I bought my Copper Chef this year and everything I bought is working perfectly. But there is one pan that messed up and I need to send it back to get it replaced. It's my square skillet which was one of my favorite items. I’m sorry that I didn’t get the bigger skillet because when you’re doing pancakes, you need a wider pan. There was a larger size of that skillet, but I could still work with that one because I forgot I had the smokeless grill and that has the griddle on it. Still, that is a nice pan and I would rather just replace it if I’m allowed to.

I like my Copper Chef cookware well. I got a smokeless grill for me, and I also got one for my daughter. Then when I was on the site, I saw the other stuff, and I like the looks of it so I bought it. I use the cookware daily, on and on, and it does well. It doesn’t stick. On the square type pans, Copper Chef needs to look at it because the heating doesn’t go all the way out to the ends when you’re doing induction. It gets out there, but it’s not as hot on the actual outside of the pan like their skillet. As long as you have it a half-inch in the center, you’re fine. But you get right up against the edge, the edges don’t cook as well as the center. Still, Copper Chef is great. And I know they said don't put some of the stuff in the dishwasher, but it actually works in a dishwasher well. I’d recommend Copper Chef.

I’ve had the Power Air Fryer for a couple of months now and there’s so much more I could do with it than the regular air fryer. I had an older model of the fryer that didn’t have a divider in it and I could only cook one thing, and it had to be a small portion. I like the Power Air Fryer because I can cook three different things if I want to. I did a Hasselback potato. I had to score the potato but not all the way through, then put the butter over it while cooking it. However, the butter all ran down to the bottom of the drip pan. I tore up a piece of tinfoil and folded it and put it under so that the butter didn’t all run to the bottom. It sat in the potato or the potato sat in it and when I was done cooking, I took the butter and poured it over the top of the potato. I started with the potato then cooked the steak on an upper tray. I went according to the book, but I cooked it a bit too long.

We are on propane out here in the boonies and it’s expensive to have it delivered. We have three 25-gallon tanks and we fill them ourselves. It’s a pain and it’s expensive firing up the oven to reheat and do things. My daughter has a different kind of Air Fryer and I thought it sounded like a good idea. My wife recorded Power Air Fryer's video on the television so I saw their video. I called and they ended up upgrading me to the Elite, which is bigger. We've had the oven for a couple of weeks now and it's been a learning experience.

My husband bought me a red copper pan, but it wasn’t good. I have the flat surface, Corningware top stove, and it didn’t sit straight, and I didn’t like it. That sparked him into getting me another one, a different kind. He saw Copper Chef Cookware on TV and he ordered some for me. I had mine from last Christmas and we like it. However, I cook eggs in my one square pan and they stick. Normally, before this, I’ve always used spray, PAM, but the directions say, “Don’t use PAM.” I think I’m going to have to for that pan. I absolutely love my big square one for making sauces and things. I have some cast iron skillets that I use for things like cooking sausage and hamburgers and things like that because I figured that they take it better. I don’t know what happened to the little square one. I might have cooked some pork chops in it and it didn’t like it. I bought the little oven cookie sheet pans and I use it regularly for biscuits, and I love it.

We wanted a small oven for our RV and went with the Power AirFryer Oven for all the free stuff that came with it. I like the speed that it cooks in and the diversity. You can do anything with it. We also got the stainless steel racks and so far, we're okay with the quality.

We have a little issue our Power AirFryer from Tristar. Every once in a while, it doesn't detect that it was closed. Still, we like it so far. It cooks like a convection oven, but faster. It’s quick and easy to use. Plus, it cleans up nicely and all the parts inside work the way they were advertised. So far, we've done candy-covered nuts, roasted nuts and pizzas with it and it cooks really nicely.

My husband sent me the instant pot and the air fryer in separate shipments. We’ve used both of them and it takes some getting used to with the amounts of breading if he’s frying chicken legs or porkchops. There’s a little learning curve, like you should spray the racks with cooking oil so that stuff does not stick. We tried to do some hot wings and we fried them, and then we were flipping them to make sure that they were getting good coverage and crisp all the way around. Everything was sticking and pulling breading off. I said, “We’ll just need to spray it,” so that’s what we’ve been doing.

One of my granddaughters likes deep flat fried foods, and so I gave one Power AirFryer to each one of my daughters. I got the larger ones because I thought it would be better. The ordering experience was good, and so was the shipping. The Power AirFryer dehydrates and it does other stuff. One of my daughters said that she tried to make a cake in it, but she didn't think she could change the thing to bake. She said it only fries and couldn't be set to something different. She made meatballs in there, too. Overall, I'm satisfied.

The first time I have ordered the cookware online. And then this last time where I ordered about eight pieces, a friend of mine saw it online so I ordered some more. We love it, so we’re changing all of our pots over to Copper Chef. It’s non-sticking, easy to clean and very good cooking. It heats up very well. My husband bought the whole set of six pots. Then we bought the deep one, then he bought the extra large skillet, and I just bought five for myself. We own about 13 pieces, and then I gave two to my daughter. I got one for a daughter, three to another daughter and my son will be getting two for Christmas. I’ve been spreading them around. The last order I bought enough to give out as gifts. I recommend it highly.
