I can only give this slicer 5 stars, if I had a choice I would give it 10 stars.
I got this as a Christmas gift. My first use was to test it at slicing the dinner turkey leftovers for lunch meat. It worked perfectly.
I have since used it to slice roast beef, sharp cheddar cheese, ham and vegetables.
The meat is cut as thin as you want, I prefer very thin, no problem.
This is a dream machine, it is built to last and easy to clean.
I have tried to find something negitive to say but I really cannot. If you need a slicer Buy it,
No I don;t work for chefchoice. I am really a satisified customer.

I'm very Happy this product.
Slice the Hardest Italian Salami and the softest Bread the Same
way.Easy to clean. I'm recomending this product for everybody.

This pizzelle maker is as great as you would hope it would be, and then some. Super fast, and it keeps itself so clean, you don't have to worry about clean up. This 3 inch size is perfect for snacking on, and they're easier to keep whole. Try it, you'll love it!

I thought I couldn't live without my Cuisinart or Kitchen Aide - this product goes on the same list!!! This was the easiest, best performing kitchen "gizmo" I have ever had. A must for entertaining and holiday baking - simple, easy - no mess! Gone are the days with the "one at a time" with the gas burner!! Love it, love it!!!

Very pleased with these knives, they are very sharp. Perfect for those steaks coming off the grill!

I have had these knives for 24 years (wedding gift), we had six but over the years have lost them along the way. I still reach for this knife first, sadly we are down to only one but will be buying more soon. I love this knife because it is NOT serrated. Never had to have them sharpened either. If you are considering buying them DO IT. You won't regret it.

This mini muffin pan looks like it is too shallow at first, at least that was my initial impression (what have I done?!?! I thought when I opened my box)
However, the pan soon showed me! Not only is it good for mini muffins, it is also great for stuffed mushrooms (they won't wobble over, each piece stays in its little section, fabulous) Also, perfect for mini-tarts and mini-quiches. You can make about 15 from one pie crust (I buy the Pillsbury premade kind) Use a yogurt cup to get circles just the right size! Fabulous.

I highly recommend this versital mini muffin pan.

I use the mini muffin pan to prepare hors d'oevres and little desserts for parties and get-togethers. Everyone is always impressed with the versatility of this pan, along with the great presentation (they look great in a lined Longaberger basket)! The pan cleans very easily, and has help up well. I love it so much that I ordered a second one!

I agree! This is the best cookie sheet ever! I normally don't write reviews but I was ordering a few more of these cookie sheets and felt so strongly that this was such an excellent product. It bakes things so perfectly it's unbelievable the difference!!! A special note: it bakes cookies a little slower than dark cookie sheets so add an extra minute to your cooking time and they will come out perfect!

I highly reccommend this cookie sheet!

All cookie sheets I buy in the stores for the same price need to be replaced in a few months, but this one was built very sturdy. I was thinking it was going to be a little bit bigger, but its still a good size for small batches of cookies of anything you need to bake. The items I have baked so far with this baking sheets, have just slid off. I didnt even have to use a utensil to get them off. If anything should happen to this product it is covered with a 25 year warrenty and that also helped sell me on this product. This product is also so easy to clean, it takes no effort at all.

We enjoy wok cooking several times a week and have gone through several "off the shelf" electric woks. Manufacturers had not yet produced a heavy-duty electric wok until now. The Circulon 14" wok is far superior to any similiar product we have found on the market - price included. The pan is heavy and retains heat exceptionally well. The controls are easy to use and offer the variety of heating temperatures needed for oriental cooking. Although non-stick surfaces have been available for years this pan is truly that. The ability to totally submerge the pan for cleaning is a definite plus and allows the user to hang the pan on a suspended cooking rack system. This wok with be the last one you will ever buy.

I have spent thousands of dollar's, On Meyers cookware everthing from KitchenAid, Anolon, Prestige, Faberware, & Circulan, just to name a few. Though Meyers does manufacture very high quality pots & pans and I would recommend them to anyone it's just sad that if you have any problem with them, under warranty, you have to go throught the chain of command, that never gets you anywhere, even if you want to speak with upper management about the rudeness of the customer service department. Their customer service department employees are always very rude and snotty and they act like they are doing you a favor to even talk to you about their products. Don't get me wrong they do make good cookware, probably the best, but you as the consumer are at the mercy of their customer service and their descision or your fait on wheather your life time warranty is honored or not.

Highly recommended.
It's a "2", making it a sturdier, heftier pan than a "Classic." I bought this "2" 12-Inch pan to replace my "Circulon Classic 11-Inch Nonstick Stir Fry Pan" bought in 2000 here at Amazon (= still available at Amazon) because of its slightly larger size.
I gave the 11-Inch Classic [in still perfect condition after all my use of more than 3 years] away to my college kid who wanted to buy one like Mom's stir-fry pan herself.
Just take good care of your pan, wood or plastic utensils only, and DO NOT overheat coated pans, and you'll be happy.

Of all the pans in my kitchen, this is the one I use the most. This pan is pretty heavy and is extremely durable, and nothing sticks to the surface, even crusted items that have been burned on the bottom of the pan. They didn't skimp with the handle like on some other pans -- its thickness makes it easy to lift a heavy load of food, and it seems like it can take a lot of abuse. Overall, I think the closest competitor to this pan is the stir-fry pan from Analon, but after holding both in my hands at the store, I chose this one due to the handle and the seemingly-better non stick surface.

This appears to be the exact pan that Martin Yan always uses on his PBS show ("Chinatowns") -- he almost never uses a wok, and when he does, it's the Circulon 2 wok (which I don't have, because who needs it with this 12" stir fry pan). Granted, I'm sure that Circulon sponsors his show, but it's still a good pan.

This pan is most useful as a wok replacement. Because it doesn't have a flat bottom, I can't use it for everything (e.g. omletts), but I also frequently use it in non-wok situations such as pasta sauces. At 12" it can fit a surprising amount of stir-fry, enough for 4-6 people if it's filled to the brim, but occasionally I do wish Circulon made a bigger stir-fry pan besides their wok. I also wish it came with a lid, but I own a 12" lid from another pan, so I don't need one.

After owning this pan for a year, I am so impressed with Circulon that now I always search for pans in the Circulon 2 lineup before considering anything else.

I bought this cookware set and love it. The nonstick coating works very well and is very easy to clean. They say that you can't use a Brillo pad to clean it or you will ruin the nonstick coating, so be careful. I use a scrubbing pad very gently on it and it seems to be fine. You don't need to use much elbow grease to get them clean, though. I have used all the items and they are all perfect for what they are designed for. However there is a definate need for a larger skillet. I went out and bought a deep 12 inch skillet and it really fills out the set. I haven't needed any other pans yet, but I think these will keep us covered pretty well. But you definately need the 12 inch skillet/stir fry pan.

PROS:
-Affordable
-Fits the needs for the everyday cook
-Very attractive design and look
-The lids keep the steam in the pot/pan very well
-Heat is very well distributed when cooking
-Doesn't burn items very easily

CONS:
-12 inch skillet is a much that is not included in the set
-Somewhat hard to keep the bottoms perfectly clean

All in all, this is a great set for the everyday cook. They are attractive, very functional, and affordable; the three things that you should look for in a cooking set.

This is one of my favorite pans. I love Circulon Classic and I own several of their products. I needed a larger saucepan so I looked at Circulon's offerings. When I spotted this pan, I knew it would be a winner. With its size and shape, it can function as a large saucepan AND a small stir-fry pan. The capacity of this pan will surprise you. The curved sides make stirring easy and thorough. The helper handle is also a great feature when you have to lift a full pot or pour food from it into a serving bowl. The handles on these pans are oven safe up to 350-degrees F.

It has one of Circulon's beautiful, high-dome stainless steel lids that fits so snugly that it holds in all the moisture just beautifully. The hard-anodized aluminum exterior distributes heat evenly and you can use a lower setting than you normally do. The non-stick interior prevents burning or sticking and it's a breeze to clean. Don't worry about those grooves. Although you can't put the pans in the dishwasher, they are so easy to clean that I don't mind handwashing them. It's an act of love for my precious Circulon. When I wash my Circulon pans, first I scrub the interior with a nylon scrubbing sponge, then I use a rounded dish scrubbing brush to gently clean out those grooves with a circular motion. You can use tougher scrubbing pads on the hard-anodized exterior. I've never had a sticking problem no matter what I cook in circulon.

So what's not to love? Get one! You'll love it.

I reach for this Chef's pan constantly--it is deep enough to handle stews, casseroles, and similar big jobs. It's also handy that it can go into the oven up to 350. The handles stay cool on the stove top, and I love the convenience of the "helper handle" feature. It is a breeze to keep clean. I was initially a bit worried about the grooves, thinking that it might be tricky to keep the pan surface clean, but I have never once been disappointed with its performance. This is definately a well-constructed pan that will hold a prominent spot on my stove for years to come.

i first bought circulon cookwear 15 years ago. i love the way the food cooks and how easily they clean up. i recently tried another brand of cookwear and it does'nt compare,(even though the price was similiar)i will stick with circulon from now on.

The very first time I used this stockpot, I made a chili. After browning the meat and adding the other ingredients, I neglected to turn the flame down so the chili could simmer. Any other pot I own would have formed a burned ring of food at the bottom by the time I returned 30 minutes later, but the Circulon stockpot was merrily boiling. Not only that, but the ENTIRE surface of the chili was boiling, not just a ring around the outside. The heat transfer properties are wonderful! Cleanup afterward is a true breeze, and though I haven't had time to really test it, the finish looks tough as nails. I'm happy with this product, and what a great price!
