(Capresso Water Filters) 『We've used the Capresso Coffee Maker for the last twelve or so years and the charcoal water filters do exactly what you'd like them to do: filter the water before making the coffee. We change them on the first of each month and believe that they make a big difference in the taste of our coffee.』
(Good Product) 『I normally purchase these filters from one of a local kitchen or appliance store; however, they were all out and the stores could not give me an ETA. Therefore, I purchased them on Amazon because I needed them. The price wasn't any bargain compared to store bought but with Amazon's free shipping; it did save me some gas money. As for the product itself I have been using it for years and it is made for my coffee maker and I have no complaints. I mean there isn't a whole lot you can say about these filters unless you notice that they don't work.』
(The right choice) 『It's the right choice for your Capresso coffee-maker. Ours is not an espresso machine. This is the right fit and it was so easy to find on Amazon.com!』
(To Filter or not to Filter; that is the question!) 『This is my 3rd Capresso 454 Coffee maker. I love them! Great coffee, all the time. The filters that are used (1 comes with it) are about $5 each...3 for $15. What a giant ripoff!! First, I think charcoal filters are a good idea....but Jeez, $5 per filter?!! These things should sell for $.50 each! A total ripoff! My suggestion (after buying a 3 pack) is to use filtered water...or tap water. I don't think you will see a difference. This filter is specially shaped to go into the little basket, so other filters won't work. What a great idea...One could spend a fortune on filters alone! Use plain cold water....tastes the same!』 『The charcoal filter cartridge removes up to 82% of the chlorine and other impurities found in tap water, improving the taste of the water and coffee.

Nordic Ware
Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (lazy mans way) 『works just as advertised. quick and tasty. No more waiting 20 years for water to boil.』
(Perfect soft eggs every time) 『It is rather small and won't take more space on your counter than a big coffee mug. Just put cold tap water (they even made a water level line, so you do not need to measure), place into the cooker metal tray, close the cooker, and place into microwave. I use Sanyo EM-S2588W 2/3-Cubic-Foot Microwave Oven, White at high settings, so it is 800 watt, and large eggs right out of refrigerator. In 7 minutes I have perfectly cooked soft boiled eggs: hard whites and liquid yolks. Frankly, I've never cooked soft boiled eggs as perfect as this little baby does.』
(Diminishing returns... back to stove boiling) 『My first 2 batches were too soft, but I eventually found the perfect time for my Microwave (GE 1.4CF 1100W) to be 7min. I got about 8-10 perfect batches from it, and then the egg cracking started. One guaranteed cracked egg for every batch of 4. Not a pretty sight. Also the grey egg plate has lost some of its coating and blackened at the contact points with the eggs; I'm not sure if this is causing the eggs to overheat and crack.
Oh well, it was good while it lasted.
Pros: 1. Cheap 2. Worked perfect for 8-10 batches
Cons: 1. Eggs crack consistently now - cracked eggs smell and fume even while the cooker is in the microwave and are not a pretty sight when removed 2. Produces a lot of heat and steam; totally fogs up my microwave door. I worry about screwing up my microwave oven. 3. Very hot and needs to be handled with care, and given time to cool. With the time it takes to cool, don mitts, clean, etc. I wonder if you're actually saving a whole lot of time.
I've never had trouble boiling eggs with a pan on the stove, except for the time it took, so now I'm back to doing that. At least no cracked eggs or other surprises. I also discovered I could boil the entire dozen at once and leave them in the fridge with their shells on, and just thaw them out when I need them. This is working great; wonder why I didn't think of this before.』
(Now the kids can make their own eggs!) 『I just love this egg cooker. My kids love hard boiled eggs, but I hate the work. Now we're both happy! It's so simple the kids can make their own eggs. It does get hot, though, so make sure your kids are old enough to handle hot things with care. Perfect for anytime you want 4 or less eggs. Still have to do it the old fashioned way when you want to make more.』
(Love my Nordic Ware Microwave Egg Cooker) 『We use it several times a week. Eggs are low calories and high in protein. I cook the eggs for ten minutes for nice hard boiled eggs. I have only broken two eggs. I think it happened when the microwave was hot before I put the eggs in. So easy and almost no clean up.Nordic Ware Microwave Egg Cooker』 『Simple and fast. This microwavable egg shaped container makes perfect soft or hard boiled eggs. Holds up to 4 eggs. Dishwasher safe.』 『NordicWare's handy Microware TM series for the microwave gives home chefs the tools they need for clean, lean, and fast cooking. This unique egg boiler safely prepares up to four hard- or soft-boiled eggs within its own white, oval shell. To use, simply place whole eggs into the little grooves of the interior perforated shelf (piercing not required), then screw on the top and cook. No more hot water and delicate maneuvering to keep the delicate goods intact! The plastic boiler is high-heat tolerant and goes conveniently into the dishwasher.--Kara Karll』

OXO
Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Y Peeler) 『Great product. Very sharp and makes peeling easy and fast. I rated it four stars only because it's a bit large for my hand size. I'd like it to be just a bit smaller which would make it easier to grip for me. However, I compensate by placing my index finger thru the Y opening (there's plenty of room) and this allows me to control it better due to my small hand. Although I highly recommend it for someone who has larger hands, I would myself purchase a smaller one next time I needed a y peeler. The sharpness and ease of use and cleaning certainly makes this a winner!』
(Great Peeler) 『This peeler works great! Your hand doesn't get in the way of the work as sometimes happens with the traditional design. I haven't used the potato eye gouger and probably won't, but the peeler is ergonomic and well made.』
(very pleased) 『This product has lasted several years and is still going strong with the original blade. No complaints at all.』
(The best I've ever used!) 『I've used quite a few peelers in my lifetime, and this OXO is the best. The blades are sharp and set at just the right contour for fast and efficient peeling. I peel mostly root vegetables so it is important to wash most of the dirt off before using the peeler to reduce dulling the blades. The handle is very comfortable. Try to keep the blade guard the OXO comes with to protect the blades during storage.』
(Best peeler ever) 『I never knew that these "Y peelers" existed until recently. After watching some cooking videos I saw how easy they made the peeling seem. Did some research, and bought this OXO last week.
After 1 week I have to say that this peeler is great. I've peeled everything in the house including my fingernail. The blade is sharp, watch out. It also slices the side of a cheese block perfectly. The cheese is a little thin, but just throw two slices on there and your good.
The handle is wide and allows you to have a firm solid grip. The blade swivels. The "eyer" is not sharp so soft fruits or vegetables gets a little smashed (tomatoes). And yes I was peeling the the skin off tomatoes. It works.
Bottom Line: Works great, feels great. Peeling is 100 times easier over those side peelers. Construction feels solid. Good quality. $12 well spent. Seems like a great gift too for those wannabe Gordon Ramseys out there like me.』 『OXO brings its new longer-lasting, longer-length, stainless steel blade to the favorite tool of European chefs. The OXO Good Grips i-Series Y Peeler has a non-slip, contoured grip for more control when peeling delicate asparagus and tomatoes; plus an extended grip for peeling carrots and cucumbers. Constructed of sturdy, die-cast zinc, this Y Peeler features an efficient eyer to quickly remove stubborn blemishes from fruits and vegetables. For maximum safety and effectiveness peeler blades, like knife blades, should be sharp. You can easily replace the Y Peeler blade with OXO's Peeler Blade Replacement Cartridge, sold separately.』

We got ours just three years ago and the lever catch has already given up the ghost. A quick glance through other people's reviews looks like this is a common enough problem. It still toasts but you've got to hold down the lever, and who wants to do that? Too bad.』
(great toaster - great seller - thank you!) 『it does exactly what i want - when i want. love the defrost, reheat and cancel button!
thanks - a very happy camper here!』
(Even browning, toast to toast) 『Never burned, bread or toast. I am very happy with this toaster. I just wish it came in more colors.』
(Decent, not fantastic) 『We chose this toaster for it's smaller footprint - there are so many enormous ugly toasters on the market, and we wanted a compact version. It basically toasts ok, (we don't toast anything fancy) can burn easily, and the supposed LED lights are a fake. We actually returned the first one because we couldn't believe that the light was working; next one, same thing. What looks like it should light up next to the selection button, doesn't. It's just a number dial with a back light. Oh well, it was inexpensive...now we'll see how long it lasts. I had expected better from Cuisinart.』
(what a piece of S---) 『Can I give less than one star, please? Buying a toaster is always a pig in a poke-- you can't exactly test them in the store, can you. I have owned many that didn't work out, and this one is no exception. For a while it worked more or less adequately; but has No crumb tray; when I turned it over to shake out the debris, the lever catch stopped working. It heats up if you hold down the lever manually, but who wants to do that? Investigating the innards to try to fix it, I can now see what cheap trash it really is. I'm glad my food processor is kitchenaid and not cuisinart. This toaster is about 1 yr old. i despair thinking about a replacement, and doubt I can be assured of a good one. I'd be willing to pay quite a lot, I like toast, but I fear I'd only be disappointed, and no test drive is possible. so I must remain toastless. Maybe I'll haul a loaf of bread down to sur la table or macys and demand a demo. Of course that will be no test of durability. But I will avoid cuisinart products in future, and so should you.』 『Ancient Romans left bread heating on rocks as a means of toasting to preserve the bread. You don't have to. You can enjoy delicious, toasted bread anytime you want, in moments not hours. Cuisinart CPT-120 is a stylish, functional toaster that is designed for precision and ease. There are 9 settings to choose the brown-ness of your toast. It just doesn't work with store sliced bread. It has 2 extra-wide slots to accept an English Muffin or a Bagel.

I do love the fact that nothing gets left stuck on the sides because the pan "disassembles" from the bottom.

Does the job perfectly...and less expensive than the marketed perfect brownie advertised on the television set.』

One after another their toasters gave up the ghost, toasting only one side of the morning's slices, and off my step-father would go to the store to get a new one. Ever frugal, the next new one would soon be on the fritz. These toasters were clearly products of planned obsolescence. Now that I am a bit of an old coot myself, and my own chain of toasters is getting pretty long, I decided to purchase not the cheapest, but what might be expected to be the BEST. it's KitchenAid after all.
So far so good, works like a dream, fast even toasting on BOTH sides ...Amazing! I love it.』
(Perfectly fine toaster) 『What's there to say about a toaster? I've been using it to toast German dark wheat bread or the occasional English muffin, and it so far it seems to work just fine. But then, so did my cheapo Rival toaster for 10 years or so until it finally stopped popping up.』
(A Nicely Built and Practical Model) 『Honestly, this is the first toaster I have ever purchased. I am from China. Toasted bread is not my traditional breakfast. But I recently fell in love with bagel and were finding ways to reproduce the crunchy, chewable yet soft feel that a bagel store usually offers. I read numerous positive reviews on the bagel function of this product which clicks with my intention nicely. Then I decided to give it a shot. It didn't fall short of my expectation at all. I enjoyed every browned and a little edge-burned piece of bagel out of this functional product. Even my picky husband was quite impressed and praised my worthy purchase. What's more can ask for? I would give it a top rating and I believe quality products should be enjoyed by more consumers. I am sending my two cents and hopefully this will draw more people to the right product.』
(worth the money but rye still won't fit) 『This does an excellent job toasting compared to any of the $20-30 units and the color goes well in our kitchen. Its styling is however a little clunky retro. Our only complaint is we still have to cut a half inch off our rye bread to toast it. Why can't any of these guys make a regular size toaster that an oblong piece of bread will fit into?? This unit is a bit larger and there is definitely room for longer slots.』
(It looks nice) 『It looks nice. I haven't used it a whole lot but it seems to toast better on one side than the other also it stinks when toasting. Other than that.... It's great.

If you've ever used a regular old measuring cup for peanut butter, sour cream, mayonnaise, margarine, honey, or anything thick/sticky that does not pour easily, you know that getting the stuff out of the cup is the hard part. This cup makes it easy, and you're not left trying to scrape every last bit out of the cup. I think this measuring cup should be in every kitchen!』
(Look Elsewhere) 『I bought this device because I had a less fancy one from Pampered Chef that worked so well, I jumped at the chance for another one. While this one has a nice shiny finish, you can't turn it inside out for liquids; you can only use it for dry or wet solids and syrups. It broke after about five uses. If I had the choice, I would not by again - I'll just get another one from Pampered Chef or another brand. You're better off buying one that you can adjust for solids and dry (like sour cream, pureed pumpkin) that can be turned around for liquids like like or broth.』
(Bummer...) 『...As I was pulling the tube off to wash it after the first use, the black plastic disk snapped off. Am afraid to re-glue it as I worry that the glue wouldn't be food-safe.

WHICH I ORDERED BY MISTAKE, BUT FOR THE 12 CUP REPLACEMENT I ENDED UP BUYING』
(Bodum's Win, Win) 『It's a win for Bodum in the design and function of their French Press. I've been using one (make that several ) for a number of years now... works great. As for the other 'win'? Bodum's received additional funds from yours truly as their beakers are incredibly fragile and as mentioned by several loyal customers, they break very easily. If it weren't for the fact that my cups o' coffee made with freshly roasted beans go down so well after using the press, I'd most certainly find other means for brewing a cup. Bottom line: great coffee, breaks too easily... more revenue for Bodum!

(Buying a replacement beaker...get 2) 『If you are buying this, you've most likely already broken the original beaker that came with your Bodum coffee press. So do yourself a favor and buy 2 and get the free shipping. If you've broken it once, chances are you'll probably break it again. The coffee press is great, and it's less expensive to replace the beaker than buy a whole new setup.』
(Still conflicting info on website description) 『There is some incorrect/conflicting info on the Amazon website. Bodum's website lists model 1580-10 as 7" x 3-3/4". Amazon's page for "Bodum 34-Ounce Coffee Press Replacement Beaker, Glass" shows the model as 1508-10 and the "Product Dimensions: 7.3 x 4.2 x 4.2 inches ; 12.3 ounces" which is not only wrong in itself (12.3 ounces is obviously wrong) but the dimensions are for the larger Bodum model 1512-10. So, if I buy this replacement carafe, do I get the right model or the right dimensions, since one or the other is wrong? Most of the info listed points to the 1508-10, but if they ship the larger one, who's to blame, them or me? Caveat emptor. For $20 it wouldn't be worth my time to return/replace, so I'm going to order direct from Bodum and avoid the problem.
