First off, I hate leaving this bad review because the pans are beautiful & they cook well. But they are cheaply made! I have used them twice now, hand washed, used silicone cookware, & basically babied them! The enamel chipped when making rice! So my smaller pot has chipped in 2 places upon the 2nd use. I'm so sad but I'm going to have to return. It co a t too much to already be chipping! So sad because I love the look & how they cook, just hate how cheaply made they are. Not worth it prices at all.

I've had the set for a about 3 months and they are NOT nonstick at all. Tried making a fried egg the very first time and it stuck. They only got worse from there. They are the worst pots and pans I've ever washed. When I wash them they still feel sticky and have Residue on them. I will never buy anything made by food network ever again. Very poorly made.

I would like to make a complaint against Sunny Anderson on the Kitchen. She is very loud & obnoxious. She also has terrible table manners, her bites are too large, she talks with her mouth full & makes a smacking sound while she eats. She is very off putting. All the other members of the program have manners & class. Sunny just doesn't fit in. We love watching the Kitchen, except for Sunny's segments. Also, her hairstyles are often extreme.

Please for the love that all is holy, remove her from Beat Bobby Flay, Holiday Baking Challenge and any other show she sucks off. She is overbearing, over actor and generally scares small children.
Any show she is on, I switch off immediately. She rides on the coattails of accomplished chefs.
Her credentials do not warrant her to be where she is at, plus she is scary and untalented as hell.

I just picked up a box of Colby dinnerware and there's a chip in the glaze in two mugs and one dinner plate. I don't want to have to continuously exchange them for new boxes, hoping to not get more chipped dinnerware. Is there any way that this can be rectified? If nothing can be done, I'll just return them and buy from another company. Hope to hear from you soon.

I was given a beautiful cast iron enameled dutch oven Christmas of 2018. I've been using this pot for all sorts of things, baking bread, making soup, etc, needless to say I love it! However the other day I was making broth in the pot and I noticed 2 chips of the enamel had come off and the cast iron was leaving a trail of extra particles in my broth. I'm wondering if there's something I can do to seal this pan again or if I could get a replacement. I really love this pan!

Thanks so much!

I purchased 2 sets of this dinnerware at kohls. Within the first year 3 dinner plates broke while warming food on them in the microwave. I just had another one split in half this morning while it was in the microwave for one minute. These are very poor quality. I believe that dinnerware set should last more that 18 months of normal use.

We bought these pans and love them, but wondering why the coating is peeling off one of them at the rim of the pan. The rest of the set is just fine. It has had no unusual wear or tear. It actually has been used less than the rest of them.So would really like it replaced. I have included a picture for you to see. Please let me know if anything can be done.
Thank you!

After subscribing for a few years, and enjoying the content and saving a few recipes, it seems to no longer be possible to get a recipe from foodnetwork.com without giving up my contact information. This is not much of a good deal for me but it looks like a great for FoodNetwork since they can now share and sell my information. This change is obviously the result of a management decision to get long term site subscribers (I am certainly one of those) to give up personal information that they can share with others in their network or sell to anyone who is willing to pay for it.

I looked at several pot and pan sets. Considering on the best one's I could afford. I alway watch the food network and figured that would be the set that I would buy. I have neve abused them only using plastic spoons and spatula and always careful not to scratch the inside. After the first few times using them. Everything started to stick in them no matter what I used butter, oil, ect. And only gotten worse. For my budget they was not cheap. And I still use them because I can't afford any others. But if I could I would buy another brand. And I hate to say that because the food network is very interesting and helpful for a man. Any responses would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Purchased this set less than 6 months ago, and after a few uses the metal on the bottom is not holding up and the pan looks like it is 10 years old!
The frying pans if you use oil burn and are not non - stick. I tried to make pancakes and had to stop and put the pan under cold water it was burning!
I am very disappointed.
This is not an inexpensive set and it has not held up to the warranty.

The chefs in Worst Cooks in America are repeatedly killing lobsters by putting them live into boiling water. This is animal abuse and is no longer acceptable behavior. The chefs are renowned chefs and know this is no longer the acceptable way to kill these animals and yet continue to TEACH people how to do this. If they don't stop showing this and start teaching the humane way to kill lobsters I'm going to report them to PETA.

Henson should be fired! Disrespecting the First Lady and the son is disgraceful! I don't care if your democrat or republican this man should not be on tv! I will boycott your show and magazine and pass the word on! He's a despicable person to even do this and especially to a child!

if you can remove Paula Deen then John Henson needs to go for insulting remarks about the President and his son. There is no room for this kind of nasty behavior I will not watch any show that he is hosting and I will start a campaign to boycott you. Thank you Alexia boothe 4 [protected]@gmail.com

I bought the red pot an pan set an the frying pans stick after 2 uses I cannot even mske fried eggs. I waited so long to get these pans I just wanted to cry. I do not use any medal on the pans. Theyvdo not stand upbto their non stick claim. Its is just tne frying pans the other pans are great. I would likecto have the frying pans replaced so that I can be happy with my set.

I never signed up for doorfront direct, which always is at the bottom of my driveway, right next to the mailbox. Anyone walking by can pick it up and take it. If its raining its soaked! I want my magazine put in the mailbox. If this cannot be done, cancel my subscription. I enjoy this magazine, but apparently some of my neighbors do too, or the workers in the area do, and they are taking it. please put my magazine back in the mailbox, this was a horrible idea, especially if you are away and the magazine sits out front and is taken!
