- (laughing) Yes! (exciting music) (mimicking air pumping) Hello everybody, welcome to
Kitchen Gadget Testing 51. Wow, massive shout-out to all of you before we get started for anyone that did the Kitchen Gadget
Testing Barrathon video, all 50 of the previous ones
bunched together on one video. Last time I looked at
it, it was 70,000 views, which is unbelievable. I really did not expect
that, so if you did that and did the whole 16 hours, awesome. Remember, some of these
gadgets are novelty, but some of them can help
people with disabilities and also just help them
get back into the kitchen cooking and stuff, so please consider that before commenting down below. A real good mix today. This first one I did
not actually get online, although if I can find it online, I'll leave a link down below. Mrs. Barry and I went to
Bath a few weeks back, which is lovely, if
you're ever in the area, a really nice place. I saw this sort of kitchen
gadget style shop and I'm like, we're going in there. So we did spend a lot of time in there, and this thing by a
company called MasterClass is the Triple Sand Egg Timer. Now, we do have the ultimate
thing for that already that we've shown on here before. Here it is, the Elvis egg timer that sings at soft, medium and hard boiled eggs, so that one is really cool. I don't think this will ever be topped, whereas this seems a bit more posh. We're gonna need this to make sure the moment we want our eggs
out, it stops them cooking. Ice water, nice. Soft, med, hard for proper hard boiled egg on there. Okay, this is great. It looks really cool. Look at that, three
minutes for a soft egg, four minutes for a medium
and five minutes for hard. Look, I like the different colour sands. It's nice, isn't it? You kind of got the
egg white, the egg yolk and then like oh, let's
just do century egg one. It's been a long time since
I've used a sand timer. Very old school. The only downside to this, despite the flashy, posh
packaging and the way it looks and the lovely fonts and all that stuff, and it looks like a good
quality thing, right? It's not actually telling someone that doesn't really
know how to boil an egg whether to put it straight from cold and warm it up as it cooks or
to put it in simmering water. Luckily, this guy can help. He's the egg-spert. Generally what I'll do is get the water up to a steady simmer, which is what I'm gonna do now, then stick my eggs in,
get the timer going then. I think that's fair enough, and most likely what that's designed for. Okay, so while that water
is coming to a boil, remember that gadget? We might have something
simmering in a minute, hint. There's a real big push about awareness of plastics and recycling at the moment, in particular with the world of straws. In fact, anyone that's gone
into McDonald's fairly recently and had a milkshake will know the pain of trying to suck a
milkshake through a straw after about three or four minutes. It just kind of turns to papyrus. But fear not. About two weeks ago in a pub,
I saw a lady with one of these and I was like, what? Is she vaping inside? No, this is something I
ordered about two days ago, arrived really quick indeed. It's called Simply Straws, there we go. I'm sure there's other brands available. I was like, is she vaping? Because it had a case like this. This is a straw that you carry around. It's got a little thing you
can put on your keyring. Yeah, I'm gonna drink. That's your carry case, and
this, believe it or not, is not some sort of James Bond weapon. It should be, come on, yes. Oh, something fell out. Ah, oh my gosh, it's your very own little, this retracts as well, look at this. Now then, a little brush. This is how you clean
your straw, brilliant. I didn't think of that. So you can go right in and out like that. Right, let's role play. I'm a guy at a pub that's
just ordered a soft drink. Thank you very much. Oh no, don't worry about
the straw, I've got my own. (bell dinging) Everyone's looking at you,
and you're like, yeah. Maybe in the future this
will become the norm. Ooh, that's good. You know, this is very
obvious, but a metal straw does make your drink
taste more metallic-y. It's weird. It feels like I'm literally
drinking through a saucepan, but it works. You can do that. It's not bad, is it? Good for the environment, I guess. Cool. Here we go. Yes, tictoc, tictoc. Here they go. Just like a Guinness World Record attempt. By the way, for my giant foods, I have contacted them several times, and I don't know if I
spoke to the wrong person, but they wanted to charge me thousands to verify that I'd made
something giant already that was a world record, mental. Yes, independent adjudicator Elvis is overseeing the egg timers here, and we're looking at the
white one first of all, got our ice bowl ready,
and we will plunge ASAP. Boom, gone, right. Out you go, into there. Ah, I bet that feels good. Here we go, medium. I picked up the wrong one, then. Boom, yes. Elvis is sort of looking
on in mild jealousy, really praying that they haven't worked. We're pulling out all the gadgets today. Look, do you remember this thing? This is an egg topper. Looks innocent, ah, ouch. That's all I'm gonna say. I can't remember if this
gadget was any good. Normally I tend to either give
away or keep the good ones. Oh, oh dear. Oh dear, there we go, rip that top off. (gasping) I don't even think that's
cooked, look at that. No, that's raw still. In fact, the yolk's, I mean, that's soft, but that is uncooked egg white. In other words, that didn't work. That's springing out as well. That better not be egg white, come on now. Oh, there we go. This one, so the medium
is a soft boiled egg. That is actually okay. So goodness knows what
this one's gonna look like. Oh my gosh, that looks even worse. It's still runny. Well, in conclusion, I stuck those eggs into just boiled water,
exactly how I would with Elvis, and they've done that, whereas
this has never let me down. Elvis, you're not leaving
the building today. Yeah, I'm thinking that
we might do that again but put the eggs in cold water, bring it to a boil, then set the timer. That's my only thinking around it. But anyhow, have you
ever heard of the phrase, you could put someone's eye out with that? Well, in the shop in Bath,
they also had one of these. This isn't a gadget video Bath special. I'd love to do that in the Roman
Baths whilst being sponged. This is a spud gun. This is a legitimate gun that
doubles up as a water pistol. This is a bit of a novelty one. Potatoes have eyes. Look, I went to the supermarket and picked out the most
hideous looking potato I could that I thought no one would
take home and care for, but me, yes, I love you. The eyes aren't eyes
really, they're the actual growing points in the potato, aren't they? This was actually quite expensive, though. It's a gun. (gun clicks) (gun clicks) I missed the camera. There goes my James Bond audition. It's all about a potato gun,
so I'm gonna go for the eye. This almost looks perfect,
like it was made for it, and we scoop in like that. (gasping) Look, it's
got a pellet of potato. (laughing) Yes! That's a spud gun. Holy potatoes, Batman! Oh, you mucky pup, look at that. All right, this next one that I've just washed
in fact, is by Chef'n. We've seen quite a lot
of Chef'n over time. I've still got about a billion
of their things upstairs. Very creative stuff, generally. Quick Stick Snack Slicer, slice snacks faster and
safer than with a knife. Basically, it's this sort of vessel thing that I don't know if you can see there. It's kind of got a cross at the
top, which it does come out. That's sort of plastic-y, but in there, oh dear, that's dangerous in there. You do not want to be
putting your hands in there. This sort of links in
with it and I believe, yes, that's right. Of course I know how to use this thing. It gets pushed down. You push the vegetables through there and it will quarter it, so apparently it's also
good for things like Brussels sprouts, tomatoes,
grapes, strawberries, whatever. But we're gonna go for
some carrots and celery. The only problem I'm thinking is, it ain't gonna take the
ends off the carrot, and it's also not gonna peel it. For best results, halve longer foods. Let's not, let's stick it on like this. Oh my gosh, look. Wow, that's amazing, and I've
got a carrot on the floor. It tucked in there really nicely. Now I can see why they're
saying to cut it down, because if you look, those
blades must be really sharp. You gotta line it up from
afar if you do it this way, but that is absolute genius. And then if your sticks
are a little bit too big you can then just halve it like that. That is one of the best gadgets I've done in quite a while actually,
and I've had it upstairs in my cupboard for a long time, stonking. This is why I love these videos. Of course there's the fun and
the crazy, wacky novelty ones and stuff like that,
but these legitimately can help a lot of people,
and it's convenient. It's clever. My worst thing is when I do ones like this and I have really high hopes
for them and they don't work, and there's been a lot of
those, and I cannot fault that. That's really good and
it's safe, it feels good. Remember, I'm not being
paid to say this at all, but all I can say is
the kids and Mrs. Barry are gonna be wanting me to get
a lot of hummus in the house. Yeah, brilliant. This gadget by Dreamfarm is called Vebo. It washes, boils, steams and strains, and I thought it said
stains, in one basket, so it's kind of like a
steaming bucket thing. And here we go. It looks like a swim cap, or
one of those ones they have in the hairdresser when
you have highlights. I had highlights, didn't I? Remember those times, guys? (exhaling) I would legitimately sit in
the hairdresser's like that. All these other guys having
the short back and sides, yo mate, how's it going,
you going into town tonight? Yeah, brilliant, yeah. And I'll be there like in the corner with this thing on my head with this guy pulling my hair through. It was cool. Not so much looking back. We will all make that
mistake in our lives, folks. We've all done it, and if
you haven't done it yet, you're doing it right now,
so look in the mirror. Take a look at yourself and go, wow. If you want. So, here we go, this is it. It looks like sort of a confused jellyfish with eyes, hello. But this is gonna be a bucket. It's got some feet on it so if you get the water
lower than that height, apparently yes, yes, yes, it will steam. Imagine you've got your
bucket of your veg. Why do I suddenly feel
like Red Riding Hood? This is what it's designed for. You pick it up like
this, you run your tap, and look, it's washing
the vegetables for you. That's really cool. There's a couple of different
ways that you can cook this. We can boil it, which is
obviously submerging it fully in water, or you can steam it, which actually can, I believe,
and it's my opinion as well, hold and retain the nutritional
value of the vegetables, although I saw on a forum quite recently two people literally arguing over that. I was thinking, haven't these guys got anything better to do with their time? And then I realised I
was literally reading it. In the words of Jaws, we're
gonna need a bigger saucepan, so we'll start afresh, boom. Now you see, I've filled that just enough so that it'll boil, but not so that it's
covering the vegetables. Sit the lid down like that,
and this will steam it through. (laughing) The only
problem I've just spotted is look, the bucket has just popped up, so I'm having to hold this down to prevent more steam escaping. We're sweating out this veg. But anyhow, that's enough
of the steaming for now. Look, you can see that coming out. What I'm doing now instead, obviously you wouldn't normally do this. You'd either steam it or boil it, but I'm filling the pan up with water. The vegetables are pretty
much cooked already. Yeah look, it's gonna pop up, watch. It's such a strong bucket. It's like nope, go away, lid. Whoo, nice. Look, there's another gadget. I think I said at the time
when I first got that, keep an eye out if we ever use it. We absolutely love it. I think it's called
the Caddy or something. Whoo, I can't see much
water coming out of that. It's supposed to drain it. Maybe it's done most of it for us already. Excited jellyfish, hello. You can then sort of just take it out and tip it straight into your bowl. Yep, it's done, hot. My mom always tells me when I was a baby, when it came to eating baby food, there was only one food that
I liked, chocolate pudding. I had to buy a six pack because they didn't sell it individually. They had cottage cheese, chile con carne, loads of other stuff, but
no, I love chocolate pudding. So for this gadget which I found upstairs, and it's been in this
wrapper for blooming ages. I've basically got this box of gadgets, and as more and more arrive, some of them sort of shimmy to the bottom, a bit like the sticks
thing for the vegetables. This label on it, it's
called a Gaymax Ball Bebe. This is designed for a baby. I thought it was a colander at first or some sort of weird egg
spinny gadget, but no. This is designed, so you take the lid off and in there is your
bowl for you baby food, and it's designed so that
say you've got a toddler and they're like eh, like that, you see how it's staying
upright like that? And I think it's called
a UFO ball or something. You can literally go like that. It's got that whole sort of NASA-inspired, you know when they put the
astronauts in training thing? This is basically a mini one of those. So we're just gonna try it, 'cause I think that's pretty cool. I mean, Phoebe and Chloe, if
I offered this to them now they'd probably be a bit offended 'cause they're older than that, but any people with young kids out there, I remember what it was like. Brilliant, perfect for my 14 month old, and it's got a kid just going oh. Waste of money, really awful product. My toddler had figured out how to tip the food out of
the bowl almost immediately, complete waste of money. The toddler's sitting
there going, right, okay, if I go like that, but look, oh no, well there's only one way
to find out, isn't there? And I know what you're thinking. Barry, is this, oh, nice. (lid clicking) Is this an excuse, Barry, to for you to have chocolate pudding? (laughing) And get out
for nostalgia reasons Phoebe and Chloe's little baby spoon? Damn right, it is. Oh, it's already spilled out. I should have poured that in properly. Okay, so it's tipping, it's tipping. There we go, get in the middle, right. So I'm a baby. In comes the aeroplane and all that. Oh my gosh, I'd be really disappointed if I had to have that right now. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's better than blended up carrots, but I would have expected more. So here we go, you're supposed to be like, oh, I'm a kid, I don't know to eat, and you go woo, like that. Look at that. Hello, daddy, and the food's there, not that they're gonna
eat it at that angle. You could. How far can we go with this? Oh my God, look at that,
that's actually really clever. Let's try and do it in slow mo like that. Hey, spin it round, you
can tilt it like this. What if you drop it? That's pretty good, you gotta admit. It's got a nice little stand
to try to keep it up like that. It tastes more like rice
pudding, more milky, but look. If you know anyone that's got a toddler and you want them some
sort of crazy little gift, it's not the most expensive thing, but that's really fun. I might just make a massive one of these and have it at my dinnertime
and impress all my friends. (soft music) Sorry, that was me just
signing this last gadget. If you don't know, every month on Patreon I give away some signed gadgets, and this is the one I'm picking this month 'cause it's substantial. Christmas we gave away
four different ones, it's pretty cool. So this one is a bit of a nostalgic one. It's a little bit retro and novelty. It's a chocolate and caramel
and apple party in a box. Amazing. It's like a lazy Susan, you know? Like a whole sort of spinny thing where you can have little
dunking stations for your apple. We can either do a
chocolate sauce in there or a caramel one. We're gonna do caramel. I don't know if it keeps it warm or if it gets plugged in, I don't know. Here's a random thing, when I
sent one of the gadgets away someone was like, can you just do me a
favour and not wash it? I was like, okay. Ooh, ooh, ooh. Ooh, I see cable. I think it's gonna self-heat like a chocolate fountain
thing, brilliant. Then you've got, they
individually wrapped all of these. These are little segments. This is like I'm playing
Trivial Pursuit right now. Oh no! (ominous music) (sighing) As you know,
me and American things have a history. It doesn't matter. The basic context is very simple. There's caramel in there, but I know how to make that anyway. This sits on there, which is gonna rotate, and then this thing just sits in here so you can move it round. Now, a minute ago I took these
out as I was unpackaging it and it became a bit of a puzzle, so they do sort of fit in their own, oh my gosh, I've done it again. You've got these compartments
for toppings for your apple, and this is like a rotation spot. Apple decorating trays, there we go. So that sits in there
so you can rotate it. This gets warmed up by the
power cord, fingers crossed, and then this sits in there with your sauce that
you've made of choice, so we are gonna make caramel sauce now. (upbeat music) Should take about five
minutes to just whisk it or wooden spoon it, and then add in a touch of vanilla extract,
and that's our sauce done. To stay safe, I'm using my
step down converter thing. I've sort of set it all up. Really to be honest, we've got the apples that fit really snugly in these things, and of course it will
spin round if we want. The pot's in the middle
with the heat a bit, so this is the separate bit here. We'll probably just pour it straight in. Then we've got some coconut,
chocolate sprinkles, hundreds of thousands, all that stuff, edible glitter, and we're ready to go. Well, the only other thing I've got to do is these are the skewers it comes with. There's no sharp ends on it,
but straight up in there, and look, you can sort of
spin it around in there. This is fun. So before sending this off
to the winning Patreon, I'm totally gonna keep this and use it for Chloe's birthday party. I'm not sure if you can hear, but I've just turned it on at the wall, so there is now power through
my step down converter going into this central dish. I can feel heat, yes. The purpose of that heater anyway, there's no sort of
temperature control on there. It's simply just to keep it warm. I guess we dip the apple. Oh my gosh, can you see it coming up now? We dip that in there. This is very, very hot. And then I guess we stick it in here and then we can just
sort of spin it round, put different toppings on it like that. I wasn't sure if you're
supposed to roll it directly in the trays, but I think that'll make it dangerous. I'm in my element here, this is great. Amazing, look at that. Right, so it's gonna have to cool down. If you want it to harden up,
stick it on something like that and then whack it in the
fridge for about an hour. I'm gonna do that, but I'm gonna stick it in the fast fridge for 10 minutes. Oh no, in true Barry style,
I actually got it wrong. What you need to do is put
the toppings that you want into your tray like this. So say you want a coconut
and a little beady one and maybe stick some of
the pink stuff in there. In fact, let's put a bit of
everything in there, why not? You then dunk your apple in like that and then in, and then
twist around like that. Okay, that's kind of pulling
my topping off, look at that. Oh wow, that looks like
something from the 80s. That will do. I actually preferred my first method. Double dunk it and sprinkle. (apple crunching) Ah. Another gadget video in the bag. If you fancy having a Barrathon now, go back to number one on the playlist and watch them all the
way through if you wish, or even the epic 16 hour plus video that I can't believe how
many of you watched that. Thank you so much for that, and if you've seen any cool gadgets, do let me know down below or
on social media of choice. I'm everywhere @MrBarryLewis. Thanks for watching,
and I'll see you soon. Check your level player, no matter what your style
the kitchen's for me, so a moustache, goatee maybe or three. You still here? All right. This is the bonus egg
scene that I promised. So here's the timer again. I've got six eggs on the go. There's already three in there. In that pan there are three eggs, soft, medium, hard we're gonna do. I've written the word cold on it 'cause they've been in there
since the water was cold. The moment it hits a boil, we're then gonna stick these three in, set the timer going to
see how they compare. All six of the eggs have
had a pin go in there to stop it cracking, so let's
see what they turn out like. Quite the lineup of
egg-straordinary, egg pun, usual suspect. Oh my gosh, it's done it again. I'm only gonna show you
the soft ones for example. Look, soft, that's not soft. That's egg white. What, is this soft cold? Are you a soft boiled egg? You don't look it, you
don't look it at all. No, look. Wow, well we now know that
if the soft cold is like that then the medium and the hard are basically gonna be even worse. I'm still seeing a teeny
bit of egg white in there. Look at that, oh my gosh. A hard boiled egg, even
that one's a bit white. Look at that, there's some yolk, but that's still, oh my gosh. In conclusion, stick to Elvis. This has never let me down, and it's fun.
