Buy OXO Good Grips Brushed Stainless Steel

Customer Ratings:

I was tired of nylon and other plastic spatulas and turners. Most of them have a thick edge and are not sufficiently stiff to really scrape something out of a pan. Using a cheap plastic turner to flip hash brown potatoes in my cast iron pan resulted in a melted edge on the turner and bits of potato still stuck to the pan.

This stainless steel turner is the answer to that problem. It is stiff and heavy duty enough to handle pretty much any turning duty in my kitchen. If you need a flexible turner, this is not it. It has a non-slip material inserted at the holding end of the handle that makes it comfortable to hold. However, if you need to "choke up" on the grip and hold it closer to the turner you will be holding the edges of the turned over steel, which is not very comfortable. Being stainless steel, I don't have to worry about leaving it leaning on the side of my cookware and having it melt. The handle is a good length long enough to keep your hand away from the cooking surface but no so long as to make using it awkward. I used it to get the cookies off my cookie sheets and it worked okay for that, even if the edge could be just a little bit thinner to get under the cookies.

If you are looking for a stainless steel turner, this is a good one.

I've owned it for two years now (Jan-07 to Jan-09). It's still intact, no chips bends or breaks. Great investment.

*original review*

It's sturdy, well built and does the job. Slightly heavy, which is the thing I love about it

These OXO stainless tools are the best. Solid, well build, includes a hole to hang them. Unlike the Kitchen Aid which tip out of the pan due to their imbalanced weight characteristics, the OXOs are well balanced. It's slightly heavy which I like. Doesn't scratch very easily and washes nicely. This is my line of choice.

Honest reviews on OXO Good Grips Brushed Stainless Steel

Purchased these for use on cast iron and hard anodized aluminum cookware. It was actually looking for more Calphalon brand SS utensils, as I have two that I have been very pleased with, but it seems that the line I wanted had been discontinued. In comparison, these are not as sleek and polished, or as well crafted. However, they are half the price or less, and work well enough. Good weight and balance, good grip surfaces. For what they are, I'm well pleased and would purchase them again.

OXO's line of brushed stainless steel kitchen utensils are nicely balanced and feel great using them. My only complaint is that after putting them through the dishwasher, they have developed some surface rust spots. They scrub off, but I hate to have to worry about the rust each time. Must be cheap stainless steel composition.

Lodge A5DOL Parchment Paper Dutch Oven Liners, pack of 8 Review

Customer Ratings:

This is NOT a must-have product; but it IS a GOOD product. 8 flat parchment liners, each 20 inches in diameter will fit nicely in a 12-inch (6 quart) cast iron DO. I used it in my 10-inch, and cut away most of the excess, folding about 1/2 inch down over the edge of the DO, which protected the edge from drips and spills as I served. The paper did not inhibit the seal of the lid or the performance of the oven at all. When clean up time came, I just folded the liner onto itself and tossed it away no hassle to remove the last of the food. I could have even tossed it into the fire. There was some condensation between the liner and the DO, which I just wiped out with a sponge and warm water.

Granted, a properly seasoned/conditioned (and mine is) DO is not difficult to clean, but the liner enabled me to spend more time enjoying our friends on our camping trip, rather than cleaning the cast iron in the dark. But if your DO is not well seasoned yet (maybe a new pre-seasoned piece, straight out of the box), this will ensure your food won't stick. It is also helpful for those dishes that can impair that good, black non-stick conditioning, especially sweet, sticky, or acidic (tomato) based fare.

Coleman also makes this same product, but (at this writing) Lodge is about half the price.

Aluminum liners are also available. I chose the parchment liners over the aluminum ones for a few reasons:

* parchment liners are one-size-fits-most; aluminum liners are size-specific

* parchment is more compact than the aluminum ones. I can store all 7 remaining liners inside the DO or in

my camp box

* parchment is more eco-friendly than aluminum

* Lodge liners cost less than the aluminum ones

One thing to note that might make the aluminum ones a better choice for some applications is that the parchment does not fit flat up against the sides of the oven; it must be sort of pleated to go in picture a giant basket-type coffee filter, and you'll get the idea. The parchment would be less pleated in a larger oven; more-so in a smaller oven.

Also note that liners are not permitted in Dutch Oven cooking contests. These are for recreational cooking only.

Yes, I'm lazy. These liners make cleanup a snap, just fold them as you take them out and add to the campfire. Some moisture will pass to the oven, so don't forget to re-oil befre you put it away. The parchment will not burn under normal cooking, but if you usually burn dinner you'll have to scrub abd re-season anyway.

Plus: keeps the oven clean while camping I didn't have to do too much to keep things clean BUT minus: it burns and it got into the food I was making so I couldn't serve that and the areas it burned through I had to clean so it defeated the purpose. might try the tin ones next time.

These worked excellent! Made camp clean up so much easier! Will definitely be bringing these from now on! The fit was great. I don't know what the reviewer who said they burned was doing. We put ours in our 8qt Dutch oven and placed it right in the fire. 30-40mins later we had a perfect cowboy stew and later a perfect peach cobbler! Neither parchment liner was the least bit browned or burnt.

These work, don't get me wrong. But they're kind of annoying to deal with. Not as annoying as scrubbing out my Dutch oven in the dark while camping, but annoying. They're really crinkly and they kind of shift in the Dutch oven when you're adding ingredients. It's worth it not to have to work so hard at washing it though.

However, they aren't a great value for the price. For some reason I was expecting a truly innovative design. These are just circles of parchment paper. I could easily make them myself.

White Microwave Cooking Pots Snap On Lids Kitchen Set Reviews

I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered these pots, but they were very inexpensive, and looked promising. They arrived today, 12 days after I placed my order, and I was quite pleased and surprised to find that they are made of reasonably solid and heavy microwaveable plastic, and the sizes are perfect for storing and food reheating. The lids fit quite snugly for food storage, and they have tabs of the side to allow easy opening. With the circular ridge on each top, they can be put on upside down while in the microwave oven to allow steam venting, while helping to contain any small bursts of food.

The handles are shipped loose, to be inserted into place on each pot, and they aren't designed to be removed. They should be quite helpful in safely handing the pots when the contents are very hot. The underside of the handles isn't finished as nicely as the tops, but not a problem, especially given the price of these items.

All in all, this was the best buy of the microwave cooking items I have ordered recently. They are labeled as OK for the freezer, the dishwasher, and the microwave.

The first set we received had parts of the handles broken. We asked for a replacement set, which we did receive immediately. However, parts of the pots themselves in the replacement set were broken. If the pots can't even withstand shipping than we figured they would not last at all cooking. We're now waiting for a refund on our order.

I am very pleased with this product. I actually ordered them after mentioning it to my neighbor that I was in the market for some microwave bowls. She and I are both Amazon addicted/fans (lol)and she shared with me the bowls she found on Amazon. I found them and ordered them right away. Because she has good taste, I trusted her opinion. After ordering them, I decided to read the reviews of others bcause I knew there were Pros and Cons about the product. Cons: I tempted to fit the handle on the bowl and I didn't realize that they are sized to fit the right size bowl and accidently forced it on the wrong bowl. So I chipped piece of the bowl which supports the handle of the bowl. That didn't discourage me at all because I can still fit both handles on the bowl and it works fine. And for the price, I can't complain. I will say when putting the handles on the bowl, make sure the right handle is for the right bowl and be very careful not to force them on. I just wanted something to heat my food up in with handles that was microwave safe. Pros: They come in different sizes with lids and they are good quality for the price. And even when I'm refrigerating leftover food, they serves a good purpose, so coming out of the frige to the microwave is a plus. The size of the bowls are perfect and I love cooking my grits and oatmeal in them. I am trying to get away from using plastic and foam. This is working for me.

Honest reviews on White Microwave Cooking Pots Snap On Lids Kitchen Set

I would have rated these a five, but the smallest pot has a lid that does not fit properly. We decided to leave off the handles, having used similar pots. Because of the flat top, they are easy to stack in the refrigerator. At the same time, we purchased three similar sets, all the same. These were nice because of the difference in size.

When the pots arrived, I was missing one handle. I could have talked to a customer service rep, but... why? The handles are useless anyway. They quite frequently drop off the pots especially whenever you're holding something heavy. And when dealing with microwavable food that can be nuclear-hot, that's a recipe for disaster. (I've already had a pot full of heated water empty itself over my hand once. Fortunately no damage was done.) The lids won't stay perfectly fastened to the lip of the pots after a few uses. Other than that, they work great so far. I just heat the pots on a plastic plate and use the plate to carry the pot away.

Lodge L Series E6D50 Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven, Apple Green Reviews

List Price: $149.95
Sale Price: $102.99
Today's Bonus: 31% Off

I have always wanted a cast iron enameled dutch oven but as with many people could not justify the price of the leading French brand (even at the outlet!) I carefully researched this product & others for several months, and after much pondering, decided to order this from Amazon (try and find it at a lower price with FREE shipping, it is just NOT possible)

I have been using this for a month now & decided that I should post a review for all those other folks trying to decide if the cheaper one is "just as good" My simple answer is "YES!!!"...... I have used this for EVERY crockpot/slow cooker recipe & it has performed MUCH better than any electric slow cooker that I have ever owned! So good, that I have gotten rid of my electric slow cooker forever, this is soo much more versatile. Good cooking is all about having the right tool, well this one has been missing from my kitchen until now. I have cooked roasts, BBQ, soups, chili etc it all comes out perfect EVERY time! I have even used for making really sticky things, like rice crispy treats, easiest cleanup ever.

I will go over a few key points.....

-follow the directions for use, someone took the time to write them, let's respect the author

-yes it does take a little while to heat up BUT it retains that temp for hours & quite consistently

-let it cool completely before washing & HAND wash it, yes it is heavy but clean up really is a breeze. Soak in some warm soapy water & voila!

-you can use this stove top or oven

-beautiful handle on top is VERY functional & easy to grip

-side handle are wide & easy to grip as well

-maybe only "complaint" would be MAKE more colors to compete with the"other brand"

If you are "on the fence" about buying a "cheaper" enameled cast iron dutch oven, don't hesitate ANY longer, get this one & you won't be disappointed!

No I can't afford the expensive dutch oven I might have wanted. That's true.

However I could afford this for my birthday last year. It's now over 8 months later. I've used this wonderful thing several times.

I've confronted it with gentle care and accidental neglect. It's held up to all my use admirably.

First of all... the color is pretty true to the picture. It's beautiful. A mix of lime-green and olive-green to create, apparently, a bright, glorious apple-green color.

Mine arrived with a few minor flaws which I documented with photos in case it got worse over time. These were essentially cosmetic but could be potential weak spots for chipping later.

This thing is heavy as all quality dutch ovens are going to be... but I can lift it adequately, even filled with many pounds of meat and vegetables.

I find this bakes things beautifully. For whatever reason there is a bit of sticking when I use it on my stove top, I always use it on the correct heat settings but I do cook with less oil than the average cook probably does. It has never once caused an issue though.

I love how easily it goes from stove to oven. I love how huge it is. It holds a lot of food. The lid is snug and secure. The handle I thought was beautiful but was nervous about how it would be to hold such a curvy thin handle. I found it to be surprisingly comfortable. Only once when I was in a rush was it even mildly difficult to hold.

This is a really great product and I'd recommend it to anyone. I did a lot of reviewing and extensive product comparison before I purchased this Lodge L Series Enamel 6 Qt Dutch Oven and I found that this had the best ratio of price, enamel layers, quality workmanship and customer service. I did write Lodge before I ordered this and all of my questions were answered. I read through the Care Info before using this and I'm glad I did. I now only use wooden and soft silicon utensils with this and do not scratch it. This precious thing is washed and dried lovingly by hand and is a lovely bright bit of Green on my shelf. I have to say... if I had a million dollars I might just buy Lodge again.

Before I purchased this, when contacting customer service, I discussed a review about a customer having issues returning a faulty or damaged Lodge product that was purchased from Amazon.com and they assured me that they were VERY willing and able to accept those kinds of returns if there was an issue. I feel confident that if I had a problem, Lodge would do what it takes to make sure I'm satisfied.

If you want this product to last and last... take care of it because your children could easily be using this dutch oven long after you're gone from this Earth.

Honest reviews on Lodge L Series E6D50 Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven, Apple Green

I am not going to go into detail of all the pros and cons of this pan. I think they are well listed by the other reviewers however, if you are looking for this pan and wondering why the price has jumped drastically, it is because Lodge has temporarily discontinued the "L" Series (enameled cast iron) and the "Signature" Series (cast iron with stainless accents). You will not find these again till they re-introduce them with new look and design tentatively late 2013. So if you love the signature series buy them while you can or wait till they come back. I personally dont recommend the "L" series over the "Color" series which is not being discontinued but if you really wanted an "L" series get it while you can. (EXCEPTION: the apple pots are not being discontinued)

I'm so disappointed in this dutch oven. I received it as a wedding gift, love the green color, and use it about once a week. Despite my careful care (handwash only), after two years it has several one inch chips to the outside green enamel on the bottom. This was usable (despite the fact it was starting to rust) until a one inch piece of enamel chipped off on the inside cooking surface with flaking edges. This dutch oven isn't even that much of a bargain at over $100 dollars. Spend a little more and buy a better pot, this one will not last.

Review of Lodge P12SG3 12 in. Pro Logic Square Griddle

Customer Ratings:

I ordered this griddle to replace my Teflon one trying to replace all my teflon cookware piece by piece. I'm VERY happy with it. It came pre-seasoned and ready to use, and I've used it a dozen times already; for pancakes, for quesadillas and most recently, for grilled cheese sandwiches. It does take some "getting used to". It is very heavy for one. And it takes a while to pre-heat, because you don't want to heat it up too fast. I usually start it out on low heat (around 3 or 4 on my electric range). I pre-heat for about 5 minutes. This way, the heat gets evenly distributed. If you start cooking too soon, yes, it will be unevenly heated. Once you bring it up to heat, you need to watch it to make sure it doesn't get too hot. I leave it on 3 or 4, closer to 3 for pancakes, closer to 4 for grilled cheese and it has cooked everything perfectly. Cleans up like a professional non-stick item and is tough, tough, tough. I use my steel pizza cutter to cut through quesadillas right on the griddle before serving them something you definitely CAN'T do on Teflon!

Admittedly, a few drawbacks the weight, the long time to pre-heat. But once you get used to it, you will love it just like I do.

I have a collection of Lodge pans in the kitchen "tool box" so it was a no brainer that getting this griddle would be an exciting addition. It showed up in perfect shape and was even pre-seasoned. I was sure that cooking would be a snap but was quickly very disappointed. After mixing up some delicious home made pancakes, I quickly ruined the first pan full by the pan burning the ones in the middle and under cooking all the others. We use a state of the art G.E. gas stove with very good ratings. The burners all are very even and heat perfectly. After shifting the griddle around to other burners, there was no change. This problem usually stems from poor materials and inconsistent construction. For any other griddle, I would take it in stride but for a Lodge product, this was surprising and unexpected. For comparison purposes, I put on the large skillet and cooked up a perfect set of pancakes. I've never had such an experience and couldn't believe it! This shouldn't stop you from buying their skillets but I can't believe the handling of this griddle. Very disappointing. Very unexpected.

I wanted to love this griddle because I have other Lodge pans and the size is great. That said, even with preheating, this griddle does not heat evenly the center gets much hotter than the corner areas. For pancakes, I rotate them just to have some even browning. A disappointment.

Honest reviews on Lodge P12SG3 12 in. Pro Logic Square Griddle

Okay, it's a square griddle. And it's Lodge Logic.

Both of which are good things it's bulletproof, pre-seasoned, and nothing sticks to it. I've got plenty of Lodge Logic cookware and love the stuff.

However, like most griddles, it's significantly hotter in the center than at the corners, at least on an electric range. Making a consistent batch of, say, hash browns, is possible only with attention... just like any other griddle. I'd really hoped for a thicker bottom with enough thermal mass to give more even heating over the entire surface.

That said, I like to use it in the oven unheated for garlic bread and mini-pizzas to keep the crust from browning before the cheese, and pre-heated for fries and such to minimize/eliminate the need for flipping them exquisite browning, no oil required. In these applications, this pan surpasses anything else available.

For most things on top of the stove, I'd be more inclined to use my 12" round Lodge Logic skillet.

If I had to pick *one*, I'd choose the 12" round skillet over this griddle... but if you really want a griddle, this one still works better than ordinary non-stick and does some amazing work in the oven.

I thought this would perform like the Lodge skillets that get glowing remarks but this is a griddle which to me makes a difference.

Positive:

Sits flat on gas range (doesnt rock) and it has a smooth cooking surface (no bumps that need grinding)

Negatives:

Food sticks to the surface even though I only use it to cook bacon over low heat. I have to use a spatula and scrape under the bacon in order to flip it over which tears the bacon and makes a mess. And yes I always season the pad with oil after cleaning it.

It doesnt heat evenly, even after 1/2 hour on low to medium heat. The middle gets hot, the sides and corners stay much cooler, so the bacon gets burnt in the middle but is still fatty on the ends.

I wanted a flat cooking area of 12"x12". The entire surface area with the lip is 12x12 but the flat cooking area is only 10x10. Not technically wrong but something you should be aware of

I invested in this set almost 4 years ago. I had this set for less then 2 years when I noticed that some pans were showing signs of peeling. I never washed the pans in the dish washer and I only own bamboo and plastic utensils so I knew the peeling was not from my neglect. I called the Calphalon customer service number and was told I would need to ship the entire set back (at my own expense). I was told it would take 6-8 weeks before I would be notified whether or not the cookware was going to be covered under the warranty. If the cookware was not going to be covered I would be responsible for return shipping on the cookware set. NOT the kind of customer service I would expect from a company as well known as Calphaon. I have purchased cheaper cookware at a big box store and had it last longer then 2-4 years. I will have to replace this cookware and will not be doing it with any products in the Calphalon line.

We purchased this set from another venue.

When you first open the box and see the new set you are thrilled. Especially if your old set that you just replaced was horrible.

BUT after you have had it a while you start to realize that owning this set of cookware requires a LOT of effort on your part to keep it looking nice.

The bottoms darken easily and need constant attention to make them look good.

On our particular set, the largest saucepan interior was "bubbled". Well....we are NOT everyday cooks in this house and it only took a few months for the interior finish to begin chipping off the pan.

We had to go out and buy all new utensils and special scrubbers etc. to clean these pans. Most things we had in our drawer just didn't work well with this set. Stick a metal fork in it once and IT'S DONE!

Remember....NO dishwashers, NO metal utensils, NO harsh chemicals, NO abrasive scrubbers, NO cooking spray, NO stacking of pans, NO contact with other surfaces or the exterior WILL scratch!

In short....these pans take your full attention but when you buy anything worth having, you are willing to expend the extra energy and time to take good care of it.

If it weren't for the interior surface chips, I would have to give this set an "ALMOST PERFECT" score!!!!!

When I bought this set 3 years ago, it cost me about $300. I thought I was making a long term "investment". I was super careful with them, as was my husband. We never stacked the pots, we cleaned then with cloth, we used wooden spoons and plastic utensils in them. The small sauce pot is still doing ok, and the stock pot is still working out great (I must admit, we use these two pots infrequently). But the other pots and pans are all just about shot. The non-stick coating on the large skillet just started popping off in tiny shreds one day, all in the food. And once that breach was made, it was all over for that pot. Large chunks started chipping. My guess is that it got "too hot" when cooking... i hear a rumor that you are not supposed to cook on Hi with these pans, though I didn't read that anywhere when i bought them. The large sauce pot's non-stick coating didn't pop off like that, it just started to kind of dissolve away. Who knows how much of it we ended up eating. And now I read on the net that even the fumes of this non-stick stuff are toxic. Anyhow, we are tossing them after 3 years and switching to cast iron. Pretty short lived, if you ask me, but at least the price has gone down.

I gave this as an early Christmas gift for my wife. She absolutely had to have a set of non-stick cookware. She loves them.

*Pros

Sharp Looking Anodized Aluminum Finish, Solid Feeling, Comfortable Silicone/Steel Handles, Made of Thick Solid Aluminum, Heats much quicker then Stainless Steel. Cleanup is a Breeze, Good Weight sits firmly on the stove when empty). Great Value, Amazon/Calphalon even threw in a free 12" "bonus everyday pan" separate from the set.

*Cons

Anodized Aluminum doesn't like your silverware nor does the non-stick. Many things you have to remember not to do. No Metal Objects, Handwash only, No Stacking, No Green Scrub Pads, No Cooking Spray, That is if you want them to last a while. Also if you have a stainless steel sink, I wouldn't allow them to touch that unless you don't care about the appearance of the black anodized aluminum. Or if you do, you could polish them with the alum polish they sell every once in a while.

Overall my wife and I are both very pleased with this set. Even though it has all the drawbacks associated with a non-stick set and then some, we've managed to find that the clean up, speed of cooking, and Looks outweigh the negatives. Gave it five stars because it works like it should.

I am doing a diet where I have to measure everything I eat, and that makes it impossible to cook for 2 people in one pan.

It is a great size and the hard anodized finish is great. Only wish it had come with a lid.....

This divided skillet is very handy especially for eggs, bacon, sausage, or anything you are cooking that needs to be kept seperate. It heats evenly, cleans easily

I've had this pot for about a month. It was recommended by a German friend and a Christmas gift. It's quite different than any other cookware I've used. It heats very evenly both horizontally and vertically. I've had to adjust some recipes, for instance my pinto beans cooked 5 to 10 minutes faster than usual. The size is quite wonderful as well. It is great for browning chicken as well as for making soups. I tend to cook one big dish for multiple nights or for a houseful of people. This is perfect for that.

The surface is very easy to clean but different. It's not like teflon where things just fall off. Things stick, like in a non-stick pan, so great for making gravy etc. But then when it comes to cleaning up, it's a simple wipe.

I gave it a four because you have to learn to use it . Maybe that means I should give me a four:)

I would definately purchase more of these if I had the money.

Kenmore 3 Quart Stainless Steel Non-stick Covered Saute Pan Reviews

Customer Ratings:

My pan is fine and is good quality non stick steel, but the lid was not glass as pictured. So we were a bit disappointed and ended up having to buy a separate glass lid which works great. Just wish it had been described with the solid steel lid it actually came with.

This is the only stainless steel 3-way set I could find. It's a lasagna pan, broiler pan and roasting pan. It takes so much less room in my kitchen to have just one set. I also love that it is stainless steel because we are staying away from non-stick due to it's unhealthy attributes. Great product.

This is a good sturdy pan and great for baking or broiling. Love it. The price is worth it. Some pans are so expensive; this one is excellent for the price. Broiling works nicely!

Product and custom service is perfect as usually at AMAZON.

Packaging was nicely done and delivery was about due time. We return it because it was manufacture defect, but we bought it again in a local store.

We gratefully appreciate it. Thanks.
