These trays are wonderful for getting your guests to mingle with their munchies! I wouldn't let them sit dirty for hours while you have dinner, but they are easy to hand wash quickly and air dry while you are having dinner. No warping yet. They may need a little more TLC than paper plates, but well worth the effort. Your neighbors will be jealous!

If you are serious about the quality of the coffee you drink, then you know that the beans must be fresh-ground right before brewing. The beans must also be uniformly ground to prevent over- or underextraction of coffee oils during the brewing process. A burr grinder, as opposed to a blade grinder, achieves a uniform grind since the beans only pass through its burrs once. This Capresso grinder has commercial-grade conical burrs that reduce the generation of heat which can ruin the flavor of the coffee. I like the fact that the bean container holds a generous half pounds of beans, so you can fill it and forget it for morning after morning of perfect coffee. The 16 grind settings allow grinds for every coffeemaker and blend. Cleaning the unit is a breeze. The top burr is easily removable, and the unit can then be cleaned with the included brush. The grinder operation is quiet. If I have any complaint, it is that the timer, marked from 1 to 10, is hard to correlate with grind time and the resultant amount of ground coffee. Although the fineness of the grind makes grind times vary, the enclosed booklet, which has tips for use, should have included some guidelines for timer/grind settings/yield to minimize the guesswork. I recommend this grinder for the coffee gourmet.

Chances are if you have a coffee maker that takes a #2 cone style filter, you're having a tough time finding a permanent filter that doesn't cost as much as the coffee maker did! Here ya go. It's the right size and costs half as much (even with shipping) as anything else I could find.

I am remodeling my kitchen and have a new copper faucet, all oak cabinets and all white tile counter and walls. I am buying all copper cookware and looking for other copper and brass accessories. This laddle is not only useful but will grace my wall. Thank you for designing it for me.

I love these things. I have a hard time finding them in the stores though. I use the small ones to clamp my appliance power cords into nice neat bundles for storage in between use. They are wonderful. So easy to use too. I use the big ones on larger applicances like room fans and such that don't have self cord storage. I have a habbit of over stressing them by making the cord bundles as small as possible and almost overstretching their capacity. Still they last a long time and the ones I have broken, I knew I was over doing it. I recently got some new appliances with out power cord storage and when I finally found these here, I bought three sets, so I will have plenty to spare.

I love this thing. It is fast, easy, efficient, and a blast to use. It is surprising how easy it is, and you can impress people since very few have ever seen anything like it. Press the needle through the cork all the way in, press the end to release the gas, and the cork pops out immediately sounding like a champagne bottle. It really is quite the thing.

I bought this on sunday, along with the rolling cart to match, and I love them! They were very easy to assemble, and they look great! The shelves are large enough for 12 x 12 papers, and there is room for albums too! It is a good height to set things on and look through. If you're thinking about getting this, I would! It will hold a lot of supplies!

This disk blade will make the string shape potatoes and fruits that we all love. The potatoes and fruit will come out firm straight. Not mash or wiggling like a French yellow bowl of ... The potatoes goes right through the disk blade and never backup or bend.

This is a great product! I was given a DCL-7 Series Cuisinart food processer and it was missing the slicing blades. These fit and the savings was incredible. They slice and shred perfectly. I was impressed. I can't wait to get the specialty blades.

I've been using the Dirt Devil hand held vac for at least 12 yrs., I would not be without one! I'm going on my second now, mine just died. The paper bag adapter is essential, it beats going outside and standing there beating the bag against the wall being engulfed with dust. With the bag adapter you just simply toss it out and replace it. Also, it lasts a long time between changing.
