Norpro Honey Syrup Dispenser Review

Norpro Honey Syrup Dispenser
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received a honey dispenser as a wedding gift a few years ago, when Williams Sonoma carried them (slightly different model). My mom, who taught me the fine art of making a proper cup of tea, fell in love with the item so I decided to find one for her. WS no longer carries them but I found this was a good substitute. The trick to getting it to dispense well is to put a little bit of hot water in the stand about three minutes before you use it.

Brita 35530 Ultramax Dispenser Review

Brita 35530 Ultramax Dispenser
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had been using the smarller Britta pitcher(holds 5 glasses). That works wonderfully by the way,just too small for larger families or serious water drinkers. The only complaint with that was the size caused me to have to fill it constanly as I drink a lot of water. So I decided to upgrade. First I purchased the faucet mount filter and was disappointed. The thing moves slower than molassas! I returned that and was going to get a standard pitcher filter setup but decided to go with this one because it was only four dollars more than a pitcher that held ten glasses of water. This provides 18 glasses of the best tasting water ever. I live in an area where our water is reputed to be among the best in the country(at least that what the local officials say) and this only improves on it!! Now I fill this up,put it on a shelf in the fridge and voila,I have great tasting ice cold water at my fingertips. I think this is much more cost effective than buying bottled water. The best part of it all? My kids have now become water drinkers!! It might be because of the easy to use tap,which by the way makes this much more convienant to use as opposed to the pitcher. Although they swear that they drink more water now because it "just tastes better".
I am, so far, very pleased with this sytem. I think it is a wise investment.
Great tasting water without the chlorine smell or taste at a great price! It doesn't get much better than that as far as I can see!!!!!!!

Think of it as water filtration for dummies. You don't even need to keep an eye on the calendar, the electronic sensor lets you know with a flashing arrow when it's time to change filters. Not to mention this system sure beats the heck out of paying for and lugging home gallon after gallon of water.

Zojirushi Premier Airpot Review

Zojirushi Premier Airpot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have to give a Zojirushi airpot five stars. Zojirushi is known for their airpots. They are the best. Period. My mom had one, not the premier model, just the regular one, for almost fifteen years. I just bought this one with the special pump. I have to say that I expected it to look cheaper than the one my mom had, but I was wrong. I've noticed that after over fifteen years, they still make their products the way they used to. What surprised me the most is that they are still made in Japan. Zojirushi airpots are pricey but they are worth every penny you spend. They last longer than other airpots and keep the water hot for more hours.
Update: I forgot to say that it's better to fill it all the way up or at least half of it because if you pour inside only a cup of water or coffee, it will be warm the next day, not hot.

Holding up to 74 ounces, this thermal beverage dispenser keeps contents hot or cold for hours--great for birthday parties or family reunions or places without electricity like a park or rustic cabin. The unit's vacuum insulation and high-quality glass liner provide exceptional temperature retention, while its lever-style pump uses air to pump out the contents, making it easy for guests to serve themselves. Even more, the dispenser features a patented Brew-Thru stem stopper and a removable lid (which opens a full 125 degrees F) that allow for brewing directly into the unit from almost any commercial coffee brewer. Other highlights include a safety lever lock to prevent accidental spills, a swivel base, a fold-down carrying handle, and an easy-to-clean design. Attractively housed in brushed stainless steel, the ETL-approved beverage dispenser weighs just over 3 pounds and measures 6-5/8 by 6-5/8 by 16-3/4 inches.

This devise leaks and works marginally for spraying oil but it does raise frustration levels. I followed directions very carefully and after finding puddles of oil on the counter from this contraption, I relagated it to the garage.

Make ice and chill, serve, and store foods all with one super efficient tool. The Fusionbrand IceOrb is the first vertical ice tray of its kind. The IceOrb will make 21 cubes of ice on its vertical wall and will store up to 51 cubes. Simply remove the inner bucket and fill the orb with water to the indicated fill line. Place bucket back in the orb (displacing the water), place lid on and pop into the freezer. Once frozen, again pull out the bucket, pop the ice cubes out of the wall and either use, or store inside the bucket. More ice cubes can be made at this time. The inside of the orb is airtight and odor free. The orb doubles as a wine bucket or as a serving vessel. Use it as a cooler to keep cold foods fresh while serving. It's great for ice cream or dips. The lid can be placed under the orb to catch condensation. Easy to clean, the orb is top-rack dishwasher safe.

Zeroll Original Ice Cream Scoop Review

Zeroll Original Ice Cream Scoop
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had one of these for almost a decade and love the way it handles ice cream. Unfortunately, I also own the "non-stick" version and as the finish ages, the dark color from the scoop is transferred to the ice cream: a most undesirable effect. Seriously, just buy the regular, not-nonstick version.
The real secret is the conductivity of the anti-freeze solution and the aluminum that encases it. The solution readily transfers heat from your hand to the handle, to the liquid, which warms the scoop ever so slightly after you scoop. By pre-warming the handle & liquid in lukewarm (NOT HOT) water for 90 seconds, you'll allow the scoop to release the scooped ice cream faster. Also, that 90 seconds actually lets the ice cream temper before you scoop. The end result: no-longer rock hard ice cream that you can readily scoop and virtually drop in a dish or on a cone. Note: if the surface of the scooped ice cream retains a liquid appearance for more than a few moments or (Eek!) if liquified cream runs off of the ice cream, you've over-heated the handle. Don't worry, just a bit of practice...
