjoy the juice. When done drinking, I rinse the parts under running water - usually that's all it takes. Occasionally the juice or pulp catcher will need a gentle rub with a cloth or scotch pad, usually not. The only part that takes any effort at all is the actual screen, but it is very small, so quite quick. I just use the scotch pad on it, inside and out, then rinse, takes about 30 seconds on a bad day. | What did they use previously? | I had been using a Juiceman Jr . | Very pleased.

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

replace another small one | question: Why did the person buy the vacuum?, context: I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have. This little baby really picks up stuff that my other one never did. It's light weight, perfect size for a one bedroom apartment with a mix of hardwood and carpeted floors, and easily glides from one surface to another. It has a anti scratch resistant squeegee blade that picks up the smallest dirt on hardwood floors and the rotary brush assembly does an excellent job on the carpet plus bristles for the corners that more expensive vacuums have. Since I've only had it for a week, the test will be how well it works (has a 1 year warranty) in the long run, but for the price I can't complain. | Why did the person buy the vacuum? | I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have. | I bought this vacuum to replace another small one that I have.

It's light weight, perfect size for a one bedroom apartment with a mix of hardwood and carpeted floors, and easily glides from one surface to another. It has a anti scratch resistant squeegee blade that picks up the smallest dirt on hardwood floors and the rotary brush assembly does an excellent job on the carpet plus bristles for the corners that more expensive vacuums have.

doesn't seem very well insulated on the bottom as the metal part gets pretty hot | question: What is wrong with the thermal mug?, context: I got this coffee maker to replace my old Melitta Take-2 and never much cared for the weak, lukewarm K-cup coffee makers. The Kitchenaid makes an 18 ounce mug of very hot coffee. The thermal mug doesn't seem very well insulated on the bottom as the metal part gets pretty hot. The tilt out and removable filter compartment has a re-usable basket but also looks like it might have been designed to use a disposable #2 paper cone filter but they don't fit. The feet on this appliance are very sticky which I suppose is a good thing for most people but I need to slide it in and out from under a cupboard so it is a bit of a bother to me. Also, the feet have stained my laminate counter top. The price here shows a retail value of $99 but the Kitchenaid retails at major department stores in the mall for $79. | What is wrong with the thermal mug? | The thermal mug doesn't seem very well insulated on the bottom as the metal part gets pretty hot . | I got this coffee maker to replace my old Melitta Take-2 and never much cared for the weak, lukewarm K-cup coffee makers.

made from bamboo | question: Why specifically did the person buy these sheets over others?, context: Not only do these BedVoyage sheets look great but the super soft feel is fabulous! The bamboo fiber has a cool feel like high thread count cotton sheets but are creamy soft. These sheets are like a dream come true for me as I like the cool feel of cotton and their soft cozy comfort.We bought these because they are made from bamboo a renewable resource and now we will buy another set because they are comfortable and beautiful. These should be ideal for use all year long as the fabric has a thermal regulating feel to it.I see that BedVoyage also has duvet covers on Amazon and one of those will be on my next shopping list. | Why specifically did the person buy these sheets over others? | We bought these because they are made from bamboo a renewable resource | Not only do these BedVoyage sheets look great but the super soft feel is fabulous!

They will last a long, long time | question: What do I believe about the life span of the containers?, context: First thing's first: 50-piece means 25 containers and 25 lids. I feel like "50 piece" is slightly misleading but hey, I guess all the manufacturers do that.These containers are really nice as they come in the perfect sizes and the lids/containers are extremely durable. I don't foresee having to toss any one of these any time soon. They will last a long, long time.The only problem is that out of the dishwasher they seem to have a residue over them. I don't know if that's a problem with the material they use collecting the soap/detergent, or if it's a problem with my dish washer but it's relatively annoying.If anyone else has a problem with this, I'd like to know out of curiosity.Other than that, nothing but good things to say about these. The lids snap together for really nice storage organization. | What do I believe about the life span of the containers? | They will last a long, long time .The only problem is that out of the dishwasher they seem to have a residue over them. | First thing's first: 50-piece means 25 containers and 25 lids.

you'll wonder, as I have, how you got along without it to this point. | question: Why should I buy this pan?, context: Visitors to my kitchen spot this pan and often ask what I use it to do. My answer: "Name it". Sautee some chopped onions before adding in fresh fish or poultry? Check. Scamble up an omelet with saugage on the side? Not a problem. Mix up a batch of cornbread dough, pour it into this pan then pop in the oven? Don't waste my time!It's just a terrific can-do pan that does everything I've dreamed up for it to do, cleans easily, and is ready for more. I've even started a few meat dishes in the pan before finishing them in the oven, that is browning on the stove top and slow roasting or baking in the oven to finish up.

second tablecloth | question: What did the author also get?, context: I put this on my very long table over a cloth tablecloth and it fit great and looked great! I can now change my cloth tablecloths to match the seasons and can protect them with this plastic tablecloth. I was grateful I was able to find a tablecloth long enough to fit comfortably over my table (the tablecloth is 60" x 124"). It also seems like it will not be ripped up as quickly as some of the more flimsy plastic tablecloths I have had on the table. Nevertheless, I purchased a second tablecloth as a backup. They were reasonable enough. | What did the author also get? | Nevertheless, I purchased a second tablecloth as a backup. | I put this on my very long table over a cloth tablecloth and it fit great and looked great!

The resulting bread has been very tasty (and hopefully healthy as well) | question: How satisfied were they with the bread?, context: My mother finally convinced me that great bread requires freshly milled flour (apparently, whole wheat oxides after milling, so "whole wheat flour" is not the whole grain). I found this mill easy to set up and has, thus far, worked reliably for grinding wheat and rye. The resulting bread has been very tasty (and hopefully healthy as well).The mill is loud (I guess that's why they rebranded from "Whisper Mill"), but I've never seen a mill that wasn't. It appears well-made and supposedly has a high-end electric motor. It mills the 500g for my bread in less than 20 seconds. The only setting is the grain coarseness. | How satisfied were they with the bread? | The resulting bread has been very tasty (and hopefully healthy as well) .The mill is loud (I guess that's why they rebranded from "Whisper Mill"), but I've never seen a mill that wasn't. | My mother finally convinced me that great bread requires freshly milled flour (apparently, whole wheat oxides after milling, so "whole wheat flour" is not the whole grain).

very scratch resistent | question: How tough is the cookware?, context: Excellent quality cookware. My husband has a tendency to use metal utensils in cookware so I was looking for something nonstick that could take a little abuse. I found it here. If you season them properly per the instructions included, they are indeed nonstick and very scratch resistent. Clean up is a breeze. Love the vented glass lids and coated handles. They take a while to heat up on the eye but once they get going, they cook on a much lower temp then my other cookware. All the handles have nice large holes that will fit any pot rack hook with ease. Wish they came in another color besides the bright red, but I can live with it as all else is wonderful. | How tough is the cookware? | If you season them properly per the instructions included, they are indeed nonstick and very scratch resistent . | Excellent quality cookware.

6 year | question: How old is the Anolon Advanced pan?, context: I wondered why the price was so low on these pans, as Anolon Advanced is ususally twice the price. I was replacing a 6 year old Anolon Advanced pan just like the 10" skillet in the package. My older pan weighs twice what the new one does, and I was replacing it because the non-stick coating was worn.This pan, although lighter weight, cooks well. It is still heavy enough to produce even heat with no burning. I expect that it won't last 6 years, being lighter than it's older version, but I am happy with the price and the quality.Essentially, you get two skillets for the price of one, and this is a good buy. | How old is the Anolon Advanced pan? | I was replacing a 6 year old Anolon Advanced pan just like the 10" skillet in the package. | I wondered why the price was so low on these pans, as Anolon Advanced is ususally twice the price.

adjustable frame | question: What item did the consumer purchase?, context: I purchased this adjustable frame and the frame broke into two pieces in less than seven months. They obviously don't know how to weld two pieces of metal. In pursuing action on my warranty I find I will be without a frame for the bed for over two weeks at least. Leggett and Platt are not very helpful. Seems I need to wait for the parts and then arrange for a service call. And so on. I was told thatconsidering the damage to the frame they would probably just replace the item. Oh no, they won't. So I will be without a bed for over two weeks and then I wonder once they fix it will it be broken again in another few months.

Do yourself a favor, don't buy this product. | 5dd47bfccc027a086d65cd38 |
two | question: How many colored stripes were there?, context: Who would ever think that two little tiny stripes of color would make a white towel look so darn elegant? Not me. This touch makes these towels something special.The towels are larger than a standard bath towel, somewhere between the standard size and a bath sheet. I'm a big guy and this is just about the perfect size. The towels arrived with a lot of sizing on them and really need to be washed a couple of times before they are super soft and absorbent. One side is nubby less and absorbent. The other side is super absorbent, smoother, and feels a bit like a microfiber towel (it isn't really that fine, just close to that feeling).These are just so darn nice. | How many colored stripes were there? | Who would ever think that two little tiny stripes of color would make a white towel look so darn elegant? | Who would ever think that two little tiny stripes of color would make a white towel look so darn elegant?

mid-thirties | question: When did they first develop allergies to dust?, context: This is a no frills HEPA air filter in terms of its aesthetic: it's an efficiently designed rectangle, and though it's not snazzy on the outside, it's not offensive or obtrusive either.It sits in my home office, and does its thing quite well: cleansing the air, and overall improving the living conditions in a space in which I spend entirely too much time.I ordered this unit because I had begun to develop dust allergies in my mid-thirties and was having trouble focusing and getting work done. I noticed an improvement in the way I was feeling shortly after the unit was put into operation.The unit, though not cheap, is a particularly reliable model and is extremely cost-effective to operate over time. As any one who has done the research can tell you, the true expense with HEPA filters is not necessarily the up-front purchase cost, but the cost of replacement filters over the course of the years. Austin's design is one they stand behind with a 5 year warranty, and a filter rated at needing replacement once every 5 years... yes, you read that right. All you need do in order to achieve this longevity is to vacuum the pre-filter every few months. This is accomplished by running a bristled vacuum wand over the outer surface grating. It's simple. It really is: set a reminder in your calendar to run the vacuum over it and you're safe.The unit doesn't take up a lot of room, though it does produce a fair bit of sound in 2 of its 3 settings. The base setting is actually pretty quiet, but the middle and upper settings are noisy - the trade off is that at these settings it moves A LOT of air, which is what you want if you're trying to quick cleanse a room. To give you an idea of what I'm trying to say, while you likely wouldn't have a hard time sleeping with setting 1, you might with setting 2, and you DEFINITELY would with setting 3. Of course, everyone's mileage varies and I'm using words to describe an audible volume, which is not the same as hearing it yourself. As I said earlier: it's in my office, not my bedroom, so I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER with its performance.If you're looking for a bedroom model, you might look into an Alen A350 HEPA Air Purifier (wall mountable and quieter.) | When did they first develop allergies to dust? | I ordered this unit because I had begun to develop dust allergies in my mid-thirties and was having trouble focusing and getting work done. | This is a no frills HEPA air filter in terms of its aesthetic: it's an efficiently designed rectangle, and though it's not snazzy on the outside, it's not offensive or obtrusive either.It sits in my home office, and does its thing quite well: cleansing the air, and overall improving the living conditions in a space in which I spend entirely too much time.I ordered this unit because I had begun to develop dust allergies in my mid-thirties and was having trouble focusing and getting work done.

liquid Dial soap | question: What do they fill the bottle with?, context: I've had a good experience with this bottle, but I haven't been using is for lotion as the name suggests. I buy Dial antibacterial hand soap in large eco-friendly refill bags (Dial Eco-Smart Pomegranate & Tangerine Antibacterial Moisturizer Hand Soap Refill) and pour it into this dispenser, using it as a soap dispenser in my home bathroom. I've been doing this since July of last year (so 7 months now) and I've not had any problems with the bottle. We are a family of 4, all using a single bathroom. So the bottle sees a lot of use. But it's never clogged or leaked or anything like that.I can't say how will it does or doesn't work for lotion, but it works great with liquid Dial soap! | What do they fill the bottle with? | I can't say how will it does or doesn't work for lotion, but it works great with liquid Dial soap ! | I've had a good experience with this bottle, but I haven't been using is for lotion as the name suggests.

improve grip substantially | question: What does the black rubber in the middle do?, context: As I've gotten into home mixology, I've realized that I need proper tools. This OXO double jigger fits the bill perfectly!Each side has three very clearly marked increments for very precise measurements. While it may sound silly, the black rubber in the middle really does improve grip substantially. This is also dishwasher safe. I typically keep it tucked away, but while out, this is a very nice looking piece of equipment, perfectly matching many other items like myOXO Good Grips Steel Cocktail Shaker(also highly recommended).Perfect execution on a necessary bar tool at a wonderful price.

returned the grinder | question: What did the reviewer end up doing with the product?, context: I really wanted to like this grinder, but a major flaw in it is that you can only grind 20 seconds worth of coffee every five minutes. I like my coffee strong, but I only make about six cups in the morning. This grinder only grinds half that amount during the 20-second time period (which is the maximum amount of grind time you can choose). According to the manual, when that 20 seconds is up, you have to wait five minutes before grinding again; otherwise, the manual warns that the motor may overheat. So, to grind my usual amount of morning coffee will take 5 minutes and 40 seconds. That's too long for my rushed mornings.I returned the grinder for that reason. | What did the reviewer end up doing with the product? | I returned the grinder for that reason. | I really wanted to like this grinder, but a major flaw in it is that you can only grind 20 seconds worth of coffee every five minutes.

cinnamon-sugar | question: What sweet powder does the author store in this product?, context: These containers are a great deal. Love the whole set. Some people have complained that some of the containers are too small to be useful, but I LOVE all the different sizes. There are enough larger ones for my family of 5 and I use the tiny ones all the time for storing things like cinnamon-sugar, peanut butter for lunches, leftover toppings for meals like Hawaiian haystacks, etc etc. I find them all very useful and very convenient. | What sweet powder does the author store in this product? | There are enough larger ones for my family of 5 and I use the tiny ones all the time for storing things like cinnamon-sugar , peanut butter for lunches, leftover toppings for meals like Hawaiian haystacks, etc etc. | These containers are a great deal.

remove the ionizing coils | question: What must be done first to the purifiers to prevent the release of ozone?, context: We have a house with an open floor plan, and were not yet ready to install a HEPA filter on the furnace. We bought a couple of these for smaller spaces, and a different larger purifier for the largest space. These have been great! My husband (an allergist) has recently become very allergic to the cats. By banning the cats from the bedroom (every allergist's first recommendation), and using these in the bedroom and his office, those spaces are constant "safe" zones. I am very pleased. I'm back online to purchase two more because I love what these do for the air circulation in our poorly ventilated house. The upstairs is chronically 5-10 degrees warmer than the main level, and our bedroom unit circulates the air such that our room in more comfortable than it has been in years. We are putting these in the kids rooms in place of their white noise machines (on the highest filtration setting, the "white" wind noise of these purifiers is more pleasant than the machines we use), and to improve air circulation. When I vacuum the filter, it is always filthy, but it doesn't seem to ever be overfull, the unit seems to always be effective. By having two more of these, we expect it will improve the overall air quality as well as circulation. For the price, I definitely recommend these!(BTW, for those wondering about ionizing units, the ionizing units release ozone, and the allergy community feels that even the small amount of ozone released can be more irritating to asthmatics than the allergens, and thus the latest recommendations say to avoid any purifier that releases ANY amount of ozone. My husband had us turn off our furnace air filter and remove the ionizing coils, and just replace the coils with a cardboard filter. It's hardly a perfect fix, but it is better than the ozone (we didn't realize) it was releasing before. We'll get a whole house HEPA eventually, but one step at a time...) | What must be done first to the purifiers to prevent the release of ozone? | My husband had us turn off our furnace air filter and remove the ionizing coils , and just replace the coils with a cardboard filter. | We have a house with an open floor plan, and were not yet ready to install a HEPA filter on the furnace.

25 minutes | question: How long did it take to make beautiful creamy center hard boiled eggs?, context: After reading nearly every review and what others liked and didn't like about this product, I tested it. Since I have lost so many eggs after putting them on the stove, walking away and forgetting about them until the burnt smell brought me running back, I thought an egg cooker would be the perfect answer. The automatic shut-off and the continuous loud ring were the plusses for me. The precise amount of water (with the measurement marked with a small piece of white tape because, yes, they are hard to read), 4 large eggs and 10 minutes later, I had a beautiful creamy center hard-boiled egg. Since I love h-b eggs, that was the point. If it didn't work the first time, this cooker would have gone back immediately.In the meantime, I also put 4 eggs into a pot of cool water on the stove. It took 10 minutes to boil and now I am timing 15 minutes for the cooking time, 25 minutes already. So this cooker is fine with me!Since I usually buy XL eggs, I am going to give them a try later. If the results are any different, I will add it to my review.2nd use - 5 beautifully fluffy XL hard-boiled eggs. NO buzzer!3rd use - 4 beautiful h-b eggs. NO buzzer!Returning this one. As this is the only one with automatic shut-off and continuous buzzer, I've ordered another one in the hopes that it will work for a good long time. | How long did it take to make beautiful creamy center hard boiled eggs? | It took 10 minutes to boil and now I am timing 15 minutes for the cooking time, 25 minutes already. | After reading nearly every review and what others liked and didn't like about this product, I tested it.

The precise amount of water (with the measurement marked with a small piece of white tape because, yes, they are hard to read), 4 large eggs and 10 minutes later, I had a beautiful creamy center hard-boiled egg. Since I love h-b eggs, that was the point. If it didn't work the first time, this cooker would have gone back immediately.In the meantime, I also put 4 eggs into a pot of cool water on the stove. It took 10 minutes to boil and now I am timing 15 minutes for the cooking time, 25 minutes already. So this cooker is fine with me!Since I usually buy XL eggs, I am going to give them a try later. If the results are any different, I will add it to my review.2nd use - 5 beautifully fluffy XL hard-boiled eggs. NO buzzer!3rd use - 4 beautiful h-b eggs. NO buzzer!Returning this one. As this is the only one with automatic shut-off and continuous buzzer, I've ordered another one in the hopes that it will work for a good long time. | It took 10 minutes to boil and now I am timing 15 minutes for the cooking time, <hl> 25 minutes <hl> already. | After reading nearly every review and what others liked and didn't like about this product, I tested it.

key lime green | question: What is the color of the sheets?, context: Some issues:1. Italian, Egyptian? But not cotton. Morally questionable if not outright false advertising.2. LOTS AND LOTS of loose threads discovered while unpacking the sheets. Honestly, I would expect something this thready to be sold at a discount.3.

the holes | question: what did they wish was different about the salt shaker?, context: So convenient because, being stack-able, they take up very little room. The only thing I wish was different is that the holes in the salt shaker are so very small, I wish they were a tiny bit bigger. It's hard to get the salt out. Still, the shakers look have a clean, sharp look to them. I frequently eat in front of the TV so I have them on a tray right by the sofa where they are convenient. I taste the food sitting there and don't have to go back to the kitchen if I find I need salt or pepper. This is probably a use most people don't care about, but that's what I use them for. | what did they wish was different about the salt shaker? | The only thing I wish was different is that the holes in the salt shaker are so very small, I wish they were a tiny bit bigger. | So convenient because, being stack-able, they take up very little room.

summer and spring | question: What season was the fan used?, context: I've owned the Lasko tower fan with remote control for nearly four years now. I use it every day in the summer and spring. I've never had to change the batteries in the remote in all that time, and it works as well now as it did on the first day of use. The base had to be installed on the fan when it was taken out of its box. My husband did that and said it wasn't hard. I've used all the various settings on the fan, including oscillation, and it works quietly on all settings. I've used it in both my home office and in my bedroom, and I ended up keeping it in my my bedroom because its 40-inch height allows the air it blows to easily reach a person lying on a bed. Also, if I get cold in the middle of the night, the fan's remote allows me to turn off the fan without having to get up.In spite of its height, the fan is light and easy to move. It has an indented hand-hold at its top which makes it easy to pick up the fan and move it from room to room or store it in the garage during the winter.Based on my experience with this fan, I would be happy to purchase another one just like it if the need ever arose. | What season was the fan used? | I use it every day in the summer and spring . | I've owned the Lasko tower fan with remote control for nearly four years now.

twice | question: How many times do they make coffee on Sunday?, context: I brew a two-cup thermal mug of coffee every day of the week and sometimes twice on Sunday, and so I use a #2 filter every day, or even more. These filters are pure white, leave no paper taste, hold up well (important when you're dumping grounds) and have a nifty little finger tab that makes the filter easy to open. The best news is that 800 of them will last me more than two years before I have to find #2 filters again. They're in sealed bags of 100, and each bag has its own "zipper" seal. Two years won't be a problem, and the price is right. | How many times do they make coffee on Sunday? | I brew a two-cup thermal mug of coffee every day of the week and sometimes twice on Sunday, and so I use a #2 filter every day, or even more. | I brew a two-cup thermal mug of coffee every day of the week and sometimes twice on Sunday, and so I use a #2 filter every day, or even more.

hands | question: What doesn't the reviewer have to use anymore to pick up diced vegetables?, context: 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.

successful | question: With things cleaned and in it's proper place what kind of experience will someone have?, context: I had been hesitant to get a pressure cooker for many reasons (safety being one of them and we have an electric stove and not gas), but after reading the reviews on this one I took the chance. Granted, like any device, you have to understand how it works and its "quirks", but once you learn, it is worth it.Now I can pressure cook with confidence and convenience. I've done pea soup in 15 minutes that turned out great. A pot roast in 50 minutes that was tender and tasty. Corn on the cob in 4 minutes, you get the idea.I highly suggest this pressure cooker, but realize you have to make sure the seal is clean, the pressure relief valve is in its proper position (parallel to the handle with it pointing to right while looking at the front of the cooker) and you will have a successful experience with this cooker. | With things cleaned and in it's proper place what kind of experience will someone have? | I highly suggest this pressure cooker, but realize you have to make sure the seal is clean, the pressure relief valve is in its proper position (parallel to the handle with it pointing to right while looking at the front of the cooker) and you will have a successful experience with this cooker. | I had been hesitant to get a pressure cooker for many reasons (safety being one of them and we have an electric stove and not gas), but after reading the reviews on this one I took the chance.

does not have the best circulation | question: What is wrong with the office, context: We have a small room converted to an office, on the second story of our house. The room does not have the best circulation, and in the middle of the summer (hot and humid days) it got really damp feeling in there.Based on a recommendation from a Home Depot associate, decided to give DampRid a try -- and have been very happy ever since. We put the container in the room, and about every few weeks or so we dump out more than a cup full of water down the drain. These refills do the same job that the original pack did, and the room feel and smells much better now.Guess we will have to figure out why the issue occurs (maybe need to replace the 13 year old windows seals?), but until then these do the job. | What is wrong with the office | The room does not have the best circulation , and in the middle of the summer (hot and humid days) it got really damp feeling in there. | We have a small room converted to an office, on the second story of our house.

really does a nice job | question: How is the scoop with getting ice cream?, context: I was so happy to finally find an ice cream scoop that doesn't break or bend awkwardly after only a few uses. This scoop is very sturdy with a big comfortable handle for those of us with big hands. I like the shape of the scoop itself, it's a little sharper and flatter and really does a nice job digging into the ice cream. Be careful though because this digging can lead to you puncturing the bottom or sides of the container. I would have given this 5 stars but after a month or so these little bumps began to form on the finish of the inside of the scoop. These bumps don't impact the function of the scoop, but they certainly don't look that great. | How is the scoop with getting ice cream? | I like the shape of the scoop itself, it's a little sharper and flatter and really does a nice job digging into the ice cream. | I was so happy to finally find an ice cream scoop that doesn't break or bend awkwardly after only a few uses.

A TERRIFIC BUY | question: What kind of a buy did the reviewer find the blanket to be?, context: I PURCHASED THIS LOVELY BLANKET FOR MY GUEST ROOM. IT ARRIVED AND I FOUND IT TO BE A TERRIFIC BUY!

bottom locking mechanism | question: What do you unlock when installing it?, context: So far so good. The Lift and Lock Pole Caddy took less than 2 minutes to be installed in our shower. One simply screws the needed pole pieces together, unlocks the bottom locking mechanism, slides the bottom pole up to the ceiling (you will hear clicks as its ratcheting mechanism locks on the way up). When it is firm against the ceiling and shower pan, then you press the locking mechanism down and you're done. Adding the trays is a snap. Just place them where you want and press down till you hear a click.So far we have some heavy shampoo and conditioner bottles on their own trays, razors, body wash, loofahs, etc on the trays and everything is just fine. Of course I wouldn't put overly heavy items on the trays, but they are sturdy. It also comes with a spare rubber piece that goes against the ceiling (that I nearly threw out as it was attached to some packaging inside the box with a bit of tape.)Some trays have large holes to place the bottle lids through when you need to turn your shampoo, conditioner, etc upside down and still keep them on the unit.Overall, it is a nice looking, solid unit that does exactly what it says and takes just a couple of minutes to set up. Ours is brushed nickel and it matches perfectly with the other brushed nickel pieces in the bathroom.I will update the review if the unit rusts, doesn't hold up, or has any other issues, but for now it is a very nice solution that takes up little space in the shower and I don't have to live with the rack that hangs from the shower head pipe that I don't care for. | What do you unlock when installing it? | One simply screws the needed pole pieces together, unlocks the bottom locking mechanism , slides the bottom pole up to the ceiling (you will hear clicks as its ratcheting mechanism locks on the way up). | So far so good.

quarter (or less) of the retail price | question: How much cheaper is it to make than retail?, context: This device does exactly what it advertises, at an extremely reasonable price. It's also very compact and easy to store, easy to clean, and narrow enough to reach into narrower bottles or cups. I tried a devoted frothing unit with pitcher and was disappointed, then chose this and have been extremely happy.Use this frother, along with a Bialetti stovetop espresso maker and your own skim milk, plus whatever other ingredients you like, and you have Starbucks for about a quarter (or less) of the retail price.For me, it's Illy Moka Normale coffee in the Bialetti, microwaved skim milk, one long shot of sugar-free Hershey's chocolate syrup, and a dollop of Starbucks peppermint syrup, then froth with the Aerolatte. Starbucks Peppermint Mocha at less than a dollar and 130 calories instead of 4.79 and 350 calories. | How much cheaper is it to make than retail? | Use this frother, along with a Bialetti stovetop espresso maker and your own skim milk, plus whatever other ingredients you like, and you have Starbucks for about a quarter (or less) of the retail price .For me, it's Illy Moka Normale coffee in the Bialetti, microwaved skim milk, one long shot of sugar-free Hershey's chocolate syrup, and a dollop of Starbucks peppermint syrup, then froth with the Aerolatte. | This device does exactly what it advertises, at an extremely reasonable price.

hung it on the side of the bookcase | question: How did they store the vacuum?, context: I've only had the vac for a day or so but tested it by using it on all carpets and hardwood floors in the house. Battery held up with plenty of charge...don't know how much longer it would go....and it cleaned both carpets and floors very well. I had used our central vac a week ago and I still filled the container twice. I then took the handle off and used it on the furniture and it picked up a lot of dust and lint. Being able to turn the brushes on and off is real plus. I hung it on the side of the bookcase in the family room...I liked it well enough to drill two small holes in the bookcase to mount it. So far I am very pleased with the machine. | How did they store the vacuum? | I hung it on the side of the bookcase in the family room... | I've only had the vac for a day or so but tested it by using it on all carpets and hardwood floors in the house.

negative reviews | question: What should I have listened to?, context: I should have listened to the negative reviews. I bought 2 of these; one was for my office and the other for my house. This tea ball is hideously cheap and I'm expecting it to snap apart any day now. The latch to close it seems dangerous. You can probably slice a piece of your finger off if you're not paying attention. The quality of the mesh seems cheap and I'm almost afraid it's some kind of cheap, dangerous metal and not something safe to be steeping in hot water. I should have taken the trip to Bed, Bath & Beyond to be able to check out other types of tea balls before getting this model. I won't argue about the fact that it's big. It fits a lot of tea leaves in it. But its quality is lacking and there are definitely better ones out there. | What should I have listened to? | I should have listened to the negative reviews . | I should have listened to the negative reviews.

solid and comfortable. | question: How does the author describe the handle of the Wusthof Ikon knives?, context: 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. | How does the author describe the handle of the Wusthof Ikon knives? | The handle is solid and comfortable.

diagonal | question: Which direction are they clipped?, context: Some sheet sets just refuse to stay on my bed. Maybe its friction, or a lack of it, but it seems every morning I'd wake up on bare mattress, and have to redo 2 or more corners of my fitted sheets. But I still like the sheets, and don't want to throw them away...So I ordered these clips. Very simple. You clip them on the diagonal across the corners of the underside of the mattress, and you forget about them until you change your sheets. The Clips hold tight, don't tear the fabric or the mattress, are easy enough to use, and save me from moving my darn mattress every day. Well worth the cost. | Which direction are they clipped? | You clip them on the diagonal across the corners of the underside of the mattress, and you forget about them until you change your sheets. | Some sheet sets just refuse to stay on my bed.

mini | question: How small is the canister vac?, context: I enjoy using this vacuum. I like that it comes with a separate canister vac instead of having on-board tools, as most current vacuums have. I have the freedoms to use the mini canister vac for quick kitchen, or to extend to my volume ceiling, without having to drag around the bulk of the big vac. Having the separate mini vac also makes the upright lighter than other uprights. The upright is very powerful. The only glitch I have is that the on/off button is at the top of the handle, close enough that I have on occasion managed to turn it off while manipulating around and under furniture. | How small is the canister vac? | I have the freedoms to use the mini canister vac for quick kitchen, or to extend to my volume ceiling, without having to drag around the bulk of the big vac. | I enjoy using this vacuum.

down | question: What does the duvet feel like?, context: I just ordered this with a cover two or three days ago and was not expecting them to arrive so quickly since I picked free shipping.I was pretty sure that king sized blankets/quilts/comforters would have significant overhang when used on a queen sized mattress and sitting under the duvet right now, I'm kind of disappointed. The king sized quilt I bought elsewhere has more overhang than this duvet.This duvet feels (to me) like down, just without the stabby feathers and it's heavy enough that I don't have to use more than one electric heater while sleeping this winter night (I'm a freeze baby, though). I washed it before stuffing it into the cover and it did not tear, nor does it have any outstanding defects after I scoured it over.I'm pretty happy with it, I just kind of wish it was a larger comforter. | What does the duvet feel like? | This duvet feels (to me) like down , just without the stabby feathers and it's heavy enough that I don't have to use more than one electric heater while sleeping this winter night (I'm a freeze baby, though). | I just ordered this with a cover two or three days ago and was not expecting them to arrive so quickly since I picked free shipping.I was pretty sure that king sized blankets/quilts/comforters would have significant overhang when used on a queen sized mattress and sitting under the duvet right now, I'm kind of disappointed.

four stars | question: What rating did the author give?, context: The OXO Good Grips Three Ring Trivet Set is a functional and well thought out update to trivets made of cork or plastics, but is not as much of an improvement to the traditional design as many other OXO products.I do like the nesting capability and the non-stick feet. Also, unlike cork trivets, the OXO trivets can be washed easily and frequently.Bottom line: the ability to clean the OXO trivets properly is very nice. So I'll go four stars, even though I did not think "why hasn't somebody come up with this before" as I often do with OXO Good Grips tools and gadgets. | What rating did the author give? | So I'll go four stars , even though I did not think "why hasn't somebody come up with this before" as I often do with OXO Good Grips tools and gadgets. | The OXO Good Grips Three Ring Trivet Set is a functional and well thought out update to trivets made of cork or plastics, but is not as much of an improvement to the traditional design as many other OXO products.I do like the nesting capability and the non-stick feet.

fabric wrap | question: What keeps the utensils from rolling around in the luggage?, context: I like to throw this in my suitcase for when I travel, together with a collapsible bowl and instant oatmeal. That way, I don't have to eat out all my meals when I'm on the road :)The bamboo utensils are super cute, and I liked the fabric wrap thing it came with as well, it's a nice touch and works well to keep the utensils from rolling around in your luggage.The knife is not super sharp (hey, it's made out of wood...!) but I cut a banana with it once and it worked. I don't think you can cut a loaf of bread or something with it, but spreading stuff on bread or cutting something softer, like baked fish, should be fine.I'm not sure I need all the spoons it came with but it's nice to be able to share with a friend, I guess :)So far I've only used it for traveling where I stayed over at hotels/hostels, but I'm sure it'll be equally useful for camping.Overall, I'm very pleased with the product, and I'd definitely purchase again! | What keeps the utensils from rolling around in the luggage? | The bamboo utensils are super cute, and I liked the fabric wrap thing it came with as well, it's a nice touch and works well to keep the utensils from rolling around in your luggage. | I like to throw this in my suitcase for when I travel, together with a collapsible bowl and instant oatmeal.

embroidered edge ON TOP | question: What feature did they find most impressive?, context: 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.

Baguette pan | question: What works wonderfully?, context: This Baguette pan, works wonderfully! I baked 6 hoagie rolls on it, at approximately 7 inches long, works like a charm, Beautiful coloring on the rolls, they are light and airy. I definately recommend this product as its functionality, ease of use/clean up, end product after baking, and the great production of hoagie rolls. I live at approximately 4600 ft in altitude and have been working on perfecting the perfect loaves of french bread, hoagies, white bread and artisian. I will definately continue utilizing this pan, and if you do, you will like it as much as I do.. just used water after the rolls baked, no soap.. it was perfect.. as the dough did not seep through the holes, and i did not use parchment paper at all.. | What works wonderfully? | This Baguette pan , works wonderfully! | This Baguette pan, works wonderfully!

Anything and I do mean anything can be cooked in this thing | question: What can be cooked with this dutch oven?, context: Oh the many things I love about this dutch oven........1. The lid is an ample sized frying pan (its like getting two iron skillets for the price of one)2. Anything and I do mean anything can be cooked in this thing3. It can go from stove top to oven to grill4. Great quality5. Inexpensive6. Heavy & durableTake the time to care for your iron. Its worth it and its really not a hassle at all. Mine are pretty seasoned by now but I still take a paper towel and wipe a thin layer of oil on both the lid and the base before cooking anything in it each time I use it (just to make sure nothing sticks). After cooking, I scrape & even sometimes use a little water (immediately dry) and then wipe with paper towel and thin layer of oil before putting it back in my cabinet. I did a lot of research and people complain a LOT about caring for cast iron. I dont find it to be difficult at all and in fact it requires less effort than cleaning my stainless steel pans. This is a bargain buy for sure! | What can be cooked with this dutch oven? | Anything and I do mean anything can be cooked in this thing 3. | Oh the many things I love about this dutch oven........1.

q-tip | question: what does the writer suggest using to clean the product?, context: First off - this is a semi-disposable item. The tank is extremely thin and cheaply made and I wonder how long it will last. The humidifier is easy to clean and has no 90 degree angles that are impossible to clean with a q-tip. I disinfect once a week with vinegar and otherwise replace the water in the tank daily. It's a little bit hard for my wife to align the tank properly when seating it in the base. My daughter loves the pink pig design and most importantly it does a great job of humidifying her room which is probably 14x14 or thereabouts. It's easy to change the amount of humidity. I put a little sticker on the dial so we could get the right amount each night.Update - broke after 3 months. The owl humidifier I got for my son's room made by a different manufacturer still works OK. | what does the writer suggest using to clean the product? | The humidifier is easy to clean and has no 90 degree angles that are impossible to clean with a q-tip . | First off - this is a semi-disposable item.

saves time | question: What does the smaller press save when using?, context: I have worked at a dry cleaners and have used the professional size steam press to press clothing and to steam block sweaters. The surface where the clothes lay on never gets too hot, unless the lower steamer is applied, which this produce does not have. I was surprised at the reviewer who expected the steamer to get too hot to handle?This smaller version of the dry-cleaners steam press works well. It saves time in pressing, but you need to know the techinques to position the shirts and pants so that you'll get nice creases. Steam comes from the upper lid of the presser. Steam does not come out from the pressing pad.In order to block sweaters, position the sweater so that it is flat and then lower the pressor lid to 'almost' touching the sweater and let the sweater steam a few seconds. You may want to spray a mist of water onto the sweater before steaming. Next, move sweater around and repeat until entire sweater has been steam blocked. | What does the smaller press save when using? | It saves time in pressing, but you need to know the techinques to position the shirts and pants so that you'll get nice creases. | I have worked at a dry cleaners and have used the professional size steam press to press clothing and to steam block sweaters.

food stick | question: The griddle also does a good job at preventing what?, context: I really like this griddle because I like the cooking space, BUT the griddle cooks unevenly. I'm not sure if this will go away over time. When making pancakes you can clearly see that parts of the pancake are cooking faster/better. It still cooks all the way through but I really wish it was more even. It heats to temperature quickly. The griddle does a good job of not letting food stick and I really like the tilt n' drain function. If it were not for the uneven heat I would definitely rate this at a 4 or 5 stars, but I really expected more for the overall review rating. | The griddle also does a good job at preventing what? | The griddle does a good job of not letting food stick and I really like the tilt n' drain function. | I really like this griddle because I like the cooking space, BUT the griddle cooks unevenly.

making the dough | question: What requires most of the effort when creating pasta?, context: I learned how to make pasta by hand a couple of years ago - and that included using a hand crank pasta machine bolted to my kitchen counter.Now that I've got this, I'm not going back!I decided that I had to really enjoy making pasta before investing in these attachments, but now that I have, it is SO much easier. Yes, most of the work of making pasta is in making the dough - and while these rollers obviously won't help with that - when it comes to rolling the dough out and cutting it, these make it much easier than with a crank machine. First off, you don't have to crank it. Yeah, it sounds obvious, but I was worried about the "uncontrolled" speed getting the best of me. Not to worry, if you can use a hand crank, you can use this - and you don't have to worry about it twisting on the counter! Second, it is pretty much at the perfect height - with plenty of room above the counter to maneuver. And finally, while I was worried about these being cheap and/or poorly made, they are (at least the ones I got!) solid and Italian-made.Frankly, I can't believe I waited as long as I did......... | What requires most of the effort when creating pasta? | Yes, most of the work of making pasta is in making the dough - and while these rollers obviously won't help with that - when it comes to rolling the dough out and cutting it, these make it much easier than with a crank machine. | I learned how to make pasta by hand a couple of years ago - and that included using a hand crank pasta machine bolted to my kitchen counter.Now that I've got this, I'm not going back!I decided that I had to really enjoy making pasta before investing in these attachments, but now that I have, it is SO much easier.

a propeller | question: What is the shape of the blades compared to?, context: I bought this unit mainly for grinding dry spices. I used to grind them in a mortar and pestle which usually takes about 10-15 minutes with pain and agony, and that didn't even do the job. With this grinder, I load the spices in...boom, boom and boom - literally 3 pushes, I got beautiful spices ground to fine powder in about 7 SECONDS! The amazing thing about this grinder is that it doesn't use sharp blades, it's more like a propeller and I like it because it's safe contact with my fingers when being cleaned.This is an incredible grinder at an unbeatable low price, I might as well buy another one to grind coffee beans (perhaps in black), I bought this model in white.Pros:*Light/Compact and does what it suppose to do*Acceptable noise level (not as loud as expected)*Stylish Design*Best Value/Price*Safe and sound, no sharp blades to deal with when cleaning.Cons:*Fine powder particles tend to stick to and under the propeller area which makes it a bit hard to clean (for this, I will buy a small brush to do the job).*Grind button from cap which connects to body device seems a bit flimsy, not sure how long this will hold up.*Power Cord is a bit short (apprx. 2 feet) | What is the shape of the blades compared to? | The amazing thing about this grinder is that it doesn't use sharp blades, it's more like a propeller and I like it because it's safe contact with my fingers when being cleaned. | I bought this unit mainly for grinding dry spices.

so I don't overeat | question: Keeping the serving sizes reasonable helps to what?, context: I cook large meals for just myself and these are the perfect size to make freezer meals I can take out to heat in the microwave for dinner. Sure beats eating expensive store bought food. Each is no more expensive than the cost of one Stouffer's meal. Knowing they are NOT leak-proof reminds me to keep them level till frozen then can be store any which way to keep till I need a meal. The larger area is probably a little bigger than I need for the meat portion, but the other two are sized for two vegetables and I can always put a few scoops of potato in the larger side if I desire. Also helps keep my portions to a reasonable size so I don't overeat ! ... a good buy in my opinion as the only way to save money when you cook for one is to be able to store what you can't eat in one day. | Keeping the serving sizes reasonable helps to what? | Also helps keep my portions to a reasonable size so I don't overeat ! | I cook large meals for just myself and these are the perfect size to make freezer meals I can take out to heat in the microwave for dinner.

has never gotten dull | question: Does the tool lose its edge easily?, context: I do not use the julienne tool but the peeler alone is worth the money. It is the best peeler I have ever used. It is very slightly serrated and has never gotten dull. If you've never used a horizontal blade, the vertical peeling motion can be off-putting at first but once you get used to it, you'll find the downward - instead of sideways - motion more natural, and the longer strokes will make you faster at peeling and the slight serrate on the blade makes every stroke stick. You can get into a fast rhythm instead of the peeler sliding off the veggie/fruit every couple of strokes with a flat-bladed peeler. | Does the tool lose its edge easily? | It is very slightly serrated and has never gotten dull . | I do not use the julienne tool but the peeler alone is worth the money.

pleased | question: how does the writer feel about the product overall?, context: This compact vacuum cleaner as several cool features to recommend it. First of all is the new canister. Unlike old cordless vacuums with messy canisters that always manage to get dirt on the floor, this one keeps the mess to a minimum with a button that pops the canister open at the bottom but does not require you to take it completely off. This feature allows you to empty it easier and with less mess. The retractable nozzle keeps you from storing attachments. While the weight is a touch heavy, the suction power is good and makes up for it. Overall, I am very pleased with this vacuum. | how does the writer feel about the product overall? | Overall, I am very pleased with this vacuum. | This compact vacuum cleaner as several cool features to recommend it.

eggs | question: In addition to meat, what breakfast food was cooked on the product?, context: I read the dimensions for this and I thought it would be perfect. It's my fault I want it to be a tad bigger, but I just do. Maybe just a half an inch or inch larger in either direction, and it would be perfect, but don't get me wrong this is a good little griddle. I've cooked steaks, pork chops, bacon and eggs, etc on this and it works very well. Yet, I brought this primarily for breakfast and it's hard to fit 3 thick slices of bacon and two eggs on there. I can make it work, but I don't have the egg shaper pictured in the advert. Who knows maybe I'll get that one day, but without it is hard to get everything on there without stuff running into each other. Again though, this is a great personal griddle that will fit in any cabinet and the price makes it worth it. I'll probably get a bigger one, but for now I'm satisfied with what I got. Just be sure you clearly understand that the dimensions of the grill are exactly what they say, so if you want something bigger then don't buy this grill. | In addition to meat, what breakfast food was cooked on the product? | I've cooked steaks, pork chops, bacon and eggs , etc on this and it works very well. | I read the dimensions for this and I thought it would be perfect.

"broil" | question: What caused the smoke detector to go off?, context: I've been using my Breville three months now and love it. I live alone so this is a perfect little oven for me! The only problem I had was my smoke detector kept going off when I used "broil" I learned to overcome this problem by using the lower rack instead of the suggested top rack. (you can always make adjustments with this oven)Pizza is great as I can set the oven for two small slices. What an improvement over using a microwave which totally deletes the taste of pizza.I also bake my own granola in my oven and much more.Kay | What caused the smoke detector to go off? | The only problem I had was my smoke detector kept going off when I used "broil" I learned to overcome this problem by using the lower rack instead of the suggested top rack. | I've been using my Breville three months now and love it.

mouth of a small jar | question: What does the product fit in?, context: Trying to get through baking with a single set of measuring spoons had become a pain in the neck. If I needed a teaspoon of something dry after measuring out a teaspoon of something liquid, I had to stop and dry the spoon before using. I decided I needed a second set of measuring spoons -- right up until these spoons arrived. Now I don't use my original set because these offer a "dry" and a "wet" spoon for each measurement. Furthermore, the dry spoons are superior to my old set because they are specifically designed to fit the mouth of a small jar, which my old round spoons often failed to accomplish.The magnetic attachment of the spoons is a nice touch, too, although I'm sometimes bemused to find one of the spoons stuck on another utensil. | What does the product fit in? | Furthermore, the dry spoons are superior to my old set because they are specifically designed to fit the mouth of a small jar , which my old round spoons often failed to accomplish. | Trying to get through baking with a single set of measuring spoons had become a pain in the neck.

6 hrs | question: How long did the second batch take?, context: I got this yogurt maker due to price and simplicity. Fewer features also means less can get broken. And really how hard is it to set a phone timer? The first batch I made I accidentally followed the instructions for thinner yogurt and left it a bit too long (forgot to set the timer haha). The result was a slightly tart DAnimals thick yogurt. I added some honey and vanilla and my 3 year old son and I played around with various colors and it was yummy! Drinkable yogurt is annoyingly expensive and my son usually doesn't like the taste. He downed 4 whole cups of this stuff so I still count this as a not fail. Plus he loved being able to color it himself. My second batch only took 6 hrs and I actually followed the right instructions. Oh and I did let the yogurt I used for starter warm up to room temperature. I may have over boiled the milk by a bit, but it still came out beautiful! Very thick, very rich and simple plain yogurt! I started it at 9pm and pulled it out at 3am when the baby woke up and by morning had some delicious yogurt to look forward to! Opened up one of the cups, dug my spoon in and it was very creamy, super thick and mellow. I used about a quart of whole milk and 1 jar cheap GV vanilla yogurt for starter and about 4 tablespoons of milk powder. I have started on my third of many more batches to come! Very pleased with how simple it is! | How long did the second batch take? | My second batch only took 6 hrs and I actually followed the right instructions. | I got this yogurt maker due to price and simplicity. Fewer features also means less can get broken. And really how hard is it to set a phone timer? The first batch I made I accidentally followed the instructions for thinner yogurt and left it a bit too long (forgot to set the timer haha). The result was a slightly tart DAnimals thick yogurt. I added some honey and vanilla and my 3 year old son and I played around with various colors and it was yummy! Drinkable yogurt is annoyingly expensive and my son usually doesn't like the taste. He downed 4 whole cups of this stuff so I still count this as a not fail. Plus he loved being able to color it himself. My second batch only took 6 hrs and I actually followed the right instructions.

one | question: How many stars were docked?, context: This is a very nice bamboo kitchen utensil set. The only complaint I have about the quality is that there is some roughness to the surface area of the utensils, and I almost gave myself a splinter when handling the cylinder, so I will dock it one star only, for lack of craftsmanship. But other than that, this is a very functional bamboo set. | How many stars were docked? | The only complaint I have about the quality is that there is some roughness to the surface area of the utensils, and I almost gave myself a splinter when handling the cylinder, so I will dock it one star only, for lack of craftsmanship. | This is a very nice bamboo kitchen utensil set.

rarely fall off | question: do towels stay on the hooks?, context: These are really good hooks, but not nearly as strong as the original suction hooks that came out years ago. That being said, the bathroom in our new house has nowhere to hang towels near the shower door since the entire enclosure is glass. We have four of these stuck directly to the shower glass and they hold wet towels easily and rarely fall off. You have to be sure to affirmatively engage the suction cup directly to the surface before you lock the hook down. I am pleased enough with these because it's hard to find a clear plastic suction hook that actually sticks and these have been better than any others I have found. | do towels stay on the hooks? | We have four of these stuck directly to the shower glass and they hold wet towels easily and rarely fall off . | These are really good hooks, but not nearly as strong as the original suction hooks that came out years ago.

keep silverware looking brand new | question: What items can be stored in it?, context: I think I got this for a great price given the quality of the product.

steel modular unit | question: what does the authors closet have, context: My closet has a steel modular unit that has shelves. These shelves had an amazing way of collecting piles of clothes, hats and flip-flops. Well collect no more, little shelves, I bought these great little baskets. I was able to neatly fold clothes and then place into them into the baskets. They slide easily out so I can retrieve my items. I ordered 2 sets of 6, which was surprisingly shipped (with my Prime membership) in ONE day instead of the FREE 2 day....what a bonus!I have these baskets in other sizes and have had them for years. They are the only brand of basket that actually stands up to years of abuse and use. | what does the authors closet have | My closet has a steel modular unit that has shelves. | My closet has a steel modular unit that has shelves.

clunky on the steps | question: Can you use the vacuum on the steps?, context: I love my Dyson. It's easy to empty and does a great job on the dog hair. You can see when the canister gets full. The only thing I don't really like is the way the tool attachments work. There is a pull out tube is used with the attachments (there are all the standard extras). It's kind of difficult to extend the hose although you can completely remove the long metal tube and use it without that. It can be a little clunky on the steps but the ease on the rest of the floor more than makes up for it. | Can you use the vacuum on the steps? | It can be a little clunky on the steps but the ease on the rest of the floor more than makes up for it. | I love my Dyson.

harmful chemicals | question: What is the user happy that the pan does not have?, context: I received this pan for FREE is exchange for my honest review. I have owned this pan for 1 week. I first seasoned the pan with a small amount of oil like the instructions stated. I have cooked eggs, pancakes and pan-fried a small fillet of fish on this pan since then. Everything slides right off. After the pan cools I wash it with warm, soapy water then towel dry. I have had no issues with the pan and I think that if you follow the instructions it came with it will last a very long time. Because the pan is free of a lot of harmful chemicals I think it is a great buy. | What is the user happy that the pan does not have? | Because the pan is free of a lot of harmful chemicals I think it is a great buy. | I received this pan for FREE is exchange for my honest review.

loud | question: What was wrong with it?, context: Very pleased. I did a lot of research before buying a new juicer. I had been using a Juiceman Jr. It worked well and was durable, but it was sooooo loud. This is very quiet, small hum from the motor, and the actual sound of the vegetables being ground/squeezed. That's about it. Pulp comes out quite dry and is easy to feed through a second time if you want every last drop of juice out of it.Clean-up is much easier than I expected. I just fill a sink with warm soapy water while I'm juicing. When done, before drinking the juice, I disassemble the juicer (very easy to do), and place the parts into the water, letting them soak while I enjoy the juice. When done drinking, I rinse the parts under running water - usually that's all it takes. Occasionally the juice or pulp catcher will need a gentle rub with a cloth or scotch pad, usually not. The only part that takes any effort at all is the actual screen, but it is very small, so quite quick. I just use the scotch pad on it, inside and out, then rinse, takes about 30 seconds on a bad day. | What was wrong with it? | It worked well and was durable, but it was sooooo loud . | Very pleased.

Multi-functional and agile, not clumsy like regular larger tongs. | question: How does this product differ from regular tongs?, context: If you've used the longer cooking chopsticks before these have a similar feel. They're metal with a heavy silicon coating. Multi-functional and agile, not clumsy like regular larger tongs. I tend to hold these with a more chopstick-like grip when working with delicate items as it provides more control and precision, such as stuffed mushrooms. These are grill worthy but seem like they might have trouble with heavier items like large chicken breasts, though I have not done a test of this. I find myself using these often for things such as stir-frying, serving noodles, handling scallops, and even chicken nuggets. I recommend these to everyone looking for silicon tongs when precision is important, build and material quality are excellent.I will update when I have used these for heavier items. | How does this product differ from regular tongs? | Multi-functional and agile, not clumsy like regular larger tongs.

"build it yourself | question: What did the zenith require?, context: If you are deciding between Zenith etagere brand or Elegant home etagere products , I suggest you should choose Elegant home. I bought one of each item intended for two different bathrooms and after buying both products, here is my list of observations that lead to the following opinion: The Zenith was not exactly like you are buying a ready to use etagere with minor assembly required. Its really like you received a "build it yourself project kit" with lots and lots of bitty pieces to assemble You can expect to spend many hours to build your own etagere cabinet. As I painfully turned the many tiny screws by hand into the wood to affix the hinges my wrist became sore Then the cheap porous chipboard wouldnt support the weight of the door and it crumbled into powder. The Elegant home was great. It was partially preassembled with hinges already attached and easy turn cam bolts which can disaasemble or reassemble without damage if you make a mistake You get what you pay for because the price isn't the same. | What did the zenith require? | Its really like you received a "build it yourself project kit" with lots and lots of bitty pieces to assemble You can expect to spend many hours to build your own etagere cabinet. | If you are deciding between Zenith etagere brand or Elegant home etagere products , I suggest you should choose Elegant home.

use your regular vac | question: Does the author recommend the item?, context: Normally I like Eureka products but this one SUCKS - and I don't mean that in a good way. As for suction - there isn't any. At least not enough to pick up anything more than a hair or a miniscule crumb. If that! What a waste of money. I'd have sent it back but the shipping fee & my time and trouble (not to mention gas to go to the post office) were not worth the effort. My kids love playing with it - they think they are vacuuming with the real thing, like Mommy. My advice - use your regular vac (even tho it may be a pain to drag out) or a mop. | Does the author recommend the item? | My advice - use your regular vac (even tho it may be a pain to drag out) or a mop. | Normally I like Eureka products but this one SUCKS - and I don't mean that in a good way.

satisfied with it for the price | question: How did the author feel about a previous bacon cooker?, context: I had this bacon cooker in the past and was satisfied with it for the price. It's much more convenient than the ones on which you have to put each slice vertically in a slat. The fat does drip off adequately; and it is dishwasher friendly, if you wipe it with a paper towel first. As with all microwave bacon cookers, the fat does pop and splatter through the microwave, but you have to leave it uncovered for maximum crispness. It cooks and cleans well. After a while, it seems to lose its finish, turn brown, as if burned, and then does not clean as well or cook as evenly. I had the last one for 5 years and make bacon a couple of times a month, even if only a slice to crumble on a salad. It didn't get heavy use, but certainly I feel that I got my money's worth. The bacon cooks, crisps, browns and stays flat nicely. You can squeeze about 7-8 slices on it. I'd recommend it, and obviously would buy it again. | How did the author feel about a previous bacon cooker? | I had this bacon cooker in the past and was satisfied with it for the price . | I had this bacon cooker in the past and was satisfied with it for the price.

4.5 | question: How many stars does the reviewer rate the product?e, context: My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior, providing both utility and comfort. My only criticism is that in the rare circumstance when I'm holding something VERY hot (e.g. a tray fresh from a stove on 400F+) for 15+seconds my hands will start to get hot. This is a situation I almost never run into, so, if I could, I'd give this product 4.5 stars.Recommended! | How many stars does the reviewer rate the product?e | This is a situation I almost never run into, so, if I could, I'd give this product 4.5 stars. | My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior, providing both utility and comfort.

hold the handle behind you as you walk | question: How can you make it seem weightless?, context: 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.. | How can you make it seem weightless? | Just hold the handle behind you as you walk and it seems weightless. | Just saw a similar cart on QVC this morning for $33 including S&H and tax.

a much cheaper one | question: What did this one replace?, context: I replaced a much cheaper one that had lasted me five years, but that was sagging and nearly toppling over-- plus the zipper had broken. I love this one, even without the cover that I'm still waiting for. Very sturdy, and though less wide than my old one, actually a much better use of space: I have room under it, because of the wheels, to put shoes in, and because it is metal, the bottom shelf is usable which it wasn't on the old one (had been just cardboard). On one side, I have dresses, and on the other, blazers. Under the blazers, I have my laundry basket, and under my dresses, there's still room on the bottom shelf for other folded up clothes. The rack is sturdy enough that I could store things on the top if I wanted, as well, but I'm not doing so for aesthetics... I'll let you know how the cover works out. | What did this one replace? | I replaced a much cheaper one that had lasted me five years, but that was sagging and nearly toppling over-- plus the zipper had broken. | I replaced a much cheaper one that had lasted me five years, but that was sagging and nearly toppling over-- plus the zipper had broken.

Eye, skin and respiratory | question: Melamine can cause irritation to what parts of the body?, context: I looked up Melamine and found this warning:"Melamine is described as being "Harmful if swallowed, inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Chronic exposure may cause cancer or reproductive damage. Eye, skin and respiratory irritant." However, the short-term lethal dose is on a par with common table salt with an LD50 of more than 3 grams per kilogram of bodyweight.[15] U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) scientists explained that when melamine and cyanuric acid are absorbed into the bloodstream, they concentrate and interact in the urine-filled renal tubules, then crystallize and form large numbers of round, yellow crystals, which in turn block and damage the renal cells that line the tubes, causing the kidneys to malfunction.[16]"Why would anyone want to eat off this toxic crap or put it in their dishwasher? | Melamine can cause irritation to what parts of the body? | Eye, skin and respiratory irritant."

cooler | question: how does the writer describe the look of the ice cubes produced by the tray?, context: I've been using these trays for about 3 months so far and have not noticed any chemical odor on the tray or the ice cubes. The cubes do have to be pushed out of the tray one by one, and placing the filled trays into the freezer can be challenging if you don't put a small baking sheet or Tupperware lid under them.That being said, even though I have a ice maker with ice through the door, I still use these trays because the cubes look cooler, and more importantly, they last significantly longer than my ice makers "cubes" (more like wedges). If you're willing to spend some time getting them into the freezer and out of the trays then these are well worth what you pay. | how does the writer describe the look of the ice cubes produced by the tray? | That being said, even though I have a ice maker with ice through the door, I still use these trays because the cubes look cooler , and more importantly, they last significantly longer than my ice makers "cubes" (more like wedges). | I've been using these trays for about 3 months so far and have not noticed any chemical odor on the tray or the ice cubes.

ginger | question: What type of drink is made with the cheesecloth?, context: I bought cheesecloth from two different vendors to see which I preferred. Both are identical and work well. I use it for draining the whey from yogurt, to be used for fermenting. I make kvass, sauerkraut, ginger drink, and pickles, fermenting with whey. It is so easy to do and is ready in a few days. The stuff is just like my father-in-law used to make in the old country, as least my husband says.I wash the cheesecloth in the sink with dish soap and rinse it well. The yogurt residue washes out easily. And then I hang it over the oven handle to dry. Use again and again. | What type of drink is made with the cheesecloth? | I make kvass, sauerkraut, ginger drink, and pickles, fermenting with whey. | I bought cheesecloth from two different vendors to see which I preferred.

nano-brownies and micro-spaniards | question: What were they looking forward to baking?, context: I'm an inveterate amateur baker, so I was thrilled to find these, and looking forward to making batches of nano-brownies and micro-spaniards. Unfortunately, while this mold may be suitable for cold-molding, I can't consider it suitable for baking.Upon opening the plastic package, I noted a sickly-sweet chemical smell. After washing the molds by hand, and then in the dishwasher, the smell was much stronger, to the point of being offensive (I used the sanitize cycle, which does heat stuff up).After airing out overnite, the smell had faded, so I decided to test to see if would transfer to food baked in the molds - I mixed egg whites with an equivalent amount of milk (an extremely scent-neutral mixture), and baked it in the molds at 350 for 20 minutes (I should have done that for only ten, to avoid any Maillard reaction). I also sprayed half the mold with cooking spray and left half ungreased, to see if this would make a difference.After baking, the smell (and taste) was very noticeable in the custards from the greased half of the mold, and slightly noticeable in the souffles from the ungreased half.I'm one of those people who is very sensitive to odors and odd chemistry, so YMMV. But I will not be using these in my kitchen. | What were they looking forward to baking? | I'm an inveterate amateur baker, so I was thrilled to find these, and looking forward to making batches of nano-brownies and micro-spaniards . | I'm an inveterate amateur baker, so I was thrilled to find these, and looking forward to making batches of nano-brownies and micro-spaniards.

amazon | question: What retailer did the person get the product from?, context: Our old waffle maker is "top of the line" (read expensive) but never really worked very well, plus it was always a mess with spillover, etc. Got this one for xmas and it was damaged, but amazon return was super easy. Got the 2nd one and it works great. Hot, hot, hot - so watch your fingers! Waffles are quick and browning is adjustable so you can get the color you like. We like our waffles kind of crunchy - so sometimes we put them in the toaster oven for some extra crisping. No nasty smell like some reported, so that was nice too. | What retailer did the person get the product from? | Got this one for xmas and it was damaged, but amazon return was super easy. | Our old waffle maker is "top of the line" (read expensive) but never really worked very well, plus it was always a mess with spillover, etc. Got this one for xmas and it was damaged, but amazon return was super easy.

No nasty smell like some reported, so that was nice too. | Our old waffle maker is "top of the line" (read expensive) but never really worked very well, plus it was always a mess with spillover, etc. <hl> Got this one for xmas and it was damaged, but amazon return was super easy. <hl> Got the 2nd one and it works great.

double-wide mobile home, | question: What type of home does the customer live in?, context: 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. | What type of home does the customer live in? | We live in a double-wide mobile home, so we have a small tub enclosure, and the 72" length fits perfectly. | This is a nice, heavy (yet pliant) vinyl shower curtain that should last a few years with a little care.

top leg half | question: What did they install afterwards?, context: These shelves are about average for this type of shelves. They may be just a bit harder than some to get the top leg halves installed. End of review (for the review police). What worked for me was to install the two bottom shelves, including the boards, being careful to seat the side and end rail rivets securely in the slots using a 12" 2x4 or mallet. Then install the mid-point shelf brackets in the top hole for each leg and go ahead and add the board. Then you can slip the top leg half in by tilting the top end inwards and sliding onto the top rivet then straightening. Makes it much easier. | What did they install afterwards? | Then you can slip the top leg half in by tilting the top end inwards and sliding onto the top rivet then straightening. | These shelves are about average for this type of shelves.

Rowenta | question: What brand makes this iron?, context: I actually like to iron and own the Rowenta Professional iron. I have used it a half dozen times and it is useless. The iron doesn't heat - not even on the cotton linen setting.As per Rowenta, inorder to have it serviced I would pack it up and send it to a service center, and pay for shipping and repair which is more than the cost of a replacement iron.It is not under warrantee as it was in storage - unused - and was purchased last summer, so it is over a year old.I have had irons last many years and they keep steaming along. This one is a disappointment. | What brand makes this iron? | I actually like to iron and own the Rowenta Professional iron. | I actually like to iron and own the Rowenta Professional iron.

funnel | question: What is essential when buying things in bulk at health food stores?, context: This is one of those essentials items I use often. I've tried to list all the things I use it for here--a lot more than you'd think. Of course I use it to fill my Ball jars even though I am more likely freezing the contents than canning them. The good thing about this gadget is that it not only keeps the rim clean for sealing but when the contents reach the bottom of the funnel when placed in my wide mouth jars, I know to stop filling so I have room for expansion when freezing something.I also keep another one of these in my birdfeed container because one of my feeders is a narrow tube that used to take very careful filling and still I spilled much seed. With this funnel the filling is fast and easy.In the kitchen, I put lots of things in Ball jars for storage like rice, grits, rolled oats, powdered sugar, baking soda, popcorn, chocolate bits, seeds and nuts. They stay fresh and secure this way. Filling the jars is easy and efficient with this funnel. No spillage. I make my own salad dressing and mayonnaise and put those in the half pint jars, and use both the pint and quart jars for other things. I may squeeze a dozen grapefruits using the attachment on my food processor or use a juicer attachment for grape juice. The food processor bowl doesn't have a pour spout so transferring the juice to a jar requires help from this funnel. Even pouring sugar into a measuring cup can be messy business if a lump gets in the way, so I put the funnel in the mouth of the cup first.One thing the funnel is absolutely essential for is when I buy things in bulk at the health food store. Getting whatever from those flimsy plastic bags into a jar is a real challenge.I keep one of these funnels in the garage for filling the gas tank on my tractor and my leaf vacuum. Holding those big heavy containers just right to get the nozzle in the tank often alludes me. The funnel helps me get started without spillage. Another thing I use the funnel for is getting the dirt in small pots for starting seeds early in the spring. I do that inside and really don't want the soil spilled around.All in all I've found so many uses for this funnel, I've ended up with several. It's a very useful tool. | What is essential when buying things in bulk at health food stores? | The good thing about this gadget is that it not only keeps the rim clean for sealing but when the contents reach the bottom of the funnel when placed in my wide mouth jars, I know to stop filling so I have room for expansion when freezing something. | This is one of those essentials items I use often.

Dish Network 722 | question: What's on the second shelf?, context: First of all, this thing is freakin' awesome. My wife put it together while I did some work, she assembled all the glass shelves in to the frame. We hung it up with 6 BIG 4" wall toggle bolts. On the top shelf I house an external WD Hdd, a WDTV Live and a Actiontec HDMI WiFi Transmitter. On the second shelf I have my Dish Network 722 (fits perfectly even with all the wires coming out the back). On the bottom shelf I have an old Ken wood Stereo Receive (fits, but the front legs come off just a bit but this doesn't affect stability. The receiver measures 17"w x 14"d x 5"h.The wire maintenance was a little trick. We used a wire coat hanger and some masking tape to thread the bulky wires through the back.This unit installed is an amazing addition to your small living space, I highly recommend it! | What's on the second shelf? | On the second shelf I have my Dish Network 722 (fits perfectly even with all the wires coming out the back). | First of all, this thing is freakin' awesome.

deep stain | question: What setting had not been tried out yet?, context: New off-white carpeting and a sick cat do not make good combos. Tired of hand scrubbing the carpet w/mixed results we opted to try the SpotBot. We are *thrilled* with it.Solidly made product. Easy to set-up. Simple to use. Fortunately have not had to use the deep stain setting - but the 3 minute cycle setting cleaned up all the messes in said time. The set it and forget it way is great when you have other things to do and the beeping upon completion won't allow really forget it.There is also the more manual process w/a hose for stains that don't fit into the circumference of the auto-brushes. That worked well too.Why only 4 stars? I don't have longevity w/the product - and hopefully it won't be used daily, but so far so good. | What setting had not been tried out yet? | Fortunately have not had to use the deep stain setting - but the 3 minute cycle setting cleaned up all the messes in said time. | New off-white carpeting and a sick cat do not make good combos.

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

Or like my other can; having to remove the inside can and specially secure the bag though a hole. This one just uses that top lip to hold the bag and it is easy and fast. I like it's rear wheels, which make it easy to pull in and out of my little place it have for it to sit. The maker has designed this one to do the job without having to deal with a lot of other stuff. | 5dd4d6f3cc027a086d65fd9f |
my sister's | question: Whose coffee machine did the reviewer try before buying this one?, context: I bought the Dolce Gusto Piccolo after using my sister's when staying at her house. I already had a Keurig so it is difficult not to compare the two. I do infact like them both.Here are my key points:1) Purchased the Piccolo model due to price. I wanted to stay as far under $100 as possible to get a Dolce Gusto.2) Now that I've used it, I probably would rather have the Genio model because it is a less-manual process.3) You have to fill the water container each time you use it. It doesn't store water the way my Keurig does.4) Really like the frothy, coffee-house textured drinks. My Keurig does not do this.5) The Dolce Gusto website offers a reward program too. Each box of capsules contains a code in the box. Enter the codes online and store your points until you have enough for free product. That's great! | Whose coffee machine did the reviewer try before buying this one? | I bought the Dolce Gusto Piccolo after using my sister's when staying at her house. | I bought the Dolce Gusto Piccolo after using my sister's when staying at her house.

3 and a half hours | question: How long did the recipe take?, context: Ten stars would not be enough praise for this cooking pot. I have had a lot of cookware. Expensive no stick that was absolutely useless. This is amazing. I wasn't sure about seasoning this pan but I asked here on Amazon and Pam said she just sprayed with a little Pam. She was right. I seared a pot roast, removed it ,deglazed with wine,softened some onions and garlic put it back in with some mushroom soup and put the lid on. The recipe was for 3 and a half hours. The roast (lid on) took a little over 2 hours and was fork tender. Cleaning was as simple as a sponge with a little Dawn. Wow. I've never had a pot that cleans this easily and cooks this fast. I will get the 5 1/2 qt next month and I'm looking at the saucier pan. I love the colors. This will never go in the dishwasher. I will always hand wash this which is not my usual move.(nails and all). It's a cooking pot of a lifetime and a gift of quality. | How long did the recipe take? | The recipe was for 3 and a half hours . | Ten stars would not be enough praise for this cooking pot.
