Dexas OTS Grippboard with Oval Silicone Strainer, White/Red Review

Dexas OTS Grippboard with Oval Silicone Strainer, White/Red
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I store this under my kitchen sink and find that I use this all the time. It works great as a regular stainer, like for draining off the water from cooked pasta, but it is most useful for rinsing and/or cutting up fruit and vegetables. You can rinse them, cut/peel, and then collect all of the peelings, stems, etc. in the strainer. When finished peeling potatoes, cutting up strawberries, etc. you just pick up the strainer part and empty it into the garbage. Since the strainer is silicone it can be turned inside out if you need to, to get all of the stuff out of it easier, but usually I am able to just tap it a couple of times on the edge of the garbage can and everything comes out. I also love how it collapses for storage and also for putting it in the dishwasher (only takes up the room of a dinner plate.) I think the first reviewer made an error in the number of stars because when you read the review it sounds positive but only has 2 stars. This is a great item!!

Joyce Chen Bamboo Wood Oil, 8 Ounces Review

Joyce Chen Bamboo Wood Oil, 8 Ounces
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
So called wood and "bamboo" oils are simply food grade mineral oils. You should use a wood oil in your kitchen instead of vegetable oil because mineral oil does not break down or become rancid. Wood oil gives sheen and water and stain resistance to wood items such as butcher block, cutting boards, pizza peels and wooden salad bowls. You can use wood oil to darken and restore the appearance of faded wooden knife handles or dried out wood cutting boards. This is a must have for any kitchen with wood items. If you buy any sort of wood gift this is a thoughtfull add on which will help your gift to both maintain its beauty and last longer. This product appears to be offered at the best price on Amazon. Add it to your next order.
Snow River Wood Oil is an identical product but at the price of $6.99. The Snow River oil has also been available as a 4 for 3 promotion.
Wood and bamboo oils are much less exotic than one might think. I actually use mineral oil laxative on my wood kitchen items ($2 for 16 oz. at many drug stores) which is the same thing. Clearly the laxative bottle is less than aesthetically pleasing and is embarassing to leave around the kitchen. My wife keeps hiding the bottle in fact. But No it won't have a laxative effect if you use it on your cutting boards or knife handles.

I really liked the Nor Pro cheese board. It is multipurpose use although I mostly wanted it as a bread tray. I haven't used it for bread yet but am wondering what kinds of breads will fit there nicely. Definitely would recommend.

Progressive International Set of 4 Chopping Mats Review

Progressive International Set of 4 Chopping Mats
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Previous to purchasing this set of chopping mats, I had one fairly large chopping block and one quite small chopping block (both porous) which seemed to always be dirty. If they weren't dirty, I needed to cut all the vegetables before I cut any meat, and I'm not always that organized. These solve the problems, don't stain, and hang neatly on a nail inside my pantry. The flexibility is an added plus, as vegetables and meats can be swept into pots/pans of any size with ease.

These cutting mats curl when they are washed in the top rack of the dishwasher. This means the food won't stay on the mats so they can be used to cut food.

MIU Flexible Cutting Board, Set of 5 Review

MIU Flexible Cutting Board, Set of 5
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I thought these would be much more flexible than they are. We do use them regularly, but they are not nearly so pliable as just picking up and easily curling them to create a funnel for your food. They have a tendancy to snap back, and I wouldn't dare store them rubber-banded up as they would never go flat again. Indeed, our biggest complaint with these is that they just require too much effort to bend one way or another - be it rolled up for moving items to the pan or flat on the counter for chopping.
And don't even think about putting them in the dishwasher, even on the gentle cycle, regardless of what the description says! They get even more brittle in the dishwasher and lose what little flexibility they have.
At the end of the day, I wouldn't buy them again.

My buddy has a few chop keepers and he uses them from barbeque to chopping all kinds of fruits and veggies. He highly recommended it... So I decided to order some and try it out and I love it. There are several chopping boards on the market but none that have curved "up" edges, (at least none that I could find) which keep the juices and any liquid on the cutting board that is, until you are ready to clean it. Cleaning is easy, just toss in the dishwasher or rinse in the sink... Clean up is EASY!!!!

Progressive International Cutting Board with Non-Skid Santoprene Corners Review

Progressive International Cutting Board with Non-Skid Santoprene Corners
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The cutting board remains in place with the non-skid corners. I resharpened all my knives after having used an old glass-type cutting board which dulled them at every use. Knife ends the cut on a softer note. It will stain somewhat from certain vegetables (squash in my case) but that is the only slight drawback. Otherwise a 5 star. Gutter around inside very helpful to collect liquids. Shipped very quickly. Very pleased with the product.

The board fit very well over the counter. The problem I have with it is the surface is very slippery. When you starting slicing or dicing your food, the food starts slipping around. Also the handles do not have any stoppers in them, so they fall out. I had my old cutting board (another brand) hanging off the inside of the cabinet door below the sink. I am unable to do this with the Progressive because the handles come out.

Joseph Joseph Folding Colander Review

Average Reviews:

I have one of these and I love it. I got it when I was in my old apartment and had precious little kitchen space, and had to think very carefully about what I wanted filling up my cupboards so that I'd have enough room for necessities. Even though I have more space now, this is still my preferred colander. It's easy to clean, and works just fine. I just stand it up flat in a cupboard along with my baking sheets. While many of Joseph Joseph's products are over designed, over priced and/or unnecessary, this one is definitely worth it and is quite valuable if you have a small kitchen.

Not your Granmother's (or even your Mother's) colander, this folding colander went through over 100 prototypes during its development before Joseph Joseph settled on this innovative, patented design. Stylish and technically innovative, this space-saving colander in green uses 12 hinges that lock into place to transform into its shape and hold your draining food, and it folds completely flat for easy storage.

This gadget got a great review in the NY Times. I bought 6, 5 as stocking stuffers for the cooks in the family and 1 for myself. Unfortunately, it is clumsy to use and does not perform as well as hyped. Better to spend the money on a mandoline slicer.

Progressive International Set of 6 Chopping Mats Review

Progressive International Set of 6 Chopping Mats

These aren't the most durable, but they do last through quite a few uses. The colors are cheerful, and they work fine. Their thin shape makes them easy to store. You can even curl them in your hands to make a sort of funnel to easily dump the chopped food into a pot. Nice item, and a bargain. And you can clean them in the dishwasher.
Recommended, but with these limitations: (1) Because they are so thin, you don't want to put anything hot onto them -- they will warp. (2) Because they are so light, they can slide around the counter. These limitations eventually made me switch to much more expensive, thick, rubber-footed cutting boards -- but only after a long period using these with good results.
