This snow cone machine is compact, cute, and all plastic 🤔 I was hoping to let my grandbabies help me make some snow cones but honestly the handle seems to fragile and I'm afraid they will break it. I wish it would be more sturdy. When I put the ice and press the handle down the whole thing shakes 😳😳😳 the handle seems to be kind of fragile. I'm just hoping it will last a while since my grandbabies love snow cones so much as you can see on their faces 😁 The snow is not as fluffy as I was hoping for. Overall the machine does the job but I think eventually I will get a bigger, sturdier and better one.
It's pretty sad when the handles are sharper than the blades! The aluminum parts along the plastic are sticking up and are very sharp! Returning!
An update. The carafe copper coating started peeling. I guess it was made during pandemic or post pandemic when quality control was lacking. Never underestimate warranty. Cuisinart warranty works within 3 years from purchase date. Register your product on Cuisinart website. I contacted Cuisinart Customer Service and after submitting proof of purchase (go to your cuisinartoutlets.com order history and save your order invoice) and received my carafe replacement soon after that. Happy customer here.
Once I got through the instructions and figured out exactly how it works, my husband and I both love it. It took patience and time. You just have to know that it has to be on brew(knob has to click) to set the clock. (The brew setting didn’t quite line up to the mark on dial; hence feeling the click). The Auto off is in 1, 2, 3, or 4 hours. (That confused us at first). The top buttons are for the 12 cup process. The bottom button is for the one cup. The signals are on inner timers; they will eventually shut off accordingly. We love the notification when water is low. (I purchased the discounted option; so it was missing a filter; I just called the manufacturer and they sent the missing item). I ordered a reusable pod set separately. Just have patience and take the time to get it all figured out.. In the end, after completing the setup and getting a rolling tray; we’re fully satisfied!!
I realize I got deal of year (Dec 22) for only $75 total for it. They are $150 or more now. The cast iron is heavy pot and lid. I find this fantastic made and Ceramic coating. I mention it’s heavy for those that may not be able to lift it easy. Not to say negative. It’s a beautiful color red! First time I made pot roast I was afraid I’d never get it clean. It practically wipes off with a few swishes under the water and brand new again. Now I cook way more in it than I thought. Even made a beer bread in it so you can bake anything in it. If you always wanted one of these cast iron pots (like me) you will be please you paid for the top brand.
First off, this is a 120 V hand blender, so for the folks in the other countries do check if you need a voltage converter for this to function. Most countries are either 120 V or 240 V. Also for the voltage converter you would need one that is compatible with your wattage. I.e the maximum watt of this hand blender is 200W, so you need a voltage converter of at least 200W but not too high either. However even with my 300W converter I couldn't pulse it on and off for more then 3 minutes before my voltage converter got too hot and tripped on me. To be fair, I'm not too sure which of the equipment is giving me the problem here. As for the grinder/chopping function, im not too sure if I just have insufficient amount of shrimps or biscuits to grind, or if it just cannot get to the fine-ness that I'm looking for! After grinding for a couple of rounds (restarting after my converter trips), there are still chucks of shrimps that cannot be ground finely. I've tried using both the sharp and grind edge of the blade, but results are still similar. For smoothies, it works fine churning fruits into creamy froths (:
Looks ok...BUT... what's up with this enamel? Gonna have to return it I guess...
This was CR’s top ranked coffee machine. I’m not sure I agree fully, but it’s absolutely a good machine. Assembly is quick. It includes an optional carbon filter and a reusable coffee filter (not used by us). It’s easy to use and includes options to schedule coffee so you have it ready for breakfast. That being said, I don’t think the hype is quite right. I had a Technivorm Moccamaster before and the flavor of the coffee was simply better than the Cuisinart. If you can’t tell the difference between two cups of coffee or are on a budget, buy this machine. It’s good. But for me, it just isn’t the same grade coffee as the Moccamaster brewed.
Edit: Stopped working within a couple of months. Reached out to seller, never heard back. It was great while it lasted. What's worse is I invested in all of the accessories, and the blade doesn't even spin anymore. I do large batch cooking and I hate to dice veggies, because it takes a while. This machine dices my veggies up beautifully! Celery, onions and carrots turned put great!
I have 2 of these pots that I use primarily for making fudge at Christmas time. The one I am doing the review on was purchased as a gift for my DIL for her birthday. These are the only pots that I can make a double batch of fudge and not worry about it sticking. I do have to stir occasionally, but not continuously. I highly recommend this pot.
I bought stainless hoping they would last. I’ve used about 6 times for various easy tasks around the kitchen. Today they broke cutting a plastic wrap on meat package. Have always hand washed and dried well. And of course I’m just outside the return window…..
I love, love this pressure cooker. I can't say enough about the ease of opening and closing with one twist. The gasket is attached to a shield which does not come loose, but is easy to remove and clean. Most importantly is the safety steam release. All by pushing a button. No risk of a steam burn. I was unsure about the non stick pot, I have only used stainless steel before. But I must say I like the non stick better. It seems very durable and is super easy to clean. Large lit menu, I can actually read. The cord is detachable. I don't even reach for my instant pots anymore. I just wish they made this model in 8 quart size. I would buy it also. A winner. You won't regret this purchase.
Amazing, just what I need it, I like that brings a cover
This pan has some weight to it. A full pan of lasagna cooked evenly and was delicious 😋. Clean up was so easy! The stainless steel cleans up quickly. I can't wait to roast a bird in this pan on the rack that comes with it, leaving the juices behind for gravy! Like I said, this is by far the best pan I've owned and well worth the money spent. Thank you Cuisinart for quality and versatile products!
This is my second purchase of this model in 5 years - old one finally rusted out from PAC NW weather I have owned a lot of different grills by different makers but this one is the best for me because: + Grill Size is perfect for cooking for 2 to 4 people +. Small footprint takes up very little space on my tiny patio + Portable base makes it easy to move or take on a picnic + Engineered to be easy to use - instant on, great heat control, easy to clean +. Never Burns Food - cooks quickly and evenly Only complaint - cuisinartoutlets.com delivered late (due to excessive demand I guess)
