Kitchen Reviews

With a househould full of animals (literally! 2 cats, a dog, a 10 year old blue crown conure, and 14 chinchillas) I really rely on this unit to help keep the dust and animal dander down in my home. It is a compact, yet VERY efficient, unit that has a special design to allow air to be circulated 360 degrees. The replacement filters and pre-filters are affordably priced, but I have found that cleaning them with the vacumn once a week extends their life by quite a bit.

I also have friends who are senstive to animal dander and having these purifiers in my home have helped cut down on dander so tremendously that my sensitve friends can now enjoy the time they spend in my home without having to worry about their allergies flaring up.

I haven't had mine for long but I can say there's a distinct difference in the air I breath. It's smells and feels better. My nephew now wakes up from his nap without a stuffy or runny nose. The noise from the fan is minimal and soothing so it helps him to get to sleep as well. Great product at reasonable cost.

I have 2 large dogs,2 cats, 2 VERY dusty birds and allergies...all in a 2 bedroom apartment. This hepa filter has been a God send. It is absolutely quiet,so I can run in on the high setting and still sleep well. The carbon filters are relatively inexpensive and the HEPA does not need to be replaced often. I have had other types of filters in the past ,they were loud and heavy and this one is small and quiet and does just as good a job.

I bought these for my wife for her birthday. Its amazing how sharp they are and how easy they will cut almost anything. Im very impressed at the quality and the beauty.

I just received these knives as a wedding present and they are not only really great knives, but they look good! I would recommend these to anyone. They are definitely worth the money, and go well with the steak knives, too!

These are by far the best knives around! I highly recommend any and all of them.

Speed through ironing and remove all wrinkles in record time. A waste of money? You don't need an ironing board or an iron and you'll save a lot of time and will not damage your clothes. I bought this because ironing is tough to do unless you have a lot of patience and experience. No more shiny pants from too hot ironing. In fact it's fun to use.

Now my confession. I took a $2000 pair of drapes, and put them in the washer (cold cycle) and then the drier (for linens). Duh! I did it because they were yellow from smoke and if I was going to spend hundreds, I would spend another $2000 if the experiment didn't work. Hadn't had them cleaned in five years. The drapes were clean as a whistle, but wrinkled like a prune. The Jiffy Steamer dewringled them in 20 minutes flat after they were rehung.

The unit arrived with a broken caster. One phone call to customer service and a new one arrived in three days, and they didn't ask for the serial or model number.

Wait! There's more. I have a DeLonghi Steam Cleaner (I give it four stars), but I decided to use the garment steamer to remove grease from my George Foreman grill. That's because the garment cleaner head is hotter than hell on contact. It cleaned the grill fast! Encouraged, I used it to steam grease out of the oven. Worked fast! Then I used it to remove grease and old food from the rubber matts that line the sinks. Within a few seconds it actually boiled the residual water that lay in the sink! I took a tea bag and made tea with the boiled! OK. Now I'm lying.

The Jiffy garment steamer is a great appliance to own. You can easily steam shirts, pants or any garment in a fraction of the time necessary for ironing. This product does not damage fine garments such a silk or linen like an iron can. It easily removes wrinkles from all types of fabrics and is easy to take care of. Just change the water routinely and let the steam flow. I use my Jiffy Steamer every day and I wish I owned a travel model as well!!

I have always dreaded the chore of ironing (who doesn't?), but, as a working-profesional, had to either iron my own clothes, or put up with expensive trips to the dry cleaner. Then I came across the Jiffy Steamer J-2000 while shopping at my favorite store. It's the wrinkle-removing steamer that the profesionals use, and it has literally changed my life. No longer do I have to haul out the ironing board - now, in just minutes, I effortlessly steam away wrinkles, and my clothes look dry-cleaner fresh. Everyone needs one of these in their home!

I got this pan as part of a set on the Friday Sale. It is light weight yet very durable. Easy cleaning. Highly recommend this brand.

This pan makes great muffins. It is make out of such a high quality metal, that you can reduce your cooling time by 10%...I think that speaks miles about the quality of this pan!

I have all my bakeware from Kaiser la forme, the muffin pan is a must in a german/american household. I had several other muffinpans from different brands but I sold them all at the last yardsale since I am only using my Kaiser muffin pan. It has also a 5 year warrenty and I know that the bakeware is good alot longer then that.

I got this set for my birthday. The large stock pot is perfect for a family of four. It is large enough to make just the right amount ot stew. The hard exterior keeps the heat distributed so that is has perfect even cooking. It is sturdy & I don't think I will ever have to worry about the handles coming off of the pans or lids. The nine pieces cover any cooking need I have. I love this set & am very thankful I was lucky enough to receive it as a gift!! It is a maker I trust & is definitely worth buying!!

I bought my set a year ago and couldn't be more pleased. Not only is it fabulous to use, but it is so easy to clean. A huge plus--the exterior doesn't seem to get black marks or stains like my old Calphalon set (which cost about the same). If you are looking for a set of cookware for the serious cook, this is it. Even heat distribution, beautiful to look at and easy to clean--you can't go wrong.

I got this cookware for a great price on ... and am very happy with it. It compares very favorably with all-clad (although I do prefer all-clad's handles). I also think this set provides a better mix of pots and pans than most. These pans cook evenly, heat up quickly, and clean up easily.

This item is absolutely wonderful and no kitchen should be without it. For delicate meringues, this appliance takes all the work out of an otherwise laborious task.

The wire whisk is a perfect example of how kitchen aid should make all their attachments. It is made of stainless steel and works perfectly for making the fluffiest meringue. It does not have that nasty white paint coating like other attahments, therefore it does not chip off into your food. This is a must have attachment to your kitchen aid!

Whether you want to make chocolate mousse, or whipped cream for cakes, cream puffs or to top a pie, the Wire Whip attachment for the KitchenAid Stand Mixer gets the highest marks. Egg whites are easily whipped into meringue or to be folded into waffles, souffles or cakes. Consistent results with ease. If you like to bake or make desserts, I highly recommend it.

The KitchenAid mixer is a solid and reliable work-horse. As an experienced and avid cook, I can attest to the versatility and craftmanship of this mixer. It is not only able to handle everything I have thrown at it, but the results have always exceeded my expectations. Some people may balk at the price tag but rest assured that, in the long run, you will save plenty of money because this is the last stand-up mixer you will ever need to buy. My only complaint about this mixer is the fact that my particular unit doesn't seem to engage very well when I select the first (and slowest) speed. Sometimes, I need to play with the speed knob to get it to engage the slowest speed. Despite this minor complaint, I am still rating this mixer as 5 stars because of its durability, ease-of-use and overall appearance. Once you have mixed and kneaded with a KitchenAid mixer you wil never want to use any other mixer!

When I bought this stand mixer, I nearly purchased a Kitchen Aid hand mixer instead, thinking of cost and kitchen real estate. I'm so glad I decided to get this stand mixer after all. I've only had it for a week, but I've already used it several times. Now I'm beginning to wonder what I did without it. Although this is a lower-end version of the Kitchen Aid stand mixer, it has all the important power and punch of the Epicurean model (one I'd highly recommend if you have the extra money). The only thing I really miss in this one is the size of the bowl, but it works for the jobs I need it to accomplish- I'm just spoiled from having used the Epicurean.
This machine mixes everything very well: smooth cake mixtures to chunky muffin and cookie mixes as well.
Perhaps one of the best selling points with this machine (aside from its aesthetics- it's heavy, but you won't want to hide this in a cabinet, so you don't need to worry about moving it from counter to cabinet and back again) are the wonderful array of attachments that can be added on. Buy the meat grinder attachment, and you can prepare your own groud beef and sausage. Add the pasta attachments to the meat grinder, and you have saved yourself the extra step of buying a bulky pasta maker. Or, if you'd like, you can keep this mixer all by itself.
Any way you look at it, this is a must for any cook, from the occasional cookie baker to send with the kids to school to the experienced chef.

Even if you don't like the color, the Kitchen Aid mixer is the "must have" brand name small appliance. Because of sturdy construction, and tremendous power, the Kitchen Aid mixer's reputation is indesputable! Baking will once again become a joy with this product that is endorsed by both Martha Stewart and Julia Child. It is made with solid metal components, and comes with a sturdy metal mixing bowl that includes a handle for easy control. One of the great things about the Kitchen Aid mixer is the attachments like the bread kneader and pasta hook, which are made of heavy steel and extremmely sturdy. Not to mention that Kitchen Aid guarantees their products reliablility. GET THIS PRODUCT!! Do not settle for a less expensive mixer that you will have to replace in a few years or even months..The Kitchen Aid will last forever! I still have the Kitchen Aid Mixer that my grandmother used in her kitchen to make cookies for me as a child.

People who do not like or who do not cook and bake probably cannot fathom why anyone would pay so much for a mixer. Well, the reason is simple. Reliability, power, adaptability and the fact one machine can do so much.

I ditched the bread machine someone gave me and stick with the KitchenAid with the dough hook, and I can make 2 loaves of bread in 20 minutes and then allow them to rise and then bake.

The grater attachments allow me to interchange blades so that I can make shredded carrots for carrot cake, then sliced onions for a pasta sauce. the KitchenAid whisk beaters make better egg whites and whipped items than any machine I have ever used or owned. The basic beater handles batters and cake mixes better than any other brand.

I know of no excellent cook that doesn't own a KitchenAid mixer.

I purchased the 41/2 quart Kitchen Aide just to make home made bread. I have never regreted the money spent. ....I still knead my dough after using the mixer, just to keep my hands in the dough.

This mixer is an animal. My family has owned one for almost 20 years and it has yet to break down. With the available attachments it can do almost anything that a food processor can do, except chop herbs or puree things. Do not be concerned with the high price of this item, you will have it for the rest of your life.
