For years I've hated my silverware tray. This fall I had an epiphany, I'm a grown-up, I shouldn't have to live with an inferior silverware tray! I tried the Madesmart large silverware tray, and am SO happy with it! As much as I hated my old one, I love this one. It happens to fit my drawer perfectly, and keeps my silverware (which doesn't stack particularly well) from sliding around and intermingling. If you hate your silverware tray or (gasp) don't have one, you must give this one a try!

Discount Madesmart Silverware Tray
I measured this tray to actually be 16x13. I have a standard 18" four drawer base cabinet from a giant DIY home improvement store and this tray fits perfectly (not forced but there isn't any extra room on the sides). This tray also has enough compartments to comfortably fit forks and spoons (two sizes), and knives, (serving ware for 12). The four equal length slots measure 10". The upper slot is also 10" across. This tray is practical, feels sturdy, looks to be top shelf dishwasher safe, and is a very reasonable purchase price. I am very pleased with it.

Cajun Cookware Griddles 14 Inch Round Reversible Seasoned Cast Iron Reviews
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $56.89
Sale Price: $34.99
Today's Bonus: 38% Off

The smooth surface side is not very smooth but acceptable.
Be awared that the measurement of the outside rim diameter is actually 13.5 inches and NOT 14 inches. The griddle area diameter is 12 inches. The box said 11", a misrepresentation due to Metric conversion over to English measurement.
The product came and made from China which is alright since China has a very long history with cast iron cookware and their cast iron cookware are just as good.
The product arrived fast and well packaged. Customer service at Shopperschoice.com is quick in replying.

Perfect platter for my needs. Great size and weight, BUT the finish was dinged in several places on the second one to be delivered. Not sure if it was just one platter, or a batch, as the first one to be sent to me was smashed, having been packed poorly. I didn't have the patience to order a third one.Best Deals for BIA Cordon Bleu 20 -Inch Porcelain Oval Serving Platter, White
The platter is heavier than I expected, but since it was replacing a cheap plastic one, it's not surprising.

It's definitely something I needed.Honest reviews on BIA Cordon Bleu 20 -Inch Porcelain Oval Serving Platter, White

Best Le Creuset Forged Hard Anodized Skillet Set Deals
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $190.00
Sale Price: $159.28
Today's Bonus: 16% Off

I love Le Creuset products and this one is no exception. When the box arrives, you will see that it says 30 CM/11 3/4" inches in diameter. While under the actual pan itself it does say 12" inches as the Amazon description states, measured, the actual cooking space is 11 3/4". Also, it is not mentioned anywhere on the box or instructions but going on the Le Creuset website, I found that both the pan and splatter guard are made in China. For those that prefer an American/European made product (as I do but it is hard nowadays to not have an Asian made product somewhere in your home), this may not be for you. The construction of the pan is great. It is heavier than my 13" All Clad Stainless Steel non-stick pan and I love the fact that this pan is thicker than any other pan in its class. The sides are 1/4" in thick which results in superior heat retention with no hot spots. I have used Anolon, Circulon, All-Clad etc and (with the exception of select cast iron cookware) no other brand that I have seen/used makes their product this thick. I use induction and this pan heats up so quickly, that high heat is not necessary and use of high heat voids the warranty. For those of you that like a pan that you can start on high right off the bat, stay away! The pan is oven compatible to 500 degrees Fahrenheit and you can purchase a glass lid for this pan for $25 on the Le Creuset website. The splatter guard is solid and not flimsy resulting in a perfect job of catching oil. The instructions say metal utensils can be used, but scratches coming from using metal utensils void the warranty. Also, there is a seasoning process that is done prior to you using the pan for the first time and for those that like to use the dishwasher on their cookware, it is advised to do this seasoning process after every dishwasher cleaning session to maintain the non-stick.

needed a large skillet and a new splatter guard. this does the trick. distributes heat well and cleans up beautifully. the dual opposing handles are a good idea; otherwise, i probably wouldn't be able to lift a full skillet. my only disappointment is in trying to find the lid that fits it. it needs both a lid (preferable see-through) and a splatter guard to be the perfect product.Best Deals for Le Creuset Forged Hard Anodized Skillet Set
We use this set almost daily, and it is the best skillet and screen I've ever used! Le creuset hasn't disappointed yetHonest reviews on Le Creuset Forged Hard Anodized Skillet Set
This pan is ridiculously non-stick, and thicker than my cheap teflon pans. This causes the pan to retain heat better and cook much more evenly. I also can't imagine that it will warp with the stainless steel bottom. I have a (warped) T-fal saute pan, and the lid fits nicely on this skillet.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Le Creuset Forged Hard Anodized Skillet Set

List Price: $179.99
Sale Price: $119.99
Today's Bonus: 33% Off

Bought this item for my mother. She called and told me that I have to buy one for myself that it is the best cooking device in her kitchen (and she owns every gadget you can imagine). She says it cooks to perfection. She was impressed with the real cookbook included, not a phamplet like you usually get with crockpots and such. She loves it! (I'm talking about a person who is very hard to please and has been cooking for a family of 7 for 50 years). So it must be good.
We make a point to eat as a family at least once every week so, I gave this as a gift to my mother for her birthday. We have had BBQ'd chicken, my favorite pot roast, & chicken noodle soup. The recipe for bbq'd chicken was in the book that came with it but, we altered it to our liking, mainly using the cooking times listed in book to improvise for the quantity of meat we used. WE HAVE NOT MADE A LESS THAN STELLAR MEAL YET!! No exaggeration. No left-overs is all the proof I need. We were getting tired of the same meals over and over again, and now our capabilities and options have been stretched to new hieghts. We are only limited by our enthusiasm and imagination. Tender and really delicious meat and vegetables at incredible speed. There are thousands of RECIPES online for free I can't wait to try.
If you use some logic and do a little homework on what pressure cooking does to different ingredients there is no reason you will not love this. The timer and settings are not hard to use but, I recommend that you read the book if you've never used one. When you use the browning setting for your foods 1st, I HIGHLY recommend a grease catching screen that you cover open frying pans with. They are flat circles with a handle to keep grease from popping everywhere and burning yourself. It browns really well and stirring the food with the grease popping is tricky and painful. (High temp browning in any pan spits hot grease, not just Emeril's.) Which makes me think that You can just brown the food in another pan and then dump into the cooker might be easier for some to do. Or get long wooden untensils and you'll be fine. After you set it, it doesn't start the timer until it's up to temp and it spurts a little steam out of the valve after the first 3-5 minutes. After it reaches proper temp and pressure you will know the timer should be starting. Trust it and Do not worry when it doesn't start counting down immediately. Lets it do it's thing until the timer goes off. When you release the pressure give it some room to geyser out a few feet above. We do it under the hood in the kitchen. The steam is only hot right at the opening and doesn't burn. Your wood cabinets will get a steaming if too close and that isn't good for them.
Great for serving 4-6 people that can eat their share. It's incredibly easy to clean. It feels study and the design is quality made. I will always have a pressure cooker in my home after this. I cannot believe I didn't get to use one sooner. I'm sure there are nice ones out there but, Emeril and TFal did it right on this one.
WE ALL LOVE THIS ADDITION TO THE FAMILY. End of story...
+++++++++++++++++++Tip to those who can't get it to run+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cut the solid pieces of food a little smaller. Potatoes and carrots that are large and dense block the internal liquid from rotating around the food creating burn spots where temperatures are trapped under food. It shuts off without running the timmer as a safety feature. If it ran cycle with warning you it would be really burnt 20 min later. READ THE BOOK. THERE ARE LIMITATIONS TO THE CAPACITY OF ANY POT/PAN/COOKER. THIS ISN'T BIG ENOUGH TO FEED AN ARMY. If this isn't a helpful review, you are special in many ways.
Bought this for my husband to cook with. He is very happy with this cooker. Cooks perfect. Uses it about every other day. The only complaint i have, the teflon on the inside pot blisters and peels after a while.
The Emeril Electric Pressure Cooker was the one item of its kind that had no negative feedback. So I went with it.
I found that it had many of the same negative features that other reviewers had posted about other similar items. Totally frustrating. Could not get it to work properly. Most of the time it would just shut down without coming up to pressure. Tried taking some contents out, adding more liquidstill no luck. It would come up to pressure, and then turn off without going the full cycle. Tried it 8 times, to no avail. Read the manual over and over. Tried all the suggestions. No help. Tried rotating the inner lid as it suggested, and burned my hand on the lid. Very badly designed product. Bad QC. How could Emeril put his name on this?
What food did come out was burned and overcooked, even though it never ran out the timer!
The unit sputtered and hissed and leaked. Too bad. I had owned another pressure cooker (that company no longer makes them) and it did a great job till it wore out.
I hope that someday, someone will make a reliable pressure cooker. They're great when they work. If you find one, please let me know.

If you or someone you know are the type that likes to cook at home and are savvy enough to figure out how to research and apply to the kitchen, then this is an ESSENTIAL piece you must have. I am formerly a chef from my younger years but, I haven't lost my passion for home cooked meals that are much much better than going out and cheaper. Anything they do, we can do at home if you only knew how. This cooker WILL get you a few steps closer to 5 star meals.

The All-Clad spoon handles feel great in the hand and the balance is perfect. However, being made overseas for the amount All-Clad over-charges is gouging.

Reviews of Circulon Nonstick Bakeware 9-Inch Springform Pan
This is a pretty good pan, although with 2 flaws.
#1: it is not leakproof, good for cheesecakes but not for liquid desserts (flan)
#2: the removable tray has a 1/2 cm lip that raised, so it's very difficult to remove the dessert out of the tray. I made a flourless chocolate cake, and part of it stayed in the tray. Very messy and not esthetically appealing!
On the positive side, the metal is sturdy and the latch is easy to maneuver, but if I could buy another pan, I would.
The problem I had was washing it. Apparently it did end up leaking into the bottom crevice of the circle outside. If it were truly non-drip, I would like it even more.
So I enjoyed an easy bake for the cheesecake but a bit of trouble cleaning the pan.

I own several different pans in this range, and they all have some weight to them, which I much prefer when baking. The pan is solid and doesn't warp. It also conducts heat quite evenly. I've baked cheesecakes in it and have not experienced any leakage, however I tend to line the base with greaseproof paper before I close the tin around it when baking cheesecakes (so the paper sticks out from the bottom of the tin). I would recommend this pan purely because of it's weight which makes baking a much more pleasurable experience.Best Deals for Circulon Nonstick Bakeware 9-Inch Springform Pan

I can't say enough good things about this slow cooker.

First try was the Crockpot model disaster! Shut off early and I came home to raw food. I didn't want to spend $200+ (Breville, Cuisinart, Emeril etc.) and sought one with high marks. This Kitchenaid was my next try, based on my good experience with the brand's other appliances. I was a bit nervous since there were no reviews anywhere for it but I took the leap. Great decision! I love it! Easy to use, perfect cooking temp, nice looking too. Highly recommended!

Johnson-Rose 8 Quart Stock Pot Set Review

Today's Bonus: 49% Off

This is the fifth Johnson-Rose stainless steel pan I have purchased. As pieces of my other set wear out, I replace them with this brand. It is both budget friendly and extremely sturdy. It takes abuse and continues to look good. The bottom of the pan is very heavy so maintaining a constant temperature is easy to achieve.
The eight quart stockpot is a replacement for my five quart (same diameter but lower sides) pan that I used for cooking pasta and soup. Although I took pains to keep the flame on medium, after four years the bottom of that pan warped it simply wasn't heavy enough to withstand the heat. I returned to this brand knowing how pleased I've been with the other pieces I've used in my kitchen for the last two years.
The exterior has a shiny stainless finish under the lip about 3/4 of an inch in height and also about a 1/2 an inch on the bottom edge where the heavy bottom base begins. The remainder of the pan -the exterior middle -is brushed stainless. This is a subtle yet attractive design feature, and practical.
The stainless steel pans with mirror finishes are beautiful, but over time, scrubbing eventually mars the sheen. After a year of scouring and cleaning, the Johnson-Rose pan with its practical brushed finish still looks beautiful. The pan has a definite commercial cookware appearance but the style is enhanced with its textural variation. A note about cleaning Bar Keepers Friend is the perfect product to use to remove any stains or discoloration and keep the pan looking spotless. And remember to keep the heat at medium high or below.
The lip of the pan flares out so the solid lid that rests on that lip forms a good seal. The pans I own with glass lids usually splatter boiling water out of the pot. These lids keep the pot contents in the pot not on my stovetop, reducing clean-up.
The handles on the pot and lid are not insulated, so be careful to use a pot holder because they do get hot. Based on my experience with this brand, I know that it will be in service in my kitchen for many years to come. It is nice to find quality at a reasonable price.

This is the fifth Johnson-Rose stainless steel pan I have purchased. As pieces of my other set wear out, I replace them with this brand. It is both budget friendly and extremely sturdy. It takes abuse and continues to look good. The bottom of the pan is very heavy so maintaining a constant temperature is easy to achieve.
The eight quart stockpot is a replacement for my five quart (same diameter but lower sides) pan that I used for cooking pasta and soup. Although I took pains to keep the flame on medium, after four years the bottom of that pan warped it simply wasn't heavy enough to withstand the heat.

this pot is great. i can fry things so fast and the food comes out fantastic. the cusomter service department that sold me the product through amazon were the nicest, most competant group on people. i most def buy from them again. what a wonderful product.Nice heavy cast iron fryer but I thought I could fry smaller items in the 4-Qt, like fries for two, but the wire basket sits to high to be cost effective with the amount of oil I would have to use to fry a small amount, but thats just my opinon other than that, something of a greater amount where large amounts of oil are required this is a fine fryer.
