Customer Reviews of Kamenstein 20 Jar Revolving Spice Tower
Customer Rating:   Summary: Design good, spices not so good Comment: I have been wanting a revolving spice rack for a while now, since my spice cupboard was overflowing and I wanted to organize them a little better near my cooking space. With this in mind, I went to my local Bed Bath and Beyond to check out their offerings. I liked the design of this, and after looking at the display model and saw what spices were included decided to go ahead and purchase. When I brought it home, I noticed that the spices pictured on the box and on the display model were NOT what was included in my box. This wasn't a huge deal, since I have most of these spices anyway, but somewhat annoying. For example, one that I assumed by the box would be included was whole allspice, which is a fairly pricey spice. Not here. Another annoyance was that the labels on the box and display model were more attractive than the huge, san serif block letters on the tops of the jars that I received. A little thing, maybe, but irritating to me. When looking at the material that came in the box, there was a disclaimer that the spices included may vary from the image on the box. Fair enough, but why did the display model include them? Another downside was that the spices I did get were not very fresh. I chucked some of them and replaced with what I already had on hand. Any time you buy something like this, of course you are going to get spices you don't use. But for them to be stale is pretty bad. Basically I ended up tossing or replacing quite a few of the spices on the rack, since several of them I don't consider "everyday use" spices. Caraway seed, mustard seed, savory? But not cinnamon, cumin or sage. Pizza seasoning AND Italian seasoning? Seems kind of redundant. It would be helpful if the manufacturer included replacement labels with other spices so that you could customize the jars to your liking. Or better yet, a few empty jars! Perhaps I'm being overly picky, but I wish I could have gotten a version with no spices at all that I could just fill myself with what I actually use. Maybe it's me, but I think these type of things need to be functional as well as attractive. Aside from all this, the rack is quite nice in design. I like the size and the shape of the jars, and the stainless steel looks nice in my kitchen. It seems as though it will be easier to clean than many of the others I've looked at. I think it will serve its purpose well, once I finish customizing it. Customer Rating: Summary: came broken Comment: this spice tower is the epitemy of bad design. The vertical pieces are barely tack welded on, so they broke easily. Even after I fix it, it is still going to be unbalanced and wobbly. The spice selection were strange; no sage?? This item is an example of how not to engineer something. Save your money, but something else. Customer Rating: Summary: Love it! Comment: I bought this as a gift for my sister. She loved it and I got jealous so I bought myself one! What a great thing! It has so many spices, the crome goes with all my stainless steel in the kitchen. The jars are easy to take out and put back in. Nicely labled so you know what everything is. Great spice rack!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Nice assortment of spices Comment: I bought this for my mother's birthday. She loves it! The variety of spices is great and the spice rack itself is very cool and sleek looking. Customer Rating: Summary: Handsome and Functional Comment: I think it's a great looking product that has worked perfectly.

Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers Added features such as ice making and drinks dispensers can all add to the appeal of certain models. Ice making is an option on many American style fridge-freezers, sometimes available without opening the door, as are cold water dispensers. Zoned models offer several storage areas, all at different temperatures, designed to keep a variety of foods fresh for longer. Most manufacturers now offer adjustable shelf heights and storage units which simplify food storage. Choosing Appliance -> Built-in Ovens Keen cooks may want to take advantage of multi-function ovens - usually aimed at the top end of the market. As well as traditional cooking, fan or fan-assisted cooking and grilling, these ovens offer up to nine further functions. These include: Top element only (browning), bottom element (final cooking of pastry dishes or pizzas), fan and bottom element (delicate cooking), fan only (thawing).
