24 hour Cooking Event Down South......

forrestwolf — Sat, 01 Nov 2014 21:04:04 GMT

I see that they are having a 24 hour cooking event down South, and I see that Robert Irvine has joined in as a new chef down there........It appears that all of their chefs are going to be on with their goods......Anyone have plans to watch?????

I'm not much a fan of hsn, but I'll check out some of the goods. One thing there that makes it easy to see everything for an all-day event is that they will only show six or eight things and then just re-feature those few things all day long.

I am curious how they are going to do this with their newer chef base.....BUT do agree, that they do hawk the same items over and over, but wonder with a new captain at the ships helm, if things are going to be any different.......

(It's OK to say HSN on these forums).

I might catch some, but not Robert Irvine. Not a fan of his.

I do see where they are going to have a special host by the name of Raul de Molina from Univision, but I do not know him..........

I have started looking and have purchased 4 items. They have more flex pays, free shipping or reduced s/h. I love the drain buster or whatever it was called. They had the large and small clothes flip and fold sold together which was more expensive purchased individually. The rug spot cleaner was a good price. I purchased a 4 shelf unit for storage cheaper than on line..... this package arrived today and hope to put it together next week. I looked at the cooking event items. I may consider the cooker similar to the nuwave made by another company that is known for pressure cookers both stove top and digital. I just put my CE oval 5 quart pressure cooker in the trash because I could not find a replacement regulator knob...... I loved that PC but it only lasted 18 months before the knob broke. I wish I could find another oval PC!

I do not understand why the powers that be notice that soooooooo many people here have asked for another 8 qt oval pressure, like the one they used to sell........ I am still cooking in mine after 14 + years, and cringe every time I use it, afraid that this will be the day it dies.......I prefer an oval, over a round......I had a Big Boss, and it died, but am expecting a replacement at any time.....but the company says it is out of stock due to demand, but I will get a brand new one with no shipping mine back, or having to cut my cord and send it in.........I bought it from Amazon.........

I flipped over and the TS (11/02) is NuWave Pro 1800W Next-Generation Induction Cook Station with Carrying Case - $99.95 or 5X$19.95 with Free S&H. Item # 375-750.

I decided to order this as I have a couple of trips planned next year, by car, and figured I could take this with me and cook in my hotel room. Save me some money. Have never done induction cooking before but this looks good. I have some Wolfgang Puck cookware that will work with this so I don't have to purchase any additional cookware.

Actually, they so far have not repeated hardly any items, and I saw some items that I have never seen presented...... Now, I did see a clip where Robert Irvine said he developed a product line to help you be a better cook, but he has just taken older products that have been out for a looooong while and put his name on it.......

I ordered the Nuwave in red.. I am wondering if I should have gotten the white as my ceramic stove is Almond..would you all have gotten the white?

I also got the 9 1/2" pan to go with. Last time he was on I did get the small saucepan and it is very nice, has some weight, but not extremely heavy.

They have the NuWave - a newer version today for $99.95. I'm thinking about purchasing it. Does anyone use the NuWave and if so, what are your opinions?

"They have the NuWave - a newer version today for $99.95. I'm thinking about purchasing it. Does anyone use the NuWave and if so, what are your opinions?"

KatieB

Yes Katie I have the Nuwave - the first version and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. The Today's Special, the Nuwave PIC Pro, is the third generation and will be even better. I do all my cooking on the Nuwave PIC except pasta. The only reason I don't use it for pasta is because my pasta pot is not induction-ready. Besides regular pots and pans I have several stovetop pressure cookers and I use the Nuwave PIC with all of them as well.

I can't recommend the Nuwave PIC highly enough. There are other induction burners for sale, but none have the incredible temperature control of the Nuwave PICs - as little as 100 degrees for keeping food warm for hours and hours if desired up to 575 for searing steaks or other food you want to sear. This is the best price for this Nuwave PIC anywhere. With holiday returns, you'll have 3 months to try it out before needing to return it if you don't like it, but I think you're going to love it. If I were you, I'd give it a try.
