Customer Reviews With Photos

I've agonized over which pots and pans to purchase. If they're taken care of, they'll last you a lifetime. I grew up admiring Martha Stewart and Julia Child. I enjoy watching Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa.) My favorite dishes to make are chicken and mango fajitas with orange and lime, my Aunt's lasagna recipe with beef and Italian sausage and four cheeses. I've been known to make gyros from scratch, baklava for holidays. I contemplated copper cookware, but I couldn't afford the Mauviel copper sets made in France. I have always loved 18/10 stainless. 18/0 hasn't much weight to it. I didn't want hard anodized cookware, or porcelain ceramic. I didn't want something inexpensive. Lagostina seemed it might be a great second choice. I went to Bed, Bath & Beyond simply to look at the Lagostina. For $2K, Mauviel copper cookware has a base of 2.5 mm thick. For $399.00, Lagsotina's copper set is 2.3 mm thick. I also examined the Lagostina stainless steel for $199.00 on sale. The lids seemed to wobble on the cookware. An annoyance I couldn't live with. Copper is a fabulous conductor of heat and it's beautiful. However, it cannot be placed in the dishwasher, it discolors with a bluish green patina, and must be polished with Wright's copper cream or Bar Keepers Friend, or a fresh lemon and salt to restore original color. Too much upkeep for me for everyday use. I felt stainless steel is the way to go. Non stick is only nice if you don't cook with E.V. olive oil, or any fats. Through researching, Martha Stewart said,; 'ALL CLAD; is the greatest cookware on the planet, and it's American made.' if that's important to you. I looked at All Clad at Bed Bath& Beyond. Oh, it was lovely! The heaviest cookware. I picked up some Cuisinart MCP and held it in my hand. I was seriously impressed. I researched the weight of each of the pieces, because that matters. If you want cheap, go to Walmart. I'm not trying to knock Walmart. Martha Stewart said, "Buy what you can afford." cuisinartoutlets.com Prime had this priced normally at $670.00 suggested retail. This entire set of Cuisinart Multi Clad Pro, 12 piece stainless steel cookware for $205.00 without sales tax. I was SOLD. It arrived in early 2018, I was thrilled! USPS delivered it to my doorstep. I couldn't even pick up the box as it's very heavy. I scooted it across the foyer, through the living room, right into my kitchen and parked it in front of my stove. I'm in love. This stuff is AMAZING!! Here's another thing that sold me quickly. I believe this is oven proof to 500 or 550 degrees. It pours nicely directly from the pieces themselves. Brilliantly designed. Remember, after FOUR years, mine still looks like the day it arrived. Bar Keepers Friend powdered cleanser/polish is your best friend. (Wear gloves.) For the weirdos who don't know how to cook, if it sticks, you're doing it wrong. I had my 10" MCP pan on medium to cook pancakes this morning, and even on medium, it was a tad too hot for pancakes. This MCP conducts heat beautifully. I'm not using metal scouring pads on this cookware. I want it to stay beautiful. I have a green nylon scouring pad, and a stiff dishwashing brush. I want my cookware to look beautiful always, and it's dishwasher safe. I am looking forward to using the steamer insert to steam fresh veggies! The stock pot in this set is eight quarts, very ample for a pot of chicken soup or clam chowder from scratch. I love the eight inch pan, it will be great for omelettes! I sautéed chicken last night, made rice, and broccoli. This cookware set is perfect!!!! Buy what you can afford. (Hint fo the day: You do NOT need oil to warm up a tortilla. Place a circular piece of parchment paper in your pan. It works like charm.)

This was a purchase 2 years ago. We could not be happier with the overall performance of the Cuisinart Set. What we do use we use nearly every day and you would be quite impressed to see they still look like new. We mostly use the large skillet and even if we seem to overcook something, (oops burned) cleanup has always been not a issue. If we were to do anything different it would be to purchase a smaller set, as we seldom use most of the sauce pans, skillets and never seem to use the stock pots. We would highly recommend this stainless steel cookware and buy again (can't imagine wearing these out) if we needed to replace. We have a gas stove with cast iron grates but bottom still looks good after 2 years.

This is my new favorite pan to cook with. It hearts up quickly and evenly and is completely non-stick. So far I've used to on med-high settings for eggs, bacon, sausage and quesadillas. Yesterday I set the heat on low and slow cooked some beef teriyaki. I'm finding I don't even need to use oil or butter, everything I cook in in slides right off the surface. I love the angle and curve at the lip that allows easy flipping of items I'm cooking. Cleanup is a breeze as well, only needs to be rinsed and run over with a soapy sponge. I have been making a point of drying it with a dish towel right after washing it, rather than allowing it to drip dry in the dishrack. The handle on the lid can get hot, but other than that, this pan is pretty much perfect!

I used it at least 5 times so far to make Arabic ice cream. After adding the mix to the machine, and within 20 -25 minutes, I was able to get my organic ice cream which I served to myself as soon as it was ready…and needless to say, I have to use my treadmill a lot more since I have bought this machine… The machine is sturdy, but could be loud, so forget about watching or listen to anything while this machine is running. The ice cream quality and taste that it makes in my opinion was better than many ice cream brands I have tried before. I don’t think I have tasted any ice cream not only in the US, but also in Europe with the same texture or taste. Would I recommend it? Yes and no… Yes, if you want to make a delicious tasting ice cream that would really surprise anyone who have the healthy taste buds for a good tasting homemade ice cream… And no, I won't recommend if you are trying to stay fit unless you adopt a different workout program … I definitely recommend

Why did you pick this product vs others?: 3 years later and still working! Pros: - Good coffee - reliable Cons - clock runs fast - bit tall

It has all the features and quality you'd expect from a name brand but unfortunately, this one doesn't toast evenly. My example toasted much hotter on the inside coils. All the coils appeared to be glowing at the same brightness so I don't know what the issue is. It has great cord storage and the Cancel button is right on top for easy access. The crumb tray is located in front as well. A feature I've never seen before is that the lever can be lifted during a cycle to inspect the toasting progress without canceling and restarting. Cool! It has a defrost/toast cycle that the instructions claim will defrost then toast a frozen item. I tried that with frozen waffles with mixed results. It still toasted more on the inside coils. There was no mention in the instructions to run a few cycles first to burn off any manufacturing residue, but I highly recommend doing that. I've been using this for a week and have yet to get an evenly toasted slice of bread or frozen waffle. I expected much more from Cuisinart. UPDATE: I read many of the reviews saying how evenly this toasted bread and figured I got a bad one. I exchanged it as defective. The replacement toaster is only marginally better. Still toasting very unevenly and burning the side facing the inner coils. Regardless of the brand name, made in China is still made in China

Very good product, could be better in my opinion but for an automated icecream maker it is very nice. 4 stars because 1) There was a big sticker on the front that was not EZ peel, left glue residue on the brand new machine. 2) When the machine is turning or churning, however you want to say it, it doesnt scrape the entire bottom or sides so when you take your icecream out there is always really hard icecream stuck to it. Do not use metal spoon to scrape it off unless you want marks in your bowl. Other than those 2 things its great, I have made 5 gallons of icecream with it so far!

As most have said putting this together is a bit of a pain. But that's usually the case when deal with screw holes in metal. Everything has to line up just perfectly. Also some have said the screw holes aren't in the right spots. That's not true. Some of the pass thru holes are just bigger than the screw thickness giving wiggle room but if you screw each screw in tight as you go you are locking it into place versus just getting each screw started, giving the next screw slack to meet its hole and THEN tighten them all. My only issue is the welding on the protection bars around is one small weld on each side where they connect. one came out the box broken. the other wiggles. I can easily fix this and isn't a major issue but sloppy to put a product out like that. Everything else though is awesome!

This was purchased to replace my 7 year old Kitchenaid, that started failing me at about 2 years. I had to stick a butter knife into the handle that made it think the safety part was on so it could start. Otherwise even with the lid securely in place it would bug out and not work. Very frustrating. So I knew I wanted to stay away from Kitchenaid, but wanted a company I was familiar with. I liked the style and attachments, size etc. I was skeptical because well bad luck with processors will do that. Compared to my kitchenaid I'm very happy with it. Best part is that it's super quiet, and I'm using this more so than my blender. My dogs get triggered over the loud blender, but have yet to make a peep out of the dozen times I've used this. Made dough, streusel topping, salsa, ranch dressing, smoothies, crushed dehydrated strawberries. Chopped celery, carrots, onions, potatoes and apples. No complaints, it powers through, no signs of motor strain either. I'm happy I went with this one, overall. Only complaint, and it's probably just because I'm used to my other one still. But the lid will snap on, and the front will be fine, but you have to make sure you here a snap in the back. Otherwise if it's powdery it will go everywhere(as shown in the pics).

I like this grind and brew coffee maker. I found it convenient and enabled me to make a fresh cup of coffee. At the start, the reservoir holds enough water to make 40 ounces of brew. Since I use filtered water, I didn't need the provided filter that goes in the reservoir. Next, we need coffee beans, and this is my first complaint: instead of a wide-open bowl to pour beans into, the space is constricted by the motor for the grinder (see Figure 1). So, you will need a means of getting the beans into a narrow space. Once you do, the bean reservoir holds enough for at least ten cups of 10 ounce coffee. Grinding the beans is a learning curve. The button for grinding is an "off-on" switch; on, to grind, off to stop. Nine seconds is sufficient for my taste for a 10 ounce cup of coffee. Left on, the grinder will run for 15 seconds, which provides a strong brew of 12 ounce coffee. A built-in timer would have been handy to go with the grinder, beeping at one second intervals. The accessories include a screen container to hold fresh grounds, a plastic container to hold the screen, and a plastic container to hold K cups. For those interested, I use reusable screen K cup containers (available elsewhere on cuisinartoutlets.com), that can be used with both of the supplied plastic holders. All-in-all, I would recommend this brewer.

So, here’s the deal, fellow coffee lovers: I got tired of my single-cup brewers dying after about two years consistently and sprung for The Mega Machine. I’m a professor and when I have negative feedback for a student then I always start and end with something positive. Let me begin by saying that I really do enjoy the fresh ground-and-brewed coffee that you get when using the carafe. Now for the negatives: 1. I have to unplug the machine after every use because if, like me, you like to leave various things open to air dry (I don’t want a moldy coffeemaker, do you?) then all sorts of lights start flashing and the machine won’t turn OFF when it registers that something is amiss. I can’t use any of the handy programmable features since I can’t leave it plugged in so every morning my coffeemaker is the machine version of Drew Barrymore in “50 First Dates.” 2. You must remove the grinder after every brewed pot even if you don’t grind anything because it gets chock full of moisture. And when you DO grind then said moisture totally gums up the works and a bunch of your fresh grounds don’t slide on down into the brewing basket. 3. Speaking of the grinder - what a disappointment it was to discover that it only works in tandem with the carafe! Want freshly ground beans to use with the single cup feature? Then you’ll need to have your mortar and pestle at the ready because the on-board grinder lives on the opposite side of town from the single-cup brewer and they’re not on speaking terms. 4. If you’re a tree-hugger and want to use your own coffee in a reusable single-serve pod then have fun finding one that works with this machine! It says that it’s compatible with “most” reusable k-cup filters but I tried three different ones and they all resulted in water running around the outside of the filters and dribbling out - sometimes into the cup but mostly all over the counter. The one DIY reusable pod that works with this coffee maker is NOT included with the machine. You need to spend another $12 on the official Cuisineart HomeBarista pod (conveniently available on this very site!). I don’t believe in single-use k-cups so, again, a bummer. 5. If you enjoy playing guessing games then you’re going to love trying to figure out how much water is in the single-cup reservoir. There’s no gauge on the single-serve side of town (even though there is one on the carafe side - but you don’t need that because you fill the carafe with the water you need, using the cup markers on the actual pot, and pour it in; redundancy for the carafe and nothing for the pod - the injustice of it all!). In the highly likely event that you overfill the pod reservoir then good luck avoiding electrocution as the excess water pours out of the hole in the back of the machine and all over the power cord that’s plugged into the outlet. I kid you not. 6. If you’re out of water then a water drop icon appears on the world’s smallest, darkest display. Backlight, anyone?! Not here. Have fun with THAT! To summarize: brewed coffee yummy. The rest of the many bells and whistles will leave you wishing, as I do, that I had purchased a different machine. Or, for that matter, three machines: one to brew a pot, one to make a cup and a grinder, which would have cost considerably less when purchased separately then the price tag was for The Mega Machine.

Overall sturdy and functions adequately. We use this toaster over daily for toast, heating up chicken nuggets/fish sticks for the kiddos, and reheating leftovers. I occasionally use it to roast or broil vegetables, but since there are 5 in my family, it is usually only when I have a smaller portion of vegetables and don't want to heat up the oven. We have had this for over a year and so far no problems. I have seen others post about problems with the heating coils, but so far so good here. Pros - Heats up fast - Does what it says, I like products that do a few things but do them well. In my experience, products with lots of bells and whistles break easier. - Toasts evenly - Multiple shelf positions - Crumb tray slides out easily and cleans easily - It looks good on the counter, it does not take up too much space, and things can be set on top of it if needed. - It is a good price for a reliable product Cons - The food tray does not remove easily and when hot can be a burn hazard for fingers (or maybe just my fat fingers - The food tray does not clean easily. We have to keep it covered with aluminum foil that we change regularly. - No timer, not really a problem, we use the one on the microwave

I didn’t want to review this, I didn’t even want it after I ordered it. I tried to cancel it because of the horrible reviews that I somehow missed on first glance. But, I was too late and it still showed up. I decided to open it and give it a chance. Here’s my pros cons list and advice. Don’t assume the bad reviews on workmanship are reviews from people who are familiar with assembly (even just a little). Don’t assume the complaints about the usability are from regular backyard smoker dads and moms. No, this isn’t going to smoke enough for the neighborhood, and you aren’t going to be selected for the next season of Smokey Pete’s Competition Smoker Cook Offs. But, if you’re looking for a smoker that uses charcoal and won’t shutoff while you’re away for any one of 600 electrical causes (pellet smoker) and you want to create a mouthwatering main course for your friends and family, this unit will perform. Pros -stupid easy assembly -decent size for a good quality cook -attractive finish -water pan and charcoal pan are good sized -door handle is quality and won’t take your skin -the lower clasps are handy for access -extremely cost effective -the unit breathes well Cons -it isn’t perfect -there are some paint perfection issues -the handles aren’t amazing -there are gaps at the door for smoke to escape -also at the thermometer for smoke escape (It does need to breathe and this works) -it’s not going to take a full rack of ribs -the door mechanism leaves something to desire All in all, this is a no brained and I’m happy it came, despite my desire to cancel based upon some bad reviews.

I just plugged my wine cellar in. I can hear the sound from it running.. not sure how the temp is yet but its a pretty cool unit
