I've owned a Keurig Platinum B70 since January 2007 and have liked it a lot since getting it.K-cups are very convenient and aren't overly expensive when purchased from Amazon.My primary complaint about it is the pump noise and vibration.Keurig updated the design and greatly reduced the noise and vibration in their latest model of the Platinum and in this Breville model, and I wanted to find out just how much of an improvement there was.In my opinion, the improvement is huge.It is much, much quieter.I also liked the addition of the smaller cup size of four ounces, as well as the option to use a built-in water filter.Functionally, the Keurig Platinum and Breville BKC700XL are identical.The Breville adds a couple of nice convenience features (such as a supplied My K-Cup with a storage bin), and the cosmetics are clearly different.After using both, the cosmetics are a wash for me (some pluses for one model, and some pluses for the other), so it comes down to the difference in price.Right now, the Breville costs over $90 more than the Platinum.I don't think it's worth it, but it certainly might be for anyone that prefers the looks of the Breville.Either way, the coffee is good and easy to make!

Product Description:
The best coffee is always the freshest coffee. That's why it makes no sense to brew by the pot: by the time you get around to drinking most of the joe, it's been sitting in a carafe (or worse, on top of a burner), going more bitter and stale with each minute. The Breville single-cup brewer takes a different approach. It makes coffee one cup at a time, so each cup tastes as fresh as the first one in the pot. The unit's LCD control panel includes a digital clock with auto on/off time, five brew strengths, and variable brew temperature, which allows for customizing each cup--perfect for households or dinner parties in which everyone likes a different brew. Best of all, the brewing process is very, very difficult to mess up. The Breville's patented "showerhead" sprays a precisely calibrated amount of water through a "K-Cup," a technology made famous by Keurig's single-cup brewers, using temperature and pressure designed to extract the maximum amount of flavor from the grounds. The unit provides a sample variety pack of single-use K-Cup coffee pods, including cocoa and tea, as well as a reusable My K-Cup that accepts any variety of ground coffee. The included My K-Cup and measuring spoon conveniently store in the brewer's top compartment. Furthermore, the machine comes with an iced-beverage function that dispenses a concentrated 3-1/2-ounce shot of tea or coffee. Simply dilute with ice and add water, milk, or sweeteners for an iced tea or coffee. Other highlights include low-noise pump technology for quiet brewing, a removable 60-ounce water tank that can brew up to 10 cups before it needs refilling, and a charcoal water-filtration system to reduce impurities for optimal taste. Made from heavy-duty stainless steel in a sleek, stylish design, the 1500-watt single-cup coffeemaker measures approximately 14-3/4 by 12-3/4 by 16-3/4 inches.

Works good, but I put a pressure regulator in line before it,set at 25 psi, after reading reviews of failures.My line water line pressure is about 80psi.

FilterStream A710 AirTamer Professional Air Purifier With Very Low Energy Consumption Review

FilterStream A710 AirTamer Professional Air Purifier With Very Low Energy Consumption
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This machine is well designed.Easy to use.I would say maybe a bit louder than some of the others on the market; however if you look closely some of the others don't cover pets.Yes, pets.I noticed that a lot of them would filter cat dander.Also, I wanted something that would address specifically mold.This does the trick.I can tell the house is cleaner and have had guest comment that the house doesn't smell like musty dog anymore (though I didn't know it did).

As I said, it's well designed with many things in mind.I'm rather keen on the fact that the lights on the device has 16 different light settings.I turned off the lights since I'm very light sensitive.

There is also the option to use other filters and not be tied into buying their filers only.Great savings in filers and energy.

What I was looking for: consumer report friendly, somewhat portable/sleek design, dog dander, mold, and energy.(dont' forget the energy cost - it can be way more than the filter cost)

Great buy!Considering buying another one for the bedroom.

Bodum 10552-16US Ottoni Cordless 51-Ounce Electric Water Kettle Review

Bodum 10552-16US Ottoni Cordless 51-Ounce Electric Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
On the positive side, this is beautifully designed kettle and well constructed of stainless steel, which is what I was expecting after paying a whooping $179 for a kettle.
However if like me, you were willing to pay such a price for a mere kettle in the hope of having an all metal kettle with no plastic parts, you would be disappointed: the water level is metal; the filter is cheap plastic but it is removable; however the inside of the lid is a black plastic on which water condenses and this for me was unacceptable for this price range. I fail to understand manufacturers who can be so greedy on their profits so much so that they have to cut costs by substituting with cheap plastic even when asking for a premium price. Also kettle is made in China, so must not have cost Bodum half the asking price....For $50 I could find an all metal kettle with a few plastic points, so I had to return this kettle back. Not good enough, so until someone comes up with a kettle that takes into account the concerns of customers, I will have to wait and settle for a stovetop kettle...

Click Here to see more reviews about: Bodum 10552-16US Ottoni Cordless 51-Ounce Electric Water Kettle

Product Description:
An electric version of the original Ottoni Stovetop Kettle, this compact cylindrical kettle boasts the same sparse post-modernist '70s design with whimsical touches such as the mystical blue-beaded lid handle and a row of raised dots hammered into the steel around its upper circumference. However, the kettle also has a function: its slightly wider base directs heat upward so water boils faster than in other kettles. Even more, its stainless-steel heating element sits below a stainless-steel plate to ensure maximum surface contact between the hot metal and water. The kettle quickly and efficiently boils up to 51 ounces of water for tea, hot cocoa, and more. For safety, its automatic shut-off function turns the unit off once the water boils or if the heating element overheats. Other highlights include a durable plastic loop handle, a lift-off lid for easy refilling, and a removable scale filter in the spout for better-tasting beverages, as well as a base unit for cordless operation, a simple on/off switch, and brilliantly polished stainless-steel construction that will nicely compliment any kitchen decor. To clean, wipe the outside of the kettle with a damp cloth and descale as needed. The fully automatic electric water kettle measures 10-1/2 by 10-1/2 by 7-4/5 inches and carries a two-year warranty.

Hunter 33222 Care-Free 2.2-gallon HumidifierPlus with Exclusive NiteGlo Night Light Review

Hunter 33222 Care-Free 2.2-gallon HumidifierPlus with Exclusive NiteGlo Night Light
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I must respond to the previous reviews before I discuss mine. 1st-The same water does not sit in the base the entire time; it cycles through. 2nd-Any water that sits in any location for too long will grow bacteria. That is why they tell you to rinse the machine on a daily basis (as ALL humidifiers recommend). If you let it sit too long, the water will turn brown, but that is due to mineral deposits in the water. Using filtered or distilled water will minimize this, but so will rinsing out the unit on a daily basis. Regardless of the type of water used, the filter will build up deposits, which means it's doing its job. That is why they recommend cleaning the filter and the entire unit on a weekly basis with vinegar. This is nothing unique to this particular unit; all humidifiers will require regular cleaning. 3rd-To rinse the base all you have to do is remove the filters and the reservoir. Nothing too difficult. This will occur with ALL humidifiers. You cannot expect to have a machine that uses water and expect not to have to clean it. Leave some water in a bucket for a few days and see what happens. Moisture left to be will breed bacteria eventually. If you use this unit on a daily basis, rinse and clean it regularly. If you use it occasionally, then make sure it's dry before it sits there for any amount of time. 4th-I have 3 of these units and not one leaks. You probably got a defective one.

MY REVIEW: I purchased 4 other brands of humidifiers before trying and choosing this one. It is the best I have found in a decent price range. I now own 3 in varying sizes for my home. It is very efficient and puts the moisture out very well. This size will run for quite awhile without needing a refill. It is simple to clean; it comes apart easily and the permafilter is nice because you only have to clean it in water and vinegar and not spend $$ on new filters. The fan is louder on high but it is a soothing, constant noise and really much quieter than others I have tried. It works well when sleeping because it is like white noise. Low and medium are pretty quiet and I am able to keep it on medium in my living room even when I'm watching TV or reading. I measure the humidity in my home and these Hunter's really work quite quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend this unit!

Bissell Cleanview Deluxe Corded Handheld Vacuum, 47R51 Review

Bissell Cleanview Deluxe Corded Handheld Vacuum, 47R51
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Well, I just got my Bissell handheld vacuum in the mail yesterday. I tried it out right away and I was immediately pleased by the weight (not too heavy), the handle configuration (on top, not on the side where handling and dexterity can get awkward) and the power of the motor and suction. I think it's pretty powerful for a small handheld vac. I really like the fact that it came with a hose and multiple attachments for tight corners and spaces. The cord is a decent length, too, although I wish they had cordless options for this model. The only real complaint I have is the powerful burst of air that shoots from the vents on each side. It's a powerful motor, so I understand that you have vent that air somehow, but it's so forceful that I notice it actually creates resistance against my leg when I hold it at my side. That gust of air can become problematic when trying to tackle a pile of dirt, but it's all about maneuvering and handling.

Other than that,I really like this thing! I put away that big, bulky vacuum I had to lug around, so that was a nice feeling. I highly recommend this for people who live in smaller units and condos and have limited storage space.

Swedish Firesteel - Army Model Review

Swedish Firesteel - Army Model
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Lanyard is plenty long and it makes lots of sparks (after a couple of scrapes to remove the paint).If lanyard was not long enough one could exercise ingenuity and put on a longer cord.

It would easily light propane, but if you try to ignite a piece of sheet paper you will have trouble.Sheet paper is not fine enough and is not proper tinder (though you could shred and rumple it to make good tinder).You need a finer tinder bundle. Paper towel was also unsuccessful.I had easy success with toilet paper and dryer lint.It sparks more if you slow down and increase pressure a little.If the woods are wet and you can find no dry tinder you are in trouble, which is why most people carry tinder or fire starter or pick it up on the trail when they can.

I think it is easier to use the magnesium fire starter with a basic metal jigsaw blade as the magnesium shavings will ignite paper towel easily, and can also ignite paper if you make a dime sized pile of shavings (when igniting paper don't set the end of the magnesium fire starter on the paper as when you scrape the flint the vibrations will jiggle the shavings all around).Even better than a jigsaw blade may be a short hacksaw blade because it has a good hole you can put the cord through.

In summary: if you carry or can find/make good tinder the Swedish firesteel is tough, simple, and a good product.For normal people who want a firestarter that is somewhat easier to use carry the magnesium.That is what I will carry, in addition to good tinder (cotton balls with vaseline mushed in), and a very good lighter (more lights/space than matches).

P.S. Just watched Bear G. in Man vs. Wild (Discovery channel) use this after a major rainstorm starting a fire on the first strike BECAUSE he had previously harvested and protected some very good tinder.He did not use a magnesium firestarter.It does produce a 5,500

Intex Deluxe Saltwater System Review

Intex Deluxe Saltwater System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I normally don't write product reviews but I wanted to help what I suspect was an unfair one by a prior reviewer.
We've been using this system for 3 years with a 6000 gallon pool and it has changed the way we look at pool care. The procedure is simple-- add the recommended amount of salt, program the unit, and it takes care of the rest.
No more algae, no more adding chemicals, no more burning eyes and dry skin. The pool water is like physiological saline and opening your eyes under water is like bathing them in Visene. Very pleasant. Everybody who uses our salt water pool loves it, particulary people with chlorine sensitivity and dry, sensitive skin as it is therapeutic for the latter.
When adding this much salt (160 pounds in our case), don't be discouraged by the unit giving a low salt warning at first. It takes up to 24 hours for the salt to fully dissolve and register. I personally appreciate the unit having the capability to tell you whether your salt level is too low or too high (in addition to otehr warnings like insufficinet flow from the main filter system).
For the price especially, I find this unit highly sophisticated. Try it, you'll like it.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Intex Deluxe Saltwater System

Product Description:
This applied energy current changes the salt dissolved in the water into liquid chlorine - hypochlorite. The liquid chlorine immediately mixes with the water leaving the chlorinator cell and flows into the swimming pool as clean, chlorinated water. The continuous introduction of liquid chlorine will ensure the continuous sanitization of the pool's water and will not allow the growth of algae. When the liquid chlorine has destroyed the bacteria in the pool, it reverts to salt. This means that the salt is continually regenerated in the process and the only loss of salt is due to backwashing, splash-out and overflow. It may be necessary to add salt to the pool water to bring the concentration back to the desired level of 3,000 parts per million. This form of chlorination will not damage your pool. Chlorine "tablets" or "powder" can damage the pool liner while saline conversion will not. Also, the mildly salted water will not affect the PVC plumbing, filters or pump. Saline chlorination is easier and safer. You will not need to buy or store any dangerous chemicals as you would for a pool.

Pitcher Filter Review

Pitcher Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Nice filter design.When the pitcher is half empty, fill it from the tap.This way you always have at least 1 quart of filtered water ready.You can still pour from the filtered water at the bottom, as the top half with the tap water trickles through the filter.
The pitcher must be used.The filter cannot dry out, nor can the water be left to sit for more than "3-4 days" without replacement.
I like this filter, but I also need to get a water filter that fits directly on my faucet, because there are too many occasions where it is inconvenient to get and use the pitcher from the refrigerator.
Knowing when to replace the filter and where to get it from are problems.They suggest replacing it every 160 quarts (80 pitchers); or two months ...

After realizing how much electricity my swimming pool pump was using,I started seeing about replacing it with a more efficient one. I decided on the Pentair Intelliflo 011013 and had it installed almost 2 months ago. I have been very pleased with it and according to my calculations,my electricity usage has decreased about 20 kWh/day,which in our area is about $2.20,or about $65.00/month in the swimming season.It is very quiet. I run my pump about 16 hours/day during the season and 8-10 hours/day in the off-season. Of course it will take a while to pay for itself,but so far I'm happy.

I buy these humidifiers because they are easy to clean & maintain, and they broadcast a nice mist.

There are no gooey-feeling in-the-water-filters to clean or replace. There is one little filter that cleans the air before it enters into the humidifier, but other than that there is none. It doesn't touch the water.

I have used these humidifiers to put in about 3 drops of essential oil to broadcast through my home daily. They work wonderfully. They are much cheaper than the expensive machines made for essential oils & I think they do a better job.

I have been using these humidifiers for years. I hope they don't stop making them!

I purchased this recently after I returned my unreliable Saeco V'spresso model. This machine has been much more reliable and makes excellent quality espresso/cappuccino with the push of a button. My favorite feature is the frothing system that allows it possible to make a cappuccino without moving the cup. It is much quicker than the traditional steam wand for lazy people like myself. Jura-Capresso seems to have much better customer service and warranties than its competitors as an added bonus.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Jura-Capresso 13422 Impressa C9 One Touch Automatic Coffee-and-Espresso Center, Black

Product Description:
With an exceptionally compact design and user-friendly front-panel controls, this automatic coffee-and-espresso center creates cafe-quality coffee drinks without ever having to move the cup. Simply push a preprogrammed beverage button for one or two coffees, one or two espressos, cappuccino, milk, or hot water. The countertop appliance comes equipped with an insulated 14-ounce thermal stainless-steel milk container, which stays right next to the machine and keeps cold milk cold for up to eight hours. The machine will steam and froth the milk; grind, tamp, and high-pressure brew coffee or espresso; then dispense automatically into the cup. Its commercial-grade conical burr grinder offers six fineness settings for any type of bean--from light to dark roasts, while a separate funnel for pre-ground coffee allows for making no-hassle decaf or flavored coffee drinks. The unit features an 18-bar power pump with a 1450-watt stainless-steel-lined ThermoBlock heating system, and its two-step pre-infusion cycle moistens and conditions ground coffee for maximum flavor extraction with perfect crema topping.
For added convenience, the appliance offers easy-to-use programming functions. Choose from two temperature settings, three strength levels, and volume--one or two cups at a time, from 1 to a full 16 ounces. Turn the rotary dial to make changes during brewing without changing the programmed setting. Plus, the steam output can be set to a certain time for filling cup after cup with the exact same amount of hot steamed or frothed milk, which means no more wasted milk. Even more, selecting from "continuous-on" or "auto-off" from one half-hour to nine hours in one-hour increments makes it possible for the unit to turn on at the programmed time and ensures it stays on for as long as it's needed. A bright 10-digit LED display dialog system gives short, simple instructions like "ready", "heating", "fill water", and "clean unit".
Other useful details include a 64-ounce removable water tank, an 8-ounce bean container, a five-level water-hardness selector, an automatic hot-water rinse cycle that cleans and pre-heats all vital brewing parts, a height-adjustable coffee spout, and an electronic water-level sensor that makes sure the machine never operates without water. Moreover, its Clearyl water-care system removes chlorine, lead, aluminum, and copper for better-tasting coffee, and a special organic additive removes almost all calcium and eliminates decalcifying altogether. The unit also provides electronic sensors that indicate when water or coffee beans need to be added, an automatic cleaning cycle indicator, a "full" indicator for the used coffee container, seven language options in the dialog system, Energy Saving mode to reduce power consumption in stand-by mode, and a separate main power switch. Accessories include a Clearyl water filter, cleaning tablets, a measuring scoop, a water-hardness indicator strip, and a DVD with detailed tips on brewing, frothing methods, and cleaning. UL listed for household use, the coffee-and-espresso center measures 16 by 11 by 13-1/2 inches and carries a limited warranty for two years or 6,000 cups, whichever comes first.
From the Manufacturer
The Impressa C9: Cafe Quality Drinks on Demand
One touch of a button is all it takes to produce cafe-quality crema coffee, espresso, cappuccino, or latte for a true bean-to-cup experience. In less than 60 seconds, the machine automatically froths or steams milk, grinds, tamps, brews, and self cleans, making it as easy to brew your favorite beverages at home as buying them at the coffee shop. It can also dispense hot water for tea or froth chocolate milk for foamy hot chocolate.
Customizable to Fit Your Taste
The Impressa C9 One Touch is fully programmable for coffee strength, cup size, and more. It also allows you to override programming functions to customize your brew any time you want. Jura-Capresso's frothXpress Plus system can automatically froth or steam milk for a variety of professional quality espresso beverages. A 14-ounce stainless steel insulated milk container adds to its convenience by keeping milk cold and ready for frothing for up to eight hours.
Save Energy and Space
Designed for energy efficiency, the main power switch ensures that zero energy is pulled when the machine is off but still plugged in, and programmable energy-saving options allow the machine to draw less energy in stand-by mode. The 64-ounce water tank and 8-ounce bean container keep the machine stocked and ready to create beverages at the touch of a button. As another helpful feature, cups can be stored on a chrome-plated storage area on top of this machine.
A Host of Features
The Impressa C9 also includes standard Jura-Capresso features, such as an adjustable conical burr grinder with six fineness settings, a separate funnel for pre-ground coffee, and the CLEARYL water filter to ensure water is free from impurities and to improve taste. This filter also eliminates the need for decalcification.
With its sleek Piano Black finish and chrome accents, the Impressa C9 One Touch automatic coffee center will be the centerpiece of your kitchen. Its versatility in creating delicious hot beverages makes it a machine you'll turn to all day long. Specifications
