Professional Quick Food Defrosting Tray and Thawing Plate, Red

I havent even used this yet but just handling it you know its well made. This works effectively as a heat sink where it draws the cold away. Other comments mention it losing its finish a bit after dishwashing, this is a brushed and anodized aluminum piece... it warns to not put in the dishwasher. Hand wash it as you would a cutting board etc. I cant imagine having any issue with this, my one and only wish would be that it could serve to be a bit larger so you can fit a couple 1-1.5 lb tbone steaks on it at the same time etc.

I often forget to defrost meat for dinner that day...and I hate the microwave defrosting. It's uneven and tends to cook corners. Today, I got out a package of two 1/2 inch thick pork chops and put them on the defrost tray. One end of one chop was frozen curled up and didn't touch the tray, but the rest did. 90 minutes later, they were completely defrosted.They might have been done sooner, but I left the house and didn't get back to check for that long, so it's a win for me. The next test will be chicken, and I'm not sure how hamburger will work, but on flat cuts of meat, it does a good job.

Every kitchen should have one of these!

This quick food defrosting tray is a life saver. You come home from work and realize you forgot to take meat out to defrost, well now I put my meat on this tray and it doesn't take long and I'm making supper. I love this tray, I use it almost daily. I feel it is also healthier to put meat onto tray and defrost and make the meat right away, then set in sink for any hour and then transfer meat to fridge to finish thawing out.A real time saver.

it works, but doesn't meet up to expectations. It had a beautiful shiny stainless steel look when it came out of the box. Although it is supposed to be dishwasher safe, it lost all shine and is splotchy after first time in washer. I almost sent it back, but it does reduce thawing time. Also, it was 3 times more expensive than the black thawing boards I have used for years and will buy in the future. Even those, after long time use and washings, do tend to have the black coating start to chip off.

Some things were purchased out of necessity so I don't think "love it" is appropriate. Some items were for gifts--if I knew the product, I marked "love it" and if not I marked "liked" based on research. I love the dishwasher magnet because it helps my husband know what's clean and what's dirty. I do love the Tenderflake because I grew up with pure lard pastries and wanted to bake with lard again. My son surprised me with the Tenderflake and I "love it" because it definitely makes better pie crust.

This product is absolutely amazing. I would leave the house for the day and when I returned an hour before dinner and realized that I hadn’t taken anything out for the freezer for dinner. Pulled this item out of the cabinet and put the meat on it, and amazingly it is ready for cooking in an hour or so I’ve had it for quite an long time and it still hurts like it was brand new

It's a beast. Heavy duty material and works better than the lower generic ones, which my old roommate had back in the day. I don't like useless kitchen gadgets, since I'm a proficient cook. Yes, I worked in the food industry in the past and my kitchen is always geared to cook and entertain. Although, I don't like freezing my meat, but sometimes I bulk buy or have a lot of different types of meat giving to me. (if you hunt or deep sea fish you know what I mean)This is definitely a good tool if you have frozen meat to thaw.
