Kitchen Reviews

We have had this waffle maker for about a month and we love it! It heats fast than I can make the batter! Makes waffles quickly, which is perfect for a family of four. YES it is pricey but well worth it.

This product makes four belgian waffle at once, is nonstick. You should wipe the inside with oil before each use to make sure nothing sticks. It is 1500 watts and gets very hot. Word of warning if you have an older electrical system make sure you dont have to much plugged in at the same time. I have blown the fuse a couple of times. There are two lights one(red) that shows it is on and a second(green) when hot. The green light goes off when you add batter and comes back on when done.

Just one note: this was the first time I made waffles and it took a little time to learn the timeing and such.

I LOVE THIS WAFFLE IRON, IT PERFORMED WELL, CLEANED UP EASLIY.
MY FAMILY WAS IMPRESSED WITH MY SKILL.....LITTLE DID THEY KNOW.

I mention the price, but I received this as a gift. I can't imagine personally spending this much for a product like this. While this is much larger than the largest toaster ovens, it is considerable smaller than a regular oven. Thus, none of our pans fit in this oven. It looks nice, cooks very well and the controls are fairly self-explanatory and functional. However, I'm still not sure who this product is intended for. If you have this much room in your kitchen, you should probably just get a second built-in stove. If you have a small kitchen, you're going to be seriously challenged to find room for this stove.

This is a terrific product. It looks great and performs very well. I have used the rotisserie with great success for turkey and roasts of all kinds. I am also using the 'keep warm' feature to keep plates hot while I finish one last thing before I get the whole meal on the table. Lastly, it is so great for holidays because you can bake a pie or other side and keep your regular oven working on the bird. It heats up quickly and is very easy to use.

We use the DeLonghi Convection Oven every day and think it is great. However, the interior is not just difficult to clean, it is impossible! Also, it is just a little too small. We will definitely purchase another convection oven in the future, but will look for one a little larger with a self-cleaning interior.

I have owned this oven for about three years and it is still being used on a daily basis. It does a terrific job toasting bread and bagels. It cooks a little hot, so I just decrease the usual cooking temperature by 25 degrees. It provides very even heat on the convect setting and on the bake setting. It is perfect size to bake pies. This oven does not accomodate a chicken, or anything large or tall. If you purchase this oven for the use it is intended, it is a great second oven. I now only use my wall oven for special occasions.

What I initially liked about this machine is the fact that I could use it off the stovetop and it really is not a counter hog--I bought it for my office, actually. I was surprised at how piping hot the coffee can get in it. All in all, it works well. Realize, too, this moka brew is definately a step down in flavor from traditionally brewed espresso (from a pump-driven machine). I recommend it.

THIS LITTLE BEAUTY HAS THE"SPEED YA'NEED" FOR THAT QUICK CUP OF ESPRESSO. OK SO IT DOESN'T GIVE THE FROTHY HEAD MANY OF US LIKE BUT IT DOESN'T TAKE UP HALF YOUR KITCHEN COUNTER SPACE EITHER! A NEAT COMPACT ITEM.

It does the job. Use it to pick up dirt, hair & things. Keeps a charge fine. Nice slick design. Handy little dustbuster...good value for the twenty dollars I spent. Huzzah.

It's true value for money.Quite handy and easy to use on Sofa,bed where you do not want to use your regular vacuum.It's pretty light weight too.With the two select speed you can use it with other surfaces too.Won't replace your bigger vacuum but handy,easy to clean,light weight.

Good to have it as a second vacuum.

Bought this because i didn't want to be eating plastic. However, there is no "give" to this turner and everything gets stuck in the holes which are difficult to clean. The holes aren't Emeril's fault, of course, but I was naive to think the oil would fall through them. Whatever does is minimal that you're better off getting the solid turner.

Keeping the '3 star reviews' in the back of my mind as I purchased and first used this new slotted turner, I found 5+ stars to be the absulute review rating for this item. It fits the appropriate pan side perfectly for turning and stiring food. I just love this turner! The holes are great and don't get clogged or make it hard to clean. This item gets an A+ from me!
Thanks Emeril!!

I agree that the shape is nice, but I melted the edge on the first time out, just pressing it against the pan to separate some conjoined pancakes. I don't know what this is made of, but it isn't nearly as sturdy as the silicone spatulas I typically use.

I'll admit, I had to learn how to use this "turner" because of its shape, but now I realize that it's far better than any spatula I've ever had. I can actually flip a burger now!! (something I could never do before) I've got to check out more Emerilware. You will not be disappointed -- this spatula is definitely worth it.

We received our Eureka 4880BT and couldn't wait to try it out. After doing the living room and bedroom carpets, the amount of dog hair this machine sucked up, from what we thought were clean carpets, was nothing short of amazing. But even more, the fine dust and dirt particals this vacuum cleans up is fantastic.
If I were to have one complaint about the vacuum, it would have to be the switch for selecting either carpet or hard surfaces. It's kind of cheap in quality compared to the rest of the vacuum, as is the foot switch which unlocks the handle from the locked upright position.

My reccomendation is, if you're waivering between a bagless vacuum and one that needs bags, spend the extra dollars to go bagless. This machine sucks up such huge amounts, that going bagless will pay for its self in no time at all.

This is my first Eureka, being a former Hoover consumer, but all I can say is "Eureka" we made the right choice!

A great vacuum in a long line of great vacuums' from Eureka! I have researched different vacuums for the past 3 months by searching different review boards. I found that the Eureka 4880 series had the least amount of problems. The 4880BT (not really sure what the BT means) was easy to assemble right out of the box. I opted for the 4880 -vs- the 4885 because I felt that I really did not need the dirt sensor and I did not want to miss out on the rebate from Eureka.

Pros:

Tremendous suction!! Be careful or you will suck in throw rugs
Ease of use
Surprising quiet
Mult-part filtration
Very nice cyclonic action
Super long cord and hose
Can purchase a washable HEPA filter!!

Cons:
Really, be careful or you WILL suck in throw rugs!
Dirt cup removal can be a little tricky
Hard to find any of the 4880 series of vacuums to purchase. The Eureka web site is so out of date you have a hard time finding any of their new vacuums.

I bought this item because of the good review of the previous user, and she is right! I used this vacuum to clean my bathroom, kitchen, and stairs. It is very powerful and the surfaces have never looked this much better. Its dust-collected cup seems small, but it can hold a lot of stuff.

The minor flaw is that it is quite noisy and its cord seems to be shorter than I would like. But definitely it is worth the money and it does its job.

First, I am a fan of Eureka vaccums. The canister model I own is 14 years old and has always been a workhorse, so you can consider me prejudiced about this brand name and the review that follows.

I bought this little "baby" two months ago and I waited to review until I had used the machine a number of times. Having used several of the dustbusters over the years, I can compare. Yes, this Eureka has a cord--but it is a *very* long cord--so it is not limiting. It is a powerful vaccum which I do not find to be loud or high-pitched. It is for small jobs when lugging out the big machine is too much of a bother.

I just used it to clean the lint from the back of the dryer, which is in a small confined space and it has always been difficult to get the big vaccum back there. This little Eureka did a fabulous job getting all the stuck-together lint both deep inside the back of the dryer and around it: the floors and walls too!

The cup is easy to remove and clean, just rinse or spritz a little cleaner on it. It holds a surprising amount of "junk".
Yes, the machine can get "hot" but so do full size vacs; I do not consider that an issue. I have used it when vacuuming the ceiling--I now live in the southwest and the ceilings are a problem--and was very happy with the lightness of holding the vac while working and standing on a step ladder.

Downside: storing the long cord. I still haven't figured out how to wrap it or quite what to do with it yet. The extension hose is a useful attachment but the plastic could be a slightly better grade.

I bought this vac because the price was so low and decided to give it a try. I am very pleased that I did.

This does a really good job of cleaning, but the designers seem to have overlooked ease of use when they came up with this pricey, albeit sleek-looking, machine. Detaching and re-attaching the motorized nozzle in order to use the bare floor brush (for hard-to-reach areas) and the other attachments is a true pain. Each part of the cleaning wand and the nozzle locks with a button, and pressing this button down in order to detach the various attachments will take the better part of your day, and have you cursing after a while. Further, the motor on the carpet cleaner dies out every so often because the connection on the hose gets loose -- you need to keep the arc of the hose steady so the carpet cleaner stays on, or fidget once in a while with the hose to get it at the right angle. I wished I had not fallen for the sales pitch so easily. It's a good idea to try assembling and disassembling the various components of this machine in the store before you spend the equivalent of a small fortune on it. Or maybe you have stronger fingers than I do, but I doubt it.

This is a wonderful appliance. It has stylishly designed neo-modernist chassis, a wildly powerful motor, and excellent hepa features. If you are involved with someone who claims to have dust allergies and refuses to do housework, this is a perfect gift -- it will clear their sinuses while they are cleaning the house. But, needless to say, it makes cleaning so much fun, that you'll fight over the right to use it!
