zae123 says "Fine quality for a low price!" about Farberware 10 Piece Non-Stick Cookware Set

zae123 — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 21:51:09 GMT

I purchased this set nearly three years ago.. I spend most of my free time cooking up a storm in my kitchen... and not just for my family!!! This active Mom of three cooks not only for her family but also for her husbands extended family....(isn't it amazing how relatives come crawling out of the woodwork, when they smell good food??) but also for church functions, school functions, local volunteer firemen after a hard call, soldier friends of my oldest child's, when they are home on leave, charity functions, neighbourhood block parties, and the campground gang, and last but not least for friends asa wella s relatives on holidays..I favor this set over my Calphalon and Chef's Cupboard set. I liked this set so much that I bought two more for Christmas gifts. It is lightweight and durable.. Sets and individual pieces can be purchased in a variety of colors to complment any decor..The set is readily available. IN these difficult economic times, one must look for highest quality for......

mommyof3kelleys says "Good quality - nice price!" about Le Creuset Traditional Stoneware

mommyof3kelleys — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 19:56:09 GMT

I love my new red HUGE stoneware from Le Creuset! It's quality is top-notch! I love the even cooking and reduced oven times for these stoneware pots. The coating is nice and slick. Even baked-on food has trouble sticking! My pot is large enough to cook 2 whole chickens in at once. The lid is super-heavy and strong enough to seal the juices in the dinners. The color is bright and stays bright through all the trips in and out of my oven. My only negative comment is about the weight of the pot itself. I know it needs to be heavy to cook evenly, but does it have to be SO heavy???...

Lea6467 says "Calphalon great cookware, easy to use." about Calphalon One Nonstick 16-Piece set

Lea6467 — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 21:03:49 GMT

Great cookware, easy to use!! Calphalon was purchased as a gift for my husband (the cook of the family) since i do not like to cook. But with Calphalon, I will even do a little cooking. I have added pieces to my pan sets with other pieces. I have even purchased pieces from this cookware set for my sister in law. My sister in law is a great cook and she likes this cookware also, she is a cast iron and big kettle type of cook. She felt it was good cookware also and likes using it too.

I wish it was a little more affordable so I could purchase more pieces. I like the variety of sizes and shapes. I really like the big fry pan with high sides and the lid, it is great for stir fry.

Also it cleans up really nice. I do not put it in my dishwasher, and I do not know if it is recommeded to or not, but I only hand wash it. I only use a sponge most of the time I do not want to scratch it.

Maybe make a few sets of smaller numbers of pans in the and make it reasonable for purchase. ...

Pampered Chef Executive Cookware is wonderful...will not warp on smooth top stoves..wonderful~~~~Give it a try! Has all the pieces you need for preparing a meal for the whole family. It has a DuPont Autograph 2 nonstick coating that is great for easy clean-up. You'll love the flared rims for easy, dripless pouring. The thick bottoms provide even heating throughout. They can easily go from stove top to oven up to 400 degrees. Not only is this cookware beautiful, it comes with a lifetime guarantee. Who wouldn't want cookware to last a lifetime??Pampered Chef Has just that. Some values go beyond cost....

Arielle says "Most versatile rangetop pan!" about KitchenAid Hard Base Cooking System Cookware

Arielle — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 02:03:27 GMT

After wanting to throw away my "nonstick" 12" saute pan, I took my husband up on his offer to search for "good cookware". As a manager for a bunch of literal rocket scientists, I wondered what my husband would come home with after his evaluation of all the brands of cookware to choose from. Kitchen-Aid was the brand he placed in my hand and told me about all its great features. As an engineer who knows about metals, heating, cooling, and longevity of non-stick surfaces, his selection turned out to be the most versatile and well-performing pan I now have in our kitchen. This saute pan is about one-fourth inch thick metal so it's heavy and even feels like it will withstand time and many meals. I must say that the non-stick surface is so smooth I don't know how any food can get stuck on it anyway. The handle is comfortable to hold, and the pan heats up quickly. I've used this size not just as a saute pan, but for making pancakes, scrambled eggs, frying one chicken breast, cooking......

esotericlvx says "3 years and I haven't thrown any of them away!!" about Wolfgang Puck Cookware Products

esotericlvx — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 21:31:12 GMT

My husband bought me a set of stainless steel Wolfgang Puck pots and pans for Christmas three years ago. This is the first set of pots and pans that has lasted for more than two years without me tossing them in the garbage. I can see my children getting this set years in the future. The bottoms heat evenly, they NEVER warp, they are EASY to clean and sturdy as the day they came out of the box. I have never so much as even tightened a handle on the pots or the lids. I love the glass lids that allow me to see my food cooking. I highly reccomend this set to anyone! The only drawback is they are heavy, so if weight is an issue, the big skillet and stock pot may be too heavy. The rest are very manageable....

bonniemarie07w — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 10:47:03 GMT

I purchased this cookware 3 years ago and so very glad that I did. It makes the chore of cooking so much easier after a long day. Weighted bottom allows overall heat. The food is evenly cooked and cleanup is a breeze. I never have to scrub these pans. I just rinse them and pop them into the diswasher. Nothing could be easier....

amylestrada says "t-fal cookware set does not live up to its claims" about T-Fal Cookware Set

amylestrada — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 10:15:49 GMT

the t-fal cookware set seemed very ideal at first because it was not sticking and cleaned easily with even cooking however with time the nonstick surface has worn away with just general cleaning and the pans stick terribly even with cooking spray or oil there are terrible hot spots and there are a lot of items that I would never try to cook in the pans at this point - about 3 yrs after purchase - such as omletes and rice for the money i do not feel that they have performed as well as the revere wear that i got 15yrs ago as a wedding present....

Sara1947 says "Pampered Chef Pizza Stone is not just for pizza." about Pampered Chef Pizza Stone

Sara1947 — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 15:25:48 GMT

I have had a my Pampered Chef Pizza Stone for a while now and I figure out how I lived with out it. I use it to bake everything frome french fries to free forem fruit pies. Oh yes, I do make pizzas on it too. If you don't have a Pampered Chef Pizza Stone yet then you are missing something great. The more you bake on it the better it becomes. Mine is nearly black now because I use it so much. Cleaning is a breeeze, all you have to do is wipe it wiht a wet cloth and you are done. It there is soomething that sticks on it all you have to do is scrape it with a spatula and it is gone. Again if you don't have the Pampered Chef Pizza stone then you should get one and beging a new cooking adventure....

nanjolin says "This makes baking foolproof!" about Pampered Chef Stoneware

nanjolin — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 14:24:41 GMT

The pampered chef stoneware is the best. I have never been able to cook cinnamon rolls without burning the bottom when you try to cook them completely; they either come out gooey or burnt on the bottom. This allows you to cook them evenly. Great for cookies too!...

SmartGadgetGuy says "Great set of cookware" about Calphalon One Nonstick 16-Piece set

SmartGadgetGuy — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 16:07:40 GMT

Calphalon cookware is the best. If you want quality, this is it. You can buy cookware sets that are a lot more inexpensive than calphalon but you'll be replacing them every year or so because they will wear out, scratch, peel, etc. With calphalon, you'll buy it and not have to replace for years to come. The quality is well worth the extra price and if you get them on sale, often they are not much more than the ones you'll need to replace much more frequently.

groovylady says "The Calphalon Contemporary Cookware set is amazing!!" about Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 8 Piece Cookware Set

groovylady — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 01:28:49 GMT

The Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 8 Piece Cookware set is just amazing! When I cook, my food never sticks. Even the stickiest of foods come off clean. There is no dirty residue and they are extremly easy to clean. I use my Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 8 Piece Cookware set everyday. The handles don't get too hot, but you should wear mits when lifting the lids off of boiling water! My food cooks evenly and I am not ashamed to leave my pots and pans out because they are very attractive. They go with everything! The pans are easy to use and they aren't too heavy to lift. Even my kids use them. I have had mine for a while now, and since we use them everyday, they have begun to peel, but that hasn't seemed to affect the way they cook. They heat up easily and the outsides do not get too hot....

dwidger says "This is the best cookware I have ever used" about Pampered Chef Executive Cookware

dwidger — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 17:14:57 GMT

Pampered Chef executive cookware is by far the best I have used. The non-stick truly works and anything you cook in it is super easy to clean up....macaroni and cheese, stir fry, and all the messy stuff. This cookware works great with flat top ranges, which is what I use every day. It doesn't scratch the ceramic top either. I would highly recommend this cookware for anyone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen. It is a great investment....

kcarter107 says "I love the PC Stockpot b/c it is big enough to handle any order" about Pampered Chef 12 qt Stockpot

kcarter107 — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 13:49:28 GMT

The Pampered Chef Stockpot (Executive Cookware) is wonderful because it is truly NONSTICK even when I walk away for extended periods and forget to stir! In other pots, I would have burnt up dinner!! This stockpot is great because it is large and able to handle any size order! You can do small dinners, or large ones. You can also use it to do the 'plan ahead' cooking early in the week in order to help the rest of the week run smoothly! Its a gotta have!...

MANDERS1975 says "T-FAL IS TERRIFIC =)" about T-Fal Cookware Set

MANDERS1975 — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 02:07:05 GMT

I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED A PIECE OR 2 OF T-FAL. BUT, UP UNTIL RECENTLY DIDN'T HAVE THE SET B/C IT WAS ALWAYS TOO COSTLY. BUT, SOMETIMES IT GOES ON SALE. EVEN IF NOT, IT IS STILL WORTH THE PRICE. PLUS, IF TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY, LASTS FOR A LONG TIME. I WILL NOW EXPLAIN AS TO WHY I WILL ALWAYS BUY T-FAL FOR THE REST OF MY LIFETIME.
MY POTS & PANS WERE GETTING OLD. SO, I DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO PURCHASE A WHOLE NEW SET. WELL, T-FAL WASN'T ON SALE. BUT, A BRAND I WILL NOT NAME, WAS. SO, I PURCHASED THE SET. IT SAID IT WAS NONSTICK COOKWARE. WELL, IF THAT IS SO, THEN WHY IN THE WORLD WAS THE FOOD STICKING IN THE PAN??? EVERYTIME I COOKED, I HAD TO PUT OIL IN THE PAN. NOW I DO ADD BUTTER FOR FLAVOR WHEN I COOK. SO, NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. I COULDN'T AFFORD TO BUY NEW ONES, SO I WAITED. THEN, ONE DAY, T-FAL WAS ON SALE. BOUGHT IT& THAT'S THAT.I LOVE MY T-FAL! IT ALSO COMES IN A VARIETY OF COLORS.COOKING IS ONE OF MY HOBBIES. I DO ALOT OF IT! SO, GO OUT & BUY U SOME T-FAL! HAPPY...

thefunnything says "Pampered Chef stones are defineitly everything they say ." about Pampered Chef Pizza Stone

thefunnything — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 17:17:38 GMT

There are so many new products on the market these days that the average woman in the kitchen can get confused. However, pampaerchef products deliver 100% of what they say they will do. AND, if something do not please you they stand behind each product and will replace it free or return your money, no questions asked. I respect their honesty!...

stef42678 says "Even Baking" about Pampered Chef Pizza Stone

stef42678 — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 09:08:47 GMT

I love the Pampered Chef Pizza Stone because it is really versatile and makes baking so much more fun because your baked goods come out perfect. I use this to make veggie pizzas during the week and it is so easy to use. I just roll the dough and place my toppings on the dough and bake, it couldn't be easier. The dough browns evenly and doesn't stick to the pan. The pan is also great for baking cookies because they come out crispy but still moist and soft. I have also used this for rolls and garlic bread and it works amazing. The pan is a little expensive, but it is high quality and works great for a variety of doughs and bakes them to an even brown. I like that it is nonstick so pizza crust comes out crispy and soft and it is really easy to clean....
