Buy one set and never another
This is a great solution for space-restricted kitchens. One set of these pyrex dishes and you can bake or cook and go to the fridge to store. So no need to have a pile of plastic storage ware. Also, plastic stains with tomato sauce and berries. These glass dishes are stain-proof. And you can microwave them; I don't like microwaving plastic because it can melt.
Excellent Assortment
Great variety of sizes, great value, and they work really good too.
really nice
got these to take place of the plastic storing containers.this is a really good product.looks nice, seals good, washes good.what more can you ask?i would buy these again.

The FoodSaver Premier Series V1205 Vacuum Sealing Kit from Tilia keeps food fresh up to five times longer, prevents freezer burn, and locks out air and moisture. Easy to use, the home-vacuum system removes the oxygen from food items and seals bags and canisters with a one-touch system. A three-level seal control allows for varying seal times--shorter for dry foods and longer for moist foods. Hands-free operation ensures that the machine shuts off automatically, while the instant seal button stops the vacuum process to prevent delicate items from being crushed. An accessory port enables vacuum-sealing canisters, bottle stoppers, and universal lids to be attached. The handy antibacterial drip tray can be washed in the dishwasher for easier cleanup.

Great Product - Saves Money
I've really been enjoying my food saver.I didn't really think it would save money overall but it defintely is.It keeps meat and vegetables very fresh tasting even after a significant time in the freezer.I don't have to throw away more pork chops that got lost in the bottom of the freezer and suffered significant freezer burn.I also find you can re-use the bags (from non raw meat storage) if you cut them appropriately so that's not a total waste either.Great product, helps me save money and is easy to use and pretty minimal storage size too.

Doesn't Last
I am now on my 3rd foodsaver in six or seven years. While they are working properly they are great. After about two years, they always seem to stop drawing a vaccuum. The vaccuum pump will run and run but it will not draw a vaccuum. With all the freezing my family does we will continue to keep replacing them because the quality of the vegetables is extended by well over a year. It's worth it to us to replace them every two years. I just wish Tilia would build one at reasonable price that would last about five years.

Died after three weeks
For the first three weeks I was very happy with this product. It sealed both bags and canisters quickly and efficiently.

This really is just OK
I have been deciding whether to buy this for months. I bring my lunch to work every day and was already using Gladware, tupperware etc.When this finally arrived I was initiailly impressed but I noticed right away tht it's "bulky" and rather large, on the outside only.
Very effective lunch container
Unlike many reviewers for this product, I'm a dedicated bring-your-own lunch person -- I've been making my own lunches since college. I used to bring lunch in a Ziploc bag or sealed plastic container, and for a while I had a lightly-insulated soft lunch"box". Usually I didn't have trouble, but sometimes things would leak or get squashed. When I started riding my bike to work and going all over the place on public transit, I really wanted something that would never leak out of its container, and would be easy to carry in a backpack or by hand. I also needed something that would hold quite a bit of food because I tend to get hungry in the afternoon and eating work-supplied popcorn and soda is not how I want to get my calories.
Not at all what I'd hoped
Well, it turned out not to be lined with stainless steel--it just has a stainless steel exterior; the inside and all of the containers and their lids are cheapo plastic which can't be microwaved or put in the dishwasher.

foodsaver saviors
Foodsavers are the best invention of the 20th century along with the foodsaver bags, especially up here in Alaska where we put away a lot of meat and fish.

Food Saver Rolls
I like to save money by buying in bulk and portioning out foods for each meal.It cuts down on defrosting time of chicken, fish, steak, hamburger, etc., by wrapping individually instead of in one big lump. My 4 yr. old Tilia Food Saver is still working fantastic at keeping freezer burn off my frozen meats and fish. I'm thinking about upgrading to a newer Tilia but just can't discard a perfectly good machine yet.

Great price for these rolls
You can't beat this price for these rolls. If you own the machine, you'll want more of the bags to seal and store, for sure. This is the best price I could find on this product.

These Are Okay, But I Like the 11" Better
The basic concept appears sound.Smaller foods need smaller width bags.However, in practice we rarely use the 8 inch width.There are a few things that fit better in the 8 inch width, but considering that almost everything that we routinely use in the kitchen will fit in the 11 inch width, we tend to use that width most of the time.
rolls vs. bags
The 8x11.5" quart bags are more convenient to use, but I figured the 8" x 22' rolls would be more cost-effective.As it turns out, the rolls (at $18.69 for 44 bags' worth - assuming a foot per use) are slightly more expensive than the bags (at $18 for 48), so you might as well get the bags.As for being able to use more or less as needed, I've found that I can re-seal or re-use the bags, thus leaving me an assortment of available sizes when I've used their previous contents.It is occasionally useful to have larger sizes, so I would recommend purchasing the bags in the quart size & the rolls in the larger 11" x 18' to give a wide range of useful applications. ...

Doesn'tVacuum Seal Very Well
I recieved the FoodSaver Vaccuum Seal system as a gift along with two 11" continous roll bags.They worked great but were kind of big for some of the food that I was trying to vacuum and seal so I bought the premade package of 48 quart size bags.I have had nothing but issues with those bags since I got them.They will not vacuum and seal correctly.When I make my own bag with the continious roll material the vacuum and seal works great but not with the quart bags.Even when I have tried both types on the same night, the continious self made bag works the quart bag does not.The vacuum system works well but the quart bags do not.They look and feel like they are made from the same material.The only difference is that the quart bags are about half the width of the 11" bags and they don't stretch across the whole vacuum seal area like the 11" bags do but the manufacturer does mark-off where the optimum vacuum seal area is so you can make sure your bag covers that area and the quart bag does stretch across that area but still will not vacuum and seal.I am just going to buy the 11" roll and make my own bags.

Drinks stay hot or cold for up to seven hours in this insulated, double-walled, stainless-steel travel mug from OXO. Plus, three silicone seals in the lid opening prevent leaks and drips from spoiling clothes on the way to work. One hand is all that’s needed to operate this mug: a button in the middle of the lid opens the drinking seal (a red background alerts the user to its open position); and then closes the device. Letting a few seconds lapse before closing will allow liquid in the spout area to drain back inside, thus preventing drips. Read more

Unhygienic lid design!!
I loved this cup when I first purchased it. I'd scoured the internet and stores for a no-spill thermal cup, and thought I'd finally found the perfect one. However, after a few months of use, I noticed I could hear liquid trapped in the lid. If I shook the lid violently, I could get out some drops of the trapped liquid, but never all of it. I also noticed that the the lid would smell awful at the end of a day's use and really demanded washing immediately after use (which in my mind, defeats the purpose of the "travel" mug).
oxo mug - super awesome!
best mug ever if you have a coffee spilling problem!even if you dump it upside down, it WILL NOT SPILL!!! amazing and highly recommended

Hard to clean
The cap may seal well but the trade-off is that it's hard to clean.I noticed coffee crud building up in hard to reach areas.After cleaning it, I couldn't towel dry the inside parts andthe water almost never completely dried because no matter what angle I left it at, the water formed a little pool that wouldn't evaporate overnight.Each morning I could shake the cap and hear & see water droplets. I suppose a blast from an air compressor might have done the trick.Anyhow,I threw the mug out today after I noticed bits of something coming out of the cap.I think it is coffee scum buildup, but my wife says its rubbery (is there a hidden gasket?)I recommend looking elsewhere for a simple, easy-to-maintain, keep-my-coffee-hot thermos.It might not seal as well, but it probably won't put dried coffee remains in your favorite drink. ...

Stain Shield Works
I have had my set for several years and haven't had any problems. The stain sheild works great especially if you microwave alot. I eat a lot of pasta with red sauce and not stains. The different sizes fit well in the new style lunch boxes. I got rid of all my old Tupperware and replaced them with Rubbermaid and Snapware products. If you have a problem with any item, you can mail it back to Rubbermaid and they will replace it.

Experience Speaks
I'm not sure why "Grass Tiger" had such bad results with this product line.I bought a set for myself and both my Mom and mother-in-law about 3 years ago and we've all enjoyed ours.I was only on this web site to order another batch for me!Love it!

The Perfect Tear paper towel holder eliminates waste by allowing exactly the desired number of paper towel sheets to be torn off the roll with just one hand. The secret lies in the secure, horizontally wall-mounted base and the ratchet system inside the towel holder. By allowing the roll to make incremental turns in just one direction, the ratchet holds the roll steady during pulling and tearing, thus preventing unraveling. Read more

One Handed Wonder
I own 2 of the countertop model and love them.When I saw this--I had to get more.Works like a charm.I was able to mount vertically but had to add a plastic disc to bottom of spindle to keep towels from unraveling off roll.

Attractive and Functional
This truly is the best paper towel holder/dispenser I've ever used.For kitchen, bath, or workroom, the easy tear, one hand operation is extremely convenient.The description is dead on, it's very attractive and just as easy to install as any other.So, if you're looking for appearance and functionality, this is well worth the very reasonable price.

The ideal kitchen accessory
Like pretty much everyone else here, I am totally pleased with this towel holder. It has simple installation, it looks clean and modern, you really can dispense towels with one hand (and it really isn't that noisy -- I have skittish cats and they got used to it right away), and my favorite part is that you attach the towel roll by just sliding it along the rod, rather than having to pull apart two sides to hold it up, like with a lot of other towel dispensers. This makes refilling your supply super simple. And, as others have noted, the price is amazing. Get one! ... Read more

Fast for marinating....
I have only used it a few times so far but it has always worked well. I do only hand wash it after reading previous reviews so that could be helping it stay in good shape. It seems like I never have alot of time when I am ready to grill so this product works well for time saving. It gives the meat great flavor in a short amount of time marinating.

Great concept, but canister needs to be redesigned.
I have had four of these, and three have failed.The first two developed cracks, and I suspect that the dishwasher, in which I only washed the bottom part of the marinator as advised, warped and weakened them.After buying two more, the first two having been relegated to the potting shed as seed-starters, I have handled them with kid gloves so to speak, (no dishwasher), and the seal on one fails to hold for even a few hours.So far, so good with the fourth one.Whoopee. These are not cheap items, and even if they were less costly, a 75% failure rate is quite unacceptable.If they really functioned as they should, they would be fabulous for not only marinating in short order, but storing other items as well.All the round canisters and the wide-mouth jar sealer work exceedingly well, but I'll not buy any more "marinators" until there is a successful improvement in design.

A must have item
When it comes to infusing flavor and marinting foods this is a must have item.It quickly infuses flavors without some of the drawbacks of long term exposure of some marinades. Acids and salts can breakdown foods over time and change the texture, composition and taste.This handy item does the job quickly and preserves the fresh flavors of both the primary food (meat, fish, poultry) and the fresh ingrediants used in the marinade.For summer BBQ is is the ticket for keeping foods moist.Instead of brining cut up chicken for hours try 1/2 in the marinator, then on to the grill. Marinating vegitables for the grill also works excellent and is quick and easy. ... Read more

Love them, but cracking is definitely an issue!
I have been using Foodsaver canisters for just over one year now, and I own quite a few, of varying sizes.A good percentage of them have cracked over that period of time.(I hand wash the bottoms, wipe out the lids as directed, no temperature extremes, no abuse.They just crack in my pantry.)Normally, experiencing this (repeatedly) would be enough for me to swear off a product and never mess with it again, but when they're working, they work really well, and I have to say that Tilia's customer service stands behind these canisters.They have cheerfully replaced every single one that's mysteriously cracked. (I did not ask them to replace the one my husband dropped and destroyed!)Because they've given me no hassles about replacing their canisters, I have little hesitation about continuing to purchase their products.My recommendation is to keep a record somewhere of the date and place of purchase for your canisters; they'll want this information if you call for a replacement.The warranty period is one year; when they send a replacement, it's guaranteed for a year too.
foodsaver cannister
I was very unhappy with this product.I ordered several cannisters and 3 out of 5 cracked after the first use!!!I did everything that they recommended and they all cracked in the same manner.The people at Foodsaver were very happy to replace them because they are under "warranty" but I am surprised to see how fragile this product is.FYI, they will not warranty the products sold on E-Bay.I should have listened to the reviews and not taken a chance on this product.

No problems for over a year
I don't know how I ever got by without a Foodsaver before.I bought mine over a year ago, along with extra canisters, and I've had no problems so far.I was surprised to see so many reviews about cracked containers - all of mine are fine, and I use them often!I only handwash them, like the directions say, so maybe that's helped prolong their life.The whole system is great; the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it's so expensive (accessories too)! ...

For those who cook large quantities of food for storage, FoodSaver vacuum packaging systems offer excellent protection against food spoilage and freezer burn. This jar sealer attachment fits on pint- and quart-sized Mason jars and is for use with any FoodSaver machine that has an accessory port. The lid forms a tight seal on Mason jars while tubing (sold separately) inserts through the top and removes air from the jar with the help of a FoodSaver machine. The jar sealer works equally as well in packaging liquid foods, such as jams, sauces, or mustard, as it does for dry goods, such as brown sugar or spices. The sealer can even re-seal the same container multiple times (in case someone keeps dipping into the stored jars of raspberry jam). Vacuum packaging with this lid can keep food fresh three to five times longer than keeping it in a plastic food storage container in the refrigerator; however, it is a different process from canning and should not be confused with traditional canning methods.

• Compatible with FoodSaver vacuum packaging systems
• Lid fits all pint- and quart-sized Mason jars

• Great for sealing sauces, jams, liquids, and dry goods

WORKS GREAT IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE IT
This jar sealer is a necessity if you have a Foodsaver!Much cheaper than using those expensive canisters and it keeps your food fresh!There's nothing better than opening a jar and hearing the whoosh of air going in!Lets you know it's fresh!For all of those reviewers who had problems with it sealing, I have a tip that should eliminate those sealing problems.When you seal the jar put TWO mason lids on top, one on top of the other.Then seal the jar.The top lid should pop right off and the bottom lid will be vacuumed tight and secure! (If the top lid doesn't come off right away, just give it a few hours and it will come loose.)Not sure why it works this way, but it does!For those jars that you seal for longer than a week I would recommend checking the seal every once and a while.I have had a jar lose it's vacuum a time a two. BUT a great majority of the time it remains sealed.Highly recommend!

Ineffective
I had hoped to use this with Mason jars to greatly expand my available vacuum storage for crushable/bulk items, without paying the high price for the containers. But it doesn't actually work, even when you think it does.

Virtually unbreakable, this lightweight, vacuum-insulated thermos travels to work or your favorite recreation spot. On arrival, and for hours afterward, coffee, tea, or soup will still be hot. Or lemonade, pasta salad, or a sports drink will still be chilled. Compact (7 inches high) and shapely, this thermos has a "waist" for firm gripping indented in its satin-finish exterior and tough, nonslip, black plastic top and bottom. There's a choice of two twist tops, one for coffee and another, with a stainless steel strainer, for tea--each has a sip-hole, and a cap twists onto either to prevent spills. Fine threading ensures tops and cap seal tightly, while the smooth interior cleans with sponge or cloth. Preheating or prechilling with hot or cold water is recommended. Read more

"Bread box" is a term your grandmother knows, though her bread box was most likely tin. This one is plastic, but the principle is the same: To stay fresh, bread needs air--but not too much. Vents in this keeper allow proper circulation. The plastic slicing guide makes uniform slicing easy--starting at about a half-inch in thickness. The guide, however, accommodates a loaf only 5 inches wide, 1-1/4 inches narrower than the keeper accommodates. A wider loaf could be laid on its side for slicing, but the result might be less certain. Read more

• Great storage keeper for bread
• Takes up little room on the counter top

Great Product!
I never thought there would be a time when such a simple looking item could be so priceless! It's the perfect answer to fresh bread and great looks on the counter. It surely is better than having those tons of plastic bags laying around, what a mess that can be! I found a trick that works great. I let the bread cool down just enough to where it's almost cold then in it goes to the bread keeper and viola, worked perfect and fresh bread - was better than I had expected it to be and what made it better was the no fuss no mess!! When the bread keeper is empty it's a snap to clean it out with warm soapy water and let it air dry on the dish rack. I kept the box to store the container in when it's not being used, it's small enough that I can put the item in my pantry and it doesn't take up any room. I'll surely be getting another one of these for a holiday gift (or two). This was surely a great investment and well worth the price!

A bit overpriced for what it is, but a great and necessary tool!
This product is inexpensive plastic: it consists of two clear pieces in which to store a loaf of bread and a white piece that is used as a cutting/slicing guide. Pretty straightforward, and consisting of probably a dime's worth of plastic for the whole thing. It's a very useful tool for the home bread maker, as it makes for better slicing of bread in to fairly-equally sized slices than using a knife alone (and "eyeballing it"). If you have a bread machine, you need one of these. Period.

I like the bread cutter.
I make bread because I have a son who is allergic to wheat and dairy.The bread slicer allows me to slice straighter and thinner pieces of bread which is great - I get more pieces out of a loaf and they look better.It works fine but I wish the slicer was a little more sturdy.Truthfully I purchased this product for the slicer not the bread keeper.The bread keeper works O.K., I especially like it when we travel because it keeps the bread from getting crushed, but gets smaller as we use up a loaf.I don't love the air holes in the bread keeper, it is too much air for rice bread and tends to allow it to dry out too quickly, but it would probably work better for wheat bread.For the price, this was a good purchase, plus I couldn't find a better bread slicer even at a higher price. ...

The FoodSaver Premier Series V1205 Vacuum Sealing Kit from Tilia keeps food fresh up to five times longer, prevents freezer burn, and locks out air and moisture. Easy to use, the home-vacuum system removes the oxygen from food items and seals bags and canisters with a one-touch system. A three-level seal control allows for varying seal times--shorter for dry foods and longer for moist foods. Hands-free operation ensures that the machine shuts off automatically, while the instant seal button stops the vacuum process to prevent delicate items from being crushed. An accessory port enables vacuum-sealing canisters, bottle stoppers, and universal lids to be attached. The handy antibacterial drip tray can be washed in the dishwasher for easier cleanup.

Foodsaver Warranty
Beware Foodsaver warranty.Defective new products are given the runaround, foodsaver will not replace or repair so far!!
Good Buy & Then Some
I have a large garden and can never eat, give away everything we have so the vaccum sealing kit has been a life saver. Our freezer is now full and we can enjoy are garden all year long.
LUV IT !
I am well satisfied with this product.The ONLY hesitation I have is that I have to be EXTREMELY careful when vac-packing meats - you DO NOT want any juice to get in the tubing and subsequently, the motor!

Editorial Review

This handy knife bar keeps cutlery within the chef’s reach above a busy prep station but still safely out of reach of little hands. The 20-inch bar is long enough to hold an entire collection of kitchen knives and is ¾ inch wide and 2 inches thick for supporting wider blades, such as cleavers. The bar is magnetic to securely hold knives, but is encased in 18/10 stainless-steel to lend an attractive accent to your kitchen. Screws for mounting the bar are included. Read more

FANTASTIC!
We looked in all the local brick and mortar stores for a quality holder with no luck.
Makes working in the kitchen so much easier
This is one of the best purchases I've made in a long time. I tend to do a lot of food preparation and having the knife holder makes it so much faster & simpler. I can see all my knives at a glance and choose the best one.Plus I'm not grossed out thinking of all the bacteria lurking in the knife block anymore.

Just what I wanted!
