Rada Cutlery Super Parer Knife, Made in USA, Dishwasher Safe Black Handle (W227) Review

Rada Cutlery Super Parer Knife, Made in USA, Dishwasher Safe Black Handle (W227)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been needing a new paring knife and researched the reviews of several knives. I can't be more pleased with the quality of this knife. It is everything others have said: well balanced, super sharp, holds its edge. I also have to say that the black handled version is definitely the one to choose. I think it is the newer version and is an alternative to the brushed silver handle. Most reviewers criticized that handle for tarnishing. This handle does not have that problem, is solid (not plastic), and has a good texture for a secure grip. I would still not put it in the dishwasher - but that is just to help protect the blade. My only complaint is regarding the size. It is a 'super parer' which means it is a little larger than a normal parer. Its longer blade makes it awkward to use as a parer but it is too short to be a full function utility knife. My recommendation would be to buy the regular parer and then a second knife for the specific other tasks you have. These knives offer great value for the money so don't bother trying to get one knife for two tasks.

The Super Parer has the biggest handle and longest blade of all the Rada paring knives. It works great for dicing onions, cutting potatoes and red cabbage or slicing corn off the cob. It's also one of our favorites for boning chicken breasts. Blade 4 3/8 inches, overall 8 3/8 inches. Rada cutlery is made of surgical quality, high carbon stainless steel. Hollow-ground blades ensure a precision concave surface for maximum edge retention and sharpness. The black stainless steel resin handle is specifically designed to withstand the high temperatures and harsh detergent of the dishwasher. Like all Rada Cutlery, this item carries a lifetime manufacturer guarantee against defects.

Bread Box / Toast Jar Tuscany Fruits Review

Bread Box / Toast Jar Tuscany Fruits

I purchased this item because I needed a bread box and the tuscany fruits design matches the rest of my kitchen decor. Even though this particular style is much smaller than what I originally wanted, it is such a pretty jar. I think of it more as a jar than a bread box. It also will not hold the longer type bread if you want to keep the bread in its original wrapping. But it's such a pretty jar and it looks very nice sitting on my counter by the sink. It is also more money than what I had wanted to pay but I still love it!

Very British and I use them for cookies which we call biscuits in the UK. They are for crackers so I might get another. There are little round capsules that you wet in the lid for keeping moisture out, pretty good idea.

Beautifully housed in matte steel, this 3-1/2-liter biscuit barrel provides an ideal place to store crackers, cookies, biscuits, and more. The unit features a built-in moisture-absorbing capsule, which helps keep food crisp and fresh over a long period of time. Briefly dry the capsule in a hot oven every now and then for peak performance; a handy reminder can be set to indicate how long it's been since the last drying. For added convenience, the container's matte-black easy-to-remove lid supplies an airtight seal, and its metal-wire loop handle makes it easy to transport snacks from the kitchen to the back deck or to a friend's house for game night. The biscuit barrel measures 6-3/5 by 6-3/5 by 7-4/5 inches.

This bread box is the 3rd one I have purchased in 5 years. The first 2 were hard to keep clean and were oversized in height. When you have a lot of bread to store, there is always toast on the menu. Where there is toast, there is butter. This low-profile brushed chrome box holds 2 full sized loaves of bread and leaves NO FINGERPRINTS like some of the stainless steel or glass front boxes. I also found this to be the most aesthetically appealing bread box since it coordinated with my toaster and coffee maker. So far, my bread likes its new home!

As sleek, reflective, and streamlined as any diner or roadster from the '50s, this bread box is a real show-stopper. While it has roots in the nostalgic past, it also has fashion forward style, making it a natural in both retro and thoroughly modern kitchens.

I have always wanted a breadbox ever since we had a cabin. My husband's grandmother had a cool old fashioned one we used when we stayed there. At home - sometimes I would keep bread in a cupboard, on the counter, or in the fridge - which I heard is not the place to keep bread. So, I looked and looked for a cool breadbox and found this one and I love it! It is just the right size. Even though it doesn't look like the one at our old lake cabin - every time I open it - it brings back memories - good memories - plus, it keeps the bread fresh. I like the way it looks on our counter, too.

I've tried bamboo and stainless steel bread boxes before. This one is by far the best. It can store 1-2 one-pound artisan bread depending on shape. Took out one star because the concealed magnets can only loosely close the bag. Overall a good product.

High quality Designer Bread Bag. Good bread deserves to be stored and served in the best, most appealing way. This bread bag is made of high-quality, certified organic Duck cotton insulated with felt. In addition to storing bread, it also folds down to become an eye-catching, imaginative bread basket that can vary in size. The concealed magnets close the bag to turn it into an elegant "breadbox". Just shut the edges of the bag on the magnets to keep bread fresh and crisp for a long time.

Average Reviews:

This breadbox is both stylish, modern and elegant. The lid raises smoothly with the feeling that it is weighted (since it's constructed of sturdy stainless steel) and the opaque section of the curved lid adds even more to its good looks. The handle is modern and sleek and is attached to the stainless lower section of the lid below the opaque section. It also has enough capacity to hold several items without crowding and its size is not at all unwieldy like most breadboxes. It has 4 very small rubber feet on the botton so it will not scratch surfaces and the weight is perfect I had been looking a very long time for a stylish breadbox and had failed until now. I couldn't have been happier at finding it. I have received several compliments and those people have shown interest in buying one also. I first saw this item when on vacation in Ireland and tried to obtain it on the WMF website when I returned home. I had difficulty navigating the website as it was in German so I entered "stainless steel breadbox" on Google and was directed to Amazon.com directly to the product I was searching for!

I bought this years ago in San Francisco while shopping with my nephew who now lives in Japan. He thought I was a little nuts because I live in the DC area and that meant I'd have to fit this into my already bursting suitcase to bring it home. Because it was a price I couldn't resist, I took the plunge and figured that I'd fill the bin with clothes and wrap it inside other garments. It worked well and after all these years, I still love the Brabantia bread bin that sits in its regal position atop the refrigerator. Not wanting to waste a fraction of space, I have boxes of cereal and aluminum foil perching on top of the flat bin, all displayed for easy access. The rolling lid moves very smoothly and is easy to operate up and down, exposing the breads (and crackers) housed in the unit. I must admit that I sometimes forget to close the door if I have no fresh bread in the bin, but it looks nice even in opened position. It's a cinch to clean this and unlike us mortals, it doesn't seem to age. Should something happen to destroy this storage, I will likely replace it with the same.

Designed to keep bread, dinner rolls, and other baked goods fresh longer, this sleek-looking bread bin features an interior base with a knobbly pattern for enhanced ventilation. The unit offers a nice alternative to bagging bread for storage in the refrigerator or freezer, and its uniquely designed lid opens silently with just a light touch thanks to its low-noise Touch Bin storage system. In addition, the bin supplies a generous interior that can accommodate two large loaves of bread and more, yet it also provides space-efficient design details. For example, the unit's flat top can be used to store canisters or other items, and its lid doesn't take up any more room when it's opened or closed. Made of corrosion-resistant materials, the bin cleans up easily and will provide years of long-lasting high-quality performance. The bread bin measures 18-2/7 by 10-5/6 by 7 inches.

I have a very small kitchen with minimal counter top space. I had recently purchased a red toaster and was looking for a red bread box to match. Most bread boxes open outward which means it takes more space. but lo and behold at Amazon.com I saw this bright red bread box that has a roll back feature. I ordered it and it is such a clutter cure for all the bags of bread, rolls, muffins, etc. that made my tiny counter top look messy. I rate it a 5 star product especially since the price was very reasonable.

I ordered this bread bin because I bake my own bread and because I thought it would be like the one my uncle has in Europe/Suisse. I was truly very disappointed. It's so light weight that when you open it, it slides across the counter. I'm thinking--how is it going to keep my bread fresh? It looks like my uncle's--his is white.But other than the color, there is no comparison. I 'll figure out something to do with it. But not to keep bread or bakery goods in it. It is not worth 40 dollars that's for sure!

Lipper International Bamboo Rolltop Bread Box Review

Lipper International Bamboo Rolltop Bread Box
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The box is pleasant to the eye but the way the rolltop bamboo slats are secured is weak. There needs to be material that covers the rolltop bamboo from the inside that is stronger and secured better so the slats are secured for consistant opening and closing. The glued material weakens and after awhile separates from the rolltop slats thereby causing slats spacing to widen or angulat so as to make opening and closing difficult.
