I use this exact honeysuckle additive. These additives are a must for deodorant and clean burning of Kerosene, especially in homes. However with high-efficancy kerosene heaters the sents do not come through to notice a difference.

-easy on/off operation

-I've forgotten to turn it on beforehand...being hopeful I turned it on at the beginning of a one-hour massage and the towels were perfectly hot and ready by the end for me to use on my clients back

-arrived on time, no damage in the shipping whatsoever. packed very professionally and securely

-can easily warm up to 10 washcloth-size towels, wet beforehand, fold in half, and roll up

-mild warning: moist warm towels coming out of the warmer smelled funny to me. clients said nothing about the smell. it was not good nor bad, just funny. so after i wet them the next time, i added a couple drops of scented oil blend on the towels...they smelled wonderful !

-i highly recommend this towel warmer. the size is perfect for my in-home massage studio. fits on the bottom of a bookshelf.

I really like this hot towel cabinet, it takes about 20 minutes to get a wet washcloth completely hot, but it's what I expected b/c I never had one before. I'm very pleased! :)

I am giving this towel cabi one star because the towels come out too hot to use. There is no way to vary the temperature, so when I am using the hot towels in a massage session I have to take them out (hurts my hands it's so hot), shake them out to cool them for a while, and then I can use them. Not efficient. Then I'm always worried it will be too hot for the client, also. Total FAIL!

I purchased this from Sears 2 years ago. The sun has completely destroyed the chemical make-up of this wicker, and the bottoms of the barstools ( where a person would sit on) have all broken up! Even my Ikea wicker furniture has done better. So disappointed with the cheap make of this product, although I like its contemporary look.

Well, the order was placed and I received a prompt notice that it had shipped. VERY happy about that update. From there, the story loses it's way. They package arrived WITHOUT the chairs. Additionally, the box was destroyed, which also resulted in several of the bolts/washers being lost. I was short (3) sets of the connectors. My hope is that those that were included are enough to keep the table together. It was a very time involved build project. The bolts were not easy to screw and the tool provided was somewhat like what a child would have in a toy tool set. The table is decent, but it is not level. It rocks back and forth, regardless of what surface it is on. I have tried it on concrete and a wooden deck with the same results. During my dialogue with Amazon, they said they could not just send out the chairs. I would need to take the table apart, box it and have UPS pick it up. They would have to send me an entirely new set. I opted to take a partial credit on the purchase and cut my loses. I would pass on this purchase.

Great bristo set! Exactly as described. It needs two people to assemble it, but it was easy. We recommend to use a different wrench than the one that comes with the kit because is very flimsy.

Update September 2013: We placed the set in our terrace. It rained, and the metal in the chairs and table rusted, and stained the floor. I would take a star or two if I could because of this. However. We still like the set. We hope it doesn't break down any time soon and the metal holds on.

This set is really good quality and great look. I live in Ca, and it is all the time in the garden, half day in shadow, and half in sun.

The only complain I have is that legs are not in the same level, so they seesaw several millimeters, and that is why I removed one star.

I just received this item today. It was packaged well and arrived undamaged.

When I opened it I noticed that the two burners are different from each other. The burner on the left is labeled as COOK/BOIL and the right-hand burner is labeled REHEAT/SIMMER.

In operation, the right-hand burner only gets half as hot as the left.

While this wasn't mentioned anywhere in the Amazon description of this item, I feel it's still a good value at this price.

This unit (better chef buffet dual burner) for the price is an ok item. It will not boil water over 4 quarts a cup of water boils nicely. One problem I have with this item when you flip the switch both burners are on no matter how low you set the dial. It is not a huge deal but make sure you dont put your hand down on it thinking it was off.

I bought this as a gift and the person I bought it for LOVES it!.. While it's meant to be an EXTRA couple of burners, this person lives in a cabin w/electric, but no stove.. He said that his pots and pan fit great on it and he likes the different wattages. It works so fast, that he said it boils water in 2 minutes!!! It's also easy to clean.

Honest reviews on Better Chef Buffet Burner Table Top Dual

This is the third brand of double burner that I purchased, and they all have the same problem. They work fine until a pot of water boils over. The water runs down inside the case and you get a big flash and a cloud of smoke, and shorted out fried electrics. Even the "flat plate" types have his problem. Can't use induction types because the pots and pans are stainless or other non-magnetic materials. I'd love to see someone make an affordable two burner portable ceramic cooktop. Until then, I'll keep buying cheap single burners and consider them to be disposable.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Better Chef Buffet Burner Table Top Dual

It works, but has some serious design flaws. First, the heating elements are not solidly stable, so that they may tilt or unseat. If they become unseated when they are hot, you have to jiggle them back with an oven mitt or something. Second, there is only one on-off switch. This means that when the unit is turned on, both burners are on. Even if you turn one you aren't using down to MIN, it is still warm. If you forget and leave it higher, it's dangerous. Would it have been so hard to put two switches on the thing?

My windows can't handle a window air conditioner without major hassles. Great to have a solution I can use for the odd week of too hot weather then easily put away again. Nice to have the option of cooling the bedroom area at night and the wife's home office during the day. I like the ARC-143MX. The 3M filter instead of the carbon one (ARC-14S) means more air flow but no odor removal. Pick the model on that difference. Cools my 13x13 bedroom down from 81 to 72F in 30 minutes. Outside temperature usually dropping from 87 to 80 at the same time. I appreciate not having to dump out water! Casters roll easily. Not designed to go upstairs at night and downstairs every morning. Handles are just indentations on the sides of the shell: wouldn't take much to drop and lack of anything to grip makes two person carry by handles an iffy thing to do. Shell does not handle torque stress well. Compressor noise is a little too much for me to sleep next to but quiet enough to hold a conversation while standing around the ARC-143MX. The window kit is plain PVC and screws might strip out: it needed some caulk and stick-on foam strips to not let in outside air and bugs. Would be better if window kit was designed so intake and exhaust could be spaced as far apart as the width of the window opening instead of fixed at a few inches apart. Remote easier to use than front-facing controls on unit because unit display awkward to read unless kneeling. Unit is tall enough that the cold air is mixing in the upper part of the room and not getting trapped by the bed or couch. Power cord length is good but I can see where longer would come in handy. For a product in this price range, the timer should be upgraded to do daily scheduled on and off timings.

I like the ARC-143MX and hope the next model gets a few tweaks.

It works really well! The only problems with it deal with the extensions.

1) Measure the distance from your window and make sure the hoses will reach! We're using this for our basement and the windows are really high up! We had to put it on pieces of wood about a foot in the air. But the windows are so high that the hose barely reach, they're lightly hanging on...

2) Emptying the dehumidifier is ridiculous! It is a little plug in the back! I would be much easier if it was a bucket you could take out from the front but noooo! You have to put a small bowl or deep plate underneath it to catch the water as it dribbles out. While it says "can pump 101(ish) pints/day" is does not HOLD that much. It only holds about 2 cups! (4 pints!) Such a disappointment. If you want to drain it with a hose, you have to buy a condensate pump which is another $50-100! The last problem, is because of the height issue, every time we need to empty it, we have to detach the hoses and turn it around! This was a HORRIBLE design!

All in all, if you want it for cooling or a fan, it's AWESOME! If you want it for dehumidifying, look elsewhere.

I really like the product and it cools very well. I purchased 2 to cool a kitchen with lots of refrigeration equipment. I was not able to use the window part because I had to drill through the wall for my venting. Had a sheetmetal shop find me some 5" dryer type vents one with a flap and one with out. It was complicated to get it all set up. The one real downfall I have with it is that that they have to stand out from the wall about 18" to the back of the units. It takes up far more floor space than I was expecting. I'm sure that a more clever installer could come up with a way to make the area more compact.

Honest reviews on Whynter 14,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with 3M

If you want cool, then this is a great unit.

However, to drain the machine, there is no attachment , so a dish-like tray needs to be underneath .The dish has to be squeezed in under the unit. It can't be too deep, or it will overflow and wet the rug or floor. VERY POOR DESIGN REGARDING THE DRAIN PORT.

THEY NEED TO DESIGN IT HIGHER AND ADD AN ACCESSORY LIKE A DEEP TRAY WITH A LIP THAT GOES UNDERNEATH THE DRAIN PORT.

only 4 stars because of the port/drainage design.

ps. I received a reply from the company today after writing this review and they advised attaching a 5/8" silicone hose to the drain port to make things easier. LOL LOL

This unit is heavy. I had expected that a unit rated at 14,000 BYU would be a super cooler. Not so much. For the size, it is unable to cope with temps over 90 degrees. I would recommend a smaller unit with a better fan and a continuous operation function.

We love to seat by the fire but after we got an estimate for installing a gas fireplace, we had to look for other options. This gel fuel fireplace turned out to be a great alternative. We have had it for over a week now and here are the things I love about it:

It was very easy to install. It came with a metal bracket that you screw to the wall and then simply hang the fireplace on the bracket.

It is slim enough to be hanged by my dining room table so we can enjoy beautiful flames while dining

It does provide quite a bit of heat. We did not turn the thermostat down the first time we tried this fireplace and the room became noticeably warmer within an hour. We are hoping we can use it as a source heat next time we loose power in the middle of the cold season.

We used gel fuel by real flame and it produced nice orange fire with some light cracking sound. There was no smell while the fire was burning but we felt light alcohol smell when we left some unburned fuel in the fireplace. Next time we will not pour the entire bottle into the fireplace!

The flame is protected by the glass

On the days when I don't want the extra heat, i just put large tea lights on the fireplace shelf. The fireplace has stainless steel backing which gives beautiful reflection when burning candles and the flames are well protected behind the glass screen. I love this double duty!

Did I mention that the fireplace is beautiful and modern looking? :-)

The only con I can think of is the cost of the gel fuel. I wish there would be a cheaper alternative.

We use this heater in our back room -it's an addition that the previous owners put on and is not insulated super well. The winters are usually cold in this room, but the heater makes it so comfortable for all of us. The room is approx. 25' long by 12' wide and the 2nd or 3rd heat setting is perfect for us. I also love that the top and of the heating unit is cool to the touch -I have a dog and a toddler and that was a big concern so that they wouldn't get a burn in case they touched it. We are really happy with this purchase and would highly recommend!

We used to have an Edenpure, but I like this better. While it has only been running for a few months in a room with little heat, it delivers what it promised and keeps the small room at a comfortable temperature. It makes a LOT LESS noise than the Edenpure too! My cats love it and sleep on a raised bed 4 fett away which was my main purpose in buying this. No problems so far, but is important to keep the filter clean.

Unpacked, followed instructions started unit. When set on the lowest setting (one Light), Unit never comes on. Set it one higher (two Lights) Unit never goes off. Sometimes when I switch it from the two light setting to the one light setting the unit goes through the cool down cycle like it should but never turns the blower off. In order to get the blower to turn off you have to unplug it, then, according to instructions, you have to wait 2 hours to plug it back in. Pita.

I have two other Portable Infrared Heaters, both work just fine. This unit is either badly designed or poorly manufactured...

UPDATE

BUYER BEWARE

Now, ten months later, with very little use, this unit comes on but produces very little heat. It may be a Duraflame name on it but it is a Twin-Star warranty. In contacting them I am getting the proverbial run around. "Based on the supplier of your purchase they are not an authorized dealer. Please contact the dealer for a replacement." There are a lot of good units like this I would stay as far away from this one as I could.

Purchased this because I was looking for a "safe" heater for a toddler's room. Overall I'm pretty happy with this unit. It comes with a remote so that you can turn it on/off or adjust the heat level setting. it heats up a small 12x12 room quite well at a mid-level heat setting so I would imagine that it would be fine for at least a medium sized living room. safety-wise, that box is very comfortable to touch on the outside while it is on. the only potential "hot" spot would be the direct vent where the heat comes out so as long as a kid doesn't jam his/her fingers into the grate, there shouldn't be any worry about burns. price is a bit steep for what you get but overall I've been satisfied

My wife loves a good cup of tea and in the past, we just left the kettle on very low heat on the stove. The other night I came home to the smell of gas. The breeze had blown out the flame and my wife, who had a really bad cold, was upstairs and could not smell the gas.

Time to get something a bit safer while we still had a house! After some research, we ordered this electric kettle (to the joy of my wife's British friends who think we are barbarians for not having one.)

I was astounded at how fast this thing heats water, maybe 5 minutes for a mostly full pot from tap-cold to full rolling boil.

The automatic shut-off works perfectly (and has a small light so you need not guess if it is off or on) and we no longer need to worry about errant gas fumes and whistling kettles.

The kettle is well-made, attractive and seems to be sturdy and definitely works a treat. Get one and you won't be disappointed. Needs a three-prong outlet, so make sure you can use it first. Sides do get hot but the handle stays properly cool and the safety lid works very nicely with no drops or leaks that I have seen.

Update, March 2012: About two years after the original purchase, the kettle died. We replaced it with the same model and that one has been going strong to this day. There's almost never a day it does not get used and other than cleaning it with vinegar once in a while to get the minerals out, it just keeps on chugging.

My wife even does hard boiled eggs in it using Alton Brown's method.

Good stuff, well made and at a fair price.

In replacing our stovetop kettle with an electric one, I was looking for one to match the stainless steel & black appliances in our kitchen, and this one is great. This heats water much faster than the stovetop or microwave, and is pretty quiet in the process; the sides get a little hot during the heating, but the bottom stays cool enough to move straight to the table (sans trivet!) I don't know if the "scale screen" included will help any, but otherwise I think this a great purchase!

Best Deals for Chef's Choice 677 Cordless Electric 1-3/4-Quart Teakettle

I'm from Australia (and have also lived in the UK) and consider an electric teakettle a basic staple in the kitchen.

Two major gripes:

1. If you look inside there are actually silicone(?) fasteners used that touch the water consequently any water you boil in this one smells and tastes like metal and plastic/rubber, even after you've brewed it into tea. Completely unacceptable. Baking soda doesn't help much.

2. The stainless steel finish is HOT to the touch. Scalding/burning hot. I can't believe this thing is actually a consumer approved product. There is NO insulation whatsoever, yet this is a counter top product. You might as well just use a pot on the stove. Imagine if your stainless steel toaster burned hot on the outside.

Three minor gripes:

1. The lid is not solid and seems like it would break in a fairly short lifespan of use.

2. You pretty much have to fill it by lifting up the lid. You can't use the spout for this, like you can with a lot of models.

3. This thing is heavy. Heavier than a pot you might use to boil the same amount of water. This adds to the risk of burns.

On the plus side:

1. It looks fine.

2. This does boil your water quickly... so if you like the sound of bubbling water and that's all, then I guess you could buy this.

Unhappy buyer this one's going back. I wouldn't want this if someone gave it to me, let alone pay for it.

Honest reviews on Chef's Choice 677 Cordless Electric 1-3/4-Quart Teakettle

I gladly agree with most of the reviewers on these pages--this is a nice kettle that boils water very quickly. I like how the switch works, and the little light that tells you it's on, and I figure that for 40 bucks I got my money's worth already. But I have a few gripes.

As some other reviewers noted, the metal outside of this kettle gets much too hot. Don't do what I did and count on its insulating qualities when the kettle is too close to a plastic bag left on the counter. And don't touch the thing!

Also, the little button that opens up the lid, it don't work so good, so to speak, and if I want to open the kettle I have to pull the lid open with my fingers. That's not good design, dear Chef's Choice people.

I probably bought the wrong kettle. What I really want, and what I'll look for next time, is a kettle that has a separate heating element, so that the actual kettle is just that, a kettle, with a wide top--so I can heat broth in it for risotto (and then be able to wash it) and boil eggs (this opening is too small). I should have looked around more, or perhaps spent more money. Don't get me wrong, I've been pretty pleased with this kettle: if you want a nice-looking appliance to heat water fast, this is it. If you want more, well, keep on looking.

Update (after three years of almost daily use): the other day, the kettle seemed not to turn itself off properly anymore, as if the switch wouldn't click all the way up anymore. I took off the bottom and jiggled the mechanism a little bit, and now it's working properly again. Still, I'm keeping my eye on it and don't fully trust the auto-off feature anymore.

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Chef's Choice 677 Cordless Electric 1-3/4-Quart Teakettle

I would not recommend this teakettle because the plastic lid seemed to off-gas a noxious smell and taste when boiling water. The off-gassing only started to dissipate after many boilings. I followed the instructions and boiled and emptied the kettle once before using, but my family and I noticed a distinctly unpleasant taste in our tea which coincided with the chemical smell emanating from the kettle as it boiled the water. It was also quite noisy.

First off, I am a firm believer that a fireplace should, you know, have real fire in it. I was very hesitant about getting an electric fireplace because some of them are so cheesy looking. After shopping around, my husband and I weren't able to find a gas fireplace that we liked, and we weren't sold on gel, so we decided to try out the electric. I'm so glad that we did. The fireplace is absolutely lovely! It is very heavy duty and well made. It is veneered, but you wouldn't know it. We had to really look to actually determine that it wasn't solid wood. It is a bit of work to put together, but if you have a power drill it is much easier. The flames and logs are controlled independently so you can make them brighter or dimmer. On the lowest 3 settings the flames are very convincing, to the point that people have asked if it is a gas or electric fireplace. You can also run it with or without heat, which is very nice. It also comes with a handy little remote. We have a small living room (11 x 15) and use the fireplace to supplement our forced air heat. It makes the room very cozy and warm. The shelving on the sides is very handy, we were able to retrofit it to house our electronics. Everyone who has seen it loves it and so do we! The only thing that I didn't like was the obnoxious warning sticker on the front glass. It peels off easily but leaves a lot of sticky residue. It came off after some scrubbing and doesn't change my opinion about the quality of the product.

Winters are tough in Chicago and rather than turning up the heat in the whole house, I can tourn on the fireplace and I am warm and cozy in my at-home professional office! the price was compatible with producs at Lowes, Home Depot and Mernards but this is much better looking and a fair price!

The product looks good when assembled, and assembly is not difficult, instructions are pretty good considering it comes from China. We had some problems, however, first with the delivery, when one of the delivery men (it comes via a trucking company, as it is too big for UPS or Fedex) dropped the box containing the fireplace unit in our driveway because he was in such a hurry that he tried to carry our paperwork in one hand and the box in his other hand-didn't work! Luckily, the packing was strong enough that there was no damage to the unit. Then, when opening the fireplace mantel box, we found three damaged pieces inside-surprisingly they were in the center of the carton, presumably well-protected from shipping damage. Who knows? Maybe they were packed in damaged condition at the factory in China. Anyway, a phone call to SEI in Texas had the required replacement parts on their way, and they arrived 8 calendar days later via UPS. Customer service was good, but I was still frustrated by having to wait the extra week to continue the assembly, as I had already assembled the bookcases. I think this item is a decent value compared to the prices I've seen in stores or online. However, I also believe all electric fireplaces like this are very overpriced considering what you actually get. We hope it will last for a good long time, but we'll have to wait and see on that.
