ok, bought one, to see if it was any good, sometimes the "As seen on TV", shit can be gold. it saves me a burner and sapce while cooking pasta n stuff, and i will say, worked perfectly. noodles were done, and not over cooked. Perfect for kids to make dinner while parents are out, and easy as fuck to use.
it boils the water in micro, but it also can be used to steam shit, has attachments for it.
like i said, when im cooking ground beef, have mushrooms and others shit in another pan, its nice to not have a huge pot with boiling water taking u space. Have a smallish Stove and burners are very close to each other, so 3 of anything on the burners is taking up too much space.
every once a year i'll try some of the "as seen on tv" shit. most are garbage, but sometimes they are dymo-mite
I'm a sucker for the as seen on tv crap. While I never buy the stuff on TV, I usually pick them up at places like Bed Bath and Beyond or Linens and Things as they carry all the as seen on tv crap. Here's my most recent fucked up as seen on tv failed purchase:
8 seconds my ass. Took me like 3-4 minutes per potato. Still skin on it. And my fucking hands were killing me after one potato. I'd rather jack off with these things than try to skin another potato with them.
