I can't decide which one is better -The Range Server or the Decanter?????

I think it will depend on your personal preference. I bought the Range server because it allowed me to purchase the glass coffee dripper to go with it, which I felt was safer than the decanter which appears to have a plastic dripper. I prefer the glass better than plastic, though the glass dripper does have plastic right at the bottom.

I already had a coffee maker and just wanted this to reheat coffee in the microwave during the day - depends on whether you want to make the coffee and serve or just serve after making. Also had someone who only drank decaf and I can make a second batch of decaf and have ready to serve along with regular. Like the lid on the server.

The max if given a choice. Escort will likely support it better since it's their newest product. It had a few bugs when introduced, and they may have fixed them by now. I own both, but put the max on the shelf because I didn't have time to do the upgrades to fix the minor stuff that I had problems with. Range was same for. Oth but red light camera locations came up quicker with ix

It's very odd how many people take the time to respond to questions simply to say that they don't know the answer, isn't it? Having just returned a Cuisinart TOB-40 due to an electrical circuit failure after just one year of light use and replacing it with the Breville, there's notable difference in the Breville's cooking efficiency and uniformity of heat radiation. The quartz heating elements are far superior and the 'smart' heat distribution function seems to perform as advertised. I'm hoping to get similar improvement in durability over the disappointing Cuisinart TOB-40. The Breville is actually a bit smaller than the TOB-40 externally but doesn't sacrifice functional interior room and outperforms by a quite higher margin.

I used the thermal decanter from my no longer working Cuisinart grind 'n brew machine when I bought the Oster. It fit the Oster perfectly and my coffee stays fresh, hot and no burned taste.

If all you want is regular coffee, the Keurg would probably be a better device. It takes us much less space on your countertop than the DeLongi. The DeLongi is really designed to do espresso shot-style drinks and does a excellent job at that. It can also do regular Americano-style coffee, but has a small water tank in comparison. You will find yourself constantly refilling the tank if you do a lot of cups of coffee.

Like John, I to have only used the Hiker Pro. I had a MSR that I thought was the best until I sat next to others with the Hiker Pro. They'd fill 4 water bottles to my one. That was enough to convince me to change. The Hiker Pro is very easy to use and VERY fast. That's my two cents...

im torn between them as well. was going for the bar32 because the listed price was higher so assumed better quality but i've been to the DeLonghi website and they are both for $99. so i wonder where did that $210 came from? lol . but i think im still going for the BAR32 though.. just like it better i guess...

I am not sure there is any real difference in them. From reading the description the only difference I see is the II comes with a stopper and wine pourer. It works great on both synthetic and real corks. Works much better than the oster and puts on a show while doing it.

Greetings and thanks for your question. I'm not aware of a published review directly comparing the two. My best advice is to by speakers (soundbars) from manufacturers who are speaker specialists rather than those which make everything including TVs and CD players. The Sonos is a truly wonderful sounding bar. Thanks again.

I'll try! My original classic grater seems to have been different than what is offered now. It had a reversible handle (so it was easier for lefties) and I'm pretty sure it had two barrels, however, it was new 10 or so years ago and I think I purchased it at a Pampered Chef party...perhaps they have a special design. It looks to me like the main difference between the classic and restaurant style offered on Amazon is the size of the hopper and the bulk of the plastic it is made from. I went with the restaurant style for exactly those two reasons...we like a lot of cheese AND we use it a lot. The original grater was great (pardon the pun) but the handle did eventually break. It's just a few dollars more and well worth it. In my experience they are only good for hard cheeses and chocolate...I think that is what they were designed for. One hint, if you are grating and there is still cheese in the hopper, but it seems like it's not working efficiently...open the hopper and turn the cheese over so it's grating against a flat edge instead of a rounded one and viola! it's cranking out the grated cheese like crazy. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

I've used mine for several parties and church events and it functioned very well. It is not as fast (heating and cooking) as the commercial models and the holding area is smaller. I think I would want a larger /faster unit if I was going commercial.

I understand your question and concern, and would not use an old decanter for the same reason. It should be leaded, but it is not. There are at least 4 manufacturers today in Europe certifying they are lead free, and inspection verified ( Technischer berwachungsverein, or TV is one ) and documented as such. This manufacturer is one of that group, and I accept that certification. The decanter looks very good in our living room hutch, and I get a few nice compliments on the shape and the lines. I keep a good Cognac or aged premium Cachaa in ours. I hope this is helpful.

I have the silver and have been very happy with it. I would suggest spending the extra money on something like a rotisserie or a kettlepizza

We went for the 840 Infuser, I read a lot of reviews and having a stand alone grinder of good quality is better all round than having one in the machine.I'm sorry to say I haven't found a grinder that I like, so I grind in the store with a professional grinder, I'm not prepared to pay for a professional grinder (yet).Plus the infuser is idiot proof and it makes great coffee, time after time. I do feel it needs cleaning more often than our last Breville but I'm ok with that.

imo the torrent sx and mk 177 by crosman are both better than a 760 and a 664 gt and all 4 are by crosman and the same price range.i would say the 760 is the worst performance wise out of the 4 but its also the cheapist.

Sorry but I have never actually seen or used the Crosley so I can't say which one is better. I did return this one however because the push buttons on it were so small it was difficult to operate correctly.

Lorraine, I do not think that there is a whole lot of difference between the two models. I own the variable speed version and I happen to use it at the upper end of the speed scale most of the time. About the only time I've really needed to slow it down was when I was sanding some non kiln dried pine and found that the higher speads heated up the wood and the sap began to run (a lot). At the lower speads I was better able to sand the pine without having as much sap run and therefore clog the dandpaper. If you don't want to pay the premium for the variable, I'm pretty sure in day to day use you really won't see the difference. However, my opinion comes from a hobbyist woodworker.
