At Kitchenware Express we know that if you're looking at updating your kitchenware, going to university, or kitting out your first home, then you'll want to make sure that you've got everything you need to cook for yourself.  No matter whether you've been cooking for many years and love it, or only cook because you have to, you'll find what you're looking for here at Kitchenware Express.

Here's what we recommend.

1.    Saucepans are available in different sizes, materials and have different features.  If you're not sure what you need, then a saucepan set will provide you with the basics until you decide whether that you need a bigger or better pan.  Our favourite pan sets are Prestige Cookware and for those new to cooking and the Raymond Blanc by Anolon range of pans are ideal for those who are more experienced and know what they need from their pans.

2.    A kettle or toaster might not be the most inspiring item of cookware, but it will get a lot of use, and so you'll want one that you like.  With various colours and styles available, you'll be spoilt for choice.  We like the classic, robust and stylish Dakota range.

3.    Chef Pans are described as an all round pan.  A good chef pan can be used as a wok, a stir fry, a sauté pan or saucepan; they provide ultimate one pan cooking.  The This Morning, Circulon and Raymond Blanc by Anolon ranges are always popular.

4.    A skillet or frying pan has many uses in the kitchen.  You might want to fry onions, cook an omelette or bacon.  A wok or a chef pan might be more appropriate so that you can stir fry or cook everything in one pan quickly and easily.  The Prestige Essentials range is good for those new to cooking, whilst the Infinite Circulon range offers more features and performance and is ideal for the budding amateur chef.

5.    A pressure cooker can save you lots of time when cooking, and so is ideal for those who don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking.  We like the Prestige Smart Plus range which offers safety and convenience.

6.    A roaster allows you to cook your meat slowly and evenly in the oven, and can also be used to serve too.  Highly durable, and available in different materials and colours, you'll be able to cook the perfect roast every time.  We'd suggest the Circulon Roast and Rack which offers patented Non-stick formula.

7.    You'll also need to think about food preparation, so mixing bowls, cooking tools like spatulas and spoons, and serving bowls are essential.  We stock everything you need, to prepare, cook and serve your meals.

8.    A coffee maker will provide you with good quality coffee, and it tastes much better than instant coffee.  If you're a tea drinker, why not treat yourself to the incredible Fine T Tea Machine, and discover the benefits of green tea, black tea and white tea for yourself? 

9.    Cutlery is important, and whether you’re looking for a set to use every day, or a set for special occasions, you'll find what you need here.

10.    We know that value for money is important, and so we stock the leading brands, including Prestige, Meyer, Anolon, Circulon and Raymond Blanc, amongst others.  We want you to enjoy cooking, and to get the best results, you'll need the best kitchenware.  Instead of using cheap pans that will need replacing regularly, we recommend that you buy good quality kitchenware that will last.
