We purchased the larger Millennium Skillet and have been so pleased with it because the bottom of the pan is HEAVY, so its not prone to warping, especially on our glass-top stove. When we received the these smaller skillets they looked nothing like the Millennium skillet we are using, the bottom does not have the heavy base and they just felt like they would warp the first time and appeared cheaply made. If you are expecting a smaller version of Millennium heavy bottom skillet, these are not for you. Using Amazon's no hassle return process, we've sent these back.

I gave these only two stars due to the flimsiness of the pans they are NOT the old heavy-duty Farberware. One fell to the floor about a five foot drop and dented in the side. I mean a large dent, enough so my existing glass cover would no longer fit on it. I simply took a pair of pliers and bent the side back out that's how cheaply these are made now. I decided to keep them, as they do clean up easily and I already had two glass lids that would fit them, which was the reason for my purchase. These two pans were to replace my heavy old LNT 8 and 9 1/2" pans, from which the teflon finish had finally disappeared after many years of service. However, I don't see these two pans being worth $30, especially if you have a family and plan on giving these a lot of use, which does not apply in my case.

Two-pack makes this an excellent buy! Smaller is just perfect for scrambling a few eggs, or preparing foods for 1-person meals. Very easy to keep clean,. and a very attractive color. Non-stick surface is excellent. Handles are very comfortable, and do not get hot. They are also nice and long to keep your hands away from the heat.

I don't want to give even 1 star, but had no option.

I already had a Dhokla stand which the plate has to get into the grove of 4 stainless steel piece that protrudes from the stand. I totally hated the mechanism. Seeing this stand in amazon, I was so excited with the stand given for this Dhokla plate as the plate may just slide into the stand. So I immediately ordered it and I was eagerly waiting for it. But I was so disappointed seeing the same one what I had. The package was totally broken. The Dhokla stand looked completely different from the picture they had posted. Totally a fake product. Now I want to return it & they want me to pay for the return cost, which is totally unfair. I don't know how Amazon is supporting such vendors.

Reviews of Lodge L8DOT3 Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Meat Rack/Trivet, 8-inch

Customer Ratings:

First of all it's Lodge. It's cast iron. It's American. These are all good things.

But I had to chuckle at a couple of the applications the other reviewers had for this handy little item. This isn't one of the first kitchen implements that you might put on your wish list, but it's surprisingly versatile.

Yes, you can put it in the bottom of your dutch oven, put your meat on top and let the fat drain. Yes, it's obviously a trivet. But I've also used it as a meat press yeah, Lodge makes a couple of presses, and one of these days... but in the meantime, flip at upside down on your bacon and it works fine.

I've also used it as a grilled sandwich press. Put it on a medium burner, toss your sandwich in your skillet, or griddle, then (with tongs or welding gloves) plop this little trivet on top of your sandwich. A couple of experiments is all it takes to get the right amount of heat to brown the top of your sandwich. If you need more weight, put some water in a saucepan and set it on the trivet the "legs" on the trivet keep the saucepan from cooling the trivet and your sandwich is nicely smushed.

But the weirdest use of all time? Olive pitter. No, I'm not kidding. I was making a salad the other night, and I wanted to chop some black olives into it. I grabbed a can of olives and opened it, only to discover that my wife had bought un-pitted olives. I hate pitting olives, but I started in, when my eye was caught by this little trivet and all those interesting holes. I grabbed the trivet, put an olive on end over one of the small holes and pushed with my thumb the pit jumped through the hole and left the meat on the other side. I grabbed a bowl, put the trivet on top and went through that can of olives in no time. Hint the holes are beveled, and the olives sit very nicely in the bevel, but they don't pit as well turn the trivet over and use the "flat" side of the hole.

So there you have it. A kitchen gadget with half-a-dozen uses for ten bucks. How can you go wrong?

I use this trivet over my gas stove burners or barbeque to heat tortillas like my grandmother used too. Also works great to fire roast chiles and peppers for salsa.

Just received my Lodge Meat Rack/Trivet. It arrived in perfect condition and shipping was fast and free. For those who complain about the legs being too short to keep the food out of it's juices please understand that's not it's purpose. It's designed to elevate the food just enough to keep it from scorching. If the legs were longer the same people would complain that it takes up too much room. If you must keep the meat out of the juices make 4 large balls from foil and place those under the meat rack.

If you cook some things in your dutch oven in a cake pan, put this in the bottom of the dutch oven first and it will help keep the bottoms of your cakes and biscuits from scorching--or put it under your roasts or chickens to keep them out of the fat that accumulates at the bottom of the pot. Because of the size, you can use it in all your dutch ovens over 8". It won't work as a trivet for a camp-style oven (with legs) because it's too small, but it's a compact, useful trivet for other hot pans and pots.

Cheap Signature Housewares Sorrento Collection Tool Jar

Customer Ratings:

I know, I know, dimensions are always included in product descriptions, but I always have a hard time wrapping my head around what size something actually is. I've been disappointed before when items are smaller than expected, and I figured when this crock arrived I would have to throw out half my utensils. Not so! This thing is huge! It held all my stuff, with enough room left over that I don't drag half of them out when I try to grab a spatula. It's also plenty wide and heavy that it stays put when you pull out your utensils. I bought this and the spoon rest in gold, and the canisters in red, and I have that nice Fiesta look for a fraction of the price. Definitely a good buy!

The Signature tool jar, Sorrento pattern, is the perfect compliment to the canisters. I purchased this pattern in Ruby and the color is vibrant without being fire engine red. It is a wide mouthed jar, so will hold quite a few tools. I get compliments on this stoneware every time someone comes into my home.

Like another reviewer, I liked this tool jar, but found it was not the color pictured; in particular, it did not match the gold Sorrento canisters and spoon rest that I ordered. The others were a fairly uniform yellow Dijon mustard color, as in the photos, but this piece, also described as gold, was more of a slightly orangey gold color, like the old appliance color known as harvest gold. Otherwise it is lovely and of a generous size. I am disappointed that I have had to return it. It would be great if the manufacturer offered a set including the canisters and tool jar, to ensure that everything matched.

I haven't had any problems with rust and they sharpen up really nice with just a couple swipes on the sharpening rod! We do not put them in the dishwasher and wash them all by hand, being as that none of them are sariated it makes cleaning them a sinch.

My husband got me this set after the previous so called stainless steel set we got rusted after the first wash and use. Well I thought this set would be better given the name but I was wrong. They too rusted and now have spots all over them!! Stainless Steel DOES NOT do this!!! These are not 100% Stainless Steel. They shouldn't be allowed to sell them this way, it's false advertising!

I have found that buying knives second hand to be the best, that is when they actually stood behind their products. After much research I found it is NO LONGER the Cuisinart you probably knew in the 80s. It was bought out by Conair in the late 80s which is a multinational company. Meaning it's not made by the same people and the quality is NOT the same. It still has the name but it's not the same product. They are selling these based on the name NOT product quality! Sadly many big companies are in the same boat.

These knives look good and that is about it. They cut ok but the fact they get brown spots after a few uses is just unacceptable.

You are better off buying each knife individually and spending the money on actual stainless steel!

I love all of my Calphalon utensils but most of them are peeling and melted at the ends. I do NOT keep my utensils in the pot while food is cooking but yet the tips of them have nylon peeling away. I thought maybe I had just received a defective spoon but this is happening to all of my calphalon utensils. I have even tried contacting calphalon about this with no response. Through all of the problems though I just deal with it because I still love them and will just pull of the peeling tips.

This braiser pot from Sitram is a very good performer. The aluminum disc bottom conducts and holds heat very well. Allows me to work at lower gas settings. The flame gets nowhere near the sides of the pot which is great because it's not fully clad. It your dish turns out lousy it won't be this pot's fault.

There may be better deals available as it's a little pricey and doesn't include the lid. It's a very solid performer in the kitchen though.

Imperial Enamel Stockpots Reviews

Customer Ratings:

This pot looks real sturdy out of its box. Quantanium by Whitford non-stick coating. There are some controversies about Teflon and this non-stick coating stating that it would emit fume. Well, my cooking would definitely emit fume if I let it burnt. I read the info online and did my mini research and believe that it's safe. And it should last a long time even with my abuse. We shall see. The coating is over steel and not aluminum which people said that it can cause Alzheimers and other diseases. Threw all my aluminum cook pots out a while ago and not sure if that would fix my impending debilitating mental state. It can be used on any kind of cooking stuff including induction, a real plus for me not having to stick with all steel pots that would stick to things! I bought the "rose" design and do like the purple design better but a sale eliminated all doubts. Rose looks a bit cheesy to me.

Probably Made in China although I looked everywhere for such mark and could not find it. Other countries have no problems displaying the origin of their products. China does.

I like this pot and do recommend it when on sale. Probably very easy to clean. Quite heavy. Enamel on the outside, so harder to clean on the outside. My guesss that with time the lid will have tiny rust line at the enamel steel rim like other enamel steel pots that I had. Just a guess though and this should not hurt much of anything. I have always removed the rust with steel wool and keep rust away by drying such item after washing.

I wasn't sure I'd like this pot all that much, but now I don't think I can live without it. Being deep, it's perfect for boiling pasta for two, and by using the lid to drain, you can add all the rest of the ingredients and toss it right in the pot, then serve. Yet when the lid is set not to drain, it is heavy and tight enough you can use it to steam cook rice as well. The silicone handles on the pot and lid are a very nice touch.

This heavy weight (tall) pot along with cooking contents is estimated to weigh over 10 lbs. A helper handle to assist with straining would certainly be a nice addition. Other than that, Anolon 'Advanced' is one of the best. There are pouring spouts on each side. This makes it the only pot I have ever seen that is 'southpaw' friendly. This beauty heats evenly and is a snap to clean.

12/5/05 Update: I recently used this pot to boil some Russets for mashed potatos. When I went to strain them, the weight of 2 qts. of water (4 lbs.), plus 1 lb. of Russets, plus the 3 1/2 lb. pot, plus 'X' pounds of pressure on the lid to keep the contents from spilling out was just too overwhelming for 1 elderly male's hand/arm. I would rerate this to 3-Stars if the primary user will be elderly (or a woman who is not into body building). For the more youthful of you, the lack of a helper handle will not seem to be as great an issue and the 4-Star rating would be appropriate.

12/22 Update: I finally 'caved' and am giving this to my son (who won the SE benchpress championship some years ago).

I would have given this 5 stars if it were a bit lighter in weight.

The 1st time I used this pot, I forgot the time and I ended up

Normally I would have ruined a pot or would have been left with black burnt pan markings after cleaning.

Very pleased with the pot and the discounted price.

Honest reviews on Anolon Advanced Hard Anodized Nonstick 3-1/2-Quart Covered

I've had this pot for about 2 months now and for the most part I've found it be be an excellent pot. It's easy to clean and it looks nice. I bought this pot in part because of the straining lid, but I haven't used that function more than a handful of times since I often avoid using it so that I have one less lid to wash.

My one complaint is that the insulating grip is flush with the (hot) metal part of the handle closest to the pot. Because of this, there's a likelihood for skin-metal contact, especially since this pot can get a bit heavy and thus encourages a closer grip distance; I've scorched my index finger a couple of times while grappling with the handle. If it weren't for this design flaw, I'd be perfectly happy with this pot.

This pot is slimmer than a lot of saucepans but it's a bit taller. The material is thinner, so the pot doesn't weigh as much as the commercial grade version. The lid doesn't lock, but most people should figure that based on the price. Straining can be difficult but easily solved by leaning the pot against the edge of the sink over a potholder so it doesn't slip. It's a good pot for the price, non-stick, tall, handle is sturdy.

Discount Cook N Home Professional Grade Aluminum Stockpot

Customer Ratings:

Bought this as a new boil kettle for my homebrewing adventures. Works great, definitely sturdy. Handles are nicely attached and it comes with a lid, making it the best value for the money I could find for a pot this size.

Pro: The wide base soaks up excess heat from the burner, as I'm still using the smaller burner that came with my turkey fryer. This has kept my time to boil low, despite the high volume.

Con: I do Brew in a Bag, and I didn't consider the surface area:volume ratio of this pot. Because it's so wide and short, it definitely loses heat faster over that hour. However, my mash went pretty well and I think I can adjust to this in the future. However, this is not really the pot's fault, per se, so I left it at five stars. Solid product.

Pro Tip: If you are getting this for homebrewing, the pot is 17" wide. Buy a perforated 17" pizza pan to help you get every last bit of delicious wort out of your grain.
