Cocoa Latte (Brush w/ Clear Carafe) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great product! It mixes the milk (or water) with the coco mix so smoothly that it is like it was pre-mixed in the factory. It really does get it to the perfect temperature. Not too hot to burn your tongue or mouth, but not too cold to taste like chocolate milk. It is very fast, about three minutes. And it is very easy to clean. There is nothing bad about it at all! You can even make coffee with this machine. Simply pour in water, and instant coffee mix turn it on and whala, it is warm and mixed in minutes! Best product I have ever purchased! I would recomend anyone who wants to simplify the process of making ANY hot beverage. And if you have trouble stiring the milk/water and the coco/coffee powder togeather, well it is your lucky day becasue it comes out very smooth and blended. And for hot coco if you like it frothy, there is a special function that is easy to use to make it nice and frothy. And if plain style is your thing. Well leave the feature off and it is as non frothy as possible. It also saves time by mixing and heating at the same time in less than four minutes. If you like hot coco, coffee, or any other warm drink here is your product. And with the affordable price it is not that hard to get.

Progressive International Pineapple Corer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I slice quite a bit of pineapple and was looking for a helpful tool. This didn't work. The metal blade is too flimsy for the heavy duty job of slicing through pineapple. With quite a bit of pressure and elbow grease, it barely cut through. You have to cut the pineapple manually to almost a perfect "square" before even using the tool, quite a bit of wasted fruit. The core section usually yields core in your final slice and cuts away good fruit. Messy and time consuming. Extremely dissapointing. Not even worth committing precious drawer space for. I've now since seen it at my local grocery store and Target.

The Sharper Image 8144SI Citrus Juicer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used this juicer 3 times. Out of nowhere it stopped dead. I would return this immediately if you have it. I thought it just overheated. It didn't; it just died. Run away from this product as fast as you can. Thought I would be getting a great product since it came from The Sharper Image. I think The Sharper Image needs to repair its image with this piece of junk!

OXO Good Grips Citrus Squeezer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've used a large variety of tools over the years to juice citrus, and I was excited when I learned of this tool. Not only is it by Oxo, a leader in kitchen gadget innovations, but Cooks Illustrated also rated it as the top method for juicing limes.
I'm happy to report it does indeed juice limes very well! People without a lot of forearm/wrist strength may have to brace the bottom handle of the squeezer on something, and all the juice doesn't drain out of the squeezer until you remove the spent half-lime (it could use a few more drain holes), but it's effortless for me and I don't get juice all over my hands like when I use a reamer. For a lime squeezer, I give it 5 stars.
For a lemon squeezer, it leaves something to be desired. Working with an average supermarket lemon, it doesn't squeeze out as much juice as a reamer would (leaving some still in the lemon, wasted), and worse, squeezing hard causes lemon juice to squirt out the side for a sticky mess to clean up. Still, it is easy to use, if not very effective, so for a lemon squeezer, it gets 3 stars.
Since this is marketed as a citrus squeezer and not a lime squeezer, I averaged my two ratings to award 4 stars. If you're going to use this tool for limes and only the occasional lemon, the Oxo Citrus Squeezer is an excellent buy.

Norpro Orange Juicer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)5/26/2009:
I just bought this juicer. I was worried about a few things:
1. I saw a Good Eats episode on oranges the very next day after I'd purchased this. Alton Brown held up this exact juicer, said it was junk, threw it away, and recommend using a more sophisticated press.
2. I read the reviews here that said there was lots of orange and juice left behind, because the orange folds up around the edges trapping fruit and juice.
3. Some people said the lemon and lime presses (I have a really cool one with a swiveling plate that lets you choose smaller for limes or larger for lemons) worked great, but the orange one didn't. That made me even more worried since my lemon/lime juicer works great and that's why I went for the orange one.
4. Finally: some people said the broke in a few months.
Here's my review:
I juiced my 1st orange. It worked great.
A. I searched online to see just how much juice an orange should produce. From what I saw, you get 2-3 oz per medium sized orange. My medium sized orange produced exactly 3 oz. So that seems pretty darned good.
B. It didn't take a lot of force to make it work, however once the orange is almost done, some squirted back up again. I am confident that was user error, but we'll see after I go buy some more oranges and experiment. I will update my review with any new facts. Some juice was above the peel. If I just opened up the squeezer and turned it over, that poured into the glass instead of flying up into my eye.
C. About the fold up, fruit left behind comments. Yup. It folded up. Yup, there was fruit in the fold. I unfolded that lip and ate what was left. It was juicy and delicious! If you are gonna chill the oj for later, this gives you a tasty treat for you light effort. But since a normal orange gives 2-3 oz of juice, and I got 3oz of juice, I just don't see this as a problem. Great yield, plus a treat for the squeezer (me).
D. Mine has only juiced on tasty orange so far. If it breaks, I will update my review. Until then... my recommendation is buy! If you want a bigger press like Alton recommends go for it, but honestly, if I squeeze 4 oranges, I'll get a nice big 12oz glass of delicious oj, and some orange bit snacks to boot. :)
E. The handles are a lot shorter than I imagined. I picked this one cause it was eligible for amazon prime. Otherwise, I'd pick the one with the longest handles for extra leverage. But again, I had zero trouble with this one, so it may not be super vital to have the longer handles.

Cuisinart CCJ-100 Citrus Pro Juicer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You'd think it would be hard to mess up when designing an item that just juices halved citrus fruit, but they did. And how! There are three annoying features about this machine that interact to provide a supremely annoying user experience.
The first annoying feature about this juicer is that the pour spout juts out a mere 1/4 inch from the side of the machine. Since the machine is rounded and somewhat urn-shaped (fatter on top than on the bottom), you have very little space to get a glass or measuring cup near the body of the machine in order to catch the juice. Keep in mind that some measuring glasses can be rather thick, and you can easily see that this might be a bit of a problem.
Now for the other two problems. I should note that this machine has a decent amount of torque, and can indeed ream out a citrus fruit rather efficiently, leaving nothing but rind. The problem is the three little rubber feet on the bottom cannot stand up to the machine's torque. Push a fruit down on the top and the entire machine jerks to the side, whereupon the spout flinches away from its tiny area of proper juice-dispensing, and juice meets counter. You have to exert a considerable amount of force when pushing down the fruit just to get the thing to stay put. I had to use both hands to do this (one holding the lemon down, one pushing against the side of the machine, leaving none for the measuring cup). It's not an insignificant amount of force; you really have to brace your arms on the thing to keep it still.
Thus comes the third problem, which is the auto-reverse mechanism. About the second or third time you push down on the fruit and activate the machine, it goes the other way (clockwise instead of counterclockwise) in order to get more pulp and juice out of the fruit. However, I haven't figured out how to tell which direction it's going to go next (it's not a simple first time this way, next time that way), so when it decides to change, the machine jerks in the opposite direction of where you were expecting it to go. This operates in opposition to the force you are exerting on the side of the machine trying to keep it from moving. Again, hilarity ensues.
So, all in all, I am NOT impressed with this juicer. Unfortunately, it was the only one at the store. Perhaps another company will see the opportunity here and dare to make a juicer that does not have such an impressively compounded collection of design flaws.
