Weber® Genesis Silver A Gas LP Grill - Black Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Charcoal grilling arguably produces better flavors, but propane has inarguable convenience.Some of the benefits of propane include push-button ignition, no lighter fluid, no coaxing the charcoal to burn evenly and no messy charcoal to clean up.If you've made the decision to go propane, the Weber Silver A is a good selection.It's a well-made and of sturdy construction.It requires some assembly, but no tools that aren't provided with grill. The manufacturer claims the grill can be assembled in less than 40 minutes and that's approximately how long it took me to assemble it.It is necessary to lift the heavy body of the grill and set it down upon the stand.The directions show two people performing this task.I was assembling the grill by myself and was able to do this by myself, but I would imagine it is wiser and safer to do it with two people.The Silver A is significantly smaller than many of the other grills on the market.I have limited space in my backyard, so the more compact design was an added plus. If considering the Silver A, you should probably look at the Silver B as well.Although a little more expensive, the Silver B offers 36,000 BTU's to the Silver A's more modest 26,000 BTU's.Although I'm happy with the performance of the Silver A, the Silver B is probably worth the investment if the grill is going to get heavy usage.There is a Silver C model as well, but this is a larger model that does not share the more compact design of its smaller siblings.I recommend the Silver A to anyone looking for a compact, but quality propane grill, but would urge the prospective purchaser to look at the more powerful yet compact Silver B model as well.

Weber 6840001 Genesis Gold B Natural Gas, Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had to cancel my order when Amazon kept pushing my delivery date back. I still bought the genesis gold B from my local hardware store.It cooks great and has all the features I was looking for. It heats up and is ready to cook in a couple of minutes.

I upgraded to the gold because the grill, flavorizer bars ( those things the juice drips on and gives the flavor to the meat) and burners are stainless steel instead of porcelin coated steel.I really like having a second side table instead of side burner.

When we launched the Genesis gas grill line back in 1985, we launched more than a new line of grills- we launched a grilling revolution.The Genesis line changed the way gas grills work with a new and innovative cooking system that stopped flare-ups and created even heat without messy lava rocks.Our system was so good, it wasn't long before other brands tried to replicate it.Close, but no cigar.Weber's cooking system is still the best on the market, and here's why:Burneres made of high-grade stainless steel run the length of the cookbox, providing even heat accross the grill.--Flavorizer bars completely cover the burners, no holes or cutouts.They are precisely angled to generate heat and facilitate run off of juices that aren't vaporized. --A drip system for directing grease away from the burners.Drippings are channeled into a funnel shaped bottom tray under the burners and collect in a large drip pan.Both the funnel-shaped tray and the drip pan are easy to remove from the front of the grill.--At least two or more individually controlled burners for cooking direct or indirect.Burners have infinite control valves so you can fine tune the temperature.Genesis Gold gas grills include two model types--B and C. Gold B models have three burners, and Gold C models have three burners and a12,000 BTU-per-hour input side burner.

Weber 6750001 Genesis Gold C Propane Grill Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This grill really is fantastic.I've had it for 2 months now, with absolutely no buyers remorse at all.

Pros:
1.Excellent heat control with a 3-zone heating system.Turn off the middle zone, and you go from direct heating to convection style grilling.I'm finding the capability to switch from direct to convection-style heating to be useful for cooking things like fish, chicken, and ribs without scorching the outside.

2.Fantastic temperature control from 250 degrees F, all the way up to 600 degrees.The temperature gauge on the front is really useful.

3.The fuel indicator is a nice feature.

4.It's very simple to remove any parts that tend to get messy and put into the dishwasher.Cleanup is a snap.The parts fit in the dishwasher without taking up all the space.

Cons (really just a few minor annoying things):

1.The lower cabinet is not water proof.Anything left in it will get wet in the rain.

2.My lower cabinet doors tend to swing open too easily.I added a magnetic door latch to deal with the problem.

3.The sideburner does not put out that many BTU's.It's more of a warmer than a burner.I ussually have to light the sideburner with a match, as the lighting switch doesn't seem to consistently work for the sideburner.

4.This grill is really heavy.Don't expect to throw it in the back of your pickup and take to the park.It's a 2-man job to move it around.

Overall fantastic grill, with a few minor annoyances.I give it 5 stars, mostly for the excellent temperature control, and the fact that I've gone from a grill meister that scorched the outside of the meat 50% of the time (with my previous grill), to perfect consistent results everytime.

Haier HWR08XC7 8,000-BTU Window Air Conditioner with Remote Control Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Have been running it for a week. Here are my observations:

1) This unit is loud. I mean it, it's LOUD!!! Even when running at minimal speed, with "energy saving" mode on. Not sure how many decibels (db) it pumps out, but it's pretty close to my vacuum cleaner. In a 200 sq.ft. room, you won't be able to sleep or watch TV or conduct a conversation with this air conditioner on, granted!

2) It doesn't cool our room (280 sq.ft) well. They say it's 8,000 BTU. Well, I would subjectively say it's closer to 6,000 than 8,000. The outcoming air is just marginally cooler than the room air. Also, the internal temperature sensor is off by about 5 degrees. Right now it shows 68'F, perhaps to look good and show that the A/C is doing it's job... However my wall room thermometer stands 72'F! Well, here in the U.S, we call this cheating. Big no-no.
Bottom line: we're returning this one back, even though we got it cheap, with 30% off the price sticker. Well, now I know why... you get what you pay.

Weber 6740001 Genesis Gold B Propane, Stainless Steel Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got lucky on my purchase of the 2005 Genesis Gold B. Apparently the store I purchased it at put Genesis Silver B barcodes on the Gold B boxes, so I ended up getting charged 499 instead of 599. The grill is worth every penny so far. It's a miser when it comes to gas, and it heats up to 550 degrees in about 5-10 minutes! That's amazingly fast. New to the 2005 models are the doors, and it's apparent, because they're my only complaint about the design of the unit. They just don't open and close perfectly. Also be warned that Weber Grills in 2005 no longer ship with a propane tank. You must have one or buy one seperately. I wish the burners were further apart for indirect cooking of large pieces of meat. I had a large rack of ribs, and the edges got charred while I had the middle burner turned off. Next time I'll use foil. Chalk that mistake up to not knowing better.

Make sure you have someone around when you're putting this grill together. Step 3 requires you to put the top onto the legs, and this requires 2 people. Other than that, I was able to quickly put everything together and was grilling within an hour of starting the project. I really wish Weber would start using words in their instructions rather than just try to convey all the instructions with pictures. But like I said, I was able to easily get everything put together. I also bought the appropriate grill cover from Amazon and it fits like a glove. Great investment.

I owned a Weber Baby Q while living in an apartment, and loved it to death. It's now relegated to beach trip duty while my new Genesis Gold B is the workhorse of the house. Good job Weber!

Weber 9859 Premium Gas Grill Cover Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After tons of agonizing, I bought a Weber Gold C grill and like most others decided I didn't want to get a cheap, flimsy cover for it, so I swallowed hard and ordered this one.It was about the same cost at Home Depot, but with free shipping and no tax, I got it here.This is the cover for the 2002 model of the Gold Genesis B and C grills, as well as the silver C.My neighbor has a Weber and when I asked him his opinion of his grill, he said he was happy with it, but wished that he had spent the extra money on a real cover, instead of buying a cheaper one that fit it.This one isn't hard to put on at all, I read somewhere that it fit like a glove and I thought, oh no, it will be hard getting it on and off. It isn't. It slides right over the grill and velcro straps on the bottom edge allow you to tighten it, even though there was no chance it would have blown off without tightening it.I also was afraid it would be like a raincoat, sticking to itselt so that you constantly had to peel it off itself to get over the grill.Not at all, it is not that sticky plasticy material, instead it is a nice weighted material and lined on the inside so it never sticks to itself.Good job Weber.

Oregon Scientific RGR682 Wireless Rain Gauge with 10-Day Rainfall Memory and Digital Clock Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It worked for a few weeks.Now, it no longer computes rainfall and I can't get the Total and Current display to stop blinking.I looked all through the booklet but nothing mentions my problem.I've E-Mailed the company and they had me pull the batteries, let it sit for a day and reinsert the batteries.I let it sit for two days, put in new batteries and still can't get it to work.I'm now waiting on a reply (takes about a week to get replies).I figured I'd spend additional money to get a good one - BIG MISTAKE!

UPDATE:They had me "reset" the unit.It worked.Unfortunately, we went through a dry spell.It just rained and guess what?It no longer works.To reset the unit AGAIN means pulling the cover, removing a bunch of screws, battery and hitting the reset button.But why do that - it will just stop working again.I sent a message back to the company.Let's see if they do the right thing.I will keep everyone informed.

UPDATE [September 6, 2008] - They replied with another question and haven't replied since August 28, 2008.

UPDATE [September 19, 2008] - Just got their reply (from August 28).They want me to go through the reset process again!I informed them that they win - I give up.Not once did they offer to provide a replacement or discount - super company!

Oneida Large Non-stick Roasting Pan with Rack Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a rather large pan with removable nonstick rack that will hold all but the biggest birds. The interior nonstick surface cleans easily, but getting it in your sink (or dishwasher) can be a challenge. The plain aluminum exterior scratches if you so much as look at it, and mine came apparently pre-loved with a hard surface. In practice however one pan works as well as another. The rack holds food securely, doesn't stick to the food, fits well, and the entire contraption will fit into even smallish ovens if need be. The handles are secure and the pan cools quickly (thanks to its aluminum construction). Overall not bad, just $10 more than it should be.

Genesis Hova-Bator Preset Picture Window Electonic Egg Incubator - TUV / CUL Rated! Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a licensed poultry technician with many years of incubation & hatching experience, with units large and small.I am often asked for advice on which table top unit is best.I'm happy to endorse this particular design.

There is also a video demonstration of this unit available on YouTube if you care to search it out.Step by step, including all optional components.I do not have any part in selling this unit, only endorse it as the best hobby level table top unit available today, for the money.

You will see many table top incubators, all appearing very similar in style and composition.So what makes one better than another?

The Genesis Hova-Bator Model # 1588 is my number one choice when recommending a unit to teachers, pre-school directors or other small scale hatching projects.

Things which make this unit a "stand-out"

First, the basic design...
The top inverts and nests neatly into the bottom for storage, requiring less space when not in use.When the top is in the operating position, this incubator has plenty of space for larger eggs, without the extension ring offered by some other manufacturers/models.It's not sharply squared.. this appears cosmetic, but actually, allows air to circulate more efficiently than sharp cornered units do.

Efficiency, this unit has the heating coil neatly wrapped on the fan unit, rather than spread out over the interior top surface like others.This is a plus when it comes to cleaning between hatches.

There is a large viewing area.This is a great advantage when you are explaining the hatching process to lots of little people who "want to see"...other units often have two smaller viewing windows.The top window is very clear, without distortion.

Another strong feature is, the digital thermostat does not have an external adjustment for little fingers to fiddle with.It comes pre-set from the factory and is ready for chicken egg incubation, right out of the box.You unpack the unit, put the elements together, plug it in and you're off and running.24 hours later (after temps stabilize) you put in the fertile hatching eggs and incubation begins... it's THAT simple.

I tested the interior temperature (factory set) with a certified/calibrated digital thermometer and found the unit I received to operate at 99.8 deg. F.this is a very good temperature for forced air incubators.This temperature was held to a "T".No further adjustment was necessary.

IF you are hatching something other than chicken eggs, you can indeed adjust the digital thermostat from inside the unit top.There are very detailed instructions on how to do this, with the unit.

One of the strongest features this incubator offers, and why I am so enthusiastic about it, it the fact that it runs on 12V DC current.The plug goes through an adapter for your 110v wall socket.Why is this important?Well, because if there is a power loss, due to a spring storm, you no longer have to worry about losing all your developing embryos.GQF offers a 12V DC adapter with the unit, which can be clipped onto a battery... car batteries, for example, are 12V DC.This allows the unit to keep running, warming and circulating air, in the event of an outage.When power comes back on, simply plug it back into the regular plug in adapter.This is a BIG advantage over other units.

Accessories I recommend with this unit are:

1- The automatic egg turner... you don't have to worry about weekends, or forgetting to turn your eggs.It runs on a 4 hour cycle.

2- Definitely get the optional 12V battery adapter, because you just never know when your power may go out.

If you are a teacher, about to begin an incubation unit in your class... this is the one I would use for the class room.You don't have to worry about little Johnny touch-touch, altering the temperature when you are not looking.

For the hobbyist or home school educator, this is a sort of sure shot incubator.42 chicken egg capacity.... if you are into quail, then quail cups come with the automatic turner kit.. with a capacity of 120 quail per hatch.

The owner's manual is detailed and well presented, complete with photos and illustrations.Get the entire kit, you won't be sorry.

There is also an optional goose egg set for the automatic turner, holds fewer than the chicken egg set up, but the unit is more than large enough to accommodate goose or swan eggs.

One of the Sponsored links for this listing is for www.Strombergschickens.com this is where I obtained my unit as reviewed, with all the mentioned accessories.A flawless transaction.

Enjoy...Fred,Fred's Fine Fowl

Bertazzoni : Professional X304GGVXLP 30 Pro-Style Gas Range Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We looked for about a year, comparing ranges, and finally decided on the Bertazzoni. We couldn't be happier.

What we love:

Stove top - It has 4 different burners, which allow you to simmer, heat fast, use small or large pans, and really regulate the heat. The double burner (one burner inside the other) comes in handy to evenly heat larger pans -- I can hardly wait to try to make some paella.

One feature we really like is the "reverse" regulation with the knobs. If you want really low flame, you crank the knob to where it stops. In most ranges it works the other way around - the low flame is in the lowest position - with gas ranges it is really hard to find the precise spot between having a low flame, and having no flame. The way the Bertazzoni is designed, your burner is on and you are sure you have it at the lowest setting.

It is well built, and sturdy. The guy that installed it thought it was a Viking from the weight and way it feels -- but it is about 1/3 of the price of a Viking.

It has a 2 year warranty. We needed some adjustments and the lighting mechanism of two burners was failing a few weeks after it was delivered. I called Bertazzoni - the parts arrived in a few days, and the technician was here the day after the parts arrived. Excellent customer service.

No digital controls!!! When looking for ranges, we found most of them have digital controls. I had heard that some of these ranges (especially in the $1000-$3000 range) have very noisy fans. After talking to a few sales people, I found out that since the digital controls are not supposed to be exposed to the heat, these ranges need an additional cooling/fan element to keep the digital controls from getting too hot. At that point I was on a mission to find a good range with manual knobs.

It has a beautiful design! We didn't buy it for the looks, but it is certainly a bonus.

FEATURES WE LIKE, BUT MAY NOT BE FOR EVERYONE
The oven is relatively small, as ovens go. It is wide, but not very tall. You can fit 2 pyrex with no problem, but you probably wouldn't be able to fit a turkey and a pyrex. Since we seldomly need that big of a volume in an oven, we solved the problem by buying a convection-microwave for under $300 for the rare occassions when we need more oven volume.

On the positive, since it is a smaller oven, it takes less energy to heat up, saving up on gas usage.

When the oven is on, the sound of the fan is noticeable. We don't mind it, but it is something you may want to consider.

SOME LIMITATIONS
The minimum theoretical temperature of the oven is 275 degrees - so if you often cook or bake dishes that require much lower temperature, this may not be the oven for you. We recently made some dishes that required the oven to be 250 degrees. We found we could achieve this by having the oven at the lowest setting, and setting the trays in the top oven shelf.

Since the controls are not digital (see above), it takes a little getting used to the oven knob to get the precise temperature control. We have a $5 oven thermometer, and that works very well.

For the price and the quality, we couldn't be happier.

La Crosse Technology Weather Channel WS-7042TWC Wireless Weather Station Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this item twice. Once for a friend who recently graduated from a meteorology program, and the second time for a father's day gift. My weatherman friend likes it a lot because it almost does his job for him. It shows outdoor temperature, barometric pressure, indoor temperature, time, and predicts the quality of the weather by measuring all those things. My friend enjoyed it so much that I got one for my dad with two extra sensors. He now uses it at his lake house in Maine. The three sensors were placed down near the lake, in the woods, and right outside the house. Each of these sensors took about 10 minutes to set up, but it works wonderfully. The station predicted sun, and we had sun. It predicted rain, we went fishing and got lots of fish, and it rained. This is a really great station and works very well and has kept two people very happy.

(More customer reviews)I you're of average or above intelligence and haven't dropped out of high school this is a great little product.You can heat your hot chocolate or tea up just fine.Don't leave the house with it on, however.A third grader would know better than that one would presume.

La Crosse Technology 4 Day Weather Direct (Internet Enabled) Forecast Station Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you don't like using a computer to get fancy up-to-the-minute personalized weather forecasts, then you may prefer this to the TV, newspaper, or radio.

But it is disappointing that the outdoor temperature from the wireless sensor that they give you (the most basic of information, that changes the most quickly) is the least convenient piece of data to get out of the system.

You know the old joke about the weatherman who predicts a warm sunny day and doesn't have the sense to look out the window and see the cold rain falling?

That's what I'm reminded of, after spending an hour trying to discover a convenient way to find out what the temperature is outside with my fancy new wireless, internet-connected "weather direct" device.

I finally read in the manual how to get it to show me the indoor temperature all the time on the display (use the "+" key...).But to see the outdoor temperature, I either have to wait up to 40 seconds for the right text to scroll by on the display, or I have to reach over and press a button on it and look quickly before it goes away.And you need to brace the unit to press the button since it doesn't come with any mounting screws.Sort of a pain if it is in an awkward place. That is still better than when I started on the slow scroll speed - it was 60 seconds then.

Next I thought, hey - they say this thing lets you find out your own outdoor temperature via the internet (e.g. if you're on vacation).So I should be able to write a program to do that and show it to me on a corner of my computer screen.

But sadly, the web site only shows it to you via a proprietary "flash" plugin.That means that you can't see it on even the fanciest of mobile phones like the iPhone, Blackberry or Android, or via a number of other common internet devices either. And you have to share your own temperature with [...] in order to see it yourself.Or so I' told - the Weather Direct tech support person couldn't log in himself and said it looked like the site was "being updated".And he confirmed that there wasn't an easier way to get the outdoor temperature.

I think I'll go get a simple wireless indoor outdoor thermometer, since the current temperature is what I look for dozens of times a day and there are so many ways to get the forecast.

La Crosse Technology WS-9032U Wireless Weather Station Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this model because it is one of the few available which can measure both indoor and outdoor relative humidity (RH%) and indoor barometric pressure without too many other unecessary features. It also had a nice stainless steel/champagne color, matching well with our kitchen decor. Setup and initial programming was easy, however, batteries (3 AA in the main unit and 2 AA in the sensor) were not included. There is a similar model, WS-9035U, which has a wind meter--recommend you pass on it, because anemometer placement is tricky. Wind speeds are highly dependent on neighboring structures and trees. Basically, wind meters want to be on a pole in the middle of an empty field. There are also some other (more expensive) "Weather Channel" branded models which have Heat Index or Wind Chill capability. (I guess if you live in Arizona you'd choose the Heat Index model...) The only other model I would consider buying is WS-9018U, which has identical features as the WS-9032U, but has a disctinctive oval shape. Bear in mind that you will pay more for that shape, and the display items appear smaller. I found the TX4U remote unit to be accurate and well calibrated, revealing errors in my plain ol' outdoor temperature dial. The instructionsdon't say a whole lot about locating the TX4U, but you must keep it out of direct sunlight. Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase and am spending hours and hours staring at it!(-:

Ferry Morse 980 Soil Test Kit Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bottom line: professional results were very different for pH, Phosphorous, and Potash on the same sample of dirt. But the cheap kit was much faster.
I did an experiment with the same sample of dirt to determine if I could trust these kits. The Ferry Morse pH test takes < 5 minutes. Four portion color scale for 5.0 to 8.0 was easy to read. Some interpretation is necessary for colors between the scales. Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Potash tests require about 30 minutes to complete all three simultaneously. The color charts were much more difficult to discern than the pH test after 10 minutes. The actual results became more clear after ~ 2 hours. Still, much faster than the 3 weeks it took to send off for lab results.
Results below: Ferry Morse test kit vs Colo State Professional Labs
pH = 7.8 vs 7.1
N = Very Low vs Low (this was accurate)
Phosphorous = Very Low vs High
Potash = Very Low vs High

I was about to buy some product to lower pH and raise all levels of fertilizer by huge amounts. But this would have done more damage than good. Glad I waited for the professional results.
