But, but...one of the sets comes with "one exclusive laser-cut American Cherry Wood Trivet"... I credit the guy for making a go of it. I bet he finds the niche market.

A guy could buy several classic cast iron pieces on eBay for that kind of scratch. If I was going to spend that kind of money on cookware I'd buy a couple more Le Creuset pieces. That stuff kicks a$$!!

That stuff is not only fuggly, it is STUPID spendy. They think way too much of their product.

I cook with cast everyday. Wagner Ware, Lodge, even Harbor Freight sometimes...
Wow, $270 for a 12' skillet ? I doubt they'll be around very long.

Not saying I'm ordering any...after all, I buy store brand pickles...BUT, purchasing said designer CI, in concept, does bear a remarkable similarity to buying a thousand dollar grill...

A little too spendy for this child. Guess I'll just stick with my Wagner, Lodge, Griswold, and Century cast iron stuff. L.W.

I enlarged the picture of a skillet that is posted on their website. It looks like some extra work went into the finish of the bottom; not quite machined, but smoother than the cast surfaces.
So it appears to be a good quality item with a goofy shape and the crazy price.

Thinking the NYC crowd that go to the "farm" in Connecticut on the week-ends to feel folksy will be buying their products. I'll stick with my very small Griswold collection.
