Joie de Vivre 50162 Mini Fry Egg Pan with Nonstick Surface Review

Joie de Vivre 50162 Mini Fry Egg Pan with Nonstick Surface
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I would have never bought this pan if I had seen the reviews here, but I bought it on an impulse at a cookware outlet and I'm so glad I did! My pan doesn't have any of the problems (hot handle, peeling nonstick) that the other reviewers here have experienced. I suspect that since those earlier reviews the pan has been redesigned by the manufacturer.
Whatever the reason, I absolutely love it! It's the only pan I've ever found that is the perfect size (4") for english muffins and orowheat sandwich thins. Honestly, I'm a rather practical person, so I generally don't buy things with little characters on them, but this pan has ended up being the most-used pan in my kitchen. It's perfect for making scrambled egg sandwiches, so I use it several times a week.
If the handle starts heating up or the nonstick peels off, I'll update this review, but in over six months of weekly use, it's performed like a little champ! And, over time, the cartoon egg on the handle has grown on me, it seems kind of shocked or amazed... perhaps because it has to watch me cook an egg!
BTW-The secret to light, fluffy scrambled eggs is to use a low heat and stir constantly. It takes a little longer, but it is so worth it.
Enjoy!
Claire

Farberware Nonstick 4-Cup Egg Poacher Review

Farberware Nonstick 4-Cup Egg Poacher
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Yech! The first time I used this poacher I had eggs that had a strange scent and taste. As one other reviewer noted, I deduced this came from the plastic cups. So I soaked and washed and soaked and washed and soaked and washed. To no avail-- my eggs STILL smell funny and taste sort of weird. I will be replacing this with something that has metal egg cups. Other than the scent and taste imparted to my eggs, this works well. I guess a food stylist might find it handy for making pretty, photograph-ready INEDIBLE eggs.

Here's a convenient way to poach eggs for brunch or a light supper. Everyone knows that egg can stick like cement to cooking vessels, but this pan is non-stick inside and outside so you can put down that scrubber and move on to more enjoyable pursuits, like reading the Sunday paper.

This is by far the best pan I own. It is an amazing size, you can cook anything in it and not have to worry about spilling over. Also I was afraid that because it is so large and I have a rather small stove (because I live in an apt) that it would not cook evenly. But I was way wrong! Even on the undersized burners this pan cooks everything evenly. And clean up could not be any easier. I would recommend this pan to anyone looking for a quality piece at a wonderful price.

T-Fal Professional Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set, Black Review

T-Fal Professional Nonstick 10-Piece Cookware Set, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the best T-fal I have yet!! This Professional set is by far thicker and heavier than any of my other T-fal. The pans are nonstick and the bottoms are stainless steel. They have heavy glass vented lids, and cushion grip handles. Even the pan handles are put on sturdier with 2 rivets as opposed to most pans that have one screw that comes lose. I would definitely buy this professional line again. I've tried many brands of cookware and I love T-fal the best. I'm hard on my cookware because I cook and bake and can continually, T-fal holds up. I buy T-fal singly and in sets to add to what I have... I love it!

T-Fal Specialty 12-Quart Nonstick Stock Pot, Black Review

T-Fal Specialty 12-Quart Nonstick Stock Pot, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We bought this to replace an old Calphalon pot which crashed to our floor and bent out of shape. The old pot was wonderful, but quite heavy and you had to hand wash it. This one retains the nonstick feature (an essential when making split pea soup), yet is much lighter. The glass lid has a vent built into it, making overflows much less likely. Lastly, the whole thing can go into the dishwasher if you want, but is easy to wash by hand, too, especially since it is lighter weight than the old pot. You can maneuver it around.
We still have another T-Fal piece that we bought over 20 years ago, and it's still going strong! That's what led us to buy this one.
The one possible negative I could even think of is that it's very tall, making it a little difficult for us folks of shorter stature to ladle out the soup. It is a 12 quart pot, though, so you have to expect the volume to come from somewhere.
Overall, a great pot! And we do a lot of cooking!!!

Crock Pot 5-Piece Tool Set Review

I received these and tried a few out over the last couple of days, and they seem pretty nice. Be aware, the tongs are kind of large, an have a wide profile and flat bottom edges. Also, though the set pictures a slotted spoon, I actually received a second spatula, the second not slotted, instead of the spoon. I'm not sure if everyone will, or if this was temporary or an error.

Fagor 8-Quart Stainless-Steel Pressure Cooker with Steamer Basket Review

Fagor 8-Quart Stainless-Steel Pressure Cooker with Steamer Basket
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use to own an electric pressure cooker, and after many scorched meals, decided to try a stove-top model. It was the best move I could have made! 18/10 stainless, surrounding aluminum on the bottom has kept every meal scorch-free. I feel completely safe using this pressure cooker. It locks easily, and the dial indicating if the pot is at pressure and if it is at high or low pressure is fool-proof. There is nothing complicated about using this pressure cooker. I just can't say enough about this pot. I have cooked professionally, and I have cooked for many years. I would not be exaggerating if I told you that this is the best-loved piece of cookware that I own. Fagor has produced an outstanding product.

Pressure cookers are gaining momentum as the new healthy, time-saving, and energy-saving way to prepare food. While not a new method, the technology has certainly been transformed over the years to be easier and safer than ever. Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel for long-lasting durability, this 8-quart pressure cooker makes it possible to save up to 70 percent of the time and energy traditionally used in cooking rice, meat, and vegetables. The cooker's lid offers a long handle made of black heat-resistant plastic for comfortable use. A safety-lock handle, visual pressure indicator, and an automatic pressure-release setting ensure the lid won't come off unintentionally. For added convenience, the cooker provides a handy basket insert, complete with legs and a loop handle--great for draining pasta or steaming vegetables. Dishwasher-safe parts make cleanup a snap, and an instruction manual and recipe book come included. Designed for use on all heat sources, the pressure cooker measures approximately 17-1/5 by 11 by 10 inches and carries a 10-year warranty.

West Bend 84966 Versatility Oval-Shaped 6-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker Review

West Bend 84966 Versatility Oval-Shaped 6-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is my fourth one of this style of a West Bend slow cooker in 20 or so years. I started with a four quart model. I wore it out after about 6 years of using it at least 4 or 5 times a week all year (I was a working mother then). I bought a second four quart, and passed it on three years ago to my son when he got married. I still have the six quart I purchased as a replacement (I have hidden it from my son so I can have a spare if I need it). I love this new electronic model best of all. I love being able to set the timer and know it will switch to warm when done. The older models did not do that. The digital age has arrived for my FAVORITE slow cooker of all time!! I have given away the oval standard slow cooker I had (not a West Bend). There aren't many dishes I haven't tried in this slow cooker. This is the best West Bend model yet. This model is pricey for a slow cooker, but I would purchase another one, if I found a good sale price.

Enjoy healthy, home-cooked meals even with a busy schedule thanks to this oval-shaped programmable slow cooker. Simply add ingredients to the unit's cooking pot, insert the pot into the electric base, and select the desired temperature setting--warm, low, or high. At the end of the programmed cooking time, the appliance automatically shifts to keep-warm mode, which means dinner can be ready and waiting after a long day at work or a busy day of weekend errands. The unit's 6-quart capacity nicely accommodates family-size meals or buffet-style gatherings, and its removable cooking pot can be used on the stove top or in the oven for added versatility. Even more, its base doubles as a warming base and a griddle--choose the "griddle" option from the control panel for making pancakes, eggs, hash browns, and other breakfast favorites. Additional highlights include automatic shut-off after 24 hours for safety and peace of mind, cool-touch handles, and a dishwasher-safe cooking pot and glass lid for easy cleanup. A recipe book comes included. Perfect for soups, casseroles, pot roasts, curries, and more, the slow cooker measures approximately 10 by 14-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches.

Can't speak to durability as of yet since we haven't had it a long while, but it is of good quality and can't be beat for versatility. Everything from hamburgers and roasts to a family serving of eggs has turned out beautifully. No problems with the lid that was mentioned in previous posts. Can't beat Amazon's service.

Still one of the best skillets I've owned. It's proven itself over and over. Cooks evenly, cleans up easily, and after being used 3-4 times every week, not a hint of wear and tear so far. Great purchase.

West Bend 84905 5-Quart Oblong-Shaped Slow Cooker Review

West Bend 84905 5-Quart Oblong-Shaped Slow Cooker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the best small appliance I have ever had. I have had it 20 years or so. I cook everything in it: pot roasts, pork roasts, stew, pulled pork, beans, etc. I have purchased about 8 of them over the years for wedding gifts, college graduation gifts, Xmas, etc.

There are two main reasons I love this so much. One is the versitility of the heat control. I hate crockpots because all you get is low and high! Give me a break, who cooks like that?? These have settings from 1-5, almost as many as a stove burner. I can brown my stew or roast on 5 then turn it down to 3 or halfway between 3 & 4 or 4 depending on how long I want to be away from the house or want it to cook. The base doubles as a griddle by itself. Takes up very little counter and storage space. The pot goes into the oven or on the stove if you need or want it to. The pot and lid go into the dishwasher, although I ususally just give a quick wash with hot soapy water and wipe off the base. The other reason I love it is it is small and lightweight. No heavy monster crockpots to handle, try to lift full of food and then try and wash!
I have the older model of this cooker that is 6 quarts. At the time I purchased it you had the choice of 4 or 6 qt size. After 20 years I need to replace it, although it still works perfectly, the teflon pot lining is scratched and the teflon coating on the base(griddle) is flaking. But after 20 years of using it 3-5 times a week, its certainly held up wonderfully. I am now purchasing two more, one for me and one as a wedding gift! My only regret is that they no longer make the 6 quart in this model, only the 5 qt. I would recommend it without question!! Enjoy!
