 really good cookbook November 2, 2008
I LOVE this cookbook. I purchased America's Test Kitchen Baking Book and liked it so much that I ordered this one, and it's just as good as the baking book, if not better.
The book is binder-style, so the pages lay flat while cooking, which is very convenient. The book comes with tabbed inserts for each chapter that make it easy to navigate through the book.
This cookbook is full of product reviews, tip and tricks, shortcuts and suggestions that make it an excellent choice for anyone from the beginner to advanced cook. It's full of easy recipes that the whole family should enjoy, such as apple pie and meatloaf.
This book will refresh your cooking repertoire and should keep your family enjoying mealtime for months to come. Highly recommended.
ALMOST PERFECT October 28, 2008
When I received the cookbook, I knew from reader previous reviews that the chapter dividers would need to be inserted. That would have been no problem except one insert was duplicated, so one was missing. The customer service at Amazon was very helpful and quickly got another issue out so it was received in time to give for a gift. This is my new "GO TO" gift for newlyweds AND experienced cooks. It has a wealth of useful info and great recipes. I'm glad the new revised edition has been improved; this is an excellent product. Rings and paper quality are just fine for me.
Great gift for bachelors October 24, 2008

Gave this as a gift to a young man just moving into his own place. So far the reviews are great. He used it to prepare dinner for friends, said it was a success. I just ordered another for a Christmas gift!
Best Cookbook EVER! October 14, 2008

I own probably over 100 cookbooks but this is the one that I reach for time after time. It has great classic, easy to follow recipes. I have not been let down with one recipe yet! I've recently made the classic white cake with white icing and have received RAVE reviews on it!
One of the best features that I like about it is I feel like I learn more about cooking or baking when I open this book. It's a great read, even when you aren't planning on making anything right then. You can get a lot of good ideas and the product reviews are great to read also!
I can't wait to get the new Baking cookbook they came out with recently.
 Good cookbook - Shoddy quality control October 7, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you're a fan of the show, you'll love having so many of their recipes at your fingertips. They are detailed and clearly written with lots of photos and best of all, the results are usually delicious.
The reason I dropped a star from the rating was because my cookbook was missing one of the dividers; the index card-like pages that separate the various sections. That might not sound like a big deal, but each divider has a table of contents for the recipes in that section.
A phone call to the publisher requesting the missing divider got nowhere fast when the lady learned I didn't buy the book directly through them. An exchange through Amazon required that I pay return shipping (so much for saving any money ordering online). I then emailed the publisher and asked the same question I did on the phone and luckily the person who responded was much more polite and mailed me the missing divider, although it was a bit beaten up by the time it arrived.
