One note on the grippers:
Don't underestimate your feeling of confidence with an item. If someone doesn't feel confident in the item, they're less likely to use it, no matter how actually useful or safe the item is. If an item doesn't instill you with confidence when you use it, then that's an improvement they can make. With the gripper itself, I would suggest widening the jaws by about 1/2 in. on each side. I feel that would significantly improve the feeling of stability you get when using the item, without making it ridiculously large
Here is an idea for a video, as you mentioned, the other bag dispenser you tried was so bad it didnt end up even in a video. If you happen to film any products like that, that don't end up becoming a video, maybe save them and then at one point just make a compilation, like "5 kitchen gadget fails" or something. But great video, I know I have a kitchen drawer stuffed to the brim with bags. and something like that would work perfectly. Quick and easy to "store" empty bags, and just as easy to get again. Thanks again, I always enjoy watching your Freakin Reviews. :)
I purchased the gripper clips for use with my Instant Pot...they are now in the trash. After 2 uses they fell apart and the rubber end on one of them has never been seen since the second use. I don't think anyone ate it but the chili was really good so who knows.
😂 not laughing at you but your comment is funny, now you made me want some chili minus the silicone.😂😂
I discovered your channel when I was going through a depression and your videos helped me out a lot! Your voice is super calming and I love your vids! Always happy to see a new upload!
Hope you are doing better :)
@@youarehere0 I am thank you 😊 in a totally better place now and still coming here for vids!
@@maimiura Yay! glad to hear it. 🙂
When I am looking for a review I always come here first to see if you’ve done a review. I appreciate the way you try the product out throughly.
Ditto. Love this guy!
"I've had quite a few people tell me 'you've got to try this apple corer!'" This might be the first time in history that sentence has ever been said.
I've had that corer for about 3 years. It's been great for coring jalapeños for poppers and atomic buffalo turds, and it's tough enough to core a raw potato for potato bombs. Great product.
@@bostonrailfan2427 It's basically a cored jalapeno filled with a cream cheese and spice mixture, wrapped in a link's worth of sausage, then wrapped in bacon. Cook low and slow (around 250 degrees) for a few hours, sauce during the last hour. Originally found the recipe on BBQ Pit Boys, been trying to perfect it for a few years.
But...it looks like a big turd when finished...
@@jfernsten I'm going to a party Saturday. I know what I'm bringing now. Thank you
@@jfernsten I think they're also called Texas Twinkies? If I'm not mistaken
@@mikedepue twinkies usually don't have a sausage layer in addition to the bacon. They definitely become more turd with the extra layer.
@@jfernsten Whoa! Those sound insanely good.🤤
My day is ALWAYS better with Freakin Reviews
Best review channel on CZcams, dominating the space. Please never start accepting paid reviews
What I use as grocery bag dispenser is actually just an empty roll of paper towel. I also use 3M strips and stick it inside my cabinet door.
Note: you have to hold the bottom part when you refill it with plastic just so it won't push the plastic bags that's already inside out. It works perfectly for me and it's free.
i have a bag holder that looks like a chef plushy...you stuff the bags in his back and pull 'em out his...uh...bottom
Great idea!
I just use another bag.
@@joehorn1762 - there’s nothing better than a bag of bags!
My mom has a grocery bag holder made out of a kitchen towel that hangs on the door to her laundry room. It was handmade by one of her friends many, many years ago and still works great.
1. Oh my, my apple corer... What jagged teeth you have!
2. We used a similar device at Pizza Hut to pull the pans out of the oven. Derived from a blacksmith tool that held the hot metal.
3. I really like the bag caddie. Been using mines for 20yrs+ strong. Have mines mounted with screws in the utility room.
4. GREAT REVIEWS AS ALWAYS SIR!!!
I’ve had gripper clips for many years. Mine are Kuhn Rikon off QVC, and they work well for oven, microwave or toaster oven. I also use them to take the Spillstopper off pots and not burn myself.
I have the grippers and they work most of the time, you do need to be careful if you are gripping something that is wet or has condensation from steam on it because they will slip right off. I like the bag holder, think I might have to get that one.
I love that corer. I use it primarily to hole out potatoes for various recipes, but it cores apples, jalapeños, and more, and to make cheese tubes as well.
All three products look like winners to me. I like the Gripper Clips the most. I'm tired of being burned when removing stuff from my toaster oven! This might solve that problem. The price seems reasonable too. 😊
Thanks for your reviews! I've bought a couple of things you've previously reviewed and I am happy with them.
I like the way you get right into reviews and don’t diddle daddle
Dilly dally?
@@hopefletcher7420 yes that’s it ! LoL thanks
I have those exact grippers! They’re great for reaching in & pulling a Pyrex dish out of the pressure cooker or air fryer!
Was just looking today if you have posted anything and this pops up. Nice.
Just subscribed because I freakin' love to watch your reviews! Would love to see you do a review of laundry detergent sheets like Tru Earth, Earth Breeze, Kind, etc.- your reviews are so thoughtful and thorough and I trust your opinions. You look like a guy who loves clean laundry!
The gripper clips are outs this world. I have an all metal one. The little “rubber” thingy in the prong part. Comes out really easily becomes non useful but the apparatus works great without. I don’t use to carry just remove from wave. Mostly I use for instapot
Instapot should come out with these.
Three great items. Going to buy them asap. I had an apple corer, and it actually broke, so I'm about to try this one. Also love those grips for hot plates. These were 3 great reviews. Thank you !! Love all 3 items.
I have a similar bag dispenser and it's so nice having them compressed in one small location! I'd definitely recommend it. Even my dad, who is super frugal loves it
Those pot holders are a must for camping for all the pots that don’t have a handle (backpacking sets) there are other similar for camping but they scratch the pots specially if they’re nonstick, also when you’re cooking on the fire pit no other holder is going to save your hands, if you’re solo camping and eating directly from the pot just lock them and there’s your semi-permanent handle just don’t cook with them on, less things to wash when there’s very limited water available. I’ve used them extensively and feel very comfortable and safe. I use them at home too, getting a hot pizza from the oven on the pizza tray and I can go on and on.
After your reviews, a purchased the corer and the bag keeper. Love both. Thanks for the reviews.
I like you're content man! I watch every video you put out.
I bought the gripper clips over a year and a half ago, and I love them! The silicone heads pop out for cleaning and the spring between the handles comes off easy to really clean inside the handles if they get dirty. I use them for microwave and my air fryer food. There is a different set on Amazon that are all metal and they are meant for deep pots like the Instant pot liner, steamers, and the larger pots on stoves. I have both sets, they both work perfect. The green ones sit right next to the microwave and air fryer. I use them the most, at least every other day.
I recently bought the gripper clips. They work great getting stuff out of my air fryer oven. Very pleased with them
I'd definitely be a bit concerned about the bag dispenser being held in place by the adhesive backing. Less that the tape itself will fail, and more like it would just rip the paint right off the wall. 3M doesn't mess around when it comes to their products, from what I've seen. Their adhesive based products in particular tend to be consistently chart topping in product testing, I think. Has two attachment points I think it was? That would mitigate the risk a bit,
This is such quality content.
How are you not at 5 million subs, yet?
It really is! I'm never in the kitchen yet im here watching someone review kitchen products
You’ve got some brown stuff on your nose 🤓
@@John-Doe-Yo They don't call me shit face for nothing!
it's the sunglasses. too terrible to let him crest 1 million
i can answer you simply and easily.
being a millions subs youtuber require 3 things.
1 - overreacting constantly on what your doing or what's going on.
2 - constantly pushing your subscribers on top of what is going on (AKA, calling and asking the subscribers constantly when you try something. Wich is extremly annoying but mandatory for big youtubers.)
3 - being not honest and push everything to the top to get money in return and reputation sharing from sponsors/creators of what you'r showing.
fact is, this channel do the complete opposite of this. That's simply why he will never go at the high level of youtubers, but that's also why some people love him and his job.
All my youtubers i m subscribed to are not overreacting and such. they are cool guys doing cool stuff. and pretty much none of them (only 2 or 3) have 1 millions subs or more.
I bought the grippers. Used them yesterday to take the grate out of my gas grill after I finished cooking. Worked just fine.
I'm def getting those grippers. I'll use it with my airfyer oven. Pot holders just are too big and currently just fold up paper towels to get the tray out.
Love ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ that apple corer!!!! Glad you tried it
Old hands make it hard to use a standard ap - but I think that handle might be the ticket! Thanks!
I have that exact bag dispenser, though I got it for pretty cheap, maybe half the price. Being in an Asian household, we have all sorts of plastic bags galore, so that thing is actually pretty useful for clearing a cabinet that would otherwise be filled up with bags.
Oh that bag dispenser is PERFECT for me....I haven't used a real garbage bag in years. Always felt like a waste to just chuck grocery bags that had no issues like broken handles or holes. Saved a fortune on trash bags.
The bag dispenser has existed for years. I bought one in Ikea, some 15-20 years ago. Still use it too 😊
I don't care much for corers but that one with the trigger looks great, and the caddie I would totally get but hanged with some screws.
We have a bag dispenser and love it, ours is white plastic and is a bit narrower which I think is better since the one you got looks like it may be hard to pull out bags if it gets really low since the bogs might get lost in the bottom, they are super nice and simple though and replace having a bag of bags
I've had a similar bag dispenser ( I looked and can't see the brand, but it's identical) for at least 16 years. I used screws to mount it and it's still working like a charm. Definitely got my money's worth! The apple corer looks great. I like baked apples, so I wonder how it would perform if you don't core the apple completely?
I wonder with the apple corer if you could use a pairing knife to make a small cut into the center then push it down to where the cut is and only some of the core will come out
@5:13 You'd have to plan forward in this case.... how are you going to put the plate down? You can on the edge of your counter... but what about putting it near the wall... the handles point downwards....you will have to half-way switch over to the other position...... But i like them! i think i'm gonna order a pair!
I like all products you tested ! I'm sure I'm going to get all 3. I come here if I'm thinking on buying a product . Your my go to before I buy.
Oh I am so tempted by those gripper things.
They've had those clamp things in Japan for pots and pans for quite a while it helps with the storage cuz it's just the bowl and then the handles are removable.
6:20 like that sequence / walking test. Made me laugh and showed my wife too.
The gripper clips would be great if they had ratcheting locks on them. As someone who has arthritis in my hands, the ratcheting lock mechanism would be great for me. Still gonna grab a set as they are for the air fryer. I have gotten so many pot holders dirty from grabbing the hot trays and sticking them into the food.
the Gripper Clips look like the clips on jumper cables, had a baby with an old fashioned eyelash curler :)
Always enjoy seeing kitchen gadgets😍
A few years back, I designed a bag dispenser similar to that one, out of wood. You would put the gags in a slot at the top and pull them out from the bottom. I sold every one I made at the Flea market.
I have that corer and man does it work well. Sometimes I don't get all the seeds out of the apple but it's so easy to just go in and scrape out the seeds. I say this product is a cut above the rest pun intended
Instead of the gripper clips, try an Ove Glove.
Also, we've had the exact same bag dispenser mounted to the pantry door for about 15 year. It's only ever used the adhesive and it's never fallen off or even budged slightly.
I’ve had the bag holder for 10 years and going strong. I’ve had the apple core tool for 3+ years and still as sharp as new (medium use).
I love the longer videos these short ones leave me wanting more :/
I've had the grocery bag dispenser for 10 years and it still looks great and we use it daily.
The gripper clips work great for removing the instant pot liner
small suggestion.
you should give a comparison try to various heat detector (thoses kind of pistol that you target some heat/warm zone and it tell you how hot it is.). they are very various price range and style. i m curious tosee if they all work nice or if some are way off compare to others.
With the gripper clips, you should have used trays and plates full of food. No one takes out just an empty plate out of the microwave.
I watch all your reviews, whether I would use the product or not just because I love the way you do it! ☺
The grippers remind me of what we used as Flight Attendants back in the day. Entree dishes we cooked were very hot and loaded onto trays that were placed into the meal carts. When we served inflight we would use a similar item to remove the hot entrees and onto the meal tray, peel off the foil and to the Passenger. We looked good doing it and no burnt fingers. Entree dishes were stoneware style which held onto the heat. Not sure I would be comfortable living a large plate or pot with them.
Gripper clips are great for taking the liner pot out of a pressure cookers or ninja crockpots
We use those style grocery bags for our cats poo so we have a dispenser mounted next to their litter box. This is very handy except for the fact that occasionally they end up pulling all of the bags out 🤣🐱
I watch the majority of ur reviews and enjoy them all. While watching this one I literally said out loud I have that lol. My bad dispenser is in my pantry so I'm not to concerned with finger prints. But yes the adhesive is not very good. I'd also suggest using a washer when installing.
Would like more information on the apple corer and cupcakes if I heard right.
All these gadgets were great
I really love your reviews. I will probably buy bag dispenser.
I'd love to see a review for the youtuber hyped up Helix mattress. I know it's probably a long shot since it is a mattress after all but I'm so curious if they are worth it.
Ha ha I use it to cut a hole in my biscuit dough to make airfry donuts!! But it's great for apples too.
That apple corer looks effective, I might pick one up.
The new apple corer looks like a very scary version of something a gyno uses 😬
I like the bag holder. Same like you. Where would I put it that it would be in the way in my smaller home?!
PS. I see your AF. Who do you like yours? I have the Nija 3.5. Mine gets too hot so I need to lower the temp and it cooks most things in half the time suggested. 10-15 min. Baked Pot. 40 mine. Wow. Wish my “Done” beep was louder. It’s a small beep.
I use the gripers to remove the pot from my instant pot. Both grippers have lost the gripping pads so they don't work as well and you need to use 2 grippers.
Oooh I'm gonna get that apple corer. I've cut myself trying to poke the core out of the one that I have. Only downside is that it looks like it might be wasting a little bit, especially on smaller apples. .
Long time subscriber here. Great review as always but why do you have a fabric cover on your microwave handle?
My grandma had a grocery bag dispenser that had a similar idea, but it was made out of cloth rather than metal.
Yep! I have a cloth bag with a hanging piece at the top and it’s on her inside of my laundry room door. I’ve had it for years but I still end up with too ma y of those hated plastic bags - I try very hard not to use them as I prefer my reusable bags - husband won’t change!🤭🤭🤭
I have the apple corer and love it. I just cut my slices after coring.
How about you don't get the bag dispenser but switch to linen bags or any other non plastic alternative? Great video ☺️
Thanks for another 👍 review!
Just by chance, I found your site and Grippers purchased it on Amazon. It arrived the next day, and when I used it (today), I was very sorry that it was too unstable and solid. Immediately, we did the return procedure. Unfortunately, it is a product that is not recommended for others.
In NY there are now no plastic grocery bags. If you get take out food you may get one and Tops sells their unusable grocery bags packaged up.
I have the apple corer and love it. Then you can peel the apple if you want. The other gadgets look great too.Thanks!
I used bag holder for about ten years until California banned single-use bags. I thought it was great. I have one recommendation when using it: hold the bag from the sealed end and fold up to the open end. This forces the air out. *IF* the bag has air in it, once in the unit getting compacted, the tend to burst along the seam, ruining the bag.
Been using the apple corer for about 4 years now and it's still going strong
Hi dear, I always tie a knot in such plastic bags before I store them, I think that makes it a little easier.
Keep up the good work and thanks very much.
In our country people are very against plastic (pollutes the oceans extremely badly!!) and so I reuse every bag until it falls apart, so to speak ;-)
XXXXXXX Pinkie
The last item to me is “a no go” :) i use better quality bags with wooden handles for reuse.. i never buy plastic bags….
does the core cutter work on plums?
The non-slicing corer would be good for making baked apples
Most of the containers tested with the gripper clips would be easier to hold with silicone mini potholders.
Should check out the scrub daddy line of products! Now available at Walmart!
A while back when there was a Bed Bath & Beyond where i live they sold those bag dispensers and they were charging 45 to 50 dollars for it i was like you're crazy for charging that much for something like that.
I am wondering what people's favorite apples are - mine is Gala.
The corer also seems like it'd fit the 4th criteria of a good kitchen gadget - easy to clean. Cause if you spend more time cleaning the gadget than it saves, you won't use it.
Now do Ridiculously Complicated ones ! Lol
Have you done an airfyer review with ninja and casori?
One more question - What did you do with all those cored apples?
Not sure about Casori, but he's reviewed the Ninja Foodi air fryer.
@@xxgn I found it, thank you
The best ideas are often simple 👍
I had the Simple Human bag thang... I loved it!
Simple Human products, however, are a bit pricy for those of us on a budget. Mine was a gift for a new apartment, so I didn't realize the price until I tried to replace it. (It was in a box that the movers lost. 🥺)
Regardless... The quality is worth the price, IMO.
you know many peelers are made at an angle, mostly to get just the skin off something but also for this purpose, take your apple peeler and stab from the top to the bottom and then to the other side still from the top, might need to do it 3 times to full cut around the core but once your done you can push it straight out.
I have the bag dispenser..it hols alot..
i have adapted a small round wooden block to put it throw all the way
I got anxiety watching you lift the full pot of water on top of your glasstop range.Not sure why I shared that.😜, 🙏 thanks for another great review!
Ah, I guessed the apple corer right on twitter but didn't get the holder. I thought it was gonna be like a olive or cherry pitter lol
ty for your videos im not a fan of the bag dispenser those bags get grungy unless u use them once only lol you cant keep using them over and over again. best to use the cloth bags and wash them
The worst with standard apple corers, is that you can’t get the core out and it rarely takes the whole core out. I love this new one if I want the apple in one piece. If cutting it in two is OK, the best corer in the world is a melon baller spoon, leaves the apple so pretty! I use gripper clip a lot! Esp for lifting out the Instant Pot inner pot and straight walled bowls. I do own a different type though, which is made from thick, brushed steel, works great for many things the green one isn’t too great for. LOVE THEM! Got mine cheap on aliexpress.
