This is an awesome HEAVY pot - Love it!!
This stockpot is an awesome find and an awesome deal. I purchased it, scoffing at the "retail price". When I received it - I was amazed at the quality of the pot! It is super heavy with a thick bottom to prevent scorching and burning. I thought I would only use it for heavy duty crowd cooking - but I find myself using it all of the time. It give plenty of space for spagetti to roll and move while it boils. I love making an endless pot of soup that we eat for days. I love this pot and you will too!!

My Mom Loves It
This is a very good quality item from Farberware. It's strong and cooks really well. The price was/is excellent, too. A stockpot such as this is one of those essentials you must have around the house. As I said earlier, my mom loves it and she's picky when it comes to cookware... so most of you probably will enjoy it too!

Good Stockpot at a Great Price
Farberware 18/10 stainless steel cookware is a good line. I had this cookware at one time, and I can recommend it, especially for use on gas burners. Unlike Calphalon cookware, it can go in the dishwasher. However, to keep the finish gleaming, you might need to scrub the pots and pans frequently with cleanser and scouring pads. This 10-Quart Stockpot is a kitchen essential.

Great quality
I was a bit hesitant to buy this because I never thought very highly about the Farberware brand name (always thought it was a cheap copy of and inferior to All-Clad, Kitchen-Aid, etc.). But the price was too good to pass up, so I took a chance. I'm happy I did because I use this pot all the time now. It has a very thick, heavy core on the bottom, which (pleassantly) surprised me. It's kept its sheen and good looks through many cleanings. Food sticking has not been an issue. I highly recommend this for someone who needs a big high-quality stockpot but doesn't want to pay All-Clad prices.

Great Value
We bought both the 12 and 16 quart pots. We couldn't be happier. We have a large family and these sizes are great for pasta, sauce, corn, chili, BBQ...you name it. They are very sturdy, and the bottom is perfectly flat...something we need because we have a ceramic cooktop. They heat evenly and food doesn't stick. We were looking at pots that cost considerably more, but I'm glad we make the choice we did.

A great, sturdy stockpot...
I have the 10 quart and 18 quart versions of this stockpot, and have nothing but praise for them. They conduct heat well, they look beautiful, and have quality you can feel every time you pick them up. They live up to their name -- Classic.

They are a great deal here on Amazon, too. You won't find this price at your local department store!

The 12 quart version would be good for cooking up lots of chili, soup or pasta...Make sure that you get an extra long ladle though!

Good gravy!
Well, I never thought I'd own a gravy boat, but here I am! Owning a gravy boat. As gravy boats go, it just sits in the cupboard and takes up space unless it's Thanksgiving or Christmas or I feel like cooking a turkey (Ha!). But it's very nice, easy to hold even when it's filled with hot gravy, and it holds a lot. Much easier to clean than any of those fancy metal ones.

Cobalt Blue
I purchased this in Cobalt Blue. It goes with my Fiestaware dishes, as well as my Pzaltsgraf and Longerberger Pottery. I also agree that the color and glaze are beautiful, and much nicer in person than online. It has a large capacity, and pleasing lines. I'll most likely purchase an additional one in another color for larger holiday meals, to be able to use more than one.

Buy two........
I first bought this one in a light yellow and have used it weekly for some ten years for everything from gravy to syrup, to a large creamer for winter mornings when we eat more hot cereal and use more cream. I have even used it in the microwave to melt butter for ghee (India clarified butter).

The handle is a nice size for either a childs hand or a mans. It has a nice non tip balance for passing to the next person and is easy to clean because the inside is smooth and doesn't have any catch the crude areas.

I have since bought a second one in the sea mist colour. The colours by the way are even and beautiful and in my opinion are much prettier than and Ad picture shows.........

Excellent dishware
You just can't go wrong with Fiestaware. It's sturdy, durable, attractive, cleans up easily (from table to dishwasher to cabinet). And if my rough-on-dishes family can't break it, no one can!

MULTIPLE USE BOWL
THIS 2 QT BOWL HAS MANY USES . I USE IT FOR MIXING , SERVING AND BAKING. IT IS WONDERFUL FOR MACARONI AND CHEESE , ALSO HAVE DONE COBBLERS . I HAVE 6 DIFFERENT COLORS . ONCE YOU GET ONE YOU WILL HAVE TO GET ANOTHER AND ANOTHER .

excellent size!
I got two of these 2-quart bowls about the same time we got our grill. Good timing.

These large bowls are super for large items: big potatoes, clams, grilled vegetables (including ears of corn). The size and the depth makes it easy to transport items to and from the grill, as well as easy to serve from. In between food uses, they look nice with pine cones or large apples in them.


Froth Au Lait Hot Milk Frother

    A whole lot of Froth!
    Works great! It heats the milk to 165 degrees which is an ideal temperature for coffee and even a great cup of Hot chocolate. You will love how easy it is to use and get a better than perfect cup of froth every time. Enjoy!

    Great frother!
    I just got the froth n sauce; which is the same thing but it does sauces in addition to milk frothing. I LOVE it!!! I had the best cafe au lait this morning. The foam is nice and strong and the milk is hot. Be sure you read the instructions, cream and half & half will not froth.

    It's great, it's easy, it's worth it
    I love my Froth Au Lait - it's easy to use, easy to clean, makes delicious froth of just plain milk, plus I make raspberry mochas or hot cocoa and it's a delight.

    Great gift -- for yourself, or someone else
    I received this combo as a Christmas gift, and I guess I was skeptical. But after using both parts of the combo several times, I'm sold.

    I've always enjoyed the George Foreman grills. When it's too cold out to use a proper BBQ, or you just don't want to take the time, a GF grill is just the ticket. Easy to use, easy to clean, and with its long-lasting non-stick surface, you'll be enjoying it for a long time to come. The jumbo model included with this combo is big enough for the whole family, or allows you to make extra ahead for lunch the next day.

    But the real gem is the rotisserie, and is where I was most surprised. If you enjoy whole roast chicken from one of the restaurant chains or your local grocery, you'll be pleasantly surprised when you're able to make it at home -- with the added benefit of controlling everything that goes into it. Simple recipes accompany the appliance, and the results are just delicious.

    The rotisserie comes with skewers for ka-bobs, or a basket for smaller foods like chicken legs or a small roast.

    Definitely one of my favorite gifts this past season, it gets a big thumb's up.

    Great Buy!!!
    Don't pass this up just because you can't see a picture. You can look them up separately to see the picts. and get the info. You'll also get sticker shock at the same time. This is a STEAL!!!

    I just received my grill & rotisserie today so I haven't used them yet. I had a smaller Foreman grill and this one is about double the size! The rotisserie looks great too. I'm sure I'll love the rotisserie as much as I will the grill. Since I had the smaller grill I can speak from experience about how great they are! Makes fixing dinner a whole lot easier since my husband was put on a low-fat diet by his doctor.

    Can't beat it
    You can't beat this deal if you could! The baby rotisserie alone goes for $60 and the Jumbo grill goes for $75 alone. I have the mini George Foreman grill and I live by it. I can't wait until I use the rotisserie.

    So much nicer than my old Mirro!
    No "jiggler" noise like the old unit I had, just a soft hiss of steam escaping. Has 2 pressures (8 and 12 pounds), versus the old 5, 10 or 15 of the Mirro. Potatoes cook quicker, dried beans are a snap! Easy to clean, plus it looks really modern and snazzy. ;-)

    timesaver
    I never used a pressure cooker before, but this cooker is great! It does get patotoes done in 6 minutes (from te time the pressure is built up) and they taste just as good as when you boil them conventionally. It really helps to get dinner on the table within 25 minutes of walking in the door. This cooker is a nice size for every day use and definetely worth the price.

    Get one...You'll be GLAD you did!
    I LOVE this cooker!!! It saves me time, work, money, nutrients, cooks 3-10 times faster. You can put food in even if not defrosted [although microwaves help that issue]. They make the best stews, soups, sweet and sour ribs, chili, puddings, cheese cakes etc. You can buy a really inexpensive cut of meat, put in your spices, some water and wine, and in less than 20 minutes it is fork tender. Whenever I have a recipe that calls for cooked chicken [like enchiladas], I buy the less expensive whole chicken, put it in the cooker and in 15-20 minutes it is falling-off-the-bone tender.

    This one comes with a double locking system and two levels of pressure; one for veggies and grains; the other for more dense foods like dry beans, meats or squash. I would never be without one again. I'm going to order the companion 6 quart that Fagor makes for those larger meats and veggies!

    Great all around pan
    I got a Farberware Millennium Stainless-Steel 12-Inch Nonstick Skillet for Christmas, and it has quickly become my favorite pan. It's great for everything from stir-frying to pan frying to sauteing. The only caveat is that this pan is quite heavy. The disk bottom is quite thick, which makes for even heating and quick cooking, especially when frying in batches or stir-frying. Since I've had the pan a scant 2 months, I can't yet comment on durability of the nonstick surface. So far, it looks brand new.

    Great Skillet
    This is a wonderful skillet! I love the non-stick coating,works great. Easy to clean-up.

    Farberware aims to please ¿ and surprise!
    I would have never thought of Farberware delivering amazing cookware, I'm relatively new to cooking, but I thought if i'm going to buy cookware, I want it to last, work well and know what i'm getting. My only piece of cookware at the time was really at Calphalon 12" Stir-Fry pan and I was planning on buying Calphalon again, until I saw an article in "Cooks Illustrated"(a magazine) which rated equipment. All-Clad was definetly out of my price range, but Farberware? It's been a few months and I use this pan at least 5 nights a week (since then I've gotten two All Clad stainless steel pieces as gifts), and it's the best. I'm holding out for the whole set now. I'm a kosher vegetarian so food tends to run the gamut - Tofu, seitan (a wheat gluten mock-meat product), Indian, Israeli, Chinese - they all cook and clean with ease. If the price was twice as much i'd still say go for it -

    The only con is that farberware does not sell a cover/lid for its "Open Stock" (i.e. not in a set) pieces - I use the lid from my Calphalon Stir-fry, but a Universal 12" lid would also work.

    The Millenium Non-Stick line has the price, quality and versatility of a classic. You can hand wash or run it in the dishwasher and it still looks brilliant - I can't say the same for my Calphalon or All-Clad cookware. (just remember as in all non-stick surfaces, DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS IN THEM! YOU'LL SCRATCH THE SURFACE OFF! or Pam (i.e. canned cooking spray - it'll take the non-stick surface off).

    Good Eating!

    Solid craftsmanship, good result
    Not counting coffee grounds and an inch of space at the top, this apparatus makes 35 oz. of coffee, or about four mugs full. (The size of your coffee mug and the amount of grounds to discount may vary, of course.) Another reviewer says "the hole in the lid for the plunger handle is not sealed," but that problem appears to have been fixed. The lid is now sealed where the plunger stem passes through, and there's no way I can see for liquids to get into the lid. Overall, this is a solid piece of work and beautiful besides. I hope to get years of service from it. I rate it four stars only because it doesn't keep the coffee hot for much longer than other coffee presses. (Yes, I do heat it up ahead of time.) If you expect to drink all your coffee within twenty minutes or so, it's fine, but it's not like a glass thermos with a vacuum seal that might keep it hot for hours. Maybe it's too much to ask, but I guess I'll have to keep on using the microwave to get the last cup or two good and hot!

    Not carried by Amazon/Kitchen
    The product was and is posted on Kitchen. But Kitchen does not carry the Frieling Stainless-Steel 33-Ounce French Press. I received a notice a few days after my order that the Press was not carried by Kitchen. My credit card was charged and a few days later it was credited back. So I bought it from someone else.

    Coffee and Martinis
    I only had the opportunity to handle the Bodum and Starbuck's stainless steel french presses before receiving this one as a gift. Prefer the Frieling. Makes coffe just fine and keeps it relatively hot. The big selling point for me is the overall design and construction. It just feels sturdier and seems to work smoother (without leaking grounds).
