The another day I picked up a kitchen gismo called the "Pasta Magic" and present I allowed it to stop the admirableness that is my pasta condiment. After judgement the results of this supposed time-saving device, I have to bestow it a cordial thumbs-down. Actually, not simply do I have to elasticity it the thumbs-down, but I truly poverty to.
Opening it up and superficial at the contents, I saved two containers, two filter lids, two lock-down sealing lids, instructions, and a thermal cloth covering that's whispered to back you not hurting your paw spell running out the water you've basically in use to brown your food. I'll go through with each of the components, because I have thing to say give or take a few all.
The containers are stalwart enough, and they don't gawp glib to tip ended. They have a rim in a circle the foundation to save them straight. They have one big chink in somebody's armour that I will cover in a tick.

The colander lids....suck. I proved for a piece to get the one I previously owned to 'snap' on to the jug and failing. The thing was, I couldn't communicate while I was doing it whether I was failing at it or not. There was no snap, and neither was in that any indicant that they hadn't been hard-pressed on as far as they could.

The two lock-down sealing lids seemed satisfactory at first, but they don't seal with a chink either, so it's not definite that they've been adjustment all the way.
The remit are the selected piece of the whole package, certainly. They are limpid and terse and recount accurately how to use the gadget.
The thermal cloth covering has no traction to it on the inside, so spell you are difficult to empty out the river from the Pasta Magic, the arm slides up and hair the cuisine cylinder.
And that leads me to what happened and why this state of affairs really is ineffectual.
I made the pasta as instructed and ready the full up 10 written record catalogued in the tips (it says 7-10). I took off the sealing lid and, gripping the thermal sleeve, unsuccessful to pour down out the fluid. Although the effortful lid was designed to act as a collander to deformation the pasta, I decided that this was the original instance I'd previously owned the Pasta Magic and so I'd have backup and put on in the hand basin. Well, the thermic arm slipped, the marine hard-pressed up in opposition the arduous lid, which knocked it off into the collander and, the container not having any variety of pouring spout, the fixed near-boiling dampen poured on my manus. I filter-tipped it rearward upright, and tried to fish the arduous lid out of my collander so I could flood the food in its stick and deep-fried my fingertips further. Eventually I got that improved out of the way and poured the alimentary paste so I could yield a aspect.
Horrible. Some pieces of alimentary paste were steamed thoroughly, whatever pieces were chewy, whatsoever pieces were 'al dente', and a lot of it was marooned equally. I tested to wrench those pieces obscure near a cutlery and it was perceptibly undercooked.
We proved to eat it well. Some folks have the thought that alimentary paste should be sticky, half-cooked and tasteless. I'm not one of them.
* Physical quality: Poor...the lids don't grab on, and that's the initial unusable portion of this gadget
* Ease of use: Poor...the arm doesn't foothold the way it inevitably to and the cylinder requirements a heavy opening of few sort
* Results: Poor...the pasta was truly rather bad
So that is why I say "Pasta Magic makes sad pasta". Don't buy this except as a payment to the relatives you hatred.
On the plus side, we're active to use them to hoard food on the countertop. Maybe the intact goods should be remarketed for that aim.
