Why did you discontinue sell Cooks Essentials Cookware sets. Please bring them back.

I agree. I've been using a Cooks Essentials nonstick set for about 20 years. It's time for a new one.

I also agree!

I've been using my stainless steel CE cookware set at least 20 years too and while they're still in excellent condition, I would buy a backup set, they're that good and make a great gift for family, housewarming, wedding gift, etc.

I wasn't aware they had.......I just checked their stock and they have a couple of sets plus lots of single cooking items.

I bought a 3 piece set back yonder time and still going strong; but liking it I'm now considering adding to it.

Where did you hear CE is no more?

Q is pushing cast iron pans - have 2 of Chef "Z" and already tired of them. Donation time.............................

I have enough to stock up a few kitchens lol. Love them. What I miss also is Technique. I also have a lot of those. My son always ask for pots and pans for his friends because he knew I would never say no.

My favorites are Cooks Essentials, Wolfgang Puck (not the new ones) Technique and now Curtis Stone.

I didn't hear that it was discontinued or anything like that.. The only thing I see is that they don't show Cooks Essential cookware sets anymore. Or it they do, I haven't seen it.

No hard anodized aluminum,which used to be their strong point. Just a couple of cast iron and light weight aluminum sets. No Technique at all. Maybe they will carry Curtis Stone, like I'd hoped. And no, they shouldn't take it off of HSN, let both networks carry it.

Me too!! My set is still in pretty good shape...just one or two pans looked used. Also gave a set to DD many years ago. She just recently upgraded to another brand!

@EFRY - Welcome to the forums! In the past, QVC has offered more cookware sets from all brands in the fall than at any other time of the year, likely because that is typically when we start having big gatherings and are staying inside and cooking more. Obviously, this year we are spending more time inside than usual overall and may not have as many big gatherings, but since the Q's inventory is ordered far in advance, I'd still expect to see cookware sets starting to pop up more often in the next couple of months. I hope you find what you need soon—happy shopping...

I like this line and have used some of my Cooks Essential pans for over 20 years. I have the stainless belly shape stove top vessels, several fry pans, hard anodized casseroles, and bakeware. I have 4 of their electric pots, all sizes, and use them for soups and chili all the time. Also have an an electric round grill pan that makes the best baked apples in 10 minutes. I searched for replacement fry pans a few months ago and realized that they have really scaled back on this line. The cast iron is too heavy for me to handle. Glad I have a good selection.

No, please don't. I bought a set not that long ago and the quality was mediocre and every piece is gone now. Don't waste your moneyl

I had many pots and pans from this line and used them daily. I loved them. Later pieces were lighter and not made as well. I still have a few pieces but gave most away because my cooking for many folks is now in the past. I still have and use daily the hard anodized toaster oven pieces. Sadly those are no longer available but I still have hope that one day QVc will reintroduce those essential items.

I have a CE stainless steel set also and one piece finally wore out and I had to toss it. Would love a new set.
