Pampered Chef

[shannone]

Do any of you buy from Pampered Chef? I order from them all the time. They have so many gadgets and cookware. I buy a lot of their knifes and I recently bought a set that comes with a sharpener.

I haven't bought from PC in quite a while because it seems like I can get just about everything they sell from a B&M store for less. But, I do love my PC paring knives!

My sister-in-law used to sell Pampered Chef, and I have several "gadgets" from there. My favorite is the timer. It can count up, or down. You can sit it on a shelf, it has a magnet on the back to attach to the fridge or stove, and a clip so you can attach it to yourself. I use it for cooking, but also to time my son when he is working on homework. I also set it for 10-15 minutes at a time to keep myself on track when I am cleaning.
I also love their paring knives, mixing bowls, and the ice shaver is fun in the summertime.

I have actually never bought anything from PC. I think it's partly because they have so many gadgets and things that look cook but which I don't really need. I try not to tempt myself!

I have to admit...I am a consultant for them. I LOVE there stuff and LOVE to get it FREE....The new forged cutlery knives are awesome...I never would have spent the $$ on them before I joined but since I got to sample them for free I worked hard to earn them and now cant cook without them...I really like using them to cut frozen meat

Isn't Pampered Chef a bit on the expensive side? I have seen the products and they are not like the prices you see a walmart.

I went to a PC party last night, and it had been quite a while since I'd gone to one. I couldn't believe how expensive some of the stuff is. Honestly, I think you can get just as good quality stuff elsewhere for a fraction of the price.

I did order a few things, but couldn't afford to really look at some of the really tempting stuff. $67 for a stone casserole-type dish? Not quite in my price range.

I went to a PC party once and ended up buying a pizza cutter at the party. I have to admit that it was kind of expensive but it has turned out to be the best pizza cutter I have ever had. I use it all the time and have had it for years now and it still cuts right through the pizza without much work on my part. I even contacted the person and bought another one as a backup.

Some things are on the pricey side but they have guarantees on them....and last alot longer than the stuff you pick up at walmart...etc.
