Hi everyone! I prior to buying Wen from QVC a year ago, I never heard of Temp-Tations. Now that I participate in the forums, I see a lot of talk about it.

For those who are unhappy with the products due to the quality but you still purchase it, why not get a refund instead of an exchange? Hit TT in the pockets and they will do something about the quality.

It seems like a lot of the people haven't used the items for the first 30 days, or at least they didn't fall apart until after that point so there is no way to get your money back. I'm pretty sure the only thing TT offers is (for a price, or ok - shipping - of course) is a replacement piece. I guess they probably figure it's better to get something than nothing and they can just use them as serving pieces or something that doesn't involve heat.

Don't be surprised if threads and replies are poofed again.

The Temptations Clearance Sale thread was poofed ....Our friend voyager was also on that thread and read my reply, and agreed with what I said, and that entire thread has vanished...sound familiar? You bet it does.

Earlier today on the Temptations sale clearance thread she had the audacity to give me her "advise" incorrectly spelled of course, as it should be advice.

Her "advise" was to tell me to let it go as far as my Temptations defect product dangerous experience I posted about on that thread.

What I found most amusing was she had the impudence to give me her "advise," unqualified non professional medical diagnosis about my elevated blood pressure, resulting from my disappointment and anger echoed in my reply, regarding temptations which is complete rubbish. My BP is within normal range for my age.

In any event none of my posts, replies or internet communications ever echoed feeling anything but shocked and highly concerned that these defects and dangerous accidents occurred, not only to myself and my guests, but to others on these Community bb's as well.

I was neither disappointed nor angry when my large casserole baker cracked in 1/2 while I was removing it from the hot oven to serve to my guests, and the 2 Temptations serving items cracked while holding refrigerated salads at different gatherings while being passed around the table to guests.

What I felt was consumer shock and relief that neither I, nor any of my guests were burned, or suffered any other injuries from what occurred with utilizing these highly defective Temptations bake ware and serving bowls.

I just did a search using Community and the word Temptations and low and behold the Temptations clearance sale thread is gone......but plenty of other threads about defects, junk ware, and the like are still there. Enough to prove the truth does prevail and will continue to prevail.

Also duly noted is shoddy workmanship, unacceptable paint jobs, and chips in items received. This all need to be addressed by the vendor, and then safeguards implemented to bring the words consumer safety, and product quality back into focus.

I told her in my reply that other members also know why our truthful posts about defective dangerous Temptations experiences are being poofed, and we did not need Einstein to know there is indeed a hidden agenda.

That hidden agenda is very evident to any QVC member who disagrees, or posts their negative Temptations experiences.

Like others many wonder with all her continuous challenging, arguing, belittling, defending, minimizing the severity, intimating we all lied about our Temptations defective product experiences and the like.....one question to date still remains unanswered by her which is " just what is her hidden stake and agenda in all of this?".

She ignores consumer safety as though what happened to our defective pieces which caused accidents does not matter at all. There is not one shred of compassion in her posted replies to anyone who had dangerous encounters with the Temptations line.

She eludes replying to us, and continues her merry way.

All she is doing by poofing, or having our threads and replies removed, is calling additional attention to herself, and also adding fuel to the fire, but evidently her ignorance is bliss.

Let her continue to belittle, humiliate, state we are liars, post personal innuendos, make ridiculous untrue assumptions, and dole out unlicensed medical diagnosis to me. The more the merrier, because she is shooting herself in the foot with her own ignorance, and is sabotaging herself by calling attention to her personal agenda time, and time again.

I always call a spade a spade, and never back down when it comes to consumer safety, because consumer safety should rise above profitability, and that is something she will never care about at all.

I also feel everyone should know the real truth of what may happen and has happened to many of us who bought and used various products from the Temptations line, and had dangerous accidents occur to ourselves and others.

The truth shall prevail, because "truth = knowledge, and knowledge = consumer purchase power.

Great post. I just contacted QVC corp. today and they promised that they would investigate the issue of posts getting poofed when they are in no violation of Community Standards. We ALL have the right to express our opinions on a product, good or bad.

This has been asked over & over again, HonnyBrown. I agree, stop buying TT and the sales will go down and the Q will move on to another brand! There are only a few posters that only come here to whine & complain about the same break/crack/craze over & over, they somehow have an emotional attachment to this product and keep coming back time & time again with nothing new to add to the OP's thread.

It makes sense that if someone cannot get their money back, they at least would like to get a replacement. Maybe they think the replacement will be OK, and that the piece that broke was just an unusual occurrence. Or, maybe they feel the company should replace their defective piece, even if they decide they will not buy more of this line.

I will say, Fiesta has a great guarantee--5 year chip replacement warranty.

A company that puts out a QUALITY product has no problem giving a decent warranty. You get what you pay for!!!! TT will give you lots and lots of pieces for what "seems" to be a great price, but is it really???? SOOO good to know that Fiesta Ware gives such an awesome warranty. I would much rather have a few pieces of great quality cookware and spend more than, a lot of throw away cookware for less.

adoreqvc -

Bravo!

As always, a wonderful, thoughtful post...you are a gem!

I hope the "powers that be" are listening.

Thanks so much terrier3 for your kind words, and reply.

As I always state "The truth shall prevail about the defective dangerous Temptations Products many of us have experienced, as well as the continuous lack of Temptations product quality, shoddy workmanship, crazing, cracking, chips, missing paint in areas, and hap hazard packaging with items arriving broken.

Thanks so much RJL-DLL 75 for your kind reply, and actions you've taken.

Now at least QVC is aware and will monitor all posts and threads and leave our replies visible if they only reflect our positive and negative experiences, without violating any policies. (Maybe now her replies will also be read in their entirety to ensure her continued nasty harassing unwarranted accusations, and replies are removed from every Temptations Products related thread).

OMG YOU are saying this?????

Whine and complain?.......Oh isn't that really rich!!!!!

How about being a concerned caring consumer who alerts and explains due to numerous dangerous and defective Temptations consumer product usages, already posted from their QVC Temptations related usage consumer experiences?????

If you had what I, and other members experienced, also happen to you, in full view of your horrified dinner guests, (and perhaps also burned yourself as well when that Temptations hot from the oven large casserole baker cracked in 1/2 in your hands then smashed to the floor in dangerous broken pieces, and smaller sharp ceramic shards, with the hot food and sauce splattered on to your clean kitchen walls, floor, and appliances.......(perhaps then you would not continue to have the audacity to state those who had these dangerous accidents come back to again post, whine, and complain!!!).

I stopped buying and trashed my vast Temptations Collections due to almost getting burned when my Temptations large casserole baker was being removed from my hot oven, and cracked in 1/2 in my hands.

When I released it from my grip it exploded crashing to my kitchen floor into large and smaller dangerous ceramic shards, while the hot food with sauce splattered on my kitchen floor, walls, and everywhere else. In addition to that dangerous defective Temptations disaster my guests on two other occasions had my Temptations serving bowls filled with cold salads and while being passed from guest to guest just crack in their hands.

I will still continue to post and mention my frightening Temptations products experiences, on all Temptations threads, to ensure everyone is aware of the dangers many of us have personally experienced when baking and using this obviously quite defective and dangerous Temptations Product Line.

Reason is every consumer should know the pro's and cons of anything they utilize which can endanger themselves, their loved ones, friends or dinner guests.

It is also public internet knowledge that these dangerous experiences have also occured to other consumers, in addition to many of us here.

The truth will continue to prevail, and as she stated we will all continue to "post, whine, and complain.....since that is also our right".

In any event as I always say....."The truth will still prevail".

As a caring human being, I always place consumer product safety, well above financial gains, and profits.
