(Pennsylvania):
"I've owned and used
Lifetime® Cookware for 16 years, just a youngster compared
to the number of years others have been using your product.
When I was a new bride (14 years ago), I could never share
'burnt supper stories' with my friends because I never burned
anything; not because I was a great cook, but because cooking
with stainless steel made it easy to complete a delicious
meal.
Recently I needed to replace
some handles and my father suggested I should allow him to
buy me a new set of cookware... I told him I would never consider
buying anything other than Lifetime® Cookware."

Holly found out, handles can be replaced very easily. Simply

Treva Strand
(Kansas):
"I grew up on Lifetime®
Cookware and have a very memorable moment to share that involves
your excellent cookware. I was in elementary school approximately
35+ years ago. We came home from school that afternoon to
find black smoke rolling out of the house. Thinking the house
was on fire, my older brother made us stay way back from the
house and went to investigate. He came back a bit later carrying
the large six quart Dutch oven out of the house. We took the
lid off only to find approximately 3 inches of black goo and
syrup like liquid with a small piece of bone in it.
"It seems that one of
my parents (I won't get in trouble by naming who) forgot to
turn the roast off before going to work that morning. Thus
the roast had cooked over 9 hours on the stove, reducing it
to that black syrup. The pan cleaned up much faster than the
smoky smell in the house and it is still being used to this
day by the original owner, my mom who is 74 years old. Needless
to say when her daughters married guess what we got for a
wedding present! I am happy to say that my set has provided
nearly 21 years of great service and my sister's l9 years.
"THANK YOU FOR SUCH A
SUPERIOR PRODUCT... Thank you again for your help and service.
In the era of throw-away everything it is so refreshing to
find that a quality product that indeed lasts a lifetime still
exists."
Sharyn
Stevenson (Pennsylvania):
"My mother bought and
hosted parties back in the middle 50's. My grandmother bought
a starter set from her. My mother had at least three parties.
When I became engaged in 1967, I just happened to be invited
to a party. But I did not need a demo, I just said 'I want
it.' My mother still has her cookware and it is still in mint
condition. Because of her parties and others buying sets,
she has many accessory pieces. We have loved the large roaster.
It is just great for 20 Lb turkeys. In the 45 years my mother
has had the cookware... she has only replaced one handle."
Cheryl
Shank (Pennsylvania):
"First I would like to
thank you for a truly "lifetime" product! Like many
of your other customers I was introduced to Lifetime®
Cookware following in my mother's footsteps. Lifetime®
was my first major purchase, as I bought it on an installment
program, while still in high school, some 30+ years ago! I
must say it is the ONLY thing I have that is still in use
after all these years, with the exception of handles and knobs,
and is in perfect condition."
Chris and
John Morton (Wisconsin):
"My husband and I received
a Lifetime® Cookware electric skillet as a wedding gift.
We love the waterless cooking! All foods taste better. The
flavors are marvelous. And clean-up is a breeze. Stainless
steel is the only way to go... for a lifetime of healthy cooking.
Thank you!"
Nina &
Benny Jiminez (Florida):
"My wife and I have had
the complete set of Lifetime® Cookware for 15 years. This
is the most wonderful piece of household equipment we ever
purchased. We are very happy with it and are grateful to you
for making and distributing real pieces of art for the home:
durable and of high quality and performance."
Laradean
Nerli (California):
"I am so happy I have
finally found you... My mother, sister, and I all purchased
Lifetime® Cookware about 27 years ago. We have all loved
it and enjoyed it all those years. It has been like a loyal
friend to us, helping us provide wonderful meals for our families
for almost three decades."
Pamela
Mark (Wisconsin):
"I received kettles from
my grandmother to use for college some 10 years ago and still
have them today. They are great and wash up easy in the dishwasher
(which is the biggest asset for I am now the mother of twins)!
Great product!"
Stewart
McLellan (Ontario):
"I have been using a
number of pieces of your cookware for about 22 years and have
been impressed for that long. In all that time I have only
had one small problem... that was dealt with promptly. The
quality of the [electric skillet] is second to none and has
been in weekly if not daily use for the past 22 years."
Cathy Woolwine
(Texas):
"I have owned a set of
Lifetime® Cookware for 17 years and I will never own anything
but this cookware. I love it!"
Alan &
Eva Patten (New York):
"My wife had purchased
Lifetime® Cookware about 20 years ago and when we met
12 years ago, she needed to show me how to use them. I never
used anything like it. We both think they are great. One of
the best investments we ever made. We need to know how to
go about getting replacement handles and add to our set. At
Christmas and Thanksgiving you can never have too much!"
Sue Ann
Lehner (Ohio):
"Sirs: I have had my
Lifetime® Cookware pans for more than 20 years. I love
my pans. They are the best investment I could have made."
Rosemary
Harmon (New York):
"I bought my set of cookware
27 years ago. Believe it or not they look almost brand new...
my Lifetime® Cookware is one of the best investments I
have ever made."
Marsha
Drummond Smith (Illinois):
"I would love to be on
your mailing list... I am so happy to have found you! I've
had this set for over 27 years. My father didn't speak to
me for two weeks after I 'went against' his advice and bought
the cookware anyway. I was due to be married in six months.
I'm sure you've heard a few of these stories!"
Judi Hempton
(Florida):
"After 25 years of owning
Lifetime® Cookware, I finally find myself in need of a
replacement part! Considering its daily use, I'd say I got
my money's worth when I purchased my cookware on March 20,
1973 (yes, I still have the receipt)!"
Sheba Kendig
(West Virginia):
"We have had our cookware
for 8 years and have been very happy [with it]. I no longer
have to constantly keep checking on the meal after a long
day's work. I just wait until the lids begin to spin, turn
it down and let the cookware do the rest. It is an excellent
product and I do not know how I cooked without it."
Harold
& Lorraine Guenther:
"We've had Lifetime®
Cookware since we married and are now married 48 years. I
distinctly remember my parents' reaction to our decision to
purchase this complete set. They thought we were crazy to
spend so much money on it. I have never needed to buy any
more [cookware] -- and my parents began buying stainless steel
themselves. It's clean, good tasting cooking and I use it
every day -- and with proper care mine still looks as new
and shiny as the day we purchased it."
Lee &
Marcia Bahr (Texas):
"We purchased a set of
Lifetime® Cookware around 1959 when we were both college
students at the University of Wisconsin. Marcia thought the
purchase was extravagant at that time. That's 39 years ago
if my math is correct! We have replaced many things in our
home, since that time, but the Lifetime® Cookware is still
going strong. Today, it seems we made a good decision to buy
it.
"The cost of ownership
spread over 39 years is very low. Cheap aluminum cookware,
taking into account replacements, would have cost us more,
by now, than we have spent on the Lifetime. There is absolutely
no reason to replace it. We probably could start replacing
some of the hardware, as it is showing some wear, but it is
still very functional. This would be easy to do since it just
screws right on. The Stainless looks as good as the day it
left the factory. Over the years, the cookware has been used
on gas, conventional electric, and now on a glass top electric
cooking surface. It has worked flawlessly on all of them,
thanks to the conduction plates built into the middle of the
bottoms, to evenly distribute the heat throughout the entire
bottom surface.
"We are entirely pleased
with our Lifetime® Cookware. Very few purchases around
here have proven to been as good a value as our Lifetime®
Cookware. Getting married, buying our first home and buying
our Lifetime® Cookware have all been some of the best
decisions we have made together."
Margie
Molnar (Pennsylvania):
"My husband and
I purchased a set of Lifetime® Cookware ten years ago.
My family and friends thought we were crazy to spend [the
money] on a set of cookware. It was the best investment that
we have ever made! My cookware looks like I just bought it
yesterday! I do home canning and this time of year my big
pots are really put to the test. There is some kind of sauce
cooking, spahetti, pizza, tomato or salsa always cooking.
It cooks on the stove all day long and when I go to clean
up, my cookware is done in a few short minutes. I still can't
believe it! And corn on the cob cooked in Lifetime® Cookware
is to die for. I've always loved corn and could eat a dozen
ears at a sitting, but I never realized how good it could
really taste. Cooking in Lifetime® Cookware is definitely
the healthiest way to cook and most flavorful. Thank you again."
Cleo Vitali
(Massachusetts):
"About 41 years ago,
I purchased a set of Lifetime® Cookware Stainless Steel
pans. I have been extremely happy with them. They have put
out many meals for parties, etc. They are still in very good
condition. Now I am interested in purchasing a set for my
daughter who lives in Sunnymead, California. Would you send
me information? Thank you."
Joyce Szudrowitz
(Wisconsin):
"I purchased my Lifetime®
Cookware 33 years ago. My food never sticks to the cookware.
It cleans up beautifully. The only thing I've had to replace
in 33 years are the handles. It does not look like it is 33
years old!"
Carol Swaner:
"I purchased my set in
Wisconsin about 15 years ago, before I got married. I love
it, and it looks as new as the day I bought it. It goes with
me everywhere, when I got married my husband-to-be had nothing.
I used it every day for all the years we have been married."
William
& Beverly Dunfrund (Illinois):
"We have had our Lifetime®
set for more than 32 years. It has traveled with us while
I was stationed in Germany and from duty station to duty station
here in the USA. It has provided many meals for us even when
the family was as large as nine... all in all it has been
one of the best products we have ever bought. Thanks again."
Mrs. Gerry
Grafner (Ohio):
"Your cookware is without
question the best on the market... As I have talked to others
who attended the same demonstration party that we did and
purchased the cookware, the story is the same, it is marvelous
and beautiful."
Joan Seprowski
(Wisconsin):
"I have used my
Lifetime® Cookware for 32 years. It looks as good today
as when I first started using it. My satisfaction in its longevity
has prompted me to recommend it to my daughter and her friends."
Betty Harstine
(New Mexico):
"Dear Lifetime®: In late
1953, my husband and I purchased a large set of your Lifetime®
Cookware. We were only recently married and I thought the
set was too expensive, but my husband talked me into it. I
must tell you that hardly a day has gone by that one, or two,
or more pieces have not been used in these near 42 years...
and I have never regretted the purchase... Several years ago
someone asked me if I purchased a 'new set of pans' because
mine looked so nice, clean, shiny, and not dented. I very
proudly told her 'yes' -- about 38 years earlier!
"So often throughout
the years I've meant to let you know how happy I've been with
Lifetime® Cookware, and for the tremendous 'present' you
sold us in 1953. All too often all manufacturers receive is
complaints... I wanted you to receive a compliment! So now,
I'm saying 'Thank you' for making such great pots and pans.
They really are 'lifetime!' Many changes have occurred since
1953 -- in our lives, in your lives, in the world... it's
uplifting to know that a 'seemingly small thing' like pots
and pans can still bring a certain joy and continuity in a
life -- something dependable and durable. I always know that
no matter how hard the Lifetime® is handled, it will cook well,
clean up great, shine up pretty, and be there for the next
use.
"Almost forgot, received
a stainless steel cookie sheet with the set and I'm still
using it also... it has outlived many others in my kitchen!"
