Promising review: "I replaced my old scale, which I had for years, with this sleek little black glass scale by Escali. It's so slim, I can keep it tucked away behind my microwave, in easy reach in the kitchen. I find I use it a lot more often if I don't have to rummage in a drawer for it, and it is already making a difference in my cooking skills." —Florence E

Promising review: "I purchased a Vitamix (after hearing about this brand of blender for years) when my old blender finally died. What I really appreciate about my new Vitamix is that it is easy to scrape or tamp during use, it is not too loud while running, and it is easy to clean (both manually and by running the blender half-filled with warm water and a drop of dishwashing soap)." —Candykins

I also love how hot the coffee stays even once the machine has turned off. It's simple to use and I actually enjoy the morning ritual of making coffee with it. 10/10 would recommend." —Lorelei R

Promising review: "Use it almost daily. The preheat time is about 5 minutes compared to 20 minutes for our oven. Toast, bake pies, brownies, muffins; roasting, air frying..." —Barbara S

Promising review: "My husband is gluten-, dairy- and egg free. We spend $8/$9 on a store-bought tiny loaf of mediocre bread.

A few tweaks to the recipe and we've been making a loaf a week all month and even sharing with fellow gluten free friends." — the Cairns family in NY

Promising review: "These are fabulous measuring cups! Heavy, sturdy, long handled, easy to use and stack well. The only con is that they are somewhat pricey. But I won't have to ever buy measuring cups again. This is a buy-it-for-life purchase." —Rebecca R 

Promising review: "This is a great ice cream maker. The ice creams I've made (both custard and non-custard based) have been delicious. It isn't the quietest machine, but it makes ice cream more quickly than I anticipated and is fun, too. We just make our own - and everything tastes even better." —Sara 

Promising review: "I've been using this milk frother exclusively for the hot froth function, and I'm very impressed! It consistently produces incredibly creamy and rich froth, making my lattes and hot chocolates feel café-quality. The milk is not only frothy but also heated to the perfect temperature, staying nice and hot without scalding." —HYMC

Promising review: "I like this kettle a lot — water comes to a boil quickly because of it's broad, flat bottom, cleaning inside it will be easy because it's so accessible and the kettle is stainless through and through, it whistles well and the mechanism is not complicated so I think it'll last a while." —Ann H
