Outlet Reviews

After much thought and debating spending top $$$ for German knives I opted to buy the Chicago Cutlery. For the price these are great! I always swipe them past the sharpening steel before I use them and I've never had a problem cutting anything.
I find them comfortable to hold and quite easy to use. My *only* complaint-which is the reason for only 4 stars-is that one knife has become very slightly stained and I don't know why. I always wash and dry them by hand, promptly.
I would definately buy from Chicago Cutlery again.

I should of owned one of these long ago. It really has a lot of vacuum power. I've owned it about eight months with out any problems. The only draw back is If you make your own bags from a roll it will not vacuum a cross seal only the way it comes off the roll.

My wife thinks this is the greatest gadget ever made. We gave our old one to her sister and bought another for us. It is totally automatic -- put the food in a bag, put the bag in the sealer, close the lid, and press a button. Seconds later, a vacuum sealed bag that goes right into the freezer. You have to be careful not to get grease in the end of the bag where you're sealing, or the seal might not be perfect and the bag will fill with air over time (good idea to check the bags in the freezer every few days until you get used to using this thing). The good news is that you can usually cut off the old seal, wipe the inside of the bag, and reseal it.

Some units come with a wine cork for vacuum sealing partial bottles of wine: this works quite well, too, but a VacuVin is simpler and faster (you don't have to plug anything in to vacuum out the air in a wine bottle).

This product I thought was a godsend. However, the mice built up a resistance, it seems, to the sound emmitted. You are able to hear the noise and although it's easy to ignore, it's easy to hear at night.

This has been the most effective and easiest method of pest control I've ever used. Just recently, my husband and I got one for his mother, who was having trouble with squirrels getting inside the kitchen ceiling. As soon as she plugged it in, the squirrels disappeared. It's been over a month now, and she hasn't detected any squirrel activity.

Really, if you feel poison is inhumane, or hate using traps, this is your best bet--a definite godsend for the critter-squeamish!

I took a...dull knife and in 1-2 min had it slicing paper with this sharpener. On my good knives 30 seconds to put on a really nice edge. I'm very pleased so far, and expect that this will be less wearing on my knives than using stones. I'll be using this regularly to put on a quick edge while cooking. Highly recommended.

If your good knives are getting dull this steel is the way to go. A few swipes every time you use the knife will bring the edge back. We have a set of chicago cutlery that has been rejuvinated with this steel.
