[@Annie1962]

7 second rule

[@Del-Lebo]

Thought the same thing! haha

[@studiokadaver]

I literally went to the comment section to make this exact comment 😂

[@magenta629]

We love Bailey. I love how she was patiently waiting at the start of the video but clearly had enough of you not sharing by the end.

[@nsos28]

I've always seen that weird pizza peel used to pick up spilled condiments on countertops. Had no idea it was supposed to be a pizza peel

[@nashjonas]

That's what I've seen it being marketed as for like a decade.

[@chobies5383]

[@plantagardenforever]

Same!

[@Falcodrin]

I don't think it's been marketed as a product before more as a science experiment not ready for mass production with this being the first commercial iteration I believe ​@@nashjonas

[@belialbathory2299]

I saw it advertised as a NASA invention for spills that can pick up anything.

[@JMcKey21]

I would think the Pizza peel should be tested with fresh dough.

[@feverpitchcourtside]

100 percent should have been and is the only application it would be intended for. No one needs this for frozen pizzas.

[@michmirich]

the channel 'emmymade' reviewed this with fresh dough. She hated it and shes an eternal optimist, so you know it was bad.

[@feverpitchcourtside]

@@michmirichand she’s far worse than him. She clearly forces this and ruins the item. Beyond that, this is one of many options out there for this and this item is clearly trash.

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

Also this doesn't have sharp edges and fresh dough is only a few milliliters thick. Even the thick wooden peels have a sharp leading edge. Also, what kind of psychopath bakes their pizza straight on the oven grill? It's not gonna bake evenly.

[@JohnHartmanEsq]

I went straight to the comments hoping someone would point this out. It blows my mind that he completely missed the point of this product.

Hi Freakin' Reviews, I've been subscribed to you for at least 2 years. You have the best reviews for so many reasons. 1. First of all, you actually use the products and show it. 2. You give pros and cons. You frequently go through the advertised claims and give your opinion as to whether or not the claims are valid. If something doesn't work well, you make no bones about it. When something works well, it seems that you incorporate it into your life. 3. If you have a competitor or comparable product, you do comparisons. You provide a full disclosure, stating the age of the older product so it's clear that you're comparing a new product to something that may have some age and wear & tear on it. 4. You provide updates on the things that you've used for a bit. This is great for the purposes of durability. On Amazon, a lot of the reviews lot of review are, what I'd call, surface level. A reviewer just received the product and it looks good or the reviewer has used it only once. Sometimes a reviewer will say that they'll provide an update in a few months after they've used the product for a while, but when I look at the date of the review, it's several years old. The reviewer never provided an update. Your updates are invaluable. A lot of times, things work great right out of the box, but start breaking down after a few uses. 5. You review a variety of items. Some are a little goofy, but most of them are practical household items. So, I greatly value your reviews above all. With all of the above, in mind, I would like to ask if you'd review Power Spin Scrubbers. I'm an older woman with very serious back pain. I was nearly bedridden for 13 - 15 years until I found a genuine pain management doctor (There are a lot of doctors out there who are not properly or adequately trained as pain mgmt doctors. When you get a genuine pain mgmt doctor who started Med School AND was trained in that discipline, you'll know it.) After 13 years, I had a lot of muscle atrophy and it took me about 2 years to get onto my feet, permanently. Roughly every 6 months, I have to have medical procedures to remain on my feet. So, I try to do whatever I can to avoid stressing out my back. This is the reason I'm interested in a decent Power Spin Scrubber. It seems they are helpful in washing bathtubs and floors (linolium, tile and perhaps wood). Is there any chance you could incorporate a few of these scrubbers into your schedule? Thank you so very much for your reviews. I just watched a supposed review on one of these scrubbers. Ugh! It wasn't a review at all. It was roughly a 30 minute review with these women blabbing about the product, saying nothing of value. After some fumbling, they got it together and then showed each of the 6-8 scrubbing attachments spinning on the end of the device. I spent about 5 minutes watching after I skipped through to their unboxing and then skipped here and there until it was clear their review was a waste of my time. If you already did a review on these scrubbers, I apologize. I happened to see this review and started writing. If you already did a review on these scrubbers, I'll find it. Again, thank you, Freakin' Reviews for your excellent reviews!

[@Bandzior1337]

A sale tactic to solve a problem you never knew existed.

[@djtreq]

It's really for fresh dough situations, not a pre baked crusts or frozen like he had. I've seen enough fail videos to know that transferring a fresh dough with toppings is tricky and liable to complete messes. But it would seem that if one made enough fresh pizzas to warrant getting that thing, they'd probably have figured out the transferring skill by then.

[@ShirlBussman]

Me either. I have it down pat how to get it done. 🐣🐣🐰🐰🐥🐥

[@leonard5606]

I don't put mine directly on the rack always a pizza pan. 🍕🍕

[@wesman6445]

The noise that pizza thing makes is a torture device.

[@blairhoughton7918]

The sliding peel is absolutely great for putting loose, raw dough in the oven. Once you get the hang of holding the yoke steady while sliding the tray back, things just drop onto the stone. Way less stressful than worrying a square mm of your dough has stuck as you're yanking a wooden peel. Picking things up with it won't work so well (build your pie on it), but you can pull out cooked pizzas or bread onto a tray or cutting board with tongs. It's zero value if you're doing frozen pizzas, but so is a regular pizza peel. You really need floppy, potentially sticky dough to see the difference. Bonus, because the dough doesn't have to slide you use less flour on the bottom, so your pie contacts the stone directly and cooks better.

[@Fox_RZK]

I feel like it's a great idea that clearly works, and if anything the biggest issue looks to be the build quality. They'd have a better time convincing someone that it's a good product if only they made it feel less flimsy than it seemed to be, even if that meant making it a bit more expensive.

[@grahamjohnson4702]

@@Fox_RZK Go tell that to the Chinese that make it.

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

Ideally, home made pizzas should be baked in two steps (you first bake the dough with just the sauce, then you add the topping and bake again) because home ovens cannot reach the temperatures of a log oven (around 400-500°C). The excess flour is necessary both for the peel to work and so you don't burn the dough.

[@valerief1231]

The Stanley cup caddie would be more appealing if it had a lid you could pop on it, but I agree with your feelings on all of those!

[@maryjane4432]

I got my daughter a strap for her Stanley cup and it makes it so much easier to carry around. She also has a snackie drink cup with a food container and she hatted it. It’s so big and bulky.

[@wendig3258]

Omg. That was so funny when Bailey tried to snatch that chip right out of your hand!!!😂

[@jefferyneu3915]

No thank you! Yet another solution for a problem that doesn’t work!

[@TVChipss]

Bailey was banking on the pizza hitting the floor

[@sgrumb]

I use the Safe Grab as the microwave caddy. I leave it in and it's always ready for use. Never gets too hot to hold any plate or bowl.

[@robinoconnor553]

My cats HATED the sound that pizza stone made! TBH, they aren't wrong.

[@mikemotorbike4283]

Put tinfoil on your oven floor by lifting the element when cold. It will save cleaning- just change tinfoil. I use an extra-wide tinfoil roll. Make a lip around the perimeter to catch liquids. Trick with pizza is put it on a little wire rack before placing it in oven. Easy to remove.

[@CrazyWildChris]

my mom has the microwave caddy (in red) and before I moved out I use to use it a lot it's real helpful

[@davidbgreensmith]

I love how Bailey photobombed the pizza shots.

[@bradasstv]

Happy Easter James and family! 😁

[@hiddendrifts]

the sliding pizza peel sounds like it's made of raincoat fabric or smth

[@blairhoughton7918]

Similar polyester texture but this is stiffer.

[@hiddendrifts]

@@blairhoughton7918 i wonder if that's really the best material to use for smth like this, or if it's just the cheapest thing they could get

[@marks7502]

Bailey is the picture of subtlety

[@michaelpeterson6208]

Are potholders such an absurd product?!?! Also, i just use the cardboard that the pizza comes on for frozen pizza.

[@gobbletegook]

My $12 aluminum pizza peel works just fine for over 20 years. And super easy to clean up

[@finkelmana]

I never needed help getting a pizza in the oven. Hands work fine for that. Getting a hot pizza out of an oven? Never needed more than a spatula. As for getting hot plates/bowls out of a microwave, a tea towel usually works. Oven mitts for hotter or heavier items.

[@rf159a]

The pizza peel sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard😖😖😖

[@lindao7887]

Re: Microwave caddy holder: They need one that fits frozen dinners - rectangular, they get really hot and some leak and they also bend - they're dangerous! I like these caddys but, don't care for the price, (egads!) I just use paper plates, they don't hold the heat, not real firm, but they work ok. Thanks for the review!

[@SuperChicken666]

Pizza on the floor? That's what pets are for.😊

[@mickm6309]

That Stanley cup holder needs to come with a longer straw to put in the cup otherwise it is going to be very awkward to drink out of the cup, especially when it gets to the bottom.

[@kathykrisko3228]

I was surprised he didn't show trying to drink out of the cup with the tray on there. It looks really awkward, even with a straw, like you couldn't get it very close to your face and would have to kind of lean over it.

[@mickm6309]

@@kathykrisko3228 That is why I was thinking you need a longer straw. For me, I just don't see the point and the other 2, I think the pizza thing is to flimsy and the microwave caddy maybe useful, but I rarely use the microwave nowadays. A lot of things I used the microwave for, I now do in an oven type airfryer.

[@shelleyeastman606]

​@@kathykrisko3228I was thinking the same. The snacks would spill when you are awkwardly trying to take a drink.

[@metern]

You're supposed to use the Pizza Peel on raw pizza dough before backing. That is what that idea was meant for.

[@metern]

The mini version of the device is meant for thick liquids like mustar ketchup jams and honey, and stuff like that. I have one of the small types and use it every time i spill something on my counter 😉.

[@ferrellsl]

The sound of the Pizza Peel is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

[@travellingslim]

Guess I'm old. When I heard "Stanley Cup Snack Tray" my first two thoughts were: the hockey trophy should be big enough on its own to hold snacks, no? and only a handful of people in the world can make use of this product because who has a championship hockey trophy? Times are changing I suppose.

[@chrisshowering7357]

I love watching all of your reviews I am always recommending your channel.

[@Dee_Just_Dee]

*_Pizza Peel:_* Looks like it's one of those items made by a bunch of different manufacturers, so the build quality can be kinda hit-or-miss. And it looks like its sheet is made out of the same material as reusable baking mats, which would explain the discoloring, which should be totally fine. Shame about it having an edge tear so quickly though. *_Microwave Caddy and Stanley Cup snack bowl:_* Wow, those are wonderful. And I'm glad to see someone's also making a bowl for the 30 oz Stanleys.

"This handle doesn't feel very stable" You're carrying a pizza, not a bowling ball.

[@aiwindel3304]

Honestly, the way you shoved the peel under the pizza to pull it out of the oven is EXACTLY the same as you would use for a regular peel. Using that same exact motion as at 5:17, I've never had a problem pulling things out of the pizza oven where I worked.

[@Anonymously-speaking]

I have a question; did you actually drink out of the Stanley cup with the snack tray attached? It looks like it would be very awkward especially sitting down.

The Pizza Peel is a great idea but still needs more Refinement. 8:40 My wife and I make that kind of Ramen on the stove. Ramen Cups are OK for the microwave. But whatever makes you happy. 😏

[@theend1555]

A good rule for kitchen gadgets is: if you don't see it in a professional kitchen, you don't need it. You just need to learn how to use the much simpler and cheaper version that has been in use for decades. Like the pizza thing, ever seen that in a pizza shop? No, they just use a regular pizza peel that cost like $10, lasts forever and is super easy to clean.

[@julieoelker1865]

The pizza peel is basically a pizza TRAY with a handle on one end for sliding only. Once your pizza is on the tray, carry it like a tray, NOT by the handler.

[@RaynmanPlays]

The sliding pizza peel is such a great idea with such awful execution.

[@Synister29]
