A friend of mine wants to order a saute pan but asked me if PC still carried its "old" line of cookware. She doesn't remember the name of it so I'm at a loss as to what I should tell her. I'm assuming she would need to purchase a saute pan from the new line, right?:confused:
 
We now carry the Professional and Executive lines of cookware that both have a lifetime guarantee. We used to carry a Generations II line but discontinued that last August. It only had a 2 year guarantee. Was she looking to buy a new saute pan? If she is I recommend the Executive. It is the same price $38 and the best quality. I don't own the professional, believe it is good as well but for the same price I would certainly recommend Executive. I have it and I love it and recommend it to everyone.
 
Generation II was discontinued last fall. Both of the 8" saute pans are the same price and have lifetime guarantees, so she can't go wrong!
 
Congrats on your new biz! It is the best, I love it as well :)

Great information - I will let my friend know. Thanks for the help!
 
They are putting some Generation II pieces on the Outlet too. But I LOVE the Executive. I do have the Professional, but have a couple of Executive pieces.
