Shoddy quality of the 13 piece floral lace set - Page 4

I am not thrilled with the NON STICK like you say. I have baked several pans of banana or other nut breads and have greased the pans and they still don't come out without a piece stuck in the pan. I just used a lid it to bake cookies and guess what? They stuck!

It is keeping me from ordering more temptations. Plus if I were to order, I don't need all the baskets, I find them a problem to store and your plastic lids are NOT air tight, by any means.

You have great ideas, but, these are problems for your product.

I was happy with my cranberry set. The plastic lids were hard to put on and one lid didn't fit at all. I contacted the company but never heard from them.

I checked out shopnbc for the first time on Monday and searched for stoneware... there is a set on there that looks an awful lot like the temptations in style just a different pattern but horrific looking. I watched the presentation and amazingly it was almost the same script that Tara uses right down to showing the old tin bakeware. This stuff had wire racks also but was about half the price of what Tara is hocking on QVC. I think this is her stuff too under another name . Has anyone else seen this?

Actually, I like the ShopHQ pattern better than the Temp-tations one. I've never liked Old World. I do agree that it looks like the same manufacturer makes the Cook's Tradition sets as the Temp-tations. I wouldn't be surprised, as the style of the pieces is identical, just a different pattern.

I just looked at the ShopHQ website and the stoneware items are definitely very, very similar to TT. I didn't care for the pattern, but the items are styled the same and with the rack, etc. A lot on clearance and you can get single pieces instead of huge sets. I don't even know if I get that channel, but I have never purchased anything from them. Appears they are made the same place as TT.

I visited ShopHQ for the first time today. Kind of shocked. The Cook's Tradition. Almost duplicates of Temptations and Le Creuset at a fraction of the cost. The shipping and handling is either the same or less than QVC and almost all of the pieces are on 6 or less easy pay options.

I actually like the blue floral Cook's Tradition pattern much better than Temptations.
