OvenStuff Non-Stick Personal Size Cookie Pan

CUSTOMER REVIEW



Be aware that this pan is larger than described. The actual dimensions are 7" by 10", the cooking surface appears to be approximately 6.5" x 8.5". It appears to be be good quality. I was never able to use it because it was too large for my toaster oven.

Bounty Select-A-Size Paper Towels, Huge Rolls, White, 12 Count

CUSTOMER REVIEW



What a pleasure it is not to have to go to the store and shelp home 12 rolls of bounty select a size!

These paper towels work well. But I have to agree with others who think they have been making them thinner this year ( either that or my expectations are getting higher with age...yikes!! :-#



I buy these on Amazon's Subscribe and save (15% odd when you subscribe to 5 items) and often there is a coupon. This is a very good deal.

Lodge L10SK3ASHH41B Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Skillet with Red Silicone Hot Handle Holder, 12-inch

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I own several Lodge cast iron products and use them everyday. I have 3 teeneage boys that enjoy cooking, and after they destroyed a few teflon coated pans, I decided I would go heavy into cast iron. These pans are indestructible. You can use them in the oven or stovetop, and if you keep it seasoned properly food will not stick. Also, to avoid sticking problems, you may want to remember to allow the pan to get hot before applying oil or food.

As to seasoning, the Logic line now comes preseasoned. But don't make a big deal about this. To season a cast iron skillet simply coat it lightly with oil and bake it for a half hour or so. I have also seasoned these skillets on the stovetop. Cast iron is also great because it does not easily scrap like stainless steel and aluminum pots. Aluminum pans are painful to me, as my teeth fillings react to the aluminum. With cast iron, you won't have this problem. I also take my Lodge pan camping and set it right over the coals to cook. No melted handles or scorched bottoms to mess with.

Nubee® FDA Approved Non-contact Infrared (IR) Thermometer (-58F to 932F) w/ Laser Sight MAX Display and Emissivity Adjustable

CUSTOMER REVIEW



Unlike some other reviewers who make candles/soap or work with lead, I don't have a recurring use case for needing a accurate, non-contact temperature readings.



Which doesn't mean this isn't great fun, and potentially very useful.



Here are some remotely measured temperature values (all Fahrenheit from around the house):



Freezer compartment (kitchen refrigerator/freezer): -10.3 degrees

Freezer compartment (garage refrigerator/freezer): 2.0 degrees

Refrigerator compartment (kitchen refrigerator/freezer): 38.8 degrees

Refrigerator compartment (garage refrigerator/freezer): 43.3 degrees

Dog's back (short hair, indoors): 88.1 degrees

Dog's belly (exposed skin): 92.3 degrees

Own cheek (interior): 98.4 degrees

Own skin (forearm): 91.2 degrees

Grass at dusk (ambient air temp: 77 degrees): 64 degrees

Asphalt driveway at dusk (after daytime high of 83 degrees): 78 degrees

No wonder the cat sleeps on the driveway.



All of these temperatures are where I would expect them to fall, and so I'm confident of the claimed "plus/minus 2 degrees (C) accuracy.



Unit ships with a 9V battery and a decent user guide.

CUSTOMER REVIEW



This is my second order for the S&S Sparkle paper towels. My first order came last month and had 144 sheets per roll and seeing as it is still labeled as "giant roll" I expected the same thing this time. Not so much. This time each roll looked smaller so I checked the label, which you couldn't see on line when I ordered it again. Now there are only 107 sheets per roll! That's quite a cut in product for the same price per roll, which in S&S is 92 cents each. Not very happy about that. I think it should have been clear on the product description that the manufacturer had cut back.

UPDATE: I see now under the product it does say 107 sheets per roll. I do not believe that was all there when I ordered them.

Brita 3 Count Water Filter Pitcher Replacement Filters (Packaging May Vary)

CUSTOMER REVIEW



We always kept two boxes of these on hand as replacements when we used our Brita filter pitcher (we went to an in-line because we drink so much filtered water --we'd go through 40 gallons in no time, but that is a LOT of water.) There are three "gotcha's" on these filters to be aware of:

1. Do not let the filter dry out. When the pitcher is empty, you should refill the reservoir right away. When the pitcher is full or partly full, the bottom of the filter is in the water and keeping moist.

2. The filter needs to be soaked and flushed exactly according to directions. Some of the charcoal packing comes off in the flushing process, and if you don't take care of it, you will have specks in the water. This is no big problem, just something to be aware of.

3. Never put overly warm or hot water through the filter.

If you follow the directions, you will have, as we did, gallons of water that cost a lot less and taste as good or better than the water you buy in plastic containers in the supermarket.

I ended up buying it from shopko.com since Amazon did not have it in stock. The item that I ordered (and received) is the exact part number that was reviewed by Cook's Illustrated.



All I can say is that Cook's was right. This pan has amazing non-stick properties. I've been using the pan for several months now on a daily basis (I'm on a carb-restricted diet, so I eat fried eggs for breakfast every morning) and the non-stick properties of this pan are simply amazing. No sticking. Clean-up is a breeze. I'm VERY satisfied with this pan and will not hesitate to purchase another when this one wears out (hey, nothing lasts forever).

Medelco 12-Cup Glass Stovetop Whistling Kettle

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I purchased this glass tea kettle for use with my Bodum Chambord 12-cup coffee press. Although I am not a "coffee snob" I do like a very good cup of coffee, and the best coffee (and tea) is made in glass because there is no chance of tainting your coffee with metallic substances or Teflon.



This kettle is easy to use and easy to clean (you can even put it in the dishwasher if you like). It comes with a heat diffuser for use on electric ranges, but I suggest using it even for glasstop ranges as well. The whistle works well, but is a little more throaty than the high-pitch whistle on your standard metal tea-kettle. I use a probe thermometer and place it in the whistle hole, and let the water get between 200-205 degrees Fahrenheit - which is the proper brewing temperature for the best cup of coffee.



The kettle has a clean, retro design and is very well-constructed. Some reviewers have noted that the handle heats-up. I believe this is most likely because they are using the "big burner" on their stove and not the smaller one that is the proper size for the tea kettle (thus the handle is over the outside of the burner and causes it to heat-up). So just make sure to use the smaller, more appropriate-sized burner to prevent over-heating the handle. Regardless, the handle is pretty strong, and the entire kettle is solidly-built. The kettle is made in Germany, according to the documentation that comes with it (though the company is based in the USA).



I use glass almost exclusively for all of my cooking (like Corning Visions pots and pans, this Kettle, and so on) and if I can offer some suggestions to make sure your glass cookware (like this kettle) last you a lifetime, make sure that the outside is clean and dry when you place it on the burner, and turn the burner on low temperature for a few minutes and then turn it to medium to heat-up. Gently easing-up the temperature like that allows the glass to expand slowly and prevents cracking (which happens when you heat fast - though only rarely). Another tip I mentioned earlier - always use the heat diffuser! You probably won't need it for gas ranges, but for electric and glass-top ranges, use it to be on the safe side. When you take the pot off of the hot burner - DON'T place it on a cold burner or on the counter - this causes the glass to contract quickly and could possibly cause it to crack eventually. Instead, place it on a folded, dry towel or on a pot holder or two. Let id cool before you rinse it or clean it.



All-in-all, this kettle is an EXCELLENT buy! The level of quality of craftsmanship is superb and for the price - it's unbelievable!

Lodge ASHH41 Silicone Hot Handle Holder, Red

CUSTOMER REVIEW



EDIT: Now that I have about a month using these holders under my belt, I've learned more how to use them better. Still, my original review below pretty much stands. So, I found that trying to firmly grasp the silicone handles the way you would using a cloth isn't the best way to go about using these handles. Using a looser grip allowing the front bottom of the holder to sit on your index finger and the rear top of the holder to press up against your palm provides a much better grip and control of the pan. It's a looser bottom-front and top-rear balance that works best. This method even mostly negates the lubrication effect from modestly oily pan handles. You still don't want oily handles or you're asking for it. So try that looser balancing grip instead of the firm clench grip. :)



Also, a note on the cloth Hot Handles that are supposedly-silicone lined. Um, they're not silicone-lined. At least not with any kind of silicone I've ever seen. And don't ask me why, but the multi-colored hot pepper design holder is a bit bigger and its interior just looks like the metalized cloth we've been using on the contact surface of cloth oven mitts for decades. The red hot pepper design has a cream colored teri cloth inside and is just a bit smaller than the multi-colored pepper holders. I like the multi-colored pepper holders the best both for the interior, feel and pattern.



If I'm cooking on low heat I leave the silicone handles on. If I'm sauteeing, and therefore flipping, or if I'm using higher heat I use the cloth handles and put 'em on as needed and remove 'em when done.



ORIGINAL REVIEW:



Okay, I will take for granted that if you're reading this you already have a Lodge cast iron pan(s). They are fantastic pans that have reignited my love of cooking. My Analon Pro pans sit in the cupboard doing nothing now other than loan their great glass lids to the Lodge pans.



But this isn't about the pans. Despite their very humble price, all of us who own Lodge know that they are superior pans already. This is about this handle holder. If you've used silicone in the past as a pot holder or oven mitt, you know that it is an excellent heat barrier and very very easy to clean and dries almost instantly. This holder is no different. It can be left on the pans even when they are on medium high heat and though they get hot, not hot enough so the pan can't be lifted.



The problem with this holder is that it only comes in one size and is internally deeply ribbed (presumably to create an air channel and less contact for cooling efficiency). I have 6.5" through 15" Lodge pans. Each handle is a different size and shape. The 6.5" is so small that this holder allows the handle to just slosh around inside. The only way to get a confident grip on the pan with the holder on is to really squeeze down on the holder. As the holder is quite thick, it won't fold over and the internal ribs prevent real compression of the holder. Sort of a spring action. In short, the little handle is so short and narrow that this holder just swallows it up and confident grasp is really not possible. Factor this in with the fact that oil/grease finds its way up cast iron handles and you have a real issue because of the internal ribs. There is very little actual contact between the holder and the handle because of these ribs. Good for low heat transfer. REALLY bad for grabbing the handle.



But who uses such tiny pans other than myself? Let's talk about the 10" that everybody uses. The fit here is much much better. Still, not snug enough. Unlike with the 6.5" pan, heft and weight of the pan is an issue. Though the fit is more snug, the greater effort maneuvering the 10" gives a less-than-confident feeling. I like to sautee so I flip my pans a lot. Yes, even heavy cast iron pans. Not with this holder on the handle. The ribs simply limit contact with the pan far too much. It's back to the trusty old cloth for sauteeing... ANY grease on the handle and the holder becomes a lubricated sleeve that can actually spin around the handle.



The 15" pan's handle fits about the same in the holder as the 10" though it reaches closer to the holder's tip.



In summary, this holder is fine for simply grabbing the pan and rotating it on the burner or for holding the pan as you stir its contents or for two-handed lifts using the helper handle (and hey, where's the helper handle holders???). For sauteeing or one-handed lifts (or even two-handed lifts by the main handle only), the poor grip (even lubricated SLIDING) of this holder really limits its usefulness as a handle holder.



I've ordered the Lodge cloth-exteriored (but still internally silicone-lined) holders hoping for better grip. I understand that those handles can't be left on the pans. I'll use them as a replacement for a cloth. Hopefully there aren't any internal ribs on those holders or they'll get sent back prior to use.



Lodge really dropped the ball here, only offering one size. Frankly, I think they should include custom-fitted handles with every pan. They are cheap to make and wouldn't increase the cost of the pans much. They should also be made of much thicker silicone without ribs. This way, they can just stay on the pans and will fit and grip MUCH MUCH better and restrict heat at least as well.



I hope you're listening, Lodge... Send me a free set for review. ;)

Francois et Mimi Iron Weave Fruit Basket, Bowl, Black

CUSTOMER REVIEW



Vine Customer Review of Free Product (What's this?) Besides using this as a fruit bowl, it will also make a very nice catch all for your bread products that you keep on your kitchen counter.



This fruit bowl is pretty substantial, but not very heavy given the fact that it's iron. The dimensions are over 12" in length, and over 5" deep, so it can hold quite a bit of whatever you choose to put in it. There are 3 small balls on the bottom of the fruit bowl. It has a nice open weave design to it.



I keep most fruits in my refrigerator, except for my bananas. I do keep tomatoes, which is technically a fruit on my kitchen counter, where I also keep my potatoes or sweet potatoes.



I also think this iron weave bowl would make a great housewarming gift, where you could fill it with kitchen towels, oven mitts or potholders, maybe a bread or muffin mix or two, and some kitchen gadgets. I would line the bowl with a pretty colored napkin first, and maybe include several more in the bowl too. Whatever would suit the receiver of this gift.



Or you could fill this fruit bowl with pampering bath/shower products. There could be many uses for this fruit bowl, only limited by your imagination!

Nordic Ware Natural Aluminum Commercial Baker's Half Sheet

Product Description

Style Name: Half Sheet

Nordic Ware's line of Natural Commercial Bakeware is designed for commercial use, and exceeds expectations in the home. The durable, natural aluminum construction bakes evenly and browns uniformly, while the light color prevents overbrowning. The oversived edge also makes getting these pans in and out of the oven a cinch. Proudly made in the USA by Nordic Ware






CUSTOMER REVIEW



Be sure to read this whole review because there is a very happy ending!!



First the things I like...the pan is nice and heafty and well balanced. It's made in the USA. It heats evenly and does a great job baking cookies, and other dough items....actually everything I've baked on it. Now my big beef with this product! I wouldn't feel comfortable putting any food DIRECTLY on this pan. Every time you wash it...(and I do follow recommended instructions and wash by hand)...everything turns a muddy gray...the sponge, the rinse water, your hands, everything. It's even hard to wash the gray off your hands after your done. I hate that so just won't let food actually cook on the surface. I'll always use parchment paper. Don't trust all that gray metallic colored residue that comes off in the washing process.



Update Feb 20, 2012: I sent Nordic Ware an e-mail asking if they could explain the reason for all the gray metal color all over everything when I wash this pan. I told them I was very happy to buy a pan made in the USA and the product did perform flawlessly. I was just concerned about all the leaching of whatever it is. Never got a reply.



Update Nov 19, 2012: After almost a year someone commented on my feedback suggesting I try contacting Nordic Ware customer service again. Thank you Bon!! I felt it only fair to try again since so many people love this sheet. Low and behold I received a quick reply. After explaining the situation, they e-mailed a form to fill out and mail in. I just got an e-mail saying they received it, reviewed the information, and they're sending me a new pan because THE GRAYING I'M EXPERIENCING IS NOT NORMAL. I don't know what happened to my original e-mails but based on THIS customer service experience with Nordic, I'd say it was a flawless experience. The service was friendly, quick, and fair. As soon as I receive the new sheet, I'll wash it, use it, wash it one more time and then report back. I suspect it will be a totally different experience this time....the way we do it here IN THE USA!!!!



Update Dec 3, 2012: I have received the replacement half sheet. After washing several times I have no problem with gray residue. I'm convinced the first sheet I received was defective. This one is perfect...just what I expected from Nordic Ware. This is a company no one should ever be concerned about dealing with. They stand behind their products and, not only deliver quality products, but back them with quality customer service. I'm a believer.

Brawny Giant Roll Paper Towel, Pick-A-Size, White, 24 Count

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I made this purchase because I was stocking up and buying in bulk. Now that I have gone through about 6 rolls, here's what I have found:



Absorbency (6/10): I've found that this tissue has just average absorbency. It definitely does not absorb as much as my last paper towel and soaks big spills up fairly quickly. Expect to use more of this paper towel than your average Bounty towel.



Softness (2/10): This is definitely not the towel you want to be wiping your infant's face with. It is quite abrasive (compared to most towels) and obviously designed for more utilitarian purposes. More for tabletops and floors than as napkins (we've all used paper towels as napkins before).



Durability (9/10): This towel provides excellent durability when using it over and over again. I have a tendency to take a few paper towels and rinse them with water over and over again until the job is finished for sake of conserving waste. I've found that this towel lasts much longer than my Costco brand paper towel and while it is well absorbent, it's right up there next to the expensive Bounty we get every once in a while.



If you're looking to stock up on a household cleaning paper towel. This is great, just don't expect it to mop up the really wet jobs without using a good amount.

(Please watch my video review for more information)



****[UPDATED Review after More than 6 Months of Use]****

My Thoughts:

I honestly can't say enough how awesome this bag holder is! It is exactly what I was looking for and I do not regret the purchase one bit! Since my initial purchase, I have bought one for my aunt, mom, and sister and they all love theirs just as much as I love mine! If you are in the market for something like this, stop searching and buy this!



What would I change?:

The only thing that I can think to change is to make the opening on the top a little bit larger. I'm one of those people that rarely goes to the grocery store, but when I do, I spend A LOT of money and get a ton of groceries and thus have a million bags that I want to quickly through into this dispenser. A larger cutout would make this easier to store more bags.



****[Original Review After 1 Week of Use]****

This is an item that everyone simple MUST have!!!!



Why did I buy this?:

Before, I simply had a bag under the sink that I would stuff with plastic bags when I got home from the grocery store. This solution worked out okay for a while, but whenever you wanted to get 1 bag out, you would pull and a million bags would fall out creating a huge mess and making me angry. I started looking for a solution....



Why this product?:

I have seen many similar products, my mom bought one from IKEA, but they are mostly frail, flimsy, breakable plastic. The one she had cracked within a week. As an engineer, I always go above and beyond making sure that anything I purchase will stay with me for awhile. Because of that, I sought after a plastic bag holder made of the best material....STEEL!!

Not only does steel not crack, it also looks very sophisticated. So much in fact that you don't even need to hide this in a closet! I gave this to my aunt for her birthday and she has it right by the door leading into her pantry for everyone to see. It honestly looks great mounted on a wall.



Installation Tips:

-Use Drywall Studs for more secure fit

-BE CAUTIOUS WHEN USING THE TAPE!! IT"S INCREDIBLY STICKY!



Pros:

-DURABLE

-Large bag capacity

-Looks very nice



Cons (It is kind of a pro too):

-The adhesive tape it too sticky (if you happen to touch the adhesive to the wall before it's in the final position you want, you will probably rip of the paint like I did in the video)



Overall:

Honestly this is one of the best innovations I have purchased on amazon and I cannot recommend it highly enough. I will admit that I was skeptical from the start due to the incredible value however this did not disappoint.

CUSTOMER REVIEW



I made this purchase because I was stocking up and buying in bulk. Now that I have gone through about 6 rolls, here's what I have found:



Absorbency (6/10): I've found that this tissue has just average absorbency. It definitely does not absorb as much as my last paper towel and soaks big spills up fairly quickly. Expect to use more of this paper towel than your average Bounty towel.



Softness (2/10): This is definitely not the towel you want to be wiping your infant's face with. It is quite abrasive (compared to most towels) and obviously designed for more utilitarian purposes. More for tabletops and floors than as napkins (we've all used paper towels as napkins before).



Durability (9/10): This towel provides excellent durability when using it over and over again. I have a tendency to take a few paper towels and rinse them with water over and over again until the job is finished for sake of conserving waste. I've found that this towel lasts much longer than my Costco brand paper towel and while it is well absorbent, it's right up there next to the expensive Bounty we get every once in a while.



If you're looking to stock up on a household cleaning paper towel. This is great, just don't expect it to mop up the really wet jobs without using a good amount.
