Mine is the salad spinner that is coming mid-season. I almost bought one from taste of home but decided to wait and see if we brought one out in the new products so I am stoked about that one. What about everyone else?

I have the ever-popular OXO one, so I'm not too excited about ours.... I love the trifle bowl, kitchen shears and the round platters! I earned the kitchen shears...can't wait to get those! OH, and I like the idea of some of the bbq planks and seasoning.
 
Black tool turn about! I asked for that =) I'm also interested in the mix and chop. I really do like dots - very cute.

Oh, yeah....I'd have to say the TTA and the shears are probably my MOST favs....hmmm..I have to many favs! lol
 
I am excited about the new scoops--Sur la Table sells some foreign made ones that are AWESOME and our's look exactly the same--they will be big sellers!
 
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the salad spinner. I am glad PC took so long to come out with one because it is the BOMB!! It spins at 13.5 mph and has a brake button on it. It has a small basket for berries (or grapes and stuff) and a larger basket for lettuce and cabbage. Then for your casual family dinners the bowl part of it becomes your salad bowl so as not to mess up any more dishes!! I LOVE the salad spinner. Yes, those of you who went to conference, I was the lunatic jumping up and screaming over the new products! That was me!
 
the turnabout rules..however since I am new. I am going to have to buy it since I didn't earn it. Can't really have the old one sitting at shows since it won't be available anymore. Not good business practice. Got to have the new stuff....LOL.
 
I am like "huh?" on a couple of new products. Like the Salad Scissors...ummm why? And the Mix n Chop and the ugly Avacado green Santuko and Tomato knives. But whatever!
 
It's really hard to narrow it down! I love the salad spinner too! I have been waiting for one and have requested it! That is the one product that I shouted out with Glee when I read it!!! So that is my absolute favorite and I WILL earn it! Just broke mine about 2 months ago and was going to go buy one next month, for my birthday (my Mom sends me money for my birthdays, so I can choose) Now I'm going to save that money and use it in buying my samples, the ones I didn't earn! My other favorites are the new TTA, new kitchen shears and the round SA and I can't wait to see the SA lg round platter because I was so bummed when they took away the other round platter! I told you it was really hard. I am also so stoked about all the new pantry! Wahoo for bring back of Asian Seasoning!! All of them I am excited to try! Have to agree with some though these new artichoke knives, yikes! I don't know, but I won't judge until I see and use them!
 
I have a question about the salad spinner, how does it spind is it a pump spinner or a turn spinner(if that makes sense) I have a friend who is asking
 
pump spinner. Go download the new kitchen consultant news, link is on this site! And you can see it! Also it is suppossed to have breaks and be way better than any of it's competitors, at least that is what I've been told!:D My old one you pull a string, let me tell how stupid that was!!! Can't tell you how many times I pulled the darn lid right off!!!!

Why don't you just ask your mom to order one from you for your birthday? That way you will make commision on the sale too!!!:p

I agree on the Salad scissors. I did take the Product Showcase workshop and got to try them out, and they were neat. I probably wouldn't buy them though.

I like the mix 'n' chop. The knives are an odd color, but I like it. (I enjoy those pukey colors like the artichoke and mustard yellow thought, but I know they are not for everyone...)

I have to say I am so surprised the tiles paper napkins are still available though!

I am crazy about the dots! I wasn't wild over the tiles, but I think the tiles and dots together look incredible, very edgy and fresh.
 
I am sure they have a ton of the paper napkins left, and they will probably incorporate it into the outdoor entertaining page. If they are going to sell paper napkins they should have ONLY been included with the picnic stuff!!
 
LOVE LOVE LOVE the salad spinner I use my tupperware one daily, We've worn out or broken the OXO one. hope this bowl is sturdier so it doesn't crack.
can't wait to get the stockpot & YAHOO my oven mitts are back!!

While I'm not sure about the color, I think the tomato knife will be a big seller.
 
I am SO excited about all the new products, but the HWC products are FINALLY up to par this year...Bring on March, I want to earn that apron!!
 
I'm very interested to see the artichoke knives. I like that color! I would say I'm the most stoked about the trifle bowl because I love making things that not only taste good but look pretty also!

Good thing you held out and waited for PC to some out with a Salad Spinner. I put my PC business on hold to give Taste of Home a try, and their salad spinner is one product I ordered to increase my product collection. One word, JUNK. I ended up ebaying it. The only product from TOHE that I was truly happy with is the Pizza Cutter, but for $25+ it better be a good one :) I can't wait to give ours a try and I love the berry feature! Just my 2 cents worth! Oh yeah, and I came back to PC obviously LOL! :D
 
New SA Dots ( I LOVE All SA pieces really), Trifle bowl, TTA and new colors!

I love the HWC products too! I must have them all and that apron as well!

Oh I forgot about HWC, I can't wait to earn them all!
 
Salad Spinner! I asked HO one time for one and look I feel like they listened!
I am sure I am not the only one though!
Salad Scissors? No thanks! I prefer my Santuko for all my chopping needs.

I also like the new SA coffee mugs. I am obsessed with coffee though. I have this need to keep collecting coffee makers also, My hubby has cut me off. Pod kind (Senseo), pot brewed in 3 minutes kind (Bunn), timer kind and grind your own beans before you brew kind(Cusinart), single cup with reusable filter kind.... etc Now I have my eye on the Starbucks Barista. Especially after I get my new SA cups! He doesn't know that though.

I guess I'll have to find a new obsession. Hmmmm...... More Pampered Chef!!!!

That'll work!

Did PC ever sell a salad spinner before?
 
I think I read on another thread about one we used to carry that had a pull string!??
 
hmm that's interesting, so this one is much nicer then!
 
Personally my favorite, and you all will think I am crazy are those wooden tongs for mid season.....they were awesome! The salad stuff is actually pretty exciting to me. I really like the salad spinner, but could someone tell me why I need to spin my salad.....LOL
 
I've been selling for almost 13 years and we've never had one that I can remember (not even when I was a customer)
 
you spin it to "dry " it
you will be amazed at how dirty the water will be after you spin it. (You would probabaly rinse it once shake it in a colander and serve it to your family) . BUT, after you see the icky water I promise you'll rinse it again.
I never buy pre-bagged salads but even they should be rinsed you'll see nasty water with them too.
