Hi Freakin' Reviews, I've been subscribed to you for at least 2 years. You have the best reviews for so many reasons. 1. First of all, you actually use the products and show it. 2. You give pros and cons. You frequently go through the advertised claims and give your opinion as to whether or not the claims are valid. If something doesn't work well, you make no bones about it. When something works well, it seems that you incorporate it into your life. 3. If you have a competitor or comparable product, you do comparisons. You provide a full disclosure, stating the age of the older product so it's clear that you're comparing a new product to something that may have some age and wear & tear on it. 4. You provide updates on the things that you've used for a bit. This is great for the purposes of durability. On Amazon, a lot of the reviews lot of review are, what I'd call, surface level. A reviewer just received the product and it looks good or the reviewer has used it only once. Sometimes a reviewer will say that they'll provide an update in a few months after they've used the product for a while, but when I look at the date of the review, it's several years old. The reviewer never provided an update. Your updates are invaluable. A lot of times, things work great right out of the box, but start breaking down after a few uses. 5. You review a variety of items. Some are a little goofy, but most of them are practical household items. So, I greatly value your reviews above all. With all of the above, in mind, I would like to ask if you'd review Power Spin Scrubbers. I'm an older woman with very serious back pain. I was nearly bedridden for 13 - 15 years until I found a genuine pain management doctor (There are a lot of doctors out there who are not properly or adequately trained as pain mgmt doctors. When you get a genuine pain mgmt doctor who started Med School AND was trained in that discipline, you'll know it.) After 13 years, I had a lot of muscle atrophy and it took me about 2 years to get onto my feet, permanently. Roughly every 6 months, I have to have medical procedures to remain on my feet. So, I try to do whatever I can to avoid stressing out my back. This is the reason I'm interested in a decent Power Spin Scrubber. It seems they are helpful in washing bathtubs and floors (linolium, tile and perhaps wood). Is there any chance you could incorporate a few of these scrubbers into your schedule? Thank you so very much for your reviews. I just watched a supposed review on one of these scrubbers. Ugh! It wasn't a review at all. It was roughly a 30 minute review with these women blabbing about the product, saying nothing of value. After some fumbling, they got it together and then showed each of the 6-8 scrubbing attachments spinning on the end of the device. I spent about 5 minutes watching after I skipped through to their unboxing and then skipped here and there until it was clear their review was a waste of my time. If you already did a review on these scrubbers, I apologize. I happened to see this review and started writing. If you already did a review on these scrubbers, I'll find it. Again, thank you, Freakin' Reviews for your excellent reviews!
I just said to my husband "it sounds like when you close the caravan blinds when we're camping" but ur right it could be a tent zipper too! Nothing quite as loud as a tent zip when ur trying to sneak out for a 2am pee!!
@@michmirichand she’s far worse than him. She clearly forces this and ruins the item. Beyond that, this is one of many options out there for this and this item is clearly trash.
Also this doesn't have sharp edges and fresh dough is only a few milliliters thick. Even the thick wooden peels have a sharp leading edge. Also, what kind of psychopath bakes their pizza straight on the oven grill? It's not gonna bake evenly.
The sliding peel is absolutely great for putting loose, raw dough in the oven. Once you get the hang of holding the yoke steady while sliding the tray back, things just drop onto the stone. Way less stressful than worrying a square mm of your dough has stuck as you're yanking a wooden peel. Picking things up with it won't work so well (build your pie on it), but you can pull out cooked pizzas or bread onto a tray or cutting board with tongs. It's zero value if you're doing frozen pizzas, but so is a regular pizza peel. You really need floppy, potentially sticky dough to see the difference. Bonus, because the dough doesn't have to slide you use less flour on the bottom, so your pie contacts the stone directly and cooks better.
I feel like it's a great idea that clearly works, and if anything the biggest issue looks to be the build quality. They'd have a better time convincing someone that it's a good product if only they made it feel less flimsy than it seemed to be, even if that meant making it a bit more expensive.
Ideally, home made pizzas should be baked in two steps (you first bake the dough with just the sauce, then you add the topping and bake again) because home ovens cannot reach the temperatures of a log oven (around 400-500°C). The excess flour is necessary both for the peel to work and so you don't burn the dough.
I heard about the Target one on the news, I thought it was some Canadian thing. Like a mini Stanley cup for the current winner collectable. Wasn't till later I saw a video on Ytube, explaining what it was. And how it became a fade thing to buy, was interesting honestly how it got started.
@@dtylerb Me too! I actually have 3 of them. You know, you lose one for a while, purchase another, then find the first one. Then lose 2...etc., etc. LOL!
I got my daughter a strap for her Stanley cup and it makes it so much easier to carry around. She also has a snackie drink cup with a food container and she hatted it. It’s so big and bulky.
Put tinfoil on your oven floor by lifting the element when cold. It will save cleaning- just change tinfoil. I use an extra-wide tinfoil roll. Make a lip around the perimeter to catch liquids. Trick with pizza is put it on a little wire rack before placing it in oven. Easy to remove.
A good rule for kitchen gadgets is: if you don't see it in a professional kitchen, you don't need it. You just need to learn how to use the much simpler and cheaper version that has been in use for decades. Like the pizza thing, ever seen that in a pizza shop? No, they just use a regular pizza peel that cost like $10, lasts forever and is super easy to clean.
the pizza peel is for fresh dough that you have rolled out on the counter with toppings and stuff on it before you bake it. obviously it isnt needed for a pre made pizza
Re: Microwave caddy holder: They need one that fits frozen dinners - rectangular, they get really hot and some leak and they also bend - they're dangerous! I like these caddys but, don't care for the price, (egads!) I just use paper plates, they don't hold the heat, not real firm, but they work ok. Thanks for the review!
I never needed help getting a pizza in the oven. Hands work fine for that. Getting a hot pizza out of an oven? Never needed more than a spatula. As for getting hot plates/bowls out of a microwave, a tea towel usually works. Oven mitts for hotter or heavier items.
I have these things called “potholders” that have worked for my whole life (I’m 76+) and don’t see one single reason for that microwave bowl holder! Just one more plastic thing I’d have to find a space for! I love kitchen gadgets but - really!!!
To be fair potholders can be kinda awkward using for plates and bowls. Sometimes they can get stained by food. And it's not particularly easy to get underneath the bowl/plate with potholders. These handles would solve all those problems.
@@ThePrufessa , I see people handling stuff in the kitchen and it literally triggers me. That's why I don't allow anyone in my kitchen. Saying a potholder is awkward just makes my point. Please, stay away from chemistry labs 😆
@@Nclk619 I said they're kinda awkward for plates and bowls. I didn't say they were completely awkward. Either take everything I said into context or don't bother replying to me when you're only responding to part of what I said. Getting underneath a plate or bowl can sometimes be awkward using a traditional potholder.
*_Pizza Peel:_* Looks like it's one of those items made by a bunch of different manufacturers, so the build quality can be kinda hit-or-miss. And it looks like its sheet is made out of the same material as reusable baking mats, which would explain the discoloring, which should be totally fine. Shame about it having an edge tear so quickly though. *_Microwave Caddy and Stanley Cup snack bowl:_* Wow, those are wonderful. And I'm glad to see someone's also making a bowl for the 30 oz Stanleys.
Guess I'm old. When I heard "Stanley Cup Snack Tray" my first two thoughts were: the hockey trophy should be big enough on its own to hold snacks, no? and only a handful of people in the world can make use of this product because who has a championship hockey trophy? Times are changing I suppose.
if you wanted something that would boil over, use 2 packs of oatmeal and 2 cups of water on high for 4 minutes. you'll have a nice lava effect at minute 3 when the oats start to absorb the water.
As someone who professionally made pizza, mastering a traditional pizza peel is definitely worth the effort. Especially for premade crusts, its extremely easy.
Honestly, the way you shoved the peel under the pizza to pull it out of the oven is EXACTLY the same as you would use for a regular peel. Using that same exact motion as at 5:17, I've never had a problem pulling things out of the pizza oven where I worked.
That Stanley cup holder needs to come with a longer straw to put in the cup otherwise it is going to be very awkward to drink out of the cup, especially when it gets to the bottom.
I was surprised he didn't show trying to drink out of the cup with the tray on there. It looks really awkward, even with a straw, like you couldn't get it very close to your face and would have to kind of lean over it.
@@kathykrisko3228 That is why I was thinking you need a longer straw. For me, I just don't see the point and the other 2, I think the pizza thing is to flimsy and the microwave caddy maybe useful, but I rarely use the microwave nowadays. A lot of things I used the microwave for, I now do in an oven type airfryer.
The mini version of the device is meant for thick liquids like mustar ketchup jams and honey, and stuff like that. I have one of the small types and use it every time i spill something on my counter 😉.
I have the "Super Pizza Peel" which I suspect this is knocking off. The Super Peel uses cloth, which is quieter, but also I'm not a huge fan of food on fabric. The handle on the Super Pizza Peel has a handle that's the same piece of material as the rest of the peel, so it's quite sturdy. Given how many pizzas I've made that have failed because I couldn't get it on/off the peel, this was a game changer.
I got a real wonderful pizza cutter from Snake Discover. It works great! Even though plastic, it can be taken apart for cleaning. I forgot, it doesn't leave score marks on your cutting surface.
The sliding peel is a take on these oven sized canvas peels used in French bakeries. They can slide an ovens worth of bread loaves in and out of the oven in just a second. I think it just needs some work.
Bailey was waiting at the ready during the pizza test--she knew that one more trip that handle was going to snap or the pizza was going to slide off and she'd be the winner! I've seen people glowing over that product and it's good to know it's not worth it! Once again you save us money!
yeah when I do frozen pizzas I literally just grab it with my hands out of the package, throw it directly on the grates, and when it's done grab a plate and pull it out with my bare hands again, this thing was meant for fresh dough
My grandmother used to do these with a cookie sheet and parchment paper way back since the 50's. I witnessed it in the 70's and 80's. It also picked up messes.
Regarding hot bowls and plates from the microwave, I have a simple trick that works wonders... You take a paper towel tear it in half, then fold it over a few times on each half, then use those 2 pieces to grab onto the bowl or plate and protect your fingers. Once the bowl or plate is set where you want to eat you can use the paper towels to clean up messes or wipe your face when finished. The added bonus is if you like "wet naps" to clean your face with you can wet one of the halves and keep the other dry. Economical, effective, ecological, and efficient.
I have a question; did you actually drink out of the Stanley cup with the snack tray attached? It looks like it would be very awkward especially sitting down.
As a homemade pizza maker I feel like there is something to this peel! Maybe not this exact version but something like it because that could really make life easier when dealing with sticky dough.
The bowl caddy looks like you can use it to hold your soup and put your pieces of bread in the trough while you’re eating on the couch or something. Multi functional lol
The Pizza Peel is a great idea but still needs more Refinement. 8:40 My wife and I make that kind of Ramen on the stove. Ramen Cups are OK for the microwave. But whatever makes you happy. 😏
We use those Bowl Huggers for our oatmeal bowls. Only bowls we microwave so they are great and easy to wash when I overcook the oats and it boils over in the microwave.
Maybe I'm kinda trailer trash, but I've always used the box that the pizza came in to move the pizza around (obviously frozen pizza, I think making fresh pizza is a waste of time)
Speaking just for myself, I make homemade pizzas with fresh dough on a pizza stone on my grill. I have almost lost them before trying to slide a traditional pizza peel underneath a cooked pizza and nearly pushing it right off the grill. That may be niche but it does seem like this peel would solve that problem but I wish the build quality was higher.
Man, ever since I started watching this channel, I've spent more money on things I never thought I'd buy! "Ooo, I need that!" "Man, that's so cool I'll get two!" 😂🤣
2 thoughts on the video :) When i've seen that pizza thing it has mainly been used to pick freshly made pizzas of the table, the more moist dough is gonna stick much better to it , but i've not seen ppl use it to remove the pizza from the oven... And the microwave handle thing, they probably could be usefull for old people or disabled who might have trouble with their grip, having handles to grip might be better for them
I know the perfect situation for that Stanley cup snack holder. Years ago I was laid up for weeks and weeks with two broken ankles. I couldn't get up on my own and I couldn't walk. That snack holder would've come in really handy.
That noise the pizza peel was making would keep me from buying it, that and the fact that it's really not necessary. All you need is a pizza pan or pizza stone.
It's for getting the raw pie onto the hot stone, if you're not great with a regular pizza peel. The noise only lasts half a second if you do it right. Well, twice, because you need to reset it.
That first one seems like it's a case of "good idea, but cheap implementation ruins it". Make it out of sturdier materials, make the central handle have a bit more of an edge to it so you can use that to easily slide it under the pizza, make it a bit wider, and give a bit more room on some of the spacing. Do all that and you'd probably be able to make it work well, and really depending on the materials, you could probably still keep the production cost under $30 without too much trouble.
Temu sells them for like ten bucks. Making them twice as big might add 2 or 3 dollars cost but then they wouldn't want to ship them... To make them sturdier you'd need exotic materials (they're either stiff plastic or thin plywood now), and that really would increase the cost.
@@blairhoughton7918 The Temu versions of products tend to be the extremely cheaply made ones, so it being cheaper than what he paid isn't that surprising. With better tolerances and a few adjustments though, you really wouldn't have to spend too much more to get a sturdier product. You could use metal or actual wood pretty cheaply that would be much sturdier than this. The main cost increase would probably be the cloth used, since it'd need to be a washable plastic most likely that would be either easily replaceable in time or durable enough to last a bit. Most of the tearing and getting caught which tore the current sheet up could either be solved by having some small guide rails to keep it in place better, or by giving it more of a gap to go through, and preferably both. Ultimately the product could easily be made cheaply, (though not that cheap), while being sturdier and more effective. Initial production runs might be on the pricier side to help pay for the tooling needed to mass produce them, but in the long run they could easily drop the price to $30 or lower while being better than the version shown here, and still make a profit. In reality though they'd probably try to double the price since it is a novelty item that fewer people will buy to begin with. Most products you buy tend to have massively inflated prices, particularly if they're niche. Those "$10" ones probably take less than four or five dollars to make at the absolute most, (and I wouldn't be surprised at even lower, once you account for buying the materials in bulk anyhow, which any mass production will do), which is why they fall apart so easily.
@@Gamer3427 I don't think that's generally true about the quality difference. The resellers on Amazon are selling exactly the same stuff (at 2-3X the price), and sometimes you see a well-known branded version on Amazon and it's the identical unit with a name pressed into it. I've never felt deceived by a Temu ad, either, but it's happened a lot on Amazon where the listing standards are somewhat lower As for these sliding peels, none of them appear to be high quality, anywhere. If you want a sturdy one it might mean buying a Temu water-jet cutting table and honing your own from billet plate. Could be cheaper... (Disclaimer: poster is not responsible for fractionated cats.)
Pizza Peel: Just too damn loud for me to want it and you likely would be able to use many toppings on your pizza due to weight issues. The idea is not bad but it needs more work. Microwave caddy : Not sure i would use this but it seems to do what is advertised. Not sure while anyone would want to bother making a tiktok video on it tho. Snacktray: No thanks would not want that on any drinking vessel i might use.
I keep seeing that peel advertised and as someone who makes pizza regularly I just don't see myself getting much use from it. If you're using a frozen pizza you don't need a peel, just pull apart the box at the seams and flip it inside out and use that. For fresh pizza just make sure you're working on a well floured surface and use a sturdy wooden or metal peel that's also well floured.
I'd be interested to see if the pizza peel actually works for the typical function of a pizza peel. Normally, you'd cover it in something such as semolina, corn starch, or flour, and you'd put a raw pizza dough onto it, then slide that raw pizza onto a super heated stone in the oven. I can't help but think that the raw dough would just stick to the paper and you'd end up with a huge mess.
The pizza dough tray looks (and sounds!) like an excellent way to fling your pizza onto the floor or into the back of the oven because you overshot your trajectory.
I used to do a portable pizza oven to shopping centres and the company supplied me with this KICK ARSE pizza cutter - it was deathly sharp. I was given the like, prototype and when I mentioned its sharpness, they changed the design. Ten years later and I still have this awesome cutter which goes to a professional knife sharpener. It's that good and solid too I am going to check to see if you review pizza cutters as you have just shown up in my videos and I clicked on this one haha, now off to explore your other vids. Subbed too!
It's easy to pick up a frozen pizza, you just grab it with your hands and put it. also removing a cooked pizza is easy, I use kitchen tongs and pull it into my cutting board. The only problem is to pick up a self made fresh with cheese and toppings
PIZZA-Material is unacceptable-you can make your own at home using a Chopping Board-MICROWAVE-I'd definitely buy it if Walmart sells it!-STANLEY-looks weak-Chips & Dip- maybe I'd use it for that-in car need a longer straw so you don't have to lift the cup.😁
The purpose of a kitchen gadget is to make a certain job easier, the pizza thing literally makes it more awkward than just using a cutting board like I do and the pizza cutter I'm going to use to cut the pizza anyway so it doesn't save time or washing up, in fact it makes more washing up because it isn't a cutting board.

@@Nclk619 I said they're kinda awkward for plates and bowls. I didn't say they were completely awkward. Either take everything I said into context or don't bother replying to me when you're only responding to part of what I said. Getting underneath a plate or bowl can sometimes be awkward using a traditional potholder.
My cats HATED the sound that pizza stone made! TBH, they aren't wrong.
*_Pizza Peel:_* Looks like it's one of those items made by a bunch of different manufacturers, so the build quality can be kinda hit-or-miss. And it looks like its sheet is made out of the same material as reusable baking mats, which would explain the discoloring, which should be totally fine. Shame about it having an edge tear so quickly though.
*_Microwave Caddy and Stanley Cup snack bowl:_* Wow, those are wonderful. And I'm glad to see someone's also making a bowl for the 30 oz Stanleys.
Happy Easter James and family! 😁
Guess I'm old. When I heard "Stanley Cup Snack Tray" my first two thoughts were: the hockey trophy should be big enough on its own to hold snacks, no? and only a handful of people in the world can make use of this product because who has a championship hockey trophy? Times are changing I suppose.
When you said "Stanley cup", (as a Canadian) I thought (the hockey) Stanley Cup 😂
my mom has the microwave caddy (in red) and before I moved out I use to use it a lot it's real helpful
Bailey is the picture of subtlety
if you wanted something that would boil over, use 2 packs of oatmeal and 2 cups of water on high for 4 minutes. you'll have a nice lava effect at minute 3 when the oats start to absorb the water.
the sliding pizza peel sounds like it's made of raincoat fabric or smth
Similar polyester texture but this is stiffer.
@@blairhoughton7918 i wonder if that's really the best material to use for smth like this, or if it's just the cheapest thing they could get
I love watching all of your reviews I am always recommending your channel.
Are potholders such an absurd product?!?! Also, i just use the cardboard that the pizza comes on for frozen pizza.
Pizza on the floor? That's what pets are for.😊
As someone who professionally made pizza, mastering a traditional pizza peel is definitely worth the effort. Especially for premade crusts, its extremely easy.
Honestly, the way you shoved the peel under the pizza to pull it out of the oven is EXACTLY the same as you would use for a regular peel. Using that same exact motion as at 5:17, I've never had a problem pulling things out of the pizza oven where I worked.
It's so refreshing to see such blatantly honest reviews
That Stanley cup holder needs to come with a longer straw to put in the cup otherwise it is going to be very awkward to drink out of the cup, especially when it gets to the bottom.
I was surprised he didn't show trying to drink out of the cup with the tray on there. It looks really awkward, even with a straw, like you couldn't get it very close to your face and would have to kind of lean over it.
@@kathykrisko3228 That is why I was thinking you need a longer straw. For me, I just don't see the point and the other 2, I think the pizza thing is to flimsy and the microwave caddy maybe useful, but I rarely use the microwave nowadays. A lot of things I used the microwave for, I now do in an oven type airfryer.
@@kathykrisko3228I was thinking the same. The snacks would spill when you are awkwardly trying to take a drink.
You're supposed to use the Pizza Peel on raw pizza dough before backing. That is what that idea was meant for.
The mini version of the device is meant for thick liquids like mustar ketchup jams and honey, and stuff like that. I have one of the small types and use it every time i spill something on my counter 😉.
I have the "Super Pizza Peel" which I suspect this is knocking off. The Super Peel uses cloth, which is quieter, but also I'm not a huge fan of food on fabric. The handle on the Super Pizza Peel has a handle that's the same piece of material as the rest of the peel, so it's quite sturdy. Given how many pizzas I've made that have failed because I couldn't get it on/off the peel, this was a game changer.
I got a real wonderful pizza cutter from Snake Discover. It works great! Even though plastic, it can be taken apart for cleaning. I forgot, it doesn't leave score marks on your cutting surface.
Thank you for being the realest reviewer on UA-cam
The sliding peel is a take on these oven sized canvas peels used in French bakeries. They can slide an ovens worth of bread loaves in and out of the oven in just a second. I think it just needs some work.
Bailey was waiting at the ready during the pizza test--she knew that one more trip that handle was going to snap or the pizza was going to slide off and she'd be the winner! I've seen people glowing over that product and it's good to know it's not worth it!
Once again you save us money!
Bailey is waiting for you to drop a piece. *LoL*
Every time I hear Stanley Cup I think hockey, must just be a Canadian problem...
> I’m going with frozen pizza
> picks up the frozen pizza with bare hands without any problems
yeah when I do frozen pizzas I literally just grab it with my hands out of the package, throw it directly on the grates, and when it's done grab a plate and pull it out with my bare hands again, this thing was meant for fresh dough
@@insederec Yep. Barry Lewis tested it with fresh dough, and it was terrible
Snack tray over Stanley cup 👍👍 Road trip, car camping, movie night. Beer & peanuts.
A professional metal pizza pan is far superior.
Bailey hoping for a fail on the pizza grabber
Haha! My thoughts exactly 😅
My grandmother used to do these with a cookie sheet and parchment paper way back since the 50's. I witnessed it in the 70's and 80's. It also picked up messes.
Regarding hot bowls and plates from the microwave, I have a simple trick that works wonders...
You take a paper towel tear it in half, then fold it over a few times on each half, then use those 2 pieces to grab onto the bowl or plate and protect your fingers. Once the bowl or plate is set where you want to eat you can use the paper towels to clean up messes or wipe your face when finished. The added bonus is if you like "wet naps" to clean your face with you can wet one of the halves and keep the other dry. Economical, effective, ecological, and efficient.
"Fleshy feeling but not in a good way. I'm sure you know what I mean."
🤣🤣🤣
Good Tiger!! Aspirations is one of my favorite songs ever. I’ve seen the shirt several times, but finally felt compelled to comment lol
FYI, they make a plate hugger too. It's exactly like the bowl hugger, just larger for plates.
I have a question; did you actually drink out of the Stanley cup with the snack tray attached? It looks like it would be very awkward especially sitting down.
Exactly what I was thinking!
As a homemade pizza maker I feel like there is something to this peel! Maybe not this exact version but something like it because that could really make life easier when dealing with sticky dough.
The bowl caddy looks like you can use it to hold your soup and put your pieces of bread in the trough while you’re eating on the couch or something. Multi functional lol
The pizza peel sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard.
The Pizza Peel is a great idea but still needs more Refinement.
8:40 My wife and I make that kind of Ramen on the stove. Ramen Cups are OK for the microwave. But whatever makes you happy. 😏
We use those Bowl Huggers for our oatmeal bowls. Only bowls we microwave so they are great and easy to wash when I overcook the oats and it boils over in the microwave.
Maybe I'm kinda trailer trash, but I've always used the box that the pizza came in to move the pizza around (obviously frozen pizza, I think making fresh pizza is a waste of time)
aww look at that adorable little puppy on the couch
1:35
I don’t care if it makes my pizza cure cancer, I ain’t using something that sounds like that.
Would have loved to see you try to pick up mustard/ketchup off a table with the pizza peel like they do in some of the videos.
Speaking just for myself, I make homemade pizzas with fresh dough on a pizza stone on my grill. I have almost lost them before trying to slide a traditional pizza peel underneath a cooked pizza and nearly pushing it right off the grill. That may be niche but it does seem like this peel would solve that problem but I wish the build quality was higher.
Man, ever since I started watching this channel, I've spent more money on things I never thought I'd buy! "Ooo, I need that!" "Man, that's so cool I'll get two!" 😂🤣
Oh James, you said Stanley Cup snack holder, and my first thought was that'll never fit on that hockey trophy 🏆 lol! Happy Easter 🐣 Happy Saturday 👍
Best thing to test for boil over in the microwave would be milk or even better, oatmeal made with milk.
2 thoughts on the video :) When i've seen that pizza thing it has mainly been used to pick freshly made pizzas of the table, the more moist dough is gonna stick much better to it , but i've not seen ppl use it to remove the pizza from the oven... And the microwave handle thing, they probably could be usefull for old people or disabled who might have trouble with their grip, having handles to grip might be better for them
I know the perfect situation for that Stanley cup snack holder. Years ago I was laid up for weeks and weeks with two broken ankles. I couldn't get up on my own and I couldn't walk. That snack holder would've come in really handy.
That noise the pizza peel was making would keep me from buying it, that and the fact that it's really not necessary. All you need is a pizza pan or pizza stone.
It's for getting the raw pie onto the hot stone, if you're not great with a regular pizza peel. The noise only lasts half a second if you do it right. Well, twice, because you need to reset it.
Pizza peel is meant for fresh dough: gummy, elastic and quite sticky. Frozen/premade pizzas dont even need a plate to carry them
That first one seems like it's a case of "good idea, but cheap implementation ruins it". Make it out of sturdier materials, make the central handle have a bit more of an edge to it so you can use that to easily slide it under the pizza, make it a bit wider, and give a bit more room on some of the spacing. Do all that and you'd probably be able to make it work well, and really depending on the materials, you could probably still keep the production cost under $30 without too much trouble.
Temu sells them for like ten bucks. Making them twice as big might add 2 or 3 dollars cost but then they wouldn't want to ship them... To make them sturdier you'd need exotic materials (they're either stiff plastic or thin plywood now), and that really would increase the cost.
@@blairhoughton7918 The Temu versions of products tend to be the extremely cheaply made ones, so it being cheaper than what he paid isn't that surprising. With better tolerances and a few adjustments though, you really wouldn't have to spend too much more to get a sturdier product.
You could use metal or actual wood pretty cheaply that would be much sturdier than this. The main cost increase would probably be the cloth used, since it'd need to be a washable plastic most likely that would be either easily replaceable in time or durable enough to last a bit.
Most of the tearing and getting caught which tore the current sheet up could either be solved by having some small guide rails to keep it in place better, or by giving it more of a gap to go through, and preferably both.
Ultimately the product could easily be made cheaply, (though not that cheap), while being sturdier and more effective. Initial production runs might be on the pricier side to help pay for the tooling needed to mass produce them, but in the long run they could easily drop the price to $30 or lower while being better than the version shown here, and still make a profit.
In reality though they'd probably try to double the price since it is a novelty item that fewer people will buy to begin with. Most products you buy tend to have massively inflated prices, particularly if they're niche. Those "$10" ones probably take less than four or five dollars to make at the absolute most, (and I wouldn't be surprised at even lower, once you account for buying the materials in bulk anyhow, which any mass production will do), which is why they fall apart so easily.
@@Gamer3427 I don't think that's generally true about the quality difference. The resellers on Amazon are selling exactly the same stuff (at 2-3X the price), and sometimes you see a well-known branded version on Amazon and it's the identical unit with a name pressed into it. I've never felt deceived by a Temu ad, either, but it's happened a lot on Amazon where the listing standards are somewhat lower
As for these sliding peels, none of them appear to be high quality, anywhere. If you want a sturdy one it might mean buying a Temu water-jet cutting table and honing your own from billet plate. Could be cheaper... (Disclaimer: poster is not responsible for fractionated cats.)
Pizza Peel: Just too damn loud for me to want it and you likely would be able to use many toppings on your pizza due to weight issues. The idea is not bad but it needs more work.
Microwave caddy : Not sure i would use this but it seems to do what is advertised. Not sure while anyone would want to bother making a tiktok video on it tho.
Snacktray: No thanks would not want that on any drinking vessel i might use.
I keep seeing that peel advertised and as someone who makes pizza regularly I just don't see myself getting much use from it.
If you're using a frozen pizza you don't need a peel, just pull apart the box at the seams and flip it inside out and use that.
For fresh pizza just make sure you're working on a well floured surface and use a sturdy wooden or metal peel that's also well floured.
Sliding Pizza Peel! Tom Horsman has test both the regular and heavy duty one. Very cool product.
I'd be interested to see if the pizza peel actually works for the typical function of a pizza peel. Normally, you'd cover it in something such as semolina, corn starch, or flour, and you'd put a raw pizza dough onto it, then slide that raw pizza onto a super heated stone in the oven. I can't help but think that the raw dough would just stick to the paper and you'd end up with a huge mess.
The pizza dough tray looks (and sounds!) like an excellent way to fling your pizza onto the floor or into the back of the oven because you overshot your trajectory.
I used to do a portable pizza oven to shopping centres and the company supplied me with this KICK ARSE pizza cutter - it was deathly sharp. I was given the like, prototype and when I mentioned its sharpness, they changed the design.
Ten years later and I still have this awesome cutter which goes to a professional knife sharpener. It's that good and solid too
I am going to check to see if you review pizza cutters as you have just shown up in my videos and I clicked on this one haha, now off to explore your other vids. Subbed too!
The pizza peel sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard😖😖😖
Until you actually showed the cup... I thought you were talking about a snack bowl for watching the NHL Stanley cup. I was so confused. Lol!
It's easy to pick up a frozen pizza, you just grab it with your hands and put it. also removing a cooked pizza is easy, I use kitchen tongs and pull it into my cutting board. The only problem is to pick up a self made fresh with cheese and toppings
I love my Microwave caddy. Although mine does fold up for, what I think, easier storage.
I would take caution on the sliding pizza peel. The non-stick fabric looks like fiberglass with a Teflon (PTFE) coating.
I imagine you could mitigate the noise of the sliding pizza peel by removing the cloth and sanding the bearing edges of the peel, rounding them over.
PIZZA-Material is unacceptable-you can make your own at home using a Chopping Board-MICROWAVE-I'd definitely buy it if Walmart sells it!-STANLEY-looks weak-Chips & Dip- maybe I'd use it for that-in car need a longer straw so you don't have to lift the cup.😁
When you said Stanley Cup, I thought he was talking about the NHL.
The purpose of a kitchen gadget is to make a certain job easier, the pizza thing literally makes it more awkward than just using a cutting board like I do and the pizza cutter I'm going to use to cut the pizza anyway so it doesn't save time or washing up, in fact it makes more washing up because it isn't a cutting board.
