I am using this container (40 Cup Airtight Container with Handle by Snapware) as a flour bin. If careful, I can get half of a 25 pound bag of flour in one 40 cup container so I use 2 per bag. It is easy to open and easy to clean. The handle is nice, too. I think it is a plus that it is made in the USA. I have one Lock & Lock container (the bread loaf size) and it is easier to line up and snap down the lid on the Snapware.

Natural Wood Kitchen Cart with Breakfast Bar Review

Natural Wood Kitchen Cart with Breakfast Bar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased one of these a couple of years ago. It has provided much more than I could have asked for the price paid.

My kitchen is rather small with little work space. I needed a place to knead bread and do other things but also needed it to roll out of the way when not needed. This island turned out to be perfect. It does require a bit of assembly. Took me about 90 minutes. The result was a handsome & functional island in unfinished rubberwood. You can finish it with most stains or wood finishes but I would recommend leaving the countertop unfinished. More sanitary & easier to keep clean. (Yes, handled properly, wood is every bit as sanitary as plastic, stone, or metal. Keep ALL liquids off of it!)
It's sturdy enough for hard kitchen use. I have pounded meat on it (on a cutting board) and beat bread dough to death. I have also used it as an impromptu breakfast bar & even rolled it onto the patio to use as a dry bar once. Worked wonderfully. But it really shines as a place to slice. dice, chop & mix. And it's the best bread board I've ever had. (NOTE: DO NOT USE A KNIFE ON THE WOOD!! Put a cutting board down to protect the surface.) It even holds 3 separate, operating machines (bread machine, slow cooker, & my large Kitchen-Aid stand mixer)& still leaves a good working area. The back leaf folds down & reduces the storage space when you need to roll it out of the way.
The only shortcomings (and they are minor) is the depth of the storage. The cabinets are not deep enough to store large pans. Youcan get two 1 gal. water/milk jugs back to back & that's about it. Also the drawers are too short & too shallow to store long items like ladles, cooking spoons, & butcher knives. A silverware tray won't fit. Also when assembling, stagger the 2 lockable wheels on opposite corners. Otherwise the island will pivot when pushed.
If you need working space for a small kitchen & don't want spend big bucks, this is the island to buy. After seeing mine & how I use it, several friends bought one too.

S/S Spice Container Review

S/S Spice Container

I recently ordered these spice tins -- 4 sets. What I received was 4 tins. When you look at this set and read the description, "12 pc s/s spice tins," you think you are getting a set of 4 tins per order, right? Wrong. I got one tin per order. Someone must have done a poor job describing this item, because it is not the set pictured nor described. The tins are nice, but they are a push on/off lid that I'm afraid will soon loosen. I wish they were screw on/off instead. The shipping was so costly that I kept them, but I am going to make some noise about this order.

Vitamix Tritan Copolyester 32-Ounce Container with Dry Blade, Lid, and Recipe Book Review

Vitamix Tritan Copolyester 32-Ounce Container with Dry Blade, Lid, and Recipe Book
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm a huge Vitamix fan and have used one for many years. Mine didn't come with a dry blade container so I purchased one separately more recently. There's no question that it does a great job with coffee and whole grains, but the regular container works fine for some of those things, too. Recently I started grinding my own grains for bread on occasion. For example, I couldn't find sunflower seed flour so bought some kernels and made my own. I found the regular container made this flour meal just as well as this dry blade container did. Both were fast and effective. The regular container also made wheat flour, powdered sugar and other nut flours just fine. This container did a better job with coffee however.
Then, as long as I was experimenting, I decided to make my morning smoothie in this smaller container, and voila, it worked great, so I've been using this small one more for smaller quantities of things than because the blade is different.
All in all, I'm healthier because of the Vitamix which has proven its worth many times over. I like having the second smaller container and use it regularly, but not necessarily for dry processing since both blade types seem to handle the majority of things. I haven't used the recipe book (which didn't come with my container when I bought it some time ago) so I can't speak to that, but I do believe the container itself is a nice addition to my Vitamix, though not a requirement. One last note: the regular tamper also works with this container because of the tamper's graduated size and this container's smaller plug size.

Designed specifically for grinding grains with the Vita-Mix appliance, this large 32-ounce dry-blade container can be used as a replacement jar or a second jar. The see-through unit allows for keeping an eye on the process, while its hardened stainless-steel blades quickly and thoroughly grind. In addition to grinding fresh flour, it can also be used to grind beans, rice, and soybeans into flour for gluten-free recipes. A recipe book comes included. The container's drip-free spout ensures graceful pouring, and its raised calibrations make it easy to measure in ounces, cups, or metrics. The included two-part locking lid offers a secure spill-proof fit, removes easily, and vents to allow hot or cold food to expand and contract. The lid also supplies a removable measuring cap for adding ingredients during operation. Furthermore, the unit's made from Eastman Tritan copolyester material, which makes it virtually unbreakable, BPA-free, and more chemical resistant. The 32-ounce container measures 7-1/2 by 9 by 13-1/2 inches and carries a full five-year warranty.

I actually bought one of these racks at Lowes a while back for about the same price. It is just great. I lived in a small apartment and this rack seem to double the storage of my kitchen. I filled the bottom shelves with wicker baskets and was able to store pots and pans, plastic containers and many more kitchen items. It's so much better than kitchen drawers. You can store a ton of plastic containers and lids in the baskets and have easy access to them. You can hang utensils for easy access. I use the top shelf for storing tea boxes, candles and small items. In addition to all the storage you have another 3 feet of hardwood (mine is oak) counter space for preparing food. If you live with a small kitchen this rack is an instant remodel. I can't say enough about this rack. It's great.

BPA Free Snapware 38 Piece Airtight Plastic Storage Container Set Review

BPA Free Snapware 38 Piece Airtight Plastic Storage Container Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I already owned a set of Snapware, but when I saw this set at the local big box store (rhymes with "bosco") I couldn't resist.
Snapware is airtight and leakproof, made from polypropylene, made in the USA, and has a lifetime warranty. They've been making square boxes for years, but this set is finally targeted at the lunchbox set. Wonderful.
From smallest to largest:
- The "mini-bowls" (red gasket) hold four ounces, about the same size as a pudding cup. They'll also do well for dipping sauces.
- The mini squares (reddish purple gasket) are 4"x4" and 2" deep. Good for desserts.
- The shallow small rectangles (blue-green gasket) are 4"x6", and also 2" deep. Good for carrot sticks and such. The deep small rectangles are the same size (and share lids) and are 4.5" deep - perfect for sandwiches (packed on edge).
- The shallow medium rectangles (purple gasket) are 6"x8", and also 2" deep. The right size for a folded tortilla or cut pita bread, or an oversized sandwich. The deep medium rectangles are the same size but 4.5" deep.
- The divided medium rectangles are the same size and depth as the shallow medium rectangles (and will share lids with them, and with the deep medium rectangles). They're designed for a sandwich and snack - there is a square bread-sized hole, and a smaller hole next to it.
- The small bowl isn't so small - about 3.5 cups. It has a domed lid, and cries out for a salad.
- The two large rectangles (dark blue gasket) are very large - more like lunchboxes than lunch boxes. I would use the shallower one for a dozen small cupcakes, and you could probably fit an entire small loaf of bread in the deep one. They share lids, and one of those lids has a handle in it for your convenience.
Since the boxes are designed to nest, and since they share lids between different depths, these boxes will take up considerably less space in your kitchen than other similar boxes. They are remarkably well designed. The only thing I would change about this set is to add a couple of deep mini squares - I use those for packing apples and pears, and they're indispensable.
Recommended.

Average Reviews:

Got these at a Target store nearby, rather than online. This is a really good value, as the same products (not even including the scoops) would cost over $28 if purchased separately.
The large 120 oz holds a 5 lb bag of flour, and I've been looking for a while for a convenient, attractive container for that. I will be stocking up on these to do my whole pantry.
The one-handed, one-motion snap lid is a life-saver, especially if you have kids in the house. If it's not quick and simple, it just doesn't get closed up at my house. With these containers, it only takes a quick smack and it's closed up tight. So convenient, even the 15 year old will do it (I can't tell you how many stale "reclosable bags" of stuff I've thrown away).
For me, these are awesome. I would highly recommend them.

Made of see-through shatterproof Flexiglass, this 10-piece dry-food canister set provides an oxygen barrier 40 times greater than other plastics to keep moisture and air out. The square-shaped stain- and odor-resistant containers come with convenient snap-lock lids fitted with a special silicone seal to ensure airtight storage. The set includes a 120-ounce container that measures 5-1/2 by 4-3/4 by 10-3/4 inches, holding up to 15 cups worth of cereal, chips, flour, or rice; two 64-ounce containers, each measuring 5-1/2 by 4-3/4 by 8-1/2 inches and holding up to 10 cups of sugar, crackers, or cookies; and two 32-ounce containers, each measuring 4-1/4 by 3-3/4 by 6-1/4 inches and holding up to 4 cups of candy, trail mix, nuts, or coffee. A 1/2-cup scoop, 1/3-cup scoop, and a 1/4-cup scoop are also included. The containers can go in the freezer or refrigerator, but should not be used in a microwave or placed near hot surfaces above 120 degrees F. To remove the lid for cleaning, snap open and unscrew the top. The containers and lids should be hand washed only and dried with a soft towel or left to air dry.

Tupperware Modular Mates Rectangular 2 Container in Red Passion Review

Tupperware Modular Mates Rectangular 2 Container in Red Passion
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently replaced my decorative-but-inefficient canisters with a set of Tupperware Modular Mates, and I couldn't be happier. They are a nice weight/thickness, and the lids seal easily. I wanted containers big enough to store an entire package (ie. a 5lb bag of sugar, etc), with enough space for a bit extra (so I didn't have to run out completely before restocking, and to allow some room to level a measure over the container). Initially I was going with all rectangles, but found myself wanting a square for brown sugar as the Rectangle 2 just seemed too huge (while the Rectangle 1 just seemed too shallow).
In case the amounts might help someone else make a decision, I currently have:
5lbs+ (probably 7-8lbs?) of all-purpose flour in a Rectangle 3
5lbs of bread flour in a Rectangle 2
5lbs+ (6-7lbs?) of sugar in a Rectangle 2
1lb+ (1.5lbs?) of brown sugar in a Square 2

I like this canister quite well, but I have one small gripe. I keep flour in it, and scoop the flour out of it with a stainless steel measuring cup. I'd like to be able to level the top of the measuring cup by scraping the excess flour off on the top of the canister opening, but the openings oval shape won't allow me to level off the measuring cup square with its top (I end up with a heaping cup full, rather than a level cup full). I'm thinking about buying a 6 inch straight edge and attaching that to the opening, but it would be nice if tupperware just molded the top of the opening straight.

When I had to explain to a store clerk what a brioche was, I knew finding a pan to bake one in was going to be a challenge. I finally found a 6-cup as well as 6 individual brioche pans online at Amazon. They came in a timely manner and I have enjoyed several recipes of brioche. The sturdy but lightweight pan allows the bread to bake evenly and golden, and slides out of the pan easily. Cleanup is easy -- just pop into the dishwasher. Highly recommended.

Linden Sweden Twixit Clip Bag Sealers, Set of 27 Assorted Review

Linden Sweden Twixit Clip Bag Sealers, Set of 27 Assorted
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I discovered clips for plastics bags when I lived in Stockholm for several months during 1987. About ten years ago, I found this Swedish brand -- Twixit -- here in the U.S. and bought a couple of packages. I've been using them ever since for any number of things and I'd hate to do without them. They make a tight seal -- the small clips are great for bags you twist and clip, such as bread bags or the ones fresh carrots come in. The largest ones work nicely on the plastic bags inside cereal boxes. One of my favorite things is buying those inexpensive plastic bags that don't have any kind of built-in closures (1 gallon capacity) and come with those annoying twist-ties with the wire up the middle of the plastic strip. With these clips, those cheap plastic bags are way more versatile than the expensive ones with a "zip" closure.
The largest ones will even close a papery bag of Pepperidge Farm cookies tightly -- and nothing else I know of will do that well.
They not only seal tightly, but they last for a very long time. All my original clips still work, but I have enough of them in use now that I needed to buy some more and the place I got them from before no longer sells them. I also needed more of the smallest size because I use more of them than the medium and large clips. So finding them here was a godsend.
Leave to the Swedes to come up with something as practical and as excellent as these clips!

This bread box is the 3rd one I have purchased in 5 years. The first 2 were hard to keep clean and were oversized in height. When you have a lot of bread to store, there is always toast on the menu. Where there is toast, there is butter. This low-profile brushed chrome box holds 2 full sized loaves of bread and leaves NO FINGERPRINTS like some of the stainless steel or glass front boxes. I also found this to be the most aesthetically appealing bread box since it coordinated with my toaster and coffee maker. So far, my bread likes its new home!
