Anyone know anything about Masterpro Gravity kitchenware?

CelticRambler

My local (French) supermarket is running one of those "collect tokens and buy this stuff cheap" promotions for a range of kitchenware called Masterpro Gravity. As it happens, I need a couple of new frying pans.

It's the 28cm pan that interests me most, supposedly 40€ off with 5 tokens (I have 9 :cool: ) but Google's throwing up precious little information on the subject. Amazon.co.uk have a few of the items referenced, but marked out of stock, and the prices in £££ are higher than the supermarket leaflet's RRP in €€€, so I don't know whether it's cheap rubbish, or a genuine opportunity to get hold of some "top chef" quality pans.

Loads here. Doesn't look anything special

Yeah, that's what I've found so far - but all that I've found. No reviews, no other info anywhere (except behind a registration wall on the manufacturer's website) and not widely available for sale (compared to something like Le Creusot, for example)

Wondering if it's just made for this kind of offer ...

Well, I went and had a proper play with the pans today. Ugggh. Horrible sharp handles on them. :eek: Easy decision not to buy, and can't think that anyone would have bought them at the RRP ... :rolleyes:

Nisbets do the De Buyer Mineral B iron pans for €50, best pan I've ever used, and very non stick if seasoned correctly.
