This knife is the only knife I use. It feels good in the hand and it cuts, dices and chops without effort. Be careful because it is very sharp, which takes some getting use to.

Reviews of T-fal A113SC84 Family Cooking Nonstick Interior and Experior Oven

This is an awesome and functional set for a family, and my last set (identical to this one except for the lids) has lasted more than 8 years.

I recently picked up a few new T-fal pieces and really like the new glass lids that are included with this one. Maybe I'm a nosy cook, but being able to see inside is a huge advantage.

The pans are are practical sizes, and the set gives you almost everything you need for a kitchen. The one pan this set is missing is a Saute or Chicken pan, but those are hard to find I had to buy mine separately. However, until I found one (T-fal, of course), I used the deeper pot.

The key to using T-fal is to make sure you never heat it on anything other than a medium flame. A higher temperature will cause the T-fal to burn and you will slowly erode its ability to be nonstick. Also, if you use a dishwasher, you will need to season it again after using it a few times. The dishwashing soap will also cause your exterior to lose its gloss, although it won't impact the nonstick nature.

Also, while it is possible to use metal implements on it, it can get scratched over time, so I recommend wood or plastic.

I got these as a gift for myself and I am really enjoying them. I've only had them for a month, but I use them every day for everything from making crepes and pancakes to stew and steaming broccoli. They do fine in the dishwasher. And heat up nicely on the stove (haven't tried them in the oven). I am quite enjoying this set.

Review of Le Creuset Tri-Ply Stainless Steel 3-1/2-Quart Covered Chef's Pan

I've had a handful of pieces of LeCreuset Stainless Steel Cookware for about two months, cooking roughly 19 meals per week. They're all great performers and very attractive. This line is basically All-Clad Stainless for 20% less. They are made in China, which is a sticking point for some people, but I am convinced that quality has not suffered. It's simply an incredible pan for a better price. Other reviews state that this line approaches or equals All-Clad Stainless, and surpasses Calphalon Stainless.

These pans are fully clad, meaning the aluminum core extends up the sides; it's not only in the bottom. They are incredibly responsive on my gas stovetop. I actually thought they were too fast when I first got them, but now it's just another quality I appreciate. They heat quickly and extremely evenly. You often use a lower heat to achieve the same results.

The handles are comfortable, a good length, and rarely get too hot (obviously, they get hot during oven use). They are made to fit through the handles of the lids, which is a convenient storing option. And incidentally, the lids are great, since they're stainless, too, instead of glass. This means no crud build-up around the edge, and they seal great. The rolled edge truly does make pours a no-drip affair. The pan is balanced and light, but with enough heft to feel substantial and well-made.

It has an excellent lifetime warranty. Thankfully I haven't had to use that, but I did use it with a Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron 15-3/4-Inch Oval Fish Skillet, Flame, and was very pleased. (It was a lengthy process at nearly a month, but given that I got a brand new replacement for a $200 pan that was 4 years old, it seemed quite generous.)

This pan in particular has a wide surface area and a deep bowl. It's easy to maneuver tools in it (I'd avoid metal utensils), and the sloped side means this pan is essentially a saucier, sauté pan, wok, and small saucepan all in one. I've seared meats and made soup. It also braises well for small portions. One note, because of the generous sloping of the bowl, the flat cooking surface is only about 6-1/4". If you need to braise enough meat for more than two people, you'd do better with a 12" skillet. The lid also fits the Le Creuset 3-Ply Stainless-Steel 9-1/2-Inch Fry Pan.

Quality cookware like this makes a big difference if you cook frequently. It gets to temperature faster, heats evenly without burning in spots, recovers quicker and keeps its temperature easier. Since it handles well, it's more pleasant to cook with, moving easily around the kitchen, and holding still on the cooktop.

It cleans easily. I use regular dish soap most of the time. Bon Ami 04030 Bon Ami Cleaning Cake and Powder, 12-Ounce is my regular scouring powder, though Bar Keepers Friend® Cleanser & Polish: 12 OZ leaves the pan with a little extra sparkle (powder only, I Strongly dislike the liquid), which is nice since these pans are so pretty. Le Creuset makes a Le Creuset 12-Ounce Stainless Steel Cleaner, but I haven't yet tried it.

I love the LC Stainless cookware I have, and am looking forward to getting a little more.

This pan is exactly what I wanted for frying bacon. I was tired of trying to fit bacon strips in a round pan! Deep enough for the grease, too. It also "grills" burgers or chicken breasts nicely. Great for making French toast or pancakes---4 at a time fits perfect. I'm very pleased with this purchase. Nice looking, too.

This very heavy enameled cast iron dutch oven is of perfect quality, heats very evenly on stove top or in oven making casseroles or stews. Like it better than the Le Creuset because of the black enamel interior that won't show staining and discoloration that is inevitable with the white interior of Le Creuset. The dimple on the interior functions as explained, handles are easier to hold.

At this point, there is nothing Le Creuset makes that I do not want and nothing in my kitchen that I won't replace with Le Creuset. This falls squarely in line with the rest. Going from a stainless steel stock pot to enameled for my jambalaya, green chili, beans, or whatever I need to simmer slow and long has been great.

I love cast iron skillets and pans, so my opinion may be a little biased. I like the "gill" because it is perfect for meat and veggies that you want the grill marks on. The #8 lid from the 10 1/2 inch pots fits perfectly and the Lodge brand is high quality as always. Cast iron is not only healthy, they last a life time, are super easy to clean and heat evenly. Very happy with the purchase.

I grill steaks, fish, and bacons using this pan. It pairs wonderfully with a press if you want your bacon flat. The drain pout is good for dumping excess oil/grease from the pan. the grill will leave marks when searing the outside of a steak. Grilling will also leave food bits stuck between grill lines, too.

Here's how you can clean it easily:

After grilling, i stir fry sliced onion and mushrooms (i pick a box with smaller size and wash but not cut them) using the left over grease. After onions and mushrooms are nicely browned and soft, the pan will be clear of any gunk. What's left is just a wipe using paper towel and the pan is good to go for the next run.

Try it, stir fry something that will yield juice after your grilling. You will never have to scrap the pan again.

This is my goto grill pan in my kitchen. I use this for almost any meat I cook. Its a little rough to get used to cleaning cast iron as opposed to a normal pan. However this cooks my food thoroughly and well and is my most used cooking pan in my house. I was especially pleased with the price compared to the other cast iron pans out there. I have had no issues and use this regularly and often.

Honest reviews on Lodge L8GP3 Grill Pan, 10.25-inch

I have just gone back to cast iron after many years of stupid cookware of all types. This grill pan requires very little heat once heated. Do not over heat and it will heat and broil evenly. No cold spots. Cast iron cookware was great in the 60,s and better in 2012. Wash with water, lite soap and a round brush, rinse, dry completely and oil, rub off excess.

Chinook Ridgeline 5 Piece Stainless Steel Solo Mess Kit Reviews

Chinook Ridgeline 5 Piece Stainless Steel Solo Mess Kit
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars
Buy Now
Overall a very nice stainless steel mess kit. The unit is nicely made and well constructed with the exception of the frying pan handle which I'll cover in a minute. The cover for the boiling pot fits nicely and very snugly, forming a good seal. The cup is exactly what it appears to be, a cheap plastic cup but hey, it works just fine. The frying pan and the plate are very nice and the the copper coating on the bottom of the boiling pot and frying pan seems very even and nicely applied. All the pieces "nest" together very well and are kept together by the frying pan handle which swings over the packed kit and snaps into place. The kit comes in a nice nylon type bag with a draw string chord that holds it very securely. I only have 2 complaints about the kit and this is why I only gave it 4 stars. 1st.... the frying pan handle is spot welded onto the side of the pan with 2 tiny spot welds and it's not a very sturdy attachment. It will work fine for a light load of food in the pan, eggs & bacon and that sort of thing, but I would be concerned about it failing if you really loaded up the pan with cooked food and tried to lift the pan. My older aluminum kit has a handle that is attached with a wing nut and it's as sturdy and you could ever want and is capable of lifting the frying pan with a heavy load of food in it,, this kits handle is clearly not designed to lift the pan with any significant amount of weight in it. I'll just make sure I transfer my food from the frying pan to the plate and not attempt to lift the pan with it loaded with food. 2nd complaint deals again with the frying pan handle which is also used to lock the stored kit together. It folds over the compacted kit nicely and snaps down to keep the kit compacted but I had hoped it would really snap down solidly, which it doesn't. It's clicks into position and does hold the kit together but it can easily be accidentally popped open. However, the very nice nylon storage bag holds the kit very securely so this is not a big issue to me at all so I guess my only "real" complaint about the kit is that the frying pan handle really needs to be attached a lot more securely than it currently is. All in all I'm very happy with the kit and it should work very well for my needs.

The spot weld for the handle (on the pan) is a little on the flimsy side. Fix that with a hole screw and bolt then your good to go.

I am very happy with this pan. It's practically non-stick if treated properly. It cooks evenly, heats quickly and is large enough for stir fry. I highly recommend this especially for the price. It's also very light for a cast iron pan. The handle is also great as it's the only cast iron I have that where the handle doesn't get too hot to handle.

I've had a ExcelSteel fry pan for over 2 years. These are a great alternative to traditional cast iron cookware. They weight about 50% less. I find them to be the best answer for safe, high temp frying. Many of the poor reviews here seem to be lack of experience with cast iron. Yes, you need to season the pan. Yes, you need to clean it after use or it will rust in the sink. Yes, it is not true non-stick at low temperatures. But, like a good, seasoned, cast iron pan, this fried better than anything I have found. AND its one of the most safe fry pans on the market. The latest gov't reports on Teflon and related non-stick cookware are disturbing. With very little proper maintenance this pan will last a lifetime.

Best Deals for ExcelSteel 12 Inch super lightweight cast iron frypan

We bought a 12 super lightweight cast iron fry pan a few weeks ago. I was trying to get away from coated non-stick pans. I weighed the pan and it was about the same weight as my 12" Cuisinart non-stick pan. That is the good part. On the down side, the center of the pan is higher than the edges. If you put some oil in the pan, the oil forms a 1 1/2" wide ring around the center but it is not too deep. Even that is not so bad, the real bad part is that the center gets hot, and the edges are not nearly as hot (this area is about 1 1/2", the same width as the low spot). We cooked some bacon strips that were cut in half, so they were about 4 1/2" long. They were arranged so that some were in the middle of the pan, and some around the edge. The bacon in the middle cooked fairly rapidly, the ones on the edge did not cook well. We had to constantly move the edge bacon to the middle. The size of the hot spot was about the same as the burner diameter, so it appears that the heat does not travel well beyond the center. We have had no problem with the "black coating" coming off, but have only used the pan a few times. Each time only the center heated. Would not recommend this pan!

Honest reviews on ExcelSteel 12 Inch super lightweight cast iron frypan

I owned a cast-iron skillet years ago, and never could get it properly seasoned. That, coupled with the weight, meant it was destined for the trash heap. After a long time of wanting a replacement, I finally purchased this one, and couldn't be happier. I was worried about the advertised "light weight," thinking it might not be proper cast iron, but don't worry...it is. It comes pre-seasoned, and from the first use, it has been perfectly non-stick and REALLY easy to clean. It is light, also, which is great. It cleans very easily with hot water and brush, and all I do is rub a little vegetable oil in the pan with a paper towel, and then store it away. Couldn't be easier, and works great. Highly recommend it.

Weight is 1/2 of traditional cast iron pan. If the price is the same, it is wonderful. I go through the same process like any other cast iron cookware-seasoning. Hope this pan will least forever too. The only thing is handle made of hallow stainless steel but solid metal.
