| Progressive International Collection Butter Warmer Set
by Progressive International
Ceramic is the material of choice for over-the-candle warming because it holds in the heat without letting the flame burn your butter or damage the delicate texture of your sauce. These petite, white his-and-her pots hold about 3/4 cup of your favorite dip. Dainty wire stands suspend the pots at an appropriate distance from the tea light. Serves dinner or dessert fondue with panache. --Carol Gnojewski

If you're a Food Network aficionado, this set of five mini mixing bowls is just what you need to keep up with the pros. Set aside a tablespoon of nutmeg in the smallest bowl or 3 cups of flour in the largest. The middle three bowls hold 1/4, 3/4, and 1-1/2 cups, respectively. Array your ingredients in front of you for easy access, then pour and blend a la Julia Child. This is also a perfect starter set for a child--the small sizes easily fit their eager little hands. --Dana Van Nest

Product Description
Nothing mars the presentation of pearly pink shrimp more than unsightly black veins, which are in fact not veins at all, but the alimentary canals of the shrimp. Now anyone who paid any attention at all in junior high biology knows that an alimentary canal is not high on the list of good things to eat. Get rid of them easily and efficiently with this specialized tool. |
Amazon.com Review
The sharp, square teeth of the shrimp cleaner by Oxo remove the shell and devein the shrimp in one easy motion, eliminating the need to peel even the smallest shrimp. Insert the ridged shrimp cleaner into the end of the shrimp and pull. The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handles put less tension on the hands, while providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material dishwasher gaskets are constructed of, the handles are slip-proof, wet or dry, as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro |

Not the best Oxo product by A. Thompson (Harrisonburg, VA United States)  3 Stars
October 05, 2009
Oxo Good Grips makes some interesting kitchen gadgets, but I think this is not one of their finest efforts. Something about the blade - it's flexibility, the serrations, I'm not sure exactly what - make it work less effectively than it should. I got better results with the hard plastic cheapie shrimp tools, although I'm sure this should last longer.
Mine got warped in the dishwasher, so I'm trying the Cuisinart next.

Can't Recommend This Product by Sam D. (Los Angeles)  1 Stars
June 28, 2009
I bought this tool because I had a good-size quantity of jumbo shrimp (21-25/lb.) to prepare. I was very disappointed with it. Instead of making a clean cut to remove the vein, the tool's serrated edge mangled and shredded the flesh of the shrimp. And using it actually slowed the process down.
Before purchasing the Oxo Shrimp Cleaner, I had been using a paring knife for cleaning raw shrimp. After completely giving up on this product and then doing a little experimenting, my Fiskar scissors turned out to be the quickest and most efficient tool for accomplishing this task.
