Yesterday I forgot my my rule not to flip to HSN on Sunday for fear that I might see the "dreaded presentations" of the pans by two women screaming on either side of Todd. Looked for my NOOSE twice.

Welllll, I don't know about anyone else BUT I bought a TS set of the Greenpans shortly after they were introduced. think I spent over $150. They are worthless. Anything I cooked in any of the 4 pans . I ended up everytime adding oil and everything still . I soaked for days, the pans stained ... I think it is so wrong that HSN still sells these ... Honestly, I was really excited about these but horrible. tried to called greenpan customer service. forget that. what's the point in a lifetime warranty. Back to QVC for the best customer service. SHAME ON HSN!

HSN probably has a contract with the company that manufactures the pans..and can't get out of it without a big penalty..
So they will continue to ram these unusable pans down our throats..until the contact is up..or they find enough "innocent people" to buy them and be with them....By then..poor Todd English's reputation will be in ruins..

I bought a 3 quart stock pot at the HSN outlet...for the cheap price I thought I would try them. I wasn't impressed. but atleast I didn't jump in and buy a whole set of the stuff like I did when HSN was selling Ultrex...That non stick coating came off within months and the darn handles kept coming loose...called Ultrex and, of course, the 75 year warranty wasn't as good as the paper it was written on.

Because HSN owns part of Green Pans, don't they?

I cannot stand to watch even ONE minute of Joy Mangano.

I could watch Todd 24/7 and not get tired of HIM! Surfing


Wow, you are right OK4ABLONDE!! HSN does have some kind of ownership stake in the Joy Mangano maddness, just like they do with Paula Abdul's jewelry. HSN does all the manufacturing for Paula.

I love how another poster said it's like watching Saturday Night Live! Joy is caressing the pans, Shannon is on autopilot like a bobblehead jabbering uncontrollably, and Todd is giving the camera the "come hither" look. He thinks he's totally hot! He's ridiculous with it!

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HEARD THIS, BUT JOYS COMPANY, MANUFACTURES THE GUITARS FOR ESTEBAN. WHEN I WENT TO HER WEBSITE. IT ALSO TAKES CARE OF CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR THE GUITARS. I COMPLAINED TO HER COMPANY ABOUT THE GREEN PANS. THEY FINALLY REPLACED ONE OF MY PANS. HOW COULD SO MANY PEOPLE CALL UP AND RAVE OVER THOSE GREEN PANS? THEY ARE TERRIFIC IF YOU BOIL WATER OR SOUP, BUT IF YOU BROWN MEAT A FEW TIMES IN A ROW, THEY STICK SO BAD THAT YOU HAVE TO SCRAPE IT OFF. WHEN JOY WAS ON THE VIEW (abc) SHE HAD HER JOY AND COMFORT BEDDING. THEY ASKED HER. HOW MUCH IT COST, SHE SAID $100. THAT IS BULL. WHEN I BOUGHT IT, I FOUND IT TO GET SO WRINKLED AND SO TWISTED UP AFTER IT CAME OUT OF THE DRYER, THAT I THREW IT OUT. I THINK THAT JOY HAS SOMETHING GOING WITH CHEF TODD. DO YOU SEE HOW SHE LOOKS AT HIM? ANOTHER THING IS THAT HOW DO ALL HER PRODUCTS GET THE HOUSEKEEPING SEAL? DOES HER RELATIVES WORK FOR "GOOD HOUSEKEEPING"? SOME OF HER THINGS ARE REALLY GOOD AND SOME ARE REALLY BAD.I HAVE HAD QUITE A FEW HANGERS, BREAK IN HALF. JOY DRIVES ME NUTS WHEN SHE KEEPS REPEATING "OH MY GOSH". AND SHANNON CAN'T MAKE UP HER MIND WHAT COOKWEAR IS BEST. LSHE ONLY CARES HOW MUCH FOOD THE CHEFS GIVE HER TO TAKE HOME. WHAT A BEGGER SHE IS. WHATEVER MAKEUP BRAND IS ON, IS THE ONE THAT SHANNON CLAIMS TO WEAR EVERYDAY. WHAT BULLCRAP. SHE MAKES EVERYONE GIVE HER STUFF. TAKE NOTICE!!!

The Good Housekeeping Seal means nothing other than they pay to have their ad in the magazine. Green pans are junk. I just threw another pan away. I made some apple cinnamon sausage I bought at the Amish market & yes the sausage is really yummy, but the sugars in the sausage turned the pan black & it would not come off similar to the pan I threw away when my daughter tried to fry onions. The coating must have a bad reaction to sugars in food. These are the worst pans ever. Another strange thing happens with the green pan soup pot. Don't try to hard boil eggs. I swear I've been hard boiling eggs for 40 years & this pot is the only time each & every egg cracks in the pot. I only put 4 eggs in with cold water, bring to boil & leave off the heat for 20 min. Every egg cracked so I thought well maybe the eggs were old. I threw them away & ran to the store to buy fresh eggs & it happened again. These pans are HORRIBLE.
I really wish people who post reviews use the product first. Yes they are pretty when you take them out of the box, but don't review them until you use them. I have no idea why anyone would give these pans any stars at all. What is with the 5 star reviews on the product pages? I mean really???

The trouble with reality is; there's no background music.

I think that they have Green Pans all day long so I won't watch HSN. They evidentally don't need my business as when Joy is on I'm off.

And Joy is back- why don't they talk to her about her sales tactics and how it turns so many off?

Peace!

10,000 SOLD that's $690,000 and its not even the afternoon yet. That is just one product HSN sells.

DANG! I need to find a product to sell on televistion. No building lease cost, no employee cost just a few min on television and I reach buyers all over the country.

They must make millions everyday!

Instead of making a new post about this put it here ,does Joy M have anything to do with the Green Pans or is she one of those people that loves to be on tv a lot? IMHO, if she has nothing to do with any product they are selling she shouldn't be on there help presenting it. Wish someone would hit Joy over the head with one of the green pans, Sorry if I upset or offended anyone.

Gave Green Pans as a gift and was so ashamed of their quality after they had been used. I have an autistic grandson and thought green pans would be a healthy way to cook his food-I was wrong they are throw aways.I did watch a few minutes today of Todd,Joy and Shannon actually looking like they were going to blow up if they did not get a chance to sing the praises of green pans next . Maybe there are others that like this product and that is fine but I am afraid I would advise anyone do not waste your money and what a shame for these people and HSN to continually sell this product.

While Joy oftentimes gets too chatty on her presentations and overtalks Todd and even the host, I do LOVE Todd English and believe in his products. I have his Green Pans and I enjoy them. This visit, I purchased the new pan that had a smooth side and then a grill side. I enjoy really any of the cooking shows on QVC and HSN. I'll even put up with listening to Joy just to see ToddDancing
