The Work Sharp Ken Onion electric sharpener produced an extremely fine edge with no chips or scratches—the finish reflected light so well we had a hard time photographing it. A smooth edge is not necessarily sharper, but it allows your kitchen knives to glide through food to make neat cuts. In other words, it won’t tear the surface or squish the innards. The only other way to achieve this mirror-like finish is to spend at least half an hour with a series of whetstones.

The OBERLY is something very different, but not in a good way. Typically, personal blenders are designed for at least a serving of beverage. This OBERLY, however, comes a little bit short on capacity. We were very surprised when our ingredients for the protein shake almost spilled out of the blending cup.

It’s simply hard to resist the beauty and cuteness of the OBERLY personal blender, but there's a lot to consider if you're wondering whether this is a good choice.

Across all three challenging tests, the Excel both met and exceeded our expectations. Nothing we had prepared could hold it back—not the eleven types of food including fruit pits and chicken bones, and not even the tough uncooked fish scraps.

Today, we’re gonna be looking at the Cosori CO130-AO 12-In-1 Dehydrator Air Fryer Rotisserie Toaster Oven. It’s advertised as a 12-in-1. So, we’ll apply our four designed tests to see if it actually delivers.
Our tests include toasting 2 batches of 4 slices of bread back to back, baking a 9-inch pizza, roasting a 3-lb whole chicken, and air frying 12 oz of frozen fries.
Toaster ovens are on the rise as an alternative to full-size or traditional ovens. However, each model has its own strengths and weaknesses.

The Presto 08800 EverSharp isn’t the fastest or most effective electric sharpener on the market, but it’s far from mediocre. It offers only one sharpening angle and does eat away lots of steel, but given its price and performance, this sharpener is a very good value purchase.

Read our Presto Eversharp electric sharpener review to see how it’s holding up after a year and two heavy batteries of tests.
