Best Baking Equipment for Kitchen

👤The torch was perfectly fine once it was filled with butane. Getting it filled with butane was frustrating. I bought a butane can from Target and thought it would be fine. The torch wouldn't fit the tip of the can. The bottom of the torch is not compatible with common butane refill cans because of its shape. I went to a hardware store and asked the attendant to put a different brand of butane in front of me to make sure I wasn't spending more money. It worked. I bought a brand that I want you to know what works. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against using butane, but I want you to have it filled with it before you use it. The torch works perfectly and I am not sure if that is the fault of the torch or the incompatible can.

👤Today's dab was possible because of it. Next day it came. It's a beast. It was bought to replace the one that broke and was heavily used before that.

👤It was difficult to figure out which bottles would work. I finally found out which ones were short nozzle and where to find the long nozzle refill and it is working. The Ronco canister was found in the tobacco section at Walmart.

👤I love my torch! I wanted to start small because I am afraid of flames. It was very easy to load with butane and the lock button makes it seem very safe. The flame is enough to burn over my artwork to pop bubbles, but not the whole thing. Highly recommended.

👤It does what it says it will do. It was a great choice for the price.

👤Customer service was great. They tracked me down and sent me a replacement for my bad review. This one worked well. Quality company that supports their products. I got a faulty 1 for the first time and they made it right. Don't buy a piece of junk. I filled it with Butane and waited 10 minutes. It was hard to light and it tried to light me on fire. As soon as you point the flame down, the torch goes right to your hand. It's not a real torch flame, it's a big lighter flame. I have used torches that have a more powerful flame.

👤This is the second one I have had since July. This is a waste of money and you should look elsewhere.

👤They did the job when I used them. The high intensity is good for torching steak, but the medium intensity is better for creme brulee. Having the fire set at a low setting puts out the fire. The flame always goes out within a minute when I try to torch the sugar. The medium fire burned some of the sugar while I was trying to get the edges. The low flame going out often made it hard to lock the flame. I was not sure if the flame was locked on or not. If you kept it on medium, it would be solved. If you see the flame and it won't go out, be careful because you are leaking propane into the air. I think if you know what you're doing, it's easy, but it was my first time and some of the propane leaked out of the torch when it was full. At least they were gone? I put it on a paper towel in case. If you just want to make dessert or torch a few things, I recommend this. It's a good thing.

👤I bought a scale to weigh my puppies. It's great so far. I put a plate on it and then put a puppy on it. It works like a charm. I would definitely recommend it. It's very nice looking. If you're buying it for the kitchen, it's great.

👤This scale works well for us. You can't beat the price. The scale helps achieve an accurate measurement if you cook and bake a lot. This scale is easy to use and accurate, it's convenient when a recipe calls for an ingredient in grams and you don't have the tools to measure. In our video, you can see it quickly turn on. The unit can be changed while the item is on the scale. Within seconds, it turns off. We've used this scale many times over the last few years and we still use the same batteries. The scale has small grips on it. It's a great price and scale.

👤The scale is terrible. You pay for what you get and I only paid $8. The weight reading is moving. I used a scale that was side by side and weighed 4 grams. The other scale gave exactly 4 while this one went back and forth from 3 to 5. I wish I had spent more money. I work in law enforcement and need more precise weights.

👤The scale is easy to use, pretty accurate, and sleek, but I had an issue with the actual read out. If you place a bowl or plate on top of the flat top, it will block the screen. You have to look under the curve of the bowl or place a thinner box on top of the bowl to see if you can push back the bowl. The scale would have been 5 stars, but the fact that you can't see the display without going through a mission is pretty annoying. It was the larger version that was sent free of charge after I gave it 3 stars, which negates the issue I mentioned above. The newer version of the one I was sent has the read out to the side which seems more practical. I had to raise my initial 3 stars to 4 for customer service.

👤I had a hard time figuring out how to rate this product. It is designed to weigh small amounts of food. It is well designed. That is all it does to deliver on its intended function. The zero function is coupled to the measuring function. When you put a dish on the scale then zero the display, the resulting value will include the weight of your finger pushing the button. The product doesn't measure the weight of food as advertised. The designer is not an engineer. I would recommend a different product. I will return this and find a better product. I will update this review with my findings when I do. I gave it two stars because. It looks nice.

👤Not sensitive to low weights. The scale is useless for measuring out items that are in the low single digits of grams. You can only work around it by putting something heavy on the scale, then putting the measuring paper on top of that, and then pouring the ingredient. The scale I bought from Amazon did not have this problem. The scale is not perfect, on the order of 10-20%. If you put a cup on the scale and measure a significant amount of ingredients, it can be tested easily. Remove the cup and put a different cup on the scale and pour in what should be 20 grams from the first cup. It will be different. The scale is trash. The last scale I bought was accurate to less than 1%.

👤The baking set for little aspiring bakers and chefs is quite cute. The quality is outstanding and your little one needs to start their baking/ cooking journey. It comes with its own carrying case, so you don't have to worry about losing anything. The company knocked it out of the park with their high quality measuring cups, spoons, and utensils. I highly recommend anyone who has a child who is curious or always wants to help in the kitchen to do so. It is a great gift and the price is great.

👤This set is adorable. Within the first few days, my daughter was able to bake cupcakes using almost everything in the set. The apron fit well and she didn't fall off her shoulders. If a kid and parent want to work together in the kitchen, it's definitely a good idea.

👤For Christmas, we got this for our daughter, she is 4, and she was very excited. It was better than I thought. The measuring spoons are amazing and the apron is very good quality. The quality of the cutting board and knives makes them feel safe for her to use on her own. We have already used it a lot.

👤Couldn't believe how good the quality was. The measuring cups were of the same quality as the ones I use every day. This is a great way to get kids excited about cooking. My niece is obsessed with this and I have this for her. She and her dad like to make a ritual of using cookie cutter for pancakes. Would recommend this to someone. This is better than the Easy Bake oven.

👤I really wanted to love this because it is cute and perfect for the kids, but the wisk has already fallen apart and the other pieces seem to be of poor quality. It is almost like this is meant for decoration and not actual use. Santa gave me this gift and I am really sad.

👤Just opened the box. Which was very quick. The latch broke when I tried to open the box. I don't recommend this product.

👤I love this set. My 5 year old loves baking. She can use it. Everything seems sturdy. Way better than I anticipated. You will not regret this purchase.

👤This set is adorable. I like it. It is a great gift for all ages. As an adult, I would love this as a small gift. Comes with a lot of things.

👤Our granddaughter could have been cut by the knives. She would not cut herself if we put them up.

👤The set is nice. The items can be used in Baking and Cooking. The smaller size is perfect for younger kids. I would use real oven mits instead of the thin and toy-like ones. The Apron is cute, but it is a bit small. Roast Chicken and French Fries are things kids wouldn't typically cook, but are included in the Cook Book. It is a nice set and would make a cute gift for kids interested in cooking.

👤This is the best gift for a kid who loves helping in the kitchen because I can't post any pictures. I ordered this for my son's 3rd birthday and he absolutely loves it. He puts his hat and apron on when he cooks, and we spend some time together. Do it if you are questioning getting this.

👤This set is best for young children. 3-4 year old would fit the apron. The items could be used as real items, but are more like plastic toys. We decided to return and find a larger container for my 7 year old because we could have kept and put in a different container.

👤These are substandard products according to others. After using 350 for making English muffins, both of mine have become useless. The last batches stuck badly, and the silicone appears to have been transferred to the high-end baking pans. Attached are photos. These mats were only used for a short time before they deteriorated and ruined a baking project.

👤Terrible. Terrible. Terrible. First time used. They smoked me out of the kitchen and ruined a bunch of cookies. Even at 350. Don't buy because there is a quality control problem.

👤The baking mats are great. The quality is excellent and the price is good. I use them for everything in the oven. You name it, it's from oven pizzas. I love that they help protect my baking sheets by helping food slide off the non stick surface. It is also very convenient to just wipe them clean or put them in the top shelf of the dishwasher. You can cut off 1/3 of the paper towel roll to use as a holder, and just roll up the mats and slip inside the ring for easy storage of the mats in a drawer. I highly recommend them. We use these mats almost daily and I have had them for almost a year. They look brand new. I have not had any issues with mats becoming worn or staining. I use them to cook most items at up to 450 degrees but have not had any issues with them so far. I drape them over my cups in the top rack of the dishwasher and then when dry roll them up and slip a napkin ring or rings cut from and empty paper towel roll into a drawer so they fit easily into a drawer. These things are fantastic and have paid for themselves many times over in the superior non stick surface, ease of clean up and the cost of parchment paper and or aluminum foil I used prior to discovering them.

👤I spoke with an Amazon customer service representative and was told that they would escalate the issue to have it addressed and possibly amend the product review. I am surprised that they didn't offer a refund on the product, but I think the most important thing is to see if they address the fire and safety issue at its root. There is an update on 11/11/18. One reviewer stated that these are not good for use above 400 degrees F. The mat was smoking when I opened the oven after putting it in the oven. This was the mat itself, no oils or anything applied to it. I changed my review to one star and will be requesting a refund from Amazon. This is a danger. I've been trying to reduce my carbon footprint so I was looking for an eco-friendly alternative to aluminum foil to line my baking sheets. The mats were the ticket. They fit perfectly on my baking trays. These are even better than aluminum foil because I don't have to use oil to make them non-stick! I can cook even better. I will recommend this to my friends.

👤The items were tightly packed in a clear box so they wouldn't fall apart. I was giving it as a gift and it was disappointing that it came in a storage box. It doesn't look like it was advertised. I agree with a review that the items look childish. I am giving it to a 6 year old who already bakes a lot. I wish it was a little more mature.

👤Our little baker will love this set. She likes the size and colors of the products. Mom loves the case and keeps them all together.

👤It looked more childish than I expected. It is not for a child under the age of 18. The rolling pin is similar to Play Dough.

👤Be careful! There are metal particles on the metal portion of this item. They will come off in food prep. Very poor made and poorly inspected. This is manufactured for food prep. Can you imagine preparing baby food with this?

👤I received a pastry blender. It has a little weight to it, but it's just right. And it is also made of steel. The handle has a firm grip. I am very happy with it. I am glad I didn't just buy one atBB&B that was 20.00 and pay tax and free shipping, it was a little over 1/2th the cost. It is almost the same. This one is a little heavier. I know it wasn't made in the USA, but the one fromBB&B was. The one I found was made in the USA and cost almost 35 dollars. All this will be finished last me. I like to make pies and apple turnover, but I am not a pastry chef. I don't think it would wear out if I used it daily. I will update this review if it ever gives me issues.

👤It is considerably smaller than the one I have had for the past 45 years. The grip is not as wide as my hand. When I blend, my hand sinks into the dough because the blades are shorter. You should compare the models before ordering.

👤The padded handle on the blender is appreciated by my old hands. When I bake several batches of dog treats and blend peanut butter into them, my hands start to ache because the handle is metal. This solved the problem. It works well.

👤I've had a pastry blender from Pampered Chef for 20 years and it's been a miserable POS. The tines were so thin that they were bent out of shape. I've been baking more. I'm glad I upgraded. The gorilla thingy is amazing. The tines are more than twice the thickness of my old one, so I knew I had made a good choice. I'm still happy after three batches of biscuits. Is that what it is? It's not heavy and cleans up easily in the dishwasher.

👤I really like this appliance. I have been making pie-crusts for decades, and this is the best blender I have ever used. It's also great for biscuits. The blades are strong and do not bend or get out of alignment, and the grip is perfect. Butter is cut beautifully in flour with this blender. The older one of this brand was lost when I moved, but I'm still hoping to find it one day. I have been lost without it so I ordered another one. It's a must for anyone who wants to become a pastry chef.

👤Although the blades are sharp, the handle is very small, and the worst part is that your hand ends up hitting the metal sides, because the handle turns on you while you are using it. It doesn't cut because of the turning handle. I am buying a different one and hoping for better luck.

👤I dropped it and it only dribbled a small flame from that point on. The company reached out to me after seeing my review. I wrote a review and didn't contact them. This is the first time this has happened and it was a pleasant surprise. They offered to replace it for free. I wish all Amazon companies had good customer service.

👤I was worried as I have never used one of these before. It was easy to fill. It's perfect for popping bubbles on my pours.

👤It stopped working in less than a month. It worked well at first, but after I refilled it was unreliable. Sometimes it does the low flame that it's set at, but other times it does a high flame and stays on until I click several times and it either turns off or slowly reduces. It doesn't seem safe to keep using. A lot of the reviews seem to be for a different torch. The one I have is black, not white.

👤You can find a tip for the fuel on this torch. It comes with a few and so do the cans of butane but out of the 25 or so I have including the ones supplied with it, I can't get a good connection for the filler valve. I read the instructions carefully, watched some videos, and bought different fuel cans, but they all waste a lot of fuel trying to fill this thing. I have other torches that don't have this issue. I've used a bunch of different fuel brands and they all work well on my other torches, but I can't get anything to fit securely over the valve on this one in ordwer to fill it without a bit of fuel escaping from the connection. Some are worse than others, but they all leak when filling this torch. It's hard to sense when it's full. It works very well once you get fuel into it. You can either lock it off or on for safety or continuous flame without holding thetrigger. A good flame pattern makes it very hot very quickly. It is possible to do light soldering but be careful around sensitive materials because it will instantly melt and burn delicate things and could easily catch nearby flammables ablaze. If it had a better fuel valve that worked with all standard fuel sources, it would get 5 stars.

👤I would return if I could, but now that I have filled it with butane, you can't ship it anymore. It is not possible to tell how much gas you have because there is no fill line. How can you avoid an over pressure explosion if you don't know how full it is? The flame is big and difficult to control. creme brlée is my specialty and I bought this for Thanksgiving. We were out of town and I couldn't bring my torch with me. The second star is because I successfully used the welding torch at home, which is what I use at Home Depot-type stores.

👤I purchased a similar product from a different brand and it had the same feature set, specification list, and warranty as the one I bought, but I was told the warranty could be increased to two years if I registered the purchase. The main product photo on Amazon clearly shows the life time warranty. The product's description stated a one year warranty. The product listing was misleading. The product's main photo still shows "lifetime warranty" despite the fact that the listing has been edited to show a three year warranty. Everyone that has purchased this item to date will be denied when they try to have their KULUNER thermometer serviced in the future, even though they may finally stop deceiving new customers by eliminating the term "lifetime warranty" from the main photo.

👤I am a chef. This is a very good instrument. The temperature and probe meet my requirements. It's waterproof. After falling into the soup, it can still be used. There is no damage. The reading on the large screen has no problem because it has the function of light and backlight.

👤I have never cooked in the last 20 years. I replaced my broken microwave oven with a nicer one and began to cook again to improve my meals. I don't use it for many different types of cooking but for what I need it for, it is perfect and I am so happy I bought it. It gives me what I need. I can hang it on the front of my fridge. I don't have a lot of places to put things in my small apartment.

👤The ad shows a lifetime warranty. If you register your order through their email, you will only get a 1 year warranty or a 2 year warranty. The seller responded to my earlier review. They sent me a new one and it's working well. They haven't changed their advertising of "lifetime warranty" or their 1 year warranty on included paperwork. I increased my rating from 1 to 3 because they reached out and sent me an additional thermometer.

👤The first couple days it worked well. The screen looked fogged from the inside after I washed it, which seemed weird due to the water resistance claim. I kept using it despite the fact that it did not do any harm at the time. It stayed on the inside for a long time after it was washed every time. The display is messed up and it's hard to read the temperature read out. I messaged the seller and got my replacement unit in 3 days.

👤I bought this to use on my Ninja Foodie. This is a big bright digital readout. It's easy to use and clean, and it fits in my hand. I use the waterproof feature for pressure cooking. It does a great job on cold food. The price and quality of this item are excellent.

👤This is a great instant read thermometer. I keep it near the stove because it's magnetic. It's quick. When I wanted to know how cold my freezer was, I could push the large button to hold the temperature. It's easy to read, unlike my old instant read thermometer, which required you to contort yourself to see the temperature. I highly recommend it.

👤The cooling rack is great. I use mine for fresh produce. There is plenty of room for all my produce, the color is beautiful, and it's easy to adjust. I want to buy another one to make my pantry bigger.

👤I have limited space and I like to bake cookies in places where I can't fit my cooling rack in. I had to try this one because it caught my eye. This really works well, I was not disappointed. The wire is very sturdy and the frame is very well made and has weight to it. I am 100% certain that the locks will not collapse in use, because of the smooth operation on extending. I'm pretty sure the weight of the metal has something to do with it. It cleans up perfectly in the dishwasher and is easy to store. I am very happy with the purchase and no cons.

👤The wires came out after just one use of the rack. What? This is a very dangerous hazard. One of the side screws came loose and can easily scratch counter tops. It isn't easy to open and close it. It takes some muscling and maneuvering to get it in place. It is easy to lose the pieces that hold the rack in the correct height. I wish it would have worked, but it seems like a failed product to me. I will return it.

👤The rack has so many uses that it may be the most flexible ever made. This cooling rack has an option of 3 settings and is designed to be used at the same time when you are on the holidays. The cooling rack has a collapsible design and is able to hold 3 tiers. It was great to bake like we did this weekend for our pudding party. It works well for everything from small items like cupcakes and muffins to large pies and cakes, and can hold the weight. The collapsible cooling rack is very space-saving and can be used as a drying stand three times the space. It comes with four tiers that stack on top of each other and have a non-stick coating. I like it. It's great to keep the mess out of sight and out of mind.

👤I found this cooling rack at the perfect time for the holiday. This baby is going to be put to the real test this week because Thanksgiving is this week. We are going to use it for pies and anything else we make, however I have already used it to cool a few dozen cookies. It has a lot of space with 4 full size racks. The space in between each rack can be adjusted. It is very easy to set up and take down, and folds up nicely to store away. This is a must have for a baker. I have considered using it as a drying rack because I am a crafter. I think it would work well. This is a great item to have on hand.

👤My first torch. Like it. What's not to like? Beware of user stupidity. I put the methane cartridge on without turning the gas dial off because I didn't charge it enough. I punched the button. No more eyebrows. I was wearing glasses and methane burns off fast. This wasn't the torch's fault, it was mine. It's a good torch for the price. The literature was complete and should be read first.

👤I edited my review because I have used the torch 6 times since I got it, and it is scting up. The setting is very low. I'm disappointed. Not a happy customer.

👤The instructions were not clear and for it to be a dangerous item, there should be better instructions. Returning.

👤The butane won't ignite even if I hold the button in place because the button has popped off and the butane isn't coming out of the end anymore.

👤I bought this torch to use in the kitchen. It does a good job and is very handy. I like the fact that you don't have to hold the lighter button and keep the flame on. I have used it to solder wire together and it would be an excellent tool for the hobbyist. It is easy to add more butane gas when it is low. It arrived on time and I'm very pleased with it. I would order again from this seller.

👤I like this item easy to use, but for some reason after filling it up, it goes crazy, and other than that, it's usable to torch something quick.

👤It is easy to refill and operate. This is a great option for melting cheese on crackers. It's great to melt the pizza's top. It's easy to store in the pantry. I ordered black. I don't know why I received the red version.

👤My new torch did it's job when I made creme brulee.
