I thought the four 4.5 inch springform pans would be equivalent to one 9.0 inch springform pan. After all, the areas are equal, i.e. 4 * 2.25 * 2.25 * pi == 4.5 * 4.5 * pi. I thought I could use the recipe for a 9-inch cheesecake and have 4 4.5-inch cheesecakes that tasted the same but were a more convenient size for giving as gifts.

However, while the areas are the same, the volumes are not. The pans are not deep enough. While a 9-inch springform pan is 3 inches deep, these 4.5-inch springform pans are 1.5 inches deep. Therefore, if you use the recipe for a 9 inch cheese cake, you have a lot of batter left over. If you half the recipe, you produce baked goods that taste something like cheesecake but not as dense or as moist or as rich.

I was very disappointed in these pans. They may be good for something, but I don't know what. They are well-made, so I won't throw them away, but right now I feel like they were a waste of money.

The springform pans are as I expected form Kaiser products but the stencils are "cheesy", being made from thin cardboard or plastic. These stencils will not last long. Having chosen Kaiser because they had stencils with the pans was a waste of money. Choose cheaper set and make your own stencils.

consider the price, it is inexpensive, so far, I used it a couple of times, it's doing ok.

I am absolutely DELIGHTED with this BEAUTIFUL recipe box from Mountain Woods and highly recommend his work to all. The recipe box is WELL CONSTRUCTED of NATURAL WOOD with a ROLL-TOP cover which closes easily. This man's work is SIMPLY THE BEST. Buy ONE as a gift for EVERYONE IN YOUR FAMILY.

I order a 4x6 and a3x5 receipe file box. They came packed well and in good shape. Shipping time was fine considering the Christmas rush. Workmanship as very nice. Overall I am very pleased with the product.

It's great to have a timer on this grill. Works great. There are 3 negatives about this grill. Too bad the hinge doesn't allow for thick sandwiches & the timer could be louder. The other thing is that the plates do not fit in flush with the grill. There is some play in there. I would not buy another one for these reasons. May not matter to you but it does to me.

Sorry......

Every requirement that I needed for a grill comes to pass with this one. The removable plates are easy to take in and out and clean up is a snap. I like this grill so much that I recommended it too my mom. She also feels it is a terrific buy.

This indoor grill is really great. When you get ready to use it just turn the timer dial to 5 minutes to pre heat & then your ready to GRill the many types of foods you like. easy to clean. ED Bartolini

Bought the primary and then two remote transmitter thermometers. Was really pleased with the main receiver and its ability to monitor the highs and lows at the primary and then at the two additional remotes. Then after about two months, the display kept fading and fading, and even with new batteries, the display will come up for a few seconds and fade entirely. Am very disappointed, will now start the task of contacting the company or Amazon to see what kind of replacement I can get, although once bitten by a product, I generally do not return to it.

I've had the base & one remote sensor for four months. Temperature is accurate and I haven't had to replace the batteries yet. The large display is easy to read.

It's nice to know the outside temperature before getting up & dressed.

The flaw: The tenths of a degree position on the base unit's local temperature is faulty. That wasn't worth the trouble to return & replace, but it's a sign of sloppy quality control.

Everyone else seems happy with this thing, but I have been very dissappointed. No matter how I scour and wash the inside of this urn, I am always left with a gritty, oily deposit on the bottom. When I refill the urn with water and heat it (I use it only for hot water, not coffee), I get an oily film on the water. It is unuseable and I will have to replace it. For what it's worth, I do not get these deposits or oily surface on the same tap water when boiled in a regular kettle. Avoid this product!

i was very happy whith my coffee pot it was just the way iwanted it thanks

I was very pleased with this purchase. It came very quickly, a couple days later.

This pressure Cooker is not high quality Product. I have experienced water Leaks while using it, which creates ugly stains all over the Stove.

good for the price, but it is not so easy to make out the "right" rice comapared with my former ones. Anyway, it's good!

I'm used to cooking slowly, and waiting forever to get my food... Now I don't know what to do with all the extra time! I am going to buy another one so that I can cook a side dish quickly as well.

Hoover should not have discontinued the original cleaing solutions that worked with this machine. I way preferred the smell of the original ones. I use it mostly on wood floors, so the convenience factor was not an issue for me.

It's ok. It's nice that it can switch from hard wood to tile. I just used this product for the first time since I finally finished using the bottle of Old English floor cleaner that came with the machine. I cleaned the kitchen floor first and it seemed to do all right. I did miss the clean scent that the Old English cleaner had. Next I cleaned the linoleum in the bathroom. It didn't seem to get the floor as clean as the Lysol cleaner. It didn't scrub the hairspray residue off the floor like the other cleaner does. And again, I missed the clean smell from the Lysol. The smell of this cleaning fluid borderline stinks. I don't know why Hoover had to mess up a good thing but I wish they wouldn't take the Old English cleaning fluid off the market. If I have to choose between cleaning ability and good scent or a fluid that is versatile but stinks I would choose the first one.
