Tool Set Reviews

A great product just as advertised.

This set is SO handy! My mom has one and after trying hers I am hooked. :) I have just ordered one for myself.

I purchased the clear version of these Wine Stoppers. However, it also comes in black and blue.

This item is great to preserve your favorites wines, so you don't lose the flavor and have to throw out any wine that you do not use the same night you pop the cork(s).

It is designed to work with the Swissmar's wine preserving vacuum pump. I received four with my pump set, but needed more to store more varieties....

At last, a practical way to preserve our wine. We have tried many systems and sprays. These stoppers are durable, effective and easy to use. The best we have found! Thanks!

These are high quality little wine charms, in various colors that make it easier to remember which charm is yours. I was concerned that the charms would scratch the wine glasses, or would be in the way when drinking, but they don't scratch, and they're not annoying at all. They're quite charming.

Wine Charms are so popular right now, and these ones are some of the best. I love all the ones by That Wine Is Mine. They do a nice job making the charms intricate and pretty. One thing I really like about these ones is that they're colorful. Often they're just silver or gold. These look very pretty around the stems of my wineglasses.

I was looking for a hobby and wanted to try cake decorating. This set got me started with everything I needed. I was able to make my first cake within days and am very happy I bought this. Great for a beginner like me.

This is a great cake decorating kit. The materials include all the things an amuture cake decorator would need to create world class masterpiece cakes. The booklet included in the kit gave such good tips for making the perfect cake for frosting, things like how to creat the uniform shape of the cake just like the pros do. The booklet even goes as far as to point out the specific consistances needed for the frosting decorations, something which would be very hard as a beginner to figure out on one's own. The kit also teaches the teckniques required for an assortment of different styles. Another good thing about the kit is that included in the box are frosting dye colors for the professional look to all cakes. The how to guide gives very explicet instructions on the use of such dyes, so there is very little room for error using them. I like how the pastry bags that are included are disposable, so it is less hassle during clean-up. The kit also comes with an abundant amount of these bags, so you don't have to constantly turn around and buy more. I tried this kit with high hope and expectations, and i was not dissapointed. I am not the greatest cook in the world, but the cake turned out beautifully! Beginner's luck, perhaps, but I doubt it. I felt like a true artist when making the cake for our Fourth of July party, and I got rave reviews myself!

If you must have the best, this is it. I have yet to see a set of outdoor cooking tools that can beat the quality of this one. The tools have a solid feel to them, and a nice shape with all rounded edges. The stainless steel is polished to a mirror finish. The one piece solid steel construction makes these sure to last a lifetime. I challenge anyone who can locate a better set of tools to post the link in a review below.

These spoons are great. They are very sturdy and easy to use, and the finish on the metal is a nice touch. Overall, practical and attractive.

Nice cutters-solidly made, tall enough, and easy to clean. What more can you want?

I bought two bamboo steamers--first the Norpro one, and then this one. Side by side, the difference in quality is apparent. The Typhoon one is lovely--all natural materials, very cleanly and precisely put together, with study pieces of bamboo (as opposed to the thin strips that almost all other steamers have) forming the base of each steamer section. The bamboo sides are smooth and sturdy.

The Norpro, by contrast, is rougher, has copper wire fastening the layers of bamboo that comprise the sides together, and is a bit sloppily made. It is not awful, just noticeably not as well made as the Typhoon product.

I'd say the Norpro one is average quality, and is fine if you are just going to use a bamboo steamer once in awhile. If you expect to use your steamer often or plan to keep it for a long time (or just prefer to buy good quality items), the Typhoon is really, I think, a very good choice. I have looked at other brands since, but have not seem one as nice (and, I gave away my Norpro).

These work very well...they live up to their makers name. I recommend then very highly. I cook most meals on my grill and these are far better than my cheap "grocery store" skewers or the bamboo skewers that I used prior to purchasing this item. I have high hopes that these will last me a long time, and by the way that they have held up so far, I am not to worried about being dissappointed.
