Pampered Chef Products
Monday, January 11th, 2010When it comes to kitchen tools, cookbooks and various kinds of food products, one brand has made its mark and has been accepted in many homes throughout the world, the Pampered Chef, Ltd. This company began in 1980 through the efforts of its founder, Doris Christopher. They utilized the concept that was popularized by Tupperware, which was to sell Pampered Chef products to people, especially moms, during party plan events. The agent, who is recruited to sell the products, invites people they know to gather in a social event where the items are going to be demonstrated and sold.

From its humble beginnings, its popularity continued to spread as it branched out first in Canada in 1996, UK in 1999 and Germany in 2000. The Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Corporation purchased the rights to the company in 2002 and its most recent base for operations, aside from the already existing ones in UK, USA, Canada and Germany, is Mexico which began its operation only in 2009.
If you are wondering if the Pampered Chef products are good investments, here's a brief overview of what people are thinking about some of its popular items.
Bread Tube Scalloped 1565
This product makes baking more fun and creative. You can try to make breads and other appetizers in various shapes and forms. This may sound delightful for full time housewives who have lots of time in their hands, but if you cannot allot about 50 minutes to one hour just to bake the bread from this bread tube, you can opt for simpler tools. This product must never be placed in a dishwasher, but you have to make sure that you hand dry the equipment after you have washed it by hand. Do not misplace any of its three parts, the bulk with scalloped edges in a long scalloped shape and two end caps – the bottom lid and the top lid, which is different from the other end because this has a small hole where the steam is released when you use the product in baking. If you won't take good care of the tool and you won't wash this properly and dry it immediately after use, the tool may develop rust. For product repair and replacement, the product comes with a 3-year guarantee.
Rice Cooker
There are many great points that this rice cooker elicits from people who already have tried it. First off, you can get rid of the mess that the more common rice cookers come up with during cooking because this product can be placed in your microwave oven, and you don't have to worry about the spills. You just have to make sure that you make accurate measurements as stated in the manual that comes with it. You are assured that the rice will not boil over because of its double-lid design feature. You can also use the item for stews, soups, steamed vegetables or when you want to re-heat leftovers. Cleaning is easy because this is dishwasher-safe and the rice won't stick at the bottom after cooking. There are some people who complained that the item's top part becomes easily deformed when frequently used in a microwave. This must never be the case in the first place, so ask the customer service on the other end if the model of your oven could accommodate this rice cooker. If the item is still under warranty, this will be replaced by the company, but to avoid such a hassle, you have to make sure that these two integral appliances match and are able to work together.
Garlic Press 2575
This garlic press works great on ginger as well. This makes peeling and crushing of garlic very easy and fun to do. Its ergonomic design with its curved handles, make the item very comfortable to use. This is also dishwasher safe so you won't have any difficulty in cleaning the material. You just have to be careful in using this because the metal scratches easily, which may lead to some damage. The shiny finish diminishes easily when you run this often on a dishwasher. The parts are actually replaceable as the company gives you a 2-year warranty for repair and replacement. These can also be bought through dealers and lots of online options.

The process is easy and the outcome is great, especially the crust. You can also use the non-stick pan to bake cookies. This is a bit expensive, which is why not so many people are getting hooked in it, but this is the perfect armor for creative recipes.
Apple Peeler Corer Slicer
This apple peeler needs to be assembled before each use. You can adjust the peeler according to how thick you want the slices of the apple to be. It is better if you hand wash the product because only its blades are made from stainless steel. You can give this as gift to people you know who love snacking on fruits, especially apples and your friends who collect any equipment that they can use in the kitchen. The product has limited uses, so if you are only starting to invest on good and handy tools for the kitchen, you can pass up on this one and prioritize other more useful tools first.
Knife
The stainless steel knife from Pampered Chef is very durable and can last for a very long time. You can use this to cut meats, fruits, vegetables and other ingredients that you can think about. This comes with a sharpening case where you can also store the product when not in use. Aside from being versatile, most people love the fact that it comes with a lifetime manufacturer’s warranty.
Generation II Cookware
The product is great, and must be because you have to spend so much to be able to avail of it. This cookware package consists of saucepans with tempered glass lids, frying pan, casserole, steamer and a Dutch oven. This cookware is non-stick which makes both cooking and cleaning such a breeze. There is also a lifetime guarantee that comes with it, which is ideal for people who are still contemplating if this is a good investment or not.
Baking Basics Cookie Press 1525
You can use this tool in creating yummy cookies with your kids. This is easy to operate and you will feel like you are only playing as you keep on using this cookie press. You just have to be careful when you are making too many cookies because the love handles may get hot if this is the case.
Cutting Edge Food Chopper
This is small and handy, which makes it very easy to use and store. Some people complain that this is not ideal in chopping waxy ingredients and others say that this is hard to clean if you will not use the dishwasher. Aside from these, this chopper can be relied on for fast output and elegant appearance.
Stoneware
The main advantage of this stoneware is that it is able to retain heat, so you won't need to use extra oil. You must be careful though because the heat may burn the food easily if you won't check on it often. For some, the product is very heavy, but this contributes to its strength and durability.
