what is the best for kitchen use?

If you desire very bright light in your kitchen, these are good bulbs. If you are looking for softer lighting, then you should try something else. We use these in our kitchen, which gets a lot of bright, natural light during the day, and we wanted bright light at night to have consistency. Although we are happy with it, others feel they can be too bright - we may install a dimmer to help moderate.

I an not an expert on this. I used the above light with a dimmer switch in a hutch in my dinning room. Generally I have found LED lights of this type to be more powerful and glary than the incandescent equivalents. I suggest you consult some one who really knows about LED lighting before making any choices.BK

Depends what you are used to and looking for. If you don't mind the blue spectrum, this is a nice bulb. We have the same bulb in the red spectrum in our kitchen and like them. We use the blue spectrum version in some rooms. Both put out a lot of light, work well on dimmer switches and are efficient.

Go to a restaurant supply store and buy a used Hobart. They make professional grade and quality equipment. Kitchen Aid, does not care about quality or it's reputation, they make garbage.

Use Cooks Illustrated equipment test reviews as a guide on a lot of this type of purchase Cooks Illustrated rated the Oxo Mandoline number one after their test so I bought it and love it. In another Cooks Illustrated review and the Culinary School I attend they rated the Swissmar peeler number one. The Swissmar peeler is all I use and love them. Both make good quality products don't think you will go wrong with either choice.

I really depends on what you are cooking, or for how many, or do you freeze leftovers. I think the 6 quart isi the best for all three. I think this cuisinart size is best because of the options that it gives you. You can cook for one or a party.

I have found them better for my purposes. They work on an electric stove wonderfully, and once treated are great for omelets, stir fry, cooking steakes, chops, etc. The 10" is my go to pan over even my non-stick almost every time. A wok will work better for a few thing. For electric stoves, I find these better than the flat bottom wok I purchased.

I use this in my home and the only reason you may not want to use commercially is the size. Plenty big enough for us. One batch makes good amount for 4 to 6 people...maybe a little more.

Get a v-slicer (mandoline). I read all the amazon reviews and got one. I love it. It does many of the same jobs as a food processor for less money and mess. It will take care of your veggies.

The best choice is the one that fits your needs. What will you be primarily using it for?

I would recommend a wooden bowl. The blade is very sharp and could crack/break glass and using a plastic bowl might get plastic shavings in the food. You could probably also use a metal mixing bowl if you don't mind getting scratches in your mixing bowl.

I'm not sure about the best brands myself, but I love this knife. I use it mainly for chopping onions and garlic, and for cubing meat. Slices nicely through when the meat is still frozen in the middle. The color does not peel off like I've read on other knives. Very sharp and the handle makes it very easy to operate with.

Highly recommend Circulon Elite. Have two homes, use nothing but Circulon Elite frying pans at both. Love the smaller pan for frying. Easy to flip with the curved bottom at the edges. Feel like a real chef. They clean up easily and don't scratch when used properly. Good luck with your new Circulon frying pans. CJ in CT

Like the others said, cutting board would probably be best for food prep. Its just a stainless steel top.

I've grown up using cast iron cookware...remember my grandmother and great-grandmother using nothing but cast iron on the old wood stoves... I'd recommend the 7qt - especially if you plan on only buying one size... SOOO many more options for dinner - and one can NEVER have too much fried chicken, right ?? ;-)
