I was in my local Lakeland yesterday and had to laugh when I went to have a look at the reductions,there sitting piled high were 9 battered misshapen grande sizes pans.I guess they must have a lot of problems with misshapen pans then.Strange it's only the grande though.

were they selling them?? if so how much??

I had a double first yesterday:j I've never made bread rolls before ever, but yesterday I made 10 lovely rolls in my moska (2 batches of 5).
Thanks to all you helpful people on here:T

I also made a lovely big sausage and veg fritatta, first time ever and all cooked in the moska. It went down really well. The left over portion, that I was thinking would be a nice change in hubby's piece box. disappeared into hubby's tummy. Och well never mind he's away with 5 rolls, 2 lemon muffins and a little box with the left over sausages and a tube of tk.

Hubby has always said that we eat quite well, compared to some of his mates at work who go home to sausage and chips and don't know what a vegetable looks like, but he is noticing so many new meal ideas since I got my moska.

I looked at Remoskas in my local Lakeland yesterday and they are lovely,I am sooooo tempted to get one.The only obstacle is finding the money from somewhere :eek:

Although I live on my own,I do a lot of batch cooking...vegetable chillies,curries,bolognese etc. which I then freeze and I also do quite a lot of baking too.The main reason I want a Remoska is the saving on fuel by not putting on my fan oven or even the gas hob,so I suppose it would soon pay for itself,hopefully.Gas and electric prices have gone up so much and I have already made all the savings I can in other areas.

Ooh,spend £100 now for savings in the long run....decisions decisions

I did think about a slow cooker which would be a lot cheaper,but although I could make the chillies and curries in there,it would be no good for scones and cakes,would it?

Hi everyone,

i finally got around to phoning Lakeland about my scratched remmy pan.
I was going to do it as soon as we came back from our hols but kept forgetting about it

The lady on the phone was very nice and they will be sending me a new pan out today. They will only need the old one back if the new one scratches too so i have to keep checking for the first few times that i use it to make sure that it is ok.:D

If all is fine then i can bin the old one. They need to make sure that there wasn`t a faulty batch of them.
If the new one is ok then i shall probably make use of the old one by using it as a flowerpot in the garden or something, at least i won`t need to faff about trying to be in at certain times to get something collected.

So the other peeps that have had a problem with the coating on the pans give Lakeland a ring. They are really very good!

I had my new pan delivered this week and I think it is a kind gesture of Lakeland. However, I am still concerned that although the customer service is excellent, there does seem to be a design fault with this particular product for so many of us to be having problems with the teflon pan. I notice on the replacement pan that says the sticker is 'classic' quality which is described on the teflon website as an 'entry level' standard for an 'occasional cook'.

http://www.teflon.com/NASApp/Teflon/TeflonPageServlet?pageId=/consumer/eu/eng/housewares/cookware/cookware/nonStick/brands/classic/teflon_brands_classic.html

The Teflon platinum coating (used on the separator pan) is described as "a new mid-coat technology where added protective materials actually help protect the surface from abrasions" and this sounds as though it would be much more suitable for such an expensive item....

I think that it was great of Lakeland to offer a new pan, I really do, but if the new one gets scratched easily, then what.. I would be embarassed to keep getting in touch with them over and over. But on the other hand, even though the customer service is fab, I don't really think it is acceptable that the official suggestion is to use the non-stick lining to protect the pan. The non-stick lining is intended to stop bakery items sticking and collect spills. The idea of it flapping around in the bottom of a casserole doesn't really appeal to me....

I agree with e previous 2 posters on this one, I rang lakeland yesterday about the scratches on my pan, despite using the magic liner and melamine utensils, it is getting scratched and I use it every day. The assistant said she would send me a new remoska out and to ring and get them to collect the old one, I said it was a waste really because there is nothing wrong with the lid, just the teflon coating.

I wish they would make the deep and shallow pans out of the same material they use for the separator pan, it is much better quality.

I use the liner even when doing a curry etc and yes, it seems a bit daft having it flapping about at the bottom!

That is the only thing that lets it down, and for such an expensive item it should be better quality.

Today I bought a silicone sandwich tray (20cm) from Tesco, hoping it would fit my standard... and it does, absolutely perfectly... like it was made for it! If anyone's interested in getting one it was £5. The only thing now is... how to get it out when it's hot :rolleyes:

To get a close-fitting tin out of the Remoska, I use a strip of the magic lining stuff under the tin with the ends poking out for handles.

I know lots of people are having trouble with their pans but I just wanted to say that mine seems to be fine (although maybe it doesn't get as much use....).

If I were going to buy one now I would be a bit dubious because of all the comments so I thought I should just say that it's not automatically a problem.

Morning all

Thought I would share a recipe I concocted for chicken n leek cobbler, I have posted it elsewhere -but as it was done in r.e.m.e the remoska I thought I had better put it here too
