Reviews
"Also, I've always felt the probe on the CDN was a little too short, I'd always be almost burning my hand trying to take a temp on some stovetop chicken because you have to hold the bulb in place directly above. Anyway, these things were getting annoying so I was thinking of making the plunge into a Thermapen, putting it on my holiday list (because its so pricey), etc- however, when I was on amazon, I saw this item, the Thermawand, a new thermometer that is clearly putting itself directly up against the Thermapen. All the following is in comparison to my use of the CDN: - its more comfortable and intuitive to use, by extending the temp sensor wand it turns itself on, when you close it, it turns off. - much bigger, easy read display. - overall length is a little longer than the CDN, so you can hold it further away from the heat. The temp reading on the Thermowand was not as "jumpy" yet it was still reading in real time, as when I held it in the pot of water, I watched it creep up second by second. I know part of the "jumpyness" could be attributed to the fact that the CDN is technically a bit more sensitive than the Thermowand- however, I'm not talking about being jumpy within a degree or so."
"My first "grown-up" kitchen thermometer."
"Great thermometer."
"Bought one because my dad loved his."
"It reads about 1-2 degrees cool, but I can deal with that."
"Dead on accurate."
"I bought this meat thermometer in May 2015 based on its great reviews."
"While we've had this "tool" for several months, my wife now tells me she didn't want to say the read-out is 25-30 degrees lower than it actually is."

Reviews
"It was tough to handle, especially when it gets wet and the single needle didn't always fit the bill - either took too long or would clog. I finally ordered the Grill Beast and can highly recommend this fine injector. dual hole needle this past weekend to inject a full packer brisket."
"Seems pretty nice on first impression it's neatly packed in a box and even comes with a little temperature chart for a few different types of meats."
"Solidly made product, but they were wise enough to include spare O-rings (which are bound to deteriorate over time)."
"The needles are sharp and tapered so they easily puncture the meat."
"The 2 long needles included are just as extreme as is the lifetime warranty. I love to cook, and grill a lot of meals.I cook a lot of meals on a large BGE, and inject a lot of meats."
"This injector set is awesome!"
"To make it easier to inject, add a little bit of cooking oil to the o-rings so the parts slide easily. My first time using it was for Thanksgiving dinner and I'd like to think that it made a difference in terms of moisture and flavor."
"Large capacity syringe, and extra long, very sharp needles make east work of injecting your favorite solutions deep into tissues."

Best Meat Grinders

STX International Model STX-3000-TF Turboforce Electric Meat Grinder & Sausage Stuffer Kit - Size #12 - 3 Grinding Plates, 3 Blades, 3 Sausage Stuffing Tubes & Kubbe Attachment
The STX TURBOFORCE 3000 SERIES Meat Grinder is BUILT TO LAST and packs some VERY HEAVY DUTY OUTPUT POWER & TORQUE!!! This Meat Grinder is intended to Grind Meat - This Grinder Will NOT Grind Bones.
Reviews
"The first conclusion: the most important feature of a meat grinder is the motor power. This STX has a powerful 1,800 watts motor, more than enough to do all of the duties of a home kitchen (and maybe even of a small restaurant). The ground meat texture results very similar to that from a supermarket grinder. We didn't notice that, and what went to the dishwasher was damaged: the shining was gone and those parts became some rough to touch. So, I contacted the seller (The Mercantile Station) and asked them the price of the replacing parts, since I would buy them. What a pleasant surprise: they promptly sent me an email asking for my address, and they kindly offered to send the parts for free (despite, I must stress, the damage was caused by me). IMPORTANT NOTE: a few months after we bought our STX, the motor was improved to 2,000 watts, i.e, an increase of about 11%."
"Put a bit of already ground meat back into hopper to push through the last piece of steak so it doesn't get stuck - push down with pusher."
"Being a machinist I took a good sharpening stone and dressed the disks and blades, they broke in perfectly. Determining the right amount of tension on the disk retaining ring is not exact science."
"My mom seems to love this thing and grinds everything in it, mainly meats and vegetables."
"While this machine does produce a loud whirring sound while operating, it is a very efficient machine and gets the job done quickly!"
"This device is purple, lavender. The kitchen are had a solide fit for the screw and the housing."
"Easy assembly, good fitting parts except the meat trough is loose when in use and has no way in which to secure it."

Reviews
"For the price, a fantastic little food scale."
"I purchased this scale mainly to help me track my food intake as part of a basic diet and nutrition plan. [...]. PROS. * Small profile doesn't take up a lot of counter space. * Allows for measurements in a variety of units (grams, ounces, pounds, etc). * The "tare" button is the best feature because it lets me zero out the weight of a container like a small plate or bowl, and only weigh the food that I put inside that container or bowl. * Lightweight and easy to move around, store, or travel with."
"I used it to measure out everything from beef jerky and baked chips to chicken and turkey for on the grill."
"After receiving the Ozeri scale, I tested with my calibration weigh and the scale provided consistent results; $45 scale is out, and the $14 scale is in."
"As many reviewers have noted, the display is small and thoughtlessly placed relative to the scale platform, so yes, your view is obstructed when using bigger dishes. I honestly thought I would not be vexed by this, but I have to admit it does get rather annoying to have to keep bending down to get a view of the readout. It has helped me tremendously while recording my meals, I haven't had to replace the batteries since I purchased it several months ago, it does automatically go off but in an appropriate amount of time (I've never had it go off on me while I was cooking), it has several different units of measurement, and the tare option works great."
"Love this scale."
"It's hard to tell if those who slammed this product really have bad scales or just expect too much (or have a strong ceiling fan on overhead) but mine works great."
"It's a good scale but has two drawbacks: the weighing surface is too small and while it has too many options in the pound/ounce area, there's no setting for fluid ounce. Overall this is a pretty good scale so far."

Reviews
"I ordered this for my smokin' hot GF back in 2012... fast forward 3 years later -- this $20 wine opener is still with me and my smokin' hot GF is now my smokin' hot wife."
"I really liked this opener. You'll very likely get between 1-2 years out of this guy (hopefully) and you won't regret your purchase once you use it... until you need to open wine and don't have an opener.. The saving grace for the Ozeri is that the charge is a cable that attaches to the outside and it doesn't rely on a base to do this, so even if it does with a cork in it we can still charge the opener and eject the cork."
"But the backside of the opener is made of a black rubbery plastic material... which over time breaks down and becomes sticky."
"Instead of it getting harder and harder to open bottles the more you drink its just as easy every time."
"this is the best cordless opener but they only last a couple of years."
"This is the dumbest gift I ever received that I completely love."
"I have to press the button with a lot of pressure for it to begin reversing the cork out."
"So far it hasn't actually opened a bottle."

Tovolo Sphere Ice Molds - Set of 2
You can also use these large ice trays to make pretty ice spheres from colourful fruit juice, alcohol infusions, or add edible flowers, lemon slices or lime wedges to the water. PERFECT SPHERES OF ICE EVERY TIME: The sturdy plastic construction, leak proof design and water fill line make this ice tray fool proof and without messy water drips.
Reviews
"I was able to get significantly clearer spheres of ice when I boiled tap water before freezing (I poured it into the mold while it was still hot)."
"I recently started drinking The Macallan single malt Scotch. While looking at merchandise on their website, I found an ice sphere press and wanted one immediately. Use as directed and you will achieve a clear practically perfect 2.5" sphere of ice each time. Hardly any dilution of my espresso and by the time I finished there were still 2 resonably large ice spheres in my glass that I could have continued to use in a refill."
"PRO TIP FOR SOLID CLEAR(er) ICE: Fill it with pre-boiled/filtered or distilled water, and place them upside down in a very small cooler with 1/2 inch of water. A cooler like this would be fine: MIER Soft Cooler Bag Small Insulated Lunch Box Bag for Kids, Girls, Boys(Green). You'll have to place your finger over the hole so it doesn't leak and make sure they stay level in the freezer."
"When running "warm" water over the mold to take out the ice -- Read carefully! Run your warm water over the soft silicone lid first and most (the dark colored part) because it just takes a little longer to get the soft silicone to release than it does the hard plastic part of the mold. When running the "warm" water over the silicone lid -- Take care not to just let the water run into the hole for expansion in the top of the lid. After you run your "warm" water all over everything and you remove the silicone top -- the ice sphere will remain inside the silicone portion of the mold and if you do not squeeze it out into the hard plastic part of the mold.... more than likely you will find yourself chasing a rolling, melting, ice sphere across your counter or across your floor and underneath a piece of furniture...."
"Balls work great though."

Multi Vegetable Chopper Size: 10.5 x 4.3 x 4 inch. SUPERIOR VALUE - Package includes the Mueller stainless steel discs, 4-cup container, cleaning brush, Mueller recipe e-book.
Reviews
"The plastic is not cheap looking or feeling, the parts are easy to clean and the dicer works well."
"We ordered this chopper after seeing a similar product on TV."
"Chopping food is exhausting and painful, so I had stopped making a lot of my favorite foods, or had switched to pre-chopped versions. This little baby has been a dream for making salads and salsas and soups, and it's easy to clean with the little brush they include. You do need to push it down with a bit of pressure, but neither fine motor skills nor repetition are involved."
"It was, frankly, amazing that our previous chopper hadn’t done so earlier, given the design that placed significant force on the hinge area (two small tabs where the lid attached) of the thin, plastic base. When I saw the design of the Mueller Onion Chopper Pro, with the hinge fully integrated into the lid of your product, I was more than happy to spend a few more bucks to get it."
"This chopper glides through onions, peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, celery, apples, etc."
"It does chop veggies pretty well, but it's a pain to clean (aren't they all?)."
"Obviously there is no zero star rating. Received this item an hour back."

Best Cheese Tools

Microplane 40020 Classic Zester/Grater
Its design is based on that of a rasp, the small and efficient woodworking tool. The large handle allows for a firm grip, and the completely flat grating surface makes it easy to move the cheese across the blades. Carrots, onions, and medium to firm cheeses all worked beautifully with this grater. It's also an excellent choice for larger strips of citrus zest or ginger. Enter your model number to make sure this fits.
Reviews
"This product is a lifesaver if you need to get masses of the smallest possible pieces of garlic or ginger or lemon zest or relatively hard things of that nature."
"I bought this mainly for zesting lemons and oranges, but it's so easy to use that I started grating all kinds of things!"
"Works great."
"Does a great job zesting lemons and frozen ginger."
"For instance, our tests show that 1 ounce of Parmesan grated on the fine holes of a box grater yields 1/2 cup of grated cheese, whereas the same 1 ounce grated on a rasp yields 3/4 cup of grated cheese."
"zester is great!"
"I bought this micoplane zester after tiring of using my box type grater to zest lemons, and having most of the zest remain in the grater. Then we cut the zested lemon, and either put it in the chicken, or at the base of the chicken, which enhances the flavors."
"I've always used graters in the past to zest citrus but this too is so much better for the task."

Reviews
"I own one of the small twist-style versions and the Paderno 4-blade model (technically, I also have a fourth, the Kitchen-Aid Spiralizer mixer attachment, but that's a completely different animal...). While I'll probably always use the twist-style model for really small spiralizing jobs, like doing a single vegetable for garnish, the Mueller is replacing the Paderno because, for my purposes, it's much better than the Paderno in a number of ways: 1) There's much less waste, because it doesn't create a wasted core (yeah, I know you can use it for something else, but when I'm spiralizing, I want spirals...). As to the negative reviews based on the "danger factor", I'd say anyone who finds the Mueller to be that dangerous should stay away from knives, food processors, mandolins, vegetable peelers, in short most of the utensils in the kitchen, because this one's no different: Follow the directions and you'll be fine. That took care of both of my hands, so unless you've got a third, I don't see how you can cut yourself when you're using it for spiralizing. A quick update after having used the Mueller Spiralizer quite frequently for a couple months: it continues to be the best of the bunch, by a wide margin."
"Sometimes you see a product you are so excited about, you buy it, cannot wait for it to arrive, and then once you open the box it seems to sit there for a few days, maybe a week or two, before you use it for the first time. Then you decide to slice up some more and have these prefect round discs of some apples or zucchini. It not only spiralizes to perfection, you do not have to worry about getting your counter dirty because of the convenient cup that collects what you cut up. You can store it back into the box it came in once you are done with it, but keep it close by your kitchen counter because you will constantly be using it to make healthier and superior looking side dishes or entire meals."
"Improvements that they've made over the typical designs include having a more normal "press down" instead of "press sideways" operation."
"This system is really great- everything is resin but sturdy."
"I spiralized zucchini. Can I just tell you that I did ONE medium sized zucchini and it was enough to feed four people ( just sautee it for like 5 minutes in a little olive oil and tons of garlic and a sprinkle of salt OMG). Anyway, it was super easy to set up and super easy to use."

Reviews
"Soft vegetables, zucchini, etc., work fine in smaller sizes, but small hard vegetables, carrots, etc., maybe 1.25" diameter, don't work very well. For zucchini, yellow summer squash, etc., small or large both work. Vegetables used as spaghetti substitute don't taste exactly like pasta; instead the flavor comes from the sauce and the vegetable, but somehow a zucchini made into spaghetti strands doesn't taste like zucchini, it tastes much better."
"Dimensions of the product can be seen in the photos. Included in this set: *Spiralizer Body. *Spaghetti blade. *Fettuccine blade. *Wide thin spiral slice blade. Pros: *Easy to use. *Easy to clean. *Designed to keep things sanitary. Cons: *None. Additional Considerations: Some quality kitchen shears are nice when using this product. Overall: 5/5 stars (>=.5 rounds up, 5 stars. If you have any further questions regarding the product in my review please leave a comment below and I will get back to you as soon as possible."
"I'm one of those weirdos that does an unnecessary amount of research, reads review after review, watches videos, and looks through the fine print on where a product is made and what the warranty covers - just to make sure I'm getting the best product for the best price."
"I bought the spiralizer because I wanted to try new healthier recipes and kept running into ones that required something to be "spiralized". After I got it they emailed me another PDF with recipes and gave me a bunch of tips for using the spiralizer - what not to do, what to do, etc."

Best Can Openers

Hamilton Beach 76606ZA Smooth Touch Can Opener, Black and Chrome
Style Name: Without scissors |. Product Packaging: Frustration-Free Packaging. This can opener will easily open all standard-size cans and cans with pop-top lids.
Reviews
"I'd been using the same small dependable hand-held electric can opener for the past 25+ years until it finally gave up the ghost. After getting hand cramps from my old manual opener, though, I finally opted for this Hamilton Beach model. I'd never much cared for the side-cut openers before because liquids inside the can seemed to spill more easily with the lower edge, so this higher-cutting model is much better IMO. The top push-down lever depresses easily and the magnet on the opener holds the can securely in place while it's cutting. I found that this is important because if you allow it to continue making rotations, it cuts long narrow slivers of the can which are noticeable when you remove the top (looks like a tiny strand of steel wool)."
"This Hamilton Beach Can Opener had caught my eye from all the great 5 Star reviews it showed, and from Reviews as far back as year 2009 which shows Hamilton Beach knows they have a high quality well built very popular can opener. The can opener is what you would design in your mind as having every feature a High Quality Can Opener would have, well designed and solidly built."
"I'm 72 years young and this is the BEST can opener i've ever owned or operated.!!"
"Came across the Hamilton Beach can opener and was surprised by all the great reviews and for $20 didn't feel like I was loosing much."
"Reviewers who said it has a short cord probably did not pull it all the way out."
"I took a photograph rare earth magnet I place just a fraction of inches from I can been opened see the metal shavings I would normally have to rinse off with water."
"I have never seen or had an appliance sold with a cord that is basically 'useless' unless you have a connection with nothing in the way. Buy an extension cord, or maybe Ham Beach will correct this incredible design blunder."

"This very reasonably priced thermometer has all the bells and whistles and works great every time."
"I use this one for smoking in my Masterbuilt or other similar controlled temp smoker and I use the dual probe that ThermoPro makes when I use my BGE and it not only tells me the temp of the meat but the temp of the grill."
"Now find a set first temp a bit lower... so when it goes off I can do veggies and such and just reset for final temp for meat or casserole... love this gadget..."
"It does it's job...have used it in cooking turkeys, steaks, chicken and pork ...and all have come out cooked perfectly!"
"I've not had much luck in electronic meat thermometers lasting a long time, so we'll see how this one does..."
"After going through 3 other wireless thermometers that eventually broke, I spent a bit more money on this one and it's awesome."
"Saves time and your legs!"

Best Oil Sprayers & Dispensers

Evo Oil Sprayer Bottle, Non-Aerosol for Olive Oil and Cooking Oils, 8-ounce Capacity, Set of 2
Evo Non-Aerosol Oil Sprayer Bottle Set, the world’s first non-aerosol trigger sprayer with a unique fan-shaped spray, keeps 2 oils always at the ready and dispenses easily without harmful additives, propellants or chemicals. They work with many types of healthy cooking oil, like EVOO (extra virgin olive oil), canola oil, avocado oil, grapeseed oil, even infused oils with herbs and spices. Every pull of the trigger delivers a precise 1.35-milliliters in a unique fan pattern that covers more cooking surface with less oil. Easier to use than a traditional oil vaporizer or oil mister. Evo Non-Aerosol Oil Sprayer dispenses any cooking oil and vinegar in unique fan pattern without any harmful propellants or chemicals for healthy foods.
Reviews
"These sounded like a good idea when I asked the Birthday Chicken to lay these on me: Refillable food safe spray bottles that didn't have to be pumped in order to spray. The sprayer does not spray a mist, only a course wide fan shaped spray. To get that fan shaped spray you need a fairly strong pull on the trigger giving you a forceful spray. While the course wide spray is fine for spraying a grill or a large frying pan, it is really easy to over spray a smaller frying pan. Because you have to pull so hard on the trigger to get the fan spray, the force of the spray will cause more of the oil to splash out of the pan. The wide fan shaped spray is useful for some things but a fine spray option would really be welcomed. I'll continue to use the one good bottle I have, but am still searching for spray bottle nirvana."
"I bought the large 18 ounce Delta Evo Spray Bottle. I loved it so much that I wanted these small 8 ounce spray bottles, mainly for the "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray for a large bowl of popcorn. I also use Evo spray bottle for spraying the 'butter' on rice and vegetables on my dinner plate without the spray landing on other things nearby. The nozzles on these 8 ounce spray bottles are the exact same as the 18 ounce spray bottle. So, if you didn't like the spray nozzles on the large bottle you won't like it on these either. It is a wide spray, it is not like an aerosol spray that mists, this sprays (like window cleaner) a large measured amount at one time, 1.35 milliliters per trigger spray."
"Having said that, I think the spray's coarseness reflects the design of the self-syphoning pump in the Evo bottles, and therein lies the fundamental fact that the Evo sprayers work, while others don't work."
"The first photo is a frying pan sprayed with a canola oil spray can."
