went to the home show and watched the demo of the waterless cookware. Of course he offered a GREAT (yea right) price if you bought it from him right there.
does anyone have this cookware? this one was made by west Bend, which i know is a great company. but i know other people make the cookware also.
do you use it, like you should?
is it worth the price?
any suggestions?
I see other makers on e-bay

| So, how much do they want now for that "marvelous" cookware? My 2 cents: don't spend a dime on that. It isn't worth it, it never was, it never will. And, ask yourself, really, Why does waterless cookware happen to be sold **exclusively** at home shows/As-seen-on-TV websites? |
RE: waterless cookware

well, the cheapest set was $1,299.00
and he would throw in 3 other pieces........to the first 5 people that bought a set....
someone asked him for a price list, and he said if you will wait until my demo is over, i will give you one. If not then come back to another demonstration...it struck me kinda rude........
he then remarked, that those of us that just left without buying, just didn't care about our health.
thanks for the thought/ |

| Do you know how many pieces of LeCruset, lodge castiron and All Clad you could buy for $1299? The waterless is no deal and seriously doubt it is as good much less better than above mentions makes as well as many more. |

| My sister has cooked with waterless cookware that at the time was about $800 to $1000 don't remember for sure, anyway she has cooked with it for over 30 years and uses nothing else and swears by it. Of course she has also taken good care of it. |

Hello everyone, Sarah here.
Why would anyone pay over $1000 for a set of cookware? I don't care what it does, no way would I pay that for a couple of pots and pans. I got my waterless cookware set online where a lot of products are sold at wholesale prices, and if not wholesale, at least cheaper than most retail stores that are not online. I bought my cookware from the p. b. helms company and I think online they are called realcook.com. They sell at wholesale prices and the set I have looks and cooks just like the one I saw at the cookware dinner party. Get smart, people, shop online. |

Good quality waterless cookware sets like Worlds Finest, Maxam and Chef's Secret are online everywhere. You don't have to go a dinner parties to buy them. We got a 17 piece set and a waterless cooking demo video with our cookware set online and delivered to our door. We love those steam control valves.
Healthy cooking. See the Waterless Cooking Video below. |

| Why exactly is it called waterless? My mom has a set and has cooked on it for 30 yrs I know. I remember as a teen having to scrape it clean until my fingers bled, everything stuck to it! She bought me a set at an auction 10 yrs ago and I told her to store it in her attic. I'm not ready to give up my nonstick. That's for people who have all day to soak and scrape! |

| I bought a set called Foreverware that's waterless. It sells for around $225 all over the net. I really like it and I felt it was a great deal. |

| On 4/12/08 my wife and I went to our locale home-show in search of a great deal on cookware. We stumbled upon the only cookware available and that was waterless:( To our amazement the cheapest set went for $1695.95(8pieces) and the largest went for $5000+ (35-45pieces)?????? needless to say we checked out the web and found numerous deals for comparable cookware under $400.00. |

| I'm still scratching my head over this enchantment with waterless cooking. As far as vegetables are concerned, a good deal of the same thing can be done in a MW, which most of us already have and, if we don't, they can be had much more cheaply than these exorbitantly Priced (read: fish, as in sucker) cookware sets. Much other cooking requires some sort of moisture, whether it be oil or broth, etc. |

| Marketing, marketing, marketing. It reminds me of Cutco knives. If they could really compete with other high quality products you'd see them in retail stores where you could do a side by side comparison. A good salesman can sell salt water to a sailor. |

Hi all!
I love to cook and waterless cooking has changed my life. I found a site (cited below) that explains it well..."it is designed with multiple layers of metal to evenly distribute heat to retain more moisture. It is known for "healthy cooking" as there is no added water; therefore foods retain more of their vitamins and minerals, which they loose when cooking with water. Food tastes and looks better because it retains more of the natural flavor and color. Waterless cooking is also energy efficient because you never cook over high heat; medium or low only and the food is in a vapor seal pan which shortens the cooking time." Overall, very healthy and worth the investment. I agree, this cookware in stores is ridiculously high, but I found this site that will hopefully help you out too! |
