Pans for My Daughter |
|
|
|
Hi! My daughter is getting married and I want to buy her some pots and pans that will last for as long as humanly possible but also resist food sticking. Any recommendations? I have some old cast iron pans and some newer teflon pans (cheap). What's worked well for you guys? I don't mind spending money as long as I know they are good. Thanks! Cat (Proud Mom) from Min.

Hi, I was wondering,if you ever found the Taste of Home Series by Wearever pans? If so please let me know where I can buy them. Thanks

Instead of "sticking" to teflon pans, you can try the German brand Woll Cookware. Since I bought one in Germany 2 years ago, I was very happy with my titanium coated frying pan that performs with first rate cooking results, and it's also PFOA free. I can say that this is one of the best pans available. Heavy duty titanium based coating, practicaly can be used without oil, easy handling and cleaning. I couldn't find them in the US, maybe someone knows were they can be found? more information can be found at http://www.woll-cookware.com or http://www.woll-cookware.co.il

I have studied almost all cookware and trust me Saladmaster is the way to go. I know people who have had their sets 40+ years with no problems. Yes, there is a lifetime warranty and I know of one woman in particular who after 40years needed new handles and the company sent her a BRAND NEW SET no questions asked!! I have a set and I would not even think of using anything else. Go to www.saladmaster.com and have someone come cook for you it is a lot of fun. And the best part is there is no pressure or obligation. Unbelievable company. STAY AWAY from aluminum, and non-stick.

If your daughter likes to cook -- go with saladmaster. I grew up with it. went to college forgot about it. Had a set of farberware that didn't last 3 years. Got complete set of Calphalon that is dinged, discolored and on its way out only 10 years later and that stuff is expensive!!! I just rememberd saladmaster!!!!! My mom's is still beautiful after more than 30 years!!!!

Check http://www.overstock.com. They seem to have the best deals. I'm not sure what types of pots and pans you want to get. Aluminum sounds good (since they won't be eating Teflon "pepper" after a few months after getting them.) However, I must say, the best pans I have in this house are the cast iron skillets, which are now a few decades old and still holding up. No matter what type of set you get her, throw in a cast iron skillet---they last, and they make the best tasting cakes and cornbread.

Revere Ware is awesome. It is stainless steel with the copper bottoms. I have had mine for over 20 years. My grandmother passed away a year and a half ago. I gave her set of Revere Ware to my sister. It was in perfect shape, and I know that her set was at least 50 years old. It is not non-stick, but I use cooking spray. I never use nonstick cookware. It is not too safe. Much hapiness to the kids.

My mother bought a set of Saladmaster pots and pans many years ago and they are still around. The same man she bought them from years ago she ran into a few years ago and he hooked her up on getting some handles replaced for free. I am thinking they have lifetime guarantees, but not certain.

In my lifetime I have gone through a lot of different cookware ... Farberware, T-Fal, etal. I have found the best for me is the WearEver brand (they have a Taste of Home series that is great). They are heavy-duty and the non-stick doesn't scratch. One piece of advice that you should give your daughter and son-in-law is ALWAYS wash cookware by hand. They will remain looking brand new for years if proper treatment is applied. Best of luck to the bride and groom.

I've had a set of Belgique for years and they have served me well. They have a set at Macy's on sale this weekend. http://www.macys.com/catalog/produc ... 17&CategoryID=9482&LinkType=Homepage If you miss them this weekend, they have them on sale quite often.
They are easy to clean, rarely stick and look good after years of use. They also have the copper core in the bottom and are stainless steel. -Susan

I recommend stainless steel with copper core. My DH "suprised" me with a set that he bought at Costco. approx 199.00 for the complete set of 3 different sizes of saute pans and 3 sizes of sauce pans, a large soup/stock pot, and large deep frying pan, not to mention a steamer basket. I've been using them LOTS over the past 6 months and they still look like brand-new. I thought items might stick without a "coating (like teflon)", but they don't. My Congratulations to the Bride to be and her sweetheart.

My grandmother died more than twenty years ago and I'm still using her old copper-bottomed RevereWare. I don't do anything to clean the bottoms, although my mother's set is bright and shiny....I'm a horrible cook and I used to burn everything. But the pans have survived well and I don't burn stuff much anymore. But good cookware can be so expensive. Try to get it at yard sales. Sometimes the old stuff is the best stuff. New RevereWare has awful plastic handles and mine has some kind of really solid wood that doesn't burn or melt. I don't like non-stick cookware as it just scratches and falls apart too easily even with TLC.

Congratulations on your daughter's marriage! My own mother bought me a set of Analon pots. I've only used T-fal and inexpensive pots in the past, and I found these were absolutely wonderful! They are very heavy, heat evenly, and nothing sticks. Good luck! Barb

I purchased my set of pots and pans from a door-to-door salesman, way back in 1969. I do not remember what they cost but they are still working great. Would not trade them for the world. They are Saladmaster, Stainless Steel 18-8 Tri-Clad; Dallas, Texas. They are well worth any price as mine have been used daily, in the oven and on the stovetop. I have never had a speck of trouble. Good luck finding them if you choose to do so. Nayno

At all 3 of my daughters wedding showers, one of my gifts to them was a complete set of FARBERWARE pots & pans. My mom also had a set & I have a set. I own & operate a bed & breakfast & have 3 different size electric coffee pots made by FARBERWARE. In addition to that, I have a large coffee urn that makes up to 50 cups by FARBERWARE. They are not inexpensive but I feel are decently priced & it you can watch when they are on sale that will be an additional bonus.
Happy cooking to your daughter.

Someone else suggested QVC and it's a great idea. I own the complete Cook's Essentials line and I cook every day with them - they are wonderful. I treated my T-Fal poorly by putting it in the dishwasher, so now I hand wash these and they are like new. I'm sure you can look at them on the QVC website. Bye for now, Kat, also in MN

I love to cook so when I got married I wanted good pots and pans.....I received Cuisinart pots and pans and they work wonderful....15 years later. Also I've added All Clad pans to my set and love them. Both are expensive and are carried by Williams and Sonoma....check their outlet stores and sales on the internet and catalog. I think the price was well worth the many years of good quality I received and my pots look great.
Congratulations on your Daughters Wedding!

I have to say "ditto" to the Farberware. When I got married many moons ago, my mother in law got me a basic Farberware Set (5 pots from large to small + 2 pans) and some accessories, like a Farberware Tea Kettle. They are, to this day, like new. I have never needed a replacement part or anything, and I am a bit hard on things :-).
I highly recommend this and it is a great gift idea. Anjeena

Cat -
I have the set that Pampered Chef sells. It's pretty expensive, but it lasts and lasts. I've been happy with every piece of it. I got mine by having a party so I could get it at half-off.

I highly recommend Farberware. I have used it for years and it is super easy to clean; even something that gets burnt on.

I bought some pans 3+ years ago and they are still in perfect condition. I bought them off QVC and it's their line of cookware. They're called: Cooks Essentials, hard anodized and have a non-stick coating. They can also be put in the oven up to 500 degrees! They have different sets available and I highly recommend them. Good luck!
