Does anyone have experience between this one and Bodum? Which one is larger and easier to use? Thank you

I don't know about the Bodum. I have the Scanpan Knife Block and love it. So easy to use, I don't worry about the sizes, etc. Right now I have 8 large knifes in it and could still fit in some paring knives if need be. Very happy with this product.

I have the Bodum and wish it were slanted. If I had a purchase do-over, I'd get the Scanpan.

The best way to tell is to measure the height and diameter of your beaker and see how it compares to the Bodum beaker. If you enlarge the picture of the Bodum packaging on Amazon you can see the measurements.

I've used both. WM1000 is larger but easier to handle. They are different animals.

I've used both and found them both to be great products. The only reason I quit using the Walkydog and bought this was because the Walkydog requires the bike seat to be raised enough to allow it to be installed under the seat. I'm short, even the inch and half two inches of extra seat height caused me to feel uncomfortable on my bike. I basically had to "fall" over a good deal before my feet hit the ground (even with the seat the entire way down, I have to lean a bit to hit tippy toes)...but it kept the dog away from the bike and absorbed any pulling. I gifted it to a taller friend who also has a "crazy" dog with big exercise needs. The Bike Tow Leash is now installed on my bike and me and my dog love it. She is a German Shep mix and has requires an insane amount of exercise. This allows us to get out and explore the world. If I just say "bike" she is at my side ready to go. The one advantage the BTL does have over the walkydog is that the dog can get out of the way of obstacles on the side of the bike a bit better. Technically the lower center of gravity should be better for pulling not affecting the rider, but I never had an issue with being pulled "too" hard on Walky Dog either... So if riding a lot on narrow trails, I'd lean towards the Bike Tow Leash...Other than that, I think either would work for big dogs. It just depends on the type of bike/brakes you have and if you have the ability to raise your seat enough for the other.

Larger is much better. Perforation on all sides is much better, so performance is much better and faster. I love mine!!

Not that I've experienced. I had my last bodum for 5 years. I dropped it and it broke. You can bu replacement parts but I wanted a bigger one.

We love this but I would recommend the larger sized one from the same mfr. for you. Our landscaper has the larger one and I now wish we had bought that one.

Using the larger mat is definitely easier if your project is atleast 12 x 12. I am not familiar with the differences in quality of vinyl that I have purchased in the past. I usually purchase what seems to be the best deal. And transfer tape will make your job soooo much easier than trying to peal it off the vinyl and apply yourself. Thanks

My husband actually uses both. I just use the Cremo. Your instructions are correct.

I just asked directly to 4YourHome, they answered that it is a generic brand, "meant to fit" (as written in the description). It does not mean it's bad, but it's just NOT a Bodum.

no more than I use my Bodum to make dough, I can live with the extra noise it makes, the Bodum make a loud high pitch sound as you 1st turn it on , but as it starts mixing it not much different than the KA mixer, my Aunt has one and I helped her use hers on Holidays, I'm the GUY cook in my whole family. for the price I can put up with a little extra noise, not being able to run it over 5 min's is a pain, but you need to stop it anyway to scrape the doe down and off the bottom anyway<---- that the part about my Bodum I'm not happy about. but for the price and power it has it's better than anything that not a KA. I would buy another one. no more than I use my Bodum to make dough, I can live with the extra noise it makes, the Bodum make a loud high pitch sound as you 1st turn it on , but as it starts mixing it not much different than the KA mixer, my Aunt has one and I helped her use hers on Holidays, I'm the GUY cook in my whole family. for the price I can put up with a little extra noise, not being able to run it over 5 min's is a pain, but you need to stop it anyway to scrape the doe down and off the bottom anyway<---- that the part about my Bodum I'm not happy about. but for the price and power it has it's better than... » Read More no more than I use my Bodum to make dough, I can live with the extra noise it makes, the Bodum make a loud high pitch sound as you 1st turn it on , but as it starts mixing it not much different than the KA mixer, my Aunt has one and I helped her use hers on Holidays, I'm the GUY cook in my whole family. for the price I can put up with a little extra noise, not being able to run it over 5 min's is a pain, but you need to stop it anyway to scrape the doe down and off the bottom anyway<---- that the part about my Bodum I'm not happy about. but for the price and power it has it's better than anything that not a KA.

I would go with this. I used both and I liked these better. They have the tops you can hang them also if you want to or have them on the ground. I had a ton of flies coming I into from my neighbor's dogs and this took care if them within 3-4 days. I also like that as the flies fill it up you just put more water on them before having to change it out. This one worked better for me personally.

I agree with the last two responses. Bigger is better for covers, so go with the overhang. And, I would, and will, find a better reviewed product since my cover started shredding after one winter/spring use.

I own both, and I like both for different reasons. The BB mold is much more stable than this one, but this one is easier to unmold, since you can push the soaps out individually (invert each cube to push it out), while the BB mold requires you to loosen up each side around the cube before it lets loose. As others have mentioned, if you use this one, you *really* have to have something under it before you can move it - it will flop all over the place, spilling soap everywhere. I make CP soap.

I have had both and I would take the Frieling every time. There is nothing wrong with Bodum, but the glass units are fragile, break all the time, and are often not insulated like the Frieling. I have never experienced any adverse taste from the metal; most coffee shops use metal for steaming. I might think twice if the product were aluminum, but I think you will really like the stainless steel and it is virtually indestructible.
