Norpro 5 1/2-Inch Stainless Steel Funnel with Detachable Strainer

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Norpro


The strainer is almost impossible to get seated so the oil bypasses, as well as material that needs to be filtered out. The strainer clogs readily and it takes quite a while to even attempt to filter the cooking oil. Very frustrating to use.

Zyliss Palm-Held Pizza Slicer, Red

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Zyliss


What I like:

1. Comfortably fits in my hand, better shape to get leverage on that pizza when cutting it.
2. The fact that it comes apart and you can wash the components in the dishwasher, then reassemble. Feels more sanitary to me.
3. Generously sized cutting wheel.
4. Great for cutting other things too, like sandwiches, pancakes, or dough.
5. Red is a pretty cool color!

Rubbermaid 7J12 Premier 20-Piece Food-Storage Container Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Rubbermaid


These Premier containers are the ones I reach for first when I need a storage container. Like the Stain Saver line they replaced, they simply do not stain, even when holding tomato sauce or chili.

These are made of thick polycarbonate, and unlike the Stain Saver line, they have not cracked or broken. (Stain Savers were known to split in half in the dishwasher even w/unheated dry cycle.) The Premier lids fit snugly and the containers stack securely in the fridge. The covers fit the bottom of the containers and nest nicely, and the containers nest nicely as well. The only complaint I have is they don't make the small size (1 cup, I think) anymore.

I plan on buying more of these.

from: Pyrex


I just love it ! Great quality and really big ! It is not very heavy so it's easy to move around and turn while you mix but it is also stable enough and does not move all over the counter. Great value too !

Intermatic HB1116R Six Outlet Electro Mechanical Outdoor Timer with Stake, Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Intermatic


Be warned that the electrical cord is less than two feet long. Unless you wall mount this timer right next to an outlet, you will need an extra extension cord. I planned to use the stake to place this timer in the ground near an outdoor outlet, but the outlet is over two feet above grade. A longer cord would have been much more practical.

Tovolo Perfect Cube Silicone Ice Cube Trays, Set of 2, Dark Blue

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Tovolo


Terrible product. You practically have to gnaw the cubes out of the sticky rubber. They certainly don't pop out. And although the ice doesn't taste like rubber, we can imagine the carcinogenic rubber sticking to your stomach liner. We can't believe Amazon sells this useless product.

Mr. Beer Deluxe Edition Home Microbrewery System

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cooks Tools and Gadgets
from: Mr. Beer


Really easy to use product. Comes with direct and detailed instructions and an informative, well written, pamphlet. The most time consuming task was sterilizing the equipment and the most difficult is waiting for the fermentation to finish. The name Mr Beer seems kind of shallow and cheap, but you'll be surprised at how good the beer is and because of the quality and ease of making the product, you really want to try out or experiment with their other varieties!
