Chantal 8 x 8 Square Baker, Glossy White

My favorite dish!
This square baker is excellent! It has a beautiful shape with indented handles that make it easy to use. It cooks food evenly and cleans up easily. I love the lime color and plan to buy another one in red or white. It's classy, efficient, and a good price for such a high-end dish. The previous review does not do it justice.

Does what it says.
We bought this a year ago. It looks nice, cooks evenly, cleans easily, serves it's purpose and we are happy with it.

Nice but nothing special
This is a nice looking baking dish and it works well. The color is not the cherry red that it appears in photos, so that was a minor disappointment. I just don't like the feel of the pan (feels like it would chip or break easily even though it's a good weight) and find myself using my old pyrex and corningware instead. Nothing wrong with the pan, just a matter of personal preferences.

Ceramic Marble Coated Non Stick Cast Aluminium Wok with Lid, 26 cm (10 inches)

Coating is so so; very light construction
The coating is so-so. It does an excellent job at non-stick performance. But the coating is now coming off after barely 4-5 months of use. Also the construction is very light and the handle makes the wok tip unless there is food in it.

Stansport Stainless Steel 8 and 9 Inch Fry Pan Set

Handle defective, lasted 5 months...very poor
the skillets cook beautifully and hold the heat well...the handle is a different story,
I used these pans less than 4 months probably once every three days only...the handle literally fell apart when I was taking it off to wash it yesterday. The pans are pretty much useless with out a handle. Great for camping, RV'ing because they stack.

Heavy Stainless Steel Camping fry pan
Heavy stainless steel fry pans take the heat of a campfire and evenly distributes the heat, I preferred stainless over non stick for campfire cooking, I am not worried if the pan gets too hot, a scouring pad polishes it right up. I bought it even after seeing the negative reviews of the handle; I wanted removable handles to stow away. The handle connector could be better.

Calphalon Professional Nonstick II Collector's Edition 2-1/2-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Glass Lid

Kitchen gadget lover
I recently bought this pan to start replacing my T-Fal that is starting to chip after only 5 years. I LOVE this pan. It works great for our family of 4. The clear glass lids are wonderful and nothing sticks to them. Clean up is a breeze and gets me out of the kitchen fast.

The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is the handle on top of the lid gets very, very hot. Not a great idea, as a plastic one would work, but probably would melt if put in the oven.

It was worth the money and am back to purchase another one at this great price!

Love this pan
I've had this pan for several weeks now and I'm overjoyed with it.

JUST THE RIGHT SIZE
I make about 3 cups of rice regularly for meals. Generally the 2 & 3 quart pans I have are either too small or too large for the job. This one is perfect. Being shallow it is squattier on the burner too, so it covers it more efficiently as well.

HEATS UP AMAZINGLY FAST
Though I have a decent set of pans to compare it with, I never realized how much a difference a good pan could make. It heats up in half the time the other pan does. This pan must be made for ceramic top stoves. My other pans are flat bottom and aluminum base, but a bit thinner. The speed difference was very noticable.
Also another thing it does is maintain its heat well and very consistently.

HOT HANDLE ON COVER CAN BE A RUDE SURPRISE
The only negative, was since the cover is glass with a metal handle, you are in for a shock if you are used to a plastic handle on the cover. This one...

you get what you pay for
This is a great pan. I have the larger one and I use it on a daily basis. It is by far the greatest cookware I have purchased! It cooks evenly, and is very easy to clean. A must!

Progressive International 18-Inch Fish Poacher

This takes salmon to a whole new level!
I lived in the Pacific Northwest for the past 8 years, and I was always looking for new ways to prepare salmon. Poached salmon with a Hollandaise sauce is WONDERFUL (& easy!). Here's my recommendation for poaching liquid:
2 Quarts water
3 cups dry white wine
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2 small onions, quartered
3 carrots, chopped
3 sprigs fresh parsley
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 bay leaf
2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. black peppercorns, cracked

Combine all ingredients in the poacher & bring to a boil with salmon (whole or pieces) in place. Reduce heat to a very low simmer for about 1 hour. Lift fish & serve with Hollandaise sauce.
Enjoy!

Stainless Steel Fish Poacher
I love it. Poaches a perfect fish in no time - simple, easy to use, easy to clean. No need to spend $200.00 on a cast iron poacher - this one is great!

Good Price, Good Quality
I purchased this product for my mother who has used it at least once a week since its delivery and has had nothing but good things to say about the quality of the product. She has used the vessel for sea food as well as ribs. Ribs you say? Yup. It's a great pan to put several slabs of ribs into, put the cover on, and slow cook all day in the oven. The internal meat rack prevents the ribs from sitting in fat and allows the chef to coat the meat continuously with his or her own secret sauce throughout the cooking cycle. Bottom line up front; this fish poacher is well made and can be used for many other things besides a luxury steam bath for dead fish.

"Sensi Star" Stash Jar Bundle

GREAT BUY!!
The jar is great, however the logo printed on it does look a bit cheap. The air-tight seal on the jar is very nice and the jar looks very official. The little baggies (which are included) are 100% smell proof and the containers (also included) are great for holding keif and resin. I will most definitely do business again. If you're on the edge about getting this jar don't be, it's a solid buy and it's like dirt cheap. I've seen a lot worse jars sell for a lot more.

Range Kleen 10-Inch Red Fry Pan with black matte interior

Bad news
I heard how great this pan was but everything I cooked stuck to the bottom and it was very heavy. Tossed it.

I Had to Do A Little Homework But I Like This Skillet
Truth be told, I had never owned a cast iron skillet before I purchased the two from Range Kleen.
I had read that this was a good alternative to tephlon coated skillets so I decided to bite the bullet and get a couple. I am so glad that I did.
Did I know what to do to take care of them? NO!
So, when I experienced food sticking, I realized that I was not doing something right. Since I didn't just want to throw the skillet away after noticing rust(!) I did a little research on the internet. I wasn't doing what I should have been doing to keep my skillets in tip top performing condition. I found a site called...[...]. I got some instruction on caring for my skillet. Perhaps the manufacturer could have provided more of this kind of information and helped the customers out (and themselves).
I now have the confidence I need to cook with my cast iron skillets and and care for them... All thanks to Derek!
So don't give up!
Now, if I would make two...

Great for smooth tops!
This cast iron pan is the best of all worlds; pre-seasoned, enamel coated outer (perfect for smooth top ranges), cast iron handle (perfect for using in the oven). It does everything you want a cast iron pan to do, and has been adapted to the modern day (smooth outer for ceramic cook-tops).
It cleans easily with a stiff brush, especially when the pan is not left for long periods with encrusted or burnt food. It is best cleaned while still warm. I use salt as an abrasive, and for germ-killing abilities, when rubbing off crusty items...I add a bit of water when I am desperate. Proper drying and oiling prevents rusting. Frequent use, especially with oils, will continue to season the pan to perfection.
It is a heavy pan, but it is cast iron. It is what it is. Using two hands to handle the pan will ease your burden.

Staub Cookware Round Cocotte - Cherry, Size: 4 Quart

Perky addition to stovetop
This is a great little pot that makes an appearance on my stove almost every night, one of the most trusted members of my kitchen artillery. The pot is sturdy and surprisingly heavy, the dimpled lid is adorable (whether the dimples add anything to the process I don't know), and the combo hasn't failed me yet. Cleans up handily too.

Cocotte, by the way, refers to a small pot or casserole; the word also has other connotations that have nothing to do with cooking. My cocotte has proven to be an outstanding "lady of the night," and you don't need to be a serious cook to get a lot of use out of this little charmer.

Item is great; color in picture is wrong
I am very pleased with this pot. I spent a long time comparing Staub and Le Creuset and ultimately went with this one because of size. I was surprised by how substantial it is, especially the lid. The picture displayed here is not what I received, however. The color pictured is "grenadine" and the pot I now have is in fact "pimiento". That is fine, it doesn't bother me at all, but Amazon would do well to fix this error. As you can see on Staub's website, both colors are reds, just different shades/brightness.

I have used this pot for several dishes already - oatmeal, chicken, soup - and nothing sticks to it. It's great!

Awesome quality
I got this to use for cooking one-pot meals in the style of Glorious One-Pot Meals: A Revolutionary New Quick and Healthy Approach to Dutch-Oven Cooking. She recommends Le Creuset, but the quality of the Staub pot is head and shoulders above Le Creuset, plus the Staub pot is $40 cheaper---$50 cheaper if you replace the Le Creuset plastic knob with the accessory Le Creuset metal know, sold separately for $10. (The Staub comes with a metal knob.)

The Staub unit is better designed and more substantial and (in my opinion) preferable in every way.

The grill portion is not what I would call non-stick. I scrub and still do not get all of the residue off. Even when I oiled the grill with olive oil, it didn't wash off easily.

Pot Lux Disposable/Reusable Cookware 8x8 Pan with Lid - For Oven and Microwave

A good product that is hard to find now!
My wife still has several of these for use at this time of the year and she loves them. They are disposable cookware that you can bake a dessert or a casserole in and take to a party. They have a snap on lid and it makes them easy to carry and not spill your food when traveling. They are also great for picnics where you don't have to haul glass, ceramic or porcelain cookware. She uses them to take food to a pitch in dinner at Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's Eve .

These are really hard to find and it may be because so many people didn't follow the instructions on how to use it. If it is misused it can be a hazard. You can use this in the oven or microwave but you have to preheat the oven and set the cookware on a cookie sheet for baking or carrying. You also do not want to exceed 400

Plastic Red Adult Cheater Training Chopsticks #EC1-R

Great cheaters!
I like chopstocks, and I use them whenever I can, but the one thing I can never seem to get right are noodles, especially the "instant lunch" type in the form cups.

That's where these come in.

I originally bought a set of Holdstix at one of the local grocery stores, and they worked quite well, but the quality wasn't as high as they could have been, and each pair eventually broke after about three months of use.

That's when I discovered this item.

The M-shaped (or W-shaped, depending on your point of view) hinge puts less stress on the joints, so the probability of breakage is far less than in those with a simple U-shaped hinge. Also, these are longer, giving more control and pressure at the tip, allowing for better holding of whatever it is you're picking up. They're also made of a slightly harder plastic, so they should wear much slower. The interior of the tips have a grip pattern molded in, so your noodles (or whatever else you pick...

Staub Terrine - 1.5 L - Black

Fantastic - Pictures Don't Do it Justice
What a beauty this is in person. Pictures just don't do it justice (and the stock image from Staub that everyone uses shows a casting flaw that wasn't in evidence in reality on the actual terrine I bought). Not only will I enjoy owning and using this for years to come, but I'll also enjoy displaying and looking at it.

This design from Staub features a matte black finish with a quality brass knob-type handle on top of the lid that gives an Old World feel of quality, and that's reminiscent of another French beauty, the black and brass oven ranges from La Cornue (such as the CornueFe 110). This is an instant and timeless classic.

Comes with a ribbon tied around the knob like the French flag (red, white, and blue), and a multi-language instruction book. It does not come with a press like the small terrines from Le Creuset in recent years (a rather new development), and though it would benefit from a press, historically they're made by having a piece of plywood...

Siliconezone SZ05KA-10095AA Easy Cookware Lid, Large, White

Great product, optimally useful
I've had one of these for a couple of years, came across it at TJ Maxx, and I'm always looking for something to keep whatever's in the microwave from being blown all over the oven. It looked perfect and I snapped it up. At $5.99, I would have bought 2 if they'd had more than one. Not sure I'd buy at this price, but the one I have gets used almost every day. It's also a great trivet/counter protector. I've used it in the oven and in the fridge.

I really like the ribs that radiate out from the center, that's handy when I'm heating something in a measuring cup, and don't want it to seal, but to just knock down a boil-pop.

I know my sister covets mine, so I examined it for a clue where to find another, and here I am. Guess I'll keep cruising the discounters. Yikes!

Johnson-Rose French Style Steel Fry Pan, 15 Inch x 2-1/4 Inch

Johnson- Rose
PThe Johnson Rose Pan was not to my expectations. I return it because the handle came off, the handle was glued to the pan. Poor craftmanship. There was no bolts or screws just glue.

Garbage
This arrived yesterday and I would send it back today if I hadn't thrown away the box. I used it last night to fry some scallops for company. I found that if the heat was enough to brown the scallops in the oil, then the fluid that seeped from the scallops burned and if I turned the heat down to avoid that, then the scallops wouldn't brown!! This morning I have burned on residual that won't come off despite lots of scrubing. Again, I'm learning that "you get what you paid for" i.e, $30 for a huge skillet results in junk!!

Great Value!
This pan is excellent! The size was perfect for fitting on a gas burner, so we could fry fish outside (no odors.) It has a nice "heft" and fries beautifully. This is highly recommended!!!

Homichef 4.2 Quart High Stainless Sauce Pan

Well built and sturdy, but not exactly as advertised
This pan is a very tough, sturdy and heavy sauce pan. It looks great, is made of good heavy stainless steel and cooks well and evenly. One obvious downside is that the lid does not come with the pan, so make sure you remember to order that if you want a lid for the pan.

In spite of the seemingly high quality of the pan, I did deduct a star because you don't exactly get what was advertised. The description clearly states the handle is attached with rivets, however it is actually only welded to the pan at 6 points. The welds seem sturdy enough and we have had other pans for over 15 years with only 4 such welds, so I'm not too worried about it, however when the details of the pan on the site clearly misrepresent the product I do have to dock some points for that. I don't know if Homichef or Amazon is responsible for the mistake in the product information, but it should be corrected.

Hoffritz HZFD2 Fondue Maker

Perfect!
We decided on an electric fondue for ease of use and safety with our daughter. This one couldn't have been a better choice. This weekend we made both cheese and chocolate fondue. First, nice thing is that it gets hot enough that you can cook right in the fondue pot not on the stove and then have to transfer it. Turned to the #4 setting the wine for the cheese fondue was boiling in about two minutes and then the fondue was complete just a few minutes later (err on the side of using a slightly lower setting so you don't have to be as observant). Once made, you reduce the hear to serving temp and the Hoffritz kept the temp rock steady - didn't have to adjust it once. Chocolate fondue worked just as perfectly.

Pluses, using Pam the clean-up was really easy. Even though the pot is dishwasher safe, it cleaned up in the sink easily (for the chocolate, I soaked it for about five minutes). The forks are good quality - never felt like they were going to bend or break.

Slight minuses...

Perhaps not what you want
Don't use this pot for Fondue Bourguignon unless you enjoy being disappointed. It never heats the oil sufficiently to sear the outside of the meat. Consequently, food takes too long to cook and comes out slightly rubbery. Even if you preheat the oil before placing it on the base (something the manufacturer warns against), the built-in thermostat works against you. The pot is probably ideal for cheese, broth or dessert fondue. It's also beautiful and cleans up easily. I would definitely have given it 5 stars if it maintained a higher temperature.

Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 7-1/4-Quart Oval Doufeu Oven, Cherry

le Creuset Doufeu
Best Dutch Oven. Meat could not be more tender. Pot Roast done 3 1/2 hours at 350 degrees is more tender than one done in slow cooker for 8-10 hours (I actually did this side-by-side test.)

Perfect size and shape
This Doufeu is the perfect size and shape for long roasts and stews. It has all the heat retaining, even heating and easy clean-up qualities of the regular Le Creuset enameled Cast Iron French Ovens.

Pros:

1) The oval shape keeps the liquids and other accompaniments close to the roast. The shape also enables one to put a larger roast in the same capacity pot.

2) It is the perfect size and shape for a very large chicken, a duck or a mini-turkey.

3) The close fit of the lid and pot help keep the roast moist.

4) The little spikes on the underside of the lid are supposed to encourage condensation to drip back on to and baste the meat while it's cooking and the well on the topside of the lid is for ice-cubes and iced water to help speed that process up.

5) The double handles make it easier to lift the heavy cast iron lid than the traditional single handle.

6) The flatter lid makes it easy to store other...

The Doufeu
The Doufeu

I purchased my first Doufeu three days ago. I have wanted a Doufeu for some time but could not justify the cost.
The first thing I cooked was a chicken. The results are a bird that is as tender and moist as butter. The broth that is rendered is a gift from the Gods and if you make soups you will know what I mean. Richly flavored and colored, the goodness and essence of all the ingredients cooked in the pot.
I did not use ice, just browned the chicken and added vegetables and seasoning.
I did not lift the lid too often, I am very pleased with the results.
I wish I had purchased a Doufeu sooner. It is a practical and beautiful addition to my cooking tools.

Joyce Chen 10 inch Lightweight Cast Iron Flat Bottom Chinese Skillet

Good sturdy product
After watching non-stick frying pans deteriorate within a year or two of use, I decided to get an old fashioned pan made of iron. When this product arrived, the surface (cooking side) was covered by rough spiral grooves from machining and I was skeptical of its quality. However, after a month of regular use, with occasional Tempura making with 1/2 inch of oil, the surface is sufficiently seasoned and I have no serious issue with food sticking to the surface (as far as stir-frying meat, vegetable, and rice or making an omelet goes). The product seems quite sturdy, too.

The only minor complaint I have with the product is a small oil leak from the rivet holes, where the handle is attached to the pan, though this might stop with further use.

Le Creuset 2-3/4-Quart Soup Pot, Kiwi

Coolest green pot!
We've benn collecting Le Creuset cookware for years and without a doubt this is our favorite pot of all. It's the perfect size for 2 people and the round bottom is great if you want to start out sauteeing. And that kiwi green couldn't get any happier!

Good things in small packages
I own this in Flame, and use it all the time - in fact, there's a chicken pot pie in the oven as I type. It's lightweight compared to the 5 - 9 Quart French ovens, so it's more maneuverable on the stove top and in the oven, which I appreciate. Its smaller capacity and tapered shape is perfect for 3-person curries, large side dishes, soups and sauces. I also really like it as a vessel for chilling and serving pasta salad and cole slaw.

Though it's an authentic piece of Le Creuset, this item is no longer on their USA website; the larger, 4.25 Quart soup pot is the only size listed. Amazon has slowly phased out several of the colors in the past few months - so if you're interested in an agile, affordable cast iron gem, act soon!

Great Size and Color
This pan is nice when cooking for one or two. I also like its shape, and often use it to bake nice round breads with a no-knead bread recipe that calls for using heavy Le Creuset pans or similar.

George Foreman GRB48B G-Broil Electric Grill with 48-Square-Inch Cooking Surface

solid foreman grill
I've used a different sized foreman grill in the past (I believe the GR10ABWI which was more square shaped) this grill is really quite rectangular, so it seems like its width is too short. However, in most cases you aren't cooking large, square pieces of food. This gets the job done and has a nice feature of being able to suspend the top part over the food (without touching it) which is good for melting cheese. What George Foreman lacks in creativity for naming his offspring, he surely makes up for by inventing such a great grill!

Great product but...
The G-Broil is just like the other George Foreman Grills except it has the ability to lock the top hot plate 3inches or so from the bottom. This will allow you to broil smaller stuff. I would highly recommend you get a George Foreman with removable hot plates for easy washing. Putting the entire grill in the sink (cord and all) is very awkward.

Small
Its was on sale for a really good price and I picked it up. Wish it was more sturdy but it is not. So I just gifted it to some one else and will be buying another one

Le Creuset Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 1-1/2-Quart Open Saucepan

Great pots can't wait to upgrade my skillets
I've had this pot for around 6 months now and like it quite a bit. It heats up extremely quick and is great to cook with. The lip that these pots have is a god-send if you're like me and tend to strain or pour items out of your pots and then return to the heater. There's no over-spill or trickling down the side of the pot. They really work!

The lifetime warranty on these pots allows you to wash them in the dishwasher which is great. I have only had discoloring on the inner-bottom portion of my pots but this is expected when cooking with pots that have stainless steel exposed. Scouring with Bar Keepers Friend will remove this but is unnecessary.

I had wanted to upgrade to pots that I felt I would keep for a long time. I initially had bought a set of Calphalon hard anodized aluminum pots based on the discount on Amazon as well as the reviews. I found the pots excessively tedious to clean and were not very uniform with heating. These pots on the other hand are...

John Wright 73-328 Traditional Gingerbread House

Will Last a Lifetime
This is a heavy, durable, cast iron pan that bakes gingerbread beautifully. The gingerbread releases easily from the pan when instructions are followed. I've had this pan for several years, and recently purchased another one for my daughter.

IT'S MY SECOND ONE
My only complaint about my old one was that I needed to bake more gingerbread house pieces faster for the grandkids at Christmas. I solved the problem by doubling my capacity. The gingerbread molds nicely into either formal house sides (side one) or log cabin(side 2). Couldn't do without them.

Bodeux France 10 Piece Cookware Set

GREAT VALUE on these POTS FOR THE PRICE
~ IGNORE THE NEGATIVE REVIEW ON THESE BEING MADE IN CHINA ~
Don't pass these by for that reason. All you need to do is turn over your fancy cuisinart pots and look at the bottom....yes....those are made in china too!

For the bucks you spend, these are nice quality tri-ply cookware. I actual favor the ergonomic handle design on these Bodeux over the classic cuisinart handles. These have polished insides with rounded corners (makes stirring easier). The 2 non-stick frying pans in this set make it a nice nice starter set for any fussy cook.

Yes it's made in China, Bodeux France it's just the name
So first to address some of the complains starting with:

"Oh it's made in China. False advertising! Blah, blah, blah"

I wonder if they are writing this from their China made electronics, while wearing their China made clothes, as they prepare to go shopping for their China made brand name accessories, and other products. I really hope these geniuses don't go buy Philadelphia cheese and expect it to be made in Philadelphia. I wonder if they're the same people that complain about Egyptian cotton sheets being from China. The name Bodeux France is a brand name, not a reference on where the item is made.

"Food gets stuck. It doesn't do what it promises to do." I hope these people realize that these pots are not advertised as non-stick, except for the non-stick. Which it worked just as advertised. Because of the material these pots are made with, and their great ability to conduct heat, I would suggest people use low to medium heat to cook. That's...

Bodeux France not what it claims
purchased Bodeux France about 1 year ago. Worked great for about 6 months, then food such as oatmeal or pasta started sticking in the pot. Works okay with lots of water, such as veggies or potatoes. I know pasta has lots of water, but a few noodles always seem to stay stuck on the bottom or sides of the pot. I will continue to use these because they are not cheap, but I would never buy Bodeau France again.
