Wolfgang Puck Panini Duet and Multipurpose Grill, Silver

Wolfgang Puck Panini Duet and Multipurpose Grill, SilverThis is a decent, relatively small panini maker. There is no temperature control so you need to keep an eye on your stuff. It browns the bread quite quickly, but I noticed that it won't burn it that easily. You can fit 2 standard size sliced bread sandwiches in it. Not much else. It is lightweight and easy to store. The grilling surfaces do NOT come off, so cleaning can be a challenge, but the non-stick surfaces clean easily. My main issue with it is that it is so light and almost top-heavy that if you press on the handle to put some pressure on the bread it tends to want to tip over forward (UPDATE: I think I saw an newer version which was slightly different with feet that come out further in the front to prevent this exact problem so look for the newer version)

Comes with an oil, drip tray and a brush to clean the surfaces.

Weber 6432 Silicone Basting Brush

Weber 6432 Silicone Basting BrushFolks, this is a heavy brush and it is a good brush! I, like many others have use either a nylon or plastic-ish sort of brushes for years and was just a bit leery of "silicone." My goodness, resistance to change is certainly a sign of getting older I suppose, but it is also a big time impediment when it comes to doing things better and easier. This basting brush is oh so much better than the ones I was using before...both on the grill and in the oven.

This is a very reasonably priced well built tool and it is big and heavy. I've no doubt that if the circumstances were right, you could use it as some sort of defensive weapon. But of course that is not what you buy it for. You buy it to slather stuff on other stuff so that it will taste better when you eat it. This brush more than fulfills its calling in life. It allows a smooth flow and allows you to regulate the amount of what ever it is you are smearing on your food as you cook. As a big time plus for me, you can put this thing in the dishwasher. That may not seem like much, but cleaning one of the old type basting brushes could be a real pain and a bit time consuming...they certainly were not built for dishwashers, which since I am the official dishwasher in our household, is quite at the top of my list of things I want and this has made my life much easier.

I like Weber products; buy them when ever they are available, and I certainly have not been unhappy with this purchase. Unless I do something real stupid, which does happen now and again, this brush should last me for years! I may quite well put this item in my will.

Grilling tip for you: I bought this as a replacement brush for the one I have had used for a couple of years. I found that if you become distracted and lay the basting brush...any basting brush, over the open flames of a grill and leave it there, it will burn. This causes a horrid mess and the smell is not pleasing. When grilling, you got to keep your head in the game and let others yell at the dogs.

I never expected a heavy, stainless-steel handled basting brush like this for the reasonable price: Weber does it again!

If you are looking for a lightweight silicone brush, however, this is NOT it. This is heavy and should last a lifetime and for that, I am very, very appreciative.

This thing is heavy duty! Looks and works great! Holds liquids great! You will not be dissapointed!

Read Best Reviews of Weber 6432 Silicone Basting Brush Here

How could I possibly be so excited about a basting brush??! I imagine all of the other reviewers before me scratched their head and preceded to type out little loving haikus describing their adoration. If you have dealt with basting brushes from your local 'supermarket' before then you will understand why we love this product. Many a times, I try to clean under warm/hot water the sticky marinade that has become forever embedded in the nylon bristles of other brushes. Forget about egg washing anything ever again.... you are always left with a myriad of scents no matter how many times you wash, rinse and repeat. Then you must throw the cheap basting brush into the dishwasher. What remains is a gnarly burnt bristle mess which has rendered that 4 dollar baster unusable. RIP nylon brush.

Now onto this beauty: It is BIG, slightly heavy and long (about 12 inches it seems; didn't measure)! The handle is SOLID stainless steel in a beautiful matte finish. Whatever you have known of other basters it completely the opposite of this one. It isn't light, the handle isn't plastic and the bristles aren't made of nylon. I almost forgot to mention: It is dishwasher safe!! Mine runs through and comes out like the day it was purchased. FINALLY!

I was able to egg wash some Easter cookies without blinking. I also brushed a marinade that was very herb heavy on pork souvlakis. The usual herb mix would have been stuck between nylon bristles; with the silicone this did not occur (AMEN!). This was purchased for my husband and his balcony grilling, but I have decided to keep it in my kitchen crock. The same day he basted the same marinade on the aforementioned souvlakis while grilling outside. He came back raving because for once the handle was long enough to reach the meat in the back and finally, he didn't burn the basting brush.

Highly recommend to anyone that is in need of a modern basting brush that can actually handle kitchen/outside grilling tasks. I do agree that weber should add a nice hole/metal loop to the top for hanging while barbecuing. If it had the loop, I would have never taken possession and put it into my crock. Buy it not just for barbecuing, but also for your kitchen. It blends perfectly in my stainless steel appliance kitchen.

I was uncertain about a silicone basting brush, but this works well. The effect of the bristles is a little different from what you'd get with a plastic or nylon brush, but it does a good job of spreading the sauce and juices around on the meat (which is what it's meant to do after all). It is huge, however, as you might expect for a grilling basting brush meant to be used over high heat. The length is also useful for basting within the oven. My wife doesn't like it because she thinks it is too large to fit in our utensil canister, and because it's a bit too tall to fit upright in the silverware basket of our dishwasher. I lay it down flat, and it cleans just fine, and doesn't retain that oily residue as the old nylon brush did. It's a manly tool for manly men, and I use it constantly. Recommended.

Whirlpool 31552A Heavy Duty Degreaser 16 Ounce

Whirlpool 31552A Heavy Duty Degreaser 16 OunceI used this to clean our heavily coated Vent-a-Hood. Cut through the grease on the first try and didn't leave any harsh chemical smells. Really liked it.

I would have given it five stars but the handle on the sprayer broke right out of the box and I had to put it in another sprayer.

The product itself is five stars

after trying all sorts of degreaser on my oven, this one is by far the best. Just let it soak in for 3 minutes and it will make your over look brand new! It took off

very stubborn patches of grease.

Char-Broil 4985130 Replacement Bristle Heads for Brush Hawg Grill Brushes, Pack of 2

Char-Broil 4985130 Replacement Bristle Heads for Brush Hawg Grill Brushes, Pack of 2Very hard to find these at a retail store. We were able to find on line and had them within the week. Great buy!!!

Great replacement...Was not sure that it would fit my brush handle, but it fit perfectly. Great product...Great price! Would do it again.

The old brush head easily pryed off.. the new brush head snapped into place on the old handle ...grill brush back like new now with one new brush to spare. If it is of same durability as the original brush head, I'm hoping it lasts at least 2 years.

I'm glad I found these after I found the Brush Hawg at a salvage store! And, the replacement bristle heads. I've always held onto prior grill brushes too long and sometimes gotten metal bits in food from grill because I was using brush past the time I should have thrown it out. Not anymore. I have spares of both to go with a handle that is strong and slightly flexible and holding up to time and use and year-round outdoor weather. THESE should keep the grill clean and brush parts OUT of food because I'll replace the heads at appropriate time because I have a replacement at hand. Good price and good shipping. I hope these are available for a long time.

Pedrini Kucina Silicone Head Tongs

Pedrini Kucina Silicone Head TongsThese are perfect for kitchen use with the frying pan and the George Foreman Grill! They wash up nicely in the dishwasher, too.

I already had a pair of these tongs, so I purchased a pair for to of my sister's. I love mine and I know my sister's will to. I never realized how much juice you lose when turning meat with a fork, until I started using tongs. I got the idea watching cooking shows.

Winix WDH871 70 Pint Dehumidifier with Built-In Pump White with Charcoal Grill

Winix WDH871 70 Pint Dehumidifier with Built-In Pump White with Charcoal GrillThis unit is identical to the WDH851 with the difference that one is rated 70 pints and one 50. The first thing to clarify about that rating, and this applies to all dehumidifiers, is that it refers to the maximum amount of water it can remove in 24 hours, not to the size of the tank (which is a fairly standard 2 gallons).

I live in DC and have a beach house in Puerto Rico, which remains closed for 2-3 months at a time so keeping humidity in check becomes a regular chore. I've had and/or tested around 10 dehumidifiers in the last few years. In general they all do the job, clear the air of excess humidity, and they do this fairly effectively. The differences come in how they do this:

1) how many speed settings they have,

2) can the unit be set to run automatically to maintain a certain humidity percent,

3) how noisy are they (notice I don't say how quiet are they, all of them make noise),

4) how are they drained: bucket vs. gravity drain vs. pump

5) how sturdy are they

6) how easily can they be moved from one room to the next (not all wheels are the same)

This unit has 2 fan speed settings. At the high speed this is fairly loud. I'm not talking Rolling Thunder loud, but not quiet enough to keep in a bedroom or to have a quiet conversation next to it. I use this setting for when I'm out of the house. The low setting makes a comfortable background white noise similar to an area fan.

One of the things I like best about this unit is that it has 3 ways to drain the water: 1) manually by carrying a bucket (very solid construction), 2) gravity drain, and 3) it has an included pump that can drain the water up to 15 feet vertically.

The unit has an automatic on and off (or sleep mode) depending on the pre-set humidity level.

The wheels in this unit work very well. In other units (the Danby 60 pint and the Kenmore 70 pint) the wheels either broke or sagged so much that they were worthless after a few months.

Compared to the Frigidaire 70-Pint Dehumidifier (FAD704TDP), the Winix is far better.

1) it is better constructed, the wheels are bigger and easier to roll and the bucket handle feels stronger,

2) it includes a water pump (pump and hose for the Frigidaire add about $80-100)

3) it is quieter, particularly at the low fan setting

I purchased this dehumidifier and went for the premium price tag because I needed a unit that would pump and drain the bucket automatically (secondary residence, not there to empty bucket). It arrived mid-June, we set it up the following week and left, only to return the following weekend and find the "bucket full" light illuminated. At this point, I contacted Winix in an effort to troubleshoot and hopefully fix the problem. After a few rounds and emails, Winix offered to have the unit picked up and tested in their facilities and sent a replacement for us to use in the meantime. The replacement pumped, but only sporadically at best. The pump would activate and drain three times, then not work at all. One week we'd find the bucket drained, the next, the light would be on. In between we literally had to suck on the end of the drain hose to prime the pump, after which it would start. After two months of back and forth with Winix (very customer friendly, high marks for customer service -the product is not good), I thanked the customer service rep, but suggested that we call it quits and be allowed to return the unit for a refund. She referred me back to Kitty Hawk Enterprises (apparently an online division of Costco) and said I should have no problem getting a refund -that between our email correspondence and confirmation from Winix that we made a valiant effort to try and resolve the problem with the manufacturer, there should be no issue at all. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Kitty Hawk refused to bend on the 30-day return and would not even look at the correspondence or contact Winix to confirm all of our efforts. We thought we did the right thing by going to the vendor, but KH informed us that we should have also contacted them and would not budge. I spoke with Amazon directly and the agent, who completely concurred that a credit was in order, initiated an A to Z guarantee claim. But, I just got a message that we were 13 days beyond the time frame for that as well. I am surprised, as I have always found Costco to be very customer friendly. This contact was downright hostile and rude -I'm thinking of calling Costco headquarters to relay the story and see what they say. Very unhappy to be out of pocket for over $350 for a product that never worked. Overall, a good dehumidifier, except for the pump. Reading all the other reviews of this and other brands and models with pumps, this seems to be a feature that is notoriously unreliable in all makes and models. I am going to try the Delonghi and I will purchase locally from Best Buy so that I can test it and easily return it if it doesn't work. A product category as unreliable as this one and difficult to ship (requiring time for back and forth that eats up warranty period) is simply a huge mistake!

Buy Winix WDH871 70 Pint Dehumidifier with Built-In Pump White with Charcoal Grill Now

Got this to replace an existing dehumidifier in my basement. I chose this model because:

1. It has a built-in pump that empties into a sink (I do not have a drain on the floor)

2. Hi capacity per day

I cannot tell you how wonderful it is not to have to manually empty the bucket! And more importantly, it does not fill up and then turn itself off like my old unit did.

The unit does have some limitations:

1. Price is a bit higher, but I am willing to pay more for quality and suggest you do the same

2. The fan does seem to stay on and on and on and on... and it rarely shuts off, and even when it does, it is only for a short time.

3. It is quite loud. Do not expect to sleep, read, eat, watch TV, or anything else near this unit. On hi or on low, it is loud. I have mine in the basement, and it does not matter to me how loud it is because I am not down there much. If I was down there it would be a big problem for me.

The pros again:

It works quite well, solving the basement water issue

The built in pump

Seems solid

Triple boxed (!) so it arrived in perfect shape

I may buy a second one for my garage...

We've had a dehumidifier in our basement for over 2 years and it ran allllll the time. It finally quit and we bought this one. I was skeptical about it draining itself with the built-in pump, but it works fantastically. It is very quiet compared to the previous one. And it shuts itself off when the humidity level goes down so it's not running forever. I'm very pleased with this product.

21st Century B24A2 Universal Heat Distribution Plate

21st Century B24A2 Universal Heat Distribution PlateHave used the grill all summer and it seems to be doing a good job. Helps keep the flare up down.

I was ready to buy a new grill because the heat distribution plates had rusted out. The rest of the grill was in pretty good shape, but Sears wanted about $50 with shipping for new plates, about 25% the cost of an equivalent grill new. Got this universal set of heat distribution plates and they were easy to install. I only ding the plates a star as I now can't light my grill from above like I used to, the slots are too small. I now have to light from the side, which is they way you are supposed to anyway So maybe I am better off.

Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue Double Prong Bamboo Grilling Kabob Skewers 9-inch Long, Set of 16

Steven Raichlen Best of Barbecue Double Prong Bamboo Grilling Kabob Skewers 9-inch Long, Set of 16I have used these many times and truly enjoy using the product. Be sure to soak in water before using... they may also be washed after and re-used.

Ever BBQ scallops or shrimp and have them spin on the skewer? I bought these double pronged skewers at a local hardware store for years, but they stopped carrying them. Thank goodness I was able to find them at Amazon. They're bamboo, and as long as you don't burn them, they can be reused several times.

Nostalgia Electrics NGD-200 Non-stick Electric Griddle with Warming Drawer

Nostalgia Electrics NGD-200 Non-stick Electric Griddle with Warming DrawerI bought this same griddle from on sale and returned it immediately after opening the package. The unit is cheaply made (drawer and trim plastic is not substantial), the surface is not as large as most griddles, the surface was scratched, and the depth of the drawer might allow for a stack of one pancake. Great idea, poor product.

Having a large family, and owning several griddles in my lifetime, I know what is a good griddle and what is not and I would not recommend this griddle.

1. The design is poor the warming draw takes up the entire front, so the grease catcher has to be in the back, making it inaccessible if you would like to use some of the grease to cook in.

2. The warming drawer is a good idea, but if you pull it out enough to put something in, it comes off the tracks and is VERY difficult to put back on. Therefore, my warming drawer ends up sitting on the counter under the unit.

3. If I were designing a griddle, I would assume people would use it with the warming draw in the front where they can access it so why did they make this griddle with the cord facing the front so it is bending back on itself to plug it in??

4. All the edges are rounded, so there is not a place to break an egg.

If, after all these bad reviews, you choose to purchase this product, please do not follow the temperature guidelines in the owners manual all your food will burn! I can't have the dial any higher than 250 degrees, and then I have to watch it closely. I have burned whole batches of bacon, pancakes, and eggs.

This foods will burn before they are even cooked through!

I was given this item as a gift, and am slowly adjusting to it, but if you're looking to purchase a griddle, don't waste your money on this one!

Buy Nostalgia Electrics NGD-200 Non-stick Electric Griddle with Warming Drawer Now

The warmer on this grill is a laugh. It is way too small for us. Even though there are only two of us, we prefer our old grill (without the broken greaser catcher). We are able to make enough so that we can sit down and eat together. The way we interpreted the advertising it was much larger,

Read Best Reviews of Nostalgia Electrics NGD-200 Non-stick Electric Griddle with Warming Drawer Here

Get the Cuisinart, or some other better made griddle (with or without attached warmer) if you can afford and "heft" it, which I couldn't and can't.

Pros:

1) Price

2) Weight (I have autoimmune diseases, swollen hands, pain early, every day, so I can move the griddle and warmer without having to really "grasp" anything too tight or too heavy for me.)

3) Easy to wipe off if you're making pancakes (my husband is a vegetarian and I don't eat bacon, beef, sausage anytime but once a year, for my birthday, I like a prime rib, and I sure wouldn't fix it on this griddle).

I let it heat up really hot, wipe Country Crock on a paper towel, smear the griddle with it, being careful not to burn myself "too" much, and after I've got three 5-inch pancakes cooked completely and put in the warming drawer, I take the same piece of paper towel and sort of shove the little crispy pancake leftover pieces toward the back slot (my husband cleans up the griddle after it cools completely, and he says it's easy to do), make the next three 5-inch pancakes, and so on, until I've got 11-12--you can't completely control pancake batter spread, or at least I can't, so sometimes I get 11 and sometimes I get 12, but I never have more than three stacks across--the drawer won't hold any more than that.

4) This would be good for a dorm room--if the administration would let you have it in your room or for any single person just starting out. If you're eating something else, made in the microwave, on or in the stove--like the bacon or baked beans mentioned in an ad for this griddle--the warmer will hold (I counted) eleven 5-inch pancakes, stacked three to four high, and nothing else with them.

5) I'm not anxious making pancakes on this the way I was in a non-stick skillet when I had no way to stop the pancakes from getting dead cold in minutes, so I would serve my husband his first and eat after just like my mom used to do--and I felt left out, like a cook and waitress, not a wife and companion, while my husband relaxed over the newspaper and his breakfast.

OK, now for the cons:

1) The warmer, which was the second reason I bought this and not any other that I looked for--the first reason as noted above was the price--doesn't keep food "really warm" as the marketers imply, thought it does keep the pancakes from getting stone cold or even cool.

As my husband says, he can melt butter on his, so that's not "too" bad, but the warmer is made of thin plastic and set so low and loose under the griddle that when I touch it, it moved around, I can push in under further, which is a good thing, so the pancakes stay a little warmer than they would if I let the tray sit flush with the front of the griddle.

2) There is only enough "cooking area", as opposed to total area, for three 5-inch pancakes: one to the very left, one in the center, one to the very right. The manufacturers, based on engineer directions, I imagine, put an "inner frame" on top so you've got dead space, and with just the two of us, not being giant breakfast eaters, it takes me four batches--each batch kept in the iffy warmer below, to finish making our pancakes.

3) The temperature gauge is wonky. I have to put it up really high and then crack our front door (we live in Utah) to let the chemical smell dissipate. It does not wear off after the first use, and also to let the fumes from the non-stick surface mixed with very high heat, to not get trapped in our very small kitchen. Well, I do set it higher than indicated, pour the pancake batter carefully (left, right, center), and watch for the tops to bubble and the outside to dry "just enough" before flipping the pancakes over. (It shouldn't take so long to cook just 11-12 pancakes, and it didn't take me that long when I did them in a non-stick skillet, but as I said, I couldn't join my husband at the table to eat with him, so I prefer this griddle and it's luke-warmer to the alternative.

RECOMMENDATION:

If you can afford a Cuisinart or any other griddle that is made better, buy it. Then put one of those bread stones in a basket, stack your pancakes in the basket and cover them up with a heavy cloth. But if you're single, on a tight budget, have to handle the griddle yourself and can't lift heavy things as I cannot, and you're planning to make just pancakes, maybe some bacon, buy this until you can get the better, or best, on the market. This is definitely a make-do, stop-gap item; I wouldn't buy it for anyone else, but I'm grateful I can sit down with my husband to eat with him, and this particular griddle at this particular price allows me to do that.

~ Carolyn Elkins

Want Nostalgia Electrics NGD-200 Non-stick Electric Griddle with Warming Drawer Discount?

The aluminum is thinner than in my old griddle; this one heats up faster but the heat distribution is not uniform, To get any kind of uniformity you can only cook 3-4 pancakes at a time placed down the middle of the heating surface (between the heating element) even then, the middle of the pancakes are lighter in color (because the center is farthest away from the heating element). For some reason the griddle is "not submergible" so cleaning between the griddle and the plastic heat guard surrounding the entire heating surface is tedious and time consuming.

You get what you pay for. In hindsight I would have been much happier spending the extra money and getting a better designed, heavier duty griddle--I do not recommend this griddle; actually, I'm generous in giving it two stars.

King Kooker 26PK 26-Quart Aluminum Turkey Pot with Lid, Lifting Rack and Hook

King Kooker 26PK 26-Quart Aluminum Turkey Pot with Lid, Lifting Rack and HookLast turkey day I bought something like this at a local store for so much more.

After buying it I realized that I need one of those hook things to lower and raise the bird from the oil. I came to Amazon to look for a hook and found this pot for so much less than what I paid and it included the hook I was looking for.

I was able to cook a 15lbs and 18lbs turkey in this (they were snug in there without touching the sides and cooked fine). I like how the pot has higher walls than the one I originally had which makes it a bit safer when the oil level rises and splashes.

The thermometer is not included like the picture.

Camp Chef Campsite Popcorn Popper

Camp Chef Campsite Popcorn PopperThe handle that screws in to the lid fell off in about ten minutes, the wooden handle having been stripped inside by the metal of the screw. This was followed by the paint being stripped off after I cleaned it up a bit. I regret this purchase.

The product has been completely redesigned over a year ago and I got a chance to test this product.

The handle is longer and better quality wood and the box is great quality.

Positives: Long handle

Big Capacity

fun for big groups

Cons: just like roasting marshmallows if you get it too hot it will burn on the bottom. After testing it a few times, we found a tip is to let it pop until you the popping slows down, shake it a bit and pull it off until it stops popping.

We sprinkled salt and lime on the popcorn and it was a great late night snack.

Great for backyard or campouts. Tastes better than microwave. Canola spray, heat it up, throw a few kernels in, when they pop it's ready for use. Pop corn and enjoy. Suggestion, use a splatter screen and cooking mitts for safeties sake, common sense. Seasoned salt, too.
