Kuchenprofi Rolling 4-Blade Herb Cutter in 18/10 Stainless Steel Review

Kuchenprofi Rolling 4-Blade Herb Cutter in 18/10 Stainless Steel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I don't get it. I thought I would be able to mince herbs in no time at all with just a simple pass or two of the blades over the greens. But that didn't happen. Instead, after dozens of passes, all I had was a bunch of smooshed herbs caught in the blades. What a waste of money.
Don't buy.

Samson 6 in 1 Electric Wheatgrass Juicer Review

Samson 6 in 1 Electric Wheatgrass Juicer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a nice product - it's heavier & larger than I would have expected, but it is simple to use.
It juices pretty much everything, and the pulp that is left over is really quite dry - more so than a lot of the centrifugal juicers I have used.
I went for this model over some of the others because I wanted something that was a little more multipurpose. So far I have made several batches of pasta with it - really rather good too!
Cleaning is straightforward, there's not that many nooks & crannies to get worked up about, the screen cleans easily with any soft brush, the toothbrush supplied is good enough.
In all there's the outer housing for the auger, the auger itself, the screen and the end cap & nozzle. These parts have all made it through the dishwasher - the screen is the only piece you really need to do by hand... the other bits all seem to come perfectly clean with a good rinse in hot water (after juicing, anyway).
The auger does it's job nicely, the motor seems to be suitably powerful.
About as loud as a regular food processor.
The only thing I would say is that perhaps the buttons should be sealed.
The instruction manual is simplistic, but there are a wealth of recipes available elsewhere.

Cuisinart Food Chopper, Black Review

Cuisinart Food Chopper, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the worst piece I own by Cuisinart. I generally like their products but this thing stinks. My girlfriend bought me this for X-Mas (after I picked it out!). Let me say that I would give it negative stars if possible. I now have to waste time and fuel to drive it back to the store to recuperate the cost. The thing fell apart after 1/8 of an onion--which is, btw, all the space this thing has to chop. Was not sharp enough to cut through the tougher, outer onion layer. P-l-e-a-s-e! I took it all the way apart to see what could possibly "jam" a manual food chopper. I noticed that the blade piece unscrewed from the hand piece. No problem, right? Wrong, wrong! The pieces would not stay together. Needless to say that it almost ruined X-Mas once my girlfriend had to go digging through the trash for the receipt . . .

Tupperware Apple & Grape Fruit Locker Container Set Review

Tupperware Apple and Grape Fruit Locker Container Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

The Tupperware Apple and Grape Fruit Lockers are terrific. I used them, along with Tupperware's Rock N Serve Divided Dish, for my husband's lunches. They are a good size, not small. I peeled and sectioned two oranges for the apple locker and put mixed green and red grapes in the grape food locker. They kept the fruit safe from being crushed and he didn't have any leaks on the rest of his lunch. The apple is also great for cottage cheese or coleslaw and the grape container holds a big slice of pie. We have five sets of these and use them all. They are excellent for road trip snacks. He said he had never received as many comments before as he received on these. Men and women alike wanted to get them for themselves. Now that he is retired they still come in handy. We use them along with our Tupperware 3 Piece Impressions Bowl Set in Red and Green that holds a nice variety of snacks and, for beverages, we use the Tupperware Impressions Tumbler Set outside. Using unbreakable dinnerware, especially with grandchildren by the pool, is a good safety measure and, as a bonus, they look festive. ~ Mrs. B.

Ultra EuroJet Kitchen Sprayer - Black Review

Ultra EuroJet Kitchen Sprayer - Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am rating this product with a 5 star because it is extremely easy to install and because its double swivel adjustable sprayhead allows one to rinse a sink perfectly without having to use your hose sprayer. It also gives one the option to alternate between a normal water flow and a jet spray flow with a quick pull. This is the only problem with this item: the pull push sleeve does not last indefinetly, in my case a couple of years. Today was the third time I have purchased this item. I like it so much that I am willing to spend the ten bucks, even though I know I will have to replace it. Today I bought the "ultra" eurojet which looks slightly different and the plastic parts are black instead of white which fit my kitchen better. It is 3 dollars more expensive. I hope it will last longer.

For those who are renovating their kitchen on a shoe-string budget, the Eurojet sink sprayer is perfect! It acts like a fancy sink sprayer but even better because it has a double-swivel, adjustable sprayer to reach every inch of your sink. It's ecological too, as you use a lot less water to clean dishes, and turns low-pressure kitchen faucets into a powerful jet spray. The Eurojet features one minute installation and an all metal construction for years of durability and satisfaction. It¿s the European kitchen secret.

Been looking for this little gem everywhere. I've had one for years that finally gave out after I slammed the gadget drawer on it (you know, that draw filled with odds and ends). Anyway - wanted to give this little guy a good rating based on price point as well as how well it works for people with arthritis. The open handle makes it very easy to put your fingers through and pull vs the post handle grip types. Worth the shipping cost (which is 3x the item cost ;)

Strawberry Metal Cookie Cutter Review

I bought this cookie cutter thinking it would be big enough to make cookies on a stick. I was very disappointed at the small size of the cutter. Normally I would use one cookie per skewer but because the cookies are so small I would have to use at least three cookies per stick to make it look decent. This product in my opinion is only worth 99 cents.

Oxo Good Grips Herb Mincer Review

Oxo Good Grips Herb Mincer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Being pretty handy with a knife, I generally avoid products like this, but I was looking for another item to fulfill the 4 for 3 promotion and decided to get this. I'm surprised at how good it works as it does a much better job of chopping thyme and rosemary than I can with a knife. With thyme, I would remove the woody portion of the stem and chop it as finely as possible with my knife but still would have little pieces of stems that I couldn't get. Since the mincer can be moved over the herbs in different directions without lifting it from the work surface, all of the pieces get chopped or minced, and the lip on the handle allows you to scrape the herbs back to the center for mincing. The mincer can be held comfortably and securely in your hand, and it is easy to use, and just as with a knife, the herbs can be chopped coarse or fine. I have used it on thyme, sage, rosemary, parsley and cilantro with excellent results.
When the herbs accumulate on the blade, the mincer can be opened to give the blades a quick clean, and it can be disassembled for cleaning. I clean mine with a nylon bristle brush and a quick rinse under the faucet.
Though this sturdy and compact unit isn't a must have item for the kitchen, it does come in handy if you like to cook with fresh herbs.

Chasing leafy fresh herbs around with a big kitchen knife can be a time-consuming and irritating chore. Oxo offers an alternative with its Good Grips herb mincer. A hand tool with a rocking design and four stainless-steel blades, the mincer makes quick work of basil, mint, parsley, and other herbs. The durable plastic housing sports the signature Good Grips soft, non-slip grip and also ensures that fingers stay away from the cutting action. Designed to separate into two pieces for easy cleanup, the mincer is dishwasher-safe and comes with a protective blade guard for storage. Other specialty prep tools in this line include a mango splitter, a strawberry huller, and a corn stripper.

Chef's Planet PrepTaxi  -  Stainless Steel Food Scoop
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the stupidest design. The first thing I did when I took this out of the box was to remove the cardboard label. A little corner of the cardboard ripped off and got stuck in between the handle and the scooper. The handle does not sit flush on the scooper so things can fall down into the handle. But it's not a big enough gap to get it back out once it's fallen in. I can just imagine chopping an onion into little pieces, scooping it up and having some of the pieces get caught in the handle and left there to rot forever. Who designed this thing anyway? I sent it back and will look for a something solid.

The slicer is extremely light and the quality of the cutting strips is poor. One of the cutting strips broke on first use and some of the others started to bend after a few uses.
