I received it as a Christmas gift from a friend when I mentioned my worries about the teflon. It is a wonderful skillet that I use every day. It is important to use PAM or some kind of spray to prevent the food to stick to it and to wash and dry it after each use. Low to medium heat to prevent burn marks. If it gets any yellow mark (hopefully you do not burn it), you may use "Brillo" softly to remove any stain (I have done this and it did not cause any damage). You may also use 1/2 vinegar 1/2 water (for a few lets say about 10 minutes). All that works for me. My skillet looks almost like new after constant ever day use for more than 3 months. I love it!!!!!

Bought this during the holidays, actually very beautiful (I suppose an odd thing to say about a kitchen utensil, but it makes your kitchen look that much more designer, lol ;) ).

Works just as the ad says, easy to clean too.

Ok, here's the tip, if you need a great fitting cover that's just as shiny, has glass viewing too, & a steam vent, do this:

RSVP UNIV-G Universal Lid w/Glass Insert, by Endurance. Sold on Amazon. I have it too, & it fits perfect.

Hint: Use olive oil spray or liquid for easy non-stick cooking. I swear by stainless steel--I don't use teflon due to the release of toxins during cooking.

Honest reviews on Cuisinart Contour Stainless Open Skillet with Helper Handle

We decided to try a couple of individual pieces before committing to a complete set. This skillet was the first to arrive and we tried it out at lunchtime by frying an egg for a fried egg sandwich. I had read reviews of the complete sets where people had complained about eggs sticking. I can't imagine what they were doing. They must have put an egg in a dry, hot pan. We put a little butter in the cold pan and heated it up before cracking the egg. The egg rolled around in the pan like it was on ball bearings. No sticking. This pan only requires moderate heat. It works great and looks great. I can't wait for the big skillet to arrive. I'm sure that I can convince my wife to spring for a complete set of this fine cookware.

This replaces a Tefal equivalent where the non-stick coating was starting to go.

This pan has a very solid base, and it works well on our gas range in that even at high, there were no hot spots allowing for even cooking, and the pan heats quickly too.

We were worried about straight stainless as opposed to non-stick, and we were surprised that the food doesn't attach that easily to the surface.

Cleaning with a plastic non-abrasive pad worked well, no soaking necessary, that may change after the pan gets more wear, but so far, very pleased.

The handle does not get hot or warm, even on our biggest burner at max heat after 15 minutes searing we can hold the handle without getting burned.

The sides are not the thickest metal but the pan does not flex and the build quality we found excellent compared to our other pans.

This product looks identical to the Emerill line except for the branding Cuisinard.

We're sold on this particular build quality, the next time we need a pan or a pot, we'll look for the same product line.

Cheap Simplex Heritage Gas Tea Kettle, Chrome

Simplex Heritage Gas Tea Kettle, Chrome
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
I've had this kettle for about 7 years and I felt compelled to give it my" thumbs up". I moved recently and had to leave my kettle behind. I am looking for a temporary replacement but none of the kettles I've looked at seemed to have all of the qualities I look for: design, whistle, cool handle, quick boil, no-fuss whistle removal, and capacity. Well, this kettle has it all (it's not modern, but the design is simple and timeless)! The whistle is in the spout, so there's nothing to remove when you pour ( this doesn't affect the water flow). Boils water super-fast! The handle is always cool (wood). Love it! Of course, it is a bit pricey, but it will last you a lifetime.

Bought this to replace our Chantal Classic 1 4/5qt tea kettle. First of all, it's absolutely beautiful from every angle. A really gorgeous kettle, classic curves, stunning!!! A true timelessness, like having the Queen Mother in your kitchen, boiling up a spot of tea. We've gotten compliments from everyone, from Al the plumber to the newly married Google exec (who was a bit wistful at having recently chosen the Chantal).

Next point of comparison, function: the kettle has a turned wooden handle and can therefore be picked up off the boil without a potholder, a difference that we appreciated after the Chantal. Also the whistle is built into the lid, and will never need to be replaced, which is why we got rid of the Chantal (it had a gorgeous train-like harmonic whistle, but the reed-fitting costs $20+ to replace, and stopped working after a few months). After using it whistle-less for a period of time we decided to go with a replacement that would save us money by using less energy rather than spending money buying replacement parts. Also, the Simplex is a breeze to keep shiny and clean, buffs clean with a dry or damp cloth, cleans up like brand-new even after sullen teenagers have splatter-fried foods on the neighboring burner. By comparison, the Chantal charcoal grey enamel required it's own bullet-point on my to-do list when needing to be cleaned. In addition this kettle holds a generous amount of water, enough to brew up four giant mugs of tea or fill a large french coffee press with water left over for a cup or two of hot cocoa for the kids.

Finally, energy efficiency. Before tossing the Chantal into the Good Will box I conducted a test to see if the coils on the bottom of the new kettle really did make a difference: The Simplex boiled the same amount of water on the same flame setting in exactly 3/4th's of the time; 6 minutes vs. 8 minutes for the Chantal.

Oh, and by the way, even the teenagers give the new kettle two sullen thumbs up. I haven't told them yet that "Good Will Box" is really a euphemism for "stuff you get to take when you leave for college."

I am extremely pleased with this tea kettle. I have had many whistling tea kettles over my lifetime, but I definitely like this one the best of all. Aesthetically, it is a beautiful tea kettle and has an old fashioned charm. It feels very solid and not flimsy at all. In the past, I have had tea kettles that once they whistle and you go to pour the hot water into your cup or tea pot, they sputter all over the place -sometimes even splashing your hands a bit! This tea kettle pours very nicely once it whistles. It has been very satisfying all around -I'm pleased.

Honest reviews on Simplex Heritage Gas Tea Kettle, Chrome

The Simplex Chrome Whistling Tea Kettle is the fastes boiling kettle that I have ever found. It has a large capacity and is, to my eye, extremly attractive. The whistle is loud enough to be heard through out the house. I believe that the all copper version is a little faster to come to a boil, but as copper has to be cleaned constantly to look good, I'd rather wait the extra few moments to achieve a boil for the "wash and ware" chrome model. This extremly well made kettle has been in constant use in my home for 18 years. It has paid for it's self may times over with it's quick to boil design and when the time comes to replace this old friend I will pay what ever price I have to replace it with another Simplex Chrome Whistling Gas Stove Tea Kettle.

I just got the first run of the 2012 back-in-production simplex kettles, and its quite beautiful out of the box. Honestly, I want to love this kettle but something is not right. My family had the traditional copper simplex kettle as a kid and I immediately sensed this new make (coated with chrome) feels lighter. It also sounds like a toddler learning to whistle, lid tight down, even with a little more heat than you should use according to the directions. I remember the original piping loud and clear, and this is not close. Nothing I see explicitly says it is "Made in England," a selling point, either on the kettle or it's packaging. Given the hassle and wait getting this through Amazon, I'm not sure I dislike it enough to return it, but for the money I am not thrilled. Sorry.

The non-stick surface of this pan is great and it looks like the construction is excellent too. The only problem I have is that the pan warps very slightly when heated which makes it rock on a flat top electric stove. It would be perfect for a gas stove or a stove with electric coils, but not a glass/ceramic flat top. I sent the first pan back because of this and the second one seemed better, but still warps enough to rock slightly. I use it at the lowest heat I can to try to minimize this effect. Too bad I have two flat top stoves.

This cookware does the job providing even heat throughout your cooking process. The surface is super slick but gives you a nice foundation for searing, braising and pan frying and lends itself to a variety of sauce making applications. A simply pan reduction sauce is a snap and cleanup is a breeze, with paper towel no less. The nicest features are the stay cool recycled stainless steel handle mirrored with the ability to finish your meal preparation in the oven or broiler.

The deep rich browning created by this pan is uniform and flavorful. Don't let the competition sway you, cooking till black is not the new brown! So, if you are going green, get this cookware, it's certainly your next step! If you wish to look at one up close and feel the quality for yourself then head on over to your nearest Le Gourmet Chef outlet store, you will not be disappointed.

I recently prepared Chicken Marsala utilizing this pan and a Simply Calphalon Saute Pan. Both pans performed well but the golden brown searing and coloration was more developed in the Cuisinart pan. I also was able to adjust the gas at a lower flame under the Cuisinart pan. The Calphalon pan was searing at 8 out of 10 on the cook-top range whereas the Cuisinart pan was searing at 4 out of 10. The fond left on the pan from the searing in the Cuisinart pan was also more developed and added to the Marsala recipe quite nicely.

I will post a comment and update the link when I test the new Calphalon Unison searing pan against the Cuisinart GreenGourmet Saute pan.

I bought this pan after owning the Cuisinart GreenGourmet 12 inch skillet (Hard Anodized). I used to use stainless steel only and was very apprehensive about any non-stick surface, especially after the news of health concerns linked to Tephlon coated pans. I received my first Cuisinart GreenGourmet pan from a friend who wanted to convert me to a non-stick pan user. After learning about the safety of hard-anodized and ceramica, I became comfortable using this pan. It very quickly became my favorie pan. I added this 5.5 Quart Saute pan to my collection and it functions as my work horse for those larger quantity recipies such as chili. The pan is not only BEAUTIFUL, it is quite versatile. I have used it for a variety of applications from stove, to high broiler, to flambe. It does it all. It is oven and broiler safe. The ceramica finish is easy to clean and is heats up quickly and evenly. As per the instructions, I have never had to turn the stove past medium/high, even to boil water in this pan ... yes boil water. The cooking area is great for making noodles, especially lasagna noodles without having to break them to fit into the pot. This pan also comes with a lid that can be used on the Cuisinart 12-inch Skillet (which does not come with a lid).

Amazon offers a VERY good price for the GreenGourmet line. The GreenGourmet line is hard to find (Target, Walmart don't carry them). Bed Bath and Beyond charges full price, and even with a coupon you are not getting it for the everyday price offered by Amazon. A real bargain.

Thanks for reading :-)

Honest reviews on Cuisinart GG33-30H GreenGourmet Hard-Anodized Nonstick 5-1/2-Quart

As with most Cuisinart products, this pan is outstanding. When compared to products of similar quality (AllClad, etc) this pan is quite affordable, and somewhat better to use. Its heat distribution is superb & uses lower temperatures, its non-stick surface is excellent & durable, its stovetop-to-oven feature is as good as any ordinary pan BETTER actually, since it is a non-stick. The cover fits quite well and seals in moisture & heat. Its rounded lip allows pouring more neatly & more quickly than other high end lines a very welcomed feature, as is the helper handle which not all pans of this size have. As an extremely active amateur chef and avid foodie, I cook a GREAT deal and the Cuisinart GreenGourmet line this pan in particular has become the principal cooking implement in our kitchen. The additional health safety features are a plus which must not be overlooked.

I had been looking all over for the perfect French/Dutch Oven then I found it HERE on Amazon! I didn't even know that Cuisinart made one until I found it here! AND for a fraction of the cost of what I WAS going to get (the Le Cruiset brand) I love this one and have used it at least once a week since it arrived! I love that you can braise the meat, right in the same pan (like they do on the cooking shows!) and pop it in the oven to slow cook just like that! The clean up is so easy too! I was originally wanting a cobalt blue but now that I have the Cardinal Red I LOVE IT! One of my best purchases at SUCH an awesome price! The 5 1/2 quart oval is perfect for doing pot roast for a family of 4-6 with plenty of room for carrots, onions and potatoes my roasts have never tasted better! And with the Prime shipping, I got it shipped for FREE (and it's a heavy pot!!)

I love this pan! I have been wanting it for so long and even added it to my Wish List. I ended up buying it at Home Goods a few weeks ago for a little less than it's being offered here. I was thrilled. I had to buy it. And I'm so glad I did!

First off, I used a little butter to be able to release the cakes once baked. I used room temperature butter & a basting brush to lightly butter or grease the pan. I found this helped release the cakes once done.

The cake cups don't need to be overly filled. A little less than half filled worked best for me. I used a lemon cake for one group, then pound cake for the next. Both worked well.

Everyone loved the little cakes! I served them with a little confectioner's sugar and they were a big hit.

Definitely glad I bought this pan as clean up was a breeze. I let the pan soak in warm soapy water, then rinsed it clean. All the little nooks and crannies were easily cleaned of any cake residue.

I love Nordic Ware. They always make a strong sturdy baking pan in lots of fun shapes. Proudly made in the USA!!! Great pan to invest in as this is one to be held onto for quite some time.

I love these! Made cornbread, poppyseed cake, and red velvet in these recently. Great shapes! My tip? DON'T FLOUR THE PAN! I used butter or shortening only so you don't get flour "mold" on the designs. The first time I tried flouring the pan the design was less pretty and I had to frost it to cover the floured edges. The cakes came out easy without the flour and looked lovely.

We have had it a little over six months and have used it perhaps once or twice a week successfully. It now shows the three L's. The instructions say that the temperature is out of range when you see that. In my case it shows the L's when I open it and shows the temperature when I close it making it unusable. I wrote to Taylor and got no response...so much for customer service. I am sending it to Taylor under the one year warranty and will update this when I get a result, good or bad.

As a young man, I was trying to perfect my grilling ways and this thermometer seemed like it has it all, and it does. The thermometer's temp settings help out a lot to be able to get the perfect level of doneness for everything from steaks to chicken. However, the thermometer's accuracy is not always perfect and takes a few seconds to get to the right temp. In whole, if you are looking for a thermometer that can even teach a novice the difference between rare and medium, then buy.

This is the best pan I've ever used for one of my favorite breakfasts, ham and egg sandwiches. I like to cook my eggs using as little oil as possible. Ham and eggs are a tough combo in that eggs don't do well on stainless steel, while frying meat without oil tends to kill Teflon pans quickly. This pan does a great job, you can cook the ham nice and crispy without ruining the pan and just use a squirt of cooking spray to fry the egg. The pan just wipes out with a paper towel. It doesn't matter if you burn the ham a little, this pan can take it and still wipe clean with a paper towel. If it can cook ham and eggs like this, it means everything else is easy. I've only used it a couple of dozen times to cook various items but it seems that it will last much longer than the average Teflon pan. I liked it so much, I looked for more marble coated pans. Unfortunately they are not all created equally. I ended up ordering a Valencia pan and it was not nearly the same quality. Look for the Korean made stuff from KW or ACE (seems to be the same company). The Valencia pan was from China. I just sent back the Valencia omelet, which was cheaper, and paid a little extra for the KW/Ace 8 inch omelet pan.

This tureen and lid survived an extended tumble down a long, steep, brick driveway, and emerged in perfect condition. Surely a lower quality piece whose ears and pedestal were not 'built in' to the main bowl would not have made it.

Most footed bowls seem unstable or awkward to me, but the heft of the pedestal keeps this one balanced so it seems to be glued to the table, rather than waiting for an opportunity to topple.

The detailing is precise. True to Pillivuyt's claims, these can definitely mingle on the table with fine china as long as your china is nice enough to stand with this functional porcelain; some of my vintage pieces are definitively out shined.

Had an old inexpensive Braun juicer for many years that finally need to be replaced and found out they don't make them any more.

First purchased a stainless steel Breville. It looked nice, but for some reason did not have enough motor power which caused it to stall on juicing and returned it. Was very dissapointed.

Then went cheaper and bought a Tribest based on reviews at Amazon. It worked for about 1 year a part broke on it. Also, it was not dishwasher safe. Finally, purchased this Omega. First unit delivered had a slightly bent shaft and had a very annoying squeak. I decided for this much money it should work correctly. Returned the unit and requested a replacement.(transaction went smoothly).

Second unit was delivered and shaft appeared straight when it rotated. There was a still a slight squeak, but not as bad as first unit. I put small bit silicone lube used for my treadmill on the cent shaft near black bushing and it was eventually silenced. There is a slight amount of gear noise that I wish I could lubricate, but it is not bad.

The main thing is that it has plenty of power to quickly juice citrus, has several sizes of juicer heads to handle lemons or oranges (have not tried grapefruit. Not sure if largest head is large enough). Next, the parts are dishwasher safe and it is a very easy cleanup. This appears to be made well and hope to get years of service out of it. Also, the wife is happy with the new citrus juicer.

I ordered this to replace and upgrade from the Waring Pro I have had for almost 10 years of hard use. I use a Vita Mix and a Champion Juicer, and wanted a solid hardworking citrus juicer to sit with them on my kitchen island. From the pictures of the Omega C-10W, it looks like a well designed product, I especially like that it is tall, has a "splash guard" and three sizes of reamers.

When I opened the box and set it out, I was immediately surprised how LIGHT WEIGHT the juicer is. The base of the unit had come open in shipping , and the motor mount posts had broken. The motor unit was loose, with poorly attached wiring. The whole base is cheap light weight plastic. The reamers are thin plastic as well. For almost $200I was expecting a solidly built Juicer. It is impossible to imagine something this poorly designed would ever hold up to "Professional" use, what ever that is!

This juicer keeps overheating and shutting down after small quantities of juice. When it was working it was quiet and efficient.

I bought this to juice oranges. I juice the orange and run the pulp through my omega juicer to get as much juice as possible. I am happy with the purchase.
