 Great Products and Great Customer Service September 25, 2008

I am extremely pleased with these products. I purchased this set primarily for the popcorn popper and the omelet pan although I have used the bacon/meat rack as well.
The popcorn popper works great. I just put in the popcorn, let it pop and use a butter spray later to give the popcorn a buttery flavor. The instructions suggest not using any oil (it may stain the popper) but I called Nordic Ware and was told a little would be okay.
I use the omelet pan for scrambled eggs. I have moved away from Teflon pans because they scratch and I don't want to ingest Teflon. Stainless steel pans require butter or oil or the eggs stick and can be a problem to clean.
All you do is put the eggs in the pan, microwave a little, scramble the eggs again and then put the microwave on one more time. The eggs come off the pan without a problem and taste great. You can add topping when making an omelet or just plain eggs.
The bacon/meat rack with splatter cover is easy to clean. You can use both sides of the platter so you can cook on a flat surface or a ribbed surface.
I have yet to use the egg poacher. I will try it some day.
The use and care instructions say the cook set can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher but I double checked this with customer service and I was told while I could do this it would be better to wash the products by hand. Since the products are easy to clean I just wash them in the sink.
Calling customer service at Nordic Ware was a pleasant surprise. I called twice and both times I got a knowledgeable agent who actually used the product. The company is based in Minneapolis and I am guessing that they actually have people at that location answering phones.
It is a rare pleasure to talk to customer service people who actually use the product you are calling about and can answer all your questions about the product. The customer service people at Nordic Ware like the products their company makes and are willing to give you tips on how best to use them. They are knowledgeable, friendly and very nice.
Essential microwave cookware. September 21, 2008

If you actually use the microwave to cook, rather then just warm things up and make popcorn, I strongly recommend you get some microwave cookware. This is a convenient way to obtain some of the most commonly used cookware all in one package. At the very least get a microwave steamer, they are great for steaming vegatables quickly. This package includes one.

The splatter cover is alot shallower than I expected, it would not cover my big bowls completely.
Maybe I just have bad luck, the set I received come quite dirty, many pieces have scratches on them already. The popcorn bowl has big and small cracks all over. But since I don't eat popcorn it's a piece I don't need, so I didn't bother to get a replacement. Did try to call the manufacturers though, but I guess they are a east coast company, no one answered the phone during my off-work hours.
The eggs sticks on the poacher, make sure to coat it with some oil.

Really good microwave cookware - bought a second set to give as a gift and a third set to keep for myself if the first set ever breaks - 2 years first set is still going strong.
