I had a Pure Zone air purifier in the kitchen for years and just ran out of filters for it. Before re-ordering more filters, I thought I would double check the EMF output to see if I perhaps needed to buy a different one that didn’t emit so many EMFs as my bedroom InvisiClean Sensa (which for whatever reason they don’t sell anymore) has a DC motor and emits very low levels of EMFs. I found this Cuisinart air purifier with a brushless DC motor and thought I’d give it a shot. I’m pleased to say, this is a huge improvement over the Pure Zone. EMFs for the Pure Zone are very high, even on level one. EMFs for the Cuisinart fall into the normal to medium range - with medium EMFs recorded only at level 3 (the highest fan speed). Noise level is acceptable. Also, the Cuisinart did a good job of removing the popcorn smell out of the kitchen after I popped some popcorn last night. Overall, it seems like a quality air purifier for smells and dust/pollen/dander and also emits low EMFs. They should really advertise the brushless DC motor in the first description and outline the low EMFs as there are people searching for exactly that in a sea of AC run, high EMF air purifiers. Stay away from anything that emits ozone also. This is why I like my Sensa and now this Cuisinart as well. No ozone.

I bought this iron because it seemed to be very goods in terms of steaming. In fact, the steam was good. However the cord stopped working within two months. Conair's policy is that you have to cut the cord and mail them a photo before they start processing any claim. I did that (see my photo) and e-mailed it to them. Two weeks later, they said they would send a new iron as soon as possible. A month later (we're now six weeks after the cutting of the cord), NOTHING - NOT A WORD When I call and they tell me it's in back order and they hope to receive 36 new ones withint the next few days and it would take one or two weeks to ship me the replacement. I have asked for my money back and they say maybe they will approve a refund, maybe not. In the meantime, I'm getting another iron - certainly not Conair.

Had this for two years now. We use the refillable one cup side mostly. I don’t like that the warmer shuts off after only 30 minutes and to be honest I think it’s more like 15. For $200 it should have a function of 30 minutes or an hour. I feel that I have to always be thinking about how long it’s been since I ran into the kitchen last to push any button so it doesn’t shut off. The top for the refillable 1 cup broke off eventually. Also this scare about black plastic being toxic! Especially when in contact with heat. I see they now offer the less toxic version in white for more money!

Very coarse grind even at the lowest setting. And the pieces differ in size at the same time. Bad product

Got this new set of cusinart knifes for Christmas wow what a difference from my old set of 45 years. These are very sharp and made very well and look great it my kitchen .

I love this thing. Takes a little getting used to haveing something over the sink, but once you do it is great. freed up a bunch of counter space. Now, it works great for me, but I live alone and use a lot of paper products, so, no big loads of dishes. Might not work so well for a large family.

I've had this blender for years. I just noticed it's shedding plastic. I have no idea how long it's been doing that, but although it still works, it's going jnto the recycling.

To start off, I bought a Ninja Creami and it went and broke on me after using a couple time. The part that broke is not covered under warranty and I ain't paying $130 to get a new part. Instead I spent $140 to upgrade my ice cream maker. Since my experience with Creami was bad because of a broken part, I checked to ensure that Cusinart makes it easy to get another bowl or paddle in case something does happen. For this specific model, I saw that Cuisinart does have replacement parts on cuisinartoutlets.com. There's a 2 year warranty so if anything does happen, I'm set. Moving on, it was easy to set up, I froze my bin for 24 hours and made my first batch of macadamia nut milk ice cream with macadamia nuts. I opted to use the ice cream option, even though there's no heavy cream. The default setting was 25 min but I bumped it up to 30. I checked on it every 10 min and I could tell it was getting thicker. (I was worried that maybe because I didn't use cream it wouldn't freeze.) The noise here was not too bad. Less than an AC? I'd say it's closer to and electric car. Much better than creami because now I can make my ice cream late night and not wake up the whole apartment complex. The creami does take 5 min while this took 30. But the better trade off, Cuisinart makes 2 quarts (for this test batch i did 1.5 qt) and creami did a measly pint. I chopped my "mix in" for the creami because the manual said it's was delicate (for a blender that loud that's ironic) when I'd do this and use the mix in setting, everything would be pulverized. I like some crunch and bits when eating ice cream. Not eating crumbs. I chopped my Mac nuts and poured it in my Cuisinart in the last 5 seconds and it did not disintegrate into oblivion. I did hear the machine struggle a little more but it didn't stop. I honestly should've left the timer to 25 min and combine my nuts at 20 min mark, when I added it at the 25 min mark it seemed done already and was mixing for no reason. Anyways, what I didn't know and pics don't do any justice but this little lid thing is actually a measuring cup! Wow! Its 1/2 cup measuring and I thought it was used to just cover the pour area but I'm impressed. Other tidbits, the overall size of Cuisinart is larger than creami and it feels like the Heaviest part is the bin itself. Large parts, so I can't lose anything like the little blade the creami has... underneath the machine, there is a pocket to stuff the cord after use and suction cups for feet if needed. Don't be fooled by that stupid 11-in-1 marketing ploy the creami has. I bought the deluxe version and it has all these buttons to do ice cream, lite ice cream, froyo etc but this little cool creation does the same even if it doesn't have all these extra buttons. Happier with this purchase. I'm selling my creami if anyone is interested in that ghetto piece of equipment, hit me up. (Updates) My first batch was a pint, 2 cups of my batch. I didn't have to baby it because the mix was moving and the container was about half filled. My second batch was a quart. After about 15 min on ice cream mode and I checked it, the mixture had expanded (as expected) and I noticed it was close to the lid. So I was worried it was going to overflow so I stood by to watch. It did not overflow, thankfully but the instructions do sat it can make 2 quarts but I'd be kind of worries because of how close to the top it was.. Overall, still great. I have 2 other recipes going in my head so it will be put to work.

Pros: it’s automatic Cons: it shreds the cork. The central screw isn’t solid in place, but moves. This causes the screw to take wild journey through the cork. As in the pic every cork comes out like this.
