I ordered this unit for work, so I wouldn't have to keep buying soft drinks from the vending machine. It does work in that capacity, but there are some annoyances with it, and some limitations.
First I'll start off with the positives. It's lightweight, and it's really attractive. It also does cool things pretty well. I can't comment on warming things up, because I haven't tried it.
The negative part is it is quite large for what it can hold. And more than that, the insides don't hold temperature very well at all after you power it down. It warms up way too fast. Also, unlike a compressor based refrigeration unit, this thing is on all the time. Lastly, you are only supposed to run this for 48 hours consecutively, after which time you need to power if off for one hour. This is not stated in the description, but is an annoyance.
So, overall, it's not bad, because it does keep things quite cold, and you can put most things in it (2 liter bottles you have slant a little). Particularly at work, it can save you money, and give you a much better selection than the vending machine since you can bring in whatever you want. You will also get comments on how beautiful it is; it's that attractive. Just be aware of its imperfections so you won't be disappointed.

Add to the festive atmosphere of poker night, football-viewing parties, or birthday celebrations with this unique mini fridge--or place it in a dorm room or apartment for everyday use. The unit comes shaped like a red Coca-Cola can, complete with a white Coca-Cola trademark up the side and a pull-tab top. Open the door on the side for easy access to stored contents. With its 10-liter capacity, the appliance can hold up to eight 12-ounce cans of soda or up to two 2-liter bottles of any favorite beverage. Best of all, it cools up to 40 degrees F below the ambient temperature and can heat up to 149 degrees F--great for keeping beverages cold or food warm. Other highlights include a self-locking recessed door handle and a removable shelf that slides out to make room for tall items. Ideal for at home, in the car, or on a boat, the can-shaped mini fridge measures 11 by 11 by 17-4/5 inches and comes with a 12-volt adapter and a 120-volt home adapter.

New Hamilton Beach Soft Ice Cream Maker Blue Two 12 Oz. Freezer Bowls Recipes Included
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this as a Christmas gift, and it works really well. You freeze the bowl, make your mix of whatever you want, and just pop it on and you have soft ice cream in 5 minutes, thicker ice cream in about 10 minutes. Makes 1 large bowl of ice cream, but you can make two batches with the double bowl. Also this doesn't take a whole lot of space up, so it's good if you don't have a whole lot of storage (which I don't). I can't wait to make fruit sorbet and smoothies with fresh fruit in the summer. I really like this because you control all the ingredients, so it's really good if you have food allergies, or diet restrictions. You could make fruit sorbets with spenda or honey - so this would be great if on a diet. The only thing, this doesn't mash fruit - so if you want to make something with fruit and want it really smooth, run it through a blender first. I just chopped a banana really small and it made for some great chunky banana ice cream :) Definetly worth the money- Great Buy!

Cooper Cooler HC01-A Rapid Beverage Chiller, White and Grey Review

Cooper Cooler HC01-A Rapid Beverage Chiller, White and Grey
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I saw this, I knew right away from my college beer drinking days that this would work very well. We used to buy crushed ice and lay hot beer cans on their side and spun them until cold. The drawback: you had to spin them yourself. What I wouldn't have given to have access to a device that provided the fastest and most effective cooling possible.
Pros:
-Works very well (but only if you load as much ice as possible)
-Works very quickly
-Small
-Handles cans, beer bottles, wine bottles, and even odd shaped stuff like juice boxes that you don't want to spin
-A surprising number of settings to suit your taste
-Did a lot of research. As of 8/1/2006 could not find anything even remotely close to this good.
-Spinning IS NOT shaking, so soda and beer do not explode
-Uses ice, not a liner that needs 8 hours of freezer time, both convenient and a space saving option
-Items are not submerged under icy water like other competing units, so you don't have to dredge for your drink in cold water
Cons:
-No power off switch... in standby you get flashing lights on the front which is annoying
-Relatively loud, does not appear to have slow roll option to reduce noise
-Paper labels on wine bottles get beaten up pretty badly, bits of paper come off (bottle becomes unsightly)
-Draining water requires you to unplug at the wall and carry to a sink (unlike my espresso maker which has a lift out chamber)
-Requires a power source, not portable unless you are handy and build a battery with gusto (which I can do, but most wouldn't try)
-Wine bottles tend to drip a little on the counter as the cold ice water is pumped on them, so we have to put a trivet or thick potholder under the front two feet to help discourage dripping on the counter.
I am considering adding a "roll" switch so that I can turn the unit off without unplugging which is an easy modification anyone can do (one a scale of 1 to 10, it's a 1, or really cheap and easy).
Bottom line: Despite cons, I recommend this item. Had it a year and still going, popular at parties.

Lentek 6-Day Automatic Pet Dish Review

Lentek 6-Day Automatic Pet Dish
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had this automatic feeder for 2 years. It works great and has eliminated the screaming my cat used to do before meals. Now she just sits in front of the feeder and waits for it to go off. It holds 6 meals (but one is exposed so it really only has 5 meals). The cover rotates to expose a new meal every 6, 12, or 24 hours. My cat has been very abusive to the machine (because she can smell the food in it) however she has not been able to break the cover or get to any of the other food compartments. If you do force the machine to go backwards the motor will kick on and rotate the cover back to the correct position. My only real problem with the feeder is that the motor is quite loud and drains the battery very quickly. Also as a note, there is no way to set the hour on the feeder, it just goes off 6,12, or 24 hours after you turned it on. So if you want it to always go off at 7am you would need to turn the power on at 7am/pm the first time.

I purchased this because our Trusty Ice Cream maker we had got lost in the move. I saw Kmart had this on sale for $24.00, and thought we'd try it. It worked for the first two batches of Ice Cream, but since that hasn't worked at all. We followed the instructions, including freezing the canister and all and still nothing. I would high recommend against buying this machine, it's not worth the money.

Copco Sierra 24-Ounce Cold Tumbler, Brown Review

Copco Sierra 24-Ounce Cold Tumbler, Brown
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using this cup everyday for the past two months and I love it! I used to just recycle sports drink bottles but no more (BPA's!!!). I also notice that I drink a lot more (green ice-tea) when using a straw and therefore am keeping well hydrated.
Pluses:
*It's BPA (bisphenol A) free... this is a chemical found in a lot of plastics that leach out and is a possible link to cardiovascular disease and diabetes among other things.
*It's dishwasher safe
*Does not sweat and leave rings on desks and tables (at least it doesn't for me)
*Keeps iced drinks cold for around an hour
*Reusable straw and cup means less landfill and more recycling
*Bottom of straw is "winged" which makes stirring drinks easier
*Well made
*Insulated band around the center prevents "Hand-Freeze" when holding
*It looks good
Minuses:
*Is not microwavable (not a concern for me since I never microwave plastics!)
*Is not for use with hot drinks/liquids (also not a concern for me, I don't drink coffee with a straw)
The biggest problem I have is getting the lid to seal tight. It takes a little effort to get the threads just right... if its not on properly, the lid will leak. This is my reason for subtracting 1 star. Other than that, it is well made and I wouldn't hesitate to buy this again!
I haven't used the Starbucks version so I can't compare the two, but I also can't believe it's any better... and for the price this is one great tumbler! I wish they would make a 64oz...lol!

Takeya 2-Piece Flash Chill Iced Tea Maker Set with Silicone Handles, Avocado/Olive, 66-Ounce and 25-Ounce Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love tea but prefer iced tea. I've been on a health kick and like to drink tea through out the day.
This system works well for me. I have a tea kettle that I use to heat the water to the temperature recommended by the tea maker.
I place the loose tea in the steeping container (tea bags would work also). I then pour the hot water into the 25 ounce pitcher.
You are brewing a strong tea concentrate. Steep for recommended time then pour into the ice 1/2 filled 66 ounce pitcher.
You can adjust tea amount or ice amount to suit how strong you like your tea.
During the exchange there may be a few drips. I feel like a scientist mixing and pouring.
I like this system because both pitchers can use the same lids so either could be used to steep if you prefer.
The lids seal perfectly so you could turn the pitchers upside down without fear.
The entire units are BPA free acrylic/plastic so I feel good about that.
The steeper has a very fine screen. So fine that I was worried about putting a finger through it when cleaning.
With over 30 days of daily use so far it is holding up with no hints of wear.
The great thing about this fine a screen is that when using finer teas they don't pass through it into the pitcher.
The only possible issue I could say is the lids are designed to spin and lock into the pouring position.
I did have a few drips when I first tried pouring but I learned not to overfill it and to pour close to the cup I'm using.
I would definitely buy this again. If you like iced tea or a lot of hot tea this might be what you're looking for.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This chiller seems like a fun party option, but it really isn't worth the high cost. I think it would work best for chilling shots for a party; I tried it with mudslides and they were cold but sure ran out quick. If you start with liquor out of the freezer, it chills pretty quickly, but this really for a party you planned ahead rather than for an impromptu get-together. My friends enjoyed the novelty of it all but I'm not sure that novelty factor is worth the price. 2 stars for value, 4 for ability to chill; 3 stars overall.

Basic model electric home made ice cream maker. Has auto shut off if it gets caught on a pice of ice or when it is done. It is a bit loud but you can hear the motor going through different phases so you know when it is almost done; The hole at the top to discharge the salt water could use a spout and the two foot cord is a bit short but the motor is 20% stronger than the more expensive one we looked at. As with all ice cream maker of this style, you can eat it straight away but it should be put in the freezer to allowed to harden. Good plain instructions with recipes.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just picked this up at the store the other day, and thought I'd write a review because it has some big pros and cons. As for the pros, this thing does actually work...really well. I used to have a Kitchenaid blender for about triple what I paid for this Oster, and it left chunks in my fruit smoothies no matter how much I blended. It also leaked a bit. The Oster blends frozen fruit and berries to a smooth consistency without ANY chunks whatsoever. I was kinda amazed because I figured if my expensive blender left chunks, then that was the norm for all blenders. So I'm very happy that it does the job very well. However, it does have a couple downfalls. There is only one speed, a pulse, and the off setting. This doesn't bother me too much though, because as long as it blends my smoothies smooth, then I'm happy no matter what the speed is. This blender's big downfall is its noise: this thing is louder than hell. It's about as loud as a gas powered leaf blower. It actually hurts my ears, and I'm seriously considering wearing earplugs to make morning smoothies. The loudness isn't the whole issue either. It has this high-pitched whine that just really irritates my ears. I guess that's why they called it the Beehive Blender...
In conclusion, it's a good blender because it actually does what it's supposed to do. However, BE WARNED: it is VERY LOUD!!! It will wake your entire house up!

This is the sweetest lil' fridge ever!!!! i love it! it keeps drink nice and cold (somewhere around 38-42 degrees i would say). the only bad thing about it, and its not really that bad, but, every 3 weeks or so, you have to drain the condensation collecting shelf on the bottom. if you dont.....it fills up and spills! not a big deal though, especially if you drink the cokes you put in there. just wait until you refill it with cokes every couple weeks and then dump it. its a small fridge, so it doesnt come with all the perks of a full size fridge. never-the-less, its a great little addition to a bonus room, game room or even a bedroom.

This product does what it's designed to. make ice;however, the main reason I bought it was that there is no drain required. That's true, but if you don't have a drain, this thing has to be manually drained by you, and very often. The lower pan fills up, sometimes several times per hour and when it does you get an ear piercing alarm that doesn't go off until you manually drain the lower pan. This to me defeats the purpose of having it. Not to mention you must drain the ice bin at least twice per day and sometimes more often. If you really want a ice maker I suggest you have a drain nearby for this one, otherwise try another model/brand.

I love that Tassimo has milk beverages, but this has a terrible aftertaste because of the artificial sweetener, just like the Twinings Chai Tea Latte (8 Servings), 16-Count T-Discs for Tassimo Coffeemakers (Pack of 2) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging]. If you are looking for a diet or low calorie option, this may work for you, but hiding artificial sweetener in normal products will always disappoint those of us that can taste the difference. Just buy the Gevalia Black Iced Coffee, 16-Count T-Discs for Tassimo Coffeemakers (Pack of 2) and add your own sugar and milk and you end up with a very nice iced coffee option. Unfortunately it requires dissolving the sugar and having a refrigerator and milk available.

It had been years since I've had homemade ice cream...this ball has allowed me to enjoy it once again (without much work) and I am so grateful! If you follow the directions, it is super easy to make ice cream. Last night alone, I made two batches. Since I am a vegan, I used non-dairy creamer for one batch and unsweetened almond milk for the second batch. Both worked!
I definitely recommend this product. It should come with a warning label though that states you might gain weight after using it. ;)
