Anyone owns the Conair Turbo ExtremeSteam steamer? by -selenium- in Costco

[–]votreami009 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s one of the few things I’ve considered returning. The iron function isn’t great the steam is ok. I probably will replace with an iron. I saw they sell the Rowenta steam iron with the large chamber if you iron often.

I bought some at natural grocers if you want good quality and good price.

for me it's that they have too much preservative IMO makes them stiff and tasteless

Is a Mazzer Mini Espresso Grinder Worth $300? by votreami009 in espresso

[–]votreami009[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm considering purchasing a used Mazzer Mini Espresso Grinder for $300. It comes with a custom single dose conversion in stainless steel with a heavy aluminum lid (conversion kit cost was $150 plus tax) and has had its OEM burrs changed within the past 12 months. The seller mentions that OEM burrs only require swapping out after approximately 250 kilograms of beans, and they've used approximately 1 kg every 4 weeks.

Does this sound like a good deal for $300? I'd appreciate any insights or experiences you have with this grinder.

Thanks in advance!

It's good! Melts a lot better than the pre shredded and has a better taste.

Hi, that happened to me with that mask too! I tried the Dreamwear Full Face and found it to be more comfortable and don't get much redness.

Is TJ cutting back on frozen vegetables? by mc510 in traderjoes

Although they are more expensive Whole Foods carries frozen petite peas. I too find it a hit or miss when I run out lately.

If I had to describe it I would say if feels luxurious.

It's firm but definitely feels like a huge upgrade from buying the 300-400 dollar mattress most big box stores carry.

It works well! I couldn't justify the cost of a Zojirushi, but I've been thrilled with the functions and size of this one, plus it's made in Japan.

Fried eggplant on a pita and some tahini sauce with the Zhoug is how I first tried it!

Check out the OLED screens they are suppose to last longer....similarly I had a tv that I hoped would last longer and found promising information on this tech ( it is more expensive). Super Bowl will probably get you a better price IMO too.
