Samsung 5.9 cu. ft. Capacity Samsung Freestanding Electric Range

This post was originally written on September 3, 2020, but for some reason, it never posted, since we use this every day I wanted to share about our experience with it. 


First of all, I have to say how excited we were to come across this range. Recently our old stove had the oven door shatter due to a mishap with a rolling chair so we had visited a few sites and stores looking at ranges to replace it.  No kidding we had it down to two stoves this very one and another by a different brand. 

We are used to glass cooktops so there was nothing really new here except for the 5th burner which keeps food warm (think gravy, veggies, dips, stews, etc). This fifth burner is great for family meals or for the Holidays.  We love the sleek design and the stainless steel accents, which we are totally new to.  

My favorite part is the hidden element. This is what makes the range so easy to keep clean. As a mom with children and grandchildren, we are always making meals, so clean up needs to be easy. The top wipes clean with little effort and upkeep, the inside is super easy as you don't have to clean around a heating element which makes cleaning tedious. 

I also love the controls, they are easy to use, and the light that lets others know that the cooktop is hot is awesome. All of our children and grandchildren know if that light is on the range is hot. A lifesaver for a family who likes to cook together. 



 







The oven is great and fits two small to medium pans on one shelf, my largest pan can only fit one per shelf, which is OK with me since this is the only way I have ever used it. I do wish that it had come with a third rack for utilizing the whole oven such as when baking cookies, pizza, etc. 

I only have two flaws that could be made better with future models and that is the vent under the controls on the range. Cleaning this area can be dangerous as it has sharp areas. I am used to a smooth surface that cleans just a bit easier than this. Maybe a grated area that can be cleaned without fear or laceration. The second is that the stove can not sit flush with the wall because of the plug. I am thinking of a recessed area so that there is room for the plug.

Decorative Bowl Review



Recently I was able to review a really nice bowl. It is decorative and made from thick aluminum. I am really impressed with this bowl and everyone who has seen it falls in love. Right now we are keeping candy in it which really gets it seen by visitors. It stands out and has found a place at the edge of our entertainment center as you enter our living room.

I love how versatile it is and that it will go with most decor be it your living room, kitchen, dining room, or when you are entertaining. The measurements for this are 6"x 6"x 4" and holds 14 fluid ounces. You can see in the picture above just a few examples of how this bowl can be used.

This would make a great wedding, housewarming, or hostess gift. My readers can get an extra 10% off (can change at any time) with code INYOLIVE

New Utensils and a Giveaway too



I have several sets of utensils and find a use for each and everyone. One of my favorite kinds of utensils are silicone and bamboo, or wooden. This put two of those together in my favorite color red so this goes great with my kitchen items. I love how easily the utensils wash up after use. They are Stain Resistant. I do my dishes by hand but if I ever get a dishwasher I know it will be safe to use since they are also Dishwasher Safe. 

Cooking and Baking are one of my favorite things to do with my children which is why I suppose they can all cook and bake well. None of my kids are starving as long as they can find food to make a meal with. 

I hope see these utensils in more color varations in the near future but until then my readers can enter to win a 500.00 Amazon Gift Card to get their shopping started, or order their own set below. The Giveaway ends soon so make sure you enter while you can.


Some of my readers will be able to get a 20% on the set here.

Kids in the Kitchen




We have had many children go through our home. It doesn't matter if they have been male or female each have enjoyed making pretend meals with kid sized kitchen gear. This set has a little bit of everything to make a great pretend chef. 

Even though my children are older the youngest still like to play pretend from time to time. Yes they know their way around the real kitchen but they are still imaginative to play pretend with their nieces. 

This is a great set which you can find out more about in the video below.


Toytree learning resources play food is available at my link below.

Kitchen Cleaning with affresh



One of the very best things about being a blogger is getting to try all sorts of products. I get to try out products from companies like affresh through Crowdtap, then tell my readers all about the products. I have tried out a few of the products from affresh before and have continued to use them because they work so well. 

This time I was able to try out the affresh Machine Cleaning Wipes, affresh Stainless Steel Cleaning Spray, and affresh Cooktop Cleaning Wipes. To be honest I was most excited about the affresh Machine Cleaning wipes because I know from experience that cleaning out your front loading washer and keeping it smelling clean can be a problem if you don't stay on top of it.

As a buy mom this tends to happen. Before affresh Machine Cleaning wipes we would use a rag or dirty washcloth to clean out the gunk that was on, under, and around the seals. We were afraid to do damage so we never tried any cleaners, so even though we wiped it clean the smell was still present. Well that was before affresh. Now my seals are clean and smell literally a whole load better. 


Next I was about to try out the affresh Cooktop Cleaning wipes which worked out really well. Before you go judging my stove was in storage for a year and a half and had not been cleaned before going into storage. When we first brought it to our new home, my husband and son thought we should just throw it out. 


I am a more of a fixer, reuse it before you through it out kind of person so I talked my husband into helping me clean it up. A little oven cleaner made the inside look like new while some scrubbing and wiping cleaned up the outside. The cooktop on the other hand is where most of  the damage was done due to people who were helping us placing things on top of the stove and then others pulling or pushing said things around on top of stove. Well here is it on a normal day after using stove. Then after using the affresh Cleaning wipes. Not awesome but better then it was. For a old stove it looks pretty good and work perfectly. 


Last but not least was the affresh Stainless Steel Cleaning Spray which was my second favorite of the samples sent to me. Awesome before and afters of my toaster below. I love that the spray does not drip, or run while trying to clean surfaces. Really good when you are just trying to clean up where everyone's fingerprints are. No more chasing the line of running product and then having to clean the whole surface so it looks good. Love this product. 


All in all these products passed our testing and will become apart of our cleaners to keep our kitchen looking clean and shiny for years to come.

BitElegant French Press



My husband loves French Press coffee the best so we were looking for a new glass and stainless steel Press and found one from BitElegant. It has a classic look with a nice weight to it. The glass beaker is removable so that you can wash both the glass and the stainless steel which is really nice if you are hosting.

I love that this comes with a spoon, extra screens, as well as a nice how to book for those who may be new to French Pressing, which also includes some recipes for flavored French Press Coffee's. This is a great item to choose for the coffee lover in your family and something I am glad we were able to try out years ago and fall in love with ourselves. 

Another great use for this is to make tea, which is my favorite way to use it. Either way our whole family loves to watch the French Press in action. This 34 ounce French Press from BitElegant is available at my affiliate link below.

Affresh to the rescue






Recently I was able to try out some new appliance cleaners through the #Affreshcrowd by being a member of Crowdtap. We use the affresh cleaner for our Coffee Maker first. We live where there is lime and hard water so having a product that can keep our Coffee Makers clean and running is very important to the coffee drinkers in our family. Just add a tablet and water and run through your coffee maker. Yes this works on single serve makers as well. 

Then it was onto the dishwasher tablet cleaner which I gave to my daughter since we don't currently have a dishwasher. To my knowledge it was the first time they cleaned their dishwasher. There dishwasher already looked clean but now it is super clean and they were able to run it through when they did a regular load so they didn't have to waste water, electricity, or time. 

Last but not least was the garbage disposal tablet. We don't have one but we put this in our sink drain because we just moved and one of the first things I like to do is clean the drains. Every time we went into the kitchen you could smell something funky. The smell was coming from the drain. Now that we have put one of these tablets our sink doesn't give off that unpleasant odor.

When you spend good money on an appliance you want to make sure to take good care of your investment by referring to your owners manual for care. Keeping your appliances clean will go a long way into keeping them running for years to come.

What I love about these products most is that they are super easy to use and I can find them at my favorite online store Amazon.

Hair clogs are a thing of the past



Having had more girls then boys we have always had a problem with clogged drains from hair build up. I so wish we had been able to find these years ago. These have been a complete blessing. A gross blessing but a blessing none the less. I just feed one of the daisy's down the drain and every week or so we pull them up and cut off any build up, if there is too much and we can't reuse then we just trade it out for a new one. I do suggest using one of the snakes to clean your drain before you start using your daisy to get it extra clean. I know we were surprised by how much was already down our drain before using our daisy's. 

Again these are awesome and have helped a lot. We are now in our new apartment and we have already installed a daisy. The hair catcher can be found on my affiliate link below.

Toddler Eating Made Easy


Having taken care of my own children during their toddler years and many others I would have loved to have this product from Axsels Home Ware. This is a placemat and plate all in one. It is made from food grade silicone, BPA free, PVC free, and chemical free. 

I love that this sticks to the surface so that learning eaters can eat without having their plate flip over or even better for us caregivers harder for them to pick up and throw. I like to take a wet rag and wipe the spot where this is to be used first seems to give it extra stick. 

This set also comes with a soft fork and spoon for no pain eating for your learning child. Nothing more discouraging then a child hurting themselves with a metal fork which causes them to go back to using their hands. This will give them teachable moments without pain. 

This would make a great gift for the new mom of a toddler, or anyone who needs a little extra helping hand. Easy clean up by hand or in dishwasher. 

The silicone placemat plate can be found at my affiliate link below.

Colorful Reuseable Straws



One thing to have on hand when you have children are straws.  These straws from BESU are great because you get 25 different straws and a straw cleaning brush.

They are super colorful, reusable, and have  ridges on them to keep them in your lidded cups.

You can use these in your home, work, school, play, and even for parties so everyone can tell which drink is theirs.

My 9 year already picked out her favorite, she just loves straws. I like that straws keep my teeth from being stained any more then they already are.

Sometimes you get a bad apple



Ok this is my first almost great review that is until this Apple Slicer broke on the 4th apple with the blades breaking through the plastic and causing cuts in my daughter's wrists. Thankfully no stitches needed but there was blood, skin glue, bandages to make everything better.

I am just thankful that this did not cut her millimeters away or we might have been looking at a 911 call. I was so excited to get this and loved that it was apple shaped what I didn't like was that it broke on the 4th apple when it says it is long lasting. Sure maybe we got a dud. I did contact the company and hope they will redesign their product and reissue it but MarksvilleandMe can not give this a good review as it is currently made.


Simple to Use: Very simple and easy to produce 8 Slices in a second! Start your Convenient Lifestyle From Now On! This slicer is available for Apples, Peals, Potatoes and more.
Safe & Easy-clean: Free worry about cutting fingers; Just put it in the dishwasher after use.

Durable & Attractive Apple Exterior: Made with a Stylish Exterior but Safe Design with two Easy Grip Handles and 8 durable stainless steel blades, It is designed for long time using.

CuliChef



This silicone spatula from CuliChef has quickly become my new favorite kitchen cooking utensil. I love how easy it is to wash, and of course to use it has it's own perks. Eggs flip easily, crepes look out because you are mine. This spatula is more forgiving on delicate foods which makes it great for things like eggs, and crepes, but is also strong enough for serving food, flipping burgers, or pancakes.

It has a nice weight to it and a nice hanging cut out for those who hang their utensils. Mine hides out in a drawer between use which isn't all that often.

This Silicone Spatula can be found on Amazon.


What CuliChef has to say about their product.

Mixologist World


This little gem is going to be a godsend this summer. We love fresh lemonade but it takes so many lemons to do it.

With this at least I know there will be no waste. This gets out so much more of the juice then the old way I used to do it.

This is also my very first lemon squeezer of my very own. I have used others but found it easier to just do it by hand, but not anymore this squeezer makes it super quick and easy to get fresh lemon, and lime juice in seconds.

Just cut one in half, pop it in, then squeeze.  This also comes with a zester.  I just keep my zest in the freezer in ice cubes so that I can just thaw what I need for recipes throughout the year.

Check out my review of Mixologist World Cocktail Shaker here.


This lemon squeezer and zester can be found on Amazon.


What Mixologist World has to say about their product.

Scandinovia





Unbreakable is just what we needed for our home. With having 6 children of our own and now grandchildren, keeping glass cups is just not feasible.

They are stylish, colorful, and will look great with most decor. I really like the size for breakfast. The kids love them for dunking their cookies.

I am hoping they will make these in taller glasses as well so I can have a full set. These would be great for use in home, picnics, get togethers, etc.

I love that these are BPA free.


These unbreakable glasses can be found on Amazon.

Green Earth Frying Pan




A while ago Ozeri was nice enough to send me a product to review and I have to say this is the best frying pan I have ever had. Now I want a bigger size. This is my go to fried egg pan perfect for doing eggs, one grilled cheese sandwich etc.  

My biggest surprise was that Ozeri cares so much about their pans that they send a felt liner so when  you stack your pans no damage comes to the inside surface. Can I say I love this company or it's pans any more clearly?

The inside of the pan is much different than other pans I have used in the past. I have been married for 25 plus years and have been cooking for longer then that. I have seen a lot of pans in my life and this one is unique with the honeycomb texture. Love how my food comes out of the pan and doesn't stick.

The best part is that this is a product that 100% PTFE, PFOA and APEO Free which makes me feel better about the food that is coming out of the pan after it has been cooked. Love the silicone handle so easy on the hands. No chemical smells to worry about even at high temperatures and anyone who may have let a pan cook too long at a high temperature might know that just what that horrible odor is where you have to clear the kids out and open a few windows. Not with this pan. Did I mention I love this pan? Oh I did. 

You can find this Green Earth Frying Pan in several sizes on Amazon.
