Corning Vision Visions 2.5L Covered Saucepan with Lid Review

Customer Ratings:

CORNING, the creator of "Visions" Cookware is said to have stopped making it, some years back, because it just lasted too long. Still, the advertising slogan for

VISIONS Cookware, "The more you have, the more you want", is as true today as it ever was. Perhaps even truer, as there seem to be SO few Visions pots around.

VISIONS pots and pans are made from amber-, (or sometimes cranberry-), medium-heavy, transparent glass. (Hence the name of the product, "Visions"....you can see what's cooking from ALL angles! THIS IS ALSO THE ONLY GLASS COOKWARE THAT I KNOW OF, THAT CAN COOK ON TOP OF AN ELECTRIC-COIL ELECTRIC COOKTOP, W_I_T_H_O_U_T

an inconvient and easily lost "trivit".

I am fotunate enough to have several pieces of "Visions" cookware already, but I am buying this one piece, because it is the most versatile, and sometimes my "Visions" cookware, being glass, HAS broken. (Yet, I'm much more careful now...haven't had any break for at least two years....) It really IS the greatest cookware, because you can add cold liquid to the warm mixture below, and NEVER get hotspots, if the hot mixture in the pot is at least an inch high. (I usually use my "Visions" pots to boil water in...and save on electricity by adding just a little bit of water to begin with, then, as that begins to boil, add just a little more, and so on.... You CAN'T do this with most easily-"hot-spotted"-stainless steel pots and pans, (except, perhaps, with the VERY expensive, and VERY heavy ones).

The one thing bad about "Visions" cookware is that it burns very easily. However, if you watch the pot, burns probably won't happen. And burns can be ELIMINATED by pouring a mixture of 1 part lemon juice, (OR 1 part vinegar), in the pot, to 4 or five parts water, (more vinegar or lemon juice if the burn is very bad), and letting it either stay overnight, (for light burns), or bringing the mixture to a boil, then simmering it for a while, After the burn comes off, just wash out the pot!)

I find that the 2 1/2 quart pot is the most versatile, and so I am buying just the one part here, instead of a 3-piece set, which I could buy on some auction sites on the web. Being of a medium size, it's good for just about everything.

I do, however, possess one HUGE 4.5 quart "Visions" pot. There are many uses for this big pot....but one which I recently discovered is as follows. Eggs were on sale. I bought 3 ccontainers of 18 eggs each, on sale. Since the only way I eat eggs is hard-boiled, and since hard-boiled eggs last longer in the refrigerator than raw eggs do, I put the eggs, (18 at a time), gingerly into my big 4.5 quart "Visions" pot, covered them with water, let the water come to a boil, then lowered the heat, and let them simmer there for about 45 minutes. Then out came the gggs, carefully, one by one. After letting them cool, (in my 2 1/2 quart "Visions" saucepan, I put htem back in the cardboard crate they had come in, and put that in the refrigerator. I did this three times.....

If you can get only one piece of Corning's "Visions" cookware, I suggest this versatile 2.5 quart size. Not too big, not too small -just right for most cooking adventures.

I know I'm not alone in wishing Corning would again make "Visions" cookware. It is one of THE greatest inventions in cooking, ever. And don't worry about people not buying more, Corning. EVERY new bride wants a full set of "Visions" cookware, (or would if she knew how great "Visions" is!) And the population of Earth is ever-expanding, at this point! : )

"Visions" cookware -now and forever! "Visions" cookware -bring it back, please! Customers who sorely miss telegrams, Polaroid cameras, trolley cars, original "Twinkies", public telephones.....and so many other great things no longer with us, will, I am sure, buy up all the "Visions" cookware you can produce, in gratitude and happiness!

Start with producing this ever-versatile 2 1/2 quart pot! I know other, younger customers will love it as much as I do....once they get to know the product!

Please?

Honest reviews on Corning Vision Visions 2.5L Covered Saucepan with Lid

The pot was late in arriving and arrived without the advertised lid. The pot was also dirty when it arrived and had to be scrubbed to get it clean. This was supposed to be a new pot. After some communication with the seller, VP_sellers, and AMAZON, I received a partial refund. the pot otherwise is quite useful and functional. I like the clear glass pots for cooking because you can see what is happening inside the pot. I found a lid, so the pot is completely useful now. A very serviceable item.

I asked for a new one and I found out after processing the order that it was in bad condition, not worth $25 for sure, it was too late to cancel the order. With shipping and handling I ended up paying $42 for a bad pot. I would like to purchase a new one still, can you help me. Thank you sincerely, Carmelita .
