State Fair Cookware vs. World’s Finest by Maxam

Have you ever attended the State Fair and watched a waterless cookware demonstration?  If you are like me, you were soon captivated by the sales pitch.  You are already envisioning using this cookware in your kitchen.  Then they mention the price which, depending on the composition of the specific set, can range from $1,500 to $3,000.  West Bend and Regal are excellent brands.  I am sure that the claims made by the demonstrators are all true.  The unfortunate reality, however, is that not everyone can afford to spend a couple of thousand dollars for a quality cookware set.

The good news is that you do not have to.  There are many reputable companies on the Internet that offer comparable cookware at a fraction of the cost.  One set to consider that is comparable to the expensive brands shown at the State Fair is Maxam’s 17 pc. 9-element Steam-control set.  Maxam even offers a Salad Maker with 5 cutting blades similar to that offered at the State Fair for a little over $100. 

The KT17 set is truly one of Maxam’s finest!  Cooking will be a dream with this set!  This 17 pc. set is considered to be one of the highest quality Steam Control Surgical Stainless Steel “Waterless” cookware sets that Maxam makes.  Each piece of this KT17 set is constructed of extra heavy surgical stainless steel and guaranteed to last a lifetime.  The 9-element (layer) construction spreads the heat quickly and evenly.  The 9-ply construction includes the following elements:

  • Chrome 
  • Nickel
  • Manganese
  • Silicon
  • Aluminum
  • Iron
  • Copper
  • Molybdenum
  • Vanadium      

The chrome adds longer life, the iron adds strength and the copper adds durability to this quality cookware.   The steam control valve makes “waterless” cooking easy.  You can cook healthier in this cookware because it eliminates the need for grease or oil in cooking. To use the steam control valve, start cooking on medium heat (never use high heat). Then, when the valve begins to whistle, close the valve and turn the heat down to low and finish cooking. The 9-element construction allows you to stack cook with this cookware. Begin cooking on individual burners and when the valve whistles, you can stack the pans to finish cooking. The phenolic handles are superbly styled and are resistant to heat, cold and detergents. This set includes a cookbook with instructions and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. Before you invest up to $2000 in cookware, consider our advantages and superior features.
Set Contents:

1.7 qt covered saucepan
2.5 qt covered saucepan
3.2 qt covered saucepan
7.5 qt covered roaster
11-3/8″ skillet
Double boiler unit with capsule bottom that can also be used as an extra 3 qt pan
5 egg cups
5 hole utility rack

High dome cover for skillet or roaster

  Some additional key features about this product:

  • Stack Cooking – The 9 element construction allows stack cooking with this cookware.  Start by cooking on individual burners.  When valve whistles, you can stack the pans to finish cooking.
  • Double Boiler Unit – the double boiler unit has an encapsulated bottom so that it can be place directly on your stove-top as a cooking utensil when not being used as a double boiler unit.
  • Size – A description of the size of each pot is clearly visible on the bottom of the pan
  • Handles – The phenolic handles are resistant to heat, cold, and detergents and have been tested for durability in ovens up to 350 degrees.  However, the manufacturer does not recommend placing the pots in an oven. They are really made to be used on a stove top.  This cookware actually allows you to bake food right on top of your stove.  Each handle is molded with a large eyelet that permits you to hang your utensils.  Also, for convenient storage, you can invert the cover, nest it in the proper pan, and hang or stack your cookware.

 

Shop around.  There will be quite a variance in price but you should be able to purchase this set for between $230 and $280.  Though the price difference between State Fair sets and those sold on the Internet is considerable, you will notice that, upon comparison, the actual differences between this set and the more expensive State Fair sets are negligible.  Maxam also offers the KT17ULTRA set that sells on the Internet for approximately $100 more than the KT17 set.  The reason this set is more expensive than the KT17 set is that it contains a carbon steel core between the stainless steel layers.  If you have an induction stove, then this is the cookware for you.  Induction stoves use a magnetic field to heat the cooking pan, which then heats the contents of the pan.  The cook top itself stays relatively cool.  With induction cooking, you need a cooking pan that will attract a magnet and has a flat bottom.  The carbon steel in the construction makes this possible.  A flat-top or ceramic top stove is not an induction cook stove.

There are many reputable vendors on the Internet that offer quality waterless stainless steel cookware at affordable prices.  Before making that purchase, shop around.  Most importantly, learn all you can about waterless cookware and waterless cooking.  Once you’ve made an informed decision, I can assure you that you will absolutely love preparing meals for you and your family.  To learn more about waterless cooking, you can visit our site—The Gourmet’s Cookware
