I unbox and test kitchen gadgets, to review and see if they are any good. Will this corn on the cob thresher work? I test an onion chopper and slide graters too.

All lol
all of it
I love how this KZheadr hasn't quit for 12 years.
why would he even quit?
@@abhigyan4892 I'm just saying that because some KZheadrs have quit/died.
Same
@@LiamFrancisOlartebro really said „/died“ 💀 (Rip to them all tho)
@@LiamFrancisOlartemy man have bill to pay
This corn thingy is not for sweat corn but for the hard one that's used for popcorn....
Also it should be used with the low RPM setting of a drill.
yeah that makes more sense
The first 1st item; ✅ - dried corn and lower drill speed 🙄
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING
Ah yes sweat💦 corn
The slap chop gadget could be really useful for disabled people as well as the other gadgets which i don't find many people considering
That's the only people I'd suggest it for, learning to properly use a knife to dice and mince gives far better, consistent results. Though a small food processor is better. It's also a huge pain to clean, at least the version we had, which opened on hinges to reveal the blade.
I can’t stand these slap chop gadgets at all. They seem to get stuck, or just completely mangle what they’re supposed to be chopping.
"Pretty cool huh" never gets old ❤

Same as the piano toon in the background@@DaveHax
@@DaveHax ᑭᖇᗴTTY 🅒🅞🅞🅛 🇭 🇺 🇭 ?
Uh-huh you can say that again
the first gadget is supposed to be used for dry corn which is hard almost as a rock so you can feed the corn to animals
Correct
Great point man
The drill thing is for fully ripe, dried corn as a grain, not sweet corn.
underrated comment
@@brothergodzillaits not underrated 😭
@@pacmanO91712 Ahem! Proof?
@@brothergodzilla lots of folks have said it lol
@@spicybeantofu ok so who asked YOU?
For #2, the veggie chopper- my mom always cut into quarters first & the chopper was successful
Nice! I think the veggi chopper is a really useful and reliable tool.
"Pretty coom huh" -my 4 years of pure bliss returns
Lol
the corn drill is for dried corn lol
Thank you so much for taking the time to do the research and order the products that you highlight on your channel. I never miss an episode because you're always so nice and thorough with your explanations. And I have ordered some of the items in the past. Thank you again for all you do.
I also have a veggie chopper, it works great and is kinda fun to use. I would also suggest at least cutting it in half but quarters work better for larger veggies like onions
It's nice to see videos still coming out from you, even if it's been more then ten years or so! Just wanted to say, I hope you still enjoy what you do, and it'd be nice to potentially see more DIY-type videos, like the older ones? Anyhow, if you're reading this have a good day!
UNDER 1 MINUTES ❤👍 Edit: For the corn thing in the beginning you are supposed to use dry corn 🌽
I don’t know if anyone has said this but with the corn drill, it’s possible you’re drill is spinning way too fast meaning there’s way too much energy hitting the kernels There’s nothing really I’m using to back this up, just my thoughts
I think the first gadget is of raw dried corn.
I still enjoy listening to your piano playing Dave 😊🎹🎶
Music by Kevin MacLeod.
for the first one you had to use dried corn
Been watching this channel since 2014 and I love how this guy has not changed the background audio or the style of filming. What a legend!
I had one of those choppers years ago and it was meant to be used with the base cover on. That keeps all the veg or whatever under the blade. The problem I had was the blade being hard to keep aligned with its upper cover.
i’ve been waiting for this guy to do a face reveal for the past 10 years
I love these gadget reviews, Dave! These are absolutely jaw dropping! I love your channel ❤
Well thanks so much 🙂
thanks for all your hard work over the years, sir. you're very industrious and admirable
That corn thing honestly made me uncomfortable 😂
Love the video, keep making content like this which is so amazing
1:21Never wear gloves on rotating machines!
When all KZheadrs uploading videos for over 10 years are quitting, this guy is still making videos, good work
That corn stripper is for dried corn, it's more common in asia than the west
Thanks, that makes a lot of sense!
@@DaveHaxhope to see it in action again in one of the next episodes 😊
This is a good video so far very good amount of effort put in this video
DaveHax is the GOAT of hacks and life tips. Been a subscriber since around 2014 probably. Live your videos!
the best thing is that this guy has been here for many years and never gave up, I think being a kitchen gadget reviewer was his dream😀
if i were to guess for the corn thing you made two mistakse 1 it needs to be slower 2 the corn is too soft its probably intended for harder corn like popcorn corn (infact thats probably the type of corn you see used in the demonstration video)
I think “pretty cool huh” is the best phrase
Wicked easy coffee cake recipe INGREDIENTS Yields: 8 slices CUPS FOR THE SPONGE * 50 grams walnut pieces * 225 grams caster sugar * 225 grams soft unsalted butter (plus some for greasing) * 200 grams plain flour * 4 teaspoons instant espresso powder * 2½ teaspoons baking powder * ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda * 4 large eggs * 1 - 2 tablespoons milk FOR THE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING * 350 grams icing sugar * 175 grams soft unsalted butter * 2½ teaspoons instant espresso powder (dissolved in 1 tablespoon boiling water) * approx. 10 walnut halves (to decorate) METHOD 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/gas mark 4/350°F. 2. Butter two 20cm / 8inch sandwich tins and line the base of each with baking parchment. 3. Put the walnut pieces and sugar into a food processor and blitz to a fine nutty powder. 4. Add the 225g/2 sticks butter, flour, 4 teaspoons espresso powder, baking powder, bicarb and eggs and process to a smooth batter. 5. Add the milk, pouring it down the funnel with the motor still running, or just pulsing, to loosen the cake mixture: it should be a soft, dropping consistency, so add more milk if you need to. (If you are making this by hand, bash the nuts to a rubbly powder with a rolling pin and mix with the dry ingredients; then cream the butter and sugar together, and beat in some dry ingredients and eggs alternately and, finally, the milk.) 6. Divide the mixture between the 2 lined tins and bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until the sponge has risen and feels springy to the touch. 7. Cool the cakes in their tins on a wire rack for about 10 minutes, before turning them out onto the rack and peeling off the baking parchment. 8. When the sponges are cool, you can make the buttercream. 9. Pulse the icing sugar in the food processor until it is lump free, then add the butter and process to make a smooth icing. 10. Dissolve the instant espresso powder in 1 tablespoon boiling water and add it while still hot to the processor, pulsing to blend into the buttercream. 11. If you are doing this by hand, sieve the icing sugar and beat it into the butter with a wooden spoon. 12. Then beat in the hot coffee liquid. 13. Place 1 sponge upside down on your cake stand or serving plate. 14. Spread with about half the icing; then place on it the second sponge, right side up (i.e. so the 2 flat sides of the sponges meet in the middle) and cover the top with the remaining icing in a ramshackle swirly pattern. 15. This cake is all about old-fashioned, rustic charm, so don’t worry unduly: however the frosting goes on is fine. similarly, don’t fret about some buttercream oozing out around the middle: that’s what makes it look so inviting. 16. Gently press the walnut halves into the top of the icing all around the edge of the circle about 1cm apart.
I'd recommend trying the corn tool with a lower rpm on the drill
My childhood KZheadr, the best part is I can come back here after so long and feel the same like I had 10 years ago because he never changed his style, your honestly one of the best KZheadrs
Please keep coming back dave we love your videos and want to see you more often
The first gadget was making the corn mushy mainly (and it is a possibility) that either the bolts weren’t screwed all the way down or something else.
Nah, it’s made for dry corn, not sweet corn.
The last 6 year of watching you have been very good
Thanks!
For "Grater Slicer" I believe you need to move part from one side to other, it is like this so you don't have to move in such small dimension
About the last grater/slicer gadget: I think it deserved a higher grade because you CAN use the slider with the grater. You just take the blade off and flip it.
im somewhat sure that the first gadget is meant for dry corn for popcorn
The cutter might work better for the onion if you peel the skin a little more
The Corn Drill is used to thresh corn that is still raw (dry), not corn that has been boiled (soft). So when you try it with boiled Sweet Corn, the result is that the corn kernels are destroyed, because it is not intended for it.
I think not being able to use the grater with the slider was an oversight in design, but absolutely love the idea of using the slider with the cutter. Might be a good design idea for a larger size mandolin.
The black holder slider thing has clips on the side. I guess you can unclip it and put it on the grater side.
After 12 years: not dead, not quit, not “taken a break”. What a legend you are.
The Hax really be haxing
6:20 thanks for the life hack
I think the issue with the half onion was that there was a dry, tough layer still on the outside it was catching on- you can also see it with the pre-cut onion, it just gets pushed down the side instead of catching on the whole blade like with the whole one. Try peeling the top layer under the flaky skin off and maybe it'll work better.
That corn gadget is supposed to be used for corn with hard kernels
how is this man not at 10m subs his content is so simple but soo entertaining and high quality.
I was literally watching a DaveHax video when I had notification for this 🤣
How funny, which one were you watching?
Genius cleaning products that actually work 🤣
The same happened to me a few months ago!
Yeah.... I got a grater like the green item in the video. It barely works, and i most often remove the slider and grate garlic normally. The slider tends to just tear the clove to ragged pieces around the middle of a clove
for the corn drill maybe try drilling at a slower speed by lightly pressing the trigger
I've got a different brand of food chopper but it's exactly like the one you tested. It's called the Slap Chop and is super! I've had mine for years and it's really held up! I find it extremely handy for chopping various fruits, vegetables, nuts, and herbs. I highly recommend a chopper similar to what you've got or the Slap Chop. It looks a bit sturdier than the one you've tested. 🙂 And I wouldn't waste my time with that ridiculous sweet corn stripper! It's an accident waiting to happen! LOL
I can remember a cutting chopper like the one shown from the late 60’s early 70’s, that didn’t catch on either!😂
Maybe the drill speed was just too high? A slower speed might push them off rather than blend them, though might take some trial and error to find a good speed.
“Pretty cool huh?” -A famous life inspirational quote from DaveHax
2:22 I think it might be spinning too fast? It seems like it’s meant to push the corn kernels out of the skin stuck to the cob, and since it’s spinning so quickly it’s pulverizing the corn in the process
2:26 For this gadget You need dried corn not fresh... 0:08 you can see it on that videa that it is dried corn ...
We have that slap chopper and its so nice
It’s pretty cool he knows what a sine wave is.
What is a sine wave?
@@Therealgangsterfr-neverseder13 good question. A sine wave is a geometric waveform that oscillates periodically , and is defined by the function y=sinx. In electricity, a sine wave is the representation of AC current.
It looked like the corn in the first picture was dried. So it probably works if the corn is dried and hard
These gadgets are very cool Dave! They’re awesome 😎
Prediction for 2025, and for like 12 years in the making, this guy was still not quit this guy our only hope for old KZhead coming back
Lol 😂 maybe peel the onions before trying to chop it with the device 😅
for big grater use slader on other side
I think you should spin the drill slower.
i feel like that first one has to be a gag gift for you're dad or pop type thing lol love that you are still doing KZhead dave hope you are doing well too
Thanks so much! Yeah I'm doing well thank you, I hope you are too. Have a great weekend...
The corn separator is meant for dry corn cobs
Keep it up Dave!
That corn processor is used for dried corn like field corn, or popcorn
The ginger and garlic grater/slicer looks like its a good kitchen tool
Btw, you actually want the garlic to be mushy most of the time, so you can get the most flavor.
I watch your videos everyday when i feel bored. Keep the hacks going!
Thanks so much! Lots more coming soon...
@@DaveHax Wow! Cant wait to see them all!
I have an idea that you should do for the corn thing if you push on the drill button less it goes slower so maybe you just have to go slower maybe going full speed with the drill messes it up
You can always turn the torque on the drill down to one instead of three that would be a good start
i think the first one is for the cattle corn since its harder kernels
Try using the corn gadget on a slow speed. I noticed it was grinding them.
this first gadget looks like a torture device
The chopper you used they had them out in the 80s as my mum had 1 of them.
For cow corn/dried corn.
I have that onion chopper btw. Takes me 20-30 minutes to chop the onions by hand.
Hi Dave. I have the same graters that come in green, pink and blue
Ah cool, what do you make of them?
"Pretty cool huh" will always be a memory to me!
You went the wrong way with the bolts on the first gadget. Making the opening wider sent the bolts through the middle of the kernels, which would turn them into mush.
The corn one could work if you pulled the trigger slower. Its ripping it off the cob because youre going too fast I think. Like stripping a screw
I bought my mother an “Auto Chop” almost 60 years ago. Exactly the same as the one you demonstrated.
his voice is so calming..
I''m pretty sure the corn drill attachment is meant for getting kernels from dried corn cobs used for making popcorn.
This looks like, "I ripped my incisors out by placing corn on the cob on a power drill," part II.
2:10 that looks soft and fluffy for some reason...
I think you were supposed to turn the blade part around to use the slider action to grade
2:27 I have one of those, but it has different colors and shape.
love your videos man
Wow my favorite nostalgic
Davehax, you can see in the corn gadget’s advertising picture that they’re using a different corn variety. It’s not for sweetcorn/ corn on the cob it’s for the kind used for popcorn. Could you source some and refilm for us?
I think with that big grater/cutter u can take off the black slider and put it on the other side for grating lol
Congrats! You’ve made creamed corn. Yum!
I believe the corn hootis is used on maíz cobs. Maíz meaning dried out corn cobs. Its pretty popular in mexico. I can see that tool taking over the country México 😅
