The Pampered Chef Salad Chopper Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A friend recommended this and, what the heck, it wasn't that much money, so I bought it. And then I bought 4 more to give to other friends. This is an awesome tool. I find salads are generally healthy, but not that easy to eat. This is the solution...This may sound odd, but it makes every salad taste better.

Paderno World Cuisine 5 quart tin food mill with three cutting plates Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Basic product is good but this is an industrial size version and so quite unsuitable for standard home use.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Paderno World Cuisine 5 quart tin food mill with three cutting plates

The Paderno World Cuisine 5 quart tin food mill is used to strain or purée fruits and vegetables. By placing cooked fruits or vegetables in the mill and turning the crank, the semi-circular blade oversweeps, compresses and scrapes food. The bar that straddles the container applies constant pressure against the cutting plate and crushes the food, while retaining seeds, skin, and fibers. The food mill comes with three cutting plates allowing for a variety of textures. These interchangeable cutting plates have perorations of either 1/16", 3/32" or 5/32" (1.5 mm, 2.5 mm or 4 mm). This food mill\'s output is approximately 3 lbs. per minute and fits on any 7" or larger receptacle.

Oxo Good Grips Smooth Potato Masher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Finally I can make mashed potatoes without using my mixer. I am a quadriplegic/tetraplegic (C5-6 for thos who care) and I can use this tool. Traditional potato mashers just require more grip than I have in my hand. Plus the horizontal handle makes the pushing easier, as well.
My mother with mild arthritis likes this as well as her traditional masher.
As with most Oxo tools it is highly ergonomic: it fits the hand and does the job it's supposed to.

Put the pressure on your potatoes, not on your hands with this no-nonsense masher. The broad slotted plate pushes easily through tough root vegetables and the padded grip protects your hand.

Oxo Good Grips Lemon Zester Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a quadriplegic/tetraplegic (C5-6 for any of you who care). I have only about 1/3 use of my hands and about 1/2 use of my arms, but I can use this zester--not with great ease, but I can use it! I cannot use any other zester I have tried.
My mother has mild arthritis and she likes my Oxo tools better than her own (even the ones she's grown to love over the years).
The zesting blades are sharp and at the perfect angle. You get perfect zest with little effort. And you get NO pith (bitter white part).
As with almost all Oxo tools the design is excellent: it is highly ergonomic--it fits the hand and works the way it should.

Specially designed to get the tasty zest while leaving the bitter rind behind. The notch tool works to get spirals of peel and the soft, oversized handle works to take pressure off your hand.

Oxo Good Grips Potato Ricer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For starters, this gadget succeeds at doing the job for which it was designed better than just about any other kitchen tool I have tried except for a very sharp large kitchen knife.
And, it has all the features which have made OXO Good Grips products the best selling and best reviewed line of kitchen gear.
I held out buying one of these little darlings for a long time, as I already owned a food mill which is entirely capable of doing the same job with about the same level of success. And, this 18/10 stainless steel gem is not the cheapest gizmo in the gadget drawer.
I was swayed from this alternative by the fact that a food mill is a pain in the neck to retrieve from its high shelf, assemble, and then clean, although if I am cooking for a crowd, I may still use it, as it can do much more spud crushing in a shorter time than the Ricer.
I was also deterred by the possible lack of 'multi-tasking' ability until I saw TV chefs sqeeze water out of cooked spinach and lots of other leafy goodness.
My last basis for procastination is the fact that I thought the design with a selection of different hole plates (very much like the food mill) would be a better option to OXO's 'unibody' construction. But, I gave in here too, since I couldn't locate a good model with this feature.
Well, now I have this one and I used it and it produces truly primo mashed potatoes WITHOUT creating gummy spud paste.
If you make mashed potates more than once a month, buy this beauty!

(More customer reviews)I have carpal tunnel syndrome and this can opener is so easy to use. It is a simple, brilliant design.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Zyliss 20362 Lock-n-Lift Manual Can Opener, White

A sleek, user-friendly addition to any kitchen collection, this handheld manual can opener safely and efficiently opens aluminum and tin cans. The handy tool accommodates virtually any size, from small cans of tuna or fruit cocktail to larger cans of soup or baked beans, and it operates in three simple steps. First, clamp the opener on the top of a can, squeezing until it pierces through the lid. Then turn the ergonomic grip until its sharp, powerful stainless-steel blade completely separates the lid from the can. Finally, hold the can opener--with the lid still magnetically attached--over a garbage can or recycle bin and press the release button. The unit drops the lid into the receptacle for tidy, hands-free disposal--no more fishing lids out of cans or risking injury handling sharp edges. Additional highlights include rubberized non-slip handles, a hinged design that opens wide for easy cleanup (wipe clean with a damp cloth as needed), and a compact size that fits neatly into a drawer. Combining contemporary styling with professional performance, the manual can opener measures approximately 7 by 2 by 3 inches and carries a five-year limited warranty.

Oxo Good Grips Mandoline Slicer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this mandoline about 4 months after reading the recommendation of a Washington Post writer. It has worked well enough, but I sometimes wonder if the Boerner V-slicer would have been a better purchase. The blade is *not* that sharp, although it does a good enough job on potatoes, my main use for it. It is easy to clean and the blades are all right there when you need them, but I have one big gripe. The holder/pusher seems to "grasp" a lot of whatever you are cutting, leaving huge chunks of leftover potato, cucumber, carrot or whatever. My objective is not to throw away 15-20% of my vegetables.
Addition to review: returned said mandoline and replaced with Boerner V-slicer. No comparison! The V-slicer is sharper, easy to use, and doesn't waste large chunks of vegetable. It Sliced cukes and tomatoes with ease!

With this user-friendly mandoline slicer, making uniform, precise slices of apples, potatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and other produce is simple. To slice, simply slide the fruit or vegetable along the mandoline's stainless-steel "runway", which is textured to prevent food from sticking. The tool's stainless-steel slicing blade features a straight side for straight slices and a wavy side for crinkle cuts and waffle cuts. A soft grip area allows for safely removing and inserting this blade. The unit also provides a rotating cylinder with two sets of stainless-steel julienne blades. The row of blades set close together makes 1/8-inch square julienne strips. The row of blades set farther apart makes 3/8-inch square julienne strips. The cylinder is also used for adjusting the thickness of straight, crinkle, or waffle cuts, with thickness measurements indicated on its soft easy-turn knob.
Other useful features include a large food holder that protects fingers from the blades and a soft handle below the runway that ensures a safe, out-of-the-way grip. The kitchen tool's ergonomic design slants for ease of motion, is curved for easy food accumulation underneath, and provides wide, non-slip feet to keep the mandoline slicer stable and secure on the countertop. The blades remove effortlessly for cleaning and for convenient storage, all blades store on board, the legs fold compactly, and the food holder snaps underneath. The mandoline slicer measures approximately 15 by 5 by 5 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Oxo Good Grips Citrus Peeler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This citrus peeler makes peeling oranges, limes, lemons etc. much safer than using any knife. Notice I said safer and not quantifiably faster! There is still a bit of manual peeling required after using it, but I'm no longer worried about slicing my hands as they get slippery while cutting other fruit for my juicer. A must have tool for anyone who has taken up the healthy habit of juicing.

Oxo 1071478 Good Grips Food Mill Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We do a lot of home canning and preserving and purchased this mill to help with some of the chores associated with putting away pumpkin butter, grape butter, pumpkin puree and other foods. This was the only tool we found that helped get rid of the seeds and save the pulp of the grapes for our grape spread. We also own one of the large food strainers (Victorio or Roma type model) and this did a better job than that large, expensive strainer for that kind of work.
Things I really like:
--the "legs" of the strainer on the pot are coated with a rubberized surface that helps to keep them from slipping off the edge of the pot you are using it over. The handle seems to have the same coating and is pleasant to hold.
--also with the legs, they fold for storage, but I have found that folding them down around the sides of a 4-cup pyrex measuring cup also helps to hold it stable while using it.
--I like the white enamel (I think that's what it is) coating on the outside of the pot. Very attractive.
--Easy to clean. If I clean this immediately after using, I can practically just rinse it in hot water and let it dry and it looks great.
--handle assembly is cleverly designed and feels sturdy and secure when using it.
--comes with 3 disks for different jobs. We use the most coarse disk for pumpkin and apples and it works beautifully. (Note, we do take the seeds out of our pumpkins before cooking and straining). We used the medium disk with our grapes this year and it did a nice job, but a few seeds did sneak through. Next year we will try the fine disk.
My ONLY quibble with this piece of equipment is that it is not bigger. As I mentioned above, it fits nicely over a 4-cup pyrex measuring cup. I'd be thrilled if it was larger. The pot itself probably doesn't hold more than 4 cups. You *can* use it over a large pot, the legs will simply hold it there for you. It's the size of the pot itself I am talking about.

OXO Good Grips Salad Chopper and Bowl Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was very excited to receive this bowl and couldn't wait to put it to use. The bowl is very large size, you can't really tell from the product picture. It is a good size salad bowl. The chopper looks like a double pizza cutter. It works very well. The bowl is large enough to fix a good size salad and still have enough room to work with without spilling over.
You just fill the bowl with salad ingredients. I put in a whole gallon bag of lettuce, whole boiled eggs, slices of cheese and onions. Then proceeded to roll the chopper around the bowl. Depending on how long you chop, it will chop the ingredients pretty small. I thought that it was too much. I thought it wouldn't make an appetizing salad. Boy, was I wrong. It was delicious and easy to eat. I took the leftover salad this morning and filled a pita pocket with it. Perfect. I'm going to fix my salad with this everytime.
And just a hint from me, if you don't think you like your lettuce cut up that much, just put the other ingredients in the bowl first, chop away, and then add the lettuce last and chop a few more times.

Oxo Good Grips Mini Chopper Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought my Mom this smaller-sized chopper for nuts, herbs, onions & scallions.
The good news: It chops evenly and efficiently, with a comfy plunging action.
The bad news: you have to take the entire chopper apart in order to clean it properly. There are multiple interior pieces and lots of nooks and crannies where food particles get trapped. And if you miss anything, it will mold in place (yuck.) We regularly needed hot soapy water, a toothbrush and about 10 minutes of scrubbing to clean everything out.
OXO has a deservedly great reputation for kitchen gadgets; this one needs a redesign for simplicity and easier cleaning.

The OXO Good Grips Mini Chopper is smaller and more efficient for fine dicing, so you can make easy work of tasks like chopping garlic. With a simple press of the soft knob, the blades rotate, ensuring even chopping. An internal soft bumper absorbs shock to increase comfort and reduce sound. Chop ingredients in the enclosed cup with its soft, non-slip base, or remove the base and chop directly on a cutting board. A tab rotates within the cup to prevent food from accumulating on the side walls. The entire blade cartridge can be removed from the chopper by simply unscrewing it, so clean up is a breeze. Rails and alignment notches on the blade cartridge make it easy to place back into chopper after cleaning. Best, the chopper is dishwasher safe.

OXO Salad Spinner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've avoided making salads for a long time because of the preparation time. I had an older salad spinner, but it was the kind you had to turn, and cleaning it afterwards always seemed to take a long time. This spinner is a huge improvement over any I've used before.
You put the rinsed greens in the strainer, or rinse them after they're in, and then put the strainer in the bowl. One easy push and it spins on its own and it does not move around at all on the counter. I have found that it takes a couple spins to dry them the way I like, but while the greens are spinning, you can be chopping up other salad ingredients.
Even better, you can lock the handle in the "down" position and use this spinner to store the unused greens in the fridge; no separate "lettuce saver" is needed. I've had leaf lettuce in mine for several days, and it is still crisp and fresh. Since buying this remarkable spinner, I've had salad every night. And enjoyed every minute of it, preparation included!
If you love salads but hate the prep, get this. You will wonder how you ever got along without it.

Oxo Good Grips Natural Bristle Veggie Brush Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned this brush for two years. I was looking for a vegetable brush to mainly clean off carrots. Now the good part about this is the middle portion of the brush has a hole in it. The carrot fits right inside and brushes off the dirt. The bad part is that the bristles get twisted & bunched up. They sometimes break off but it is not often. If it were not for the bristles this would be a terrific brush.

Oxo Good Grips Y Peeler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love this peeler! I prefer this style over the swivel because it's easier to control and I'm less apt to cut myself. The blades are sharp enough to skin some winter squash, but dull enough so that my blade-phobic friend can peel potatoes.
The OXO rubber comfort grip is what distinguishes this peeler from others with similar designs. I can easily prepare enough russet and sweet potatoes, turnips, carrots, etc. for a large holiday dinner without getting a cramp and without the tool slipping from my wet hands.
I've had mine for about 5 years and it's still in great condition, but having an online source for this is very convenient because in my area, most stores carry only the swivel version.

Oxo Good Grips Pop-Up Steamer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As far as expandable steamers go, this one is the best, as far as I'm concerned. The 3 folding legs are rounded, so you can use this steamer in a non-stick coated pot, without worrying about scratching it. The center post handle screws off, if it gets in the way when steaming certain foods, like fish. I also like how you can put a fork through the top portion of the handle (as the instructions suggest), in order to lift it out of a pot, without burning any fingers in the process. Although it's a little bit more work cleaning it, as opposed to a silicone steamer (that doesn't expand), I usually use it for vegetables, and use a silicone steamer for fish (easier to clean). If you're really into steaming your foods, get this one and a silicone.

The highly functional pop-up steamer offers a variety of features that make it easy to cook a variety of foods. A simple press on the handle pops the steamer up for added length, making it easy and safe to insert and remove. Freshly steamed vegetables are a snap. Press the handle again to lock it down for compact storage. For extra reach, a fork can be inserted into the handle. Folding feet make it easy to store the steamer and easy to elevate it by 1-3/4 inches, leaving room enough underneath for water. Simply unscrew the handle when the entire basket is needed for steaming larger items like fish fillets. The steamer is made to fit pots 8 inches in diameter and up.

OXO Good Grips V-Blade Mandoline Slicer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We purchased this mandoline after it "won" the top spot on America's Test Kitchen's product reviews, over products that were much more expensive. America's Test Kitchen was considering safety features, as well as good slicing and convenience. It does have great safety features (which is a good thing, because those blades are SHARP!!!) And it works as well at slicing ripe tomatoes (which many mandolines mangle) as it does at slicing onions or potatoes. Great product, and yet another example of Oxo's great product design!

Four blades and a simple height adjuster make straight slices, crinkle cuts, French fries and julienne strips in a choice of thicknesses: 1.5mm, 3mm, 4.5mm and 6mm. The blades store on board and are easily removable for cleaning. A textured surface keeps food from sticking to the Mandoline and the food holder securely holds food and protects fingers. The handle and turning knob are soft for comfort and non-slip feet keep the Mandoline secure on the work surface. Fold the feet and lock the Mandoline for compact and safe storage. The blades need to be hand washed, while the Mandoline body and food holder are dishwasher safe.
