Winco Polycarbonate Scoop, 10 Ounce -- 1 each.



Great Ice scoop
This is a great scoop, i bought mine for ice, and it does exactly what its supposed to do, It scoops. it also seems well built and it should help you with all of your scooping needs.

Much larger than 10oz
I intended to use this scoop to measure roughly 10oz at a time, but this holds significantly more than a 12oz scoop I have.

Good
Compared to the metal scoop; supposedly stainless steel, that I rated on another scoop. Although this one is not made for popcorn it will do the the job and more safely that the other one.

Nordic Ware Pro Cast 11 Inch Grill Pan



Not good for ceramic-glass cooktops
When I ordered this pan, I assumed that since it was cast aluminum, the pan bottom would be flat. However, it has indentations matching the grill protrusions on the pan's cooking surface. So it probably is not suitable for use on ceramic-glass type cooktops. The manufacturers of these cooktops usually recommend that the bottom of a pan should be perfectly flat when used on these type of cooktops. An irregular shaped bottom may create very distinct hot and cool spots causing irregular cooking and possibly damage to the pan or the cooktop.

Best Grill Pan!!
This is the absolute best grill pan. We use this pan to grill anything from chicken, beef to grilled cheese. The quality of the Nordic Ware grill pan is phenomenal. The grill pan grills meat perfectly while maintaining its juices and flavor. The non-stick coating makes it very easy to clean. This grill pan is perfect for anytime of year. I would HIGHLY recommend this product. It does not disappoint!!

Great Construction!
I truly believe I will have this pan for life, it is so well constructed and made in America. It has the perfect height of the grooves for grilling indoors. I grill chicken and vegetables and other things in it. I can't get enough of it. I live in Upstate NY where it gets very cold, so I love having the option of being able to grill indoors during the cold winter months! Can't say enough great things.

Fagor "Elite" Pressure Cooker Set



Speed, meet Versatility
Buy a pressure cooker if you think you'll use it at least once a week.

Buy this Fagor Elite pressure cooker set and you'll use it a lot more often. At home on ANY kind of range (smooth-top or coil electric, gas, induction), the two pots and their interchangeable lids add versatility to speed, and that equals more bang for your cookware buck (pardon the bad pun). The glass lid turns the 8-quart pot into a handy stockpot or pasta boiler. Put the lid on the 4-quart pan and, voila, it becomes that extra saucepan you never seem to have when you really, really need one. When dinner's ready but you're not (pressure cookers are rocket-fast, you know), replace the pressure lid with the glass lid to keep it warm without overcooking or drying out.

The stainless steel basket isn't big enough to hold a pound of long dry pasta, despite the photo, but it's the vessel of choice for shorter cuts like penne and rotelle, and for blanching filled pastas like ravioli and...

A great set, and a good value
I own this set, and have used it a lot. I like the flexibility of having a large and small pressure cooker, so I can cook big amounts, such as soups or stews, or small amounts, such as risotto, just using the appropriate size base. It works well, heats up quickly, and releases steam quickly. Only complaint is that I would like to have some sort of raised basket and flat trivet rather than the pasta insert and wire trivet.

I bought this one as a gift for someone, I'm not sure whether or not they've used it yet, but I have 2 of these (different sizes) and I think they're great. They're easy to use although I'm sure that all pressure cookers are a little bit scary at first. I get great results every time I cook with them, and they're easy to clean.

Overall, I'd say that this item is great for people who are adventurous cooks who don't always have lots of time.

Jiminox 10 Pcs Cookware Set - 5-ply with 18/10 Stainless Steel



Totally Pleased
This set is not only beautiful, it's sturdily made and well-performing! Though I haven't owned it for long, I'm completely satisfied with it's functionality. I find it heats evenly, and 2 of the lids fit the omelette pans as well. It's stated to be dishwasher safe but I haven't tried that, preferring to hand-wash. They're just so beautiful!:) Anybody looking to acquire a decent stainless steel set would be hard-pressed to find a better value in my opinion!

Stainless Steel Cookware Set
Quick delivery. Excellent cookware. Exceptional quality. Cooks evenly, cleans easily, and seller service great!

not completely satisfied
Pros: Able to make omlet on saute pan. thats good.
looked good. light weight.
Cons: Made in China, not made in Germany. I was under impression that these are made in germany
Total weight is advertised as 34 lbs,at the time of my purchase. But actual box weight is 25 lbs( 25 lbs for only inside box not entire shipment weight)
I doubt if they are 5 ply , they are not thick. ( when i compare them to calphalon or analon 5ply). i havenot used all the pieces yet, hopefully its worth the price
instead of 8'' , 9 '' pans they should have designed 8'', 12'' pans. same with 3,4 qt sauce pans
I am a keeping them. though i am disappointed with wrong information on this product.

Marcus Tri-Ply Stainless-Steel 2-Quart Covered Sauce Pan



Solid pot made in USA
This pot is well made, made in the US, and good for ceramic stovetops. It is on the heavy side for its size, but that is because it has an aluminum core that extends up the sides of the pot as well. We like the fact that it is dishwasher safe. Also, the lid is made here, unlike the lid from our All-Clad fry pan, where only the pan is made here but the lid is made in China.

It's alright.
It's a solid saucepan, but there are a few things that keep me from loving it.

For one thing, the rivets are set fairly low, so that the food is almost always touching them. For another, I don't think the helper handle helps much at all. There's not really anything heavy enough that would require the extra handle, and it gets really hot from being so close to the element. As well, the long handle part of it is too hefty for the size of the pan. I'd say that it probably makes up more than half of the weight, so that it feels almost unbalanced when empty on the stove.

I generally don't use this unless my other saucepans are unavailable.

Corning Ware Visions Visionware Amber Glass Dutch Oven/ Stock Pot - 3.5 L



Great for cooking beans or soup!
I prefer a non-toxic stock pots for cooking which is why I purchased this glass cookware.

For cooking beans or cooking soup, this piece has been great.

It cleans up nicely when you soak it and scrub it out with a plastic scrubber. I then place it in the dishwasher for a thorough cleaning.

I have used Visionware for about 22 years, including this dutch oven.

The pot has never failed or exploded on me.

However, there have been some complaints about exploding Visionware (Google is your friend).

Some incidents can be attributed to thermal shock such as running cool water in a hot pot, or placing the hot item on a cool surface, or putting the cookware on a heat source with no water in it.

Also, if you have chipped, cracked, or scratched cookware, it is recommended that you discard it. Be sure to check the tiny notches on the bottom of the pot. If there are any cracks emanating from the notches, I would advise...
