I have 10 pieces of the Pampered Chef stoneware, it is the best stoneware that I ever used. Many of the pieces will replace any metal pan that you own. It makes the best pizza and cooks evenly. I have made cookies that are ooey and gooey and never burn. It is virtually non-pourous, so it doesn't retain oils odors or flavors. I love it because I use it for many things, you can cook in the oven, microwave or toaster oven. It can be put in the refrigerator or freezer. I freeze my large bar pan around the holiday's when I am making chocolate candy, it helps to set the chocolate in half the time. The deep covered baker is my favorite, I put frozen meat in it and put it in the oven and it still cooks faster than defrosted and in a regular pan. It also keeps your food hot for a long time after you take it out of the oven. I highly recommend you trying the Pampered Chef stoneware, there is no comparison.
