Keliwa 12 Cup Silicone Muffin & Cupcake Baking Pan / Non - Stick / Dishwasher - Microwave Safe / 21 FREE RECIPES




This silicone baking pan is very light weight and easy to use. If is a great replacement for the heavy metal pans and make for a lot less hassle in removing your baked goods and easier cleanup.

I really like this product for a few reasons. First it cost less than most quality pans you can get in a store or online. Second it makes for easy cleanup. When my wife made muffins the other day it didn't take much more effort than flipping the pan over the the muffins cleanly released and didn't take much more than wiping out the crumbs to clean it (although it should still be washed properly but you get the idea)

I love that this pan is both dishwasher safe and microwave safe. We have washed it in the dishwasher but have not used it in the microwave since this is still kind of a foreign idea to me. It also is cooler to the touch than regular metal pans which is great.

One downside to purchasing this product is not necessary about the physical product itself but the fact that it claims to give you "21 FREE RECIPES". When we tried using the website provided on the packaging it wanted us to re-enter our email address before each reciepe could be looked at. Not that I don't have the link in front of me I can not find the recipes at all doing a google search. It just brings up a blank page.

Overall I give this product 4 stars. It would have been a five but the recipes promised were not easily accessible or possible not available anymore. If the title did not included this it easily would be received 5 stars!

iPhone SE/5/5S/5C Cross+ Case+Protective Bumper

I received the iPhone SE/5/5S/5C Cross+ Case+Protective Bumper recently in the mail I realize that this is made for an iPhone 5 which is almost the same size as my iPod Touch with exception to the thickness which is a difference of .01. Another difference is the placement of the Volume buttons and lack of the mute switch on the iPod which I did not realize until after receiving this product. TO make up for the lack of thickness I told the suppler I would use some cereal box card board to make up the difference. It works well to hold the cover at the right thickness but defeats the purpose of having a clear back-unless you can find a cereal box with a cool image that fits. You could also print something to size as a paper insert for a customized look. My purpose in testing tis product was to see how well it would work for my iPod and see if it would marketable to other iPod users. My conclusion is that it is not. The biggest reason is the placement of the button cutouts on the side. The buttons sit deeper in the case due to the cross piece between the two holes pushing against the volume up button thus making the side of the case bow out a little bit. The other issue is the thickness of the case. You would not think that .01 would make a huge difference but the iPod wiggles around too much and the case falls apart. If you are looking for something on the cheap end that is not bulky or heavy this may work for you although iPhone users have mixed reviews on it. I am giving this 3 stars. It functions as described but the quality of the packaging if comes in is much more superior to the actual protective bumper. #gosh Note: I received this product for free or at a significant discount in exchange for my honest, unbiased review.
