This microwave is fine. Preset buttons appear to be off. Not time for Potatoes, much time for Beverage. Haven't tried the Popcorn setting. surprise was the buttons. These do not appear to be touch sensitive but a actual buttons behind the plastic. Could not get the microwave to work 'till I spotted you actually must press the buttons harder than on my built-in Micro. All in all, for the cost, they are pleased with this microwave

This works well for the cost point. It is not a powerhouse & does not have the 30 second fast add button that I love but it does work & fits my current budget

I love my new Oster Mini food chopper! The reason for a four star rating: Use caution if blending liquids as they have a tendency to foam up and flow out under the blade/whisk and in to the motor housing. This happened to me. After letting it dry out for a few days, it is working fine. And the hot chocolate was delicious, although I will use a bigger blender next time! So be cautious! This might happen with any food processor, huge or tiny. This is a pleasure to make use of! Chop an onion in seconds, make bread crumbs instantly, lots of other makes use of. I recommend it.

The oster FPSTMC3321 3-CUP Mini Chopper with Whisk,Black  This cheap,well made chopper does a nice job in the kitchen when used as instructed in the users manual.
I have been using this chopper for over a year and can find fault of my own doing; the removable cutting blade is "SHARP",use caution when cleaning!
Negitive reviews are expressed from unrealistic expections of a small chopper. This Oster chopper does a satisfactory job that it was designed for.
Cheap, small footprint, efficent,great looking.Buy it,You will be pleased

Not the best but lovely for the cost, this is the 2nd of these I bought. I use it very hard and it last about a year. The cup must even be in place right or it won't start. in the event you run it very long it will over heats and shuts off, But like I said I use it harder than what it was designed for, so I cannot complain

Brought to you by the #1 Blender brand. A blender that is anything but basic.Your life is not basic. Your blender should not be either. With this Oster blender you don't must sacrifice quality for simplicity. The giant capacity, 6-cup, BPA-free plastic jar is lightweight, dishwasher safe and break resistant. The stainless steel (ice crusher) blade does that so you get smooth frozen drinks every time. And ten speeds and 450 watts give you the power to perform for every usage occasion from frozen drinks to dips, from sauces to smoothies, from soup to nuts. Like most Oster Blenders, it is made in North The united states and backed by the superior quality of All Metal Drive. Because the pieces that connect are metal  { in lieu of plastic }, you receive a more long lasting and longer-lasting blender that will function flawlessly, party after party, year after year. The competition cannot compare. No matter the occasion, party for 15 or smoothie for, blending is better with an Oster blender

1 -                     

I love my blender! make smoothies everyday & it works ideal, have not had a controversy with it. The only things I would say are not as great are the lid, which is not hard plastic, is softer, like it is meant to fit the lid tremendous tightly, it does fit but sometime I am afraid that it won't hold the clear plastic lid, since you don't feel it snap there & it  fell inside the jar while it was mixing. Another thing is the way the jar attaches to the motor, it doesn't snap it in place either so you kind of must hold it in place. I do know is not going to fly out of place, because I left it unattended for a few second, but I wish it had that feature.
- Other than that is great for soups, crushing ice for margaritas & mixing fruits for smoothies without having to chop them in small pieces.


2 -                    

This brand goes back to my grandmother, "I am the grandmother now". As this is all plastic on the outside I am not sure of it lasting as long as her's did, but you get what you pay for. I use mine to grind up veggie for a morning drink. It does the job well. Not sure how long the plastic will hold up but the motor seam to be fine. I think the motor will out last the remainder of it. Lid is hard to put on as it fits so tight .


3 -                    

I have used the blender over the last months and I am satisfied with it. It blends everything nicely even ice making it ideal for smoothies. I have also blended soups with it and it turned out great .

Bunn Coffee Makers are high quality coffee makers, & usually needs to spend money to get this type of quality. However, there's a few costs you ought to be aware of before you buy a Bunn Coffee Maker. I am not saying that it may not be worth it to you, but you may as well know all of the costs before purchasing.



They both must do with how Bunn delivers such a speedy pot - three minutes as against 4-8 minutes of other makers. The first way they do it is to have what amounts to sets of water tanks: you fill, & the other is preheated. The preheated water tank is delivered to the spray head, & because it is preheated, it doesn't need any time to heat it up. The issue is that it is preheated 24/7, & that can be pricey. I am guessing they use a 40 watt heater. If it takes 8-12 cents per day in energy costs, you are taking a look at $20-$40 per year. You can, after you are done brewing for the day, shut off the "vacation switch" which is the switch to the tank heater, & this will save the cost & energy, but in case you forget to turn it back on at least 15 minutes ahead of when you need it, you are taking a look at a 15 minute wait for the tank to reheat before you can brew. You can also use a timer to limit the time of day the unit stays preheated, but that is an additional cost & timers use energy to run all day

Furthermore, in case you are having guests, in case you brew a pot of caffinated, followed by a pot of decaf, you may need to wait 15 minutes between pots. The Bunn commercial brewers keep preheated tanks, so this is not a controversy for them. But the consumer models keep tank preheated.


Note that they work on gravity: the water you put in pushes the preheated water out. A number of the preheated water will evaporate, so you need to put in more water than you need out.

The second thing they do to receive a fast brew is to increase the amount of water that pours in to the filter basket, far greater than other coffee makers. The amount of water would collapse other filters, but because these filters are taller & sturdier, they stand up. But that means you are stuck with their filters, which, in case you don't have a supply nearby, & few stores carryover them, means paying for the filters and shipping.

Bunn builds coffee makers to last, unlike other coffee makers that will wear out after a year or. Virtually all programmable models appear to only last a year or. So by purchasing this brand, you'll save money on coffee makers, to partly make up for the additional energy & filter costs.

You'll must pick whether the additional energy & filter costs "which can be handled, but might be troublesome" are worth saving the cost of buying a new machine every couple of years.

Next, the carbon footprint of a machine that consistently wastes energy is "but not all" counterbalanced by the fact that it is made in The united states , & does not need shipping halfway around the globe like some of the better brands (UPDATE: it WAS made in The united states, now it is made in China, so this benefit does not apply). Additionally, these coffee makers will basically outlast 5x other coffee makers, & that is plenty of plastic you save buy purchasing something only one time.  

Finally, the quality of coffee from a flat bottom filter is usually not as high as that you can get from a cone filter, though the differences will be subtle, and in the event you are used to the flavor of a flat bottom filter, then you may never care. This brand is thought about the best of the flat bottom makers, so there may not be as much of a difference as there's for other brands.

As for the heated base keeping your coffee hot, it is also *ruining* the flavor from  the first minute. Any actual coffee geek will immediately take the pot off the heater and pour it in to a thermal carafe or thermos or will order a model with a thermal carafe to start with. Ideally, there is no heated base at all. So people complaining that it doesn't keep the coffee hot ought to invest in a thermal carafe or buy a model that comes with.

In summary, the design of these coffee makers is suited to the standard donut shop, where they are brewing coffee around the clock and it is worth it to them to keep additional tanks of water heated so that they can shave 1-3 minutes off the brew time in the work of their peak purchasing periods. Whether it is worth it for a consumer who makes or pots of coffee in the morning to do something like this is something only you can answer for yourself. They are excellent coffee makers: well built and they make lovely coffee. But they cost a lot in terms of energy and filters, though partly balanced by the reduction in number of coffee makers you'll buy over the life of this product and the local nature of the product that reduces the energy necessary to ship them. It is thing to have a high cost, but to have the high energy waste these coffee makers will generate for most consumers is something everyone ought to think about.

It was that time again; time to search for our next coffee maker. Being worn out of replacing the coffee maker every 6 months they set out to look closer at build quality & read more reviews this time. They bought other coffee makers by a company that is been around forever, Mr. Something. Lovely looking, fancy green LED dial display with a timer, 12 cups, programmable, two hour auto shut off etc. for around $40-$50. Those machines only lasted around 6-7 months.

I always wanted a Bunn but was hesitant spending $100+ for a coffee maker again. Actually, I don't recall seeing a BUNN for around $100 the last time I shopped. It is not that spending $100+ was something new for me; I bought other machines over $100 before but was also disappointed.

This coffee maker purchasing was beginning to be a regular thing for us so the line of thought was purchase an cheap & replace it. So that is what they did but its costly doing that . Buy a brand spanking new machine in Jan. then June then again around Christmas time, that is $150 right there! I keep in mind thinking the last time; they ought to buy so when it breaks they have a backup.

So anyway, they have the BUNN NHBX. The experience setting this machine up was
unlike any other coffee machine historically. I actually had to follow directions, five simple steps but IMPORTANT STEPS. It is not like you plug this machine in & go, three minutes later - drink coffee. It does require some preliminary setup, about 20-30 minutes from opening the box. Bunn includes a rapid setup guide in addition to a pleasant manual & a deliming tool. Adding three pots of water to the machine appeared odd at first not fully understanding the hot water reservoir design.

This machine makes the best tasting pot of coffee of all the machines I owned historically. It is also the hottest pot! The hotter plate seems unnecessary. This machine made coffee as rapid as two min 35 secs up to three mins.
