This product does not emit harsh fumes and cleans tough baked-on grills, the stove,the oven and pans very well. I was stuck and could not clean the oven due to cleaners
which were available in the local supermarket, so my oven was suffering from baked on
splatters, etc. Now I can clean everything in my kitchen and this product does the
job.

West 6130 Bend Raclette Party Grill
The metal grilling portion is very thin/light. When we began cooking the thinly sliced steak and salmon, we brought it right out from the fridge. With the rapid change in temperature, the top did begin to ((warp/bend)). However, when it cooled off, it went right back to normal. Was slightly disturbed when it happened because it was a pretty drastic change in shape. The heat this racelette grill gives off is perfect and certainly hot enough to cook the foods we prepared.
If you do not mind spending more money for this size then go get the Swissmar but we only use it during Thanksgiving and Christmas. Overall, worth the money.
Amazon did a nice job with packaging! With quick shipping as well!This is the second raclette grill we have purchased. The first one is a Swissmar KF-77081 8-Person Stelvio Raclette for $134, twice the price of this one! Our family enjoyed it so much that we've given a raclette to each of our kids when they went to college. We didn't want to spend as much as on the first one, so I searched till I found this one. And it's great! I thought only the higher end priced items would have a quality unit and the granite stone, but this one does, too, although it wasn't mentioned in the description. It works great. It's the right size for 8 people, and you can even make it work for twelve, with a little sharing. The unit heats up quickly, the granite is good quality, and grill is a little less bulky than the rectangular swissmar. We have bought this for several others as graduation gifts for other family and friends, and wedding gifts, too. I think that speaks well for its quality, and if I had to do it over again, I would skip the swissmar and get the West Bend for us, too. Why spend more when you can get just as good a product for half the price?

This item doesn't even diserve a one star. I've used other raclettes before at friends houses, and decided to buy one myself. Big mistake, I was excited to finally have one of my own and invited my friends over. My friends are from Germany and France and the Raclette is a big item for them there. We turned it on, it heated real nice at first, then the top slowly warped (kinda like when you put a cold cookie sheet in the oven and warps) until the food wouldn't cook much less stay on the grill top. I decided to try to cook an egg on the flat side and the top tipped over and raw egg went everywhere. First I thought that maybe I didn't have it sitting on the metal prongs properly and tried readjusting it 3 times, but when it's warped it doesn't matter. And after a while we could hardly get the cheese to melt. When we turned it off it slowly started to flatten out, but not completely.I recommend you purchase a better quality grill.

I travel to Switzerland regularly on business and have enjoyed raclette there, either using a grill or scraped off the large wheel. I bring home the cheese occasionally and we've melted it (carefully!) under the broiler, which is not the best way and you have to be really careful not to burn it. We've been looking for a reasonably priced raclette grill for some time now, and liked this one, but had some doubts after reading some negative comments. We finally decided to go for it, and so far we're glad we did. It melted the cheese nicely and the grill top kept our vegetables and meats warm (or if left longer, actually cooked them a bit). We haven't used the stone top yet, but will try it next time. One thing we're very happy with is that the heat doesn't travel to the table top. We tried it on a counter and were comfortable that the bottom stayed cool, so we next tried it on our glass top table (with lots of padding just in case). Happy to say the glass was cool the whole time, and even the padding didn't really get warm. So far we're quite happy with this raclette grill.Want West 6130 Bend Raclette Party Grill Discount?
Lived in France the last 3 years, before that in Germany and Hungary. I had quality European Raclette grills. This one doesnt really make the top 10 for me.The real problem is the heating element that is much to weak.
it takes a looong time to heat up and to get any color on your cheese is very very time consuming.
Aside of this, good price, the stone is a nice extra
all in all a little bit more power would have made this a good product. like this, I would call it not the best buy I did this year

KitchenAid Gourmet Digital Probe Thermometer
Buy KitchenAid Gourmet Digital Probe Thermometer Now
I bought this as a cheaper option after my All Clad thermometer broke. It's definitely not as nice, but gets the job done... or, at least, it did before it stopped working. After about three uses, the temperature would only read "Lo," regardless of how hot the food I tried to measure was. I even left it in a meatloaf for the last 10 minutes of baking to see if it would ever warm up and give me a read on the temp, but no dice. Luckily, since I bought it from Amazon, I let them know about the problem and they promptly sent me a replacement. Fingers crossed the new one works.Read Best Reviews of KitchenAid Gourmet Digital Probe Thermometer Here
Worked very well. Had all the features we wanted. Our meat was coming out perfect each time.The flaw...The probe is not secured to the silicon casing. Because of this, when you pull the probe out of the meat, the metal probe slowly pulls out of the silicon. When this happened, we easily shoved the metal piece back in, but the wiring was damaged, and we can no longer use our thermometer without ordering a new probe. I am hesitant to do so considering it will likely have the same problem.
We only had the thermometer for less than 6 months before it broke.The probe on this blew out after three months. I use it for cheesemaking, and I really like the unit, but it doesn't work with a bum probe.

Nordic Ware Pancake Pans
I can't wait to surprise my granddaughters at breakfast time! It takes so little to make them happy yet the memories last for years. I only get to see them once a year since they live far away, but throughout the year they talk about the special breakfasts Oma fixes for them. I always have something unique at breakfasts & they've come to expect it as tradition. In time, I'd like to get some of the other pans just for the variety...And the thing is my husband & I are kids at heart so we'll use them even when the little ones aren't here.We've had a great time making pancakes and eggs in this pan. The kids love them. Keep in mind, these are small pancakes, so it takes a while to cook up a meal. I'm thinking of buying another pan (with different animals) so I can get two sets going at a time. We use some spray on olive oil and have had no problem with sticking or with clean up. Took a couple of tries to get the temperature right, but once we found it, the fun was on.

I purchased this as an Easter present for my grandchildren. They received it this morning & couldn't wait until Easter to use it. It worked perfectly! There was NO sticking. My daughter said she'd highly recommend this, as it was a big hit at breakfast this morning.This broke our glass stovetop the first time we used it. We had to buy a new stove because of that. There is no warning on the label. We read online that the cast iron coils under each animal face cause a seal with the stove top and traps the heat. The heat builds up and breaks the stovetop.I bought this pan just a few weeks ago. It is perfect in all ways. Pancakes are made quickly, they don't stick to the surface and everybody at home loves the bugs. We are very glad to have it.Thursday, January 9, 2014

My Char-Broil grill is 5 years old and I needed to replace the heat plates, so I decided to replace the burners and carryover tubes as well. Glad I did. These burners are exact replacements and the flames are now even across the three burners. Ended up replacing the cooking grid as well.Want Char-Broil Performance Series Replacement Burner Discount?
My Charbroil cooker was used when it was given to me several years ago. The old burners were holy, the carrying tube across the back had been removed, the spiders had made a home in the side burner tube and the contacts on the automatic starter needed cleaning. This spring, I cleaned it up as usual but then realized that I could change the burners if only I could loosen the 4 screws that held the tub to the frame and move it just enough to lift the old burners out. I got three out of four screws out and tipped up the tub. Out slid the old burners, in slid the new. So easy. The new burners along with the new carrying tube and cover plates have restored my Charbroil to new cooking condition. With a push of the starter button now, the first burner lights up like my kitchen stove and the other burners follow suit after only a few seconds of the first burner warming up and the gas reaching the carrying tube. If I can do it, anyone can. Perfect.Friday, January 3, 2014

CucinaPro 220-03 Piccolo Pizzelle Baker
Operation is simple: you place one-inch balls or a couple of teaspoons of dough, depending on the recipe, in the center of each mold, then close the lid, locking it in place with the metal clip attached to the top handle. Although the instructions estimate approximately 40-50 seconds of cooking per batch, I found that it took a couple of minutes to get mine to the right doneness, but, of course, that may be recipe specific. It does take some experimentation to get the dough placed just right to get centered pizzelles, something that I never found a problem with a bigger pizzelle maker that I used years ago. Even off-center pizzelles cook perfectly -they just don't look as nice. It took me an entire batch to get comfortable, so, if you're planning to make these for an occasion, make sure you allow yourself enough time to practice. The instructions recommend placing the dough just behind the center, but I found that to be horrible advice. Put the balls in the center of each impression, and adjust from there. I had no problem with unevenly cooked or burned cookies, nor did I find that I had to work exceptionally fast.
The pizzelle maker comes with a small, wooden cone shaper. The size of both the cone and the pizzelles makes for tiny waffle cones, something that would be cute as toppers for a bowl of ice cream or for sampling a few flavors, but not very practical for most people. For real waffle cones, I use my machine specifically for that purpose.
This maker makes wonderful pizzelles and stroopwafels in a manageable size. I highly recommend it!
-Debbie Lee WesselmannI am so glad I ordered this pizzelle maker. I love the petite size of each waffle and that it makes FOUR at a time. My parents and grandparents all made pizzelles and had a variety of irons, but this one is the best. The prompt shipping is also a big plus!

I began making pizzelles over forty years ago, using the old-fashioned, long-armed pizzelle iron that you put on a stove burner, that was given to me by the grandmother of a friend. When I found my old first electric pizzelle maker I was thrilled at how much easier it was to use. When it bit the dust after over ten years of use, and since my family loves pizzelles, I had to find a new one fast! This isn't just a Christmas cookie in my family! I came across this mini (piccolo) pizzelle baker on Amazon and decided to give it a try. What a find! It heats up quickly, stays hot batch after batch, bakes the cookies fast and cleans up very nicely. I also love the smaller cookies and so do the rest of my gang. They're easier to make and easier to eat. I didn't use the recipe that was included because I didn't want the added fat and calories from butter, instead I relied on my own recipe from my Nana and they worked perfectly. I did use Pam between batches to prevent sticking, just like with my old machine. I would recommend this to anyone interested in a great pizzelle baker. Even a novice baker can make these interesting, delicious cookies with this pizzelle baker.Read Best Reviews of CucinaPro 220-03 Piccolo Pizzelle Baker Here
I first bought the Quisinart that makes 2, 4" cookies. I wanted something that made more at one time so I purchased this one. This one makes 4, 3" cookies at a time. Heres the difference: The cuisinart makes thinner cookies. The CucinaPro makes thicker ones that actually taste better.I can see why some folks complain about the uneveness of cooking but, if you go by the steam that comes out of the machine and open it when the steam stops, the cookies are fine. The color may be a little uneven but it doesn't effect the way the cookie comes out.
I have discoved oils that I use that I like much better than the pure extracts. I believe the company name is LorAnn that is offered on Amazon. Let your imagination run wild. I've made chocolate-peppermint, cinnamon spice, lemon, butter-rum....the list goes on. You can make everything with one machine and not have to turn your oven on!
All-in-all, I think this is a good buy and love it!Liked the smaller size. Once I determined the correct amount (many tries) it worked like a charm. ended up using the Pampered chef cookie gun with once push-just the right amount of batter

Ordered 2 of these pans and found them dented on arrival, but Amazon quickly sent replacements that arrived in good condition. They are fairly thick aluminum and seem to be built well. These baking pans are huge! I measured my oven before ordering to be sure they would fit and they have an inch or two in front and behind for air to flow around them, but nearly touch the sides. I made some peanut butter cookies the other night and was able to fit 20 cookies on one sheet (on parchment paper) and they baked up beautifully, though I did have to increase the baking time by a couple minutes from what I would use with my old nonstick cookie sheets. (I understand that is typical when using the shiny aluminum surface instead of the dark surface on the non-stick sheets.) I had some concerns about whether there was enough air space around the pans, but my test cookies all cooked up very evenly. If I find a difference in evenness after more tests, I'll be sure to update the review. I can't comment on how they clean or how baked food releases from the aluminum because I always use line with parchment paper when baking. (I find it convenient to slide a whole sheet of cookies -still on the parchment paper -onto a cooling rack when they are done baking.)Pros:
Good quality construction.
Very large surface area.
Good solid edges add stiffness and would contain lots of liquid if using it to catch drips under a roaster or pie or whatnot.
Cons:
The edges make it more challenging to slide off a sheet of parchment paper full of baked cookies.
Since it is aluminum, baked goods take a couple minutes longer than on a darker (non-stick type) pan.
*The pan doesn't have much airspace around it, which MAY prove to be an issue in certain applications such as baking multiple sheets at once, but I have not yet had opportunity to test it yet, so this is only an assumption.
I would recommend this product to those who enjoy baking, but make sure to measure your oven first.

I own 5 of these now. The size is great. I use these sheet pans so often for cookies and to put mini loaf pans on when I'm baking quick bread or to simply add another layer under my cake pans so the bottom of the cake doesn't brown too quickly. I purchase parchment paper by the case so I always bake my cookies on a layer of parchment on these sheets. I don't know how the pan would perform with no parchment. I imagine your cookies would stick unless you greased the pan. I like the size because it almost fills the oven. I can get so many cookies on one sheet! I have a convection oven so I put 3 of these sheet pans in the oven at once. A whole double batch of cookies baked at one time! My husband uses these to put spare ribs one (lined with foil) , baked or roasted vegetables, pizza......you can use these for so many things. I highly recommend these.Wednesday, August 14, 2013
