DeLonghi DTT720 2-Slice Toaster Review

I am amazed at all the reviews for toasters on Amazon. I am not alone out here trying to find one that works on a regular basis. I too was tired of buying a new cheap toaster every year or so and getting poor results. I decided to go for a more expensive unit and picked this Delonghi. First, be aware that the toaster I received has a huge black "Delonghi" printed on the surface below the buttons. It takes up almost the length of the toaster. I chose the unit for its clean look and this is really distracting. As with the cheap toasters, it does not toast both sides of the bread evenly. Is there any toaster that does? On the second use, the electronic toast darkness setting stopped working. When you plug in the toaster, it resets to 3. You could go down to 2 or 1 but then you could not go up again. You can unplug it and get back to 3 but there was no way to get it to 4, 5 or 6. The other issue I found with it is if you set something on the counter and just barely tap the toast button, it will start toasting. I must have set it off three times when I set groceries on top of the counter and I was not even aware it was toasting until I burned my hand on the surface. It is going back today.

With its sleek design and brushed metal housing, this two-slice toaster not only looks great in any contemporary kitchen, but it also toasts bread to crispy perfection. The unit's extra-wide, extra-long toasting slots accommodate various types of bread including bagels, buns, and muffins, while its self-adjusting grips center the bread to ensure even results both front and back. To use, simply add one or two pieces of bread and make a selection from the push-button control panel. The unit automatically lowers the bread for toasting, then, just as smoothly, raises it up at the end of the cycle--no popping up involved. Functions include "defrost" for items like frozen waffles, "bagel" for toasting just one side, "warm" for keeping previously toasted items warm without burning, and "cancel" for ending the cycle at any time. Other highlights include an LED countdown display to monitor the stages of toasting, an audible signal that indicates when there's just eight seconds before the end of the cycle, an auto keep-warm function that drops toast down after eight seconds of being left in the toaster, and a removable warming rack for croissants, blueberry muffins, and other baked goods. The 800-watt toaster measures approximately 10-4/5 by 6-2/3 by 7-2/3 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Wilton Gingerbread House Comfort Grip Cookie Cutter Review

Wilton Gingerbread House Comfort Grip Cookie Cutter

I love the comfort grip cutters for two reasons - they don't bend out of shape and are comfortable even when making hundreds of cookies (yes I make that many). The down side is you can't bend the cookie cutters if you need a shape you don't have.

Cutco Essentials Set with 1649 #1845 Review

Cutco Essentials Set with 1649 #1845

We have owned Cutco steak knives, paring knives,
a Chef knive, a bread knife, a carving knife set,
and others for many, many years. I had never sent
any of them in for their free sharpening service.
The Chef knife finally got a chip on the tip, and
the special cutting edge of the steak knives was
wearing down, so I decided that it was time to
send these knives in for "repair" and sharpening.
I did have to pay shipping to send the knives there,
and $8.00 to have knives shipped back. To my delight,
Cutco decided the knives were worn enough to be replaced
with brand new knives. This was a total of 9 knives that
were replaced. Cutco truly does stand by their product for
life.
I have other family members who have owned Henckels knives,
but Henckels didn't have the special edge that Cutco has on their
steak knives and many others. My family now owns Cutco, and can't
imagine having anything else. We are sold on Cutco!

Ever wished you had just a few more feet of countertop space when you're baking?Mixing bowls, cookie sheets and utensils can take up a lot of room very quickly, leaving little space for cooling racks when your baked goods come out of the oven.These stacking nonstick cooling racks overcome this challenge, creating a vertical cooling space that takes up less room than traditional racks. Connect the two racks with sturdy snap-on legs and you're ready to go.Nonstick coating provides easy release of baked goods after they've cooled.Use separately or together for cooling more baked goods while taking up less space.Set includes two 11x17 cooling racks and four snap-on legs.

Since receiving my tortilla maker last week, I have already made corn tortillas and whole wheat tortillas made with freshly ground flour. Both were absolutely delicious. The instruction book was accurate and complete and produced perfect tortillas every time. The tortilla maker seems to be well made and I expect it to last a long time. I am a very satisfied customer!

Tramontina Professional Series Cutlery Set with Block 7-pc. Review

I've had this knife set for 5 years and I still love it. The knives more than hold their own against much more expensive ones, and are immensely well suited for serious prep work. True story: I took the chef's knife to a "knife skills" cooking class at the local culinary school, and the teacher absentmindedly picked it up and began using it instead of her (fabulous and expensive) Wustoff model. After she used my knife for several demonstrations she realized her mistake and remarked how much she liked using it. When I told her how inexpensive it was, she was stunned. As with any good knives, you do need to take care of these by using the steel regularly to maintain the edge, and they should be professionally sharpened every year or two. Also, they should be washed by hand (soak them for a few minutes in hot soapy water, and they'll clean right up). You simply can't do better for the money with these knives and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

Dualit 2-Slice Toaster, Charcoal Review

Dualit 2-Slice Toaster, Charcoal
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm the ultimate kitchen fanatic. A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and sometime professional chef, I know and want for myself the very best products that I can find. The Dualit definitely qualifies in that category. I've used one in my home for many years. When I was burgled recently, the toaster was one of the items taken. A thief with good taste!
The poor babies who complain that they cannot make good toast with a Dualit either have defective machines (rare, but all things are possible) or they are hopelessly inept. Week after week I produce slice after slice of perfect, evenly browned toast.
The Dualit is a superbly engineered, wonderfully crafted simple machine. It does precisely what you ask it to do; nothing more, nothing less.
If you have an appreciation for genuine quality and a palate that enjoys nicely toasted bread, this is the toaster you want.
