Dirt Devil 110009 Reaction with Soft Touch Upright Vacuum Cleaner

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Dining (284507)
from: Royal Appliance


When I was shopping for a new vacuum I really wanted to check out the Dyson's, needless to say I was sticker shocked at the prices. The most comparable and more affordable vacuum was this one from Dirt Devil. It has great suction, is easy to use, not too heavy. I would recommend this one to friends. The only complaint I have is the hose attachment slides off a little too easily, and I will notice it off while I am vacuuming, which in result I am not getting any suction and have to redo the area I thought was done. But that may just be user error. ;-)

This is a nice little heater. It works well. I set it by my feet at work and soon I'm warm. The only thing that would make it better is a timer.

Oster 4207 Electric Wine Opener

This wine opener is extremely easy to use. It looks ok to set out on the counter all the time, so it's convenient and much harder to lose than regular wine openers! Sometimes doesn't work on plastic corks, but that doesn't detract from the usefulness. I highly recommend it!

Black & Decker D2030 Auto-Off Digital Advantage Iron

I think most iron are pretty much the same. What make this one special is that
1. It turns off by it self if you don't move it for few minutes.( I think it is a necessary feature no matter how alert you are)
2. It tell you when the temperature is "ready" for the fabric you choose. And it is very easy to set it up.
3. Stainless surface make it very efficient. (but may get some calcification in the long run compare to non-stick surface.

I am very satisfied with this except one little thing. Amazon drop the price from $49.99 to $40 few days after I bought it.

KitchenAid KP26M1XNP Professional 600 Series 6-Quart Stand Mixer, Nickel Pearl

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Dining (284507)
from: KitchenAid


I received this mixer as a gift for Christmas 2006. In October 2008 it broke - internals gears and housing cracked. It is no longer under warranty and is a $150+ repair. I used the mixer for regular household tasks about 2 times a week - i.e., nothing out of the ordinary.

I'm really disappointed - so much for my $300+ investment! Kitchen Aid customer service can do nothing for me - I'm leery of purchasing their products again. I do have the 4.5 qt. mixer that I used for 12 years and am again using now - it no longer locks but otherwise works fine. But I miss making double batches of bread, cookies, etc. GRRRRRR!!!!

Cuisinart TOB-175BC Convection Toaster Oven/Broiler, Brushed Chrome

This oven is used most every day, and has proved to be a solid performer. As time passed, I have used pretty much all of the functions of the oven, and learned to customize settings. I have not had a single problem with the oven since the day it arrived.

Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator

from: Vinturi


The Vinturi aerator softens wine's feel on the palate by accelerating the 'breathing' effect. It pulls air into the wine as it flows into either the glass or decanter creating a pleasurable taste experience, turning a good bottle of wine into a better bottle of wine.

If you love the corners pieces when baking brownies, this is the pan for you. Not only will you enjoy more corner pieces then you thought possible, the pan is very well made. It feels like a better pan then I have ever purchased. It is a big hit with company.

Hoover U5140-900 Tempo Widepath Bagged Upright Vacuum

This vacuum is such a value. I had researched vacuums before I bought a new one. I didn't want to spend a whole lot so I read consumer reports. This was rated very highly for price, suction, pet hair, etc. I totally agree with it all. I would definitely recommend this vacuum to someone else. In fact, I did. I told our good friends about it. They had mentioned that they were looking for the same things we were and they bought one. They too have been very pleased with their purchase. Buy it. You will like it.
