- Wow.
Oh my gosh.
Why can I smell dog food?
Hello, today, we're testing another haul of kitchen gadgets,
part of a massive playlist here on the channel,
so please check out the rest of the videos
after this very video.
Today, thanks to Emily on Instagram,
there's a company called Temu, cha-ching.
I've not heard of them before.
They're a lot like Wish.com.
I've done some of those on the playlist already,
and yes, some of them have arrived.
(dark music) Oh my gosh.
All right, so as always, before commenting down below,
please consider that some tools can help people
with certain disadvantages in the kitchen,
and generally help them carry out certain tasks,
however, with Temu and things like Wish.com,
with the price, I would probably recommend you get something
a bit better quality, but hey, that's our role today.
First up, nice quick one, these are some silicon air fryer,
or I guess you could put 'em in the oven,
cake pan liner things, 30 for 80p.
And it's not the most exciting start, but look,
this video right here was me in the supermarket last night.
That was 25 very similar things, two pounds 70.
Ultimately, as long as it works,
and it looks absolutely fine,
then that's actually a bit of a bargain, isn't it?
So we're gonna just quickly air fry our cake.
(upbeat music)
Anyhow, let's clean a salad with a cool tool.
This, for the bargain of one pound 49,
I am gonna wash all of these.
I'm not gonna show you that scene.
Looks like a hat, it's not.
It's a kitchen washing basket,
but will it get my Barry Lewis seal (hums) of approval?
I think this is actually quite cool.
You could probably 3D print this as well,
massive shout out to George who's helping me
with the second round of 3D-printed kitchen gadgets.
Expect that one fairly soon.
We need a salad for one of the other gadgets
in just a moment, but I think the best point
for this would be to add in rice.
You know when recipes and when you're cooking rice,
and generally, it's best to wash it through
until the water runs clear?
I thought I'd just add some water.
Look, it's all cloudy and murky,
so we can pour that water away.
(water flowing)
See, the rice is not going through those holes.
(water flowing)
I just did that like, four times and it is way better,
but obviously, you keep doing that.
I blooming love that.
That is so simple.
For like, just over a pound, that is a bargain.
Now we need salad.
Yeah, so you know you buy a bag salad
from the supermarket and you hear all those stories
about slugs and stuff being in?
I was gonna say, "Oh yeah, that's never happened to me,"
but you never know.
I don't always look when I'm eating a salad. (chuckles)
But this for washing the salad,
(water flowing)
that is amazing.
We've got our washed salad.
If only there was a way to enhance it
with some olive oil with a spray bottle, hmm.
That's where this comes in, and yes,
that does actually say edible spray bottle.
(imitates munching)
It's generally come in a package that looks
like someone's already held it.
It's like, oil stains on it.
It feels secondhand.
They had a variety of colours available,
because it should come with a funnel, apparently.
I opted for blue.
There's no funnel?
No.
It's supposed to come with a funnel
to make pouring in your fluids easier.
Others give you uneven spray,
and oh, the cake might be ready.
I haven't even checked.
It's probably burnt.
Ours gives you 100% continuous spray, look at that. (laughs)
I don't really want a continuous spray.
We can try it, though.
I filled it with some water so I can clear
through the actual spray nozzley thing.
Gutted about the funnel.
That would be really helpful.
Let's just say you've got aftershave.
That's quite wide, look at that.
(sprayer hissing)
Wow.
It is quite hot in here today, so yeah, I'll do that.
Oh, wow, I feel like I'm in Disney World.
That might not make sense to a lot of people.
Salad, ooh.
I wanna enhance it.
Olive oil.
This is some red wine vinegar rather than balsamic.
Oh wow, look at that.
Put our nozzley nozzle on.
This actually doesn't feel
like the worst quality for what it is.
It feels like we're gonna put aftershave on a salad.
(sprayer hissing)
(laughing)
Heston Blumenthal does fish and chips
in one of his restaurants.
I forget what that is when they actually spray like,
salt and vinegar mist into the air
to give you the experience of being by the seaside,
and I'm getting that, I'm getting vinegar vibes.
So it smells like a jolly old portion of chips
by the seaside in the UK, (chuckles)
but tastes like a washed salad.
That'll do, though.
That's two gadgets with that.
That's actually quite impressive.
All right, just wanted to show you the cake.
I've just put a skewer for it.
It has genuinely worked, it's held its shape.
Yeah, they've worked, they're liners, they'll do the job.
So normally with the gadget videos,
I sign them and give 'em way to patrons.
When I've done Wish ones in the past,
they've been like, "No, I'm not sure if people want it,"
but these are genuinely good today,
so good luck to the patron who gets that.
I had to buy some random stuff whilst I was on this website,
and I picked up these eight pound men's foam running shoes,
because they looked bizarre.
(plastic rustling)
Oh my gosh. (laughing)
Oh, it feels like foam, all right.
Wow. (laughing)
I've gotta be honest, they don't feel,
I've actually worn far worse shoes for a lot more money,
like, maybe very comfortable for walking around the garden,
just puttering around.
It just feel like it's pinching a little bit,
but they're just bizarre looking aren't they?
Look at that. (laughing)
I might keep them on for a minute.
Anyhow, in this box for eight pound 48, boom,
this is a one piece electric tin can opener.
It says restaurant battery operated, which means
you can only use it with batteries from restaurants?
No, it's just apparently just standard AAs.
Now, I've had one of these before,
a lot more expensive than this,
at least double, and not all of 'em have this.
It's got a magnet which will hold the lid.
Right, let's open a few tins.
Do you know what that's going on there?
There's like an indent.
Like, is that where you put the batteries?
(plastic clicking)
Ah, I think this is where the Temu thing like,
it's made obviously in bulk in a factory,
but they might offer someone to be able to put like,
their company logo actually in this bit.
I bought some chicken breast in a tin.
I have never had that before.
I thought it would go well with our sprayed salad.
We've got a standard height tin.
We're gonna use this on a filling
for something very simple in a bit,
but I've broke the ring pull on it intentionally,
and I thought I'd do one more
where I've got the ring pull off.
I just snapped this a moment ago, and it's like,
"Oh no, I can't open my tin 'cause it's half gone."
Just checking the instructions.
Yeah, we just line this up so that sits in here,
and hopefully, we'll have a can of chicken.
(device buzzing) (upbeat music)
What?
Oh no, why? (laughing)
Did you see it kind of went woo?
Why did that not work?
(device buzzing)
Oh my god, stop.
(device buzzing) (upbeat music)
I can smell something. (device buzzing)
I don't know if it's the motor burning out or the chicken.
(device buzzing) (music continues)
Why can I smell dog food?
That has done it, that has done it, that has done it,
but why isn't the magnet helping me?
Help me, magnet.
(can clinking)
Oh my gosh.
Oh, Boston would love that.
I hate anything like this,
like spam, anything processed.
Oh my gosh.
Oh, and there's jelly in there.
Quite salty.
So let's try it again on our scenario
where we've broken our ring pull.
Locking it right in.
I'm putting it tight, okay?
That magnet.
(metal tapping)
(device buzzing) (upbeat music)
Has it done it?
No it's not.
What has gone on there then?
(device buzzing) (music continues)
That isn't looking good at all.
(device buzzing)
I think I know what it is.
This rubber bit here is a little bit faulty.
It's actually bent, can you see that?
Oh no, that's what-
Oh, Boston, oh my gosh. (laughing)
Sorry, it wasn't me, it was these massive shoes.
No, that's bent, it's completely bent.
(upbeat music) (banging)
(device buzzing)
I love how during that scene, Mrs. B just walked in,
grabbed a drink, and shook her head. (laughs)
Just walked back out like, "What are you doing?"
(device buzzing) (music continues)
No, I think it's broken, folks,
but at least we got one tin out of it, and to be fair,
these things can sometimes be incredibly useful.
But all the ones we've used in the past haven't been a quid.
- Whatever are they?
- They are eight pound trainers.
- They look horrendous,
like you are trying to be some kind of shark boy.
- How the tables have turned.
- [Mrs. B] Is that a bit that's fallen off of them?
- [Barry] What?
- [Mrs. B] It's that a bit hasn't come off of them?
- Oh that might be from a tin note, actually.
Oh my gosh, Mrs B, yeah. (laughing)
Look at them.
For two pound more, and they've just checked,
these are now discontinued.
This is a slightly different screenshot.
It won't even take me to my original item.
Breathable, lightweight, running shoes, 10 pound 27.
Fashion, mate, it's fashion.
(plastic rustling)
Oh, look at these.
- They must be good if they've been discontinued.
- Oh, look at that.
- They actually look, they are the same as this.
They've just put a different top on.
- Yes, that's fabric, though.
Oh wow. (gasps)
They are actually really comfy, they are.
- [Mrs. B] They look so bizarre.
- Ah, this is fashion.
They they look a bit big for you, Mrs. B.
- [Mrs. B] Just a bit.
- I would wear both of them again
if no one saw me wearing them.
This for three pound 98, which comes in so,
so many different colours, is a dumpling, moulder and maker.
It's fairly self-explanatory.
We'll give it a clean, and that'll be that.
We put our pastry in here, press it down
to get the perfect shape to do our dumpling press,
and from the Wish video, one of them,
I actually had one of these separately,
but we should then be able to turn that over
and put our filling in.
It gives us an actual scoop
to get our filling neatly portioned into there,
and this thing is basically just called a cord buckle,
and that goes in the end here,
and I guess that's to hang it on a wall,
and that's literally all that does.
It's not telling me to do this,
but I do wanna add a little bit of flour.
All right, here we go.
This feels very lightweight, but we'll push it down.
Oh wow.
Okay, I'm on.
Ah, I need to help it.
I shouldn't have to do this.
Don't tell anyone.
Let's try that again.
Oh wow.
Oh wow, oh wow.
That's better.
That's good.
It's slightly bigger for that, but we'll press it in anyway.
We'll then get the scoop.
Now, this is some dynamite hot chilli. (laughs)
Press that over, and oh look, it's exploding out.
Can you see that?
Too much filling in that,
however, it has encased the rest of it. (gasps)
And if we take, a lot of people say,
"Barry, what is your favourite kitchen gadget?"
One of the most popular questions I get asked,
and it's gonna sound quite boring,
but kitchen scissors is.
I know it's not the most crazy thing, but look at that.
It's like a little pasty.
Well, there we go, the three pound 98 dumpling maker.
(laughing)
It did the job.
(grease sizzling)
Mm, that's all right.
This next to Mrs. B.
on the screen right now is an automatic,
although it's not automatic,
toothpaste dispenser that was two pound 18,
again available in a variety of colours.
So I wrote to Mrs. B,
because I don't think this is gonna work.
I've had a little look at it already.
- Nice colour.
- [Barry] Thank you.
- Okay, so we can put it on the wall if we want.
- [Barry] That's not in English, is it?
- No, I go by the pictures.
- [Barry] Yeah, it does wall mount.
On the back, there's a big sticky patch,
so if you wanted to keep this forever,
you could literally just go boom up there.
- [Mrs. B] It matches the kitchen.
- [Barry] It does, doesn't it? - Yeah.
- If we want toothpaste in the kitchen.
(Mrs. B laughing)
The top here, the toothpaste should sit in there,
and it's just a plug.
There's no thread in it, it's just a silicon plug.
So the aim is that you put your toothbrush in here,
and push through, and then it will get toothpaste out, okay?
- Okay.
- [Barry] Good luck.
- Thanks.
(both laughing)
I'm just pushing it in.
Is that right?
- [Barry] But I don't get how it's gonna do it,
'cause there's no pressure coming from here.
- [Mrs. B] No.
- [Barry] So I'll leave you with it.
- I'm getting the instructions.
- It's genuinely my toothbrush.
Anyhow, since the start of this video,
there has been something on charge,
and it's actually a bit dangerous,
'cause, well, I'll show you.
This for nine pound 48 has been on charge USB style,
is the wireless portable blender.
Like, genuinely in here, there are blender blades.
Actually- (Mrs. B gasps)
- It is working.
- What?
- Look at that.
Ready?
- [Barry] Yeah.
Oh my gosh,
that is like a massive ice cream dispenser.
(Mrs. B laughing)
- [Barry] How is it doing that?
- I have no idea, but it is.
- That is crazy.
That smells amazing.
I wanna brush my teeth now.
Anyhow, I'm gonna try and use this smoothie maker.
That's cool it works,
right? - It works.
- But that's your lid,
and then obviously, if you wanna drink it
so no bits, major big bits that is, come out,
but let me get rid of this cable to show you.
Look, this is lethal,
(blender whirring)
but this is like, pretty cool.
It's even got like, a little hook strap.
Yeah, so it's a 380 millilitre capacity
for less than a 10 pound portable blender,
but it does boast a little bit on the box.
It has got some harder vegetables in there, such as a carrot
and an apple, which is not gonna be that easy to chop up,
so we'll start with two easy things.
In case you're wondering, yes, I did opt for pink,
and I did have to open this tin with my manual tin opener.
And here we go.
If we double click this.
(button clicking)
Oh no.
Oh no, the weight of the pineapple is not making
the motor go, what?
I do not wanna muck about with this,
because as bad, this does not bode well, does it?
As bad as those blades are, they are sharp.
(blender whirring) (laughing)
Look.
(blender whirring)
(button clicking)
Oh no, it's jammed.
What the heck?
That is ridiculous, come on.
Let me try putting a little bit of milk in there.
Let's help it.
Let's give it a little shimmy.
Let's take the weight off the blades.
(blender whirring)
There we go.
(blender whirring)
It's just giving up.
It is giving up.
(blender whirring)
It's moving on its own, and it's given up.
It was literally starting to move.
Right, I think that's as good as we're gonna do.
Mm, nutritious, and look at that.
There's still lumps of pineapple in there,
and pineapple, you know, it's not the hardest thing.
Well, that tastes really bizarre, wow.
All right, let's do something a bit silly, no lid on,
so we're gonna drop the strawberry straight onto the blade,
which should help it.
(blender whirring)
Wow.
(blender whirring)
That actually sort of worked.
It kind of went pfft.
Again, just maybe a little bit of moisture
in there to help it.
(blender whirring)
So we'll just strain that through,
some old pineapple pulp as well.
Yeah, it's all right.
But it says it could do a carrot,
and I don't like the sound of this.
(blender whirring)
Well, it half cut a carrot. (laughing)
(blender whirring)
So if you ever need a carrot cake, this could be for you.
Right, last one.
It is this four hole marble coated non-stick pan,
and it's designed for doing eggs, omelettes,
pancakes, burgers, and steaks.
You cook bacon in it,
you could just cook whatever you want.
It's basically a frying pan with divided sections.
I don't wanna go too crazy on it.
And I do love the point on here where it says,
"Non-stick coating, safe and healthy,
easy to cook, easy to leave stains." (laughs)
I really feel like leaving some stains today.
Look at how damaged it is, it's amazing.
That is some industrial strength tape on there as well, wow.
Ah, here it is.
(laughing)
Is this the, what?
Oh, okay, yeah, you generally have a screw on here,
and we've got to put that.
Of course, we've gotta do it ourselves.
So I'm gonna need to wash this and go get a screwdriver.
Well, here we go then. That looks a little bit weird,
but I've spray oiled the four sections.
I've also got some pancake mix here, my omelette mix,
and I thought I'd cook some bacon up first, actually.
I want to just to kinda get some peace of mind
with this pan a little bit, I guess.
These compartments are very small.
So let's try the pancake and the omelette.
(eggs sizzling)
You can see the bubbles forming in the pancake already.
That's when you normally need to start thinking
about flipping it, but I'm hoping I can get under it.
(food sizzling) (upbeat music)
Ah, it's tricky, it's tricky.
Oh my gosh.
Oh no.
(food sizzling) (music continues)
Okay, we'll do another pancake.
Although I've had worse, you've seen that. (laughs)
There, look what the bacon did to the pan.
Let's get under it.
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, here we go.
(food sizzling) (music continues)
Yes, yes.
We've done the omelette.
Ooh, running the spatula underneath it.
(food sizzling) (music continues)
Oh my gosh.
It's not the easiest thing in the world.
(food sizzling) (music continues)
Look at that.
Bit of pepper in the egg as it cooks.
So symmetrical, isn't it?
Omelette, eggs, pancakes, and bacon.
Yeah, bacon's all right.
The omelette, which is nicely charred both sides,
it's fine.
Pancake feels a bit tough, a bit chewy.
And the egg, ooh, with a nice char char charred bottom,
it's still hot.
Oh my gosh, that was still hot.
Mm, it all tastes a bit panny.
I can't explain it, what?
I mean, it tastes like the frying pan.
I gave it a blooming good clean.
It sort of worked.
And remember, there's a massive version of that
where I've done like, the whole breakfast one,
you know, you do sausages, bacon, and everything in that.
I think if you do one thing
and stick to one recipe in it, it's pretty cool.
The patron that gets that, I'll sign the handle,
and yes, I will unscrew it for shipping.
But on the whole,
these have all been pretty darn stonking, in their own way.
If you enjoyed this video, don't forget to check out
the rest of the kitchen gadget playlist.
It goes on for absolute hours.
I wanna know what your favourite one is today.
I actually think this was my favourite one.
The worst one I think was, unfortunately, this,
but maybe it has potential
if that wasn't so bent and broken.
So cheers for watching.
Remember to give the a video a like
and subscribe if you did enjoy it,
and I will see you next time.
Ciao for now.
I'd like to apologise in advance
that even by watching this video
if you now get loads of adverts for this company.
It's just a small fraction of the amount
that I've had ever since I placed an order, so.
(upbeat music)
