[quote=\"autumnbronze\"]Oh dear, schweppes Jie,


Why did I even step into this thread????

Now I am tempted. But I have a few kitchen gadgets I need to purchase first .......

Hi schweppes,

Went down to Taka to check out LC range as they were on sale.

Pretty good deals, like I saw a baking dish for $39 etc. The sale price is comparable to the Tefal I am using. But yes, as mentioned by some, I did find the cookware heavy. I didn't buy any. I need to really think about it lah .... I had just recently purchased a new set of Tefal cookware

I might be biased but I think Le Creuset is in a class of its own.

[autumnbronze]

Yup, I do agree at it's a class on its own.


But for me personally, I have a few factors to consider before investing in them (notice I said 'invested' ). Apart from the weight, one major factor is that my helper handles the cookware. I am not sure if I can trust her .....

But it's definitely something worth investing in the long run.

For now, I'll just settle for my trusted Tefal, which I have been using for the past 10 years

Yup! I agree. It took me years to decide to buy one. And I still only have one. And I am the only one to handle it.

I still haven't gotten one yet and the reason being that I can't trust my maids with them. Even if they aren't allowed to cook with them, they wash and store them and I just found a deep scratch in my brand new grill pan.

I bought a cast iron wok 20 years ago. It behaves like a Le Creuset but is much less fussy. I baptised it with 500ml of cooking oil. It hasn’t touched soap for 20 years (much like the Le Creuset too). It cost me all of $15/=. I love it too.
