I ordered this pan, thinking it'd be perfect for melting chocolate, but this pan can't be used on glass or ceramic stovetops. Just be aware of that limitation before you order!

Amazon needs to be more descriptive of this product. It says right on the label not to use on a glass cooktop, no where is this mentioned in Amazon's description of the product. It looks like a nice pan, but it needs to go back. Lots of people are using glasstop ranges, these days. Amazon, please update your description of this product.

This is great! It was perfect for dipping cherries. Anything bigger would not have worked as well. It reminds of the roaster my mom used to have. It is the same material. I am sure to have years of use from this.

I got this for my wife as she likes her milk warm-hot for her coffee in the mornings. Well if you have ever done this you know that milk will boil over and cause a huge mess. After witnessing this 50 + times and knowing a double boiler would do the trick I finally found one reasonably priced for what we needed it for. It works perfect and have yet to have anything boil over and mess up the stove. Lightweight for sure, not for the "Williams -Sonoma" kitchen but great for the normal people in the world.

Reviews of Le Creuset 3-Ply Stainless-Steel 11-Inch Fry Pan

Customer Ratings:

This is a beautiful pan. I own and enjoy many pieces of the cast iron from Le Creuset. However, I prefer stainless steel. I was very happy when they came out with a stainless steel line by Le Creuset. This pan is a nice size for a family of four. I only gave it 4 stars because it would have been nice to have a lid. Otherwise it is a great pan.

It is a nice size but besides not having a lid, it stained, cooked bacon and it stained, cooked chicken and it is worse. Unfortunately I also bought the set, and after just steaming green beans the pot and steamer are stained. Tried to clean them with scrubby sponge then brillo. Was told to try Bartenders buddy for stainless steel but I don't want chemicals in the pan. It may not effect cooking but for new expensive pans they look awful

Hampton Forge 52-Piece Kitchen Starter Set Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Bought this for my daughter's first apartment thinking it would be a great starter set of needed kitchen items. During the first week I broke the scissor handles while cutting open a package, the peeler is minimally effective and the knives proved difficult to cut through raw meat and fresh bread. The cooking utensils are average and will work just fine, but the knives and scissors are useless. I ended up buying her another set of knives as I felt guilty that even I could not find them suitable to do the menial things they were meant to do.

I would NOT recommend this set to anyone. I would spend a bit more money and get a quality set of knives and a separate set of utensils.

This little box has a bit of everything and most of it is pretty useful. The knives are sharper than I expected them to be but still invest in a sharpener because they dull quickly. All of the spoons and spatulas are pretty strong and there is one with an angle that is perfect for pancakes. The corkscrew, ice cream scoop and the peeler are all pretty delicate. I broke all three within the first use or so. There is no bug chopping knife and the scissors did start to stick after I washed them. All that aside it would be great for someone that is just getting into cooking.

Best Deals for Hampton Forge 52-Piece Kitchen Starter Set

I was looking for a starter set when I moved into my new house a few months ago. Should have saved my money and got something worthwhile. This is super low quality. Dull knives, flimsy plastic. Definitely not something I would recommend to anyone.

Honest reviews on Hampton Forge 52-Piece Kitchen Starter Set

We bought this set while on a bit of a shopping spree to update our kitchen from hand-me-down status. We never expected top of the line from this set, but I wasn't prepared to be this disappointed. Like several others mentioned, pieces were missing. The knife block is very "shop class", though at least in my shop classes, we learned how to finish woodworking projects. And half of the steak knives will end up thrown in a drawer because there's only 6 slots in the block for them.

The knives are very cheap and are a kitchen accident waiting to happen. The blades aren't the "smooth sharp" one expects, they're jagged and rough like they've been sharpened on gravel and tear more than anything. Maybe while they are still sharp, they'll cut food, but I also expect them to scratch up my plates and mutilate my cutting boards.

Speaking of cutting boards, that is about the only thing I actually like about this set. Yes, it's tiny and flimsy and slides all over the place, but it's decent enough for when I just want to cut a few slices of tomato instead of pulling out the real cutting boards. And I suppose it's good for resting spoons on.

The measuring cups and spoons are as cheap as you can get, and they are constantly falling off the rings. I don't expect the cheese grater to actually hold up against cheese. Couldn't comment on the corkscrew since we only got half of one and we didn't get a can opener at all. The Ice Cream Scoop is also pretty flimsy, but I suppose it could still be handy for scooping cookie dough or some other soft item.

The absolute worst of the worst in this set is all the plastic cooking utensils. They are terribly flimsy and the ladle actually scares me as I feel it bend under the pressure of soup. But that is not what gets it one star. It's the horrible taste and smell that it has.

Everything, and I mean -everythingthat touches these utensils comes away with a nasty smell and taste. No matter how much we scrub and clean them, the smell and taste won't die.

I made ravioli last night and used the spoon to stir the sauce. Just sticking the spoon in to stir the sauce, probably about 30 seconds exposure total, was enough to taint the whole batch. I also used the same spoon to scoop out some barely lukewarm steamed veggies and they also ended up tasting and smelling like the spoon. I mentioned soup earlier, and yes, that was also tainted by just limited exposure to these utensils. I'm so glad I kept my other cooking utensils because for all the effort I put into making nice food, I don't want it coming out tasting like you're licking a tire.

All in all, this set is a waste of money, and in the end, kitchen space. The cheap single pieces you find lining the aisles of the grocery store are far superior to what this set has to offer. There are simply no saving graces to this set.

I purchased these expecting that they would not be the top of the line because of the price, but I was expecting better than what I got. The knife block wasn't even treated and still had rough spots in the wood, plus it was dented badly when we received it. The cookie sheets were also very flimsy. One of these came bent as well. The little cutting board was also very cheap and flimsy. I would not recommend this to anyone who wants decent utensils in their kitchen, because these are crappy. Needless to say, I printed the return label within an hour of receiving the box in the mail....

Buy Kaiser Bakeware Patisserie Cake Stencils, 10-Piece Set

Customer Ratings:

I don't like to bake, but a few times a year, when I feel the romance meter in my marriage is dropping, I pull out all the stops and open a cake mix from the grocery store. I simply add the proper ingredients and bake up a "love cake". My wife is a very romantic person, so the shape or taste of the cake doesn't matter, so she says. "It's just the thought!", she squeals. (Lucky for Me). But, when I saw these cake stencils, I thought my troubles were over. Now, I could jazz up my pathetic gift by sprinkling sugar or cocoa over the cake through the stencil. That is,if I could get them out of the box without shredding! Popping the stencils out by hand was a total failure and after 4 hours in my garage "shop", using any specialized tools I could get my hands on, the project, as well as the designs were scrapped. The plastic is cheap and the stencils are immpossible to open without tearing. As far as reuse, not with the blood drops still remaining from the paper cuts I received during the "easy preparation". The designs are amateurish and this is one time my wife's love of childish crafts would lose out to her question of, "You didn't pay for these did you"? I'll still give her my silly little gifts of love, but at least I won't have to apologize for someone else's artwork, artwork I paid [money] for! Besides, I think she likes my little scribbles and thinks they are kind of cute. Bruce Hand

Buy Pomaireware Clay Individual Frog Baking Dish, 12 Ounce

Customer Ratings:

Foodies will really like this product. It allows you to cook while still maintaining some fun and whimsy.

Caveat: you need to follow the care instructions for Pomaireware. The temperatures, washing instructions and so forth are important to keep from cracking. This is a rather high maintenance cooking vessel, so if you aren't interested in investing the time and care, don't buy it.

Case in point: the first one of these I received, despite great packaging, was broken. It was replaced immediately and no problems since, but I got a good idea of the degree of fragility of clay.

But don't be scared off! Just follow the care directions and all will be well!

Best Deals for Old Dutch International Copper Clad Stainless Steel Hammered

I read the somewhat negative comments and find they are absolutely true. Lids aren't tight, and the next largest is sort of wonky.

On the upside they are an attractive addition to my kitchen. I'm only storing coffee filters, tea bags and wrapped candies so nothing is going to be compromised by not being air tight (don't even try to pick it up by its lid).

In looking around the internet for hours trying to find a set of 4 canisters at a reasonable price and with a unique look was a harder task than expected; in other words you can do better for more money, but these aren't all bad.

UPDATE: Well they said they're coated so they won't tarnish, but I've found that's not the case. It's been about 6 months and they look to have pitting or spots on them. I haven't tried cleaning them yet and probable won't in case it makes it worse. Not too keen on it, but I guess I don't mind the distressed look (hopefully they'll even out) But if you expect them to gleam for some time, I don't think I'd recommend these.

I am very pleased with the quality of these canisters, and they look great on the kitchen countertop.

If you are looking for a simple waiter's corkscrew that will last you a year or two, there are probably cheaper options.

Discount All-Clad Stainless 8-Inch Fry Pan

Customer Ratings:

After getting the 10-inch version of this pan, I found a great deal on the 8-inch pan and picked it up for smaller jobs in the kitchen. This was a great decision.

8 inches *is* small for a lot of cooking and this shouldn't be your primary fry pan but it is great for doing smaller jobs on the side or for cooking up things for one or two people. I use this guy for eggs, meat and more. The pan heats really evenly and feels great in my hand. The handle does a great job of dispersing heat and staying cool, too. And, though it doesn't come with a lid, the medium lid from the All Clad pots fit it well.

When things do stick, I don't worry about attacking it and scratching off the surface. I can use a scraper, sponge, or scouring pad without any problems. Metal can be used but it is more likely to scratch. And it is safe in the dishwasher although I recommend handwashing as much as possible.

Some cooking tips I learned with this type of pan: Use a lower heat, not because you have to (like with non-stick), but because it heats so evenly, you often don't need that higher temperature. Also when you throw something in, whether you are using butter, oil, a spray, or nothing, let it sit and cook a bit before you try to move it around. Hamburger, for example, will adhere to the pan at first and if you try stirring it up right away, small pieces will be stuck and are more likely to burn. Rather, wait until it has a minute or two to cook on that side. The parts that adhere will cook, separate and lift away from the pan so you can stir it easier. And when you are done, if there is any food stuck to the pan, put some water in it and let it boil for a few minutes. This will help lift it off and make cleaning easier.

Again, a great pan, a great brand, and definitely worth the money since it will last you a lifetime with the warranty they give you.

This small frypan is my main item. I cook for myself only (usually) and if anyone out there wants to try out the All-Clad line of cookware, this is the one to start with. Once you do, you, as I, will want to expand your collection of this superior product. You can get messy with it; you can make a mistake & have the heat too high, you can even leave it in the sink uncleaned for a day or two.....it will still clean up easily and look brand new. As stated in the ads, the handles really do stay cool; that's a nice change of pace! Not to mention the fact that the company is still in business; the lifetime guarantee really means something! Did I forget to say that this cookware is simply "beautiful?"

I bought this pan couple of weeks ago. I used it twice. I am really impressed with it. I thought it would be too hard to clean. I WAS WRONG. It's easy to clean especially if you use oil or butter (I never used Al-Clad fry pan without oil so I have no idea how does it without oil). I wash it right after done cooking.

I noticed that it does not heat fast, but food stay hot for long time after cooking (in the pan). When I decided to buy All-Clad frying pan I was thinking of buying non-stick one. Then I changed my mind after reading some reviews about All-clad non-stick surface. I said: Why to pay so much for non-stick when it's easy to scratch like any other non-stick. Great buy. Am glad I bought it.

The best part about this whisk is that all the "wires" meet at one middle point in the bottom So a traditional whisk has wire loops crossing over each other and only the outermost loop actually scrapes the surface of the pan, but because this whisk does not have loops overlapping each other, rather just all wires converging together at the center, then there are multiple contact points between the whisk and pan. This is genius because it help keep sauces from scorching. The whisk isn't just mixing or beating, it is giving a good amount of stirring/scraping action.

There are all these silicone cooking utensils out there except for a sturdy silicone/nylon whisk. I looked everywhere for a black whisk with a comfortable handle, but only found metal whisks or expensive bright colored ones. Well, here it is! Good size of head and is sturdier than most as the individual loops are connected together at the top of the head. This will allow it to keep its shape and strength in thicker liquids/sauces, etc. Long enough handle to be able to use inside of pots and pans. Great price and worth every penny.

I received this as part of a set from my husband, who knew I'd been drooling over the Le Creuset lineup for years now. If you're like me and can't visualize 3 1/2 quarts, the pot is about 8 1/2" in diameter and just under 4" deep. I use this all the time and couldn't be happier food cooks evenly and stays plenty hot enough for second helpings, and it all cleans up with soap and water. The handles on the sides do get hot so be careful with those. The color on mine is a little brighter than I'd expected but the gradation is really pretty. Overall, this is a fantastic piece that should last approximately forever and I love it.
