Miracle-Gro 0061905-365 Organic Choice Potting Mix - 8 Quart Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have very few requirements when it comes to potting soil. It needs to be high in nutrients, it needs to be well draining, and it needs to be pest free. I can't comment on the first one, but I can say with great confidence that Miracle-Gro Organic Choice Potting Mix fails miserably at the latter two. The soil is dense as can be, with no perlite or vermiculite to lighten it up - as a result, it drains poorly and can be expected to develop pest problems. And develop pest problems it did - probably even before I opened the bag! Within two days of planting several pots of seedlings (indoors, I might add) the entire apartment was infested with fungus gnats! The larvae of fungus gnats take over a week to develop into flies, so clearly the larvae were in the bag before I even bought it. (I should note here that I purchased the potting mix from Home Depot, not Amazon.) When I contacted Miracle-Gro, they pointed out that they do not guarantee the sterility of the potting mix, and even implicitly acknowledged that fungus gnats regularly enter their mixes through the air holes in the bags. I strongly recommend against buying this product.

Oster 6.1-qt. Food Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This product would have been one step up from the previous generation of Oster steamers if it weren't for one very major flaw.
Good Points:
-it's inexpensive
-the electronic timer works really well (this was the new upgrade from previous models)
-it's versatile especially for Asian cooking
-it works really fast
Bad Points:
- MOLD the steamer's water inlet, that also serves to help you measure how much water is in the steamer, is a great way to collect mold. Currently it is nearly impossible to dry this inlet completely without pushing a qtip or tissue through, and no turning it upside down doesn't help since the inlet's curves are designed to keep water in - which is really stupid.
Oster should spend more time testing their products. This should have been fixed before being released.

Paderno World Cuisine Specialty Dough Cutter Sets Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I thought these were standard size cookie cutters but they turned out to be rather small. For example, each cherry is about the size of a dime. They didn't say mini and there is an overall dimension of 12x9x3 so I thought they were bigger. They don't say cookie cutter and are labeled dough cutter so I guess I should have realized there was a difference. My daughter's dolls just got some new cookie cutters!
