Weight Watchers WWA22-24D Divided Skillet, 10-Inch

Nice product
This pan is perfect for cooking two items at the same time without the food mixing together. I love when I have to make eggs and pancakes. Its perfect. Even though the pancakes are half a circle my family doesn't care. It saves time for me and only one pan to clean up. Clean up was simple, the food doesn't stick. There was no scrubbing, food just falls off the pan in dish soap and water. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to cook two dishes at once. It is a small pan so only two pieces of chicken can fit in one side of it. Just to give you a ruff idea how small the one side is.

WMF CeraDur Gourmet Non-Stick Skillet, 11-Inch

Disappointment
I would give this pan a zero if I could. I recently bought this pan in Germany from the Post Exchange and am disappointed with the quality. I followed the instructions and coated it with olive oil just like it said. I cooked everything like it said to, and it is the worst pan I have ever bought. I even called up my aunt who works at Sur la Table to see if there was anything that I could be doing wrong. No, it is just poor quality. My aluminum Bene Casa pan and 9 year old Revere ware non-stick pans are more non-stick. Looking across the surface of the pan, you can see the tiny, pore-like indentations. I have to agree with the first reviewer because I don't think that this company would have lasted as long with its reputation intact in Europe if the pans that they sell on the economy here were as bad.

Fantastic cookware
I don't know what happened to the pans of the other reviewers but I have three pieces of this cookware in various sizes and absolutely love it. For the first time I can cook without needing any oil at all unless I am adding it for flavor. Scrambled eggs this morning in my 8" pan and used nothing and they came out perfectly. Rinsed the pan with my instant hot water and a little soap and it came perfectly clean. I have had the 8" and 11" skillets for several months and they are my go to cookware along with my heirloom cast iron skillet. I use them every day.

Not what I had hoped for.
While stastioned in Germany I bought a set of WMF pots and pans, and two frying pans which I loved. I am very dissappointed in the two I bought as they stick, no matter how I prepare the pan. The ones bought in Germany lasted and lasted and never stuck, but these new ones were sticking from the first use which leads me to believe that the exported, expensive product is not the same quality you get in Germany. I'm very dissappointed, and won't buy them again.

WMF Perfect Plus Sealing Ring, Small

it didn't work, but maybe it's not gasket seal's fault...
I liked WMF pressure cooker, but after two years, it started leaking the steam between the lid and pan, so I bought the gasket.

I don't know why, but it didn't work. I don't see the steam, but just my pressure cooker didn't work.

I have Fagor stainless steel pressure cooker. Some steam is away between the lid and pot, but it does work as a pressure cooker.

Brian
It doesn't work for my cooker either. Too bad. I guess it's MADE IN CHINA.

seems like the genuine article
Can't see any difference between this and the one that came with the cooker.
This fits the very small wmf cooker (1.5L I think) that only comes in one height, not the other larger models.

Track Rack Swivel Hook in Aluminum

I guess I'm odd man out
I have this pot rack, I love it, except....the swivel hooks are a pain.
When attempting to put a pot back, you bump the hook and it swivels out of the way.
Aaarggggghhhh!!!
I'm replacing all my swivel hooks with the stationary.
The pot rack itself is great.
People are always commenting on it.

worked great
I bought the rack for these hooks. I wanted more and didn't know for sure if these were right but they were and worked wonderful.

Rack Swivel Hook
The Track Rack Swivel Hooks are a perfect match to the ones that came with my pot rack (I bought a few years ago). I would recommend this item to anyone who is looking to add more hooks to their pot racks that that these hooks fit.

Oneida Stainless Steel Cookware Set

I love this set!
I purchased this set on sale at BJs two months ago. I wanted to switch from aluminum to stainless steel cookware, but was hesitant because of the reviews I read. I'm so glad that I purchased this product. The food cooks faster and I haven't had any problems with cleaning. I never leave food in the pots overnight, always soak the pots with water and then rub 'Bar Keepers Secret' on the hard-to-remove spots (available at Target).

Note: I read that if you are allergic to nickel, you should avoid using stainless altogether.

FANTASTIC SET
I needed a new set of pots/pans and had just bought some silverware from Oneida of course.. and I really really liked the silverware.... so when I went to buy a new set of pots/pans I thought... who would know stainless steel like Oneida. So... I saw the set and immediately loved it. I actually got the 12 pc set.... and I LOVE IT! Have had it a few weeks now.. I use it every day and it still looks like brand new! A little Bar Keepers Friend and even the bottoms are shiny new! The ONLY thing I can complain about is that the handle will not hold a fork.... you cooks know what I mean! But that is it.... GREAT set. Cant say enough about em. I would buy them again in a new york second!

I have now had this set 7 months... and it still looks like new! I am SOOOO pleased I had to add it to my original review! Has a perfect weight to it.... can use metal utensils, cleans so easily... even in dishwasher. Will absolutely be the last set you ever need to buy! Would be a...

LOVE IT!
I had been looking for a reasonably priced Stainless Steel cookware set to replace unhealthy NON-STICK cookware. This one covers all the bases.

Listen, if you are used to cooking with non-stick cookware, obviously cooking with stainless steel cookware is going to be a little different, but a chef friend of mine told me a little secret to prevent sticking.... always preheat the pan first. Works like a charm. I have cooked eggs in the frying pan with literally, 1/2 tsp of butter for flavor and had no sticking at all (I never use cooking spray -nasty stuff- it will goop up your pans). I've cooked oatmeal in a pot without sticking as well.

Stainless steel cookware requires a lower burner temperature. The only thing you should be cooking on high is water!

If cooking on a gas stove, the flames should only hit the bottom rim of the pan.... if it's licking up the sides, you are going to burn the pan and cause discoloration.... that is your fault, not the...

BroilKing NBS-3RT Professional Triple Buffet Server with Rolltop Lids

Awesome!
First of all, there is a lack of reviews on the BroilKing Buffet Servers. I got my first one today and the other will be here tomorrow. The quality is good and all of the pieces fit together very well. It is exactly what I wanted in this kind of product. You can buy cheaper servers, but they will not have the quality and versatility as the BK. I would definitely recommend this to my friends...well, I won't have to when they show up to my house for a BBQ and they see my server.

GSI Outdoors 2 Quart Blue Graniteware Sauce Pan, 17177

Wish it were better quality.
This pan arrived chipped. I think it may have been packed that way, as I did not find a chip of enamel in the box. Packing not so great--not wrapped, and just tossed in the box with other items that were wrapped and a strip of those inflatable plastic pads. I returned it, as I believe the finish is too vulnerable to chipping (always a concern with enameled cookware) but this struck me as more fragile than some other enameled items I own.

Enamel sauce pan
I had been looking for a new enamel sauce pan for quite some time online, in retail stores, and even at flea market/antique stores. Either I could not find exactly what I wanted, or it was chipped, worn, or discolored from use. I finally found a brand new one that was cheaper than many used pans I had seen. It arrived very quickly, and now I am enjoying using it to boil water and steep my tea bags for iced tea. To me there is no better iced tea than a pitcher of tea that was brewed in the enamel pan. I had worn my old one out until I was afraid to keep using it; now I can sip my tea with the assurance that it was brewed in a new, clean pan that only I have used.

Love this product
I remembered this type of pot from my childhood and wanted to try them now as a cook. They are great. Easy clean up is a bonus.

Calphalon Contemporary Nonstick 12-Inch Flat-Bottom Wok

I like everythng about this pan...
...except for the handle. The eye is a bit too small to easily hang it from a pot rack.

I used believe it was frivolous to pay professional cookware prices for Teflon-based non-stick since the coating wears off no matter the calibre. But this is a great pan at a very reasonable price and Calphalon's multi-layer non-stick should last two or three times longer than a comparable Revereware or Farberware stir-fry, justifying the investment. And trust me, the pressional-weight anodized aluminum base makes a huge difference performance-wise. It heats hotter and more evenly and maintains its temperature even filled with lots of ingredients.

Though its great for stir-frying delicate or stick-prone items like eggs, fish, and rice, I uee it for lots of other preparations. I use it as a general-purpose saute pan. It's great for browning high-fat items like sliced sausages and bacon. However, I use it most of the time for making pasta sauce. Once the sauce is done I...

good wok
I've been desperately looking for a durable, non-stick wok and never found one satisfying my need until this. I tried various brands such as Circulon(sp?) and Analon. Circulon is good but not very durable because residues are easily trapped in the grooves and not get cleaned, therefore the Teflon layer would peel off over years. And Analon is not really non-stick. So far this Calphalon works well for me; I don't know how long it can last though. The only cons are the heavy weight and the bottom are too narrow.It'd be better if they can reshape it to have wider bottom and offer a 13"-er.

Just Be Careful of Non Stick Interior
This is a pricey wok. The quality and ergonomics are good. The size is adequate enough for most cooking needs. JUST BE CAREFUL OF THE NON STICK INTERIOR. You may easily confuse the inside to be anodized aluminum and treat it as such. Reading the fine details, you'll find that the interior is just regular non-stick. So using any metal utensils will scratch the interior VERY easily. One wonders why use anodized aluminum if it's only on the outside. Totally defeats the purpose of anodized aluminum.

Kamenstein 2-1/2-Quart Whisle Tea Kettle, Red

It's a whistler all right:P
This thing is noisy from start to finish. My neighbor can hear the kettle go on through the wall and that's not even when the water is boiling. It's cheaply made and not worth the money.

Not sure yet
When this tea pot arrived I was so excited. The color is really cool- my husband who paints cars was even impressed with the paint on it. I put water in to do a first steam/clean and it never whistled. Then the whistle peice fell out! On the first try!! I have exchanged the original one and haven't been able to really use the replacement yet. I can only hope it works a little bit longer than the first one.

I miss my Kitchen-Aid kettle
I bought this after my Kitchen-Aid kettle bit the dust. I really wanted a kettle that could whistle... well, this kettle gave me a very faint whistle the first time I used it, and every subsequent use after that, the kettle has been silent. Such a disappointment! Oddly enough, I think this kettle takes LONGER to boil water than my ceramic Kitchen-Aid. You also have to be careful when opening the spout so you don't get burned. If you want something that holds water, this kettle will not fail to please. Unfortunately, I had slightly higher expectations for a WHISTLING tea kettle. I strongly recommend spending a little more for better quality!

Fiesta 9 Inch by 5 Inch Individual Oval Casserole, Cobalt

Love this dish!
I love this casserole dish! Perfect size for side dishes or for individual servings. I have two and requested two more for Christmas. Goes from oven to table to fridge. Love the color and size. Very durable, had it two years, no chips, use it regularly.

Perfect
This individual casserole dish is perfect for serving so many things to each member of my family. Honestly, I don't cook in them, but use them for personal serving dishes for shrimp scampi and casseroles. Love the shape. The depth, shape and size are just right.

Beautiful
This is a beautiful, heavy weight baking dish. My only wish is that it were a bit larger. I knew it was small from other reviews, so I am fine with it, but you can really only use this for single portions...or if you are making an appetizer dip or the like, it's probably only good for 3 maybe 4 people.

Turbo Cooker 4-Piece Cooking System

Life-changing cooking system!
This is the best thing I have ever purchased, no joke. I don't know how to cook and was tired of pizza, basic pasta, take out, and frozen meals. The Turbo Cooker has changed my life! The recipes are extremely easy to follow (if I can do it, anyone can), and taste like some of the best meals I've ever had, even in fine restaurants. And most of them are good for you! I have lost over 20 pounds already cooking with this thing, and I don't feel I'm on a diet at all. The recipes serve 4-6, but they store for 2-3 days easily. The meals are delicious. And yes, you can really bake a cake on the stove top, it is an amazing cake, too! Try to buy the extra recipe cards, I have about 100, and they are great. That's the only word for it. Only two dish out of about 50 I haven't liked. It does not cook *quite* as quickly as they make out in the ads, and some of the prep time on the dishes takes about 15-20 minutes, but it is still very easy and faster than usual cooking. And the results...

Terrible customer service, cheap product
If you buy this thing, be careful of the lid. The plastic knob on top broke after only 3 months -- and it is useless without it. I have tried in vain to contact the company, they will not return phone calls or emails. The number is not toll free, and you must wait forever to get through...if you have enough time.
They say you'll save time in cooking, but they'll waste your time as you try to get customer service!
Their website makes no claims about quality, which I should have checked before buying this. I haven't had it long enough for it to start rusting (see comments below). I like the idea, I only wish the product was sturdier, and the company responsive to customers who have already purchased. I'm sure my calls would be toll free and answered QUICKLY if I were calling to buy their product.
The old adage holds true: caveat emptor.

A Real Time Saver
I have had a Turbo Cooker for over a year now and I am completely satisfied with the results. I really like the ability to toss dried pasta into a pan with other ingredients and have a complete meal in 12 minutes. It is however, a product that you will have to 'tinker' with to get good results. I have found that on my stove, using high heat for half the cooking time and medium high for the remaining time prevents burning of the food. The recipe cards are great and I purchased the additional set and these too, are very helpful. I would suggest that you use wooden or plastic utensils with the pan as most nonstick pans scratch when metal is applied to them.
Overall, if you are pressed for time or you want to cook something ahead of time, the Turbo Cooker will be a good investment.

Fox Run Five Piece Canning Set

canning items
I don't typically bother to review items, but I was so pleased with this purchase that I wanted to share. I am admittedly a beginner at making jams so I don't have much experience to go by, but these items made the process so easy! The value for the price is great! I was very happy to have the wide mouth funnel when spooning out 16 jars of strawberry jam and the tightener thingy, (is that the technical term?) worked well with the hot jars. I even had no trouble with the magnetic lid lifter and found it to be very useful as I didn't even need to touch the lids before placing them on top of the jars; thus reducing the chance of contamination. I am very happy I didn't go crazy and buy an expensive canning set as these items worked absolutely fine for me!

Unnecessary stuff
I was new to canning so bought this set. I think that if I were starting again, I would just buy a steel funnel and a lifter.

Satisfied Customer
I am very satisfied with this purchase. It has made canning easier for me. Glad I purchased it.

Staub 12" American Square Grill Pan, Black

Staub Grill Pan vs Lodge Logic Grill Pan - Head to Head
I purchased the 10" Lodge Logic Grill Pan and the 10" Staub Grill Pan at the same time. The Staub pan is approximately three times the cost of the lodge logic pan. I find the Staub pan to be suburb in both look and feel, but both pans are entirely functional. Surprisingly, I found the lodge pan to have a smoother coating of outer enamel - I was less worried about scratching my glass top stove when using it. The lodge pan is about 1/2" shorter than the Staub pan - which may result in additional splatter. The cooking surfaces of both pans are the same size, however the surface of the lodge pan feels more porous than that of the Staub pan.

I found cleaning to be very simple for both pans. If you are having difficulty - I suggest soaking the griddle surface in hot water and detergent for an hour. This gives a chance for the detergent to break down and release fats. If you want to prevent burning - try cooking with temperatures no more than medium high - this is stated in the...

Perfectly Seared Steaks!
The day I got it from Sur La Table I went and bought two New York Strips to break it in. They were text-book picture perfect with an external sear with blood red rare interiors. Incredible for seared steaks or burgers. Preheat on high heat for at least five minutes before cooking. Get it smoking hot before you put the meat on the grill. Juices from deglazing or rendered fat can easily be poured off with the two pour spouts to make sauces or reductions. And it is oven and broiler safe. You will not be sorry!

Perfect for steak and fish
This pan is da shazzizo. Really.

HEAVY cast iron, with a glossy enamel exterior and a rough black enamel interior. It really doesn't need seasoning, as the enamel doesn't rust or stick. Preheat it until smoking hot, add a seasoned steak, leave on for a minute or two, rotate 90 degrees to get those great crosshatched grill marks, flip and repeat, then put into a preheated 450 oven for 4+ minutes, depending on how thick the steak is and how rare you want it.

Seriously foolproof steakhouse good steak, every time, as long as you don't over cook.

The same technique works really well for fish as well. Whatever you cook the sear and blast method works great, and it's easy to make pan sauce.

Although I give this five stars, be warned that it's not easy to clean. Forget trying to get it back to factory condition, ain't gonna happen. However, because the cast iron isn't exposed, but instead your dealing with black matte enamel, you can use dish...

Granite Ware 6318-4 19-Quart Covered Boiler

Perfectly happy with it but...
My pot arrived in perfect condition. It seems well made, no dings. I had a question for the company, sent email, got a response the next day! I would love to use it, but cannot, as it clearly says on the label its not for use on a glass top stove, which is unfortunately what I have - so I have to return it :-(

The pot mentioned in the other review - from Walmart - you can find it on their web page and read the reviews - which are not outstanding to say the least. The handles on that unit are riveted and the rivets will leak if water gets that high, and the metal is very thing. Unfortunately it would appear its the best option for me.

If you have an electric or gas range you should be perfectly happy with this unit. That said, if you're real picky spend 100 or more and get a high end pot.

Awful Product
This product arrived with a dent and some of the enamel broken off. The box was fine, so I must assume it was packed this way. I ended up getting a nice large lobster pot at Walmart for less than this one.

Iittala Dahlstrom 10.5 X 9 X 2-Inch Oven Pan

definitely worth the expense
I invested in this line of cookware about 6 years ago. I have two 3L, 5L, and an 8L of these pots. (There are also some super heavy cast iron skillets that I highly recommend.) They are truly top quality, and are of similar clad construction to allclad. The extra bonus is that they are very stylish. I won't lie... I am willing to pay extra for style with substance.

They also form a mighty impressive display on my potrack ;-)

$300+ for a product made in Korea???!!!
My dad has a pot like this and we love borrowing it. When I saw this available, we bought it, even though it is pricey. But when I opened the box, the first thing I saw was a sticker on the box saying it's made in South Korea. Nothing against Koreans, but if I am going to buy a European product at European prices, I expect it to be made in FInland like my dad's pot, not at some cut rate supplier price. The quality of the product even looks "cheaper" than the one my dad has, and his is well used already and still looks 1000 time better. I returned it right away!

cast ironskillet, long stay cool handle, very thick base, thin wall design
here is what's good about this cast iron skillet:

1)very sturdy, very manly, very well mounted, polish steel handle, stays very very cool to the touch even on high heat, even the closes part of the handle near the skillet is a bit warm but not very hot to burn you.
2) black enamel coating in and out, unlike true cast iron pans, these resist rust and if you get them wet and forget to clean and dry them right away the enamel coating prevents rust from starting.
3) cast iron is very heavy, the designer thought of reducing the weight by making the side walls of the pan thin to reduce the weight. unlike the kind from lodges the wall of those pans are thick and adds to the weight.
4) the base of the pan is extra thick, thicker than ordinary cast iron pans from lodges. This pan sits flat and so thick it won't warp over constant heat and cooling every time you use it.
5) this pan is not made in china. would be foolish to buy a pan for $140 and made in china...

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 2-1/4-Quart Saucier Pan, Marseille

A PAN FOR EVERY USE!!!
How did I live without this pan in my kitchen? This pan has many uses from cooking rice to many one pot meals. The size is perfect for all of these. This will replace a few of my pots and pans. Rice came out so good that my family mentioned it to me and they just eat and leave. The Saucier is my new best friend.

FENNEL COLORED. I do really love it.
I bought this saucier pan to replace two other non-stick pans I had. This one saucier pan I used to replace a 10inch diameter saute skillet and a 2.5qt sauce pan. This is a 9 inch diameter saucier pan 5 inches deep. The saute skillet was 2 inches deep. This also holds 2.25qts. So for all intents and purposes this pan was able to do the job of both. I love that this lid has a little vent hole in it to help prevent over boiling. The only thing that really ticks me off about Le-Creuset in general is that they still insist on using the plastic knobs on all their cookware and you must order the stainless steel one. Seriously for the price you are paying for these ditch the plastic and use the better quality stainless steel knobs. I find it ridiculous that they dont do that. In fact as of January 2012 all of the LODGE enamel products now are shipped with the Stainless Steel knobs and cost a third of the price.

Spirit 12-Piece Cookware Set

Cookware is the best
This cookware is the best I have ever owned. The food does cook evenly,
and clean up has been easy.

I have a small kitchen and therefore storing them without stacking has proven
a small challenge. As I result I purchased a roll of thick, soft shelf liner that can
be cut to fit between each pan. Problem solved.

Made in China
I love the brand but they kinda dropped the ball for making these in China.
Quality still ok or good I would say, however it still sticks somewhat.

Really good product.
Quick to heat up and easy to clean. The only thing is the frying pans are little too small to do stir fry.

Old Dutch Angled Pot Rack Hooks, Satin Nickel, Set of 4

Angled pot rack hooks
I hang my pots & pans with lids by their handles from a home made hanger made from a regular flat steel bar which I then drilled out in order to hang by chains from the kitchen ceiling above our island counter. These hooks were bought as they are shorter than those offered in retail stores plus the twist allows the pans to hang flat against each other. Obviously I use these shorter hooks to hang pots with longer handles so as I do not bump my head into them if leaning over the counter. As I also spray painted my pot hanger bar a copper color then these hooks would have gained an extra star or two had then been available copper colored. Even so they match my need perfectly.

Harold Import 43133 3-Egg Nonstick Egg Poacher Pan Insert

This is NOT non stick
I buttered the egg cups well twice and both times I used this, the eggs stuck so unbelievably badly that I had to spend quite a while scraping the egg whites off the cups with my fingernails when trying to clean this. There is simply no way to get the entire egg out of the cups in one complete package. This is a major pain in the rear end. I am now hunting for another egg poacher that truely IS non stick.

These are also too small for large eggs. Half the egg yoke overflowed the edges of each cup. What a mess! I do not recommend this.

edit: I ran this through the dishwasher and now it almost IS nonstick! This morning I gave it one last try and after running a butter knife around the edges of the eggs, out they popped in a perfect round solid chunk. I have no idea what happened but for some reason the dishwasher treatment turned this into a non stick pan after all. I upped this from one star to four, missing the five star mark due to not having a very good way...

like it
gives good results using sauce pan and boiling water, recomend pan spray before putting eggs into it, a little difficult to handle with the eggs in it after poaching

not non-stick
If you butter the cups first, the eggs release fairly well. Otherwise, the whites not only stick, but a fair amount of scrubbing is needed for cleanup.

Old Dutch 122CP Oval Pot Rack with 12 Hooks, 36 by 18-Inch, Satin Copper

Great quality!
I am writing this review about two years after I purchased this item on Amazon. The quality of this item is impeccable! There is no tarnish and the item looks brand new. I have received so many compliments on this pot rack!

Beautiful for Copper 'THEME" Kitchen
This was a gift for my son's new home. They loved the look w/ their copper cookware. Perfect size for their kitchen

Love it!
Once you find your joists, it's a breeze to install. I couldn't find mine, so thinking like a builder, I figured the joist was in the middle of the kitchen. I drilled a pilot hole & struck the joist 1st time. Then you just drill a larger hole, & screw in the hooks--use a hammer handle or crow bar to turn the hooks into position.

I also have a cathedral ceiling that required 2 additional long bars that Home Depot mail order sent me. I was then able to level the unit off.

Not having any copper pots or pans, I used my hard anodized cookware as an alternative--all totaled, I have 9 pots & pans & 2 colanders hanging, with 2 lids on the top. Looks great!

Leaktite #1GLD Gallon White Plastic Pail Lid

bucket lid
Well, its a bucket lid, what I ordered, came on time and made the bucket complete. Not sure why it doesn't come with the bucket, but that's life.

works great, BUT
As another reviewer states, yup, this is indeed a lid. As to the question of why it didn't come with the bucket, well, sometimes you need a lid for your bucket, sometimes you don't. I like that the manufacturer/distributors gives consumers a choice.

The reason I do not give it five stars is because the first two or three times DH and I tried to put on and remove the lid from the matching bucket, it required a Herculean effort. It still takes a bit of force to get it off and put it back on about a dozen openings and closings later, but I guess it wouldn't be as "leaktite" if it were any looser.

Honey-Can-Do 8-Shelf Non-Woven Hanging Closet Organizer, Pink

Works perfect
I got this to organize my sons room as opposed to a dresser. This works very well, that way he can't hide stuff in random drawers (he's 6). It is spacious enough for all of his pants, shorts jammies- basically all of his laundry that gets folded. I would recommend this for all kids bedrooms.

"Love at 1st Smoke..." Stash Jar Bundle

Jars
I love these! I bought a couple for myself, I want the entire collection! I can't wait until I'm off probation so I can use them more often!

REALLY SMALL
While the container itself does measure out 3"x2".. the actual space inside that you can even store anything is LESS than 2"x2" I knew that you would lose some space because you can see in the picture the air tight lid takes up some room. but the bottom of the glass is .5" thick and that with the lid takes up too much space. Not going to return it because it is cute, just REALLY REALLY small. Won't buy this again.

"Love at 1st Smoke"
Ordered this Jar as a stocking stuffer for a female friend, because the one I had previously purchased is so great! The seal is tight, but not binding. The glass is of high quality and from Cannaline, you can't go wrong. She loves the jar and has since tossed any other containers she previously used for stashing.

Stansport Non Stick Steel One Person Cookware Set, Black Granite

They're okay I suppose
I didn't read the description closely enough before I bought these so I was a bit surprised at how TINY they are. But that's my fault. But I've used them and they work well enough for what they are. The handles are annoying to me because they just won't stay in one place. Other than that, they're not bad. The cup is a useless, cheap piece of plastic. I don't even know where it is anymore... I probably tossed it.

Very nice
This set was a gift and my son was very happy with the size, quality and weight. Will be great for hikes

extremely small
This set is very small. Even the biggest pot is not is not enough for a spaghetti dish. I usually cook for 2days or more. If you're like me, this is not enough, def. But I think i can use for warm-up something.

The quality of non-stick is quite good. You can use the pan for 1 suny-side-up. Still, I'm not gonna recommend this.

Berndes SignoCast Classic 9-1/2-Inch Skillet

Berndes Cookware
We have tried many brands of cookware but are totally satisfied with Berndes. We now have skillets, and various sizes of pans by this manufacturer and highly recommend this product to those seeking the highest quality cookware.

Great non stick pan
This is a wonderful pan - I replaced my original one that I bought many years ago, because I wasn't too careful and used regular forks when turning the food - and that knicked up the bottom of the pan. I am being very careful with my new pan. The heat is distributed evenly in this pan, and it really cooks great!

Awesome Pan
Replaced our old non stick pans with the Berndes. The bottom is thick and will never warp! Heats very evenly. Bought this mainly to cook eggs in the morning and I will tell you that it works extremely well. Nothing sticks even blistered cheese comes right out. I should have bought one of the sets since I already want to add more sizes.

6pc Silicone Egg Poachers

Not so Great
I don't recommend these as the best silicone egg poachers--the poachpods are far superiod in terms of the end result. It's a great design with flat bottom so it doesn't roll over, and the little handles, but the egg doesn't come out as creamy and there isn't as much room in them as the poachpods so you can't add any ingredients like cheese or an extra large egg without it spilling over. too bad because I loved the design and price.

For the price worth it though not my favorite
These do a great job of poaching eggs. The egg slips out easy. For the price this is an excellent value ... However I really like the Fusionbrands 3-Inch Silicone Poach Pod Egg Poaching Tool, Green much better.

The shape of the eggs from this set is oval. The shape of Fusionbrands Poach Pods is more round and it works better for breakfast sandwhiches on English Muffins

Also the sides of these poachers are thicker and it seems not to cook the egg as fast as the Fusionbrands Poach Pods.

In both product the egg slips out easily regardless of how hard the yoke is cooked.

If your cooking for a family or a crowd this product is excellent. If you are just cooking for one or two the Fusionbrands Poach Pods are much better.

Tricky to get your eggs just right...
Getting your eggs just right apparently takes some practice. Best to butter or spray pods with oil. Cooked in frying pan about 1/2 full of simmering water with lid on for approx. 5 1/2 minutes (large eggs) I made overdone first time, very nice second time, too runny third time. Poached egg whites are noticeably more tender throughout. Also no crusty edges you sometimes get with frying and much less greasy of course.

These have a little square foot on the bottom and will sit upright on their own.

I like the softer texture of the poached eggs and I'm hoping I can learn to consistently get properly done eggs out of these. Otherwise I'll abandon them. I'll get back to you on that...

I found a recipe for grits here: [...] This came out ok.

Does anyone else have any recipes for cooking in these?

Victorio 16-Ounce Shaved Ice/Snow Cone Syrup, Lime

Tastes great...
This syrup tastes good! But I'm only giving it 4 stars because you only get about 4 or 5 snow cones out of this much syrup! I was surprised by how much you need and how small these bottles really are. I thought the price was pretty good! But you really need more than this if you are going to make a lot of snow cones.

Yummy
Yum. I love using this to make my own snow cones and slusheies . This arrived before it was due to come in.

Perfect snow cone flavor
I love this product, it gives the perfect flavor and anazing color, and it is so easy to pour. A++++ product with crazy fast shipping

MSC Joie Bacon and Egg Ease

Works well
If you follow the directions, it does exactly what it says it will do. I like to make myself a breakfast sandwich in the morning. This makes the egg and bacon easily. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there are 5 pieces to clean.

Getting another
This product worked exactly as it said. I even used two slices of bacon. Very important to cook both as instructed at half power. Liked it so much I am ordering another so my husband and I can eat together without having to wash after the first use. Cleaning up is no messier than cooking differently and this gadget is so compact. I would recommend it to anyone who likes egg and bacon muffins for breakfast.

terrible
Did the makers even try this product before putting it on the market? No matter how you use it...the egg literally EXPLODES during cooking thus getting egg everywhere in your microwave. Money wasted on product. A coffee mug sprayed with non stick spray works fine...without blowing egg up and without costing $7!

KitchenAid Gourmet Hard Anodized Nonstick 9" & 11.5" Skillet Twin Pack

Excellent Plus!
After 40+ years of marriage we finally tried these nonstick pans. They are the first nonsticks we like, other we simply threw away.
Our long lasting Stainless pans finally gave up (handles broke off), they were used daily for over 40 years and didn't owe us a thing!
Tried these Kitchen Aids and some compatible tools and are very happy with their performance, ease of use, easy cleaning etc. I don't expect the extra long life of our Stainless set but their quality and ease of use make them a pleasure to use.

The Set of pans is amazing.
I really like the 9" pan for I am single and frying is made easier for portion size with a slightly bigger pan than an 8 inch smaller than a 10 inch. And the larger pan 11 1/2 inch is great for bigger portions when company is coming. Easy Clean up.

Decent Quality
2 pk of pans just as described. Non-stick has lasted a long time (I think I bought the pans a year ago?). My only complaint is that they are a little thin and things tend to burn much faster than they do in my heavy Caphalon pan. But these are much cheaper than Caphalon. So... for the price, they are a great buy.

Leifheit Canning Supplies 2-Cup Glass Preserving Jars, set of 6

Loud & Beautiful
These jars are better than I expected and are gorgeous filled with pickles or jam. When the jars seal they make a loud thunk sound that makes me jump every time. The lids are the same size as your standard wide mouth jars, so you can use these jars again and again for canning without special ordering Leifheit lids. I have given my preserves as gifts in these jars and everyone loves them!

Delightful preserve jar for gifting
I was looking for a preserving jar that would transcend the old pints and show off brandied peaches, pears and this seasons pickles with novelty. At the same time I wanted to avoid some of the pitfalls of some creative European designs--- jars,sealing rubbers and lids that are difficult to keep sterile in the canning process and lids that require something odd sized be purchased for reuse.
These Leifheit jars have a great look! They draw many comments and compliments and the lids can be replaced for the next canning cycle by common stock sold most anywhere.

Useful and Charming
I wanted a jar that was worthy of gift giving. My sister-in-law taught me how to make plum jam this summer and I thought it would make great Christmas gifts. I chose these jars for their unique shape and charm. I was not disappointed when they arrived. A bit of raffia or ribbon tied around the lid with a homemade tag attached and you have a thoughtful and charming gift.

Chicago Metallic Non Stick 14-Inch Perforated Pizza Crisper

Turns Out A Nice Pizza
I own a couple of these pans. They are perfect for thin crust pizzas for several reasons. These pans have a non stick coating so pizzas slide on and off easily. They are easy to clean with warm water and so. The dark finish produces a nice golden crust and the perforations on the bottom of the pan produces a crisp, non-soggy crust.
The 14" diameter is a good size and can be used for small or large pies.
Overall, these are nice pans that have all the features I wanted and I am pleased with them.

Commercial II
Though the picture and description of this pan are for the Chicago Metallic Non-Stick pizza pan, what I received was the Commercial II uncoated pizza pan. It isn't a problem for me, but if you are matching other items or have a strong preference, you may want to try a different source.
I love the Chicago Metallic pans. I have primarily used the Chicago Metallic line as opposed to the Commercial II line, but find that both offer excellent performance. I like the heavy construction of these products and find them to be MUCH more durable that other lines of bakeware.

My second pizza pan
I had one from before and bought this one. I like how they both work.I know make two different pizzas for everyone.

Vasconia 32-Quart Aluminum Steamer with Lid

Perfect fit for Weber Smokey Joe
I just wanted to say this pot was a perfect fit for my Weber Smokey Joe smoker and the price was great at $29.99. Shipping was super fast and the package was well protected in 2 boxes when it came

Ideal Low-Cost Crab Pot
This all-aluminum pot is an ideal, inexpensive crab pot for Chesapeake Bay, Atlantic, or Gulf of Mexico Blue Crabs.

The bottom is 13 3/4" in diameter and fits nicely over one burner on the typical gas or electric range. Wider ones I've checked draw the comment: "...doesn't fit right." It's 12 3/4" high so it easily fits under the exhaust hood.

If you watch the "Equipment Corner" segment of "America's Test Kitchen," you know that the preferred handles for handling large pots are the ones solidly attached to the side, near the top, and protruding up and away from the pot. This pot has them with each handle protruding 2 1/4" away from the pot, attached with four solid rivets, and with a rubberized grip coating each one as opposed to the bare metal ones shown in the picture above.

The steamer insert sits horizontally on a ridge in the pot 2 1/4" above the bottom. I has two near-center 11/16" holes so you can handle it with the fingers of one hand and...

great for brewing beer economically
This stock pot is great for the price, and works quite well when brewing batches of beer requiring a boil larger than 5 gallons. As long as the oxide layer is already present inside (accomplished by simply boiling water for about an hour) no off flavors or metallic aftertastes occur in your finished product. The pot is easy to handle and brings water to a boil quickly due to the better heat transfer properties of aluminum over stainless steel. If you cannot afford the stainless pot in this size (somewhere around $110) then this is a great substitution for a great price!

Stainless Steel Multi Roaster - Four Cookware Products in One, including Extra Large Roaster

The best roaster
I was not sure what the size was when we purchased this roaster. It is about 18"L x 9"H x 12"D. It works wonderful, and the clean up was so easy. It is the best roaster I've ever used. Worth every penny!

Does not warp
Says it all. It's heavy enough that it doesn't warp. I can deglaze on the stove. It can go into the dishwasher. The only thing that it can't do is put itself into the oven!

Awesome Roasting Pan
This product is discribed very well. True to it's description. We are so happy to have found this roasting pan. Will use it alot! Loved the first use.

12-inch Authentic Chinese Bamboo Steamer - 4 Piece Set

Bamboo Steamer fun !
Well, I must say I've been quite happy with this ultimate low tech device. 3 tier steamers are rare outside of the restaurant industry. Obviously it provides a third option when cooking and re-heating. The layers and lid fit tightly and steam powerfully. Note that this tight fit forces you to use care and pot holders when opening. My old 2 tier steam was leaky around the sides, which didn't impair its function, but did allow handling with bare hands. Being a proficient steamer, I'll try anything and most everything steams nicely. An unopened can of Campbell soup can be heated in 5-7 minutes! All in all, I highly recommend this product.

Eastman Outdoors 37208 Deep Dish Carbon Steel Wok (22-inches)

Seasoning cast iron cookware the easy way--sort of... lots of steps.
Carbon steel like cast iron does need to be seasoned. But once it's done it's very non-stick.

An easy way to season:

Scrub the cookware using a green scrub pad and scouring powder.

Rinse well and wash with regular dishwashing liquid. Rinse again.

Dry in a 325F oven for about 20 mins. If you like, cool it a bit to make it easier to handle, but make sure to continue to the next step while the cookware is still warm to the touch.

Coat the inside and outside of the cookware with a good coat of vegetable oil--not so heavy it's dripping everywhere, but more than a thin coat. Of course use caution with the hot cookware. Put it on a few old towels and use a paper napkin saturated with oil to coat the pan.

Bake upside down at 325F for 45min-60mins. You might want to put Al foil on the rack below the cookware to catch any excess oil that drips.

Repeat coating the warm cookwarw and baking at least one more time. A...

A great wok with performance better than stainless steel
The Eastman 22 inch carbon steel wok is a excellent tool for outdoor use. It is deceivingly large, being most evident when placed on your home stove. It is well suited for cooking for larger groups. The 22 inch size is overkill for most home use. But this does not mean that it is unusable for this task. Do not think that you will be able to use this wok indoors. It requires a special high-output burner for proper use. Most home stoves simply do not produce enough heat for wok cooking and you end up with soggy steamed food. Even with a high output burner, you would still need a commercial ventilation system to handle the cooking fumes. Coupled with the correct wok burner, you can get professional results with practice, which is well half the fun and enjoyment of cooking. The wok is well constructed with two metal handles to facilitate lifting. I recommend using welding type leather gloves to prevent burns when handling the wok.

This wok is made of carbon steel...

Great wok...but you probably don't need the 22 inch wok.
If you are a caterer or own a restaurant,then you probably can effectively use the 22" wok. I loved the idea of a huge wok, but failed to anticipate the challenges it brings:

1. I couldn't season it in a standard oven. I had to resort to using the burner to season it by turning it. It was a laborious experience.

2. I can't easily clean it in a standard sink. Good thing I'm cooking next to the hose.

Get the 18", or search Amazon for "Wok Shop" and get a 14" or 16".

Other than that, after spending 1/2 a day manually seasoning the wok, I've just cooked the best fried rice of my LIFE.

I use this to make jams and preserves. It is the right size to allow for the cooking of summer fruits that make the jam.

Paula Deen Signature Porcelain Nonstick 9-Inch and 11-Inch Nonstick Skillet Twin Pack, Red Speckle

Not Happy
I bought these ... they looked good in the store... but when it came to their use, the small pan's handle is heavier than the pan itself and does not sit level on the burner unless there's heavy food in it which makes for uneven heating. Both fry pans seem to be an odd size. None of my lids from other pans fit them, not even close. Based on this I will not buy another Paula Deen product. I would like to know who makes them and get contact info so I can express this to the company.

Nice pans use them everyday
Bought this set in addition to other Paula den items. The pans are great and I use them everyday, the only thing I wish they had even as an added purchase would be lids, none of the other Paula Deen lids fit them either,or any of my old lids either. Other than that the pans heat nicely and I have made everything from eggs, grilled cheese, to stroganoff in them with no issues. I'd do hand wash them as instructed in the insert and use silicon utensils only as well, they still look new after 6 months of use and am very pleased just wish could find lids to fit them....when did manufacturers stop making lids for frying pans?

So far so good
Solid built, heat well, no sticks. We have a Kitchenaid skillet in a larger size that is scratching on the bottom and is badly fading. No such problem so far with the finish on these. Great stuff

Swiss Diamond Nonstick Wok with Lid - 11"

It's been excellent for many years
I've had this wok for many years and it's as excellent now as it was when I got it. Like any pan with thick walls, it takes longer to heat up but maintains a constant heat better. My experience with this led me to purchase two Swiss Diamond saute pans, which are also excellent.

perfect for the electric stovetop
This is a great product. It cooks evenly, food doesn't stick and it's very easy to clean. The heavy, flat bottom of the wok is ideally suited for our electric stove top. Highly recommended.

Here's something to think about !!!!
I wrote the Swiss Diamond company and asked for an explanation of what the nano-composite material was made of.

After a week or so, I received a polite reply from Allan Wolk, an employee in the U.S. His email informed me that, "Our patented nonstick surface uses a nano-composite of real diamond crystals and PTFE; it is applied using a computer controlled plasma gun at very high temperatures."

Naturally, my attention was immediately drawn to the PTFE. The acronym sounded familiar. What was PTFE?

A quick search of Wikipedia provided the answer: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PTFE)

As Wikipedia explains:

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a fluoropolymer discovered by Roy J. Plunkett (1910-1994) of DuPont in 1938. It was introduced as a commercial product in 1946 and is generally known to the public by DuPont's brand name Teflon
