: Have you every bought anything off TV?

: I'm just curious because it has never even remotely crossed my mind. The commercials are fun to pick apart and make fun of though.

Those pots that have covers with holes in them, the covers lock into place so that you can drain your pasta or whatever by just dumping it upside down.
Yeah, so the steam expands the width of the pot, just enough to make it impossible to unlock the cover. So after waiting half an hour, the thing finally cools down, and you can remove the cover. But by then your food is cold.
I wasn't impressed, but then what can you expect when you buy a two pots for $14? Not too damn much.
