Bodum Chambord 8-Cup Press with Bonus Pavina Thermal Glasses

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Bodum


My press has been making coffee for nearly a year. Great coffee. Solid construction. This rating is for the product, not the shipping or packaging. Albeit the shipping and packaging were fine, too. Pressing coffee uses at least twice the coffee grinds. Can't live without it.

I had been wanting one of these griddlers for awhile and was pleased to find it at a great price. Shipping was fast, product was well packed. I couldn't find this product any cheaper. I've already used it to make pannini's and grilled cheese. It's great!

Bodum Chambord 8-Cup Coffee Press

from: Bodum


The Perfect Cup of Coffee!!! Absolutely my favorite product to make my coffee. I've been changing products for years, and this is the best and easiest for clean-up (well, the Keurig is easier -- yet the Keurig is honestly a piece of junk). I really recommend this French Press!

KitchenAid KFP750OB 700-Watt 12-Cup Food Processor, Onyx Black

from: KitchenAid


What a powerful machine. I absolutely love my processor. Shredded 2 bunches of carrots in about 10 seconds flat for carrot bread...delicious. One problem, I made Scalloped potatoes and got plastic shavings from the feed tube in the dish. It was probably my own fault, in my haste I may not have attached all the attachments properly. I still recommend it, so far. Just take care with the attachments and blades.

It's high quality, extremely sharp. I love it. Just wish it had arrived sooner. I don't know how I cooked without it.

Cuisinart WMR-CA Round Classic Waffle Maker

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Cuisinart

February 10, 2003
Based on positive reviews, I bought this waffle maker. The first thing I noticed was how cheap the adjustable setting slider was. Cheap and plastic. It's so loose, I couldn't even tell which setting it was on. Cooking was inconsistent as a result of this design flaw. After a few weeks, the slider broke.

I exchanged it for another of the same model. This new one had the same design flaw. In addition, the new one kept burning waffles. I returned it, too.

I will look for a different waffle maker.

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Curved Blade Bread Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


I bought this knife to replace a much-loved bread knife whose wooden handle had gotten dried and cracked. Wow! I hadn't realized how dull my old knife was until I used this one the first time. The bandaid on my finger attests to the keenness of the edge: on the very first draw through my morning bagel, it sliced as much as my old knife would have done in 3 draws, and reminded me that there is a correct slicing technique.

Great knife! Handle with care.

Oxo Good Grips Fat Separator, 4-Cup

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: OXO


I requested a fat separator for Christmas (my old one cracked) and received this one from my Mom. I love the fact that it will hold a full 4 cups of liquid and it has a stopper that seems to make the fat rise to the top quickly. The soft grip handle is comfortable in my hand. Just put the pieces in the dishwasher and cleanup is a snap!

The only thing I don't like is the large holes in the strainer let small pieces of meat, skin, etc. slip down into the broth. To solve the problem, when I pour the broth out, I pour it through a fine wire mesh strainer.

Of the three separators that I've owned, this is by far the best one! I highly recommend it.

Cuisinart CEK-40 Electric Knife

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Kitchen and Housewares
from: Cuisinart


Bought this knife less than a year ago. Used it maybe 20 times. Now, barely cuts through tender meat. I don't recommend it. Probably better to get the Black & Decker for 1/2 the price and replace it, if needed.
