midea air fryer 3

REVIEW – Recently my stove top has decided to have an existential crisis. All of a sudden the burner of the stove top has decided to only work on High heat without the inner section ever turning on. The middle back burner can’t decide if it wants to work full blast or not at all.

amzchef cooktop 3

REVIEW – Here at The Gadgeteer, we’ve reviewed induction cooktops in the past. I reviewed the Sunmaki 316 single-burner cooktop and Danny Welsch reviewed a two-burner model from AMZCHEF.

waterdrop x16 1

REVIEW – For as long as I can remember, we have had one of those floor-standing 5-gallon water dispensers in our house. You know the kind: big, heavy, 5-gallon jugs that sit on top of a dispenser that dribbles out water 1 cup at a time, slowly. I had to jump at the chance to
