Thaw Claw Meat Defroster, a Kitchen Essential Tool for Quick and Easy Defrosting of Chicken, Beef, Pork and Fish, Kitchen Gadgets Accessories, Easy Storage, Fits All Sinks, Thaws in Minutes

Good suction and does the job!

When I ordered this, I want to fully acknowledge I thought it might be a gimmick item we'd never actually use. The thing is actually incredibly useful, enabling me to use far less water to thaw my meats, and it does indeed make for more efficient thawing. I'm quite happy I went out on a limb and tried it.

I needed to thaw a pack of oxtails I took out of the freezer at 2pm. The tool held the package under the water as advertised. It was a little difficult to get the suction down, but once it was secure it worked perfectly. The oxtails were thawed out in 30-45 minutes. No water added to package. Package remained sealed from the store. Big enough to hold down a small to medium size package of meat. I have not tried it with any size bigger.

I often thaw my food items out under the water. Especially when there is a change in dinner plans requiring me to not be able to thaw overnight in the fridge. This item negates the need for me to constantly flip the food over to thaw in the sink. I like the size of the "claw", as it holds down a decent sized package. Downside: the suction cup is good but you still need to check it often as it can lose its suction in a stainless steel basin since the surface is never perfectly smooth. I am sure it would work wonderfully in a ceramic basin though. Solution to the company would potentially be a larger suction cup since that is the only (minor) flaw.

I bought this thinking it would be an excellent way to keep sous vide bags submerged. It worked great, but when I tried to remove it from the sous vide bath, the suction cup thingie broke off. So beware about how you go about getting this thing to leggo of what it's adhered to.

This product works. I often thaw meat in the sink and have struggled with balancing items to keep the food under water. The claw does that as described and I found the meat does thaw faster because it remains fully submersed. I thought it was a little expensive for what it is. However, I do use it regularly so it was worth it. I’ve had success with both larger and smaller packets of meat with varying amounts of air in them.

This thing works great! It suctions to the sink very well and holds the frozen food under the water to thaw faster. It’s plastic so it’s easy to clean and slim enough to hide in a drawer. We use ours multimedia a week.

Works just like it should. Defrosts FAST.

Was actually a gift but kept it myself and glad I did. It thaws out food so fast!

Love this item. No more defrosting floating meat for me!

What’s to say, it works! I use it all the time!
