KitchenAid Porcelain Enamel on Steel Curling Teakettles Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought the smaller version of this tea kettle, the 1.5 quart. It's a pretty red color (darker than it appears in the picture) and I love it's sleek design that seems almost art-deco or maybe mid-century modern. It looks stylish sitting on top of my stove. And that's good, since I always keep it out since I drink so much tea. And nothing seems quite as homey as a kettle on the stove, as far as I'm concerned. However, that is where the love affair ends. My kettle is completely non-whistling. That means I have to stand in front of the stove to make sure I'm there to turn off the heat when the water boils. This is inconvenient in the mornings when I am in a rush and trying to do several things at once. Also, the box clearly declares "strong, loud whistle". No, absolute silence for mine. My other issue with the kettle is that it pours sloppy. This leaves me with a steaming hot puddle to wipe up on my counter most mornings. Another issue is that there should be some kind of button release or something for the lid. It's stiff and sticks, so you have to really tug to pull it off. This means that a lot of times when it comes to refilling, I end up smashing my fingers on the underside of the handle. Yeah, I love it's looks, but I'm going to need to find another tea kettle that actually does what it promises.

HIC Harold Import Eggsact Egg Timer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this egg timer for years and loved it. It took away the worry about getting the eggs hard-boiled correctly: not still-sticky soft nor overdone with the green ring (which doesn't hurt anything but looks suspect!) So now that my daughters are making their own deviled eggs to take to family dinners and potlucks, I went looking for this same timer online. The poor review by another owner prompted me to share my own experience. Keep the instruction card so you'll remember to start the eggs and timer together in warm water, not boil them but bring them just under a full boil, and then when the timer turns purple, cool them immediately in cold water. It's worked for me every time, and that's been many times!

Hard boiling eggs are easy. Knowing when they are cooked to a desired hardness is not. Until now. With the eggs act egg timer you'll know, every time, where your eggs are, in the cooking process. Simply add the eggs act egg timer in with your eggs and boil as you normally would. There is an easy to read scale within the egg shaped timer. During the course of boiling the timer changes colors, from red to purple, starting from the outside edge and moving to the center. When the color change reaches your desired spot on the scale the eggs are cooked accordingly. Soft, medium or hard. Perfect eggs-the way you like them-every time.
