SEARCHING FOR NEW COOKWARE

PJKuhnny — Tue, 10 Oct 2017 16:06:49 GMT

I am in the process of buying a new set of cookware. Recommendations on the best non-stick - non-scratch set. I have hopes of never having to purchase another set, so I don't mind spending the money for durability! Thanks!

I highly recommend Curtis Stone on the other shopping channel. I have had many top brands, but his is the best I have ever used. Look at the reviews. Very good.

Hi, @PJKuhnny. I bought a small set of Curtis Stone recently and really like it so far.

Another vote for Curtis Stone cookware! I have a smooth cookware range, and the stainless steel bottoms on his pans heat really evenly. They also work well on induction burners.

I've had my cookware for about a year, and no problems at all.

And when presenting the cookware, the HSN hosts usually mention that the Curtis Stone cookware has the highest ratings of any product sold on HSN.

my vote - Curtis Stone! I love the set I got about 8 months ago - nonstick, clean up great & best part still looks brand new!

Im hoping he has a full set TS soon. If not, I'll wait until next time he does-that's how much I ❤️ his products!!!

Without a doubt, Curtis Stone! Great non-stick and super easy clean-up.

Another vote for Curtis Stone, it's the best in every way. I recently purchase the bakeware set & it's great too. Always watch when he's on HSN, I enjoy his presentations. I started with a set of 3 frying pans with lids & they arrived beautifully boxed, I planned to keep the smallest & gift the others but that didn't happen. You won't be disappointed.

If price is not an issue, Williams Sonoma is touting a new cookware line:

"Zwilling Forte takes cookware to new heights of performance with a breakthrough in nonstick technology. The five-layer nonstick coating is exceptionally resistant to scratches and will last for years. Allowing minimal-oil cooking, each component in this set releases food easily and is compatible with metal utensils."

I'm another Curtiss Stone fan. I've had all the cookware for over a year and I love it. Non stick and cleans beautifully.

@kitcat51

oh my I did the same thing when my fry pans arrived - I only wanted to "try" the larger/smaller ones I planned to gift- after using a few weeks (med one) I tossed all my other skillets!

I gifted them to me! Love his things

I've slowly but surely been replacing all my cookware with All Clad. I didn't buy a set. I've been buying the pieces I really want and find most useful. I've been very pleased. I buy mine from William & Sonoma but only when they have their 20% off sales, which is usually a couple times a year. I always get a gift certificate for the store for just about every holiday. I don't spend it right away, it adds up. Right now I'd say I have about $500 in gift cards. Plan on using before the holidays.

I'm usually guilty of keeping something "just in case", particularly anything kitchen related. I shocked myself after trying my first Curtis Stone fry pans because my old pans were tossed without hesitation. My Curtis Stone collection continues to grow.

I just bought a 13 piece set of All-Clad non-stick (HA1 - Hard Anonized) and boy I LOVE IT.

I've had it for about a month and I've been cooking much more often because its just brought back the joy of it for me. Good cookware can do that.

I use either wood/nylon/silicone utensils and it has held up so far great.

Personally I highly recommend it because I know I'll never have to buy another set of cookware, unless of course my son wants this set when he moves out, LOL.

Curtis Stone, hands down. I have a set I got as a TS that looks new after months of use, as well as the deep and shallow multipurpose pans and several non-cookware items. I have my eye on the 3 frypan set and multi-lid as well.

Curtis Stone will have the TS on HSN on November 19, so you might want to tune in then to see if he's offering a full set. IIRC, other Curtis Stone items are often discounted in conjunction with his TS or other promotions.

Love Curtis Stone. Have a few pieces that I use every day. Got the huge 14" durapan that is the best thing ever. What I need are the sauce pans and not so much the dutch oven or fry pans--have many of those things. Another really good line is---from E#vine---- Cooks Compainion brand---have a few pieces from them that works great. Trying to get rid of my black nonstick junk. Would try stainless too.

Curtis stone all the way. Got tired of wasting money on cookware only to toss it out. Bought the small set to try. Fantastic. Ordered a larger set and threw out everything else. Nothing sticks and the cleanup is a rinse and a wipe and use again.

I just wish they would get his baking sheets back in stock. I'm going to replace my bakeware now.

He is supposed to be back in November. Can't wait.
