Reviews
"I always use the bottom pan of the stack to cook stuff. like rice and the top pan for items that cook more easily like veggies, lentils,meat etc. Here are some combinations I tried. In the bottom pan I took 2 cups of washed long grain. brown rice with 4 cups of water (I like my rice soft ­ reduce the water if. you like it not too soft). Added 2 cups of water to the IP¹s inner pot, covered top pan with lid, inserted the ekovana pans using the handle and. set IP in manual mode for 10mins high and allow NPR. I have also used the pans to steam cook potatoes, eggs and other. veggies.While steaming and reheating, I do not add any water to the. ekovana pans."
"They are wonderful and perfect for this function resulting in some of the best rice I have ever made however after the first use I noticed a discoloration in one of the pans."
"VERY nice quality product!"
"Description said would fit 6qt pressure cooker, box says 8 and 10qt pressure cookers."
"I took note of the complaints about some black substance other reviewers had noticed around the pot rims and did find a small amount."
"These pans give me more versatility in cooking with my Instant Pot."
"This is a very well made product."
"I would be happy to revise this review if a replacement was made by the manufacturer in case this was not representative of their usual product since the other pan has not cracked."

Lodge ASHH11 Silicone Hot Handle Holder, Black
Protects hands from heat up to 450° F. Offers a secure, comfortable grip when handling hot cookware on the stovetop.
Reviews
"Using a looser grip allowing the front bottom of the holder to sit on your index finger and the rear top of the holder to press up against your palm provides a much better grip and control of the pan. This method even mostly negates the lubrication effect from modestly oily pan handles. And don't ask me why, but the multi-colored hot pepper design holder is a bit bigger and its interior just looks like the metalized cloth we've been using on the contact surface of cloth oven mitts for decades. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Okay, I will take for granted that if you're reading this you already have a Lodge cast iron pan(s). If you've used silicone in the past as a pot holder or oven mitt, you know that it is an excellent heat barrier and very very easy to clean and dries almost instantly. The problem with this holder is that it only comes in one size and is internally deeply ribbed (presumably to create an air channel and less contact for cooling efficiency). The 6.5" is so small that this holder allows the handle to just slosh around inside. Factor this in with the fact that oil/grease finds its way up cast iron handles and you have a real issue because of the internal ribs. In summary, this holder is fine for simply grabbing the pan and rotating it on the burner or for holding the pan as you stir its contents or for two-handed lifts using the helper handle (and hey, where's the helper handle holders???). For sauteeing or one-handed lifts (or even two-handed lifts by the main handle only), the poor grip (even lubricated SLIDING) of this holder really limits its usefulness as a handle holder. I've ordered the Lodge cloth-exteriored (but still internally silicone-lined) holders hoping for better grip. Hopefully there aren't any internal ribs on those holders or they'll get sent back prior to use."
"Understand the silicone holder will get hot but it won't be the same as picking up a hot iron handle of a skillet."
"I was hoping to find a cover to fit the handles, but these handles seem to be a little shorter than my pan at home. The handles measure 4.5"long x 1-7/16" wide... measurements listed for these covers is 5-5/8"x2", which is close, they are about 5-7/8"x2"."
"Be sure that the pans you planning to use it on have flat metal handles as these won't fit over the rounded rubberized style handles."
"Heat resistant, retains this property even when wet (unlike cloth which will transmit the heat when wet) and lasts a long time - I have silicone baking stuff and mittens I've used for several years with no signs of deterioration. Personally, I keep my handles outside the area of the heat source so that only radiated heat gets to the handle, not the heat from the actual source."

Reviews
"But, I've found that you can leave it on the handle just fine if you scootch it back an inch or two from the pan of the skillet, the holder will be far enough from the heat source to where you can still use it without taking it all the way off."
"This is made to easily slide on and off your skillet handles, not fit tightly on any one in particular. This is great to use while cooking on the stove-top, when you only need to grip the handle for a few seconds at a time during cooking."
"I was so close to tossing all my old, ratty, chipping teflon pans, but the problem was my cast iron pan is 14.5 inches and incredibly heavy."
"I still use them, but one of the draw backs of cast iron is that the handles get HOT."
"Now, I've used this one maybe 6 times - always on the stove top - since I bought it and now the white residue on the bottom, closest to the hot stove is really bad."
"An electric burner was fine and I suppose this would be the BEST use of the handles because the pans handles do not get very hot, but the gas burner was NOT fine and it became very HOT on your hand right through the silicone handle! A couple of things to note: 1) You can NOT keep the silicone handle on the pan handle while cooking (if you are using a gas burner) it will burn at the opening because it's just too close to the fire."

Reviews
"I was raised on a dairy farm, and chainmail was used in the creamery for washing milk bottles back when the job was done by hand--drop it in, swish it around with the bottle half full of hot soapy water, and it worked better than any bottle brush. My iron skillets and kettles are so well-seasoned I don't expect to ever have to use it to clean any of them, but I can recommend it for all of the above cleaning jobs and have no reason to doubt that it works well at restoring cast iron."
"I've always used stainless steel scrubbers on my cast iron, but they would get really dirty and they're really hard to clean, so I'd throw them out and get a new one each time I cleaned my cast iron."
"Discovering thus chain mail scrubber has made all the difference in the world to me in cleaning my cast iron pans."
""it works great on my Lodge grill pan, This is my second one, as my wife let my first one fall into the garbage disposal and...well...You know I love this product when I'm willing to purchase it again."
"I use this to clean badly baked and burned-on food from cast iron skillets and a dutch oven, and it does a very good job."
"I would recommend this Scraper to anyone that uses cast iron pan and wants to maintain cleanliness without stripping the surface."
"Useful little device, and easy to use; I needed nothing but the scrubber itself to clean a cast iron pan."
"I ordered the scrubber for a cast iron skillet for my son."

"And as a male server, I think it looks a bit funny. For me, I probably wouldn't order the product again because of this, but I also don't find it to be enough of an issue to return."
"Bought two of the 3 pocket waist aprons and used them yesterday for a garage sale with a friend."

Best Trivets

Lodge L8DOT3 Cast Iron Meat Rack/Trivet, Pre-Seasoned, 8-inch
When roasting meats in Dutch ovens, the Lodge trivet elevates your meat to prevent scorching and improve browning. 8-inch preseasoned cast-iron meat rack/trivet designed for all Lodge Dutch ovens 4 quarts or larger.
Reviews
"I like it equally for a triviet, as I want to protect my countertops and sometimes need to remove a hot pan from the stove to make room for something else."
"Put it on a medium burner, toss your sandwich in your skillet, or griddle, then (with tongs or welding gloves) plop this little trivet on top of your sandwich. If you need more weight, put some water in a saucepan and set it on the trivet - the "legs" on the trivet keep the saucepan from cooling the trivet and your sandwich is nicely smushed. I grabbed the trivet, put an olive on end over one of the small holes and pushed with my thumb - the pit jumped through the hole and left the meat on the other side. I grabbed a bowl, put the trivet on top and went through that can of olives in no time. Hint - the holes are beveled, and the olives sit very nicely in the bevel, but they don't pit as well - turn the trivet over and use the "flat" side of the hole."
"Just wish it had a tool to move it from burner to burner, but that's a small thing."
"Bought this as a rack for the inside of my lodge cast iron dutch overn and I love it, Used it to roast a whole chicken and it was perfect."
"Works exactly how it's supposed to the only downside I would say is that I wish it was lifted up a little higher because I usually put onions and mushrooms underneath my roasted chicken."
"Fits perfectly and just the right height to keep your meat off the bottom."
"Cast iron, works great as a trivet/rack, bacon press or induction hob."
"This item isn’t deep enough to really lift the meat up off the bottom of the pan."

Reviews
"It makes sense that some people may have simply overlooked this, and started boiling water, cook steak etc, on high heat and then been confused as to why things were burning."
"I decided to go with stainless steel because no matter how much it sticks, you can always get it out with Bar Keepers Friend, soaking or as a last resort; steel wool. Read all the reviews before getting it and noticed a lot say it does not heat up well enough, it sticks, it doesn't clean well, the lid is too heavy and the wok is too light, and to only use it on medium low heat to avoid burned or stuck food. I tried it on medium low heat and it had so little heat that I could touch the sides of the pan and it wast even warm to the touch. I finally decided to use it on high heat, which is how stir-fry is supposed to be cooked at and everything worked great. Whatever leftover food stains on the wok can be worked out with some soaking and Bar Keepers Friend. As for the wok being too light, that's generally how it should be as the method used during stir-fry is to lift the wok up with one hand and dish/scrape the food onto a place with the other. If there's still food stains, use Bar Keepers Friend. I'm happy with this purchase."
"However... the rivets that they used to attach the handles onto the cookware are made of cheap crap. The first time I made a soup in the stock pot I had to store the pot in the fridge for a couple of days. I don't understand why you would make a good pan, but attach the handles with cheap product that break down from simple food and washing over time."
"How a manufacturer van make a pot and handles out of stainless steel and use a rivet with a lesser grade of SS is I am sure not a design flaw but a part substitution."
"After it was done, I turned the heat OFF, took some on my plate and put the lid on to keep the rest of the food warm."
"While the pan is nice, I received a defective glass lid that shattered the first time I used it, while cooking with it."
"I commented on another review that wrote that the glass top shattered, but I feel the need to write another so that this can product can have a lower star review and to encourage people NOT to buy this product. This is a big safety issue that has seriously made me consider not buying any Cuisinart products as this should have been tested."
