COOK'S CHOICE CKC1000 Better Breader Bowl



Works great, easy to clean
I've got one of those large, round breading items that take up too much space and don't fit the top shelf of the dishwasher. This one fits easily, cleans well, and snaps closed to eliminate flying flour. An excellent, inexpensive product.

Flour shower
I'm writing this as I take a break before I clean up the flour that is now coating me, my kitchen and even my dogs. I bought this and the Batter Pro at the same time since I couldn't decide which one I'd like better. For making breaded chicken wings I used this for the flour step and the Batter Pro for the bread crumbs. No matter how hard I tried to close it the Cook's Choice breader leaked flour all over. The Batter Pro was nice and easy to use and not a crumb out of place. Plus you actually get 2 breaders when you buy the Batter Pro. Don't waste your money-just buy the Batter Pro or use a plastic bag.

There's a 'red' circular one out there that I don't like at all (takes too much work to open and close the container, and the breading holes are at the same time too large, and there aren't enough of them).

As a couple other reviewers have noted, the cover on this one is the only possible improvement I can see. It's very nice that it pops off so crisply and easily, but you DO have to be extra careful to make certain that the cover is COMPLETELY snapped down, all the way around, before you start the shaking. It often looks/seems like it is completely snapped down when in fact it is only 90% snapped down. And then if you start the shaking, and don't keep your thumbs on the cover, you end up with your breading, fish/chicken,...
