I love the Corelle Livingware but don't get the kit - the silverware and glasses are worse than plastic cups and silverware!

Find some nice glasses and flatware by a different vendor but I literally threw out the silverware because it was all bent up (3 of the items were so out of shape they couldnt be fixed) and the rough edges hurt your hands to use them!

I bought this along with a baker from Emile Henry and Le Creuset. They are all very good. They heat and clean up easily. Emile Henry is the best, followed by Le Creuset and then the Cuisinart. Curious that Cuisinart and Le Creuset are both made in Thailand. if you have the bucks go for Emile Henry. The best bargain is the Cuisinart. Check the sizes on all the bakers and then fiqure on them being a bit smaller than you think.

I bought this dish about 6 months ago and use it on a regular basis. However, when baking some fish at moderate oven temperature (375), it split into two separate pieces with a loud "crack"; there was no extreme temperature changes either.
Go figure.

This bakeware cooks well, cleans up easily (even with baked on pumpkin) and is well balanced with great handles. The handles proved ergonomic and exceedingly functional.

Even loaded and heavy with foodstuffs these handles allow an easy transition from counter to oven and out again. You do not have to balance this bakeware with support under the hot container--these handles allow suffient gripping surface to transition even the heaviest of foodstuffs.

Cleanup is easier than with most other bakeware. Hot soapy water and/or soaking in hot soapy water for 3-5 minutes, and a wipe out with a wet paper towel results in a pristine bakeware with no residues. No scrubing necessary. I would rate this exceptionally easy to clean.

This bakeware also cooks evenly. Highly recommend this line of cookware

I ordered 2 round ones and 2 square ones and they sent me 3 square and one round. Not worth my while to return but disappointed nonetheless.

These are my favorite cutting boards. Cuisinart makes 3 cutting/prep boards, round, square and rectangle. I bought them in a set all together, I use at least one everyday. They are dishwasher safe so clean up couldn't be easier and they will not dull your knives, absorb odors or collect bacteria. They are all slightly raised around the edge so liquid will not spill on your counter, perfect for tomatoes or anything else you are chopping. I actually just ordered a second rectangle one. You can even use them for outdoor serving, fruit, cheese, etc. Highly recommended! A+!

This is a round 12" counter protector/cutting surface. It has a raised edge to prevent food from sliding off and liquids and juices from spilling. Can be used as a tray for chopped veggies & dips. Dishwasher and Microwave safe.

This is a great pot for a mulitude of uses. I have used it to cook spaghetti sauce, chili, various stocks, soups, boiled dinners, cooked pasta and to make demi glaze without it scorching, burning or having hot spots to contend with. I have also used this in the oven to make Boston Baked Beans for a crowd and the pot performs perfectly every time. I have also used this pot to make hot mulled spiced wine for a holiday party and used it directly as a hot punch bowl. Since it is made out of stainless steel, there is no fear of a reaction of acidic foods becoming dark, off colored or ending up with a funny taste. It has sturdy handles, a nice hefty weight without it being too heavy and a lid that fits tightly. Although I also own the Cuisnart Multi Clad 8 quart stock pot, I find this size useful for smaller quantities. If food is stuck or burned on, a short soak with hot soapy water and a nylon scraper and it cleans up beautifully. Although you can put this into the dishwasher, I prefer to wash it by hand and use on occasion a rub of Bar Keepers Friend to keep it in brand new condition. I find the quality and workmanship comparable to the All Clad line but at a much better and much more affordable price. It is a stockpot you will use time and time again and one I recommend.
