What is cookware: Definition and 200 Discussions

I have the opportunity to purchase either the 5 piece or 7 piece executive cookware set for myself using some of our wedding money. Since I will be getting it at 50% off, which should I get? I already have plans on purchasing the 12" skillet next month at 60% off. Keep in mind too that it's just...

I want the Executive Cookware Collection! What is the best way for a consultant to get them at a BIG discount?

A few years back there were some cookware comparison sheets floating around that compared our cookware to what's out there on the market. The latest one I could find was when we had the Professional Cookware. Does anyone have a more recent one? I have someone considering cookware and I'd love...

What was the warranty on these? Were these lifetime or 3 years? Want to be informed before I call HO.

I know the Professional Cookware is no longer being sold, but I am trying to get a 12" glass lid replaced for a customer. Does anyone have one? Or does anyone know if the 12" glass lid for the Executive Cookware will fit? Thanks!

I'm adding the PC Stainless cookware to the PC Executive and Circulon cookware I've been using for years. I'm quickly realizing it handles VERY differently from the non-stick I've been using my whole life. So far the only thing I really have down is pan fried fish, which is fantastic. I'm...

I have a host who wants our stainless cookware but saw that calphalon is on sale at Macy's. Other than the lifetime gauranty what are the benefits of ours vs calphalon? Thanks in advance!!!

Does anyone have one of the small cookware bags for sale? These are the ones that were an incentive a while back, my recruit is looking for one.

I'm looking to invest in one of the cookware sets and I'm leaning towards the SS. My concern however is the only SS piece I've owned is the 8" saute pan and am discouraged at how easily it discolors. I'm about to get the SS cleaner to see how much that helps but I'm wondering if it's just a lost...

Hello again everyone - long time no talk to! I am trying to find the item number for the old 7-piece Professional cookware set and I am not having any luck. Can someone please help??

Most of the people I have run into would never dream of paying full price for our cookware and knife block set, which is perfect for me to tell them they can earn it half off by hosting a show ;) (which we all do of course) but I was curious: Have any of you actually SOLD one of these 2 items...

Can this be used with any cookware? I had a customer ask, I've never seen it myself and the only information in the PIG is about our cookware.

At a booth I had this month, which I have to say I have a fab spot (right as they walk in the door they see me) and it is a show called the Women's Affair so a great target audience. I never in a million years would have thought I would have sold a full price piece of cookware, I personally...

question for anyone who had the padded envelopes. Does it comes with a cookware divider to use for the lid of the DCB?? If not where do you order the cookware dividers? I tried looked under the supply order and there not listed anywhere? lastly are the padded envelopes handy or would i be...

Thought I would share my experience today with all of you... About 3 weeks ago I did an adjustment on a DCB (Cranberry) for a host who used it once and it cracked while she was cooking fajitas in it in the MW. I did the adjustment online, it went right through, no return necessary - boom, new...

I'm trying to make sense of the cookware replacement guidelines as explained in the latest Consultant News: A valued customer can spend a lot of money on postage to have her cookware replaced, only to have it returned to her b/c H.O. determined she abused it, even if she did not? What if...

Have you all read yesterday's newswire? It talked about the Lifetime guarantee on cookware and how people have been getting replacements when they shouldn't have. I guess the question I have is, what if after 10 years the non-stick finish starts flecking off or something. Could they say...

I am just wondering, I know NO dishwasher. But what kind of handwashing do you do - do you use dish soap? Just hot water? Something else? Thanks. Mara

OK so here is another reason for people to freak about no stick pans... Be ready for questions.... Someone I know had this on their FB today http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/02/13/cookware-chemical-linked-to-thyroid-disease.aspx?sms_ss=facebook If anyone has the...

I don't see any files. Does anyone have any? I have a customer who just bought the 7 piece set from me, online. I'd like to send her some recipes.

Does anyone know? I have a customer who says her mom purchased her pans for her in 1999. Was the Professional cookware out then? Just trying to figure out if she has the old Generations or if these could be Professional pans... Thanks!

Had a customer at my show last night tell me that she, her daughter, and her sister each purchased various pieces from the Executive Cookware line in 2008. All three of them are having problems with the non-stick coating peeling off!:eek: I went over proper use and care with her, and it sounds...

Anyone have any Professional Cookware that they have recently returned? I have a customer that has a 10" skillet that the coating is peeling. When I phoned the adjustment in, HO advised that they are now charging to upgrade to the Executive Cookware. Anyone else have this issue and what are...

Hey ladies, does anyone know if an accidental and denting is covered in the LT warrenty to replace a pot (since it's not basic wear and tear problems)?? A guests pot fell off her counter and dented it and now the lid Will Not fit. :( Just wanted to see if anyone knew before calling HO? TIA!

Anyone have any recipes that they use that combines both the DCB & Cookware other than any in the Season's Best Cookbooks? Karen

Sooooooo...when you are making garlic bread bites and you pull them out of the oven and set them on the stove while you grab a plate to slide them out on.... Do NOT forget the skillet just came out of the oven and grab it with your bare hand!! PAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!! I...

Hi! I need some help for a potential host/ customer. Can someone please tell me what the guarantee time was for the professional cookware? She is having issues and wants an exchange. TIA!! :chef:

I have a question. I have a customer who just placed a good catalog show and bought an Executive Stir Fry Skillet. She says that she has one she got 6 years ago for her bridal shower. She asked me if the lifetime warranty covers the issue that it has "lost" it's non-stickiness (sp?). I believe...

Is this where one brags about getting a random call from someone wanting to buy the 7 piece Executive Cookware Set???? :D Great friend of mine must have told her MIL that she wants that cookware for Christmas. Oh my gosh! So MIL calls and is driving, so she's going to call back tonight. I...

I have a customer who has the professional cookware that she purchased from another consultant and the 8" saute pan has a very dark botom and the food is sticking. She does not have the receipt nor does she remember the name of her consultant. Is there anything I can do for her??
