Anyone have a recommendation on good US made cookware? We a going to replace our pots and pans that are starting to come apart and are having a hard time finding US made. We are looking for the normal range of pots with lids and a few non stick skillets. I thought All Clad was all US made but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. Any ideas would be appreciated. | ||

Made In cookware. Most of their cookware is made in the US. The carbon steel pans are made in France. It’s all top quality stuff and the prices are reasonable. Made In cookware _________________________ 2nd Amendment Defender The Second Amendment is not about hunting or sport shooting. | |||

I went with the All Clad Copper Core which is made in PA. It's spendy at a couple hundred per piece, but it's good stuff. No complaints. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

We went with All Clad made in PA as well. Good stuff, no regrets. | |||

I've got All Clad as well. When I bought mine, all the pots and pans were made the US, but the accessories, utensils and whatnot we made offshore. | |||

Back in 1978, shortly after moving into our MQ in Rheindhalen, we bought a complete set of 'Wonderware' cookpans - Made in the USA stamped on each and every piece. They've been used every day, not all of them, obviously, but the main items, sometimes twice. They clean up like new and look to be set to pass on to our granddaughter who can try and wear them out. I doubt she'll manage. | |||

I'm an advocate of individual pieces rather than sets. Start with a great US made cast iron pan from Stargazer. Granted not all made stateside but we have selected pieces from All-Clad, Calphalon, Circulon, Revere, Faberware, Tramontina, and Sitram.

I bought a pizza tray from this company. Made in Ohio. It has been great. https://gsmetal.com/ __________________________ My door is always open to Sigforum members, and I'm always willing to help if I can. | |||

Which All-Clad lines are NOT made in the US? Can't make a blanket statement about a brand and dismissing without giving some perspective. Is what you found from them that says Made in China, just their price-point, mass-market line or, components like lids or handles? When replacing or, upgrading your kitchen tools, don't buy into a set. Sets are for gullible know-nothing newly weds, buy the components that you know you'll need and use. I cook A LOT, and all of my pots, pans, knives, tools..they're from a broad variety of manufacturers, all purchased for a specific reason.

I traded into a 12 piece copper core al clad set for about 1/2 of retail. Nice stuff if you get the top line copper core pieces. Have added a few single pieces here and there for my wife over the last several years. Usually when I have a few hundred in gift cards at Macy’s and don’t need any clothes. | |||

The first one that I clicked on looking yesterday was an anodized pot and was made in China. I move on yesterday. Pulled back up after seeing the recommendations and it looks like more that half is US and certain lines are China or Germany. Looks like we will need to piece together what we want as they come in stock. Definitely not looking at the sets. They always have things that we do not want or use. | |||

I bought a stargazer cast iron pan a few years ago. Really like it. The wife still prefers her well used Lodge pan. | |||

I bought Lodge cast iron made in Tennessee. I have been doing more and more cooking in it. I hardly use anything else anymore. https://www.lodgecastiron.com/about-lodge | |||

Aluminum is THE best as to heating up evenly. There are various grades and qualities of al. cookware. Non stick coated - same as above with one exception, it does not last forever. Life cycle depends on frequency of use and how you take care of it..do not over heat. You Will eventually have to throw them out and replace....yes, really. Cast iron is great, but not for everyone. Don't. drink & drive, don't even putt. | |||

Actually, copper has the best conductivity. And, avoiding cooking with and eating off of aluminum is a good idea...IMO. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||
