Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)To make a properly chilled Martini you need a shaker and a strainer. This brushed steel shaker has both. And less expensive shakers often have ill-fitting lids that won't come off at the most embarrassing moment (think of it, you are dressed in your suavest tuxedo, and are making a chilled martini for your lady in your penthouse apartment and boff! The steel lid sticks on the shaker and the moment is lost!)

30 Pint Dehumidifier Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased this for our basement where we keep cat litter boxes in the unfinished area. Keeping the humidity down helps keep the odor down, so we love this product. The real test will come next summer during high humidity. Only problem we had was putting the front cover back on after using a garden hose for direct drain...the cut out area for the hose is not quite big enough. However, finally solved the problem with common sense. Just left the cover off and taped the fill indicater shut (has to be shut for the unit to start running). So far doing a great job.

Pepper Mill Imports, Chef's Mate Brass Pepper Mill Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pros: Larger volume of ground pepper per turn compared to tabletop varieties. Small size make storage easy.
Cons: Hopper is difficult to open by hand, may be easier to open as usage increases and the parts wear in.
This is a great small pepper mill. I have the Peugeot Fidji 8-1/4-Inch Pepper Mill and for cooking it's a little tiring turning the top for a tablespoon of ground pepper. A friend of mine has the Pepper Mill Imports, Atlas 8" Brass Pepper mill, and I like that mill better than the Chef's Mate because it's handle is about twice as long, it produces more ground pepper per turn and it is about $8.00 less expensive.
If you don't have room for an eight-inch mill the Chef's Mate will fit just about anywhere.

Chef's Secret by Maxam 5-ply Stainless Steel Round Griddle Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This griddle is heavy and well made. It is almost a work of sculpture and I did my research before I bought it. By coincidence, the glass lid also fits some of my other pans, making it even more useful.
I can put it on an electrical unit that is smaller than the pan and it spreads the heat well. It would also fit over a gas range or even an outdoor grill or cook stove. It cleans up easily.
It was also shipped fast. I am pleased with this purchase.

Old Dutch 48-by-18-Inch Oval Pot Rack with 16 Hooks, Satin Nickel Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After looking at the large variety of pot racks listed we decided to go with this one because of its size, looks and apparent quality. We liked the size of being long and narrow as it went about a long and narrow island in our kitchen. The size is perfect and we we have 14 different pots and pans hanging perfectly on it without any crowding. It was very easy to put together..only took about 15 minutes. The whole thing is very high in quality with thick sturdy steel and large bolts. I also found it was very easy (but a bit heavy) to hang. You just need to drill 2 pilot holes into the ceiling into joists. You then screw in the hook bolts by hand and hang. You just need to make sure you have 2 ceiling joists (or one long one running the length) of where you want to put it. This is far easier to hang then trying to install one with chains. Once hung it is very sturdy and able to hold a lot of weight. As well it looks awesome in the kitchen. You won't be disappointed.

For added convenience, the unit's concealed heating element resists scale and mineral buildup, while its Aquascreen filter, which keeps water pure, can be removed for cleaning. Other highlights include a "boil-cycle" indicator light, two easy-to-read water-level windows, an easy-grip stay-cool handle, and a lid that snaps tightly into place for safe use.

J.K. Adams PRC-02-N Ceiling Oval Pot Rack, Natural Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I initially purchased the smaller sibling of this rack J.K. Adams PRC-24 Mini Ceiling Oval Pot Rack, Natural but found it a bit too small for my needs. The larger model turned out to be more suited to the quantity of cookware I had accumulated over the years.
The mounting points for this rack are on 11-1/4" by 32" centers. For those of you who will be mounting the rack across your joists, this should make installation fairly straightforward, easy, and quick, assuming your joists are on standard 16" centers. If, like me, you are mounting the rack running with your joists, things get more challenging. And, when you are also mounting the rack over a counter whose relationship with the joists can only be described as "unfortunate", it gets slightly more complicated.
I solved my problem with two 34" long 3.5" wide oak planks, fastened into three joists, using 3" #12 brass wood screws, countersunk into the oak. The three joists were made necessary because of the relationship of the rack to the counter, and the fact that it was important to keep the rack mounting points between joist attachments to prevent the weight on the rack from being out on a "lever" with the last attachment point acting as a fulcrum. Without the need to line up favorably with the counter, a pair of 18" boards, attached at two joists would have been just fine. I mounted the rack offset, 4" from the back of the counter. I chose this offset to keep the pans out of my face when working at the counter, as I need all available workspace in my galley style kitchen.
Working on the ceiling is always a treat. I transferred the exact location of the back edge of my counter to the ceiling by clamping a board along the counter's curved edge, and using it as a reference rail. The actual transfer was done using a Bosch plumb laser Bosch Self-Leveling Laser Plumb Bob (GPL2) . To find the joists I used Zircon 60276 MultiScanner i700 OneStep Wood, Metal, and Live Wire Stud Sensor, however, there were some "mystery boards" in my ceiling that cast some doubt as to whether I was correctly identifying the joists, and I finally had to resort to using a fiber optic camera Ridgid 31123 SeeSnake Micro 9.5mm Inspection Camera to identify what was what. The "mystery boards" run back among some cabinets, and I'm still not sure why they were put there, but at least I was able to properly identify the joists. For placement of the first plank, measurements were made to a nearby wall, and the second plank was placed by measurements to the first, along with the use of the stud-finder and a square. I fabricated a small drilling template from some scrap aluminum I had on hand to insure consistent hole placement across both planks. Other tools used included a Makita circular saw Makita 5008MGA Magnesium 8-1/4-Inch Circular Saw , Skil 3400-12 10-Inch Table Saw Kit with Stand (both equipped with a Freud "fine" blade Freud TF1061 10-Inch 60-Tooth Thin Kerf Fine Cut Blade) and a Milwaukee Drill Milwaukee 2601-22 18-Volt Li-ion Compact Drill Kit . Also used were misc. drill bits, including a #12 countersink; a screwdriver, screwdriver bit, a 24" square, a 36" "story stick", a 36" steel rule, (2) 12" "rapid clamps" and an ancient Porter Cable router.
Once everything had been mounted to the ceiling and I had a good "test fit" trial with the rack in place, I pulled it all back down. I then "dressed up" the oak planks a bit using a router. Finally, I sanded and finished them, using a natural finish Minwax Natural Finish, 1 Qt. Once dry, it all went back up. While not an exact match, by any means, the naturally finished oak blends well with the wood and metal of the rack. The woods I found at my local "big box DIY" which might have been a closer match to the wood in the rack, did not offer the strength of the oak, and I find I like the resulting aesthetic, right down to the accent of the brass screw heads.
Although the particulars of my situation made this into a bigger installation task than I anticipated, that will certainly not be the case for everyone. I do wish J. K. Adams would wise up and offer both an 18" and 34" adapter board set - we aren't all going to be mounting across the joists. And please, no matter how tempted you may be to cheat, make the effort (or hire the effort) to be sure this thing is solidly fastened to your joists. Do not let anyone convince you that some gadget will let you use the sheet-rock. That patented miracle-anchor may let you attach a Volkswagen to your sheet-rock wall without a problem, but this is a ceiling, not a wall. Not only do you need to avoid the sickening sound of a hole being torn in your ceiling, and your expensive cookware crashing down on whatever is below, but you also need to consider the real risk of someone being injured. I have no doubt my Le Creuset Dutch Oven could seriously injure, perhaps even kill, when falling from a height. Especially if it squarely struck a small child on the head.
Overall, I would strongly recommend this rack. I have ordered more hooks for mine, and look forward to years of having my cookware properly stored, a nice contrast to the years of cursing and swearing, digging around in dark cabinets while crouched on the floor with a flashlight.
So, enjoy your new rack if you buy one, and Bon Appétit !
