Good Manual Can Opener
Remember, in a power outage, the manual can opener still works, heh. And they are quieter. This one is so much better than the cheap types I've subjected myself to in the past. This one opens cans when I squeeze and turn the finger-friendly handle - that's all I wanted, and that's what I got. Stainless and easy to clean. It looks nice enough to hang up. Very satisfied.

"It's like opening a can on a cloud!"
...these are the words that immediately popped into my head upon first using this can opener. Whether or not they make sense, the point is that this is an excellent can opener.

Pros:
-It's dishwasher safe (a lot of can openers aren't, apparently).
-It feels solid and well-built.
-Opening a can with it is remarkably smooth and effortless.

Cons:
-None so far.

I originally mulled over whether paying ~$16 for a can opener was ridiculous when there are many cheaper options available. I'm glad I went through with it, though, because I've never used a better can opener in my life and I think it will last a very long time.

A pattern to celebrate all through the snowy season, the Winterberry dinnerware combines a creamy background with delicately rendered holly branches and bright red berries. Thin green banding, scalloped edges, and graceful embossing complete the design's festive but subtle mood. Coordinating accessory pieces and serving dishes feature cheerful bells and ribbons. Crafted from stoneware, the dishes are substantial in construction and durable enough for everyday use. They are safe in the dishwasher, freezer, microwave, and oven, and actually lock in the warmth of hot foods. All pieces carry a three-year warranty and can be replaced individually. Matching glassware is also available.

Best popcorn ever
Stir Crazy is one of the best popcorn makers available. Our family has popcorn several times each week. We give Stir Crazy as Christmas presents as soon as the grandchildren are old enough to enjoy it. The results are terrific and the snack is healthy, delicious and lesss expensive than the typical snack foods. We serve the popcorn with very little salt and butter, accompanied by sliced apples, pears or dried fruit.

Best popcorn maker ever!
I've had my Stir Crazy for over 25 years (that's correct!) and it still works perfectly. Super easy to use - just put a couple of tablespoons of oil and 2/3 cup of unpopped corn in the bottom of the popper, put the dome on (make sure to remove the plastic top lid or you'll have soggy popcorn), and plug it in. About 5 minutes later you'll have perfect popcorn, with very few unpopped kernels. The automatic metal stirrer is the key. And cleanup is easy. I just wipe the popper with a damp cloth after each use; the dome cleans easily with soap and water. I put my dome in the dishwasher, but I don't know if the newer models are dishwasher-safe.

A couple of hints: Don't make a 6-quart batch (1 cup kernels), it'll overfill the dome. 2/3 cup kernels works much better.
Don't put butter in the top to melt while popping. It's messy, clogs up the vent holes and doesn't melt fully. Better to melt the butter in the microwave while the corn is popping and pour it over the popped corn.
Don't wait for every last kernel to pop. You'll get burnt popcorn. If there's more than a second or two between pops it's time to unplug the popper, put the plastic lid on the dome, and flip the popper over ASAP.
Follow these hints and you'll have perfect popcorn every time.

I, for one, cannot stand the smell of microwave popcorn with that weird artificial butter odor. The Stir Crazy popcorn has a wonderful fresh smell instead - much more appetizing.

I've read the few negative reviews and the complaints seem to be: the teflon coating coming off, the stir rod not working properly (kernels getting stuck underneath causing too many unpopped kernels), and the dome getting too hot. Fortunately I've never had any of these problems with my popper. I believe that West Bend has cheapened the design somewhat and outsourced the manufacturing to China in order to keep the price down. My 25 year-old popper was made in the USA (probably to higher standards) and is still going strong. I would recommend checking on eBay for a "vintage" Stir Crazy (it has a yellow dome) and you'll probably wind up getting a better popper.

The day my Stir Crazy finally fails will be a sad one, but it doesn't owe me a thing. And it's given me 25 years of the best-tasting popcorn around.
