Promising review: "It already has improved the time it takes me to filter out the thick, muddy fiber from my daily smoothies. It takes me about 10 minutes in contrast to the previous hour it took me with competitor filters." —poochie2100

Promising review: "Heavy duty with a sleek look on the counter. The five year supply of free spices is a wonderful bonus. I highly recommend this product." —Kindle Customer

Promising Review: "It's difficult to eat healthy while making time for work, leisure, and rest. Eating out a few nights a week gets expensive very fast. This little angel will put those worries behind. I was hesitant about purchasing this product. As the old saying goes, 'you get what you pay for.' This cooker will possibly save you hundreds of dollars throughout the year with quick, healthy, inexpensive dinners you can make. If you're single, this is the answer to all of your cooking woes." —Ricky

Promising review: "This is the most awesome kitchen gadget ever! I love it and would recommend it to everyone. I made fall-apart pot roast in two hours instead of the seven hours my Crock Pot used to take. Perfect rice and homemade yogurt. I got rid of two slow-cookers, a yogurt maker (that sucked), a rice cooker, and a stove top pressure cooker (that also sucked). Get one of these!" —ColoradoSunshine

Promising review: "Yummy! I have made six dinners from this book so far, and we have loved each one. The recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients can be found in any local market. My husband is asking for Mongolian beef dinner again. This is the best cookbook for the Instant Pot. Liam's recipes are really good." —Mia Rae

Promising review: "I love it. The measurements on top are helpful. It's very easy to use. I simply lay scale on a flat surface, add my bowl/plate, tare, and add my food. It allows you to change measurements unit as the item sits on the scale. I'm buying one for my mom when it's on sale again." —SheridaH

Promising review: "Greatest little kitchen helpers since sliced bread! While that might be a slight exaggeration, they really have become my favorite pot holders. Small enough to stick in your gadget drawer, but plenty large enough to use on your largest, heaviest pots and pans. Great for lids that have handles that get hot. I keep one on those lids during the whole time I'm cooking. You could also leave them on glass items used in the microwave. Very handy. And they are cute!" —Southern Gal

Promising review: "This product has, with little expense, helped reduce my number one craving for my favorite simple carb, PASTA. Who knew I liked zucchini so much. The Veggetti is a simple, well constructed product for what it was made for. When I prepare a zucchini or squash, I only need to trim the very tip off the end. I leave the stem on unless its very long because the stem provides a sturdy place for the end cap. Very minimal waste this way." —JLA

Aside from seeds, you'll also get five biodegradable pots, five peat discs, five plant markers, and instructions.
Promising review: "I have no experience gardening whatsoever, and was actually worried that I wouldn't be able to grow any of the seeds. I always joke that I have a black thumb. My thumb turned green when I found this kit. It has easy to follow directions and all the supplies I needed. Wonderful kit for others that are interested in gardening, but can't keep a house plant alive." —Kiyoko

Promising review: "We love it...I mean love love love it!! It is non-stick without the toxic chemicals found in teflon, ceramic, etc. and we do not have to baby it to take care of it — WIN WIN!! In order to get a stainless pan to be non-stick you must use it CORRECTLY though, so don't review this pan whining that everything sticks to it when you didn't educate yourself how to use it properly.
Heat the pan for 2-4 minutes over medium to high heat (it varies upon your specific stove, burner size, and speed, etc.), you can drop a few drops of water into the pan to test that it is heated up properly. The water should GLIDE across the pan like an ice skater on ice. If the water glides, then you are good to go! Add a bit of oil, then your food, and it should be non-stick." —WiseCrew

Promising Review: "I use this with meat I've cooked with my sous vide cooker. It's not like cooking on the grill but it gives a subtle smoked flavor and if it's cold outside you don't have to go out and fire up the grill. I use charcoal and it would simply waste the charcoal just to smoke the meat." —Bill Berry

Promising review: "It creates a great, flavorful and tender piece of meat. I was in Whole Foods about a year or so ago and ordered hanger steak. It's a great, flavorful and tender piece of meat. The clerk asked if I wanted him to hit it with his tenderizer since I was going to marinate it so I agreed. It was fantastic! I've had it on my list to order for months and finally did, used it on skirt steak. Again, it was fantastic. This is a great tool that does not pulverize your meats and cleans up easily in the dishwasher. It also stores well in my kitchen drawers. Well worth it if you want tender meat that soaks up added flavors." —Ron S.

Promising review: "Love this idea. It's fast, simple, and easy to use. Also easy to clean as well. I have no trouble using it with large eggs. I think the trick is to just be gentle and not forceful. This is definitely better than the wire holder I have been using!" —meissler

Promising review: "My husband and I love this little thing! We use it almost daily for chopping onions, peppers, nuts, mushrooms, etc. We make a lot of stir fry dishes and stews, so it is very convenient and easy to clean. Unlike other choppers we have tried, this one works great! When cleaning, be careful, the blades are very sharp, so just take care when taking it apart. Love this thing!" —Lynda Bullerwell

Trust me, draining and marinading tofu makes alllll the difference.
Promising review: "Tofu press! Where have you been all my life (or at least as long as I've been making tofu). No more soggy, wasted paper towels and stacks of books, cans, or whatever you have lying around. I prop the press up in a Tupperware bowl and the press goes to town. Cranking the screws every few minutes, it's not very long until I can slice up my firm tofu and put it into hot oil where it crisps up quite nicely. It's night and day between the crumbly mess that would previously result from my forays into tofu-frying, and my S.O. definitely appreciates the taste and texture difference between then and now." —K

This nifty friend is a solid spoon, slotted spoon, spatula, turner, and a cutting tool.
Promising review: "Give it a cap and a costume, this is the only thing I need in the kitchen! I am often looking for tools that can replace the other 30 I have collected in my kitchen. I have used this to flip grilled cheese, stir red beans and rice, strain brussel sprouts, and taste sauce. I use the flat edge to cut onions that were too large once in the pot and scrape the bottom of the pan. The uni-tool feels nice in my hand, has held up fine in multiple dishwashings, and has allowed me to toss a few kitchen tools that have become obsolete." —Hiawhatha
