Got this 3 piece knife with sheath and looks great. Delivered with in a day
Had mine since 2016….I use it a lot and no problems Need to keep coal from going under stone, fill two chimney's full of charcoal. Spread from 8 o’clock around to 4 o’clock. None in center. 800-900deg F. Buy a bamboo peel off cuisinartoutlets.com and flour (can cornmeal too). And make pizza on that and transfer into kettle. Be careful to keep peel dry so pizza dough will slide off nice. Spin and remove with metal peel. Only use whole milk mozzarella and a good sauce like don pepino. I take a store bought dough and cut in half. Make sure dough hits room temperature and rises before you make. Had for 7 years and it’s still in good shape and use it close to every week
No la use, al destaparla estaba sucia, parecía con grasa, adicional tenía algunos rayones y manchas. Por eso la regreso, pague por un producto nuevo.
I’m so impressed with this can opener! It’s incredibly easy to use—just press a button, and it smoothly opens cans with no effort required. The sleek design is both functional and modern, and it works on a variety of can sizes. What I love most is how safe it is; the edges of the can are completely smooth, preventing any cuts. It’s been a huge time-saver in the kitchen, and I’m so glad I purchased it. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make meal prep a little easier!
Product is just as described. All the pieces were conveniently packaged together. I can't wait to open and start using these tonight! Shipping was incredibly fast and the tracking info was super helpful.
Came quickly through the mail and was packaged very well. Very easy to use and can be adjusted depending on your needs. Has great performance, easy to move around and doesn't weigh too much. Unfortunately doesn't have a crumb tray but you can very easily shake it out. Doesn't make too much noise and doesn't take up much space. Overall, a great toaster.
I use it to chop imitation crab flakes to make a salad to have in tostadas. It makes it easier chopping it instead of hand pulling the strands of the meat.i took away 1 star because sometimes food gets stuck in the crevices of the zigzag shape. Other than that, it’s great!
The grill tools are decent enough. They are basically identical to a million other similarly priced sets. Really I just bought this one because I also ordered the Cuisinart grill as well. Anyway, the case as you can see in the picture is not terribly well made and if you leave it on the side table of the grill long enough to grill a couple of burgers it will melt off. But again for the price they are fine.
This is my second purchase of this model, the first one lasted over 4 years with daily use as often as 6x a day. I'm not really sure why it died but probably just used up its life with such frequent use. Some updated features that I really love are: 1. the basket for espresso grounds is spring loaded instead of the sliding button that broke off early on with the first machine. 2. The drip pan is now made out of heavy duty plastic so no more concern for the enamel peeling off from the acidity from coffee drips. Aside from the machine being a bit loud, it works great and is easy to use. The steaming wand makes perfectly frothy milk (almond, coconut, and dairy alike) I wish it came with small shot glasses for the coffee itself but other than that, I love this machine and hope this one lasts just as long, or longer, than my first. ***TIP*** If using the steaming wand, be sure to take off the outer sleeve and clean daily, or at least every other day. If you don't, it will accumulate milk fat, etc., inside and get a bit crusty. I usually run a cup of just clean water afterwards then wipe and soak for easy cleaning.
Seems like a good quality aluminum compared to my other pots. I'll update after a few uses.
Quality you expect from cuisinart. The lock feature did not exist on my previous one. It’s a little annoying but I can adjust to this safety measure? It’s a great deal for all the functions, without all the bulky heavy equipment.
I am very surprised that these pans have such high reviews. I have used them a few times over the last 2 weeks and the paint is already chipping off all around the bottom! I didn’t put them in the dishwasher, this damage is from normal use and I definitely recommend finding some other pots and pans that last more than a few uses! These are awful.
Se rompió en el primer uso
works well, seems to be good quality except for the top, after a few uses the top plastic swivel safety lock broke
This is my second mixer. Although decent, it's slightly hindered by poor controls and layout. I bought this mixer on a pre-Christmas sale for $129. For that price, it's great. But price aside, there are a few design issues that makes this mixer not as good as my 15 yr old Kitchenaid. Poor ergonomic head latch/release mechanism: ------------------------------------------------------- See my first picture. Raising and lowering the mixing head requires two hands on the Cuisinart, whereas on the Kitchenaid, this can be done with just one hand. On the Cuisinart, the release latch is poorly located way at the back of the unit. It's harder to reach. Furthermore, the latch is spring loaded which mandates two-handed operation. It requires one hand reaching way back and depressing the locking lever against a spring, and SIMULTANEOUSLY, requires a second hand at the front to raise or lower the head. This is really inconvenient because when I'm working with the mixer, my hands are often covered with flour, oil, sticky syrup, or dough. With the Kitchenaid, the latching mechanism is on the side. It' much closer to the user, and it's also not spring loaded. So with one hand, I can release the head on the Kitchenaid, and then with the same hand, tilt the head up (or down). It can be a 2-step process but it requires only one hand. Again, this is immensely useful when one hand is clean and the other hand has been in batter. There is a safety argument in favor of the Cuisinart however: it is not possible to accidentally have the head down and unlocked, and it's not possible to have the head up and accidentally bump it such that it falls down. (both these scenarios are possible with the Kitchenaid, with the unlocked head in the down position being a rather common and benign occurrence with me.) However, the rear location of the locking mechanism is inconvenient and probably a deal breaker for ADA (wheelchair) usage. The speed control knob is poor: ------------------------------ From an ergonomics perspective, I generally recommend knobs over sliders for variable controls. For example, light dimmers, volume controls, fan speed, etc. In the case of these mixers, I have found that it's the opposite: A lever is better than a knob. On the Kitchenaid, the speed control is a lever and it's sensibly placed so that the slider is front<->back, making it relatively easy to operate. I can effectively change the speed of the mixer on the Kitchenaid with my left PALM or WRIST when my hands are dirty. Also, because I'm right handed, I tend to get my left hand dirty more often while cooking so I do tend to operate the lever with whatever clean part of my hand I can find. For some people this is a non-issue. They don't mind getting dough/grease/syrup etc on the mixer because they know they will clean it up afterwards, but it does cause contamination or unintended mixing of trace ingredients for people that don't mind getting their mixer dirty while cooking. On the Cuisinart, the speed control is a knob. It requires 2-3 FINGERS to grip the knob to turn it. Again, the problem here is that sometimes both hands get a little messy when cooking, and having to wipe dry or wipe clean fingers before I can change the mixer speed is a hassle. BTW, controls at the front or top of the mixer would have been better placed. I would guess this should be trivial to do with today's low cost electronics, but would require a design change. Other complaints: --------------------- The head on the Cuisinart is longer and moves (deflects) more. i.e. in technical terms, we say it has a longer moment-arm. In lay terms, it means it sticks out further and thus has more movement when mixing. This would be expected if the mixing bowl was larger on the Cuisinart, but it is not. Both mixing bowls are the same diameter. So the Kitchenaid is better designed in this area. The Cuisinart is lighter overall so might vibrate a bit more. The heavier Kitchenaid is slightly more stable when mixing. (However, the motor on my new Cuisinart mixer is quieter than the motor on my 15 year old Kitchenaid.) The Good: ------------ The front of the unit looks better on the Cuisinart. The Battlestar Galactica Centurion cyclops looking magnetic cover that sits in front of the attachment connection is cleaner on the Cuisinart than the Kitchenaid's protruding cylinder. However, this magnetic cover, while it does look better to me, it's very easy to bump and knock off, and have it fall into the batter. The holding mechanism (a magnet) is not very secure. My Cuisinart attachments work on the Kitchenaid and my Kitchenaid attachments work my Cuisinart. They seem interchangable in both directions as far as I can tell. The higher power 600W motor on the Cuisinart makes a difference. I have a grain mill mixer attachment. It uses quite a bit of power to grind grains into flour. On the Kitchenaid, 300W is not enough. The Cuisinart's 600W motor is noticeably more powerful for this. The splash guard for the Cuisinart is better (more effective at preventing splash-out than the one that came with my Kitchenaid. So my feeling are mixed (pun intended) between these two mixers. If I were to just have one due to space constraints, I'd spend more money to get a higher powered Kitchenaid. It's just nicer to use from day-to-day. But having two mixers is handy, especially when making pasta. I can put the dough sheeter attachment on one mixer and the pasta cutter on the other one. I can quickly sheet, then cut the dough into pasta. It greatly improves workflow. For people that have the space, for $130, getting a second mixer was well worth it.
