SPT 18-Inch Portable Dishwasher, Stainless Steel

SPT 18-Inch Portable Dishwasher, Stainless Steel

So far, well above expectations.... and it's super quiet!
I had a Danby countertop dishwasher that I used for about 4 years and I loved it. I despise doing dishes so these portable dishwashers are a godsend for me as I am still renting and I don't have the option of a conventional built in dishwasher. I ended up getting a new dish set about a year ago, but unfortunantly because the set has square plates, the larger plates did not fit in the countertop. I had to angle them in a weird way and it was just a hassel..... So I finally decided to get a new, bigger dishwasher that I was hoping would be able to accomodate my square plates.

Enter the SPT dishwasher.... I was a little skepticle buying a dishwasher from A) A brand I was not too familiar with, and B) One that did not have any reviews yet. Well, after using it for a few days, I am in love with this thing. It looks great, much better than the old Danby countertop, and it sits at the perfect height with my counters. The power cord and the water hoses having a storage...

Better than ever expected.
* Update 10/01/12 * All changes will have a " * " : Still just as good, an excellent dishwasher. I use the "speed" setting for everything with Cascade all-in-one tablets in the holder [basket] all the time and a 65 min wash is just as good as the all-in-one 2:10 wash for almost everything including 3 day dried chili pots and bowls. I do put the tablets in the door holder when using any other setting. If you need "dry" dishes use the normal setting. If you can crack the door and wait a few minutes the speed setting is just fine. Heavy setting pulled rust off old hand tools using two tablets and vinegar.

* Do: Clean the filter every two weeks or after lots of vegetable matter. A simple rinse in the sink is just fine. Takes about a minute.

* Gray water usage: The discharged soap and water can be used to clean parts that will not fit in the dishwasher. I use the gray water from the dishwasher (by stopping the sink or a 5 gal bucket in the sink) to remove carbon from...

Great little unit
I initially received the wrong color dishwasher but the seller fixed the issue very promptly and was very courteous.

The dishwasher itself is great, it is very quiet and cleans well. The only issue is I wish that some of the prongs were further apart so that we could fit some fatter items into the dishwasher (pot lids etc.). The dishwasher is a great size for our small kitchen, it wheels around well and the stainless steel inside is great. So far there have been no problems!

300 Series 24 '' Recessed Handle Dishwasher Finish: Black

300 Series 24 '' Recessed Handle Dishwasher Finish: Black

I'm truly impressed!
There are two nearly identical models. This one (SHE43R5XUC) and the SHE43RFXUC. They look identical except that the rightmost button is labelled differently, because each has a cycle the other lacks. This one ("5") has a half-load cycle whereas the other ("F") has an express cycle (for glassware and lightly soiled plates to be reused at the same party).

I have an "F". I never thought I'd be writing a review for a dishwasher, but I'm truly impressed.

I picked this unit for what might seem the strangest of reasons. We needed a black unit with racks that, unlike the unit it was replacing, would hold fragile dishes in place and not allow them to clatter and ship. Most important, we needed a unit that someone with weak hands could open easily. In a trip to a local superstore, this was the only unit that satisfied all of the requirements. It was surprising how many units were NOT easy to open with weak hands.

I don't use a dishwasher frequently...

Really cleans dishes!!
I had two Maytag's over the last 10 years and since I heard so many good things about Bosch dishwashers I decided to buy one. I always had a couple dishes in the Maytag that never got cleaned, but not the Bosch. I have put some pretty dirty pots in there and they came out spotless! One thing that is really nice is the solid bottom and the fact that you can adjust the height of the back from the front with a screw driver so installation is pretty easy. It also is super quiet when running. I would reccomend a Bosch over any other dishwasher!

Flawless! Quiet, Clean, Easy to Operate!!!
I bought this dishwasher about 6 months ago from a big box home store. I had to have a model in black finish because our refrigerator, range, and microwave all have a black finish. The second requirement was that the unit must be quiet because I was tired of our old dishwasher being so loud! We also have two small children and the buttons on this dishwasher are on the top of door and out of the way. The children are now unable to press buttons!

+ Beautiful Easy to Wipe Clean Finish.
+ One Touch Operation, Just Press Power and Close the Door! No more spinning dials or pressing many buttons.
+ Buttons "Hidden" Away at the Top of the Door, Keeps Curious Hands Away - Open the Door Slightly to Expose Buttons.
+ No More Locking/Unlocking the Door, Just Push it Closed or Pull it to Open!
+ Did I Mention Quiet? This dishwasher is unbelievable. The loudest point in the cycle is when it is draining you can hear water. That's about it.
+ Has a red light that...

a real 5 star alternative to coin-op machines


Exactly what I needed!
First off, I have to preface this by saying I have purchased the Wonder Washer and was greatly disappointed. This thing is a 100x better than the Wonder Washer. I own both and could not believe I wasted my money on the other washer. My needs were simple - a small washer that could wash normal items like jeans, sheets, pillow cases, bath towels... you name it. This is the washer that can do it. If you are living in a small apartment or are on a budget and are tired of schlepping clothes to the laundry every week or the endless hunt for quarters - this is for you.

The washer is the perfect size to sit on a counter top. I put mine on my kitchen counter next to the sink when I need to do the laundry. The washer is actually fairly lightweight and comes with an easy carry handle, so moving it is not difficult. It also has a top fill hole with a hose. I strongly recommend swapping the hose it comes with with a REAL hose. Go to your local aquarium supply or hardware store...

I love it!!!
I was very hesitant to purchase the machine, especially since there were no reviews yet on amazon. I was leaning towards buying the electric wonder washer but it only held about 2 pounds of clothes. Since this panda machine held 5 pounds, I decided to cross my fingers and go for this one. I just received it and have only done about 4 loads in it and I'm very impressed. The machine is made of good materials, alot of dirt comes out of the clothes, and the smelled very nice and looked clean coming out. You can fit quite alot of clothes in there too like 8 t-shirts and a bunch of undergarmets, and pajamas or a couple pairs of jeans and shirts.

In the instructions, after the wash cycle (that can be set anywhere between a minute-15 minutes depending on how soiled the clothes are ), it recommends that you wash the clothes with plain water for a rinse cycle but I found it to be quicker to just throw the clothes in the bathtub and rinse while I was doing the next load in the...

Black & Decker RC436 16-Cup Rice Cooker, White

Black & Decker RC436 16-Cup Rice Cooker, White

Follow the instructions! (updated)
This rice cooker works perfectly if you just follow its instructions. Ignore other reviewers' advice to follow instructions on the rice package and their complaints that it sprays slime all over your kitchen. The first is what causes the second. It sprays only if you use too much water, but if you follow the cooker's instructions (which use much less water than the rice's own instructions), the most mess you will ever get will be at the lid's vent hole - nowhere else.

I have made many batches using the maximum seven cups of uncooked rice, and the results have been perfect rice with no mess beyond the lid itself (which is NOT hard to wash, by the way) each time. It's true that the rice gets slightly toasty on the bottom of the pot, but practically all rice cookers do that, and the toasty part tastes good anyway.

UPDATE:

I am copying a comment here that I posted originally under another review and then copied under most of the other reviews that complain...

Good rice, but kind of messy
My Salton rice cooker finally gave out after 8 years of use, and I replaced it with the Black & Decker Rice Cooker Plus. The good points are it is quite easy to use and can cook rice quite well. The disappointment to me is the cleanup.

Having used the Salton, I am accustomed to the starchy steam these types of cookers produce but I find this cooker to be messier than my Salton was. It "spits" all over its top, handles and even the surrounding coutertop are and floor (I have to line with paper towels to catch some of the sputter). I've tried rinsing the rice first and the performance was the same.

It is a big plus that the rice container itself is nonstick, but the lid takes some scrubbing, not just a light wash. I suppose this is a good value for the price I paid (under $30), but I think I may be upgrading soon to avoid that sticky mess.

I like it! Good little rice cooker.
I bought one of these because I was not happy with the Aroma plastic rice cooker that I was using.

The Aroma always burned the rice at the bottom, and the warm setting was way too hot and would continue to cook the food.

It also was made in such a way that the lid was not detachable, and therefore you couldn't clean it.

Take my word for it, when cooking rice or other things (rice cookers do a fantastic job with steel cut oatmeal BTW) food has a tendency to foam up during cooking and the steam and food particles rise up towards the vent on top.

If you have a rice cooker with a non-detachable lid, food particles get trapped up there and you can't get them out.

So when you cook a new batch of rice, the old particles can migrate down into your food. It's unsanitary.

FYI: A teaspoon of vegetable oil will help with foaming.

At least with this type of cooker, the lid is like a crockpot lid and can be put in the...

the worst case of company abuse
the reason for the 1 star is not because the machine is bad but the company, universal mania delivered it damamged and dented. after notifying them and lodging my complaint, they said that i dropped the machine. little did they realize that the dents were from the inside protruding out. if i had dropped the machine the dented part would have faced inward. in addition, the machine leaked because the hose was disconnected from the inside.i trouble shot this myself and reattached the hose correctly. their customer dis-service was the worst i have ever experienced. it was very obvious that their delivery people had tossed this machine around in their truck. i wrote a letter to the president and he too went on to say that i dropped the machine. i live on the ground floor and the chances of me knocking this thing over are zero to nil.they obviously have no integrity and if the president accuses you too, there is something seriously wrong. spread the word and do not purchase anything from...

No to any Aventi products
The washer was delivered on May 14, 2012. Used only for fifteen days and broke. As per instruction manual, I contacted the manufacturer (Aventi). Aventi said it wasn't their responsibility and referred me back to the seller. The seller and Aventi tossed me around and finally Aventi agreed to send a repair man for my washer. At first Aventi gave me a repair service in my area but the repair service never contacted me. I contacted Aventi, got the service man phone number and contacted him myself. From the answering machine, the service man is out for "family emergency". Aventi didn't aware the situation and insisted I should wait for the service man to contact me. I requested for a different service agency and Aventi said it will put my name back from the list and had me wait for several days. It took Aventi more than two weeks to sent a service man to my house to service the washer. June 11, 2012, it was determined that a piece of equipment will need to replace and the...

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!
I bought this washer at the end of January. The lid lock went out at the end of March. I was told by Avanti that no parts will be in the United States for this washer until June. They have agreed to try and air freight my part and have it here by the end of April (maybe). The dealer called Avanti and got the same answer. The dealer is not willing to take further action. This washer is still being sold. No one is willing to pull the part from another washer. I have had two Chinese washers. Both have problems getting parts. I will buy a more reputable washer next time.

Hunter 21628 Palermo 52-Inch 5-Blade Ceiling Fan, Brushed Bronze with Black and Walnut Blades

Hunter 21628 Palermo 52-Inch 5-Blade Ceiling Fan, Brushed Bronze with Black and Walnut Blades

Great fan, tricky install
Amazon shipped this item me very quickly and I installed it just today. Installation with this fan was trickier than others I had installed. There were too many screws, literally...I had screws left over and I followed the instructions precisely. The install took about 2 hours.

The fan is very quiet, and the light is sufficient. I wish the light could dim, but I knew it couldn't going into it. I'd check the Hunter website and make sure the blades co-ordinate with your existing decor...the website shows the true colors more accurately than Amazon's pictures.

Not recommended!
Let me preface this with two items. First, I remodel homes as a hobby and have installed many fans in the past. Second, I have used Hunter products in several previous projects and been happy with them. I don't know what has happened at Hunter, but everything about their products have gone downhill. The instructions are horrible. One example, the drawing of many of the screws do not match what comes with the fan. It almost seems like the assembly instructions were done in another country. On the subject of parts - some were missing. The overall assembly design is also terrible. Finally, the quality of the fan is poor. The remote control is made of crappy plastics and is intermittent. I am so put off by this fan that I gave it away and will never buy another Hunter product.

I absolutely LOVE Amazon and will continue to use them, but I would not recommend buying this type of item from them. Why? Because by the time you realize what a piece of crap this item is...

Many problems with coming on by itself - junk
I just want to update my review - this fan wasn't working at first, it would come on several times a day by itself, either the light or the fan itself. Hunter sent me out a new part, but that didn't fix it. I called again, and they sent out another part - now the fan is working great now. It's been two full weeks and hasn't come on by itself, so I think it's fixed! The customer service was excellent.

I like the more "modern" look of this fan.

I've raised my "stars" rating to 4 since it is working now. It's not a 5 because of the initial problem, and one other design issue I don't like. The way the glass is installed over the light, it's very difficult to take off, as the metal ring with three screws in it holds the glass and needs to be removed, but you need to hold the glass at the same time. It's almost a two person job (on ladders!) to remove this, or you risk dropping the glass. Of course with a fluorescent light - I won't need to remove this very...

Avanti AC/DC Superconductor Refrigerator, Model# SHP1712SDC

Avanti AC/DC Superconductor Refrigerator, Model# SHP1712SDC

Decent
The fridge arrived with several large dents as other reviewers have mentioned they only include 1/4 inch of Styrofoam for packaging. It also would not turn on... upon further inspection I could see the internal AC hot and common connections were disconnected so I opened it up and plugged those back in.

I put a remote temperature sensor in the fridge and let it cool to 32 degrees (cold as it will get on high) then put a 20 oz pop bottle in that was full of 80F degree water. It took 3 hours to cool to below 40 degrees and it actually warmed the air temp of the fridge up to 42 at one point. If you put a lot of room temp stuff in there I imagine it would take at least 24 hours to cool it all.

Pros:
-Lightweight (really easy to move it only weighs like 23 pounds)
-Efficient (pulls less than 100 watts and keeps stuff cold)
-AD/DC modes is nice
-No moving parts except for heatsink fan and coldsink fan.
-Lots of space, due to the lightweight...

Avanti AC/DC Rerigerator
I have used this fridge once in my new custom goat trailer with living quarters. Worked very well on DC power in the trailer and AC in the house for a test run. My only complaint is that the product was dented when shipped. We determined the dents would not effect operation and therefore not worth sending back to manufacturer. The unit runs fine, just the housing was dinged.

Like everyone said...
Just received our Avanti fridge for one of our truck drivers. Like everyone said, it came with some dented corners and beat up box but it seems to work fine in the house on an A/C test run. For the price, seems like a great little fridge. We'll see how it holds up to the highway miles.

This Avanti refrigerator provides 1.7 cu. ft. of refrigeration capacity with powerful, efficient superconductor cooling technology. Operates on 115V AC or 12V DC power with included 12V adapter.

Haier HLP21N 6.6-Pound Pulsator Wash with Stainless Steel Tub

Haier HLP21N 6.6-Pound Pulsator Wash with Stainless Steel Tub

What to know before you buy: capacity
I estimate that I have used this washer for 4 loads each week since buying from J&R in early October, 2006. I live in a studio in New York and bought this one because (1) it has a sink adapter, which the front-loading 14.3-lb model didn't seem to include and (2) at 17.5 inches wide/deep, it fit through my bathroom door, which the front-loading 14.3-lb model (at 20.5 inches wide) wouldn't.

Out of the box, you have to install an included metal pan at the bottom. Install it so that it is convex: there's a reason that the legs are so high. One of the problems I had during installation was that one of the screws holding this metal pan to the body comes very close to a clamp holding the gooseneck drain tube as it exits the body. The clamp had fallen out of position, and the end of the screw is close to where the clamp goes. I don't think I was ever in danger of puncturing the drainage tube, but it's something to watch out for.

You need a place to hang the drainage...

Good, very finicky, better than using the common
I've saved a lot of money using this rather than paying the apartment common wash fee. I would buy it again if nothing was better on the market, but there are a few cons that you should know about, and a few tips I'll share at the end of the review:

- You can't really leave the apartment while running it. The water outflow hose can come loose and water can dump into your bathroom. See tips.

- You can't run it at "high" water level. Leave it on "medium". My best guess is that the water sensor works like a "brita" filter -- it counts spins of a water-wheel to estimate the amount of water in the tub. This is not very accurate and on the "high" setting, the tank will overflow and dump water on the floor.

- It often requires intervention once during the wash cycle. It stops and reports an unbalanced load, which can start an endless fight to rebalance the wash. It's not an overfill issue -- it's a pure balance issue. This happens on 30% of my loads. See tips...

How did I live in New York City for ten years without this?
No seriously, how have I been living in apartments for a decade without this machine? Through single and couple-dom life, I've been dragging my clothes to the local (and not-so local) laundromat resulting in frantic minutes scrounging for quarters, two hours of boredom, whites slowly turning yellow in those questionable big machines and a less-than-enthused significant other. Sometimes, I would just give up and wash those needed socks or undershirt in the shower praying they would dry hung up overnight. It was one of those nights that I finally had had enough and the boy started scouring the internet for a solution.

This machine is *my* miracle of modern technology and has significantly improved my life in quantifiable hours - and I bet has saved me money in the long run (if you consider it's five dollars per `big' wash load at the laudromat, and they only have `big' load machines.)

At about 2 1/2 feet high and 17 inches wide, this machine easily plugs into a...

Haier's 1.0 cu. ft. compact Pulsator Washer provides the convenience of at-home laundry facilities for spaces where full-size machines are not an option. It is ideal for small apartments, mobile homes, and other places where space is limited. This model features a durable stainless steel tub and gives you a choice of Heavy, Normal, or Quick Wash cycles and Low, Medium, or High water levels for the perfect combination every time. The unit plugs into any standard household 120-Volt outlet and connects quickly and easily to any sink. Get the best fit with the included fill and drain hoses and Quick-Connect sink adapter. It also offers optimum portability since it can be easily rolled away for storage. All this plus quiet operation adds up to the ultimate in compact laundry solutions.

Small Yet Powerful

This easy-to-use, compact washer features a durable stainless steel tub and uses a pulsator system rather than a traditional agitator to create a powerful and effective wash action without the twisting and pulling that an agitator can cause. The absence of an agitator also frees up additional space in the wash tub to provide you with maximum wash load capacity. The pulsating action results in superb cleaning performance in a non-abrasive wash environment. It is gentler on clothes as well, making it excellent for items such as cloth diapers, baby clothes, and delicate.

Digital Controls

Choose from Heavy, Normal, or Quick Wash cycles and Low, Medium, or High electronically controlled water levels on a simple touch pad to get the perfect combination for your load every time. The electronic controls include a pause button should you need to interrupt the cycle for any reason, and a clear viewing window at the top lets you check on your laundry. LED indicator lights clearly display the cycle status, and an end-of-cycle signal alerts you when clothes are clean and ready to be removed.

Easy, No-Fuss Installation

This compact washer doesn’t just fit into small spaces; it connects quickly and easily to any sink. Get the best fit with the included fill and drain hoses and Quick Connect sink adapter. Because the unit plugs into any standard household 120-Volt outlet it can be used virtually anywhere in your living space—no need for specialized or complicated electrical connections. All this plus outstanding portability adds up to the ultimate in compact laundry solutions.

Haier HLP140E 2-3/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Tumble Vented Dryer

Haier HLP140E 2-3/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Tumble Vented Dryer

Independence!
I have only had this dryer for about 10 days now, but I'm very happy with it! There is one other review for this dryer and in it they say it takes a long time for the clothes to dry... this is true. But I think it's to be expected since this dryer can simply be plugged into any outlet unlike a normal dryer. So, smaller dryer... less power... longer drying time. The reason I'm giving this unit 5 stars is because if getting out the laundry mat is as important to you as it was to me, then the extra drying time is more than acceptable. Also, this dryer is VERY QUITE, simple to use and set up. For the first 5 loads I just had the machine sitting on the floor near a window - I didn't even have the hose out the window. It did get my apartment a little warm and humid (not since I've put the hose out the window of course), but I'm just making the point that it is very easy to set up.

How long does it take to dry clothes? I'm still trying to get all the drying times down myself. But...

well packaged and dries well.


Does what it's supposed to do in a convinent size!
I have a model of this I bought about a year ago--it looks slightly different than the one pictured here but has the same model number.

That said, this dryer is GREAT. It does take a while to dry clothes, but I got it to go along with the haier portable washer, and it dries one load in the time it takes another load to wash when I use the power wash setting, so that's pretty good.

However, the automatic settings really don't work that well--like a previous poster, I recommend using the timed dry options.

I also don't have the dryer vented to the outside--I instead purchased an indoor lint trap thing. I don't know that it really does much, but the dryer doesn't seem to release a lot of lint into my apartment. The dryer does add some heat and humidity to the apartment, but that's great in the fall/winter. Not so much in the summer, but it still beats having to go to the laundromat.

If you live in an apartment or somewhere that doesn't have...

GE GSD2100VBB 2100 24" Black Full Console Dishwasher - Energy Star

GE GSD2100VBB 2100 24" Black Full Console Dishwasher - Energy Star

Don't compare to more expensive models, and this one is great!
After comparing various dishwashers - from low-end, $200 models in a a "scratch and dent" sale to mid and upper range ($1500, which felt ridiculous), we settled on this model for a couple reasons. First, it was available to purchase from ABT which is one of the best places to buy appliances in the country even if you live a couple thousand miles away from their showroom. And second, its a very basic and very good priced machine.

Then, a few days after ordering, it got delivered. Arrived in perfect condition and was ready to be hooked up. Overall, hooking it up was very easy, but one of the reasons this gets 4 stars rather than 5 is because there's an elbow connector that you have to buy but it's not included. It's a $2 part. Other manufacturers do the same thing, but it's rather ridiculous - just include the thing! So, after a trip to Lowe's to get the elbow connector, everything hooked up easily and was ready to go! Note that it also doesn't come with a power cord,...

received GE instead of kitchenaid and am very happy
Amazon page is very messed up, so I ordered a kitchenaid dishwasher and got a GE. I am very happy with the GE. It is a simple machine, no bells and whistles and I did not get taken to the cleaners. The price was for the GE. I highly recommend this dishwasher as it is not noisy, but fairly quiet. Cleans really well and like I said simple to use

Not so Hot, Really
We have this unit in our home, and it was put in for us by the listing agent... It does not get that warm inside, so I have no idea how well it sanitizes the dishes. I can ope it on the hot cycle and grab a piece of silverware. If you have a dishwasher worth anything you should not be able to do this.

And it is odd to me that it does not hold as many dishes as a normal 24 inch machine, but the trays are not well designed especially the top tray.

I would not have bought this cheap thing, and I wish that they would have left the old 70s/80s model machine even though it did not match the other appliances.

Buy a better model.

Hamilton Beach 26030 Belgian Waffle Maker

Hamilton Beach 26030 Belgian Waffle Maker

Great Waffle Maker!
I have bought several waffle makers in my life. But this is by far, the best one yet! It is a new model. So, you probably haven't seen many reviews on it yet. So, I thought I would get the ball rolling. ;-) As of this review, I have used it twice, and both times, the waffles came out great -- light and tasty and with VERY LITTLE MESS! No "seasoning" needed! (If you don't know what that means, don't worry about it.)

One thing I recommend on ANY waffle maker is using "non-stick oil spray," REGARDLESS of the claims of "non-stick." There's non-stick, and there's NON-STICK! It NEVER HURTS to use the spray, and it ALWAYS ENSURES easy removal of the cooked waffle and easy cleaning in the dish washer.

I also love how the plates are easily removable and dishwasher safe and then pop right back into the machine. **Be sure that the plates are SECURELY back in their place, before turning on the machine!

Also, be sure to read the instruction manual for...

Hamilton Beach 26030 Review
I would like to say that I was looking all over amazon for a high quality single waffle iron that rotated like the ones in the hotels, had removable griddles for easy cleaning and would not scorch your waffles on a regular basis. I would like to say that this is by far the best waffle maker that I have ever owned. No matter what waffle recipe we have put in, if you set it around 2 and watch for the steam to stop coming from the side of the griddles you will have a perfect golden brown waffle. A note on the non-stick, so far they really mean non-stick. we have yet to have a waffle come out half stuck to the griddle. And my lovely lady has even forgotten to butter the griddles before a few waffles and it was never a problem. I will say that the first waffle is the most even in terms of golden brown. the consecutive waffles seem to be a little lighter towards the back of the unit. probably would even itself out if you were patient enough to let the irons even out in-between each...

Love It!
Love it, love it, love it!!! Since I have purchased this waffle maker, I have used it several times, and it's a breeze to use. I've used package mix as well as scratch recipes for waffles and they all have turned out great.

I have purchased several waffle makers in the past, and I don't care how carefully you prep your waffle iron, one waffle will ultimately stick and it's near impossible to get it completely out to clean because you can't get the iron wet or use something sharp to scrape the waffle out. With this iron the grids "POP OUT" and you can put them in the dishwasher or wash by hand for easy cleaning. I still prep the grids with a little olive oil in a small pump spray, but you could use a store bought spray if you prefer. You just need to use "something" regardless of the "non-stick" claims as it ensures easy removal of your cooked waffle.

I also like how the handle folds in for storage so you can keep it in a narrower space. It's a great machine, and...

Breakfast Trend On the Rise

Breakfast isn't called the most important meal of the day without good cause. Jumpstarting your day with a nutritious breakfast has shown to improve mental performance, give you energy and healthy carbohydrates, and help reduce mindless snacking. What's more, where breakfast is prepared and bought has changed over the years. Instead of traditional breakfast meals and times anymore, consumers are now having breakfast at all times of the day, reinterpreting breakfast foods in creative ways and cooking at home.

Simple Cleanup

The removable waffle grids are dishwasher safe. To clean the drip tray, rinse off excess overflowed batter with hot water. For easy cleanup and storage, wipe down the exterior with a damp, soapy cloth and fold the handle. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, abrasive cleansers or sharp or pointed objects on any part, as this will tarnish the steel exterior.

COOKING TIPS

Before pouring batter into grids, always spray them with a small amount of nonstick cooking spray. Waffle color and crispiness are determined by the temperature of the grids, so the higher the temperature, the browner and crisper the waffle. If the cover of the waffle maker doesn't lift up easily, let your waffle cook a little longer before lifting the lid again. To store waffles for later reheating, pack in airtight container and keep in the refrigerator or freezer.

Mix In Your Favorite Toppings & Spices

Don't care for plain waffles or need a snazzy new breakfast recipe? Tasting is believing with Hamilton Beach. To mix things up, reduce the amount of batter that you're using and stir one of these sweet treats into the batter before cooking:

• Chocolate
• Maple syrup
• Cinnamon sugar
• Fresh or dried fruit
• Pecans or walnuts

TIP: If using nuts in waffle batter, use chopped nuts and/or evenly spread batter to allow lid to fully close.

• Flip for thick, fluffy waffles
• Adjustable browning control makes waffles crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside
• Power on and ready to cook indicator lights tell you when power is on and when to add batter
• Cool-touch handle folds for easy storage
• Removable dishwasher safe grids and drip tray

Presto 02910 SaladShooter Electric Slicer/Shredder

Presto 02910 SaladShooter Electric Slicer/Shredder

Silly? Sure. Useful? YOU BETCHA!
We laughed and laughed when we received this "as seen on TV" slicing and, well, grating "miracle product" as a gift. Who would actually use such a crazy thing? Well, it turns out that we would, frequently. It may not dice, but it does slice beautifully - thin and uniform, as well as grating everything from cheese to potatoes to carrots to ... you name it. We use it almost daily. If you're a vegetable eater or a cheese lover, you won't know how you lived without it. Easy to assemble and disassemble, and it's dishwasher safe, although you do have to position the parts correctly to maximize water flow and cleaning. You can do a fine or a coarse grate, a straight or a wavy slice. You can even get an ice shaver for making snow cones. It does have some limitations. While it grates all kinds of cheeses (softer cheeses work best when chilled), it can't slice cheese at all. Nor does it slice onions, celery or other "stringy" vegetables well. It will grate them, though. It slices cucumbers,...

A great little appliance!
I have not had my salad shooter long but I have been very pleased with how easy it is to use and how easy it is to clean up after using it. I use a lot of coconuts making coconut kefir from the coconut water and then I have to find something to do with all that coconut meat or throw it away. After having so much coconut flour and coconut milk, I still had more left over that I did not want to throw away so I started shredded it. Shredded it by hand meant I was also shredded my hands. Not an option. After reading what others had written about the Salad Shooter, it sounded like something I would rather have than the shredder attachment to my Kitchen Aid. The reviews on that was not as good as the reviews on the Salad Shooter. I ordered the extra attachments for it and was surprised at the speedy delivery. One was not included in the order for some reason but they were swift to get it to me. I had intended to use it mainly for shredding the coconut but once I had it I started using it...

Another replacement
Years and years ago, someone gave my mother a salad shooter. She was so impressed - and Mother knew everything "kitchen" - she bought me one. I don't even know how many years I had it, but she has been gone for 6 years, and it was long before that. Well, last week, it was grating some potatoes for me, and it just gave up the ghost. For some reason, I'd never considered that that could happen! My beloved salad shooter was no more. Well, guess what! I came right to my computer and ordered another one, which, thank goodness, came today.
Maybe I should stock up in case they stop making them! How does anyone cook without a salad shooter?

Quickly slices or shreds vegetables, fruits, cheese, and more for sensational salads, perfect pizzas, terrific tacos and delicious desserts. Takes the work and mess out of making salads - one ingredient after another shoots right into your salad so there are no extra bowls to clean! Extra easy to use - interchangeable slicing and shredding cones slip right in. No complicated parts to assemble.The SaladShooter makes a fabulous gift for those who like big, healthy salads loaded with veggies, homemade pizza with plenty of grated cheese, desserts topped with nuts or chocolate--find yourself in that portrait somewhere? Amazingly fast, the SaladShooter literally shoots out prepared food directly into a salad bowl or in neat piles for an assemble-your-own taco party. Featuring sharp stainless-steel cutting blades, the two interchangeable cones, one for shredding and one for slicing, each slip in and out of the main chute and are secured in place with a twist-lock ring. That’s all--no complicated parts to assemble. Food should be cut into blocks or lengths that fit into the food chamber, and a chart in the user guide specifies which cone to use for which foods. To operate, one hand grips the handle of the shooter and flips on the power switch, while the other hand presses down on the food guide to produce a steady output of shredded or sliced food. There’s no need to wash the parts in between processing different kinds of food, so shredded cheese, lettuce, carrots, and more are ready one after the other. All parts except the motor base can be washed in the dishwasher. The SaladShooter is not intended for grinding coffee or processing cranberries, tomatoes, or meats. Measuring 9-1/2 by 7 by 3-1/2 inches with a five-foot cord, the SaladShooter is covered by a two-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Presto 02970 Professional SaladShooter Electric Slicer/Shredder, White

I use this for one thing and one thing only
This thing rocks for shredding cheese! My family doesn't like the pre-shredded stuff, and loves to just grab handfuls of freshly shredded cheddar cheese to munch on. However, normally shredding cheese involved grating your knuckles in the process, and a lot of arm muscle. Enter, the Salad Shooter!

I purchased my Salad Shooter last November. I buy 2 lb bricks of Tillamook cheese, and cut them into 5 pieces so they'll fit into the chute. This is the most time consuming part of shredding cheese for me now, and it doesn't take that long! Then, I shred the cut sections of cheese. Yes, the Salad Shooter is loud, but it only takes me seconds to shred 2 pounds of cheese. So, I don't mind the noise.

Clean up is easy. A quick rinse to get the bigger bits of stuck cheese off (not sure if this is even necessary, but I do it anyway), and then everything goes in the dishwasher, except for the motor bit, and that only rarely needs a quick wipe with a paper towel. I...

Everyone should have one!
I should have had one years ago but no one told me how wonderful the Salad Shooter is. My husband loves it also & uses it equally. I keep it on the counter next to the coffee maker with the large slicer attached.
It's small, pretty & gets used almost daily. Cucumbers, yellow squash, zucchini - rinse, cut small slice off ends & drop in Salad Shooter. Out the other end come beautiful slices that get eaten in our salads instead of looking good in the refrigerator. Mushrooms slice in a few seconds & look so attractive on casseroles or salad. Wash 3 potatoes, cut in half & insert in SS. I shoot them directly onto a cookie pan. Spritz a little oil or not - add some paprika & grated parmesan - into a 350 oven for 25 minutes & instant potato chips that are good for you. Radishes, celery, lettuce head, cabbage - everything comes out looking beautiful. Switch to grating cone & I can grate 2 pounds of cheddar or other cheese in about 2 minutes. I place it in a plastic tub for use during the...

Such a handy tool in the kitchen
I had a small version of salad shooter, it was great, used it for so many years, but now the blade was dull, and I kind have to push the veggy into the machine to be cut them. I decided the next salad shooter I buy should be slightly larger. So I bought this salad shooter professional series, which is great, having some features that are so important in a kitchen where cooking takes place almost every day: multiple cones to change, large feeding place for the veggy, fast, light, eassy to clean including in the dishwasher,still small enough to store in small spaces,efortless to cut and shread your veggy, no need for knife and cutting board.

What I like the most about this product is the fact that when I put veggy in it to be cut, shread..., the machine almost vaccum them in to be cut, so I do not have to push it in, probable du to sharp blades an fast speed of rotation of the blades. This way your work is done in no time.

In my oppinion it is a tool you must have...

Black & Decker FP1600B 8-Cup Food Processor, Black

Black & Decker FP1600B 8-Cup Food Processor, Black

Loud but works great!
I am giving this product 5 stars because it works excellent for the price. But I do need to wear ear plugs if I am going to use it for more than a couple of seconds. If you are looking for something more quiet, this is not for you. However, if you are looking to save money and do a great job and can deal with the noise, then this is for you. The large 8 cup workbowl is perfect for chopping things in together.

One other thing I have to say is the slicer slices pretty thin - thinner than it looks in the picture. I sliced carrots and they were about 1/8 inch in thickness.

Better And More Versatile Than A Chopper
Though this mid-capacity food processor has its drawbacks (please see my review of Black and Decker's 10-cup PowerPro model for the low-down on the unstable suction-cup feet), you certainly can't beat the price--especially if you're considering buying one of those tiny food choppers which hold no more than a few cups and can't take the heat during heavy use. We've owned several of the latter and were always disappointed in that they couldn't even chop well; half the food clung to the sides of the bowl, while that in the middle tended to get pulverized. The blade of an expensive brand's jammed on its flimsy pin stem grinding raisins and was not able to be repaired without returning to the manufacturer. This processor, on the other hand, not only chops but shreds and slices quite decently, with more power and a larger work bowl. We made a cottage cheesecake to test it and the results were pretty smooth. The metal blade did a good job of powdering the grated dry cheese flavoring when...

Vroom!
This was to replace a smaller food processor that broke. It's easy to use and assemble. The suction cups on the bottom can be a little annoying when it comes to moving it around, but it makes up for that in sheer power! It speeds through anything I have fed it so far. I mostly shred veggies and such. It takes care of them in no time making my previous food processor look pathetic. Annihilation! That was what popped into my head the first time I used it. It was actually fun! Love it!

Vicks Humidifier, Warm Mist

Vicks Humidifier, Warm Mist

really works great so far
I bought this warm mist humidifier after owning a vaporizer and a cool mist humidifier. The vaporizer was fine except that it was too hot and burned my son's arm, so i needed something else. The cool mist humidifier (different company) broke very fast besides for the expense of changing filters.
This humidifier is great.
1) The warmth is very soothing but not too hot-it won't burn you if you put your hand over the mist.
2) It never leaks onto the floor or gets the surrounding furniture wet (the other one did all the time).
3) It is whisper quiet. You can hardly hear the very soft humming sound even when right near it even on high.
4) It gives out a nice amount of humidity even on the low setting.
5) It is very simple to clean.
6) It is very light and easy to fill up.
On the low setting the water lasts well over 12 hours-I haven't timed exactly how long. On high it goes for about a little over 11 hours. The auto shut-off works very nicely...

Vicks Warm Mist Humidifier V745A
I purchased this product 3 weeks ago. I chose it because I prefer a warm mist humidifier and did not want to be bothered with filters. It has been great. If you follow a few basic steps, keeping it clean and running at top performance is not a big issue.

1. Empty the tank whenever unit is going to be off for more than a couple hours. I forgot to do this once and it formed lots more scale and took a lot more time and effort to remove it.

2. If you do not use distilled water (which I don't), descale the heating chamber with white vinegar every day or two. White vinegar is cheap. I don't have to mess with gallons of distilled water bottles or filters for my faucet. I live in a very hard-water area and this method has worked for me: When I get up, I unplug the unit, empty the tank, and put vinegar in the heating chamber. By the time I've showered and dressed, the mineral deposits have begun to fall away from the heating unit. It only takes a bit of prodding...

Heaven sent
I received an Evenflow vaporizer during my shower and thought it would help once baby & I got sick. Way to small for my room. I looked at many vaporizers and warm mist humidifiers that would actually work in our room. This one was perfect. I doesn't run out in the middle of the night, and helps keep the room warm when the heat goes down to low at night [apartment headaches]. The amount of night time coughing has lowered and asthma triggered dryness and dry sinis at night have ended. Perfect buy without the high cost.

Made in China.When cold and flu season strikes, it’s time to take this warm mist humidifier out of the closet. The humidifier provides healthful vapor that can help relieve the dehydrating symptoms brought on by colds and the flu, helping nasal passages breathe easily again and easing the irritation of coughs and sore throats. It offers a wonderful alternative therapy for children, those who prefer not to take over-the-counter medications, and those who can’t take decongestants due to pregnancy or incompatibility with other medications. This low-noise humidifier also takes preventative measures against colds by putting enough humidity in the air to combat the dryness caused by many heating systems. The humidity moistens the respiratory system and helps it to actually fight off viruses, bacteria, and pollutants.

The translucent water tank is easy to fill and monitor and outputs about one gallon of moist air into the room--enough for 12 hours of continuous use on one filling. Dry air flows into the cooling chamber and combines with bacteria-free steam vapor from the boiling chamber. The warm, moist air is then released into the room without emitting any white dust. When the tank is empty, it totally drains without leaving any potentially bacteria-laden standing water in the bottom. Two settings--high and low--let you adjust the humidity level to the appropriate room size or moisture level. In addition, flu or cold sufferers can place Kaz Inhalent or Vicks VapoSteam in the included medication cup to further soothe symptoms. This humidifier has a dishwasher-safe cooling chamber and medication cup for hygienic cleaning and is covered by a three-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
