Best coffee brewing method I have ever used. This is the first french press I have ever tried, and it is fabulous. Coffee brewed in this is far superior to drip and vacuum methods that I have experimented with. Produces full bodied, hot (yet smooth) coffee. This pot is sleek and attractive- takes up much less space than a drip machine, and is easy to clean. When filled to the brim, produces about 44 oz of coffee (less than you may think from the 12 cup description).

My son has had this set since he was 1 year old, and more than a year later he still loves to look at the pictures and talk about the different food items. The sippy cup has been great even without the top, as a training cup since it has handles on either side. I don't have to worry about this set breaking, and the designs have not faded or scratched at all.
Overall, a fun way to feed your kids!

Great and cheap! Great to kill the mosquitoe larva and safe for the other wildlife. We have a spring pond with fish and turtles but have several marshy ponds that breed mosquitoes. I break up the dunks or combined them for the size of pond to treat without having to worry that it will harm the other wildlife. Really has helped to reduce the mosquitoe population.

I always have a few of these in a drawer to occupy my dogs when I have company over or when I'm serving dinner to guests.

My dogs always want to greet people and give them the royal inspection - which is only proper, since it's their house, too!

Sometimes, however, they can be a little too excited and really overwhelm even the most patient dog lover. When they get really bonkers, I give them each one of these mild Booda velvet bones.

The bones are very mild and even though they are a rare treat, they never get upset tummies because of them. The unusual texture keeps them occupied for nearly 30 minutes - since they start to lick, then to chew, then to gnaw - they just don't know the best way to tackle this odd bone.

Also, no offensive rawhide like odors and even the colored bones do not stain your pet's fur or your rug, and the bone doesn't get sticky, so you don't have to worry about it getting glued to your carpet or your kids.

These glasses look so much prettier in person than they do online. They make your table look like you spent a fortune on glassware, and are the perfect size!

Having owned both Bormioli glasses and jars, I can't think of a brand that is more charming and practical. The designs are classic and wear is unbeatable. These items are not easily found in department stores, so get them whereever you can. The jars are beautiful enough to grace display shelves and make lovely gifts.

Most people expect a blender to blend with a minimum of fuss and a maximum of efficiency. The BOSCH MMB 2000 blender does this, even if the price seems a tad high. One of the problems in choosing a blender is that its function is well, just performing one task. There are much cheaper models that do that, so how can Bosch justify the elevated price tag? First, the solidity of the construction is a function of its utility. Most cheap blenders are plastic things that look, sound, and work on the cheap. Why pay 30 to 40 dollars for a blender that does not do the job as thoroughly as a powerhouse like this one? Further, the BOSCH 2000 is an imposing and heavy piece of equipment that promises years of faithful service. I have crunched ice cubes in quick time and have made puree with no trouble. The cleanup time is minimal and easy. Finally, the customer service is fast and ready to make any adjustments (I had a minor problem that it corrected in only a few days). For those who like fruity smoothies, batter mixes, and wish to avoid extensive cleanups, the BOSCH MMB2000 at $139 is the right tool at the right price.

This kitchen machine (it is much more than a mixer and a blender) is one of the best things I've bought for my kitchen. The design of every accessory and part is superb. There is so much attention being given to detail. I have the slicer/shredder and the juicer, on top of the included mixer and blender. I highly recommend this to anyone.

I don't understand why the KitchenAid machines sell so much better. They are slightly cheaper, but are not as versatile or as powerful (or, as well designed). Don't get me wrong--the KA machines are nice machines, but this one blows them out of the kitchen by any measure.

Dropped it and it didn't break, pretty thickly made, solid thick colors, and pretty darn cute for a big fat cow on my range top. It even has bright red lips. Stylish for a cow!

Something for someone who has just about everything for entertaining but is looking for that little bit "extra". Adds beauty to a cheeseplate (use paper leaves for an added "fall" touch) and serve with these lovely knives. I have had many compliments on my own set from guests who like being treated special!
