Ozeri Precision Pro Digital Kitchen Scale with Oversized Weighing Platform, Stainless Steel Review

Ozeri Precision Pro Digital Kitchen Scale with Oversized Weighing Platform, Stainless Steel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Just to give you guys a little background, I bake my own bread and to do so, I need to weigh the incredients rather than using a volumetric measurement such as Cups or liters. I've been baking for a few years now and as a result, I've gone through quite a number of kitchen scales. But every scale that I've owned in the past had a flaw or a 'foible' so to speak: weight limit being way too low, hard to read display, flimsy weighing platform, inconsistency... the list goes on. Of course, some cost way more than others, but for the price I paid for this scale, it was perfect.
Weight capacity - It can weigh things up to 11 lbs, which is important for me. In case you're wondering why, having a high limit allows you to weigh incredients in bowls, which can be heavy at times.
Simplicity - One thing I've noticed, is that if a scale is more complicated, its just more things that can break. This scale is simple yet it has all the necessary functions such as Tare, and Unit change.
Cleaning - The stainless weighing platform makes cleaning an easy task. Things just wipe right off.
Durability - The materials and construction seem very sturdy and well built. It doesnt seem as fragile as some of my past scales, and a definate plus is the sturdy weighing platform.
consistency - A scale is meant to weigh things, and if a scale can't to do that right, then we're in trouble. But have no worries, this scale is on the dot every time. ( use a nickel, which weighs 5.0 grams exactly )
Overall, its a great deal and its been flawless so far. Oh, and yes I could recommend it to others!

Featuring high-precision accuracy and a wider, 6-inch round measuring platform, the Ozeri Precision Digital Scale is a great tool in any kitchen and to take on the go. It weighs less than 1 pound and is less than an inch thick for ultra easy portability and space efficiency. Updated with the latest generation in sensor technology, the scale provides precise results in graduations of 1g or 0.1 ounce. The digital scale has a large, bright, easy-to-read LCD screen with an improved viewing angle so it can be seen from most anywhere in the kitchen. It also features two oversized buttons that generate an audible click confirmation for the fast-paced cook, and an automatic Tare button that quickly calculates the net weight of ingredients by subtracting the container weight. So it's easy to measure sugars, flours, or any grains on a small plate or in a small bowl from which they can easily be removed. The scale's weighing platform is finished in smooth elegant steel, and has a capacity range from a mere 0.1 ounce to 11 pounds and 0.4 ounces (1 gram to 50 grams). The scale also displays results in both the US and international metric systems (grams, ounces, pounds, and kilograms). The scale also includes a 1-minute automatic turn off to preserve battery life, yet gives ample time to confirm each measurement. It is powered by 1 Lithium battery and includes an easy-access battery compartment with no screwdriver needed.

Rada Cutlery Cooks Utility Knife, Made in USA, Dishwasher Safe Black Handle (W240) Review

I had been given a set of Rada knives and liked the sharpness of the blades. I needed another chef's knife, so I bought this one. Although it's lighter and stays sharper than my Henkels, it takes some getting used to. I've seriously cut myself twice with it. Rada blades are fairly flexible, so they seem to be better for smaller knives than these larger ones. I still use this knife, but it's not really strong enough to be a serious chef's knife.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I do quite a bit of baking, and have worked my way through a number of pans. I tried this pan based on a recommendation, and am now planning to replace all my tired bakeware with USA Pans! This is a solid pan of good weight that provides even baking and browning. Clean-up is effortless: a little dishwashing liquid, warm water and a light scrub were all it took.
If you've never purchased anything but "supermarket pans," the price on these might throw you. But, if you bake with any regularity, I believe you'll find these pans to be well worth the cost. They will NOT warp in the oven, there are no hot spots, and I expect this pan to last for decades.

The USA Pans 8" Square Cake Pan is constructed of aluminized steel, the material of choice for commercial bakeries. The metal thickness has been selected to allow for even heat distribution and maximum service life. An important and unique feature of this pan is its corrugated design. Corrugation maximizes the pans strength and prevents warping, denting and other effects of everyday use. Plus, it also minimizes surface contact which translates into evenly baked products that are easily released. For additional strength, pan features rolled edges with internal steel wires. No need for messy and unhealthy oil and grease. This pan is coated with Americoat. Americoat is a proprietary silicone coating. It provides a clear, non-stick, environmentally friendly, non-toxic baking surface, specially formulated for superior baking. It's FDA approved; it does not contain PTFE's or PFOA's. It is not recommended to exceed baking temperature of 400 degrees F. Easy care. To clean, simply wipe clean after use; soap and water are okay to use. It is not recommended that pan be washed in dishwasher because harsh chemicals can cause the non-stick material to breakdown in time. Dry pan completely, after cleaning. USA Pans is the newest line of bakeware developed by American Pan, the world's largest manufacturer of commercial bakeware. Pans are made of 65% recycled steel. Made in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, USA.

Sassafras Deep Dish Pizza and Pie Baker Review

Sassafras Deep Dish Pizza and Pie Baker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've prided myself on my homemade pizza for years. It's something I take very seriously no matter if I am making my dough from scratch, or if time doesn't permit, using pre-made refridgerated dough. Now I've used all sorts of pizza pans to bake my pies from the round aluminum sheets, to the large round sheets with the holes in them, to the rectangular pans that pizzerias use for deep dish pizza. Bottom line is that none of them gave as true a pizzeria taste as when I used a baking stone. But if there's one drawback I had from using my stone is was my love of deep dish pizza. You could make some thick doughs on the stone, but ultimately you usually ended up with a very thick crust at the edges while the cheese, sauce, and other items all slid to the center of the pie.
With this round, deepdish edged stone you can make a true deep dish pizza because you can flatten out the entire pie just the way you want. You can leave it high at the edges or flatten it entirely. I like to make s chicago deep dish by layering the bottome with sausage or pepperoni before putting on a layer of cheese, then sauce, then one more layer of cheese and pepperoni on that. With this stone you can make a wonderful, layered pizza that you can never do on an ordinary pie pan or stone. Just marvelous!

Average Reviews:

Nice knife. I had a Cuisinart, but the switch became defective after a few years of use, so I bought a replacement --- different model number (CEK-40), but essentially the same. It died (same switch problem) after my initial use --- just trying it out. Amazon, of course, took it back without any hassle. So I got the Wolfgang Puck knife --- had to wait a bit, as it was announced but not released. The blades seem a bit long to me, but that is minor. It works perfectly, and looks really solid. I've used it about a dozen times by now, mostly carving roasted chicken.

Ideal for holiday entertaining, everyday dinners, barbecues, and more, this sleek electric carving knife offers simplicity and ease of use unmatched by traditional manual knives. The unit features two interchangeable stainless-steel blades specially designed to cut foods horizontally--a thickly serrated blade that slices effortlessly through frozen foods and a finer-toothed blade designed to portion turkey, roast beef, ham, venison, and other meats as desired--from thin slices to thick, juicy cuts. Alternately, use the industrious knife to cut quickly through hard cheeses, create perfectly uniform slices of freshly baked bread, or slice effortlessly through hard-shelled watermelon and gourds. Equipped with a cushy grip for safety and comfort, the unit's patented rotary handle allows for cutting at four different angles, which eliminates the effort often required to cut around bones to get at that last bit of meat. Additional highlights include double safety switch operation, convenient handle-mount controls, and a small, compact design that stashes neatly in a drawer or cabinet when not in use. The electric carving knife measures approximately 11-2/5 by 3-1/2 by 5-2/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Architec Gripperwood Sheesham Cutting Board, 12 by 16-Inch Review

Architec Gripperwood Sheesham Cutting Board, 12 by 16-Inch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Just received the cutting board, so this is not a review of the board's functionality, but rather its appearance. The smaller size of this cutting board had 4 reviews, all of which gave 5 stars, so I was excited about receiving this product. My response to seeing it for the first time was mixed. While it made of a very attractive wood, the workmanship was somewhat disappointing. I did not expect there to be an obvious spot of wood putty filling in the porousness of a knot in the wood. Not only was it very evident that it was a wood putty patch, it had not been sanded down properly and was a bit rough on its surface. While it was located on the periphery of the board and probably won't interfere with its functionality, it was still disappointing. I will probably keep the board because I don't want to go through the hassle of returning it and I don't expect the putty to keep the board from doing its job.

This George Foreman works fine and is fairly easy to clean, But the picture of it holding 5 hamburgers is a bit of a stretch. At best you can put 3 store bought patties. If you make your own patties, and they are small you will get five on the grill. The bun warmer will handle 2 buns at a time and then you have to overlap the pieces to get the plastic lid down.

Marcato 8308 Atlas Grain Mill Review

Marcato 8308 Atlas Grain Mill
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The current version of this mill has aluminum rollers. Prior versions of this mill from the same manufacturer had steel rollers. Putting aluminum rollers on a grain mill is dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb!
As someone who cares enough about whole foods to buy and regularly use a grain mill, I want something that will stand up over time and something that won't add undesirable byproducts to my food. With aluminum rollers, this mill won't meet either of these criteria. Aluminum is a soft metal. Grain kernels are hard -- including oats. Aluminum rollers will take a beating over time. More importantly, I don't want microscopic bits of aluminum in my food.
I think the change from steel to aluminum was made fairly recently. Prior reviewers may well have mills with steel rollers. It's hard to imagine why the manufacturer decided that such a change was a good idea, particularly when most likely purchasers of the product are extremely health-conscious. I don't like to write 1-star reviews, but in its current design, this mill is just not suitable for use.
I've sent it back, very disappointed. I'm going to try the Schnitzer Campo mill (not yet available on Amazon) and see if that works out better.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a typical Chinese low-quality product. I would love it if it were of decent quality.
This is the roughest blade hinge I have ever experienced. The blade grinds and balks when it is opened or closed. I don't believe I have ever felt such a rough knife hinge. It is even worse than a knife that has been dropped in sand. The blade is decent when new, but is poorly sharpened and dulls quickly, especially where it contacts a cutting board. The corkscrew does work smoothly and seems well-finished. They missed a good design opportunity on the corkscrew by not fitting a folding projection to make it a waiter's corkscrew. Nobody likes the brute-force corkscrews, you know. Many people can't even use them. Leverage is a wonderful thing.
The only good thing I can say about this knife is that it is pretty until you use it. It would make a nice gift for someone you knew would not use it, or know the difference.

I bought this brand of toaster bags (from a different retailer), and the first time I used them, one of the bags melted, making a decent-sized hole.
