Farberware Toaster Oven: Oven, yes! Toaster, uh, not so much! by mql1208 Pros: Great for chicken nuggets and reheating pizza.
Cons: Doesn't do toast well. My husband kept dropping hints that we should get a toaster oven. I didn't think we needed one, but ordered something from Overstock.com which was received broken. I procrastinated and finally he decided to take matters in to his own hands and came ...

Toaster that looks and cooks great by angela9049 Pros: Does what it advertises. Toasts evenly and quite well for the price.
Cons: Some knobs should be placed elsewhere, so not so confusing. When my old toaster stopped working, I knew it was time to buy another one.Seems they do not last long in our house and I have purchased many of these appliances over the years.Finding a good 4 slice toaster was quite a challenge.Some were ...

I'm impressed-- and I FULLY didn't expect to be.... by ncsuprof Pros: quality of construction, ease of use/maintenance, efficient and fast heating/grilling
Cons: list price (get it on sale), maybe drip cups for some I'm not the kind of person who usually gets truly EXCITED about kitchen appliances, and the closest I suppose I've gotten in the past to that is a really cool KitchenAid burr grinder I bought a few years ago that's built like a tank and grinds coffee ...

Every home needs a slow cooker, and this is the one to get! by jurgrace Pros: Easy to wash, Timed settings, Can cook almost anything, Low maintenance
Cons: Doesn't actually cut and wash the vegetables for me before cooking them Many moons ago, when I was doing my bridal registry, I begged my husband to put a Crock Pot on the list. For several years afterwards, I nagged at him to buy one whenever we passed one in the store. He kept turning me down because he didn't see any value ...

Easy-to-Use, Convenient, Tasty: No Complaints! by megarunr  Pros: quiet, easy to use and clean, recipe booklet
Cons: none I purchased my first ice cream maker this summer: it is a Cuisinart, and I am delighted with it. I was raised to consider an electric ice cream maker an inferior product—my mom still uses (and swears by) her hand crank model. I wasn't sure if an ...

No Lightweight by ignu Pros: Effective and sturdy; very good value
Cons: Noisy The Cuisinart BFP-10 7-Speed Blender--also called the PowerBlend Duet--is a great addition to your kitchen. Perhaps its greatest asset is the fact that its two appliances in one--blender plus food processor. This versatility is a huge plus, and an ...

Rocky Rocks by ignu Pros: wide range of grinds; easy to use; essential for the best espresso
Cons: messy; a bit expensive I purchased the Rancilio Rocky Doserless Grinder to accompany my Rancilio Silvia espresso machine. The Rocky came highly recommended, and while it cost a bit more than I would have preferred, I have found it to be a helpful and valuable accompaniment to ...

Memories of Rome by ignu Pros: Good espresso with a good crema; easy to learn the basics
Cons: Getting it perfect takes time and practice; pricey grinder almost necessary In May 2008, I moved back to the United States after two years in Rome. While I've always loved coffee, anyone who's been to a coffee bar in Italy can tell you that the Italians elevate the quality and ritual of caffè to an entirely different ...

Bigger and better by Ames100 Pros: Big capacity, even cooking, good temperature control
Cons: Slow as a toaster, inconvenient digital controls, exterior gets very hot I bought this Oster model to replace my last toaster oven, primarily because it was on sale and it seemed to have reasonable capacity and features. My last toaster oven worked fine, but it was a bit small in capacity. It was also very hard to clean the ...

I absolutely love this iron! by katesgram2000 Pros: Easy to use-glides across clothes
Cons: The temperature guage is hard to understand. This is the best iron I have ever had. I use the steam and it does an excellent job. It doesn't scorch clothes when you switch from one fabric blend to another. In the past I have had problems with other irons sticking to the fabric sometimes when ...

Does it's job...but not at its best by travislclever Pros: Easy to use, light weight, dishwasher safe parts, easy clean exterior
Cons: Light weight mixing head, would not be ideal for heaving dough or batter. I have to admit, I didn't need another stand mixer. I do already own a Kitchenaid stand mixer, with all the bells and whistles. I already have the food processor, blender, chopper...all the appliances one kitchen needs - maybe more! But when I saw the ...

Cuisinart Beauty! -- Powerful and Space-Saving Design by dlstewart Pros: compact space-saving size, chute attachment feeds food into bowl, easy to use and clean
Cons: no storage area for the extra blades/discs For years I used an old Waring food processor that was bulky, heavy and a counter hog. The time came for a change. I'm pleased to say that I chose the Cuisinart Handy Prep 3-Cup Food Processor - Model # DFP-3. Let me tell you why ...

Great juicer for the price. by quiddity42 Pros: Large feed chute, fairly dry pulp.
Cons: Not really easy to clean, but that's an OK trade for the health benefits. After recently deciding to add a lot more raw food to my diet, I spent several hours surfing online looking for a perfect juicer that could juice, homogenize, and even handle wheatgrass. I think I found one or two, but they had flaws - one had a spout ...

Great for a crowd by teapartyliz Pros: Price (Costco and Sam's usually carry them). Serves a lot, versatile.
Cons: No temperature controlled shut off/warming phase. Hard to find replacement glass tube part. We've used this model (DeLonghi DCU62 60-Cup Coffee Maker) for three years now and it's great for serving a crowd. I bought it at Costco to use at a wedding. I've used it for several weddings, tea parties, brunches, etc. Besides coffee, we've ...

Cons: Messy. Base Leaks. Main gear does not make good connection. I I am one of those folks that loves all types of frozen drinks. Often when we travel I seek out the frozen base to those alcoholic drinks and enjoy the non-alcoholic versions.Knowing this, my husband gave it to me for my birthday a couple ...

The George Foreman Grill is a MUST for Pacific Northwest Residents by jurgrace Pros: Can grill in rain or shine, very easy to use
Cons: A pain to clean, Bun Warmer is useless When you live in a region known to have more rainy days than dry days in a given year, barbecuing is not something you can do very often. Boxing champ George Foreman has come to the rescue for us Pacific Northwesterners, with his line of "lean, mean, ...

Finally, the Best Coffee Maker I've Ever Used by brotherdave Pros: Easy to use, simple to clean, variety of coffee/tea/hot chocolate choices.
Cons: Won't serve a large group well. I had previously had a few different types of coffee makers in my office. A small traditional coffee machine by Cuisinart and a Phillips Pod Brewer among others. Although they made decent coffee, they were difficult to clean up, and there ...

Now Playing: Bessie the CRAP IRON! by domesticgod Pros: Stainless-steel soleplate, idiot-proof digital control, large water tank, and for an iron it’s quite sexy.
Cons: Cord breaks, spits water, odd smells, dies spectacularly. I really thought this iron was great, at first. Having previously owned a B&D QuickPress iron (utter crap), I had resolved to leave B&D on the shelf. Which is where it belongs, apart from in the landfill. Then I wandered into Superstore’s ...

Keeps coffee fresher longer by mrrcstl Pros: Compact, convenient and easy to use.
Cons: Uses paper filters. Read CAUTION and UPDATE in my review I just bought this a few weeks ago and I really like it. First, no coffee pot to keep clean and no heat element at the bottom to get dirty and smelly. It uses paper filters and I couldn't find one of those permanent filters that fit in ...

Now that's hot! ~Cuisinart Brew Central DCC-1200~ by pilarzmom Pros: Brews a great cup of hot coffee; sleek styling; Auto on programming

Loud and Produces Weak Coffee by maumeeprof Pros: Good looking machine
good digital readout Decent clean up Easy learning curve on control panel Cons: After all kinds of tweaking, I get nothing but weak, watery coffee. My 10 year old Cuisinart Grind and Brew Thermal died for the second time, and so I thought I wouldn't contact the company to replace it for a third time. I didn't feel like shelling out the hundred fifty bucks for another one, as my coffee habits ...
