Apron Reviews

Nice color, pretty good coverage (all of the bottom half to below my knees, around my sides, and almost up to my chin, maybe three or four inches below), and completely washable with nothing to rust or break. Plenty of room to wipe my hands off.

This apron is very cute -- and functional, too. My mother gave me one as a gift and I will definitely use it.

Once again the time had come. August of every year, the month when Mr.Bits must defend his crown: The 2000 National Lentil Festival Cook-Off Grand Champion. You'd be surprised at the conniving and politics that surrounds an event of such caliber. The solitary fact that as Grand Champion I get free lentils for the entire year attracts a great number of fair weather friends. Location: Pullman, Washington. I had already spent a great deal of time collecting my thoughts on a rock steady new recipe to sustain my 1999 title. Sure, it all started out as a fun little social commentary about the injustice of the banana industry claiming to be the kings of good nutrition and potassium (did you know that a serving of lentils provides 360mg of potassium?), but now this has grown into battle to uphold my honor. I didn't want to stand on that Festival Parade Grand Champion float unless I had done my best. This year posed a completely new set of challenges. The estimated advertising revenue the festival was projected to make was staggering. The National Bean and Lentil Coalition must have done some to serious bargaining to lure this year's judges away from sunny Burbank, CA and their backset "Jeopardy!" jobs. Talk about strict, when these people say mashed lentils, they mean mashed lentils! Last year, contender, Patrico Rea was disqualified because of an insulting submission of lentil clumps. All these pressures combined with the hopes and dreams of local Lentil farmers placed a great deal of pressure on me. Failure was not an option; I needed the perfect ingredients, perfect equipment, and the perfect recipe. On a routine daily visit to ..., I noticed the Weber 124 BBQ Apron in the ... Recommendations Section. I like the fact that Weber named it The 124 Barbecue Apron. You see, people expect 3 to follow 2, (1,2,3), but they don't expect 4. Something unexpected, unpredictable, it embodied all I wanted to say with my lentil recipe. This was a much-needed stroke of luck, due to the intense heat and danger created by my patent-pending procedure of cooking my lentils with super-heated steam; the dense twill fiber really saved the day. When the decisive moment came, The Judges came to try my "Mango Home Jamaican Me Crazy Lentil Chili". As they lifted their bowls, I flipped my Weber 124 Apron backwards as though it was a cape. The Judges chewed, paused, and looked at each other for what seems an eon. Silence... Next, they looked at each other, swallowed, and then smiled and exhaled in a choir of MMMMMs (that's right five "M"s!). The crowd loved my apron/cape trick and subsequently went wild! I cannot give the cape all the credit, after all, it was my recipe, but the apron did make me feel like a winner, or should I say Grand Champion.

I would like to the fine folks at Weber and ... -Meesta Bits 2001

This is a nice, quality product. I really like the long ties and large front pocket.

I've been looking for a nice apron that wasn't too expensive, and this is as close as I could find. This apron is really roomy - I'm a little chunky and I can still wrap the ties around my back and tie in front.

The only thing that I don't like is the care instructions. The apron has to be washed in cold water and you can't use fabric softener or softener sheets. I guess the absorbancy of the fabric would be compromised as would the stain resistance.

Everyone needs a good apron. It is so frustrating to be preparing a meal for guests and the last minute prepartions splatter on your clothes and make you look like a slob to your guests. Just slip this apron on before going into the kitchen and you are protected against those splashes and splatters that will inevitably happen! And easy to clean too!

Nice apron, but I would not recommend doing business with Kitchen's Etc. Order placed first week of December 2003, while apron was in stock. It wasn't even shipped until January 3rd 2004. I emailed asking for an explanation, and they never responded. I am sure they don't care much about a $5 shipping charge on a $15 apron, but they will not be receiving any more business from me. Bad customer service.
