Lock and lock

Does anyone know how I can get ahold of Chris Pryme. I have a question for her about my lock and lock. I couldn't find her on Facebook.

I don't know how to contact Chris but I see the Lock & Lock distributor has a website and Facebook page. If it was just a general question maybe they could answer it. However their website does say they can't replace any pieces sold by another company if that is what you need.

Maybe somebody here, on this board, can help you with your question. Many of us are L&L experts.

@chickenbutt

I've heard Dave say many times that Chris is an executive chef. Yet, nothing said about for who or what?

I like to research the backgrounds of the QVC vendors out of curiosity. I could find nothing on the WWW regarding the "QVC" Chris Pryme, Executive Chef. I am not a member of FB.

Do you know?

Hey Mz iMac! Chris Pryme is a chef, but I don't know about 'executive chef', as in holding that position at this particular time. Maybe once you have been an executive chef you can continue to use the title - I don't know. But I think of it as a job description, so I don't think I would call myself that if I didn't currently hold that position.

But, heck, they call Paula Deen and Rachael Ray chefs and neither of them are chefs at all. Not dogging them, but those are the facts. They were both home cooks and then they became tv personalities, cooking on tv and such. NTTAWWT, however.

She is a trained chef who, I believe, used to own a bakery shop. Pastry (non-savory) chef was her thing. I also believe she dabbled in private and event cheffing (that's not a word - sorry).

@chickenbutt

Thank you! I have only heard David comment that she is an executive chef. The other hosts & hostesses just call her a chef.

"event cheffing (that's not a word - sorry). "

It is now!

I have had the lock n lock for years and not one crack, leak or broken piece. I will not share my bowls if I go out with them for a gathering I will leave the food but my container comes home.

If you purchased it through QVC did you check with the C/S for assistance?

Like your name.

I got the set of rounds and squares ( TSV, I think). I just made the first payment on them. I sent one to work with my husband not knowing that their microwave was messed up. One side of the bowl is kind of melted looking. I was wondering if there was any way to just replace that bowl?

@biblegirl, you could call QVC and ask. But I doubt that they will break up a set. Maybe, though, they would credit you a small amount for that one bowl. They have done that for me in the past.

One suggestion for the future: I microwaved L&L once, and it did become distorted. I have never done so again and have had very few problems -- just an occasional break or something that is to be expected after a while with plastic.
