Oxo Kitchenware
I am really unimpressed with this range, they are not airtight and my goods are going stale within weeks. For the price they are charging I would expect a high quality product. Don't buy them! Show details
Hands down the best Poultry Shears/ Chicken Scissors on the market – These OXO Poultry Shears are the best to butterfly a full chicken or cut into individual pieces for the BBQ smoker, oven or Air Fryer. I've used a… Read more
lot of different brands of Poultry Shears/ Chicken scissors and these OXO are by far the best quality, easy to get through bone and easy to clean. I've even started buying more pairs to give to friends and family who are always complaining they cant find good quality Poultry Shears!
This thing is so well designed. It has a fixed grill plus a removable rotating grill, which gives you 3 different sizes of holes. So much easier and… Read more
less messy than swapping grill plates. The finest one does the most delicious, silky mashed potatoes. Also great for smashed avocado and fruit puree. The bottom grill can be twisted off and removed to make cleaning easy. Handles are nice and long for leverage. Although it takes up a bit of room to store, once you've tried mashed potatoes through a ricer, you'll never look back. Potatoes that are mashed are always lumpy and tacky. I steam potatoes with the skin on until cooked, then peel the skin off and put them through the ricer while they're still warm. Add a heap of salted butter and freshly cracked black pepper for the most heavenly mash.
After more than 15 years of service, my old Breville Ikon BSK500 scales started playing up with digital readings jumping around. I have many OXO… Read more
products that I have been happy with, so when I saw the OXO 5 pound Kitchen scales advertised on the internet I checked a lot of reviews on YouTube & felt confident that it would fit my needs. I chose the basic plastic model rather than the more expensive stainless steel model. The scale measures in 1 gram increments, which is good enough for most kitchen needs. I regularly use it for measuring my espresso coffee ground doses & it gives very consistent, stable readings around 20g. The digital readout is very easy to see & the screen can be easily pulled out of the scales to allow you to use larger containers & still see the readout. The readout is held in place with magnets. The scales are easy to clean with a damp cloth & the flat design, without any grooves etc. to collect spilt flour or liquids etc., help in this respect. A useful feature, which many other scales share, is the 'Tare' function. For example, if you have a bowl on the scale, you simply press the Tare button & the scale will read zero. It is then easy to add any ingredients, without having to allow for the weight of the bowl. Once you have added the ingredient you can the press Tare again & add the next ingredient & so on. I would recommend the OXO Good Grips 5 Pound Food Scales.
works every time – I've had this can opener for a year & it never fails , it leaves a smooth edge on the can & is easy to turn the handle. Its a good quality opener.
The best tongs I have ever used – OXO Good Grips tongs are the best tongs I have ever used; the ones I purchased are the 41cm BBQ tongs (16" in the old money) so as to keep my hands… Read more
away from the blistering BBQ heat. Are they cheap? No. What they are, however, is well-engineered, solid, comfortable and designed to last.
Well-engineered because the tong arms do not mis-align like the cheap ones. Solid because the metal used is much thicker than the cheap ones. Comfortable because they have a soft silicone pad on each of the arms, which also serves as heat protection. Designed to last because of everything mentioned; they will probably outlast your BBQ.
They have a convenient locking ring at the top where the arms meet, which you push in or pull out to lock and unlock.
The only improvement I can think of would be to have the hanging ring in the centre of the locking device a bit wider; it doesn't fit my existing BBQ hanging hooks. These go on sale online occasionally, so the next time you see them on sale, grab some.
Excellent until it exploded – I was delighted with this pitter when I bought it, which was admittedly in 2021. But after two years of loyal service it exploded. I heard a muffled… Read more
bang from the kitchen, opened the drawer and there it was, in pieces. I'm thankful it didn't go off in my hand, that spring looks lethal. RIP pitter RIP.
There are better and cheaper mashers out there but not on Amazon! – I like the handle and the fact it can be used in non-stick saucepans - that is about as far as it goes. I have been looking to replace my old masher… Read more
for a while as the handle is going manky. I have generally been a really big fan of the OXO GoodGrips and have both types of potato peeler and a number of other GoodGrips items - but the masher is a real let down it was also not particularly cheap. It requires significant force to push the potato through as it does not have a bevelled end, the potato gets stuck between the teeth, when trying to bash against the pan to dislodge potato, instead of falling into the pan the potato goes everywhere making an atrocious mess! Lastly, despite putting significant amounts of effort in I had to go and blast my last mash at the end with the old masher because it was still lumpy! Good news if you are in Australia, Coles "Cook & Dine" masher is great and only costs about $5.20! (I have also written a review on productreview.com.au for this Masher)
Not fit for purpose – Purchased 9th Dec 2021 from Amazon & used occasionally (just to see if it was as bad as the last time I used it) Briefly this 'V' blade design isn't… Read more
good. The comments are based on 'trying' to slice the humble potato. The blade tends to 'tear' rather than slice...it's sharp but the design isn't at all good. The slice is then pushed forward under the machine where 'wedges' into the area containing the additional blades. Extremely frustrating to slice then stop to remove the wedged slice. (I'll try an add a photo, it maybe easier to understand)...these are my major issues & I rate this machine 'not fit for purpose' because of those issues. The other problems which are minor (but shouldn't happen) the plastic body (white) will stain, carrots will stain this unit, hate to think what beetroot would do to it. The symbols for cutting heights etc markings will be smudged/removed by a wipe with a cloth...this has never been in the dishwasher which would surley remove any markings that are remaining. I would avoid & look for something simple with a straight blade. This thing is over complex & fails in its excecution of slicing a humble potato...in fact if anyone wants to reply to this & wants this unit, I am more than happy for you to come & collect it. I'll try some photos & see how we go to help with my explanation.
I bought 1 with scale on inside correct but was 30ml out on the outside. I got a warranty replacement and its worse.17ml on the inside, 14ml on the outside.Very disappointed.
