2014 Key Ingredient Recipe Reader

I love it, i can take snap shots of recipes fro magazines and have then at one touch of my finger. can not wait to put all my recipes on it.

You have to pay to add your recipes something I didn't realize before buying also you can take a picture or download the recipe you send it to them and then I guess you pay to have it added. Very confusing not what I wanted in the end.

Kind of difficult to navigate. Many of the features you want to use with it requires a $20 annual membership & taking the photos of the recipes comes out very blurry so it's a pretty useless way to try and store the recipes. Haven't figured out how to add my own recipes on the website on a computer, have to do it on the tablet and that takes forever. Also, the tab that supposedly allows you to add Cookmark as a favorite website so that you can click on it whenever you want to add a recipe from a site online never works. A box pops up and it appears its loading, but nothing happens and the recipe is never transferred. Had higher hopes for this product.

Would like to give this a 3.5 stars so I opted for three instead of four. I had the old Demy that Key Ingredient first came out with. I loved it until it finally died. Then it revived itself, but I couldn't get any uploads. In any event I thought I'd give this a try. I like that it immediately went and got all my info as soon as it was connected wirelessly. What I don't like is that instead of storing your recipes on the machine it is storing them in the cloud and therefore you have to always have a connection to get to your stuff. This is great, but when the Zombie Apocalypse comes, I may not have a connection, but I still might want to cook. :)) I absolutely hate the new format that lists the recipes with their pictures, instead of just an alphabetical text listing. I don't have pics on most of mine because it's a pain to upload them. Now you have to scroll down through all these graphics to see the tiny titles beneath. If someone figures out a way to change this I would be interested to know. It operates very much like an Android phone so if you have one of those you won't have a lot of trouble getting around. The printed instruction manual is useless since it was written in China by folks that don't have a great grasp of the language and pigeon English isn't my native tongue. There is a nice feature that I got all excited about called Recipe Snap, that allows you to use the camera on the device to take a picture of a recipe and then upload it for transposing. Great idea except that it costs 1.00 each time you want to do that and can take up to seven days to show up. How helpful is that??? I have hundreds of recipes that need entered, so I guess I will be doing it the hard way through the website. Speaking of the website, it is probably one of the slowest I have ever encountered for doing data entry. The voice feature is an interesting twist in this new machine. It may be helpful if you can hear it. I have mine turned up as loud as it will go, and it is still kind of hard to hear over my commercial grade exhaust fan. I like that you can pause it, do a step and then start it again. Need to look for some screen covers as this seems more fragile than the screen on the old model and it is already splashed and messy after one day. All in all I am glad I got this for a reduced price and I think it will work fine once I get all the outstanding recipes caught up and entered. I would not have paid the original 150.00 asking price. I just noticed that Key Ingredient has lowered the price on their website to the same one as here on Amazon.

So far have liked having the recipes suggested in the cook book and handy in the kitchen. Don't like that it takes a few days after adding a recipe to view that recipe. I also don't like that with so many recipes in the cookbook that I can't bookmark what I have already seen in browsing the many recipes.

Nice product,well worth the price

Really a cheap worthless tablet that couldn't even access the supposedly proprietary recipe database. The only reason it gets one star is that it was easy to return.

Basically a cheap tablet withe key Ingredienc app on it. Can download App for free on any device!
