The water reservoir, electronic timer with audible ready signal combined with the egg poaching dish, measuring cup and egg piercer makes cooking eggs worry free .

KitchenAid Countertop Oven
We've got a Cuisinart oven that we like for similar things, but we really like the look of the red KitchenAid Countertop Oven. For everything from baking a whole chicken to toasting bagels, this has large easy-to-read knobs to set the precise cooking function, temperature, and time. Choose to bake, broil, toast, or warm with temperatures up to 450 degrees F. A convenient indicator light glows red to show when the oven is in use. The unit's rugged, heavy-gauge steel broil pan provides long-lasting durability, and its Wave-Rack oven rack lets air circulate around six slices at once, ensuring evenly toasted bread.

simplehuman Sensor Soap Pump Arrives for Review
We've received the new simplehuman Senseo Soap Pump and will be testing it against our older - sensorless - simplehuman Precision Soap Pump. The sensor soap pump dispenses soap touch-free to help avoid cross-contamination. All you need to do is simply place your hand under the sensor to dispense soap automatically. An optional LED light timer blinks for 20 seconds to indicate how long to lather for germ-free hands, and the simplehuman Sensor Soap Pump features four volume settings that allow the pump to dispense preset amounts of soap or lotion. Operates on 4 AA batteries (not included).
We'll have a full review of our thoughts and impressions soon.

Silicone Crepe Spatula
It looks like a machete, but it's a spatula specially designed for flipping crepes, pancakes, and eggs. The blade supposedly slides under the crepe easily and you flip easily with a twist of the wrist. Sounds to me like something that might take some practice, though.

Zyliss Safety Rail-Guided Mandoline
If you are always afraid of chopping off your fingers, when you are cutting fruits and vegetables, this mandoline is all about safety. The mandoline comes with six blades. A safety button locks in the blades, so they can't move out of place. The food holder slides up and down on the mandoline’s grooved rail, which keeps the motion controlled and on track. Food stays secured with the food guide, which pushes food through the holder and grips it with its sharp teeth.

Vollrath Co. Cookie Sheet

Reveo MariVac Food Tumbler
We have a vacuum marinator and it seems to work pretty well, but this one also tumbles:
Marinates meats, poultry, fish, veggies, tofu, fruit in just 5 to 20 minutes and does a better job than 24 hours of pan or bag soak marination. The Patent-pending MariVac process uses a commercial-grade vacuum pump, which removes the air from the barrel causing the food's fibers to relax and stretch open to absorb substantially more marinade than pan soaking. Then the tumbling action massages and works the marinade deep into the food for moist fall-off -the-fork tender flavorful results.

DeLonghi Extra Large Digital Dual Zone Deep Fryer
If you are looking to do some frying, this deep fryer seems to have it all.
For cooking tasty fried foods quickly and easily, this deep fryer uses the same frying technology found in commercial fryers. Dual Zone technology, located beneath the heating element, reduces odor, keeps oil clean, and prevents food from burning, while its extra-large 3-pound (4-liter) food capacity fries food evenly and completely every time. In addition, an adjustable thermostat with an indicator light provides the control needed to fry foods according to individual preferences. And to prevent the release of oil vapors and odors in the kitchen, a permanent mesh filter is built into the unit's stainless-steel lid.
The deep fryer's ingenious oil-drain system makes draining and recycling cooking oil easy. Simply open the door on the front of the unit and drain oil through the tube into a storage container. The unit also provides an array of features designed towards safe operation: a removable cool-touch handle for lifting or lowering the frying basket, a magnetic cord with a patented condensation shield that detaches from the fryer if accidentally pulled; and a viewing window for monitoring the entire frying process at a glance. The heating element and permanent mesh filter are removable, and the bowl, frying basket, and lid clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. Housed in durable brushed stainless steel with a no-print finish, the deep fryer measures 17-1/2 by 7 by 11-3/5 inches and carries a one-year warranty.
