Kitchen & Style Stainless Steel Garlic Press & Silicone Peeler Review

This is the first time I've ever used a garlic press and I'm so glad I have one now! This garlic press is so lightweight, but sturdy and easy to fit in hands. The handles are non-slip with a nice grip and has an elegant look about it. I love this garlic press, due to the fact, the other I've seen, do not have the non-slip grip.





The silicone peeler that comes with it AMAZED me! I can't believe that this simple silicone peeler, peels garlic as easily as it did! Both garlic press and silicone peeler were very very easy to use and the garlic came out, finely minced, just the way I like it. What I also love about this press, is that it's dishwasher safe!


All this time, I've been peeling my garlic they way they show on the Food Network Channel.  Take a knife, give it a whack and the peeling cracks to where it just slides off.  Now....there are times, where I don't want my garlic smashed, therefore; I would have to patiently pee the garlic.  With the Silicon Peeler, all you have to do is put your garlic clove inside the peeler.  Roll the Silicone Peeler back and forth a couple of times and Voila!  Garlic comes out peeled!  It's so simple and I don't think I will do without it.  

The Stainless Steel Garlic Press by Kitchen & Style made it easy and fast to finely mince my garlic.  It was more of a puree garlic, but I prefer this.  All you have to do is pop the peeled garlic clove in the press, give it a squeeze, and out comes your perfectly minced (or puree) garlic.  You will have to take a knife of small spatula to get the remainder of what left over garlic there is, hanging around on the press.

Kitchen & Style has a lifetime guarantee on their garlic press.  That says a lot about a company, who believes in their product, to stand behind it with a lifetime guarantee.  You can grab not only your garlic press, but also the silicone peeler that comes with it, by visiting Kitchen & Style's Amazon page.

MIRA Brand Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Plunger

When I first received the MIRA Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Plunger, I was truly impressed! The first thing I noticed was the shine of the Coffee Press.  It has a shiny stainless steel finish and is absolutely gorgeous.  It makes approximately 8 cups of coffee and keeps the coffee warm up to 2 hours.



The second thing that impressed me was the function of it.  Let me tell you...at first I thought I goofed up.  I didn't read any instructions, but I knew you had to add coffee grounds and hot water.  Once I did this I instantly groaned, "Oh, Crap!"  I was for sure that the coffee was going to have grounds all in it!  



I proceeded to insert the plunger on top of the coffee press and then gently pressed down on it.  At first, the Stainless Steel press didn't seem very hot.  After 5 minutes, I came back and was very very surprised how warm the coffee press had become.  I then poured my coffee, holding my breath and crossing my fingers...Voila!  Perfect brewed coffee WITHOUT THE GROUNDS!  The taste of this coffee seemed so smooth!  



I'm not for sure how many tablespoons of coffee you are suppose to add, but I read that it's 1-2 tablespoons for each cup.  I thought this odd, as I normally add that much to a coffee pot that holds 8 cups.  I know this MY 8 cups is a coffee cup, but in all actuality, 8 cups is less than a coffee cup, you actually have to go by a measuring cup.



The MIRA Brand Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Plunger is doubled walled and made from a high quality 18/10 stainless steel.  The French Coffee Press is a three part stainless steel plunger that features an ultra fine mesh filter.

This Coffee Press will compliment any kitchen decor and can serve as a serving piece as well.  The MIRA Brand Stainless Steel French Coffee Press is BPA free, dishwasher safe and will not discolor or crack over time.  This last feature makes it perfect and better than the glass pots!

I absolutely love the finished look, the classy and elegant design and how I can have it anywhere in my kitchen and it acts as a complimentary piece.  

If you want to have the finest tasting coffee, that is smooth and will last much longer than the average glass pot and give you another addition piece to your kitchen, you have to visit MIRA Brands site and get yours today!  You can also find their French Press Coffee Plunger on Amazon.

I received the Yumms Burger Press in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.  I will start off by noting, that this Yumms Burger Press is a very simple kitchen tool, that is not complicated in looks or in the use of it.



The Yumms Burger Press is so easy to use and is so convenient when making the perfect shaped burger every time.  All you have to do is place your hamburger meat in the press, take the top press and press down.  It's that simple!  But...how often have you tried making the perfect burger in a press or something similar, only to have trouble getting the burger out of it, unharmed and undamaged?

With the Yumms Burger Press, you are actually pressing the burger into a press plate that has a little lifter, making it easy to flip that burger onto a grill or skillet.  The Yumms Burger Press makes 1/4 to 1/2 inch patties.  The press is made of durable plastic that is non-stick, therefore, there are no worries about your patties sticking.  And...not only can you use this for hamburgers, but you can use the press for tuna patties, salmon cakes or sausage.

I can't tell you how many times I have patted and patted, over and over again, just to make a decent shaped hamburger patty.  Now, I don't have to spend that extra time getting it right.  All I have to do is pop my hamburger meat or sausage into the Yumms Burger Press, press and Voila!  Perfect patty.

If you are interested in purchasing this little gem for yourself, you can head on over to Amazon-Yumms Burger Press and get yours today.
