Does a great job
Bought because we make a sauce for gingerbread that takes 20 mins to cook. This auto stirrer does 5he work so you don't have too. Great time saver and saves your wrists from fatigue. A little pricey but we'll worth it

Great for canning
I love these auto stirrers. We own a few of them for our annual canning. I recommend you also get the large pot attachments because the included stick is ideally for 5, 8 or maybe 10 qrt pots.Even though they do not recommend it, we actually use them in a tethered power mode where we keep them plugged in because we have the pots simmering for days for some batches. In my opinion this is only feasible if you are careful about ensuring the power cord is lifted/suspended and kept as high/away from heat sources as possible. Aside from concerns about melting/overheating the cord, the stirrer handles it fine.

Saves my wife's crippled arm BIGTIME.
My wife makes a long time recipe which required non stop stirring. and due to recent medical issues she cannot stir like she used to. I bought her this and it's been a literal God send. Id give it 5 stars but the plastic stirrers do burn over time. Thank you stir mate this is a wonderful thing for my household.

Perfect for making condensed/evaporated milk for ice cream!
The media could not be loaded. I have been experimenting with techniques to make great home made ice cream thank to the endless quarantine. I tried heavy cream, gelatin, gums, etc., but what works the best for me is home made evaporated milk. I start with a gallon of whole milk, and after spending hours stirring the milk so it doesn't burn or spill, I end up with relatively small quantity of thick evaporated milk that makes amazing ice cream in my ice cream maker (stand alone one with a built in compressor). The ice cream is crystal free / creamy, and doesn't have the high fat/buttery taste of ice cream made with heavy cream. All you need is this thick milk chilled and blended in a blender to add volume, sugar (dissolve towards the end of evaporating milk), and any flavors (fruit, peppermint extract, vanilla, etc.). Just milk and sugar is also delicious.There is just one problem with this approach. It takes FOREVER to make evaporated milk. I remember spending up to 3 hours stirring the milk! I love my ice cream, but spending 3 hours in front of the stove was getting old pretty fast. One evening, I decided to search for an "automatic stirrer" product on Amazon. I wasn't expecting anything, but lo and behold, I ended up coming across StirMATE. I couldn't believe my eyes! This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. It was an instant buy, and thanks to Amazon's quick delivery, it was in my hands in a little over 24 hours.I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality and heft of the device. I was expecting it to be a flimsy little thing, but it is really well built and feels solid. I took it for a test drive the same day it arrived, and I am happy to report that it did exactly what I wanted it to do. I left the milk in a large stainless steel pot on medium/low heat and let StirMATE do it's magic. A few hours later, I had perfect eveporated/condensed milk that I used the next day to make some delicious low sugar Matcha Green Tea ice cream. StirMATE saved me hours of standing over the pot stirring it constantly, and scraping a thick layer of burnt milk from the bottom no matter how much I stirred.I've only used it once, so I can't say how long it will last, but it looks like the people behind it are passionate about what they do, so I assume they invested a lot of time designing it well. Here is a fun fact I discovered shortly after receiving the product: The inventor of StirMATE (Dimitri Cados) is the founder of Casbah foods. A few years ago, I got into home made Falafel and remember buying a bunch of boxes of Casbah Falafel mix (it was delicious!). Awesome job with this invention, Dimitri!

A Stirrer That Actually Works!
I've owned another "as seen on TV" stirrer that's less than ten bucks. Don't bother. But the search continued--home cooks don't have a sous chef to do the stirring, and we have a lot of things to cook at once. Freeing us from one task so that we can do everything else better is a significant gain.This stirrer has real muscle--the motor is geared down so that it stirs with real power. Yesterday I made risotto, and it stirred the whole thing for me. It just sat there on the pan for about a half hour, stirring away instead of my having to stir.It's adjustable, will work with a variety of pot diameters and heights. It charges quickly, in an hour or two. I've had it stir constantly for an hour without slowing down, and I'm sure it will run a lot longer on a charge. But there's no reason why you can't charge while it's stirring, so if you put it away and it runs down you can still use it as long as you have an outlet within reach of your stovetop--or an extension cord.It also is cleverly designed so that it effectively rubs the bottom the pan it's stirring and covers the whole thing. It does a quite thorough job of stirring. Maybe even better than I do!It's quality construction. Everything is rugged, so it will last a long time. Good news is that the stirrer can go into the dishwasher--you want that, because, of course, it gets all involved with whatever you're stirring, and needs to be well cleaned. You clean the rest of it yourself, but it doesn't get messy and is easy enough too wipe off.The size is manageable. It won't take up a huge amount of space. The only improvement that I'd want is a better box to store the three pieces and charger in, instead of the cardboard box it comes in. I reinforced that box with packaging tape, and use it to store the StirMATE, but it's actually about twice as big as it needs to be and is not super durable.Finally, the price. For something as sturdily built and durable, I'd expect to pay more! It's great to see a quality cooking accessory with a price that's only two digits.If you're looking for a gift for that foodie in your life, this could be the ideal choice. It's new and isn't sold in the cooking equipment stores, so your giftee won't know about it. And when you first see it, its purpose isn't clear. But when your giftee uses it, then you'll be remembered for giving the perfect gift. And its durability will have you remembered for that gift every time it takes over a tough stirring task.
