HSN late Friday night and a lot on Sat. Thank God a good cooking show. So tired of coffee makers and Kitchen aid and Vitamix. I want to see new products.

Volfgang (intentional) is amusing, and can be informative. I have his 'everyday pan' which is enameled cast iron and though heavy, does a good job.

I think he sells quality goods. I saw his pressure oven at Kohl's the other day. One thing I don't have in my kitchen hahahhahahahahah I would be proud to buy it, but, I don't really need it what with my many pressure cookers, just bought a butterball turkey fryer, and my husband bought me the masterbuilt smoker in red. I got the Nuwave oven too. Think I got it covered. Never did buy the ninja though. mmmmmmmmmm LOL

I got Wolfgang's indoor griddle/grill I like it a lot. if my Oster bread machine goes dead I would buy his bread machine. His pressure cookers are to big for just 2 people. Good price though. HSN, has a monster pressure cooker for folks with large families. I'll be watching Sat. to see what all he brings with him. He likes to get frisky some time. LOL

DH & I love watching Wolfgang. His shows are great for college-type drinking games: take a drink every time he says "veg-e-TAH-ble", "Oliver and Alexander" and when he wipes his nose on his towel (I know that grosses many out, but I'm not eating this food, it cracks me up.)

I've bought many of his products (Versacooker, cookware, SS bowls, pie maker, rice cooker and digitial scale) and the only one we had problems with was the scale. I LOVE his 19 piece cookware set.

[howwhatwhen]

I have plenty of his items too and like them all...our least used is the pie maker because we just suc'k at making pies, lol I love the SS pots and pans and have plenty but thinking about getting the new bistro elite set today because they can be used on an induction cooktop and none of my current pots and pans are compatible. I have the original bistro line that I purchased well over 10+ years ago and though they do not look brand spanking new they certainly don't look over a decade old. They still have plenty of use left to them (we use cameo stainless steel cleanser after nearly every use) but I'd love to have the updated set, decisions, decisions.

I was curious about the set of stainless steel mixing bowls thar was on just before midnight. I have two sets if mixing bowls, but not anything stainless. Hmmmm...???

Denise-How do you like the SS bowls? I'm imagining I could use them for just about Anything???? TIA

I ordered a knife set for my ex-boyfriend and they were great. Ordered the same set for myslef after we broke up and they were not nearly as good. Not nearly as sharp and needed ti be sharpened constantly before I could use them. My sister loves the set of pans that I ordered years ago. Not sure those pans get the same positive feedback as the older set she got back when. I don't think his newer products are as good as the products he showed years ago based on our experience.

[howwhatwhen]

I have the SS bowls but an order version. Mine have a clear white tinted lids. I think the newer sets have leak proof lids (or something like that) anyway I use my bowls all the time for cake and cookie batter (I can NOT for the life of me make a decent pie, lol). I also use them to marinade meats or when I am chopping items but not yet ready to cook them, I just pop on the lid and into the refrigerator they go.

Oh and they have (or at least had) great customer service. In 2008, I decided to try to clean my pots and pans with a much to harsh cleanser and damaged the rivets on the inside of the pans. I called WP CS and after explaining what I did, CS sent me new pots and pans, though I was required to provide proof of purchase. I called HSN and was sent a copy of my order which I forwarded to WP CS and I was sent replacements. I did NOT have to send the damaged pots and pans to them...they did not send new lids with them but that was ok. The harsh cleanser ate away some of the aluminum covering the rivets. I was told that although the rivets were damaged they were still usable (not harmful) however they just didn't look as nice anymore. I learned my lesson and now only use the cameo ss cleanser.
