I had a guest tonight say that she bought Gen 2 cookware about 6 years ago and it is flaking off now. I am new to selling PC and never bought any Gen 2. Did it have a lifetime warranty? If I have her name and a general idea of when she purchased it... and an outside shot at the Consultant's name... will HO be able to find her? I have not been on CC tonight since it's so late to check if it's listed under use and care etc. but I'll head there.

I check on the PIG in CC... no listings there since it's discontinued I guess. I'll call HO tomorrow I guess. Any help you all have will be greatly appreciated!

It had a two year warranty. Hers lasted 3 times that long! You should let her know what a great deal it was since it lasted 3 times as long! Now she can upgrade for a Lifetime.

I feel a January booking coming on!!!!!!!
Thanks for the info!
 
I have the Gen II set also. I love it. I have had it for 4 years. I like it just as well as the lifetime set, although it is not as heavy. But, when it wears out I will be getting the new improved set. All of our cookware is great not matter which one it is.

It was one of those moments when she started talking that you think.. oh no... she is going to say she hates it etc... but thankfully... she only said... I have LOVED it and maybe it's just time for some new PC Cookware! Internally I was praising God and outwardly breathing a sigh disguised by a huge grin! :)
