    Which Cookware?

    Andy has posted the link to the set I just bought for my daughter. The set that I bought earlier had fewer pieces and sold for $130. (Vyshtia posted the pic of the older set on page one of this thread) The new set adds a 2qt pan and a 10" fry pan and swaps the 6qt stock pot and steamer for an...

    Which Cookware?

    I bought the Member's Mark set about a year ago and absolutely love it! I picked up an All-Clad brand sauce pan (ebay) to fill in the size range. I've not found ANY difference in the way either brand performs/cleans up/shines/browning/cool handles,etc. The question I can't answer is: will they...

    Which appliance purchase was your worst mistake?

    It was eons ago that my wife purchased from an infomercial (pre-internet days) a multilevel-stackable-plastic-whizz-bang-sure-to-magic food dehydrator gadget. What a great deal of money we were destined to save!! What a wonderful and varied selection of foodstuffs we would surely have!! What...

    Side-mounted firebox

    To follow-up a bit: In the short time I've had this CharGriller I have grilled beef, pork, poultry and veggies; I have smoked a full packer (brisket) and "indirect-grilled" Beer Can Chicken and baby-back ribs. I'm gaining ten pounds a day, but you should see the grin on my face! I LOVE this...

    Side-mounted firebox

    CharGriller here, too ! On Memorial Day (two days ago) I went to my Lowe's store and finally bought the CharGriller that I had been eyeing for a while. :cool: My previous grill was my third Char-Broil in a row, this one now three years old and falling apart.:sad: Admittedly, this was one of...

    Help with SS cookware buying and opinion on Wolfgang Puck Set?

    I recently bought the Member's Mark Tri-Ply set and have been very impressed by this set. I also bought a single sauce pan (1qt)from All-Clad to 'fill in' the set. The All Clad and the MM pans are virtually identical in appearance and the MM actually has a more polished interior than the AC. I...

    Doughmaker's brand...anyone with advice?

    I'v been looking at the Doughmaker's brand of bakeware and wondering if its really 'all that'. Its aluminum bakeware that has an exclusive "pebbled" surface and according to the sellers (the boutique-y specialty cooking stores; You know the places that include the the name "shoppe" as sort of a...

    Help with SS cookware buying and opinion on Wolfgang Puck Set?

    After posting earlier I had to go to Sam's anyway...so I looked at the tri-ply and the WP. I went ahead and bought the tri-ply. The WP set has eight pans and the tri-ply has six. Thats the basic difference, tho the WP adds utensils to the set as well. I was undecided between the sets until I...

    Help with SS cookware buying and opinion on Wolfgang Puck Set?

    I can't offer much help as I'm in the same boat...about to buy and needing guidance. What I can offer is this: At my local Sams club for about $130, there is a very impressive (to a dummy like me) set of "tri-ply" cookware which to my untrained eye seems very similar to All-Clad. This is not...

    K5A question

    "What is that thing next to the dough hook?" I think you're asking about that odd looking thing in the far right-hand bottom corner... thats actually not something on the counter, its a graphic added to the pic (a watermark) which was put there by ebay, I guess. The pic is the one listed on ebay...

    K5A question

    Thanks for the kind words! It was plain old white: The white was just too boring! It looks pretty good now, but I'm going to order a new lift handle 'cuz mine has a couple of rust spots that won't go away. I'll also need to get the proper plug for the attachment hub cover, the one with the...

    K5A question

    Progress! I finally got 'er finished (ain't she puurrrdy?). Probably not the first Cobalt K5-A, but she's MY first! I stripped her down to raw-material-stage for the repaint...I was pleasantly surprised to find very little wear inside. My first project is going to be starting from the...

    K5A question

    Yay-Yuss! Its finally here! Its actually only been a week since he shipped it, but I've been pumped-up about it since the sale closed! The unit seems to be in pretty good shape except for the power cord. The dough hook's coating is sort of 'puffy' at the shaft end due to the metal corroding a...

    K5A question

    Thanks for the links! Thats a better deal than I'd found so far, for sure. I finally got a response from the seller today...he had been out of town and assured me that the mixer shipped Monday, so I'll just have to be patient! I'll wait til it arrives to be absolutely sure about it's identity...

    K5A question

    :smile: Thanks, guys! I'm a both bit hard-headed and easily confused....its a bad combination!:lol: The mixer's listed as a K5A but just to be sure, I guess I'll wait til I actually wrap my stubby-chubbies around it before ordering any parts. I think you're on the money about the wide bowls and...

    K5A question

    I agree, it seems like "forEVER" since I won that thing, but its just anticipation; its actually only been a week! I've emailed requesting a tracking number. I just need to be patient. The veggie slicer arrived yesterday and I thought that would help settle my KA jones, but it just heightened...

    K5A question

    Andy, does that mean that they are, in fact, interchangeable? I can just buy whichever is my preference? Thanks! Ricky

    K5A question

    The K5A has not yet arrived (waiting very impatiently) but I know from the listing *4450526128* that it does not include the flat beater. I will get one (ebay, of course) but I'm wondering about materials; I seem to recall some beaters that are either stainless or aluminum, but either way bare...

    Without letting too much light into my room,

    Wow! I knew I'd like this place. Thanx, all, for the warm welcome! I feel very welcome, indeed! I'll be weeks, I'm sure, just reading all the interesting stuff in the archives. I'm very much looking forward to trying lots of recipes. I just recently introduced myself to pressure cooking; I love...

    Without letting too much light into my room,

    I'll ease one corner of the curtain back and take a peek. Hey...I might like it here... I've been studying all of you for a while now (lurking). I'm going to take the plunge, sort of, diving in to learn from this pool of knowledge that all of you folks represent! (My apologies to the Gods of...

    Refrigerator Is On It's Way Out.

    You're right, it did bring me out of the woodwork! I've been known for jumping in with both feet...while scarcely looking where I'm going! There's nothing quite as engaging for me as a dire warning that begs debunking or an outrageous claim which dares a challenge. I do hope to learn a bit...

    Refrigerator Is On It's Way Out.

    Buckytom, not a problem! it seems I walked in on the middle of an inside joke...man I do that a lot!:rolleyes: No Ire, BTW, just concern that others might see it and 'run with it' and, well, you know how fast and long-lived those internet rumors can be! BTW, re: your tag line, OJW was...

    Refrigerator Is On It's Way Out.

    Congrats! Darn shame about the fridge magnets,eh? Seriously, tho, black with SS doors sounds like a good combo. For ages, I have had just mundane white top freezer Kenmores; A few years back I inherited a black Amana s-by-s and the color really spruces up the kitchen! Ricky
