Pfaltzgraff Pistoulet Open Stock Hand painted Water Goblet Review

Pfaltzgraff Pistoulet Open Stock Hand painted Water Goblet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I collect Pistoulet and have yet to find a practical glass or cup. I do not use these much because they are hand painted and cannot be put in the dishwasher. In addition they are very thin and fragile. I have broke several just from hand washing them. Don't bother with Pistoulet's plastic tumblers because I have not even had them for a year and they all had to be thrown out. They crack and split in the dishwasher. Then they leak and look awful. I wish Pfalzgraff would make a nice heavy tall glass and juice glasses in the Pistoulet pattern. My friend collects an older garden type pattern and has so many beautiful, practical and durable glasses.

Love the glasses; I have a number of Riedel wine glasses and thought I try the beverage glasses. They are terrific for a weekend cocktail. Beautiful design, clean and sleak also fine in the dishwasher.

Libbey 7 Piece Sangria Set Review

Libbey 7 Piece Sangria Set
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Ammendment to orginal review below: on 4/3 (about a month after buying it), the pitcher cracked...Amazon is replacing it, so hopefully it won't crack again. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt that I got a bad one; if the next one breaks, I'll change my ranking/review:
We bought this Feb. 2008 for $19.99 as part of the buy 3, get 1 free promo. This set comes with a glass pitcher that holds approx. 10 cups (80 oz or 2.5 quarts) and 6 glasses (holds approx. a little more than 1 cup/8 oz).
You can't use boiling water to make iced tea with this and it's NOT dishwasher safe.
We just wanted a glass pitcher (getting rid of all plastic in the house) and the bonus were the glasses. It's a great deal, especially when you see what buying a pitcher a-la-carte costs. What made it an even better deal was combining it with my other needed kitchen item purchases via the amazon "buy 4 for 3" promo.
Ordering tip: if you're going to buy a bunch of items, split them in separate orders and put all the lower priced items together so you can get (at least) one of the more expensive items for free. By doing so, I got one $18 item free, instead of two $3.99 items free. Of course, just make sure both shipments are more than $25 for free S&H. I just made sure I bought some other needed items that weren't part of the promo! These 4-for-3 deals are AWESOME, especially when combined w/ FREE S&H and no sales tax! Way to go Amazon!

Factory-Reconditioned Waring JEX328FR Health Juice Extractor Review

Factory-Reconditioned Waring JEX328FR Health Juice Extractor
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've wanted a juicer for a long time, but could never really justify the expense, knowing that I'd very likely quickly tire of the maintenance involved. When I saw this juicer for under $25, it seemed like the perfect opportunity.
When I opened the box, I was immediately impressed with the unit's solid construction. You can see right away that this isn't a plastic piece of junk that's going to break righ away.
With the unit's first use, I juiced: cabbage, kale, spinach, carrots, onions and peppers. The unit - while not as powerful as more expensive models, I'm sure - juiced up everything with no hesitation. I would describe the pulp to be damp, but not what I'd call really wet.
I dreaded the juicer clean-up process that I'd heard so much about. Disassembly of the unit is a breeze. There are basically three main parts to remove and it takes all of thirty-seconds. No problem.
If there's one thing I could change, it would be a better designed pulp-catcher that would allow a bag to be used. This is only a minor gripe and has in no way made me regret the purchase.
If you are a casual juicer, looking to get your feet wet without spending a ton of money, this would be a perfect choice. I'm still amazed that I got this for under $25 and I'd recommend it without hesitation.
