Scanpan Deals

2006-12-11T22:54:00.000-08:00

Allan from Keylan let me know about a deal they are having on Scanpans. Scanpans are a high end non-stick pan that produces a durable cookware. I'm always skeptical of the supposed durability of the non-stick coating, so I never use metal on my Scanpan (even though they say you can). I've had the 9-in. frying pan for over two years and it keeps in constant use (more than any other non-stick pan that I own) and I'm amazed at how it manages to stay non-stick. Most of my non-sticks lose their amazing abilities and become slightly stick prone after some use (about a year will do it), but the Scanpan continues to release perfectly. After two years of use, a few light scratch marks (cosmetic) and a single small pit has formed in the surface, but no bright metal spot has appeared and the surface still releases perfectly. If I was to recommend a non-stick pan, I'd definitely recommend the Scanpan.

Anyway, here are the deals that Allan sent to me:
*free* ERGONOMIC 8" frypan(valued at $80) with sets A20410,
20404 and
780800
for the next 33 of these sets sold.

*free* ERGONOMIC glass lid with each 8in, 10.25in and
11in classic
frypan. While stocks last.

*free* stainless steel roaster rack with each small, medium or large CLASSIC ROASTING PAN

Reader des reports:

Just picked up a

cuisinart DLC11 for 129.00 @ Macy's stores

seemed like a pretty good deal. The food pucher can be modified fairly easily to allow for removal while running as well. Just grind (very carefully) the tab at the botttom of the slot on the large food pusher. That's why I ended up going with this one. There is no switch on the pusher.

Amazon Friday Sale: KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer for $145 shipped

2006-05-05T09:30:00.000-07:00

After running the deals blog for a while, I've gotten a pretty good idea of what deals my readership is looking for and what they aren't. I was also hoping to get more people e-mailing deals as they show up, but that hasn't happened. I'll be posting only the deals that I happen to spot and only those products that I think might be worth buying (not all deals in kitchen), so there will be even fewer posts here and each post will probably have fewer items.

Today, we've got a really good deal on a KitchenAid mixer and a fair deal on a non-stick pan from Calphalon - both from Amazon.com

KitchenAid KSM150PSCL Artisan Series 5-Quart Mixer, Crystal Blue for $170 - $25 MAYSAVER coupon code = $145 (usually $270)
Calphalon Commercial Nonstick 10-Inch International Griddle/Crepe Pan for $25

As usual, there's a bunch of other stuff on sale that may or may not be a bargain.

Remember to use coupon code MAYSAVER to take $25 off participating products (total over $125) in Kitchen & Housewares or Bed & Bath.

Dyson DC07 Animal for $425 shipped

2006-01-06T00:09:00.000-08:00

This isn't kitchen related, but since I love my Dyson Vacuum Cleaner, I thought I'd bring up this deal.

Amazon.com has the Dyson DC07 Cyclone Animal Upright Vacuum for $450 (usually $500). Save an additional $25 by using coupon code: JANCLEAR Final price: $425 with free shipping.

This vacuum really does as its advertised. The suction is great and it really doesn't lose and power as the canister fills up. We had a Dirt Devil Featherlite for the last couple years (bagless) and we really didn't like dumping the canister since dust got everywhere - especially when trying to clean the filter out by tapping. Eventually, we dreaded this so much we just kept vacuuming even with the dirty filter. It became less and less effective. So, finally we got the Dyson (which I've wanted for quite some time because it's, to me, and engineering masterpiece). The canister on the Dyson dumps it's contents with the pull of a trigger - and it dumps straight down into the trash can, so no more tipping the canister over and pouring dust everywhere.

Also, the Dyson's power cord is extra long (almost 40 feet) and the extendable hose goes out 17 feet. When I plug the Dyson into the hall power outlet, I don't have to unplug it to vacuum the whole condo. Recently, we brought our Dyson down to my parent's home where we demonstrated the long reach hose. Vacuuming the stairs with the Animal Power Tool worked great!

Anyway, I whole hearted recommend this vacuum cleaner. (If you don't trust me, read some reviews on Epinions to see what others are saying about their Dyson experience.)
