    Useless so-called free crap. Best Buy used to give free items on some purchases, now it's junk downloads like this.

    Great Resource for Improving Your Cooking

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently tried the America’s Test Kitchen Essential Membership trial and was very impressed with the amount of useful cooking content available. If you enjoy cooking at home or want to improve your skills in the kitchen, this membership provides a lot of value. One of the things I like most is that the recipes are very well tested and explained. Instead of just giving instructions, they also explain why certain techniques work and how ingredients affect the final result. That makes it much easier to learn and improve your cooking over time. The membership also gives access to a large library of recipes, cooking videos, and equipment reviews. I found the equipment and ingredient reviews especially helpful because they compare products and explain which ones actually perform the best. Another great feature is how easy the website and app are to navigate. It’s simple to search for recipes, save favorites, and find step-by-step instructions. The videos are also very helpful for seeing techniques demonstrated clearly. Overall, the Essential Membership is a great resource for anyone who enjoys cooking or wants reliable recipes that actually work. Even during the trial, it’s easy to see how much content and useful information is available. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to expand their cooking knowledge and find well-tested recipes.

    Don't like the idea you have to join to use, when not really look for it or it's purpose.

    Essentially bloatware. A mildly inconvenient tax on your time and attention for buying the product it's bundled in with.

    Free Trial Isn’t Long Enough

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Really great recipes, tips, information for home cooks. Wish the free trial was atleast 90 days, to give you time to really explore and test recipes. Between work, kids, and everything in between a month is barely enough time to really get a full experience of the app.
