Nostalgia Electrics HDR-565 Vintage Collection Hot Dog Roller

This hot dog maker is obviously waay cute. It's also a good price. Compared to other cutesy hot dog makers, 8 dogs is a good number. I love the carnival themed umbrella sneeze guard over the dogs, and having that double as a bun warmer was an inspired idea. The poles that hold up the umbrella are nice and sturdy, and it assembles in only 1 minute. This thing has many bonus features:

*Rollers look just like the industrial unit at your local convenience store. They really roll!

*It can also handle 4 foot long dogs and even foot long buns! That's really great because my wife loves those. However, 4 is an anemic number.

*Nostalgia went to the extra expense to include an on/off switch and even a temp control. Temp control should prove useful vs. devices that do not include that.

*This unit includes a griddle attachment for hamburgers/bacon/sausage, etc. I think the unit is too small to be useful for frying hamburgers; you could only do two at a time. The griddle drops in where the rollers would otherwise go, so switching functions is not going to be convenient and will require tools or heat proof gloves if you don't want to wait for a cool-down period.

*The heating element is a beefy rectangular coil that gives good coverage of the cooking area and is directly exposed to the dogs, yielding fast, strong heat.

*The drip tray, griddle, and rollers are all removable for easy cleanup. Love that.

*The rollers are beefy all metal construction nice.

So that adds up to one very nice unit, of which Nostalgia should be proud. The only real shortcoming I see is that eight dogs, while a good number for a toy device like this, can't stand up to much crowd control. Figure at least two dogs for each child, and three for each man and you're feeding only three to four people per batch. Assume the thing is lightning fast at ten minutes per batch and you see that you're going to need ten of these toys to feed your super bowl party, hahahaha.

Then you have to ask yourself, is this gizmo worth the space? It's pretty big, about the size of a toaster oven. Will you keep it out on the counter and use this special purpose device often (doubtful)? How far back in the closet will it be stored and will you go to the trouble to drag it out to cook up dogs for three people, pack it back up, and re-store it (doubtful)? So is it worth the space? I think it's probably best suited for its intended audience: a party of four kiddos.

I purchased this at a Sears store for $9.99. This makes THE BEST hot dogs ever. I used to microwave them, no longer. I would pay $40$50 for this machine it is worth every penny. I recently had a pool party and the adults were even more impressed with it then the kids. My guests now purchased one for their offices. This even toasts the buns. I placed frozen buns on top were there is a little spot for them and by the time the hot dogs were done which is 15-25 min depending on how you like them the rolls were actually toasted. I HIHLY RECOMMEND this product. It makes the hot dogs taste the way they should!

I bought this to use for my grandson's fifth birthday next week after reading the glowing reviews. We (actually, he) wanted to test it out so we did. Now we have used it about 4 times. As others have said, it makes the best hot dogs ever must be the slow dripping of the juices as it rotates the dogs. It's easy to use and my grandson loves cooking his own (with supervision, of course).

I usually find that "gimmicky" things don't work well but this really does. Morevover, cleanup is a breeze the rollers and the drip tray both remove easily. The heated buns are great also.

We just need to remember to buy "shorter" hot dogs for his party so we can cook eight at a time.

Thanks to all the folks who took the time to review this! I probably wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't for the great reviews

Addendum: 7/12/08:

We have had this for several months now and use it several times per week. My grandson still loves hot dogs made on this and several of our neighbors have decided to buy one. A must have if you like hot dogs!

Got a replacement, and new unit works GREAT! Amazon won't let me change Stars, but I'd change to 4.5 if I could.!

I purchased this after reading the reviews. I had no desire to use this for a party or large gathering, just one serving at a time ( 4-8 dogs). I tried it the day after it arrived and once since. The heating coils turn warm, but they don't warm up enough to prevent touching them after an hour on MAX heat. We tried two batches, after 1 hour the dogs were warm, more than room temp, but thats it. Called the company, they said to return to Amazon, we probably have a defective unit.

I love this machine for one simple reason: it's easy enough to use that my 5 year old daughter is now able to make dinner for us. This was a great purchase. The hot dogs cook evenly and the buns get nice and warm. You can turn the heat down after the dogs are done cooking and let them spin on low heat until you are ready for another. I was nervous when I got it that I'd bring it home and it would be made cheaply and break easily, but no... this is a quality product. I am very happy with it. My daughter and her friends love this machine and it makes making lunch a breeze. I haven't used the gridle feature, but I don't really care about that. This is a great hot dog maker. End of story.

Swiss Diamond Pressure Cast Aluminum Non Stick Low Side Grill Pan, Grey, 11-Inch by 11-Inch

This is the best cookware you can get. I actually donated my Le Creuset grill pan to charity because it was just impossible to clean after using. It was good for hot-dogs only. You can cook anything in the Swiss Diamond pan with a very easy clean up. If you have someone in your family who cooks for you, you need to buy this for them and they will love you forever! If you cook for yourself, you will love ME for giving this reveiw!

We bought this for a Christmas gift for my in laws. The only complaint we've heard, and let me state that it may be user "error".....is she can't regulate the heat correctly. This is an upgrade from an older George Foreman grill, so it may be that they're not used to the digital readings.

I just got mine and I thought I was buying new and will have to inquire that later, but so far I've noticed it's wobbly (the plates and the back hinges) which could be that way to accommodate different thicknesses of meats and things, however there's a knick on the side of the red top area and the front black strip with the buttons makes me think it was used and returned because the buttons are different...meaning, the one to the left is not set as well as the one on the right. It appears used and I paid a lot for mine. I haven't the time or energy to take and return it etc. but I might if it doesn't work well. Plus I'll check more into the wobbly issues too. So far I'm disappointed in the initial condition, plus the product box was all dinged up (I noticed this right away when I opened the outer Amazon shipping box).

Broil King 934657 Monarch 20 40,000-BTU Natural-Gas Grill

I recently moved to a Townhome which allowed only electric or Natural Gas Grills. Also, I had limited space on my deck so size was also an issue. Most Nat Gas grills were either too big or very expensive. It took me a while but I came accross this Broil King 934657 Monarch Naturat Gas Grill online and it met my requirements for size and fuel. It also had some features that you would expect on a more expensive grill i.e. stainless steel burners, 4 wheels 2 front locking, fold down side trays with utensiland cup holdersand cast iron grates. I've had this grill for more that a month and I'm very pleased with the way it grills. We grill 3-5 xs a week and I have grilled ribs, steak, chicken and fish all with great flavor. Amazon delivered it on a timely basis and assembly was a snap. The only improvement I would make is to hav a brace accross the back of the grill to make it more sturdy. However I can live with it, it performs great and it's good value for the money, I strongly recommend it.

This is a well built product. I have had this for three years now and it is holding up much better than I anticipated. I live in a high humidity area and was expecting some rust. So far nothing. The only rust I see is on the cast iron grates. I wish they were stainless steel for this area. The push button starter has never failed and lights every time. We use this about 5 times a week, even in Winter.

The quality is as good as Weber at about $100 less cost.

would like to have more control of cooking tempiture. Tempiture reaches 350 degrees on low we still need to lift lid with a stick or tempature will creep up. 350 degrees cooking tempiture should be approximately at mid-point on burner control.

Cuisinart CGS-5014 14-Piece Deluxe Stainless-Steel Grill Set

I love how large and solid these feel in my hand.

The case looks nice except the velco straping that holds the tools in were already falling apart. I think I'll just try some fabric glue to fix them. The stitching was weak on almost all of them.

If you are buying these for the case you might reconsider, but the tools are awesome.

First I will say that I love Cuisinart products and that is why I ordered these ones over any other. For the first time I am disappointed in one of their products. The tongs don't lock closed, which is a mild inconvenience, especially when putting back in the cheaply constructed case. The case hinges are not square and the lid closes "off" just a little. I have to push it into place to make it latch properly. The part that really irritates me and dropped the score so far is that the tongs will not pick up any weight. I love to slow cook roasts on my grill and these tongs will not pick up a 3lb. roast. My cheap Wal-Mart tongs did fine with this all the way up to a 5 or 6 lb roast. When I bought my new grill I wanted a good set of tools to go with it. They are cheaply made and bend under any amount of weight. Plus the cleaner brush has a straight handle and the grate has to be pulled off the grill to be cleaned properly. My old one had a handle with about a 30 degree bend in it and could use to clean more effectively even with the grate still on the grill. Just a poorly made kit all together.

The tools themselves are okay and of decent quality. The case, as mentioned before, is very cheap. The interior was torn upon delivery before I even opened it. The tongs really could use a mechanism for holding them shut as well, so you don't HAVE to store them in the case to keep them from taking up an entire drawer.

The reason I bought this set over an almost identical one was because of the "$20 Omaha Steaks Gift Reward Card" which isn't a reward card AT ALL. I live less than 5 minutes from an actual Omaha Steaks store, and thought I would stop in and grab a few things. 1) This "reward card" can not be used in stores, only online or over the phone. 2) It isn't a "reward card" at all; it is a COUPON and you have to spend $80.00 to use it...

Pig Tail Food Flipper Jr, 12-Inch

this is one of the best idea's that has come out for flipping meat,this works indoors and outdoor and it keeps what ever you are flipping intact no loss of juice from your meat. if you do alot of cooking with different kinds of meat you need to get yourself one of these

This was exactly what I thought it was and appears well made. Easy to use but you need to let the food full cook on that side before trying to flip, otherwise it will just tear.

ThermoWorks The Original Cooking Thermometer/Timer

I read the Cook's Illustrated magazine review. They rated this number 1. I called Thermoworks to ask about the probes. They said they are NOT "sometimes defective". But, over time heat and moisture can damage them. Or, if you let the cable rest against a heating element it will burn through the cable. So I got an extra probe. The price is fair. But still haven't needed it. I also asked about Polder. They said it is actually the same thermometer internally and made by the same factory in China. But they said they are not associated in any way with Polder. I've had mine since last Thanksgiving and I use it at least once a week in the oven or on the BBQ. It's easy to set and at this price I figured it was such a low risk. Since then I've decided its one of the best values in my kitchen. I also have the Thermapen much higher price. Both work great. -By the way, don't use the polder replacement probes. The one I tried was not accurate with this unit. Get the correct thermoworks one TW362XX.

I've been using this product for over 2 years and love it. I give it as wedding shower gifts, because it's one of my most useful kitchen tools. (Mine was marketed under the Sunbeam name, but it's absolutely IDENTICAL to this model TW362B, except mine has white buttons.) I've been researching these thermometers again, because I'm getting ready to buy a second one as a backup: I don't want to be without this item for even one day.

Before buying this model, I went through 2 other brands / models, and this one is best. I generally use it several times a week. For example, I insert it in my whole-wheat bread loaves after they've baked for 15 minutes; the alarm enables me to remove them from my baking stone at the perfect time, when the interior temp is 194. Keeping the probe in the loaf for a few minutes after removing the latter from the oven has enabled me to determine that residual heat causes the interior temp to rise to the desired 200 degrees. People compliment me on these loaves all the time, and I've never had a failure since I started using this tool.

My probe has been dropped numerous times, but I've never had to replace any parts and it's still working great.

I suspect the negative reviews are due to one of the following:

1) Some people appear to have been writing about the OLDER model, not the new and improved Model TW362B.

2) Maybe people have been using it at temps that are too high. Like ALL other probe-and-cable type thermometers that I've seen, this one can't be used in ovens that have been heated to high temps, and I wouldn't think it could tolerate the high heat of a grill, for instance. That may explain many of the failures people have written about!

The instructions say not to put it inside an oven that is hotter than 392 degrees (presumably because the oven heat would damage the cable and/or sensor). For a while, I was setting my oven to that temp. Then I learned elsewhere that when you set your oven to 350, it can actually spike up to 400 while it's heating. So now I try to avoid using this thermometer in any oven hotter than about 360, which is the temp I use for my bread. (I leave the probe sticking in the bread for 20 minutes at a time in a 360 oven, and so far it's worked fine.)

Having said that, I must admit that several times I've forgotten and put it in a 375 to 400-degree oven for maybe 10 minutes at a time, and no harm has come of it. Now that I've heard you can risk higher temps if you wrap the probe cord in foil, I may go up to 400 deliberately, but only after I get my back-up.

Thermoworks, are you listening? How about upgrading this model so that it can tolerate higher temps? Except for that detail, it's just about perfect, and I hope you keep carrying it!

3) Maybe people have been getting sensitive parts WET. Somewhere I read that for probe-and-cable thermometers of this type, the place where the cable attaches to the curved steel of the probe can't be made truly waterproof, so it shouldn't be submerged. I hand-wash my probe, of course, and I've been careful to keep that spot dry (as well as the other end--the part that inserts into the main body of the thermometer).

If I need to soak my probe (which rarely happens, but sometimes I leave it overnight and bread crumbs are stuck to it the next day), I stand it in a small glass of soapy warm water, which makes it easy to keep the cable-joining part high and dry. That works well; the stuck-on stuff then wipes off very easily and quickly.

4) Regarding alarms that don't go off: at one point I thought my unit had gone bad because its alarm inexplicably stopped working. Then when I finally looked at it carefully, I discovered that my daughter had turned the alarm OFF without telling me! A simple flip of the switch cured that problem. (My previous models had lacked that switch, so I hadn't paid any attention to the switch.)

I haven't ever used the magnet, because magnets on ANY product never seem to hold as they claim.

In summary, I've found this to be a great product with MANY uses.

I use the Thermapen thermometer made by this same company and I wanted another one that I could set to beep at a certain temperature in the oven when it hits a certain degree. I even used it on the grill to cook steaks. I just closed the lid on the wire and found that lots easier than just probing the meat all the time. It works fine and I'm very happy with it.I will be buying another one for a friend.

I brought one of these oven thermometers/timers with me when I spent a year at the South African research station in Antarctica (SANAE IV). Although designed to be inserted into a piece of meat that is cooking in the oven, we have used it for many other things as well, namely: making yoghurt, baking bread and deep frying (though it's maximum temperature is only 200°C/392°F). My 9 team mates were so impressed by it, they each ended up buying (at least) one for themselves.

I would recommend buying a replacement probe as well. For under $10 it is your best insurance against an inaccurate probe especially when you're stuck at the bottom of the planet. My probe was spot on for both the ice water and boiling water (corrected for altitude) tests.

One thing which the thermometer does not have (and would have been nice for our purposes) is the ability to sound the alarm when the temperature drops to a certain set temperature. The alarm only sounds when the temperature rises to a specific temperature from below (i.e. heats up). A cool down alarm would be especially nice to warn us when our warm milk had cooled to the correct temperature to add the yoghurt starter. Though I can understand that this is missing, as this is not the intended use for the thermometer.

All in all, I am very happy with this thermometer and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

I really am quite careful with my kitchen equipment so when this unit stopped working after a couple of uses, I assumed I had a defective unit, I returned it for another one. This one too died after a few uses. I read more about it on line, bought new one, and an extra probe because the manufacturer suggested it. I treated it with the most tender kid gloves and again I found after only two or three uses, it did not work. So I have given up, it is going to the electronic recycling. My last probe broke after one use. I am posting this only to help others not waste money!

Then I heard from ThermoWorks!

After posting the review above, I received an email, followed by a phone call from the company. The person who contacted me was very sincere and seemed to really believe in his product and wanted to help me figure out what I was doing to cause it to fail. He offered me a new unit for free if I would give it another try. I said no, I didn't have time to be testing it.

But he asked me some questions about how I used it and suggested what might be the problem. It seems that you have to be careful not to let the wire from the probe to the unit touch the oven rack or the roasting pan. He asked me if I had been careful to keep the wire taught to avoid this contact. I had to admit I had not, I do not remember this being part of the written instructions that came with the unit I bought, because as I said in my original post, I read and follow instructions carefully. (I wonder if such instructions now come with the unit!)

So I agreed to try again and he quickly sent me another unit with an extra probe. It was months before I finally tested it. I kept expecting a phone call to ask if I had tried it (and to ask me to revise my criticism of it) but I never heard from the company again, which really impressed me.

I have used it, about five times now, and following the new precautions about the wire, I have been successful. I still double check the temp with a second thermometer because I'm still nervous from all my previous raw roasts, but the unit does work as stated.

I have changed my rating to 4 stars. I can't give 5 since it is too touchy and it is expensive to replace the probe. But I would give the company 5 stars for their honest concern about their product and customer satisfaction.
