Oster – Affordable and Quality Kitchenware

Oster makes high-quality kitchenware that won’t leave your wallet burning like your Mother-in-Law’s cooking.

Thinking about last night’s dinner, how about we imagine what Oster kitchenware you might have used to prepare it. Did you use your 22-piece Oster Baldwyn knife set to chop your veggies? This is really a beautiful stainless steel knife set that would look great in any modern kitchen. Here’s what’s included:

  • 6-1/2″ santoku knife, 8″ chef knife, 6″ chef knife, 8″ carving knife, 3″ bird’s beak paring knife, 3-1/2″ paring knife, 6″ utility knife, 6″ boning knife, 6″ cleaver
  • Eight 4-1/2″ steak knives
  • 6″ fork, scissors
  • Sharpening steel, rubberwood block

 

After chopping your veggies you might have realized that you just couldn’t get your herbs chopped up fine enough so you brought out your Oster 12-Speed Metallic Gray Blender with 3-Cup Food Processor. That was a wise move on your part, because you can chop and grind with the sharp, resilient stainless steel blade, and it even has 450 watts of power! It also has a an all-metal drive system, instead of plastic, to make the Oster blender more durable and long lasting. The BPA-free food processor accessory features a large-capacity, 3-cup bowl, perfect for chopping, mixing and mincing vegetables, nuts and more.

 

After everything was chopped and ready to go you tossed it all into the 12″ x 12″ Oster DuraCeramic electric skillet and let Oster help you finish up dinner. You love how the DuraCeramic coating resists flaking and peeling to ensure lasting use, facilitates food removal, and is even PFOA- and PTFE-free to keep your family safe.

 

Dinner is served! Delicious!

Whatever dinner you might have been craving Oster has the tool to help you create it.

If you’re interested in learning a little history about the Oster company, you might be interested to know that Oster started out as The John Oster Manufacturing Company, they were a  maker of small appliances. The Oster brand is continued today as a trademark of Sunbeam Products.

The company was started in 1924 by John Oster, manufacturing manually powered hair clippers designed to cut men’s hair. John Oster Manufacturing Company was established in the garage of John Oster in Racine, WI.

In 1946, in order to diversify, the John Oster Manufacturing Company bought the Stevens Electric Company, which had received a patent on the liquefying blender in 1922. After the acquisition, the brand “Osterizer” was adopted for these blenders. In 1960, Oster Manufacturing was acquired by Sunbeam.

Innovative Products + Fun Design = Magisso

DealDash introduced us to the brand Magisso a few months ago, and since the first few test products have been such a hit with us DealDashers they have been adding even more selection! Here is an introduction to all of the current Magisso products that DealDash is offering.

 

Magisso Double-Edged Cutting Board– The Magisso cutting board has edges on both sides of the cutting board that are designed to make it stable to use against the edge of the kitchen counter. This unique design gives extra support for the kitchen knife and makes chopping vegetables easier. The edges also keep the ingredients from spreading while scooping them to a pan. And it is easy to store upright without reserving too much space from your kitchen table. This cutting board is made from bamboo and is a great size at 35X26 cm.

Iconic Magisso Cake Server – The iconic Magisso Cake Server cutting and serving your favorite cake is easier and less stressful than ever. All you need to do is press the cake server through a cake, and squeeze it gently to lift the piece onto your plate. Release the squeeze and get that perfect piece of cake upright on your plate. This cake server has been recognized by Oprah and also featured at MoMA (the Museum of Modern Art in New York). This iconic stainless steel cake server guarantees the perfect piece of cake with no mess and no embarrassment.

 

Magisso Serving Set (includes Pie Server & Cheese Knife) – The design continues the unique and recognizable form of the Magisso Cake Server from the young Finnish designer Maria Kivijärvi. The Pie Server and the Cheese knife are both made of premium, mirrored stainless steel and is suitable for your favorite pies and cheeses. This set was awarded the GOOD DESIGN award, and would look great at any gathering with friends or family.

 

Magisso Cooling Ceramics Wine Cooler – The Cooling Ceramics Wine Cooler by Magisso is made of naturally cooling black-colored terracotta. When you need to keep your wine at that perfect temperature when you are having guests over just soak the cooler in cold water and fill it with water and ice. For red wine you’ll only need water. Water evaporates through the walls of the cooler while cooling the bottle. This keeps the wine cold longer than in a normal cooler. The bottom surface of the cooler has been glazed to protect your table from any excess water from the soaking process. This is part of the Naturally Cooling Ceramics set that also includes the ice bucket, sake set, serving cups, and serving plates  & bowls sets.

 

Magisso Tea Cups (set of 2) – They are designed with two sections, one for the leaves, and one for the hot water. The bottom is made with two flat surfaces, and all you have to do is tilt it to the leaf side when you pour your hot water, let it steep for a few minutes, then tilt it to the other side, and your tea will stop steeping. They come in a variety of different colors, and DealDash is currently offering black, green, or white.

 

 

I’m sure that you know by now that Magisso has been around since 2008, and have won many awards, including the Red Dot: Best of the Best award in 2011. Not only have they won awards, Magisso has also been featured on CNN, InStyle, GQ, and many more magazines and news shows.

Magisso Cake Server

Let’s Talk About Getting Healthy With the Magic Bullet

Are you or someone you know trying to get healthy this spring? Want to be able to show off that bikini body this summer? The Magic Bullet can help you with that.

Most people have heard of the Nutribullet Magic Bullet before. The Nutribullet Magic Bullet is a blender that is designed to be used as a space saving replacement for other appliances such as a blender, food processor, and electric juicer. The Magic Bullet is compact in size and consists of an electric blender base with a number of attachments. Here is a list of the attachments:

  •  screw-on blade attachment
  • two mixing cups, one short and one tall
  • two handled cups, called by the manufacturer “Party Mugs”, which can be used to blend individual drinks
  • lids for the cups, intended for storing foods
  • an instruction manual which also contains a recipe book

 

The Magic Bullet is easy to use and can save you time, it’s much easier to clean than a blender. Trust me- If I had to clean a traditional blender I would be drinking FAR less smoothies than with the Magic Bullet. Here is a really quick and easy recipe that can be found on the Magic Bullet website:

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Ingredients

a handful of fresh or frozen strawberries
1 banana
1 cup of ice
splash of orange juice

Preparation

First … Add all ingredients to the Tall Cup or Party Mug and twist on the Cross Blade.

Then … Lock On and mix until smooth.

Next … Drink up!

See, isn’t that quick and simple? Of course you could substitute frozen berries of any type instead of using the ice! If you like, you can also add in just about anything to power up the healthiness- spinach, protein powder, ginger, flax seed, the list is pretty much endless.
Smoothies aren’t the only thing that you can make with the Magic Bullet – you can make cocoa, egg nog, margaritas, and more. If you can dream up a drink (alcoholic or not!) that you could make in a blender, you can make it in the Magic Bullet quickly, easily, and with a lot less clean-up involved.
If you’re a person that staggers out of bed in the morning like me, and absolutely needs your coffee, the Magic Bullet can help with that, too. One of my favorite things to do is to take cold coffee that I made the night before and stuck in the fridge, add some ice cubes, and blend it all up in the Magic Bullet. Add a little whipped cream and you have yourself a “FREEpachinno” which has the benefit of not only being practically free, but also saves you a trip to the coffee place. Win-Win!
DealDash not only has the Nutribullet, they also have the Nutribullet Pro 900, and The NutriBulllet RX! Do your body a favor and head on over and check out these great space-saving juicer/blenders. Good luck and happy bidding everyone!

Who Wants to go to Hamilton Beach?

Go check out your small appliances in your kitchen. No really, get up and go look. I bet you have at least one Hamilton Beach small appliance, maybe even more.

Okay, now that we have had a little field trip to the kitchen, did you grab yourself a snack while you were there? Maybe some popcorn from your Hamilton Beach Hot Oil Popcorn Popper, a smoothie with the Hamilton Beach Personal Blender, or did you go all out and make yourself a delicious Belgian waffle with your The Hamilton Beach Flip Belgian Waffle Maker? If you made yourself a waffle, I hope you also made a yummy cup of coffee with your Hamilton Beach 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, too. Whatever snack you might have been craving Hamilton Beach has the tool to help you make it.

 

The Hamilton Beach name actually has a really interesting story behind it — You might think that Hamilton Beach is named after either the founder of the company, or maybe their favorite vacation spot, right? Well, you would be wrong on both counts! Hamilton Beach was actually founded by inventor Frederick J. Osius in Racine, Wisconsin in April 1910. The Hamilton Beach Manufacturing Company took its name from two men Osius hired, Louis Hamilton and Chester Beach. Osius did not care for his own name, so he paid Hamilton and Beach $1000 each for the right to use their names instead. Isn’t that an interesting little tidbit of information on one of our favorite small appliance companies?

Up until now we have only talked about the kitchen gadgets that Hamilton Beach makes, but they actually make a variety of other products for the home that you might be familiar with as well – a full-size garment steamer, a True Air Odor Eliminator,  irons, and many more.

Personally, my favorite Hamilton Beach product is the Hamilton Beach Programmable 5-Quart Slow Cooker. Now that we are in spring headed towards summer I won’t use it as much, but in the fall and winter months my family lives off of soups and stews that I make with the Programmable 5-Quart Slow Cooker. It’s such an easy task to chop up some meat and veggies and throw them into the slow cooker in the morning and have a delicious soup or stew ready at dinnertime.

I don’t usually make huge meals, but this slow cooker is the ideal size for a 5-lb chicken or 3-lb roast. You can choose from anywhere between 2 to 10 hours of cooking time. Once your desired cook time is complete, the slow cooker will automatically switch itself to the warming setting., which is really handy if you end up working late that night! The Hamilton Beach Programmable 5-Quart Slow Cooker stoneware vessel and lid are dishwasher safe, which makes clean-up extra easy.

 

I hope you and your family enjoy Hamilton Beach products as much as my family does. Head on over to DealDash and check out what Hamilton Beach products are coming up soon. And remember, if you don’t end up winning the product you want you can always BIN (Buy it Now) and get all of your bids back. Good luck everyone!
