6 oz. Stainless Steel Hip Flask (Pkg. of 5) Review

6 oz. Stainless Steel Hip Flask (Pkg. of 5)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My new 6oz stainless steel flask (set of 5) arrived last week. The only true way to test flasks is... yes... you guessed it... fill these bad boys up and pound down some liquor like it owes you money.
Got my friends together (set of 4) and filled each flask with 100 proof rum. Yeah, play time is over, this test will not be for the faint of heart. Amateurs need not apply. Allow me to introduce the 5 players in this test. I will use descriptive nicknames to avoid damaging fragile friendships.
#1 - The cry baby - He drinks and feels sorry for himself. Almost to the point where you want to cry with him... almost.
#2 - The fighter - He drinks and wants to fight everyone. With no takers, he generally ends up punching a wall at the end of the night to prove his manhood.
#3 - The sleeper - Generally this individual needs to be carried to the car at the end of the night. Mumbles a lot.
#4 - The daredevil - The more liquor in him the more he thinks that jumping off the roof with a table cloth parachute is a really good idea. ANYTHING is possible with the proper Liquor / enthusiasm ratio.
#5 - Me - Normal - I console the cryer, Calm down the fighter, control the daredevil, and carry the sleeper to the car.
We assembled at my house. Thus ensuring there would be no drinking and driving. The test began very positive. 40 minutes in we had to refill the flasks. We looked and felt soooo cool using our flasks. Sophisticated. The sophistication ended at approx. 1 hr. and 15 minutes.
Cry baby started with the whole woe is me and look at my pathetic life rhetoric. The tears began to flow. The fighter punched him in the face in order to, in his own words, give him something to cry about. Daredevil decided that jumping off my back wall onto the trampoline would get some, quote, "big air". He bounced into the side of the house like a slab of beef. I laughed and was promptly beaned in the face from his half full flask. He throws harder than I thought.
I released a few obsenities at the top of my lungs and then swung into action. I did not want to be left out of the "Hey look at me" escapades. I kicked a dozing sleeper out of his chair and then pointed at the daredevil. Sleeper went after him immediately.
Crier and fighter wrestling on the ground. Sleeper and daredevil yelling at each other. Me, standing there proudly, with a very large flask induced bruise on the side of my face.... now swollen.
Apparently the neighbors were concerned and called the police. All fun ended when they arrived at 1 hr 20 minutes into flask test. Unfortunately, fighter answered the door. He got one drunk wild swing in before the beating began. I found myself cheering him on. It did not help him in his efforts to defeat multiple police officers. At least he got his own police car, the rest of us were doubled up. I rode with crier. A good thing. The other car went to the hospital first. The police officers had bet daredevil he couldn't fit his whole fist into his mouth. he knocked out two teeth forcing that sucker in.
All the flasks were retrieved with our personal effects the next day.... after arraingment.
They still looked new!!! Awesome flasks. Took a beating and still looked new.
We were all pleased with the results and are planning to test these wonderful flasks again, soon. Hopefully at someone's house that does not have a trampoline.

Sanyo U-K170S 1-3/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Electric Kettle Review

Sanyo U-K170S 1-3/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Electric Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We loved the look of this kettle and liked the easy-to-read water gauge. Its power is 1500 Watts, which is higher than many comparable kettles.This is a big advantage, as it means that it comes to the boil more quickly. (It's well worth checking the power of kettles before buying them. Some are painfully slow!)
For us, though, there was, unfortunately, one problem. We use our kettle for all sorts of purposes, but mainly for making traditional British tea and we found that after a day or so, the tea tasted odd. My adult son was the first to point it out. I didn't want to believe it, as I loved the kettle. But in the end I was unable to deny it any longer. The tea definitely didn't taste right, even to me.
I did some searching online and found other comments about a "metallic" taste and suggestions for eliminating it. e.g. Boil up lemon juice in the water, and so on. I did try that and it did diminish the scale that had already started to build up. But for us, it still didn't solve the taste problem. I don't know whether the scale was what caused it. If so, the kettle might work well for those who live in soft water areas, or who use water filters. It might also be fine for you if you aren't a tea drinker, or fussy about the taste of your tea.
I hate to write anything negative in a review, but feel I owe it to fellow tea-drinkers to point out this problem! We have kept the kettle, because it's still useful and fast at boiling water for other purposes. But we no longer use it for tea-making. Sorry.

With 1500 watts of power and a concealed heating element, this electric kettle quickly boils up to 7 cups of water, producing hot water for tea, hot chocolate, instant soup, and more--in half the time of a microwave oven. The kettle lifts off its 360-degree swivel power base for cordless pouring, can be set on the power base in any direction, and provides an easy on/off switch under the ergonomically designed handle. For safety, it features automatic shut-off with boil-dry protection to prevent it from operating without water, and to ensure the water doesn't boil away during operation, the unit shuts off automatically once the water reaches a full boil. Side and top water-gauge windows, along with a water-level indicator in ounces and liters, make it possible to see at a glance the amount of water remaining in the kettle. Other highlights include a push-button lid for convenient filling at the sink, a blue LED "on" interior light, cord storage underneath, and a removable and washable mesh filter that extends the life of the kettle and ensures better-tasting beverages. A bilingual instruction manual comes included. Housed in beautiful stainless steel, the electric kettle measures 9-1/5 by 6-4/5 by 10-1/5 inches.

Stainless Steel Thermos & Mug Review

Stainless Steel Thermos and Mug
Average Reviews:

This worked very well - the first time I used it.
I hand washed it afterwards, then used it today, about two weeks after I bought it. I poured hot coffee into it, and the outside of the thermos has become almost too hot to touch. It is obvious that the vacuum seal has broken and lost all its insulating properties.
I thought the Thermos brand meant quality, but I guess this is what I get for buying a cheapened product from WalMart. I don't recommend this product.

This is a large capacity coffee / tea carafe with a PHENOMENAL ability to hold temperature; even after 8-10 hours, beverages are still warm. This is from Zojirushi's restaurant / hotel line and not really intended for home use; it's expensive and has a funny lid intended to fit directly under a drip coffeemaker. But highly recommended if you want to make coffee once and keep it hot all day.

Samsung : RSG257AARS 24 cu. ft. Counter Depth Side by Side Refrigerator - Real Stainless Review

Samsung : RSG257AARS 24 cu. ft. Counter Depth Side by Side Refrigerator - Real Stainless
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This model is newer inside than the larger, non-counter depth model RS275ACRS. I returned that model to get this one and am very glad I did.
1. This model has interior LED lights when you open the refrigerator instead of the hotter old bulbs like the 275.
2. I am somewhat compulsive about temperature control. I have two precision thermometers, one in the fridge and one in the freezer compartment. On the RS275ACRS, the temperatures were nowhere near what the external display was reporting them as. On this model, however, the refrigerator is usually within 0.2 deg F of the reported temperature (at coldest setting of 34F, thermometer reports 34.1 whereas the 275 would be all over the place, never lower than 37 or so). In the freezer, this model is rock solid at -10 F when the external display is -14 F. I consider this excellent, as most freezers can't get this low. The 275 was lucky to get to -7 F with the display at -14 F. And yes, I allowed plenty of calibration time and took multiple readings over weeks. So, in my testing anyway, they have definitely upgraded the innards since the 275.
3. This model has the icemaker on the freezer door, not hogging the upper shelves of the freezer, which I love.
4. It is, obviously, slightly shallower than the RS275ACRS, but the markedly improved performance is well worth it to me.
5. Fridge very quiet.
6. External display slightly improved vs RS275ACRS.

Great product, well built and designed, perfect size. The reason it gets a 4 star and not a 5 is that Stanley makes you think the product is made in the USA.

Stamped right on the box and product is made is China, designed in USA.

Average Reviews:

I bought two of these for our church, expecting that the commercial-grade would hold up better than the home-grade coffee urn would. We only used them on Sunday mornings and occasionally once during the week. Two months after the one year warranty had expired, they both quit working within a month of each other. (That was how long the home-grade ones we bought for $20 had lasted.) Since the warranty had expired, I took them to a small appliance repair shop only to be told they could not be fixed. I was extremely disappointed in this product!

Housed in beautiful stainless steel, this commercial coffee urn can brew up to 60 cups of coffee at cup-a-minute speed, making it exceptionally useful for parties, business meetings, and other large gatherings. The unit's "ready" light shows when the brew cycle has completed, while its keep-warm heater maintains an optimal serving temperature. To make life easy, a cup trip handle allows guests to serve themselves with convenient one-hand dispensing. Other thoughtful details include a saucer indent, a water-level indicator, an illuminated on/off light, and a smooth stainless-steel interior that resists build-up for maintenance-free brewing, as well as a three-wire grounded cord and plug and stay-cool side handles for safe transport. When the party's over, dishwasher-safe parts make cleanup a snap. The classic-looking urn measures 12-2/3 by 12-2/3 by 18-4/9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using water dispensers for a while and some how they all work fine. The problem with them is that they are made out of plastic. No more than a year and you have to start thinking how to replace the dispenser. Having a water dispenser made out of stainless steel secures me that it will run on the middle and long term. I am pretty sure I made a good decision with this dispenser ... works great!

Click Here to see more reviews about: Dinuba Stainless Steel Water Dispenser 25 Liter

Purified water should be stored in either a glass or stainless steel containers to maintain purity. Until now there has not been a good stainless steel alternative. Dinuba Stainless Steel Water Dispensers are imported from Italy and are made of the highest quality 18/10 stainless steel. Originally used to dispense olive oil this beautifully designed stainless steel container is easy to clean with dish soap. The top, reminiscent of antique milk cans, has a large screw top opening and two handles. The dispenser top can remain closed for dispensing because of the built in screw air vent. The vent allows air in without contamination. The spigot/faucet is a push button type and is a stainless steel fitting, water does not come into contact with any plastic. Dinuba's classically designed Stainless Steel Water Dispensers offer convenient, lightweight water transport, as well as stylish countertop or refrigerator dispensing. Ideal for the home environment and more rough and tumble environments where glass is not a good option such as RV, boating and camping........... 25 liters is 6.6 gallons. Overall dimensions are 14 x 14 x 13 inches tall. Stand not included.

KitchenAid : KFIS25XVMS Refrigerator Review

KitchenAid : KFIS25XVMS Refrigerator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This refrigerator replaced one of those double door refrigerators that had 5 freezer shelves which were too narrow to accomodate frozen pizzas or a 22 lb turkey. I hated the old fridge. It looked nice, but was pretty useless and impractical.
My new Kitchenaid refrigerator/freezer is great. Food items are clearly visible and there is plenty of storage space on both doors that allow for varied heigths depending on your needs. Electronic controls allows for consistent temp. Vegetable and fruit storage is accomodated with large bins and coldcuts and cheeses have their own storage drawers. There is an alarm that alerts you if the doors are not properly closed and a constant readout indicating temperature. A water dispenser is mounted on an exterior door which I don't use much.
The lower mounted freezer has two deep baskets that hold pretty much everything with an adjustable slide for more efficient storage.
The stainless steel exterior glistens and offers a lot of flexibility re: home decor. The exterior does require a weekly cleaning with stainless cleaner.
I like the quality, performance, and appearance and bought as second similar unit without the water dispenser.

Frigidaire Professional Series : FPHC2399KF 36 22.6 cu. ft. Counter-Depth SidebySide Refrigerator Review

Frigidaire Professional Series : FPHC2399KF 36 22.6 cu. ft. Counter-Depth SidebySide Refrigerator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
EDITED to add comments after 6 months of use:
People continue to curse at the stupid design of the water dispenser, and continue to spill water all over the place. Reducing the star rating from original 3 stars to 2. I would NOT recommend this unit, especially for the asking price. If you can find one on clearance, maybe, but again, there is NOTHING special about this that qualifies it to be priced above $1K imo.
ONE year warranty people...that should tell you something right there.
**********
Replaced a GE fridge with this model:
Due to my space limitations, I narrowed it down to the similar Kitchenaid model (kind of wish I had gone for this), and the Whirlpool at the same level. Bought online sight unseen fwiw.
Honestly, I don't see why the "PROFESSIONAL" designation on this. Nothing about the quality makes me think it's anything other than a very average refrigerator. Cheap, plastic bins just like every other average unit I have seen.
PROS:
- Best thing about this is the good looking AND practical stainless steel finish. It's great really - NO smudging (except on the handles) AND it's magnetic (something rare in SS models).
- "theater" lighting...when you open the doors at night, supposedly it doesn't blind you immediately, but rather gradually, as the lights ramp up
- Has a changeable air filter. I like this...no more arm and hammer boxes taking up space and tipping over. OTOH, another filter to replace.
- External, digital temp controls for both sides. I like the idea of this...but in reality, how often are you going to be changing the temperature? If you have to change it a lot, maybe there is a problem with the thermostat?
- this is a small thing, but I really like that some of the side compartments in the fridge have a non slip surface. Very nice touch. Instead of your jars of jelly sliding around and clanking into each other (except when the door closes, see below), things stay nicely in place.CONS:
- OMG THE DOOR SLAM. This one kills me, and for such a small thing, makes such a big negative impression because it's EVERY time you deal with the fridge. When you close the door, there is NO "cushion" for lack of a better or more technical word. On my very low end GE (and most every fridge out there for that matter), there is a built in governor I guess that slows the speed of the door so it doesn't just slam closed. I think what happens is that the resistance is just greater as you approach the closed position. Whatever that feature is, WP for some reason decided to leave it out on this fridge (maybe none of theirs have this, no idea). It is sooo annoying. We have gotten used to it more or less, and most of the time we carefully and slowly close the door so it doesn't rattle the whole kitchen. But anybody else (who of course is also used to the normal, slower fridge door behavior) closing the fridge door is always startled and usually jumps when the door SLAMS shut with a huge rattle. This is just piss poor design imo, and is a big negative. I am sure we will eventually get used to it, but shouldn't have to.
- another horrible, non standard design implementation re: water dispener. Unless you have an extremely wide cup (think wide coffee mug or even soup bowl/mug, you can't just push your glass into the unit expecting water to hit. Nooooo. Because of the design, any normal rim sized glass will be overshot by the water squirter, so you have to wrap your hand around the glass and then insert, to make up for the space. Never seen another fridge with this problem, and like the door slam issue, because it's so unusual, every time someone not living in our house goes for water, they end up getting it all over them and the floor. That tells you right there it's not just me being picky. I swear they designed the thing and never actually tested it in a real live situation. Inexcusable imo.
Because these two things have relatively easy workarounds, I am not going to go into below average territory. I doubt there is a perfect fridge out there, but I do wish I had gone for the Kitchenaid. I wonder if their engineers made similar mistakes.
3 stars, barely, and that is assuming that this unit will last many years w/o probs.
IMO, look at the Kitchenaid before buying this one.

New Wave Enviro Stainless Steel Water Dispenser Review

New Wave Enviro Stainless Steel Water Dispenser
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Although I been purchaseing products for well over decade from Amazon, I never written a review for Amazon before.. till now.
Just an aweful product.
This is a very Cheaply made, badly engineered and aweful quality control for such simple device costing so much for what it is.
As soon as I set this up, it sprung a leak from the spoket that connects to main body of the dispenser.
I tightened the plastic nut that holds the spoket to the stainless steel reservoir as hard as middleaged man can.
The rubber gasket that suppose to prevent leak is not soft enough so it's letting water out about drop per second.
If you happen to bump the spoket accidently, water is leaking everywhere.
Later, I also found another slow leak from the base of reservoir.
The reservoir is made of what looks like thick sheet metal, machine rolled body and stamped in base.
The leak is coming from where the body meets the base.
Stay far away from this product. You been warned.
