Customer Reviews of Nonstick Pasta Cooker
Customer Rating:   Summary: Great value out of a cheap pasta cooker Comment: We've been using this cheap pasta cooker for over 3 years, and it is great. It's nonstick so it's easy to clean, and the lid locks on so that you can strain hot pasta safely. The only problem that I've found is that if you have damaged or warped the pot in any way it might be difficult for the lid ever to work properly. But, hey, at this price it's not that big of a dealbreaker. You might have trouble getting the lid off a few times in the beginning -- just run cold water over the pot until you can get it off. After a few meals, it should go on and come off just fine. Unlike some other straining pot/pasta cookers I've seen, there's very little chance that you'll actually dump your meal out in the sink when you're straining and you won't need kid gloves to strain it. It's a great timesaver and worth the price. Customer Rating: Summary: Similar pot by Tramontina Comment: I bought a different style pasta pot by Tramontina at least seven years ago. I don't know if it is still available. I think it has held up quite well to relatively heavy use. My pot is a sauce pan style with a locking lid. There is a little wear to the nonstick coating up near the top, possibly from the cover or stacking with other pots. I would buy other products from this company. Customer Rating: Summary: Don't buy Comment: Used the pot and couldn't get the top off. Got the top off by prying the ears back and damaging the coating. The ears that hold the pot down are too big for the grooves on the pot itself. Customer Rating: Summary: Locking lid is a must!! Great Pot! Comment: This pasta pot cost less than 20 bucks and it is wonderful! All of the other pasta lids don't lock so you dump your spaghetti right down the drain! This is also teflon coated and it has held up well. I bought this pasta pot about 3 years ago and I have never used anything else ever sense. More Reviews Locking Lid 6 Quart Draining Pot Made of quality aluminum with Teflon® Nonstick Coating inside, this is a lightweight, pot with a lid that locks in place. To drain the water, align the lid with the handles, hold the pot by its stay-cool, easy-to-grasp handles and turn it over. 
Choosing Appliance -> Non-stick Pans We recommend having at least 1 high quality non-stick saute pan. It makes cooking eggs and delicate items like fish a breeze. It also cuts down on the amount of fat necessary to effectively saute. The best place to buy such pans is from a restaurant supplier. Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers A large number of freezers have eliminated defrosting by continually circulating the air inside the freezer compartment, thus avoiding frost build-up -- a feature well worth paying a little extra for.

Useful info -> Dishwashers Energy efficiency is of paramount importance, not only to save money on electricity bills but also to help reduce power station emissions that contribute to global warming. Look for brands with low energy consumption (energy efficiency ratings will be displayed in the showroom). Levels are now as low as 1.3kW/hr on some slimline models largely because of reduced water consumption. A delay timer can help take advantage of cheap overnight electricity. |
