Who sells pans in the area with either welded or screwed on handles?

I DO NOT like the rivits through the pan, it makes them a PITA to clean and it seems like thats all anybody sells around here

Look up at Marshalls, they usually have something like that.

I'm looking for an 8" saute pan and found one there.
Got it home and once out of the package, the handle was heavier than the pan. Sitting level it leaned back on the handle and it took 4 eggs to balance it out.


Took it back :lol:

Not trying to start anything but just curious as to why this was posted in "the Ladies Room" instead of maybe "Home and Garden" or "Chit Chat"? :popcorn:

Hubby does the cooking most days & buys his own frying pans (goes through them like crazy) so I'll alert him to this thread for input.

Cast iron, my man. One way to go. I hate the others because they all have a tendency to warp up in the middle while cooking.

:roflmao:

I just checked -- all of our current frying pans have rivets. I'll do some legwork online & see what I can find. It's the least I can do seeing as how we're :buddies: !

Got a price range & are you willing to do online ordering? What do you consider "local"?

Sears?

Buy on-line & ship to store -- that way you can check it out right there & return if you don't like it. Says handle is spot-welded.

Should I keep looking?

My gawd, man.... what do you cook on?? A blast furnace???

:confused: that has rivits

Yeah, that's what I thought -- but the description says it's spot welded. Are they welding the rivets maybe so they don't come loose? Is that some new trend with frying pan makers?

Want me to keep looking?

My gawd, man.... what do you cook on?? A blast furnace???

Nope, just a glass top.

I know it's "rivited," but I use the heck out of my Cuisinart cookware and have never had any trouble with the handles becoming loose or falling off! I swear by these! The link below is just for the 8" skillet.

I use my cast iron on my glass top all the time. I think I remember the book that came with my stove saying not to use the speckled enamel cookware on the glass top. You know, like the camping type cookware...

Didn't you recently have to replace a broken glass top?

Not because of cast iron.

:lol: Sorry! I either hadn't seen, or didn't read correctly, your post about food getting stuck to the rivets. I've never had any trouble with food sticking on the rivets. :buddies:

The cast stainless steel handle is attached to the pan using innovative nonstick flush rivet technology - food won't get stuck around the rivets so the pan cleans up easier.

Rivets but since I'm the dishwasher at my house I can tell you it's works well!

I looooove my Anolon cookware. NOTHING sticks to it, very easy to clean. :yay:

My Revere Ware is pretty old (sheesh, but they still work good & look great after 22 years!) but the pans have NO rivets inside.

:yay: My niece is using the Revere Ware my mom had when she was a newlywed! Hers had the copper bottoms, mine didn't. We shined them up real nice & cleaned up the copper and viola! Good as new!

I just remembered - one of my pots' handles DID come off - this has been about 8-10 years ago, probably. I called the company and they asked for the numbers off of the bottom of the pot. And they sent me a whole new one at no charge.

My copper-bottom Revereware is over 25 y/o now, but still looks great. The handles have lost their sheen from tossing them in the dishwasher, but that's ok.

Aps, I cook egg whites every day in my small Revereware skillet. (I'll have to go and measure it, not sure of the size).

Rarely do the eggwhites stick. I use a a little Smart Balance spread in it while heating up and I'm good to go! :yay:

Mirro-Matic used to make what you are looking for Aps....Go check the Farmers market one day...they have good second hand cookware.

I have my Mother-in-law's Revereware (goes back to the 1940's) -- copper-bottom, beats everything else we've got, hand-down! Now THAT's good stuff! Try local resale shops or ebay. I am still amazed at how easy it is to clean up when dishwashing (no dishwasher, at least not an electric one -- ours is human-powered!).

Glad you finally found one without rivets. Let us know how it holds up!

So is ours, but its going to move out and go to college in a couple maybe three years.

So tell us..... which does Pan Lady prefer? Does she need the welded, or do the riveted pans hold up when she smacks you upside the head?

Just asked her.
after a brief test (thanks alot) she has decided that the welded is ok, but the cast iron is really the best.



anyone know if you should put Ice or pressure on an open head wound?

Since I got my new stove/oven, stove with the flat cooktop, I'm seeing how all my skillets are not level. :lol: Had to go get a few new ones that are flat underneath and balanced.

Just put something under the handle to prop it up even.

Before we got our new pans after buying the glasstop a few years back, It was a major engineering feat to cook anything.
how many eggs can you fit in 1 square inch of pan edge. :killingme

Just a general comment, not directed at you but your typical, cheaper, teflon coated pans or any lightweight pan will warp fairly quickly. You need to invest in some good, heavy-duty cookware with thick bottoms that don't warp. It's expensive, but it's worth it. We've had the Cook's hard-annodized aluminum cookware for about 4 years and so far, it still sits flat on the cooktop.

We've had the Cook's hard-annodized aluminum cookware for about 4 years and so far, it still sits flat on the cooktop. Got a few stainless steel that work great except the dayum frying pan. I don't really use the stovetop enough to warrant buying a whole new set of pots and pans. Most of my cooking is done in the oven and I love the convection oven. Other cooking is done in an electric skillet or outside on the grill. :shrug:

I hate my SS fry pan and and seriously considering throwing it in the woods.

Cast iron, my man. One way to go. I hate the others because they all have a tendency to warp up in the middle while cooking.

The only time I have warped a pan is when I stuck it in the sink and hit it with cold water while it was still hot.

I have OLD Revere Ware too. My Father use to work for them when it was located in Rome New York, both my Grandfather's worked for them too. It's amazing that the stuff is still around. You can get it pretty cheap too, at Thrift Stores or Yard Sales (mentioned in an earlier Post). It is by far..the BEST! A couple of my Pans are from 1949, when my Parents married.

I hate this glass top stove. I really wish it would die so I can replace it....most appliances seem to not last like they used to, but this one is 12 years old.

I think because I hate it, it will last forever.
