I’d like to see a 2021 update to see what products you’re still using from 2017!

Youu are the first person I've seen do a 'many years later review of things I've bought' video, it's interesting as here's so much rubbish we buy and never use again, for my friend it's sandwich toasters.

the pencil sharpener one, once the vegetable gets about 3/4 of the way down you can't use it any more without cutting yourself (a fork gets a little more out of it but not by much) but they have a newer version where you kind of stab it onto a small spiked plate and crank forward like a meat grinder. its a lot bigger and takes up more space but it uses the whole vegetable and is easier to use.

Dan J I have that one and find that if your vegetable is even slightly crooked the spiked plate doesn’t work.

I subscribed to your channel for a couple years, but it's my first time seeing this review. It's 2021 and I love seeing how far you've come.

with all these products that make your life easier, your life must be AMAZING! you probably never spill soda, there's probably miraculous light that just turns on when you need it to, your glasses never fall off your head, you can probably make ANYTHING in the kitchen.... i am SOOOO envious.

Catch caddy's have become so "accepted" that there's generic knock off's of them at Walmart and the like. I know in my car that trying to get underneath the drivers seat that can only tilt directions is a nightmare and anything that goes down the side without the caddy is just *gone* unless I get in the backseat and crawl around underneath it hoping for the best.

Louis: They do if you heat it in the oven first.

we used to have that kitchen cabinet shelf insert. faced the same problems, luckily we usually have a ton of spice shakers that fit perfectly.

It’s scary how everything I own in my house I see in yours! We could swap houses and be very comfortable knowing where everything is and what it is.

"Freaking Reviews" great job as always!

How does the strainer work on pots/pans? I would think that would be the more common use than bowls.

When I saw you make cooked round eggs with the stonewave I thought, wait a minute...so I tried that with my stone onion-soup cookware which are the exact same size. It worked too.

I have the foam fill ins for the car seats, then I saw the catch caddy. If I didn’t have the foam, but the catch caddy looks great...extra storage and less lost items. I can’t even begin to say how many things I’ve lost under my car seat and had to look for several times before finding them! I had a pair of magnetic sunglasses which attached to my reading specs. But they were slim and attached to the seat gliding rails in a very secluded spot. I was sick over losing them, as they were expensive. But, one night on my evening commute home, I reached down between the seat and door and retrieved them! I was at a stop light and they were on my mind. I was actually on my way to the optician’s office to buy another pair, when I found them! So, having something to keep items from falling between you counsels and car seats, is very helpful! Catch caddy looks like a winner! Love FR reviews! Side sockets are pretty good. We use them in the kitchen for multiple appliances. The plugs don’t stick out so far and the cords run sideways making your countertop a bit more organized. Just got the tiered spice rack, which isn’t perfect, but way better than having a shelf full of slices you can’t even see. Plus the tiered shelves are expandable. We also have a larger one for cans in our pantry, which is SO much better than those snap together can holders where your cans roll out. You can’t see what you have and every time those heavy cans drop down, when you take one out, it jiggles the snap together holder and it falls apart. What a pain to put it back together. Don’t get one!

These videos are great and honest, I always wonder if these even work

I have an orgreenic and a red copper pan and use them all the time. No build up issues for me. I also use the vegetti all the time as well. Those products held up and worked very well for me. I also have the spice shelf and it’s not really great for making things easier to get to, but it makes it so I can shove more stuff into my cabinet.

I'm currently on a low carb diet and the the zoodlemaker you had is a life saver! Probably the best thing I have. Only downside for me was trying to get some zucchini out of the blade while cleaning. Very hard to reach

Looking at those LEDs on the side socket, you got the one with a surge suppressor. Most of us don't know how often those things save small appliances. Side socket type probably don't stop a huge surge, but hey, might help. The secret of the green skillet or copper is how you care for it. No Pam, No dish washers, No excessive stove top heat. You failed to point out that it isn't scratched up in 7 years like the old Teflon types. Or is it scratched? Keep up the good work, I subscribed today.

Just playing bro I really do enjoy your videos! Seriously keep up the good work!

My Orgreenic Pan is still as slick as snot. 8yrs old. You cannot use anything but a wash cloth or a plastic scrubber on that surface. I regularly sew together 6-7 (replacing as necessary) layers of used dryer sheets and use that homemade scrubby-thingy to scrub my nonstick pots and pans, Corning Ware and Pyrex glass bakeware, baking sheets, plates and glasses and I never have a problem with them. They're all very old and get A LOT of use. The scrubbers do an excellent job of removing burnt-on grease and oil, and with minimal effort - the key strategy is to use a couple of drops of dish soap on a near dry or wrung out scrubby-thingy applying it to the mess, wash something else and come back to it. When I have worked as a keeper in other people's homes I have successfully removed their old bond on Greece from many years in the same way, only when it's years old, you must first run hot water over the pan and then apply the dish soap, let it set a few minutes BUT get to scrubbing on it before the pan gets cooled off!

how do you get all these products to review, do you have a website that you used to contact the manufacturers??

I like this video. It is to the point and I really do want to know what still works and what doesn't a few years later.

I used my Orgreenic pan for 5 years and only recently threw it away because the coating was starting to come off and the finish had been cut through somehow. I used it every time I cooked and loved it

I have the catch caddy for my car too! I got mine for $1.99 (one of the few more expensive items) at the 99 cent store. Mine mostly gets used as a spot for small trash, gas station receipts, etc.

The Stonewave is basically a miniature Tajine..

Hey thanks Andy!

Bought one of those green skillets too, it's a glorified silver stone product & more expensive. I still have to use oil or the eggs stick. Have had better luck with the surface clean up but you can only use wood or plastic utensils. I've used it for a few yrs. but won't buy another one, not cost effective. I often wonder what's the composition of the green surface? New to the channel, luv the reviews. Thanks.

Even after I've used baking soda and scrubbed it clean and washed it, I do the seasoning all over again and it STILL sticks. The. Worst. Skillet. Ever.

The infomercial got me but I only bought the small pan for cooking eggs and such and it chipped even though they claim the products are chip free. They even showed a electric hand cake beater/mixer being used in the pan w/ no chips or scratches as well as a metal fork, knife going back and forth over the surface along w/ a metal spoon used to stir some food in the pan. All w/ no chipping or scratching which they guaranteen will not happen but my pan scratched. Lies all lies. Was also at a Goodwill either last year or this year and someone donated one w/ a school in it for three or four dollars. I told the manager about the chip just in case someone didn't see it and she said she did not miss it and that they were going to sell it anyway.

A decent "As seen on TV" product is maybe what... 1 in 10? If that. You should review some cool kitchen gadgets and whatnot from amazon.

We did a thing in my school when I was in 4th grade (2011) where we were supposed to invent something that would fix a problem. I did something similar to the catch caddy but slightly more basic.

I saw your China cabinet that you mentioned in another video. I have the exact same one. Funny to see it somewhere else.

Nanny Boo that’s what bothers me, that chemical cocktail wasn’t ever good for cleaning. All that fizzing dose nothing for actual cleaning... assuming the distilled white vinegar (weak acetic acid) is fully reacted with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) the products are: Sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide none of which are very good cleaners. People started associating the bubbling reaction with cleaning without having a basic sense of chemistry. It’s just another stupid home “cleaning” remedy that’s unfortunately spreading like wildfire among the uniformed. Scrubbing with baking soda works because it’s a rather strong abrasive meaning it physically scrapes off buildup. You would be better off just mixing it with Watertown form a paste and use the vinegar somewhere it won’t go completely to waste.

Actually vinegar is a very good cleaner. You can clean from build up soap to grease with vinegar and adding baking soda gives a fine abrasion to the mix which also helps to clean. The reaction releases bubbles and this helps to lift any build up. It's a classical for a reason, it's a FACT it works very well to clean most surfaces in a household.

The stone wave works because it's not new. That exact design has been around since nearly the middle ages. There is an 18th century historical cooking show on KZread that uses one with the same design and they sell it on sites geared for early American reenactment. It's just a ceramic sauce pot.

Aldi's has a great real non stick pan 12.5 inches wide by 2.5 inches deep I would have got 2 of them had I known they were so great comes with glass domed cover with vent. Handles come off so it can go in the oven love it!!!

Just to let you know how to clean the Organic Green frying pan, put straight white vinegar or even half vinegar/half hot water over the level of the 'stuff' you can't get out, and let it sit overnight. I prefer to just use straight vinegar. You should be able to get the crud off the next day or if you heat it up to make the vinegar hot, you can wipe it off with a paper towel. I've been doing that to mine for years when it gets a build up of cooking crud.

You Sir just sold me a pair of Catch Caddy's!

With the side socket extreme heat may cause an issue like running an AC unit or two or a toaster with it close to the couch like that it could be issues if it were pushed back further on a hot day with the AC running and the toaster going it could be a number of different things with high power that would make it heat up quite a bit otherwise it's a good thing

Vegetti is great! I just don’t use it often. Have to be careful with your fingers using it tho

we got a couple of those stonewaves from the Dollar Tree for $1 ea. we use them but not a whole lot, but still good.

You can just stuff a towel between the car seats and nothing will fall down between them anymore. And if you push it down far enough, it will create a trap to catch things just like the caddyshacker or whatever it's called. The big difference is there won't be a ton of coins falling between the gaps in the seat/belt buckle and the hard plastic.

I used to help care for a girl on a ventilator that needed special breathing treatments 4 times every day. Most medical stuff plugs in, so outlets were always at a premium and the mom had bought some side sockets to allow us to use some otherwise covered outlets. It was... okay. When we moved the cart with the equipment on it, things often came unplugged. It only took a small bump for things to stop getting power, so we quickly learned to avoid it as much as possible during treatments. But on the positive side of things, it did give us access to far more outlets. I give it a C-.

you do know you can microwave in any freezer zip bag it has to be a freezer bag(quart or gallon size) but even some of the cheap ones work good. don't seal bag turn back top of bag so zipper is facing out fill with frozen veggies half way or so up bag microwave on high for 5 minutes. For fresh veggies add 2 Tablespoons water and microwave 5 minutes check to see if it is done, you can microwave for an additional 5 minutes. yes you can do a Scrambled Egg in a bag or even a foam bowl I have done that many times.

O.k., so one thing I Noticed no one does myself included is with the green pan. Before it's first use it is supposed to be cured in your oven at high temp for, If I remember an hour to seal the ceramic which is why you and I got the residue build up inside it.

Watch out for that veg string cutter. Inspect it each time you use it to make sure one of those cutting teeth didn't break off and get into your food.
