| Aloha all, as much as I love RR.....the best, absolute hands down, no contest pots & pans are the non stick/anondized Calphalon. Yup, they are pricey, but so well worth the investment. You can usually find special deals at Macy's or www.chefscatalog.com If they are well taken care of you will never have to buy again!

| I love Rachel Ray! I have looked at her cookware but instead I bought the Gordon Ramsay cookware... stainless steel... a bit pricy but so worth it! This is professional grade cookware.... I was nevr much of a chef till I moved out on my own, now I love to cook... and the Ramsay stuff can go in the dishwasher... :)

| I have the RR food processor. I love it! I've never had one before, so I wanted one that was easy to use & not complicated & it completely fit the bill. I mainly use it for grating cheese & carrots & things like that or mixing baked goods, perfect for that!

hmmm I love RR, I collect all her cook books and magazines.... I guess personally the only thing I don't really like is that she makes everything spicy hot, but then again I can just omit that  she would never know lol

| I have been looking around for some new pots and pans. I love all her colors out! But that is not a good enough reason to buy them, lol...So I am glad that everyone has posted good comments about them. Thanks bunches!

| I have the blue set and they are wonderful! My old set was 15 years old and pretty badly scratched. These are definitely better. They cook evenly and I love the blue color.

| My daughter has the set, but the orange doesn't go with my kitchen.If she comes out with diff colors/no color, I'd be interested. JMO PL

|
| I have seen the RR pots and pans and I think they look great. I am still undecided about the handle color. I like orange. =)
|
|
|
|
| I've made a few of her recipes and they are all quick to make. If I'm on one of the challenges, it's often difficult because of the sodium content but it's always pretty good. My favorites are Giade de Laurentis and Alton Brown. Neither are exactly slimming, though.

| I am obsessed with Rachael so my mom bought me the entire cookware set in ORANGE for my housewarming/1st (nice) apartment present. I have a small kitchen so it is hard to store all of the pieces but they have been great to cook with!

| If you watch RR, she always uses on oval pan, larger than 2 quarts, Has anyone seen that one on the shelf?

I sometimes watch Rachel Ray's cooking shows-what do you all think of her cooking??

I have RR 10 inch and 12 inch skillets and also the grill pan. I love them. I love the idea of not having to use any spray or oil to cook with.
One of our better investments.

|
| Is it sprayed with Teflon or something? I'm kinda leary of those types of chemicals. I use a lot of cast iron. I guess I'm a bit of a freak about stuff like that! LOL! I refuse to use margarine or even most low fat/fat free things without really reading the ingredients. I'm not so sure that humanity is on the path to fix everything. I think we're screwing somethings up as we go along.

| I have really been considering a set and this has helped.

| I have the RR set and LOVE it. You have to hand wash (no dishwasher) but it cleans up super easy and NO metal utensils allowed -- only plastic or wood but once you adjust to these rules, it rocks!! At first, I wasn't fond of the orange handle but now I don't even notice it.

Really?? I'm glad to hear it! I have looked at them but I'm less than thrilled with the orange handles. Hubby bought me a Lodge Color enameled dutch oven for my birthday (it was about $40-50 compared with the La Cruesets for $90-150) and I love it. It's fantastic. Works just as well as my BIL's La Crueset and didn't hurt the pocket book nearly as much.
Thanks for the tip! I'll give her stuff more credit now!

| Any have it?? I got the 12" skillet for Mothers Day and I LOVE it!! It's awesome! I want the entire set now!
