You may wonder what this function is the 6th sense? Then, the function sensto sense is an innovative feature for which you simply select the food you must prepare and weight. Then the oven is on its own!
The function allows you to grill grilling and browning the surface of food that will cook.
Cooking perfectly homogeneous is given by this wonderful oven cooking ventilated.

Whirlpool JT 369 WH user review
Oven ordered and arrived after a mishap with an online store that made us wait several days and then handed Bozzato ….
in the end anyway we ordered elsewhere and it ‘went well ….
Withdrew on Monday evening and already ’successfully tested the dish crisp (sofficini and chips): the sofficini completed in 4 / 5 minutes is not less than the classic baking (I do not like fried in a pan …) and idem for chips.
Also try steaming (chicken breast for my son) and ‘a system for oval containers of maximum width of the oven that allows you to put food on a plastic grid in the main container with two fingers’ s water …
A note now and not too good for ‘that had opened under hinged opening and then as conventional ovens should not be placed too high in places … for example we have spent over 4 drawers and oven (thus about 140/150 cm high) and not ‘just and convenient to remove the dishes.
Grill function in the media … or brown under grill and not micro ‘never the best!

I received a gift of well-known home Roomba 555 I-robot.
Apparently useful, I used a week ensuring the cleanliness of the rotating components every time because I realized that especially the hair create significant problems (you twist the brush, etc …).
Clean extra careful (it seems impossible that there is any dust that is in the container).
After a week I noticed that the brush out of the seat tray that holds it in place had broken and was also partially damaged the door of the drawer. Probably it was passed under a cabinet that has a low shelf.
Well, you say: just buy spare parts!
Nothing is more uncomfortable, I had ordered over the Internet in the province of Ravenna, pay by bank and wait ten days of operation to another.
This is because unless some type store Fnac Saturn or not there is a network of technical assistance as other brands.
Between shipping costs and spare parts kit (complete as the individual parts cost more) + 60 euros a nice flip!
Now required to operate where he works but I’m very alert to the next “break” I do not know if it will regain other parts also saw the cost.
To use the hair problem before the passage of the Roomba swiffer cloth with his broom and took off most of them.
In doing so I discovered that Roomba works best even if he can find out more.
Council still cleaning of rotating parts at all times especially for those with the problem of long hair or animal hair.
Irobot Roomba 555 user review
Jump features and go to the point:
Benefits
- Works
- There is the house (almost) clean when we return from work
- It fails to go anywhere
Disadvantages
- If the house is “complicated” on different floors, stairs or rooms difficult to Driving instructions to be moved from time to time
- If there are too many obstacles (chairs, cabinets, vases …) where you can not go to the end should go over with the vacuum cleaner and then is useless.
- Cost of acquisition
- Cost of maintenance (drums, brushes …)
At the end I think befits those who have a simple house, maybe on one floor, and rather bare, in this case the result is acceptable and can be used for daily cleaning, not cleaning the “deep end of the week.”
Only advice is to start and then go out for several reasons:
- If you’re in the house is cluttered
- Is rather noisy
- It takes a long time and this may irritate because one thinks “I would have finished in five minutes”
In two words if the house is simple with the Board otherwise the time it takes to move that hinders, place it on a different level and clean will do the cleaning.

Ahhh … and in this heat than anything else to do but turn the air conditioner DeLonghi?!? Even in dry or ventilation, not I’m forced to live with the penguins!
Well … this conditioner is excellent in all respects. Let me explain why!
First aesthetically is white and his 7000 and slightly more BTU cools a room with no problems. Has an external small measuring just 66 inches wide!
We wanted a little something on the floor because the window the maximum width was 75 cm. Unfortunately, in Venice you can not install anything on the wall, otherwise fine!
The outdoor unit is also white with a grid for the part facing the wall, while in front there is a dense lattice of round shape. (Okay, like any external drive, I know … but it is always worth repeating!).
The indoor unit is not excessively large. It has the front panel is removed to allow routine maintenance very easy and fast. After the panel there are two grills where you can find the carbon filter. This should be changed every time Finally, there is no charge, unfortunately.
The noise of the indoor unit is virtually nothing in my ear and also comparing it to the other two conditions in the home of 11,000 BTU.
That gave an initial external vibration problem, but the coach has isolated more simply on the unit and noise is more than gone.
Let’s say, if we compare the noise of other EU, DeLonghi produces a quiet hum at all annoying!
So nothing particularly troublesome for you and your neighbors! And so neighborly relations remain beautiful and quiet and this is an immense good!!
The air conditioner wall being attacked by a U-bracket twisted iron by only 5 screws, so installation does not cause holes in one thousand or more. And through the conduit wires are brilliantly hidden. The hole that we need to practice to pass all the wires is small (do not ask me to quantify the size … but unfortunately they are not good at these things).
In this forum we are well past 4 cables: one big for the drain (which was brilliantly and ingeniously attached to the gutter!), Two for the pump and a cooling pump for heating and ultimately electrical cables from connect from the outside to the inside.
Ah, I forgot: This condition is that the pump cooling and heating are both Class A (a real pleasure for its portfolio !!!).
Also the air conditioner has three lights that indicate each a different function: the first from right, is one that indicates whether the air conditioner is turned on or not, the second indicates the cooling and the third, except, that for heating.
Now we come to the remote, only thing in my opinion does not deserve full positive opinion!
Why? Well, simply because the buttons are extremely small! I, who have long fingernails, is struggling to press the right button.
However there is a timer function that allows you to turn off or turn on after a certain amount of hours chosen by us!
Beyond this of course can manually select the desired temperature. They are also key to select sleep (which turns off automatically after 6 hours by increasing the temperature of two degrees). Then there is the button that moves the fins and the button click if you want heat, ventilation, dehumidifying or cold (with three fan speeds. Or automatic mode).
To me it has all the options needed to live well in summer and in winter!
The price then was very convenient … just bought at 299.00 MediaWorld thanks to a promotion. Ok, even if you do not win the price was great.
The installation cost is only 240.00 euros thanks to the 5-year warranty package (two basic and three others offered by the manufacturer + standard installation (but I think even non-standard but not very complicated) offered by DeLonghi.
For we have not paid anything in addition!
Ah, well, all the installers I contacted previously departed from a low of 300.00 and then I saved here too.
Ahhh … now you are fine and the night we, I and my companion, go to sleep peacefully and without mosquitoes coming from every window! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh ..
I hand him his advice, an excellent product that offers very cheap!

I’m here to tell my experience with this technological contraption I eased the life and flesh out the wallet!
From time to meditate on the family purchase, but many had doubts (which grew in excess of escape by running an eye to the graveyard of appliances that occupies most of the shelves in the kitchen! All beautiful, all very useful … after all unspent ‘ initial enthusiasm!)
But that Saturday two months ago my mother was tough and when you put one thing in mind … there’s no way to reason with her!
So we went first to a big supermarket. They had 5 models, each representing a broad category of money, I’ve seen that from 50 € to get around on about € 180 … but my mother wanted the choice, so we returned by car and we headed to the Media World.
I discovered that there actually exists for every taste and every pocket. Faced with so much choice confused I asked for help to the contract, to help the truth I was not. When I asked “Can you tell me a bit ‘its features!? That differences have!?” raising his eyebrows told me “make bread, not much difference … the maximum weight of bread you want to do” then stared. well … what about … help! then I rely on common sense: take a known brand and reputation, an intermediate price, and that satisfies me aesthetically as they are not small and I’ve got to see into the kitchen every day!
As I approached then a Moulinex Home Bread Classic (cost about 100-110 € nn remember exactly) my mother (like a spoiled child) tells me “eh, shall we take this baguette that makes your dad really like to … the baguette … there was no way to turn her … € 149 for a Moulinex aesthetically identical to that from 110 € but the same technical qualities as … with a special accessory to make baguettes.
And what can I do ?!?!? she paid him! : P
Bought this amazing subject we’re going home (with a stop at the supermarket to stock of flour and yeast!) With this huge box.
Discard and place the bread machine on the shelf (making dead space between appliances forgotten). It looks very nice, fits well with the kitchen, is a “box” (that does not sound so good!) By rounded edges, a little ‘egg-shaped, all white, with one door sula the top that opens, showing the basket, on which there is a large easily olbò to spy on the various stages of preparation of our round. at closing dell’antina instead there is a digital display which are reported: the remaining time for the preparation of our bread, the program selected, the degree of browning of the crust, the weight of bread selected, the timer to preparation and delayed the start button.

Moulinex OW5003 – OFFERS
This machine gives me several options (I have not yet fully explored).
Presents a choice of 14 programs:
1) Bread Classic -> to prepare most of the bread using wheat flour
2) French bread -> recipe for white bread
3) Whole wheat bread -> to use whole grain breads
4) Fresh Bread -> contengoni + recipes for fat and sugar (for making croissants and sandwiches with milk)
5) Quick Bread -> x super quick recipe when you have only recently available x + an hour to prepare!
6) Bread gluten-free -> perfect for celiacs
7) bread without salt -> for those who are attentive to cardiovascular risk factors!
Bread is rich in omega-3 -> ditto of 7)
9) Baguette -> x program dedicated to use the tools to make the 4 baguettes
10) Cakes -> here need to use the baking powder unlike other recipes that are used in sachets or fresh yeast.
11) Jam -> Oh yes! does that too!
12) Pasta -> to unleavened. is a function that mixes only. excellent for making fresh pasta at home or even for all those recipes that call for a mix of ingredients … and you do not like to sweat!
13) Fresh -> for dough, then knead, yeast, but not cooking (ie to make good pizza dough)
14) only cooking -> Bake 10 to 70 mins … better if you heat your loaf!
I then click the “weight” of the loaf:
1) 750 gr
2) 1000 kg
3) 1500 kg (this feature is missing in the bread machine cheaper, this is called XXL also precisely why can bake loaves giants)
Then choose the degree of “browning” of the crust of my bread:
1) clear
2) middle (my favorite)
3) dark
In this model, I also have the option to choose the “delayed start”: I have a timer that I can adjust … beautiful imposed if the beginning of the cooking at night so I wake up with the house flooded by the smell of bread still warm and fresh bread waiting for me =)
Moulinex OW5003 – THINGS TO KNOW
There are strict rules to follow when entering the world of bread machines: 1) you can not do anything .. or rather little, very little … but what little you have to do it very well.
Fundamental choice of ingredients. No matter what you are creative and good with stoves … if you do not have the right ingredients, the bread will come out which is crap na! : P
Content in the recipe is an introduction (in my opinion a bit ‘confusing) which claims to incorporate the magical world of ingredients to make bread.
Who was already in hand will have no trouble understanding the strange language used, but for me that I was living in the world where if you told FLOUR mean flour and there was just a bit of trouble … problemino solved very quickly.
The first week with a scary face or c ** I bought the flour to the bakery (which later I bought bread + !!!!)… and the bread was delicious … then I refused to repeat the figure because I had already looked askance at the first time let alone now that I am not + in his shop!
Surfing the Internet but there are millions of recipes that help even the geeks like me … I discovered the existence of Manitoba flour (which makes my bread + very good and with which I am half and half with flour classical) of rye flour, etc. etc. I also learned to put the milk instead of water alone, I put nuts, chocolate chips (which I teach you a trick!! the first time I made the buns with chocolate drops, I put the drops and stop … and they are melted and the bread was ugly! then I realized! need for 2 hour or freeze the dough before putting them e. .. that’s it! not melt! but remain quite visible and gorgeous !!!), etc. … in fact after a while you can indulge
2) pay attention to quality than the temperature of ingredients (always well reported in the recipes!) Is fundamental
3) there is a rule for all bread machines: there is an order in which ingredients are introduced: the liquid is first, then salt, sugar, flour first half dose (in particular recipes … or any time), milk powder, specific ingredients solid second half dose flour, yeast
4) the machine will beep about 20 min after the start of the program (with variations depending on the program set) that tells us that we can add time and now our only extra ingredients (eg nuts, chocolate chips)
5) in these recipes is often confusion between yeast and fresh yeast in sachets … ql even bring some fresh ingredients from the list and then say entering a dehydrated in explaining … I personally feel better with that in the bread bag … you know the less yeast is beautiful and the same!
6) write all the wonderful aroma coming out of the car … WARNING! do not be alarmed if the first few times you will not hear any of this! The smell appears to use! indeed .. the first time the kitchen smelled of plastic baked goodness … you know! but it is very normal! 
Moulinex OW5003 – COUNCIL: Baguette recipe
Our experience with the extra cost for the accessories was a baguette and tell you once … My mother has been fed.
The loaves come out so beautiful, soft, long-lasting! baguettes instead result is compact, it is to take his hand … and I am working on mini baguette! + takes much time and effort … Moral of the story … I would not recommend the additional cost of this machine only for the baguette!
30-40 € are many and are butatti! the moulinex home bread (without the word baguette) saves and is identical to this one … just missing the basket for baguettes!
And do not forget that if the form of bread you do not like … that just before the beginning of you cooking your loaf yeast extract, processing as you like + (braid, marbles, rosette, etc.) and bake in your oven!
Moulinex OW5003 BENEFITS
1) despite the initial cost will save you a lot. we are a family that like so much bread and never died less than 20 € a week the bakery … our spending is about 2-3 hours per week € … Oh yes!
2) the bread lasts a lot! even 3 days without heating! just cut the first slice (we leave open), and under the bread is still soft as freshly baked! Types of and if you like just put it in the coffee and heat up a bit ‘with the program 14!
3) you can indulge … make bread and pizza and cakes of all kinds … have included the recipe but the Internet offers an immensity of ideas!
4) you can really make various types of bread … do not give up at the first set!
5) are reading other reviews I encountered people who pointed out that during their dough bread machine moves! (Usually it was for economic models) Well this is where you put your sets! x does not travel home!
Moulinex OW5003 – DISADVANTAGES
1) Do not spend money for the model baguette (for everything mentioned above)
2) the first loaves come out soft, inviting, fragrant, but not very tasty … not return immediately to the baker! tested until you have the recipe ur gorgeous!
3) is a bit ‘bulky … if you have a microcucina … x you find them only a minute space!
Ultimately … I hope that my opinion is helpful! Run to buy! of good bread (cheap! time that TSI is not bad!) awaits you!
