Home and Kitchen Reviews

I crossed my fingers when I purchased this cart because of the mixed reviews. Worse case scenario, I'd just return it. I'm pleased to say that I am quite satisfied with the cart. I find it very sturdy (the bottom shelf holds up to 44 lbs!). In assembling it, I initially put the bottom shelf on upside down (the lip should be toward the floor). This mistake made the cart very unsteady, but as soon as I turned it right side up, everything came together like a glove. It's a handsome piece with lots of storage space. I keep my crock pot, rice cooker, and blender on the bottom shelf to clear counter space. Keeping these 'heavy' items on the bottom shelf and locking the whells also steadies the unit so that it doesn't move when using the sliding adjustable-height top shelf. I'd recommend it. Hope you found this review helpful.

I found this item to be very useful. Although I do not have a microwave sitting on the top shelf, I still find it very sturdy for holding other items. I did not have a problem putting it together even though I am not mechnically inclined.

I like the idea of being able to adjust the shelves to fit whatever size item you put on it.

I would recommend this cart to other people for their storage needs.

I have this one and the taller but thinner cart, one each on each side of my stove. They look great and have lots of storage racks. These carts are very sturdy and easy to put together. I am ordering extras to use at work as printer stands and one for the bathroom to storage towels and other stuff.I like the fact that the top is made out of wood, overall very good quality.

I received this recipe organizer as a gift from my Mother-in-law and I absolutely love it. The red leather cover is beautiful and modern. I've transferred all my recipes into this binder because it is so easy to use and the cards are protected from spills. I love it so much I'm purchasing it for my mother-in-law for her birthday. A perfect gift for anyone!

I chose this book for my brother-in-law who is still in college and has an interest in cooking. I liked it because it is relatively manly in appearance and would work with his macho image. He has only a handful of recipes thus far and therefore this book was the perfect size for him. I highly recommend it for someone who is just starting out with their recipes.

Fantastic product, but way overpriced in Europe. The company website lets you order online, but has separate websites for both USA and Europe. You can only order from USA website if you live in USA. We europeans are forced to pay highly inflated prices of more than 120% markup (i.e. more than double) that of the prices on US website, and if you search around to shop in Europe you will find prices much the same.

This company is controlling market prices and screwing us europeans with huge markups. It can get away with this because it is treating all european countries the same.

Please don't buy this product if being treated fairly matters to you. It's the only way to get them to listen.

Yes, this is still an improvement over box graters. However, it is not fabulous.

CONS:
1.Flimsy plastic construction. Hasn't broken yet, but it will.
2.When grating hard cheese the blade tries to separate from the handle unless you put your index finger in the small hole on the plastic portion of the handle just above the handgrip.

I would pass on this product and opt instead of all metal construction. I prefer book the Micro plane professional graters and the Cuisipro line.

I use this for grating brick cheese whenever I need a relatively small amount -- like cheese as a garnish, not cheese as an ingredient. For big jobs, I head for the food processor. Sometimes in a moment of insanity, I whip out a box grater. I think this is a lot safer than a box grater, but maybe not as fast.

I love it because it doesn't take up a lot of space and I've been able to successfully clean it in the dishwasher.

I know it's an inexpensive item, but when the labels wear off they become useless (well, I still use them based on memory and their relative sizes)

It's nice to have so many options and not only the standard ones. The labels come off very easily. I am not sure it's such a good idea in the end.
