I really like my GreenPan set that I bought from HSN back when Todd English was representing them. I've been using them for several years and have had no problems.

These look like your basic hardcoat enamel (read-cheap!) cookware to me. At least the Todd E stuff was hard anodized aluminum. That's the only way to go if you're buying aluminum cookware. The hardcoat enamel type is just thin aluminum that will get way too hot, way too easily.

Either way, I'm not on board but that's ok. There's something for everybody. If you want hardcoat enamel, cheap aluminum cookware, however, I'd find something that's going for less money. I don't know who this vendor is (assumably a chef?) but you pay more for a name that is perceived as famous I suppose. That doesn't even mention that it's probably knocked out by the tens of thousands with little quality control.

I will not purchase anything with Green Pan label on it or ceramic non-stick anymore! I spent so much money on this cookware(Green Pans from HSN-Todd English) that eventually everything ended up sticking. It either went to Good Will or I threw it in the garbage. They have not perfected this cookware. So people listen to me, DO NOT BUY IT! It is such a rip off. I went back to using my stainless steel and cast iron cookware. At least I know this cookware will last me a lifetime. All the ceramic coating cookware is all throw away. Cash in the trash!

My green pans are great.......I use cast iron, made in USA.

I briefly saw part of the presentation with Carolyn.....she stated that she had bought the red. Every time I see her selling she is either buying or already owns the item. She must be swimming in stuff ( spelled C-R-A-P)

Are they related to Debbie Meyer's green bags and boxes?

She has a food show on TV. She is a country/western singer and the wife if Garth Brooks. (I know that has nothing to do with a cookware line.) I like the colors offered, but not buying.

I have Lorena Garcia's ceramic cookware from HSN and also recently bought the two Sinply Ming pans (grill pan & open skillet). I love both of them. Have been using Lorena G's cookware for some months now and find it to be exceptional. I was skeptical about the white interior, but it has stayed perfectly white and not discolored. I have no experience with Greenpan, but wonder if it is the same as the others because of the bad reviews.

I also have Lorena's ceramic cookware set from HSN for over a year. I really like it. It is lightweight, but that is okay with me. I was steaming some vegetables this week and didn't check and was out of water--big mess in the pan. I let it soak a few minutes after it was cool and it cleaned up perfectly. The color makes me happy too I like the white interior too. I never tried the Greenpans.

I just love watching Trisha Yearwood. She is so normal and nice. No screaming-interrupting...her show on Food Network is fun to watch too! I wish her all the luck!!
