What a great looking unit -- too bad the sleek stainless steel outside hides a lousy inside!
My wife and I have been looking a more updated unit to replace our 15 year old electric range oven. We thought we found a unit that was both functional, sleek and useful. For the two months that the unit worked, it was actually a great range oven. We found ourselves using the upper oven (although smaller of the two) more than 95% of the time. It heated up quickly and baked evenly. The stove top is also designed thoughtfully and the control unit, while not as advanced as some other units, was very functional and surprisingly intuitive to use.
The unit broke down after just two months of use (bought on Sep 10, 2010 and broke on Nov 4, 2010). The unit shut down completely and when it re-powered, the "door locked" indicator was on. While the stove top was still functional, neither of the ovens were. The GE technician looked at the unit for about three minutes, ordered a bunch of parts and left. The follow up appointment was rescheduled by dispatch, without notification. GE Customer Service was useless (but at least they all spoke English). Now we're stuck without an oven for Thanksgiving holidays with family coming to town. Will call the store we bought the unit from and see if we can return it. Searching around there are more reports of control board circuit boards being "fried" by the oven, so this is not an isolated incident. Do not buy this unit until the problem is resolved.

Proctor Silex Traditions 74388 Electric Knife, White Review

Proctor Silex Traditions 74388 Electric Knife, White

(More customer reviews)
This knife was purchased to replace an eons old Sunbeam Electric Knife. This Proctor Silex is heavy and too large in diameter - not for arthritic hands - and the first use to slice an Artisan Loaf of bread was such a trial that I gave it up and used my regular bread knife. This was not purchased from Amazon but rather from a local retailer and now I'm shopping Amazon to find a good electric knife - which is what I should have done in the first place. Hope the Amazon reviewers of electric knives are telling their true opinions of the electric knives recently purchased.

Overall, a nice cooker at a good price.
Just wish the company would do a prior
burn-off of the cooking pan before
shipping to customer. Very nasty,
especially when outdoor space to do
it is limited.

Functioning as a portable second oven, this 18-quart electric roaster oven not only roasts, but it also bakes, cooks, steams, slow cooks, and more. Use it to roast a whole turkey up to 22 pounds; bake cookies, cakes, pies, and quiche; cook soups, stews, lasagna, and hot dishes; steam/poach vegetables, seafood, and poultry; slow cook less tender cuts of meat; or put it to use as a serving dish at a buffet or potluck. The oven's automatic temperature control helps to maintain a constant set temperature from 200 to 450 degrees F, while its exclusive "Circle of Heat" heating element wraps around the sides of the unit, not the bottom, to ensure moist, even cooking results. The roaster's design also includes a domed self-basting cover to help retain moisture, a chrome steel rack with handles for safe removal/insertion of food, cool-touch side handles for convenient transport, and a removable porcelain cookwell that cleans easily. A use-and-care guide with recipes comes included. An optional buffet serving kit can be purchased separately for turning the appliance into a food warmer with the capacity to serve three appetizers or meal items at once. Attractively housed in durable stainless steel, the 1425-watt roaster oven measures approximately 24-1/2 by 16-1/2 by 9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Quilted Ivory Kitchen Aid Extra Large Mixer Appliance Cover Review

Quilted Ivory Kitchen Aid Extra Large Mixer Appliance Cover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had been looking for reasonably priced appliance covers for my kitchen in unobtrusive, non-clashing colors for quite some time when I decided to buy several of them from Altmeier's BedBathHome shop at Amazon. The items I got were fine and fit my appliances perfectly, but this is more a review of the vendor than the items themselves. (I couldn't find a way to update my "customer feedback" for the vendor after having further experience with them.)
When I received the items I ordered through Amazon I also received a coupon I could use if I shopped at the vendor's web site. Since it turned out that the cover I bought for my mixer was also a good fit for my slow cooker, I decided to go to the site and use the coupon there. I ordered another cover plus a few additional items - one of which I inadvertently selected in the wrong color when placing my order. I didn't realize my mistake until the items arrived, at which point I followed the included instructions regarding returns and exchanges and filled out the online form to request an exchange. Since the mix-up was my error I would've been perfectly happy to pay all the additional shipping costs involved in the process.
I requested the exchange on a Friday evening and on Monday received an email letting me know it was "in the works" - then I received a link to the return shipping label that they had already set up at UPS. I printed out the label, returned the item I had, and within a few days had the one I wanted back in exchange for it. And, much to my surprise, I was not charged any additional shipping costs for either item and the question of additional shipping charges was never even mentioned in any of the customer service correspondence even though the mistake was clearly mine and mine alone.
As a result, Altmeier's BedBathHome has a new customer who will definitely be checking out their products first, both at their own site and here at Amazon, when I am looking to make future purchases. An A+ experience all around!

Staub Round Cocotte Review

Staub Round Cocotte

I have to admit, having used Le Creuset for years, I didn't hold out much hope that this pot - gifted to me - could possibly be an improvement. The things that I value in an enameled pot were there: heavy enameled, cast iron construction; oven-proof handle; even heat distribution; gas stove-top to oven ease. But that lid? It just didn't seem like it would make that much difference. Boy! Am I happy to be proved wrong!
This pot has out-performed my Le Creuset repeatedly in the two weeks that I've put it through its paces. Sautéeing, braising, stewing, oven-baked casseroles, soup; you name it, this pot has done an exceptional job. Those little bumps on the lid keep everything so much more moist. Also, there is virtually no loss of liquid volume with the lid on. It's an incredibly tight seal. The clean-up is a breeze! And, esthetically, the grenadine glaze is gorgeous!
It is so worth the price, I just purchased the 8 quart round Cocotte for large-batch cooking. I'm definitely a convert!
