Re: Spaghetti Cooker Seen On Tv........Any reviews on this
I personally do not have one YET! I have seen these on QVC and I trust what they sell. It looks simple. I know with noodles, You boil the water, Add the pasta and cover (Turn off heat) and let it sit for x-amount of minutes. It sounds like the same principles! I would say go for it

Re: Spaghetti Cooker Seen On Tv........Any reviews on this
I seen them at Walgreen's the other night. So if you do buy one, go there to get it, so you can return it if it doesn't work.  I took back a egg extractor I bought there. I seen them on TV and had to have one.....thing blew and egg all over my kitchen. It extracted it all right..but I wasn't expecting the bomb effect.
I got one of those ShedEnder tools the other night over there....liked to have ripped my poor cats hair out. She screamed something awful when I ran that through her coat...so it goes back next trip.

I saw one of those on sale some where for around $4. I was also wondering how well they work.

Aggie gadgets of all gadgets person bought one of these. Yes, they do work. However, I wouldn't of bought it. Spaghetti is still a little stiff after swirling around in that thing.
If that doesn't bother you go for it. It's easy, hardly no clean up and it does cook spaghetti.

Re: Spaghetti Cooker Seen On Tv........Any reviews on this
I have one but havent used it yet lol you have to pour boiling water in it and it has this wrap your wrap around it(has velcro and is thermal I think.I know its an insulator to hold the heat in) anyway you wrap that around the cylinder and wait 15 min.I got mine 2 months ago and still have yet to try it out.lol

The Dollar General has them and I have to think if they were any count, they wouldnt have them yet, BUT I could be wrong. I have to admit I look at them longingly when I pass that aisle. lol :P

Re: Spaghetti Cooker Seen On Tv........Any reviews on this
I have one and so far am not impressed. The spaghetti is mushy - the hot dogs are not cooked enough for me. That was all I have done so far but will probably never use it again
