Saladmaster Customer Testimonial: Albina's Story

Saladmaster Customer Testimonial: Albina's Story

From Albina D., Saladmaster owner of 55 years

My Saladmaster pans have served my family so well - it's been wonderful. When I was a young nurse I was engaged and saw a home demonstration. I really took a fancy to these Saladmaster pans, even though at the time it was quite a bit of money; but I was impressed and I knew it was a good investment and I was right.

My kids are amazed that they have gone through many sets of cookware and I still have this same set.

Saladmaster has been such good pans: they are stainless steel; they have the vent for letting out steam; and most importantly they have been so reliable. Even after this many years they still cook great and still look good.

I have found out over the years how good stainless steel is. The information I've heard talked about how stainless steel was good for you: it was lasting, and very reliable, and I have found all of this to be so.

The food I cook in my pans always tastes good. Our favorite recipes are stews; I've made many, many stews and the biggest pot is perfect for that. I serve them with dumplings and there is lots and lots of room for dumplings to rise.

My daughter heard about the oldest cookware contest and phoned me to say, "You have to enter this contest." She took photos and we all got so excited about it. It's been very exciting.

I've used my Saladmaster to cook for 55 years, first for my family of 7 and now for my 11 grandchildren; the oldest is 21 and the youngest is 2 so I have a lot of cooking left to do.


Thank you for your kind words, Albina. We hope your grandchildren continue to enjoy your Saladmaster stews and dumplings!

De Elaine B., propietaria Saladmaster de 48 años

Conocí Saladmaster en una cena en casa del hermano de mi amiga - las dos terminamos comprando un set. Aunque no me sobraba el dinero en aquel entonces, nunca me arrepentí. Me encanta y todavía cocino con las mismas ollas y cazos que compré hace casi 50 años.

Conocí el programa de la cena justo en la época en la que se estaba dando a conocer la información acerca de cocinar con aluminio y no me gustaba la idea de usar aluminio para cocinar. Me quedé muy impresionada con el tema de la salud. Me gusta mucho la idea de cocinar con muy poca agua y así evitar que los nutrientes de los alimentos se vayan por el fregadero. La verdad es que no necesito usar agua o cocinar a altas temperaturas con nada de lo que cocino - es una gran inversión. Incluso puedo cocinar asados en mi sartén eléctrica con núcleo de aceite, no necesito calentar el horno. Y me encanta la Vapo-Valve™, ya que me permite saber cuándo bajar la temperatura.

Es un set muy práctico. Conozco a personas que han pasado por 6 o 7 sets de utensilios de cocina y yo todavía sigo cocinando en el mismo set Saladmaster

Cuando nos mudamos de EE.UU. a Nueva Escocia, pensé que perdería mi garantía, pero no tuve ningún problema. Lo único que tuve que hacer fue contactar con Saladmaster, a pesar de que nos habíamos mudado y ellos se habían mudado, pero siempre han estado disponibles para mí sin ningún problema. Como nos mudamos de Canadá y vivíamos en EE.UU., nuestros hijos estaban acostumbrados a celebrar tanto Acción de Gracias canadiense como Acción de Gracias estadounidense con Saladmaster. Todavía hoy, a pesar de que nos volvimos a mudar otra vez a Canadá, esa tradición permanece con nosotros.

Han cambiado muchas cosas desde que me compré mi set Saladmaster. Ahora dan clases de cocina, eso no pasaba cuando compré mi set. ¡Mi set es más viejo que mi dealer Saladmaster local! Siempre ha sido un buen producto y las personas que trabajan para Saladmaster son increíbles - son tan agradables. Saladmaster se ha rodeado de buenas personas con conciencia que apoyan su producto y su garantía. Son unos utensilios de cocina maravillosos y una empresa estupenda.


¡Gracias, Elaine, por tus amables palabras y por compartir tu historia Saladmaster!

Saladmaster Review Customer Testimonial: Elaine's Story

From Elaine B., Saladmaster owner of 48 years

I was introduced to Saladmaster when my girlfriend's brother had a dinner party - we both ended up buying a set. Even though things were tight at the time, I've never regretted it. I love these pans and I still cook with the same pots and pans I bought almost 50 years ago.

When I saw the dinner program it was right at the time when information about cooking with aluminum was coming out, and I didn't like the thought of cooking in aluminum. I was very impressed with the health aspect. I really like the idea that you use very little water so the nutrients in your food aren't dumped down the sink. With everything that I cook, the fact is that I don't have to use water or cook on high heat - it's a great investment. I can even cook roasts in my electric oil core skillet without heating my whole oven. And I love the Vapo-Valve™ because it lets me know when to turn the heat down.

It's such a practical set. I know people who have gone through 6 or 7 sets of cookware and I'm still happily cooking on my same Saladmaster set.

When we moved from the U.S. back to Nova Scotia, I thought my warranty would be gone, but I've never had a problem! All I did was contact Saladmaster, even though we had moved and they had moved, and they've always been right there for me without one problem. Because we moved from Canada and lived in the U.S., our children were accustomed to celebrating both Canadian Thanksgiving and American Thanksgiving with Saladmaster. To this day, even though we moved back to Canada, that tradition has stayed with us.

A lot has changed since I purchased my Saladmaster. Now they are teaching cooking classes which wasn't out when we got our cookware set. My set is older than my local Saladmaster dealer! It has always been a good product and the people who work for Saladmaster are incredible - they are so nice. Saladmaster has surrounded themselves with conscientious, good people who stand behind their product and their warranty. It's wonderful cookware and a wonderful company.


Thank you, Elaine, for your kind words and for sharing your Saladmaster story!

Crítica Saladmaster

De Erma Lee M., propietaria Saladmaster de 52 años

Cuando compré mis ollas, acababa de salir de la escuela y enseñaba primer grado. El vendedor me dijo que comprara algo que me duraría - y tenía razón. Hice un pago inicial del set starter y también compré copas. Resultó ser un seguro para no tener que volver a comprar ollas y sartenes nunca más - fué una inversión. Y también una forma de establecer un historial de crédito.

Mis ollas Saladmaster tienen una gran garantía y es agradable saber que hay una gran empresa respaldándola. Mi madre tenía la Máquina Saladmaster y hacía muchas reuniones. Como esposa de un predicador, era genial llevarla a la iglesia. Ese hecho me dio más tranquilidad ya que al conocer el nombre de la empresa me sentía más cómoda haciendo la inversión. Mi hija ahora tiene algunas piezas también.

Me encanta que mis ollas todavía luzcan tan bien; son tan bonitas que quiero enseñarlas, así que las tengo colgadas de la pared. También me gusta mucho el dispositivo de la tapa, para una persona mayor es un gran recordatorio. Y la tapa encaja en la olla para que sea más fácil de almacenar, eso me gusta mucho también.

Creo que lo que más me gusta es la forma de limpiarlas - en esencia son antiadherentes, porque nunca tengo problemas para despegar nada de su superficie. Y estas ollas y sartenes también se pueden meter en el lavaplatos.

Estas ollas siempre se han mantenido bien. Yo rara vez he cocinado en otra cosa [que no sea Saladmaster] así que dí mis ollas y sartenes por sentado. Pero durante un tiempo estuve usando las ollas de mi nuera y no me gustaban, no se podía cocinar bien en ellas. En mis ollas Saladmaster, la comida se calienta más rápido y con menos calor que en las suyas, que no daban sensación de ser resistentes.

Cuando cocinas para tu familia, les recuerdas tres veces al día que mamá o la abuela los quiere. He sido muy feliz con mi juego de ollas. Lo único que he tenido que reemplazar en todos estos años ha sido un asa.

Lo que pienso es que [cuando sea mi momento de partir] aparte de mis anillos de boda, mis ollas Saladmaster son lo único por lo que mis hijos se van a pelear. Y mi hija ya se ha pedido la vajilla que compré de Saladmaster.

Y como mis ollas duran para siempre, estoy evitando que un vertedero se llene con ollas y sartenes - y así pongo mi granito de arena para que el mundo sea más verde.


¡Gracias, Erma Lee, por esta crítica tan buena de Saladmaster. ¡Nos alegramos de que tus ollas Saladmaster te hayan servido tan bien todos estos años!

Saladmaster Review

From Erma Lee M., Saladmaster owner of 52 years

When I purchased my pans, I was just out of school and teaching 1st grade. The salesman told me to purchase something that would last - and he was right. I put a down-payment on the starter set and bought stemware as well. This turned out to be insurance against never having to buy pots and pans ever again - it was an investment. And it was a way to establish credit.

My Saladmaster pans had a great guarantee and it's nice to know there is a company standing behind it. My mother had the Saladmaster Machine and did lot of entertaining. As a preacher's wife, it was so great to take to the church. That fact gave me more comfort in knowing the name of the company, so I was more comfortable making the investment. My daughter now has a few pieces as well.

I love that my pans still look pretty; they are so beautiful that I want to display them, so I have them hanging on a pan rack. I also really like the clicker on the lid and, for an older person, that's a great reminder. And the lid fits into the pan for storage, which I really like too.

I think the one thing I like the best is the way they clean up - in essence they are non-stick because I never have trouble with getting anything off. And these pots and pans go through the dishwasher great.

These pans have always held up. I have so rarely cooked in anything else [other than Saladmaster] so I took my pots and pans for granted. But for a time I was using my daughter-in-law's pans and I didn't like them; they just didn't cook well. In my Saladmaster pans, food heats faster and with less heat than her flimsy ones; they just didn't feel sturdy.

When you're cooking for your family, you are reminded three times a day that mom or grandma love you. I have been very happy with my cookware. The only thing over all these years that has had to be replaced was a handle.

What I can say is that [when it's time to go] other than my wedding rings, my Saladmaster pans are the only thing I know my children will fight over. And my daughter has already claimed the china I purchased from Saladmaster.

And because my cookware lasts forever, I'm saving a landfill from being filled up with pots and pans - that also makes it my token to 'green.'


Thank you, Erma Lee, for your kind Saladmaster review. We are glad your Saladmaster cookware has served you well all of these years!
