    July 22nd, 2019

    Product display of bodum pavina double wall thermo glasses

    Do you desire your expresso’s to taste even better since they stay hotter and for longer periods of time? What about not burning your hands while sipping down your caffeinated rocket fuel for the day? Bodum has mouth-blown, lightweight, yet durable borosilicate expresso glasses that are living up to the hype. The glasses themselves have a simple yet elegant style that even your jaded, yet friendly coffee or expresso drinking company will greatly appreciated. Plus they’re a great conversation piece and yet just another product that keeps you trendy. The key to why the outside glass never gets heated is because these espresso glasses are double walled.

    This means the inside glass contains the heat, while the outside glass allows you to hold the glass. The glasses do have a hole in the outside bottom with a silicon plug to allow the pressure inside the expresso thermo glass to equalize with the outside atmosphere. It’s a nifty feature that enhances the thermo glass safety. If upon rising, your brain and body alert you to the need for caffeine, then these cost effective and durable Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Thermo Glasses will make you a happy early morning riser indeed.

    July 7th, 2019

    Product review of a silicone pot holders.

    Once you get your hands on a set of MIU Silicone Pot Holders, you’ll see what’s been missing from your kitchen! These pot holders are made from silicone, which means they’re super flexible and can be used as trivets, spoon rests or jar openers. Available in 7” sizes and a variety of colors, the silicone is heat resistant and can be tossed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. The holes at the top corner allow the pot holders to be hung on a fridge or side cabinet, or tucked away in a drawer for convenient use. The functionality of silicone pot holders has made them a popular buy in the marketplace, with several different options available.

    Similar in design and price are the HotSpot pot holders that have many of the same features. However, reviewers felt that the MIU silicone pot holders were a better buy, as they were far more flexible and slip-resistant than their alternatives. In fact, the MIU pot holders have no negative reviews, and the biggest complaint was that the color description featured online was wrong. Reports online are consistently positive. Customers love the flexibility and durability of the pot holders, as well as their ability to block out heat. Yet reviewers warn that you’ll still want to keep your fabric pot holders nearby, as they will come in handy when handling certain types of pots and pans. Still, the MIU silicone pot holders are convenient for other applications, so you’ll always find use for them. Overall, the pot holders are a great buy, as they’re inexpensive and comfortably handle high temperatures.

    The Highly Rated Progressive International Measuring Cups

    July 6th, 2019

    Product review of a progressive international measuring cups.

    No kitchen is complete without a collection of measuring tools, which is why the Progressive International Measuring Cups are a must-have accessory. This inexpensive set contains 19 pieces, including 10 measuring cups and 9 measuring spoons. The set features red, white and gray colors, so they’re easy to match, while looking modern and stylish in any kitchen. All of the pieces have standard and metric measurements and they can be tossed in the dishwasher. The large handles offer a comfortable, secure grip, eliminating unnecessary spills. Before you get too excited over measuring cups, you’re probably wondering how this set compares to others.

    Oxo Good Grips for example, is a top brand that offers plastic measuring cups. Customers preferred Progressive International however, as the measuring cups are cheaper in price and contain more cups and spoons. Plus, several customers had trouble with the numbers wearing off in the dishwasher with the Oxo brand, making measuring difficult. With the Progressive International Measuring Cups, online reviews are positive, with most people giving 5-stars. The only complaint was that the material is rather lightweight and appears to break easily. This is just an observation however, as the same customers report that the material only appears this way and has yet to break. Overall, the Progressive International cups and spoons are an excellent, inexpensive buy that can transform your cooking and baking needs. Customers love the ease and versatility of the set and couldn’t ask for a better group of measuring tools for the price!

    Small product picture of pepper grinder review.

    If you enjoy seasoning your foods, the OXO Good Grips Pepper Grinder will be a delight! This pepper grinder is attractive and can integrate well with both your kitchen and dining room decor. It features a clear acrylic body and stainless steel accents and comes filled with peppercorns. The soft, nonslip grip makes the grinder comfortable to use, and the non-corrosive ceramic won’t absorb flavors. The opening is positioned on the top side so you don’t have to worry about mess on the countertop or tables. To refill the grinder, simply turn it upside down and refill it. Not only does this pepper grinder crush quite well, but it has settings that allow it to go from coarse to fine.

    There are a variety of pepper grinders on the market, so finding one isn’t the challenge. However, finding a grinder that has even grinding and an attractive design can be difficult. Some consumers have purchased the Arta Dolce Pepper Grinder instead, as it’s smartly designed, appealing and has an adjustable grinding mechanism. However, some product owners found this pepper grinder to be frustrating to use, as the bottom fell out. So how did the OXO manual pepper grinder compare? The OXO Pepper Grinder had similar problems, as reviewers shared they couldn’t get the bottom to lock properly. Other reviewers felt that the grinding mechanism wasn’t consistent between coarse and fine. Despite a few minor problems, most online reviews were positive and say they’re happy to use all 5 settings of the grinder to season their foods without any mess or hassle! And at an affordable price, this is one kitchen gadget that’s easy to purchase!

    Small product picture of garlic peeler review.

    If you love adding garlic to your food but hate the smell on your hands, this garlic peeler from Zak Designs is a necessary gadget for your kitchen. With a unique design, this simple peeler peels whole garlic cloves quickly and efficiently without leaving a garlic odor on your hands or countertop. Simply place an unpeeled clove inside the tube, roll the peeler back and forth on a hard surface and allow the peel to come off itself. Then rinse the peeler off and toss it in the dishwasher for a quick clean. The garlic peeler is made from a flexible rubber material and is super easy to roll on a kitchen countertop or table.

    It is 5 inches long and can accommodate any size clove. Few of these silicone garlic peelers exist on the market, although Pampered Chef has their own version that has a similar design and soft, silicone material. Consumers prefer the Zak Designs peeler, as it comes in a variety of colors and is less expensive, while offering all the same qualities. Product owners are convinced that this is the best product to have in your kitchen, as it takes the work out of adding fresh garlic to dishes. Within 30 seconds, you get the garlic you need and you don’t have to worry about dicing with large knives. While reviews are positive, a few product owners said the Zak Designs E-Z-Rol Garlic Peeler ended up sitting in the drawer, being less useful than they had imagined. Indeed, this is a single-use product, but it will certainly be handy to those who enjoy fresh garlic on their food.
