The Robo Stirรขโยข is the new way to make kitchen work quick and easy. It’s the tool that let’s you stir your food without actually having to stir.
Stirring food is such a chore! Obviously I need a Robo Stir.
The commercial for Robo Stir really makes it look like it is something that rotates in a whisk-like motion, so I was a little surprised when I got my Robo Stir in the mail and found that it really just vibrates.
Vibrates in a circular motion.
I was sure that it would be MUCH better in a pan and solve all my stirring needs, so I gathered a little help (Jana & Andrea) and we prepared to make white sauce to test out the Robo Stir.
We melted the butter.
We added the flour.
We set the Robo Stir in the pan to relieve us from the strenuous stirring duties.
I grabbed my camera and took the picture above and then grabbed my video camera to accurately demonstrate the rotational component:
Despite the missing ability to stir, the Robo Stir continued to jiggle and jump in one portion of my pan for a few more moments until…
…all three of the Robo Stir feet fell off as well.
So, if you are satisfied with a product that will give you 45 seconds of marginally helpful use, then Robo Stir is for you.
As for us, we have found a better use for the Robo Stir.
It delivers a mildly effective back massage.
Wow, I’d love this for making the roux for my gumbo! YUM!
Wow that is simply ridiculous. I love the *idea* of infomercials, but it’s never the same. I miss Billy Mays.
My 3 month old was fascinated by the videos! Thanks for the warning ๐
I saw this on a show where they test these “on tv” products. Yeah, it failed. I wish you had of seen it before buying it!
Wow. I hadn’t heard about this particular product. Works well, eh? LOL. Thanks for testing it out and sharing. I can check this bad boy off my list ๐
This made me laugh. I’m such a sucker for infomercials…I have no idea how they suck you in….but I could be convinced to buy almost anything! Great post.
Ha, too funny! Well, at least you got a nice back massager…
There are some infomercials that just draw you in and make it seem like they have the be all end all solution to your biggest household problem. This would not have been one for me but there are many others I have been tempted by over the years.
Love that it broke after not even a full use. Thankfully I haven’t bought any of the As seen on TV items but they sure make for good gift ideas for the kids since they’re fascinated by them.
LOL! I laughed so hard about the extra ingredients!! This is why I love the internet…you can find out everything you need about an item before buying it!
